Minecraft 1.4 and Map Reset Plans

Minecraft 1.4 is scheduled to be released on October 24th. As many of you know, a map reset has been planned to somewhat coincide with this. Keep in mind that it will take time (probably weeks) for Bukkit and our necessary plugins to update. Please refrain from updating or keep a backup of 1.3.2 if you want to continue playing SwaggerCraft during this period.

With all that being said, I'll outline the major plans for the reset.

• Obviously the map will be reset. Wiped. New seed, freshly generated. The only thing carried over will be Spawn and our crappy arena. Side note: If you want to build a better arena (shouldn't be hard) then let me know. Maybe if I get several submissions I'll put them on the website and have people vote.
• In-game money will be reset. Everyone will be set back to default (100). This is happening because of all the item duplicating that has taken place. Money has never been reset so all the duping that has taken place over the year has screwed up the money economy so much. Spend your money now while you have it.
• Ranked players will be able to transfer 9 items (plus armor/hat) to the new map. This will be done with the backpack plugin. Again, item duping has screwed everything up. Limiting it to ranked players, and 9 items at that, will stop (most) players from loading up alts with likely duped items and bringing these items back into circulation. 
• mcMMO levels will not change. Everyone will keep their levels. 
• No changes to obsidian/TNT will be made at this time. I frankly don't have enough time right now to test and balance things. It is a possibility in the future. 

These plans are subject to change. The date for the reset has not been set - it depends on when Bukkit and plugins get updated. 

P.S. I don't develop plugins so don't ask me when such-and-such will be updated :P

P.P.S I'm still looking for cool staff members. Hopefully I can find some to help after the reset.
