Classic Games Fun

After much work and testing, getplayerhead.sh?Anna_28&16.png Anna_28 implemented an improved version of the Pigchinko game, and this time the games were held at the newly opened Phoenix Isles Stadium. Out of the many players, getplayerhead.sh?Unclehunter15&16.png Unclehunter15 wins the final game. Prior to the Pigchinko games, a few rounds of Spleef were also conducted, which getplayerhead.sh?E6V&16.png E6V won.

Another set of Pigchinko games was held, with getplayerhead.sh?eevee_27&16.png eevee_27 winning and receiving a Pigchinko Sceptre.

Separately, some Capture the Flag games were played as well.

Opening the Donor Vault at Batugus Labs Again... Twice

In the early hours of the celebrations, some people mentioned the previous vault opening, which prompted many other players to attempt a second opening of the Donor Vault, and, with help from getplayerhead.sh?Anna_28&16.png Anna_28, successfully opened the Vault for the second time in its history. Later in the birthday, a third opening was achieved by many more people.

Verico Post Person of the Year Award

While Verico Post could not create an ingame event this year, they still managed to award getplayerhead.sh?SlowRiot&16.png SlowRiot as the Person of the Year for MCO's 13th birthday, via a private voting session.

Faces Return

On the 13th birthday, some notable players returned for the celebrations. At 21:07, getplayerhead.sh?SlowRiot&16.png SlowRiot would log in to both hang around at Spawn, and to enjoy the Pigchinko games. At 23:00, getplayerhead.sh?Ted1246&16.png Ted1246 would join, for the first time in 485 days. And at 03:52 on August 5, getplayerhead.sh?AKSoapy29&16.png AKSoapy29 logged in, for the first time in about 802 days.

Skin, Build, and Hunt Events

Around the 13th anniversary, 3 types of competitions were held - one on Discord, one in-game, and one for both. The first, called "The Hunt" was hosted by getplayerhead.sh?Teaacup&16.png Teaacup and getplayerhead.sh?Void42_&16.png Void42_ and was made for both Discord and ingame, and was solved on 10 August 2023. The second, which was the "Celebrations Skin Contest" was made just for Discord use, in which people could submit version of their playerskins with the theme of celebration, hosted/judged by getplayerhead.sh?Void42_&16.png Void42_ and getplayerhead.sh?Luigifan100&16.png Luigifan100. The third, which is the 2023 Portal Build Competition, was hosted ingame at an event pad, with the hosts/judges being getplayerhead.sh?Void42_&16.png Void42_, getplayerhead.sh?Teaacup&16.png Teaacup, and getplayerhead.sh?Azeur&16.png Azeur.

4.8 Never Forget

While waiting for a second set of Pigchinko games in the PI Stadium, getplayerhead.sh?bawest&16.png bawest decided to have fun with their godly powers...

At 2:22:28 am BST, it happened. A swarm of charged creepers appeared out of nowhere and struck the people waiting, resulting in multiple casualties.
