THE LAST TIMES EDITION!!!!!! GONE WRONG!!!!!!! April Fools lol Editor's Note by Mapthor and Soarz Hello. It’s your boi Soarz, helping Mapthor write his Editor’s Note at 2:50 AM EST on Saturday night. Hope you’re doing well. Heard about your new video, pretty clean if I do say so myself. Shoutout to my boi Givet for the mega promotion. You got big shoes to fill because I’m an egoistic person. Leaving MCME hasn’t helped my college. I still procrastinate the same amount, probably more. But it’s ok, we still livin' out here. So I’m in a voice call with Soarz right now and we just lost a game of Rocket League, and now he’s all mad at me and stole my Editor’s Note. This guy is saltier than the Dead Sea. Anyways, we got some good stuff...

Spring is in the Air! It got up to like 70 degrees Fahrenheit (21 degrees Celsius) here (Nebraska) today, that’s hot! Editor's Note by Mapthor Good afternoon ladies and gentlemen and welcome back to the most prestigious newspaper of all time, the MCME Times. Wall Street Journal? New York Times? Never heard of ‘em. Anyways, onto the news. The past two weeks have been…. really quiet to be honest with ya. Events Team got its official start up with Arch spearheading the Easter Events, the Aussie Edition of the Podcast was dropped, and Mershy kept shilling Yorkshire Tea in his Instagram interview. I really don’t understand the craze over tea, it’s just boiled water with more steps. I should probably shut up before more people get on my...

The Dawn of a New Era! Shen takes over the Times! Editor's Note by Mapthor So it has come to my attention that this Edition has no Editor’s Note. 12 hours till release and Shen didn’t bother to add a note, smh my head. Anyways, let’s recap the past two weeks shall we? As of the day I’m writing this, the Reunion Team hosted the outstandingly drunk MCME Reunion. Tunnels were dug, questions were answered, and celebrities were paid to talk about Minecraft. Despite that, we got a few new Guides to add to the workforce, a brand-spanking-new server video, and the new Events Team is up and running. Keep an eye out in the next few weeks for our upcoming Easter Events, as well and more surprises to come :) Happy sailing, Mapthor ~ Project...

The Good Ole Times! A Managers Tale! Editor's Note by mapthor Ladies and Gentlemen, this is it. The final Time's Edition under Manager Soarz. While most of you won't care about this, I just wanted to throw it out there for historical purposes. Anyways, onto the news. We've got a whole load of new promotions that past few weeks, another quality .mp4 from the Video Team, and the largest edition of the MCME Podcast ever recorded. Also, good old Mojang is hitting us with an increased build limit which means MCME is going to new heights in the next few months or whenever that update drops. But let's not worry about the future, we got to focus on the present because before we know it, everything will fly by while we're having a good time...

Festive Season! Tis the Season to Build! Editor's Note by Mapthor Hey all, Map here again. The past few weeks have been full of excitement on MCME with the Winter Events and it seems like everyone is having a pretty swell time. We just ran the Ice Boat Race yesterday and, let me tell ya, it might be the second best event of all times, behind the Mini Middle-Earth Race of course. I’m not biased at all, trust me. Make sure to attend the rest of the events this month. The team has put so much effort into these things that it would be a shame for them to go to waste. Happy Sailing, Mapthor ~ Project Progress ~ Anorien - Lead: @draonic_slayer | In Progress Report by Mershy Anorien is progressing but not in the area of rivers. The...

The Winter Events are just on the horizon and let me tell ya, it’s gonna be good. I asked Soarz about what we should be looking forward to this year and he replied with, “Snowy build.” What could that mean? Where could it mean? How could that mean?! Guess we’ll just have to find out this December. Hope you’re still around by the point, we love all our players here…. right? I hope so. Anyways! Happy Sailing, Mapthor ~ Project Progress ~ Anorien - Lead: @barteldvn | In Progress Report by Soarz9 Not too much has changed over the weeks, though Xmine is still...

BOOOO! Did i scare you? Spooky Season is almost here! Editor's Note by Mapthor Another anniversary, here and gone just like that. Even though the 10th has passed, I think we can all agree that it was one hell of a night. The whole community came together to celebrate one decade of MCME. We got to see the premier of the 10th Anniversary Video, made fun of Arch for being the most AFK player of the year, and even got to kill each other in survival. Many old members came back to celebrate and we even got a shoutout on Instagram from our friends over at Ardacraft (Thanks guys, keep up the great work!). MCME is a very special place right now. It has the power to bring people together in these hard times and never seems to disappoint...

MCME Turns Ten! But in like six days! Editor's Note by Mapthor Howdy everyone, welcome back to the Times. We are so close to the 10th Anniversary of Minecraft Middle-Earth. I’ve been on here for almost four years and it’s crazy to see how the server has changed since 2017. I’ve seen so many new builds, unique players, and one hell of a community change. If you’re an old player or just a newbie, be sure to cherish this chapter in your life. MCME isn’t just another server, it’ll become a part of your life, just like it’s done for so many players on this server. Go out and have fun. Meet some friends, learn how to build, and hop in some tours because you’ll regret it if you don’t. Happy Sailing, Mapthor ~ Project Progress ~ Anorien...

The 10th is Coming Get your party hats ready! Editor's Note by Mapthor Howdy everyone and welcome back to another edition of The MCME Times! We’re so close to the server’s 10th Anniversary which means some great things are around the corner. Old players are returning, big events are being planned, and something you won’t see coming. So make sure to stick around until October 10th to see all the surprises in store for the server! Happy Sailing, Mapthor ~ Project Progress ~ Anorien - Lead: @barteldvn | In Progress Report by Mershy Anorien is still awaiting the new textures to continue on its way.

Fall is Upon Us! It all comes tumbling down... Editor's Note by Mapthor Hello again fellow reader, welcome back to another edition of the MCME Times! I’ll be honest with ya, not much has really happened these past two weeks. With the Anniversary Events on the horizon, The Events Team is hard at working getting ready for October. In the meantime, be sure to stay active and stay happy on the server. Happy Sailing, Mapthor ~ Project Progress ~ Anorien - Lead: @barteldvn | In Progress Report by Mershy Unfortunately, with the departure of Oberanio, Anorien has been taken up by Bart to oversee the remaining areas that need finishing. Draonic has been planning farms on the eastern end alongside Xmine, Mithrilled and Maski finishing up...

Summer Ends, Classes Begin! Ya hate it see it happen Editor's Note by Mapthor Hey all, Mapthor here! As Summer slowly starts to come to a close, the Summer Events must do the same. All in all, these Events went extremely well and I’m very happy everyone (hopefully) enjoyed them. But do not fear, the Anniversary Events are currently in planning stages, so make sure to be on the lookout for those in October. Other than that, I don’t really have much to report on, so I’ll leave you all with some advice from good old Odin. When you have some free time in the next few days, dedicate it to yourself and spend some time alone. Whether that time be you playing games for three hours or just going on a bike ride, take it nonetheless. It does...

Swinging and Singing! The Summer Events are in Full Swing! Editor's Note by Mapthor Hello again, avid reader, and welcome back to The MCME Times Editor’s Note by Mapthor! As I assume you all know, the Summer Events have been in full swing this past week and a half. So far, these events have been great. We’ve had great Soc-Football matches with Archimedes, a movie night with Arothir, and one hell of a karaoke session with Xmine. So far, so good if you ask me. But, we’re not done yet! Next Friday (hopefully), Awaywind and I will be hosting our Mini-Middle-Earth Race. Also, be on the lookout for D3’s PvP Event on the 11th and Archimedes’s Moria Race on the 16th. Thank you all for participating in these Events so far. Hope to see you all...

The Seven Stars are Shining Bright! Let Us Start the Games! Editor's Note by Mapthor Hey all, Map here! I just got back from a two week vacation in the lands of Wyoming so I’ve been distanced from the community for a bit. But nonetheless, it is my job to bring you the biweekly Editor’s Note so here I am! The Summer Events are finally upon us with the opening ceremony, hosted by our lovely therapist Soarz, being scheduled for the 31st of this month. Be sure not to miss his lovely speech or whatever he has planned. Once that is over, the Summer Events will last until the end of August so be sure to take part whenever you can. But if you can’t make all of them, that’s ok. Just make sure to attend Awaywind and I’s Mini-Middle-Earth Race...

It’s That Time of Year Again! Get your swimsuits ready, the Summer Events are almost here! Editor's Note by Mapthor Hey all! Welcome back to another edition of Mapthor’s Editor's Note. These past two weeks have been hectic with a lot of stuff happening. We had a lot of great promotions, a handful of jobs, and even a teaser for the upcoming Summer Events! But, in the end, the good can’t exist without the bad. We saw the resignations of both LeBlanc and Dave, who both stepped down from their Staff positions. Thank you both for your hard work on the server, we’re all gonna miss you. To quote Harvey Dent: “The night is darkest just before the dawn.” While we may be going through tough times both on the server and in real life, we’re...
