Happy Birthday to MCME, Happy Birthday to MCME, Happy Birthday dear MCMEEEEEEEE, Happy birthday to you all!!!

If you haven’t guessed it was MCME's 5th Anniversary yesterday and the grand opening of our permanent pvp server (that is currently down, #blame @Dallen). Time to get revenge on whoever has wronged you, so ready your bows and your blades -- it's hunting time.​

We have PVP!!! The ip is pvp.mcmiddleearth.com and it is a public server, no NPW required! Invite your friends! More information >>here<<.​

Some more terraforming happened, including 1/4 of a mountain. Some towns are being moved to make way for the nature.​

Hello everyone. Once again it is time for another fascinating edition of Anfalas news. From project member @kisos, it was stated that there was not much progress in this new region with the exception of more voxelling. There was also a new road that leads to what will be a small farm which according to Kisos again will not be completed until the terrain has been polished off.

For those that are interested in following my jaunt that I took through the newly modeled region, after last week’s locations I went through the site that will become a farm and followed the road in the narrow valley that it resides and crossed the river going almost due west where I followed one of the streams uphill until I came across yet another lake (my name pending) which is by far the largest in the new region.

Stay poised MCME, great things are coming in Anfalas.​

More things happened. A village which has been under construction for a while got a warp, /warp Tree’s Hollow.​

Ruining has started! Artists are encouraged to start working on the houses there. Try to match the already-ruined block, and be sure to ask @Mandos or @bender400 if you have questions.​

I would have to assume more voxelling happened. They also ran an extra-nostalgic job covering sand with grass.​

A whole bunch of terraforming got done, and this Saturday there was a nostalgic grassing job on the outside of the city. The wall and a few buildings have been started, and lots of wool planning is under way.​

Terraforming has occurred and is occurring. Nic has also started building and experimenting by the north gate of the city. I expect great things.

@Despot666 took this magnificent misty Shire shot to boldly brag about his awesomeness.

@Finrod_Amandil took some epic and beautiful pictures yesterday on the far-render server. I honestly could not decide which was the best of the 8 new ones, so here is the link to the thread Ultra HD (4K) far render shader screenshots and the post you should look at, assuming you have seen all the old ones, is the 5th from the top, titled MORE GONDOR.​

As you all hopefully know already, @Despot666 has evolved into one of our most active and skilled texturers; almost the entire dwarven pack is his work. But now he is looking for helping hands as his future contributions will not only remain in the dwarven packs but also the other MCME Resource Packs. If you are not sure about your graphics skills, do not worry: Despot has offered to teach you the drills with gimp and co. So, if you are interested in influencing the look of future MCME, speak forth through a PM directed to Despot!​

@Tyranystrasz has access to the MCME Facebook page and will regularly upload stuff there. For that he needs, of course, the very best of MCME, and for that he needs YOUR help! If you have a really awesome screenshot to share, submit it >>here<<!​

As we celebrate the fifth anniversary of the server, let us reflect upon the players, projects, events, and memories made in this time and look forward eagerly for events to come.

Since a quote is customary, I found an amusing one that relates a little:

A child of five would understand this. Send someone to fetch a child of five.
