<hr />
<div>Events are limited time, server wide features available to players of all ranks or players of a specific rank. They are hosted every so often, usually by an Admin or Mod and often have special rewards for the top ranked players in them. This page covers known events and details about them. They are split into two main categories, server events and building competitions. They are listed by category then chronological order (of the first edition held).<br />
<br />
== Common Events ==<br />
These events occur more than once a year.<br />
=== Beep Test ===<br />
The beep test is a parkour event hosted randomly by Minr admins, usually HC12345, and Minr moderators. It takes place in its own arena, and can be accessed by players of any rank. It is based off the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-stage_fitness_test PACER test], which is a fitness test occasionally held during physical education classes.<br />
<br />
During the beep test, players must quickly jump across pseudo-randomly generated parkour, before it despawns. If a player falls down or doesn't make it to the other side, they become "At Risk"; if they fail again, they are eliminated. The last person alive is declared the winner and the game continues running until they die or the test ends.<br />
<br />
The parkour begins easy; over time, the parkour gets more challenging, the time between levels decreases, and the amount of levels needed to advance increases. The color of the parkour indicates its growth in difficulty, starting with white parkour, then blue, and so on, following the colors of Minr's difficulty colors. <br />
<br />
There is no reward for participating in beep tests, but there is a leaderboard system.<br />
<br />
== Yearly Events ==<br />
These events occur/occurred about once a year.<br />
=== Ninja Warrior ===<br />
Ninja Warrior is a parkour event hosted usually around twice a year by HC12345. It always takes place on Saturdays and so far has always been hosted by HC12345, with occasional help from some admins. The event is based off the TV show that has the exact same name.<br />
<br />
In Ninja Warrior, players have to complete 4 stages to receive the title of "Ninja Warrior" without falling. Some of the stages have a time limit on them for additional difficulty in their completion.<br />
<br />
Until Stage 3, the parkour rises in difficulty making Stage 3 the hardest. While Stage 4 is not very hard, it has a strict time limit that allows no room for error, making it hard for those who have gotten to it to earn the title of Ninja Warrior.<br />
<br />
The rewards for Ninja Warrior competitions include colored prefixes, Steam gifts and more.<br />
<br />
=== The Amazing Race ===<br />
Based on a TV show of the same name, The Amazing Race is an event only for Greens and up that takes place 1 to 2 times a year. It's first host was HC12345, but it has been hosted by a number of different mods/ops over the years.<br />
<br />
In The Amazing Race, contestants run around the map of Minr looking for clues. The event starts where the previous edition of it ended, and includes a first clue at the start. Using clever thinking, knowledge of the map and sometimes online tools, contestants solve the clues which lead them to more clues, all until they get to the final clue which is supposed to lead them to the end of the race.<br />
<br />
As it involves map exploration, The Amazing Race requires good knowledge of the world map as well as a fair amount of general knowledge to be able to get to the finish. Because it involves exploring the map, it is restricted to Greens and higher. <br />
<br />
Prizes include special star prefixes for the top 3 as well as occasional Steam prizes.<br />
<br />
=== Purple Comet ===<br />
Purple Comet, or Purple Coin, is an event that is occasionally hosted by rmanimal and Alphaesia. It was held anually, around August, starting in 2016 to 2019. It then received its most recent hosting of Purple Comet V in 2021.<br />
<br />
During the event, players are given a set of maps in which there are hidden "purple coins", which are purple player heads. Players must look for the coins by doing these maps. Set into one of two teams, the players compete to be the team with the most coins by the end of the event. All players that found a coin by the event's end received a temporary purple asterisk prefix, and those that were on the winning team received two.<br />
<br />
Over time with new editions, the event evolved.<br />
* Purple Comet I started out with rmanimal and rickyboy320 hiding coins and running the event, which used to be completely purple. <br />
* With Purple Comet II, rmanimal became the sole host and changed coins to purple box player heads.<br />
* Purple Comet III was the first event to co-host with Alphaesia, who was instrumental to running the event. The at the time spawn [[City Spawn]] became [[Corrupted City Spawn]], and green stars worth 3 coins were introduced.<br />
* Purple Comet IV led to a more formalized event structure, and it was the first edition to have [[Cosmetics]].<br />
* Purple Comet V added SomePunWithChloe as a third host whom helped hide coins, a spreadsheet was made for tracking maps, and the event led to [[Black Water Spawn]] being created. It was also the first version where whitelisting for the event was done, as nearly 100 players signed up for the event.<br />
<br />
=== Egg Hunt ===<br />
Egg Hunt was an event that is mainly hosted by TheHexer. It takes place around April, Easter time. In the second iteration, Egg Hunt 2.0, a competition was held that had teams find eggs, and the winning team was ilovenons and niltiac. Egg Hunt is open to players of all ranks to participate.<br />
<br />
Egg Hunt has evolved into a large open world search area, primarily created by chayos, where the player searches for eggs. In Egg Hunt 2.0, there was competition between teams of two to compete in finding eggs in a round robin style competition in certain Minr locations. The winning team received the "Egglord" title.<br />
<br />
Years after Egghunt 2019 and 2021 were hosted, they were turned into maps called [[Egghunt 2]] and [[Egghunt 3]]. Egghunt 3 still rewards players with the Eggtacular trail for 100% completion.<br />
<br />
=== Minr Sightseeing ===<br />
Minr Sightseeing is a competitive event that has been hosted by Marrimars, TheHexer, and Thogin. The event takes place in a single day and has had four iterations. One on August 15th, 2020, which was won by Bailey06 and NoSi, one on February 27th, 2021, which was won by Jaabus and spolendina, one on July 7th, 2022, which was won by 0l_ and lendkaru, and one over a week beginning April 1st, 2023, which was won by KittyCatElite. Minr Sightseeing is open to players of all [[ranks]] to participate.<br />
<br />
==== 2020 to 2022 Details ====<br />
Players can form teams of two or compete alone. The competition tasks the players with identifying pictures of certain Minr maps then going to the exact location that the picture was taken to earn a point. Winning rewards the winning team a title, and all participating players are awarded a hat.<br />
<br />
==== Cursed Sightseeing Details ====<br />
For 2023, sightseeing was changed to a week long event that began April 1st. This event, which became known as Cursed Sightseeing, was unique for featuring locations in maps that required players to perform map escapes or get out of bounds to reach the location. This event also rewarded more cosmetics than the previous iterations due to the extra difficulty in finding and reaching locations.<br />
<br />
=== Map & Map Maker of the Year ===<br />
Map & Mapmaker of the Year is an ongoing event held annually since 2020. Greenies nominate the map they feel is the best of that particular year, and the map creator who has been the most impactful in that particular year. <br />
<br />
A forum thread is posted annually, typically by rmanimal, where players nominate up to 4 maps and 4 map creators that they think are deserving of the title. These nominations are tallied and then a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dzbBJgfvTDA&embeds_referring_euri=https%3A%2F%2Fforums.minr.org%2F&source_ve_path=Mjg2NjY ranked-choice ballot] is held to determine the winners.<br />
<br />
The winners are announced in a separate thread and the winners of both categories receive a special title as a prize. The maps' FFA(+) locations are also commemorated with a "Map of the Year" or "Map of the Year Runner-Up" plaque.<br />

=== Bring Me! ===<br />
Bring Me! is an event mainly hosted by [[Creators#natcrackers|natcrackers]] that started in 2024. The event is based on a party game called "Bring Me" where the host asks the participants to bring an item and whoever brings it first, wins. Specifically this event, the host releases a criteria list and participants have to look for unique FFA maps on the server that fit any of the criteria. <br />
<br />
The first event (2024) was hosted on the forums page but was met with issues such as poor search/navigation and the forum page crashing. The second event (2025) was then hosted on the Minr Discord through a separate forum channel to address these issues. While the first event only had two sets of 10 criteria each, the second one had a total of 100 and introduced a leaderboard system. Special awards and mentions were given for both years to highlight notable submissions since the event awarded no formal prizes. Out of the 13 participant groups in 2025, four were able to complete all 100 criteria, namely (in order of completion): Visuumii, andrewforreal, KittyCatElite, and eseehC. <br />

== Map Competitions and Jams ==<br />
This section lists map competitions and jams. This will also include spawn competitions since they are structured similarly.<br />
<br />
=== Spawn Competitions ===<br />
==== Spawn Competition 2016 ====<br />
The Spawn Competition, hosted in June 2016, was the first of the series of build competitions organized by Minr. For the most part, the competition was organized by [https://forums.minr.org/members/chillers.6/ Chillers], but with occasional help from other ops. Only greens+ were allowed to enter.<br />
<br />
Contestants were given their own plots in the end where they had Creative Mode access for the duration of the competition. They were allowed to receive WorldEdit help from admins, but nothing too minor that could be done without any help. After the entry period was over, the spawns were submitted in a community vote to see which one was the best.<br />
<br />
The winner of the competition was [https://forums.minr.org/members/minty.510/ minty1111], and his spawn was used as the server [[Spawn|spawn]] until it was changed to [[City Spawn]]. In total, eight spawns were created during this competition. They are:<br />
# BobTheBlob1's [[Astrology Spawn]]<br />
# [[Creators#rmanimal|rmanimal's]] Volcano ([[Volcanic Spawn]])<br />
# [[Creators#Alphaesia|Alphaesia's]] City/Town ([[City Spawn]])<br />

# Spiggral's Sky Castle ([[Sky Castle Spawn]])<br />
<br />
==== Spawn Competition 2019 ====<br />
With City Spawn having been used for about a year and a half, it was decided that a new main spawn should be made. The 2019 spawn competition, usually referred to as “Spawncomp” was fifth in the series of building competitions.<br />
<br />
The competitors had from May 23 to September 9 to build a spawn, with strict templates on the FFA and "Best Maps" rooms. The spawns had to be aesthetically pleasing and needed to take no more than 10-20 seconds to get to any given map genre. Unlike the previous building competitions, the winner to this event was decided by public voting, which happened for a few weeks after the deadline. The winning spawn was [[Spawn#Frozen_Spawn|Frozen Spawn]], made by chayos.<br />
<br />
A total of four spawns were created. They are:<br />
# [[Creators#chayos|chayos']] Ice Palace ([[Frozen Spawn]])<br />
# [[Creators#luckylukecraft|luckylukecraft's]] Chromatic Circuitry ([[Chromatic Circuitry Spawn]])<br />

The Puzzle Competition of 2017, sometimes referred to as “Zath's Puzzle Competition” or just "Puzzlecomp”, was the second in the series of build competitions. The competition was mainly hosted by Zatharel. The goal of the competition was to add more pure puzzle maps to [[FFA]].<br />
<br />
Just like in other build competitions, competitors were given temporary creative mode. However, this time, instead of multiple plots per person, the competition was hosted on one large plot. Entries were completed by August 1st and judged by a panel of judges consisting of 5 Minr [[Admins]].<br />

All competitors had to construct their puzzles on one large plot of land in Theta. Maps were judged on both gameplay and aesthetics, with judges giving both categories a score out of 10. These scores were averaged to give a final score for each judge, and these final scores were averaged to determine its ranking. The competition was first hosted by [[Creators#Zatharel|Zatharel]] before passing duties over to [[Creators#TheHexer|TheHexer]] early on. The final judges ended up consisting of [[Creators#chayos|chayos]], [[Creators#TheHexer|TheHexer]], [[Creators#spolendina|spolendina]], and [[Creators#ZombieKiler|ZombieKiler]].

== One-Off Events ==<br />
These events were made to be hosted only once.<br />
<br />
=== The Great Race Tournament === <br />
The Great Race Tournament, also referred to as TGR Tournament, was a one time event hosted in July 2014 by HC12345. It mainly revolved around the first map in the TGR series, The Great Race.<br />
<br />
In the event, players of all ranks were put against each other in a tournament-style bracket. They had to race in the original TGR map and whoever came first in the race would continue further into the event.<br />
<br />
The format started with round robins, followed by knockout stages later on. The winner of this event was crafterkid98. <br />
<br />
=== HC's Christmas Chase ===<br />
HC's Christmas Chase, or The Christmas Chase, was a one time event hosted on Christmas Day in 2014 by HC12345. There have been no new editions of this event ever since.<br />
<br />
The event was free for anyone to enter, even with a delayed entrance to it. It consisted of racing through 10 different [[FFA]] levels, with whoever beat them all first being the winner.<br />
<br />
The winner of this event was chunkyboy12.<br />
<br />
=== Tournament of Champions ===<br />
Tournament of Champions was a one time event hosted by corygolfanatic in March 2016. The tournament followed a similar format to that of The Christmas Chase and TGR Tournament. Players had to compete against each other in maps picked by the host. <br />
<br />
Sadly, due to time differences and other difficulties, the tournament was cancelled half-way and there was never a winner announced.<br />
<br />
=== Throwback Finds ===<br />
Throwback Finds was an event hosted in conjunction with the 10 year anniversary celebration which only Green+ players could participate. The event was hosted by SomePunWithChloe and rickyboy320.<br />
<br />
For the anniversary celebration, the Minr staff team opened a 2011 version of Minr's world, [[Zero]]. This allowed players to explore an old version of Zero. Throwback Finds tasked the players with a scavenger hunt to find clues that led them throughout the 2011 server, similar to The Amazing Race. Players that completed the event were rewarded with the "Throwback Hunter" title.<br />
<br />
=== Minr Chess Tourney 2.0 ===<br />
A chess tournament by [[Creators#AverageIPA|AverageIPA]] and [[Creators#BoggledToggo|BoggledToggo]] was hosted from August 12th to October 9th, 2023. Competitors were split into four brackets based on their online ratings and played in a double elimination format. The winner of each bracket received a Grandmaster Title, and all participants received a Participation Crown.<br />

Players can earn both individual and team points by participating in the events. <br />
<br />
Participants who earned at least 1 point during the event got a commemorative cosmetic hat in the color of the winning team while participants who earned at least 50 points got an additional "Made A Splash" cosmetic title.<br />
<br />
The winner of this event was Team Amethyst with 2673 points, followed by Team Amber with 2653 points and Team Sapphire with 2078 points in last place.<br />

=== DKPK Speedrunning Tournament ===<br />
The DKPK Speedrunning Tournament was a [[Discord]] hosted tournament by [[Creators#masts|masts]] and [[Creators#duckle|duckle]] where speedrunners competed to complete five [[maps]] made for the event with the fastest times possible.<br />
<br />
Across five weekends, players could join a sign in the events section of [[spawn]] to warp into a competition map. They then had 48 hours to achieve the fastest time possible on the map, done by running from the starting line to the finishing line noted by black and white concrete in the maps themselves. These times were rounded down to the nearest tick (increments of 50ms) and saved to a leaderboard that shows the top ten in every map.<br />
<br />
For the first four maps ([[Xen]], [[Crimson Keep]], [[Ice Cap]], and [[Stockpile]]), anyone could participate to get the top times. For the final map, [[Vezzano Ligure]], only the top ten players based on placement could advance. These were calculated based on the player's best three maps. The times in the final map determined overall placement for the top ten, and the top three received $25 USD Steam gift cards.<br />
<br />
==== Tournament Maps ====<br />
Five maps were made for the tournament, each created by masts and duckle.<br />
* [[Xen]]<br />
* [[Crimson Keep]]<br />
* [[Ice Cap]]<br />
* [[Stockpile]]<br />
* [[Vezzano Ligure]]<br />

=== Minr JetLag: Hide and Seek ===<br />
A bracket tournament organized by [[Creators#BoggledToggo|BoggledToggo]] and [[Creators#ManWithRaft|ManWithRaft]] inspired by its namesake (Hide and Seek YouTube series by Jet Lag: The Game). Each match consists of four hunts, with each pair hunting each of the other team's members once. Competitors sign up in teams of two and are placed into a single-elimination bracket. Winners are determined by longest total hiding time. <br />
<br />
The tournament was hosted on a dedicated server ran by the host and uses the [https://modrinth.com/mod/hide+seek Hide and Seek mod] coded by EightSidedSquare. <br />
<br />
The summary of the matchups can be viewed in this [https://challonge.com/minrjetlag Challonge link]. The winner of this event were Yoghurrt & GizzeMisse.<br />

<hr />
<div>Events are limited time, server wide features available to players of all ranks or players of a specific rank. They are hosted every so often, usually by an Admin or Mod and often have special rewards for the top ranked players in them. This page covers known events and details about them. They are split into two main categories, server events and building competitions. They are listed by category then chronological order (of the first edition held).<br />
<br />
== Common Events ==<br />
These events occur more than once a year.<br />
=== Beep Test ===<br />
The beep test is a parkour event hosted randomly by Minr admins, usually HC12345, and Minr moderators. It takes place in its own arena, and can be accessed by players of any rank. It is based off the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-stage_fitness_test PACER test], which is a fitness test occasionally held during physical education classes.<br />
<br />
During the beep test, players must quickly jump across pseudo-randomly generated parkour, before it despawns. If a player falls down or doesn't make it to the other side, they become "At Risk"; if they fail again, they are eliminated. The last person alive is declared the winner and the game continues running until they die or the test ends.<br />
<br />
The parkour begins easy; over time, the parkour gets more challenging, the time between levels decreases, and the amount of levels needed to advance increases. The color of the parkour indicates its growth in difficulty, starting with white parkour, then blue, and so on, following the colors of Minr's difficulty colors. <br />
<br />
There is no reward for participating in beep tests, but there is a leaderboard system.<br />
<br />
== Yearly Events ==<br />
These events occur/occurred about once a year.<br />
=== Ninja Warrior ===<br />
Ninja Warrior is a parkour event hosted usually around twice a year by HC12345. It always takes place on Saturdays and so far has always been hosted by HC12345, with occasional help from some admins. The event is based off the TV show that has the exact same name.<br />
<br />
In Ninja Warrior, players have to complete 4 stages to receive the title of "Ninja Warrior" without falling. Some of the stages have a time limit on them for additional difficulty in their completion.<br />
<br />
Until Stage 3, the parkour rises in difficulty making Stage 3 the hardest. While Stage 4 is not very hard, it has a strict time limit that allows no room for error, making it hard for those who have gotten to it to earn the title of Ninja Warrior.<br />
<br />
The rewards for Ninja Warrior competitions include colored prefixes, Steam gifts and more.<br />
<br />
=== The Amazing Race ===<br />
Based on a TV show of the same name, The Amazing Race is an event only for Greens and up that takes place 1 to 2 times a year. It's first host was HC12345, but it has been hosted by a number of different mods/ops over the years.<br />
<br />
In The Amazing Race, contestants run around the map of Minr looking for clues. The event starts where the previous edition of it ended, and includes a first clue at the start. Using clever thinking, knowledge of the map and sometimes online tools, contestants solve the clues which lead them to more clues, all until they get to the final clue which is supposed to lead them to the end of the race.<br />
<br />
As it involves map exploration, The Amazing Race requires good knowledge of the world map as well as a fair amount of general knowledge to be able to get to the finish. Because it involves exploring the map, it is restricted to Greens and higher. <br />
<br />
Prizes include special star prefixes for the top 3 as well as occasional Steam prizes.<br />
<br />
=== Purple Comet ===<br />
Purple Comet, or Purple Coin, is an event that is occasionally hosted by rmanimal and Alphaesia. It was held anually, around August, starting in 2016 to 2019. It then received its most recent hosting of Purple Comet V in 2021.<br />
<br />
During the event, players are given a set of maps in which there are hidden "purple coins", which are purple player heads. Players must look for the coins by doing these maps. Set into one of two teams, the players compete to be the team with the most coins by the end of the event. All players that found a coin by the event's end received a temporary purple asterisk prefix, and those that were on the winning team received two.<br />
<br />
Over time with new editions, the event evolved.<br />
* Purple Comet I started out with rmanimal and rickyboy320 hiding coins and running the event, which used to be completely purple. <br />
* With Purple Comet II, rmanimal became the sole host and changed coins to purple box player heads.<br />
* Purple Comet III was the first event to co-host with Alphaesia, who was instrumental to running the event. The at the time spawn [[City Spawn]] became [[Corrupted City Spawn]], and green stars worth 3 coins were introduced.<br />
* Purple Comet IV led to a more formalized event structure, and it was the first edition to have [[Cosmetics]].<br />
* Purple Comet V added SomePunWithChloe as a third host whom helped hide coins, a spreadsheet was made for tracking maps, and the event led to [[Black Water Spawn]] being created. It was also the first version where whitelisting for the event was done, as nearly 100 players signed up for the event.<br />
<br />
=== Egg Hunt ===<br />
Egg Hunt was an event that is mainly hosted by TheHexer. It takes place around April, Easter time. In the second iteration, Egg Hunt 2.0, a competition was held that had teams find eggs, and the winning team was ilovenons and niltiac. Egg Hunt is open to players of all ranks to participate.<br />
<br />
Egg Hunt has evolved into a large open world search area, primarily created by chayos, where the player searches for eggs. In Egg Hunt 2.0, there was competition between teams of two to compete in finding eggs in a round robin style competition in certain Minr locations. The winning team received the "Egglord" title.<br />
<br />
Years after Egghunt 2019 and 2021 were hosted, they were turned into maps called [[Egghunt 2]] and [[Egghunt 3]]. Egghunt 3 still rewards players with the Eggtacular trail for 100% completion.<br />
<br />
=== Minr Sightseeing ===<br />
Minr Sightseeing is a competitive event that has been hosted by Marrimars, TheHexer, and Thogin. The event takes place in a single day and has had four iterations. One on August 15th, 2020, which was won by Bailey06 and NoSi, one on February 27th, 2021, which was won by Jaabus and spolendina, one on July 7th, 2022, which was won by 0l_ and lendkaru, and one over a week beginning April 1st, 2023, which was won by KittyCatElite. Minr Sightseeing is open to players of all [[ranks]] to participate.<br />
<br />
==== 2020 to 2022 Details ====<br />
Players can form teams of two or compete alone. The competition tasks the players with identifying pictures of certain Minr maps then going to the exact location that the picture was taken to earn a point. Winning rewards the winning team a title, and all participating players are awarded a hat.<br />
<br />
==== Cursed Sightseeing Details ====<br />
For 2023, sightseeing was changed to a week long event that began April 1st. This event, which became known as Cursed Sightseeing, was unique for featuring locations in maps that required players to perform map escapes or get out of bounds to reach the location. This event also rewarded more cosmetics than the previous iterations due to the extra difficulty in finding and reaching locations.<br />
<br />
=== Map & Map Maker of the Year ===<br />
Map & Mapmaker of the Year is an ongoing event held annually since 2020. Greenies nominate the map they feel is the best of that particular year, and the map creator who has been the most impactful in that particular year. <br />
<br />
A forum thread is posted annually, typically by rmanimal, where players nominate up to 4 maps and 4 map creators that they think are deserving of the title. These nominations are tallied and then a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dzbBJgfvTDA&embeds_referring_euri=https%3A%2F%2Fforums.minr.org%2F&source_ve_path=Mjg2NjY ranked-choice ballot] is held to determine the winners.<br />
<br />
The winners are announced in a separate thread and the winners of both categories receive a special title as a prize. The maps' FFA(+) locations are also commemorated with a "Map of the Year" or "Map of the Year Runner-Up" plaque.<br />
<br />

<br />
=== Bring Me! ===<br />
Bring Me! is an event mainly hosted by [[Creators#natcrackers|natcrackers]] that started in 2024. The event is based on a party game called "Bring Me" where the host asks the participants to bring an item and whoever brings it first, wins. Specifically this event, the host releases a criteria list and participants have to look for unique FFA maps on the server that fit any of the criteria. <br />
<br />
The first event (2024) was hosted on the forums page but was met with issues such as poor search/navigation and the forum page crashing. The second event (2025) was then hosted on the Minr Discord through a separate forum channel to address these issues. While the first event only had two sets of 10 criteria each, the second one had a total of 100 and introduced a leaderboard system. Special awards and mentions were given for both years to highlight notable submissions since the event awarded no formal prizes. Out of the 13 participant groups in 2025, four were able to complete all 100 criteria, namely (in order of completion): Visuumii, andrewforreal, KittyCatElite, and eseehC. <br />

== Map Competitions and Jams ==<br />
This section lists map competitions and jams. This will also include spawn competitions since they are structured similarly.<br />
<br />
=== Spawn Competitions ===<br />
==== Spawn Competition 2016 ====<br />
The Spawn Competition, hosted in June 2016, was the first of the series of build competitions organized by Minr. For the most part, the competition was organized by [https://forums.minr.org/members/chillers.6/ Chillers], but with occasional help from other ops. Only greens+ were allowed to enter.<br />
<br />
Contestants were given their own plots in the end where they had Creative Mode access for the duration of the competition. They were allowed to receive WorldEdit help from admins, but nothing too minor that could be done without any help. After the entry period was over, the spawns were submitted in a community vote to see which one was the best.<br />
<br />
The winner of the competition was [https://forums.minr.org/members/minty.510/ minty1111], and his spawn was used as the server [[Spawn|spawn]] until it was changed to [[City Spawn]]. In total, eight spawns were created during this competition. They are:<br />
# BobTheBlob1's [[Astrology Spawn]]<br />
# [[Creators#rmanimal|rmanimal's]] Volcano ([[Volcanic Spawn]])<br />
# [[Creators#Alphaesia|Alphaesia's]] City/Town ([[City Spawn]])<br />
# Jsnick's Dungeon ([[Dungeon Spawn]])<br />
# [[Creators#Zatharel|Zatharel's]] and awkward_hamster's Summer Resort ([[Resort Spawn]])<br />
# Pro_Luma's Sea Life ([[Sea Life Spawn]])<br />
# [[Creators#minty1111|minty1111's]] Tropical Jungle ([[Minty Spawn]])<br />
# Spiggral's Sky Castle ([[Sky Castle Spawn]])<br />
<br />
==== Spawn Competition 2019 ====<br />
With City Spawn having been used for about a year and a half, it was decided that a new main spawn should be made. The 2019 spawn competition, usually referred to as “Spawncomp” was fifth in the series of building competitions.<br />
<br />
The competitors had from May 23 to September 9 to build a spawn, with strict templates on the FFA and "Best Maps" rooms. The spawns had to be aesthetically pleasing and needed to take no more than 10-20 seconds to get to any given map genre. Unlike the previous building competitions, the winner to this event was decided by public voting, which happened for a few weeks after the deadline. The winning spawn was [[Spawn#Frozen_Spawn|Frozen Spawn]], made by chayos.<br />
<br />
A total of four spawns were created. They are:<br />
# [[Creators#chayos|chayos']] Ice Palace ([[Frozen Spawn]])<br />
# [[Creators#luckylukecraft|luckylukecraft's]] Chromatic Circuitry ([[Chromatic Circuitry Spawn]])<br />
# [[Creators#pockleshetcheeto|pockleshetcheeto's]] and [[Creators#rebplane|rebplane's]] Mountain of Olympus ([[Olympus Spawn]])<br />
# [[Creators#Sulldas|Sulldas']] Mountain Resort ([[Lost in the Mail|Mountain Resort Spawn]])<br />
<br />
=== Puzzle Competitions ===<br />
==== Puzzle Competition 2017 ====<br />
The Puzzle Competition of 2017, sometimes referred to as “Zath's Puzzle Competition” or just "Puzzlecomp”, was the second in the series of build competitions. The competition was mainly hosted by Zatharel. The goal of the competition was to add more pure puzzle maps to [[FFA]].<br />
<br />
Just like in other build competitions, competitors were given temporary creative mode. However, this time, instead of multiple plots per person, the competition was hosted on one large plot. Entries were completed by August 1st and judged by a panel of judges consisting of 5 Minr [[Admins]].<br />
<br />
A total of thirteen puzzles were created and entered into the competition. They are, in order of placement:<br />
<br />

== One-Off Events ==<br />
These events were made to be hosted only once.<br />
<br />
=== The Great Race Tournament === <br />
The Great Race Tournament, also referred to as TGR Tournament, was a one time event hosted in July 2014 by HC12345. It mainly revolved around the first map in the TGR series, The Great Race.<br />
<br />
In the event, players of all ranks were put against each other in a tournament-style bracket. They had to race in the original TGR map and whoever came first in the race would continue further into the event.<br />
<br />
The format started with round robins, followed by knockout stages later on. The winner of this event was crafterkid98. <br />
<br />
=== HC's Christmas Chase ===<br />
HC's Christmas Chase, or The Christmas Chase, was a one time event hosted on Christmas Day in 2014 by HC12345. There have been no new editions of this event ever since.<br />
<br />
The event was free for anyone to enter, even with a delayed entrance to it. It consisted of racing through 10 different [[FFA]] levels, with whoever beat them all first being the winner.<br />
<br />
The winner of this event was chunkyboy12.<br />
<br />
=== Tournament of Champions ===<br />
Tournament of Champions was a one time event hosted by corygolfanatic in March 2016. The tournament followed a similar format to that of The Christmas Chase and TGR Tournament. Players had to compete against each other in maps picked by the host. <br />
<br />
Sadly, due to time differences and other difficulties, the tournament was cancelled half-way and there was never a winner announced.<br />
<br />
=== Throwback Finds ===<br />
Throwback Finds was an event hosted in conjunction with the 10 year anniversary celebration which only Green+ players could participate. The event was hosted by SomePunWithChloe and rickyboy320.<br />
<br />
For the anniversary celebration, the Minr staff team opened a 2011 version of Minr's world, [[Zero]]. This allowed players to explore an old version of Zero. Throwback Finds tasked the players with a scavenger hunt to find clues that led them throughout the 2011 server, similar to The Amazing Race. Players that completed the event were rewarded with the "Throwback Hunter" title.<br />
<br />

=== DKPK Speedrunning Tournament ===<br />
The DKPK Speedrunning Tournament was a [[Discord]] hosted tournament by [[Creators#masts|masts]] and [[Creators#duckle|duckle]] where speedrunners competed to complete five [[maps]] made for the event with the fastest times possible.<br />
<br />
Across five weekends, players could join a sign in the events section of [[spawn]] to warp into a competition map. They then had 48 hours to achieve the fastest time possible on the map, done by running from the starting line to the finishing line noted by black and white concrete in the maps themselves. These times were rounded down to the nearest tick (increments of 50ms) and saved to a leaderboard that shows the top ten in every map.<br />
<br />
For the first four maps ([[Xen]], [[Crimson Keep]], [[Ice Cap]], and [[Stockpile]]), anyone could participate to get the top times. For the final map, [[Vezzano Ligure]], only the top ten players based on placement could advance. These were calculated based on the player's best three maps. The times in the final map determined overall placement for the top ten, and the top three received $25 USD Steam gift cards.<br />
<br />
==== Tournament Maps ====<br />
Five maps were made for the tournament, each created by masts and duckle.<br />
* [[Xen]]<br />
* [[Crimson Keep]]<br />
* [[Ice Cap]]<br />
* [[Stockpile]]<br />
* [[Vezzano Ligure]]<br />

'''Tales of Shihon''' is a mixed Adventure map by Tronten, JakobTheKidd, TheGloryThief, and natcrackers. It rewards 18 [[Points|FFA Points]] upon completion and can be joined directly by typing "/join tos" in the server. <br />
<br />
The map features an interactive tutorial at the start and requires the use of a resource pack that contains voice-over narration, music, and paintings. This map has an optional hidden search where players have to find all 18 secrets to get a unique cherry blossom cosmetic trail. <br />
<br />
This map was awarded '''Map of the Year 2024'''.<br />
<br />
== General ==<br />
=== Story ===<br />
The player awakens as the hero tasked with reaching the City of Shihon to warn the shogun of an impending dragon attack, the great calamity called Shenron that plagues the country every 500 years. But in the city looms an evil cult who has already infiltrated the high ranks, roaming the streets of Shihon to stop the hero from defeating the dragon and guaranteeing the destruction of the world. The player must avoid the guards and safely reach the shogun with the help of certain people. <br />
=== Gameplay ===<br />
The map has three subsections and features search, parkour, and puzzle gameplay. First, the player starts off in a bamboo forest and must carefully parkour their way through without getting caught by the guards. Once inside the city, the player goes on a quest to find NPCs and collect clues after accomplishing their tasks. After reaching the shogun, the player gears up and prepares to fight the evil dragon.<br />

'''The Circle Line''' is a mixed Puzzle with Search map by natcrackers and EpicFH. It rewards 2 [[Points|FFA Points]] upon completion and can be joined directly by typing "/join circ" in the server. <br />
<br />
== General ==<br />
=== Gameplay ===<br />
The map is inspired by Exit 8 where the player has to spot anomalies in order to complete the map. The player is a train operator whose goal is to get to Paddington Station from Moorgate without onboarding any anomalies, with the player resetting if they have made the wrong choice. <br />
=== Aesthetics ===<br />
The map is set on an underground modern train station using blocks like gray glazed terracotta and various brown blocks for texturing. While it references its namesake which is a real London Underground line, it does not mirror the actual look of London stations.<br />
== Challenges ==<br />
This map is featured in two [[Challenges|challenges]]: 2025 Assortment and Hexa Challenge.<br />
== Trivia ==<br />
* The Circle Line features real stations in the Circle line in London like Moorgate, Baker Street, and Paddington Station. The train station route is found at the start of the map.<br />
* The NPCs in the map are all friends of the creators.<br />

<div>== Summary ==<br />
City of Shihon</div>Natcrackershttps://wiki.minr.org/index.php?title=Events&diff=12558Events2026-01-01T07:42:42Z<p>Natcrackers: /* Bring Me! */</p>
<hr />
<div>Events are limited time, server wide features available to players of all ranks or players of a specific rank. They are hosted every so often, usually by an Admin or Mod and often have special rewards for the top ranked players in them. This page covers known events and details about them. They are split into two main categories, server events and building competitions. They are listed by category then chronological order (of the first edition held).<br />
<br />
== Common Events ==<br />
These events occur more than once a year.<br />
=== Beep Test ===<br />
The beep test is a parkour event hosted randomly by Minr admins, usually HC12345, and Minr moderators. It takes place in its own arena, and can be accessed by players of any rank. It is based off the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-stage_fitness_test PACER test], which is a fitness test occasionally held during physical education classes.<br />
<br />
During the beep test, players must quickly jump across pseudo-randomly generated parkour, before it despawns. If a player falls down or doesn't make it to the other side, they become "At Risk"; if they fail again, they are eliminated. The last person alive is declared the winner and the game continues running until they die or the test ends.<br />
<br />
The parkour begins easy; over time, the parkour gets more challenging, the time between levels decreases, and the amount of levels needed to advance increases. The color of the parkour indicates its growth in difficulty, starting with white parkour, then blue, and so on, following the colors of Minr's difficulty colors. <br />
<br />
There is no reward for participating in beep tests, but there is a leaderboard system.<br />
<br />
== Yearly Events ==<br />
These events occur/occurred about once a year.<br />
=== Ninja Warrior ===<br />
Ninja Warrior is a parkour event hosted usually around twice a year by HC12345. It always takes place on Saturdays and so far has always been hosted by HC12345, with occasional help from some admins. The event is based off the TV show that has the exact same name.<br />
<br />
In Ninja Warrior, players have to complete 4 stages to receive the title of "Ninja Warrior" without falling. Some of the stages have a time limit on them for additional difficulty in their completion.<br />
<br />
Until Stage 3, the parkour rises in difficulty making Stage 3 the hardest. While Stage 4 is not very hard, it has a strict time limit that allows no room for error, making it hard for those who have gotten to it to earn the title of Ninja Warrior.<br />
<br />
The rewards for Ninja Warrior competitions include colored prefixes, Steam gifts and more.<br />
<br />
=== The Amazing Race ===<br />
Based on a TV show of the same name, The Amazing Race is an event only for Greens and up that takes place 1 to 2 times a year. It's first host was HC12345, but it has been hosted by a number of different mods/ops over the years.<br />
<br />
In The Amazing Race, contestants run around the map of Minr looking for clues. The event starts where the previous edition of it ended, and includes a first clue at the start. Using clever thinking, knowledge of the map and sometimes online tools, contestants solve the clues which lead them to more clues, all until they get to the final clue which is supposed to lead them to the end of the race.<br />
<br />
As it involves map exploration, The Amazing Race requires good knowledge of the world map as well as a fair amount of general knowledge to be able to get to the finish. Because it involves exploring the map, it is restricted to Greens and higher. <br />
<br />
Prizes include special star prefixes for the top 3 as well as occasional Steam prizes.<br />
<br />
=== Purple Comet ===<br />
Purple Comet, or Purple Coin, is an event that is occasionally hosted by rmanimal and Alphaesia. It was held anually, around August, starting in 2016 to 2019. It then received its most recent hosting of Purple Comet V in 2021.<br />
<br />
During the event, players are given a set of maps in which there are hidden "purple coins", which are purple player heads. Players must look for the coins by doing these maps. Set into one of two teams, the players compete to be the team with the most coins by the end of the event. All players that found a coin by the event's end received a temporary purple asterisk prefix, and those that were on the winning team received two.<br />
<br />
Over time with new editions, the event evolved.<br />
* Purple Comet I started out with rmanimal and rickyboy320 hiding coins and running the event, which used to be completely purple. <br />
* With Purple Comet II, rmanimal became the sole host and changed coins to purple box player heads.<br />
* Purple Comet III was the first event to co-host with Alphaesia, who was instrumental to running the event. The at the time spawn [[City Spawn]] became [[Corrupted City Spawn]], and green stars worth 3 coins were introduced.<br />
* Purple Comet IV led to a more formalized event structure, and it was the first edition to have [[Cosmetics]].<br />
* Purple Comet V added SomePunWithChloe as a third host whom helped hide coins, a spreadsheet was made for tracking maps, and the event led to [[Black Water Spawn]] being created. It was also the first version where whitelisting for the event was done, as nearly 100 players signed up for the event.<br />
<br />
=== Egg Hunt ===<br />
Egg Hunt was an event that is mainly hosted by TheHexer. It takes place around April, Easter time. In the second iteration, Egg Hunt 2.0, a competition was held that had teams find eggs, and the winning team was ilovenons and niltiac. Egg Hunt is open to players of all ranks to participate.<br />
<br />
Egg Hunt has evolved into a large open world search area, primarily created by chayos, where the player searches for eggs. In Egg Hunt 2.0, there was competition between teams of two to compete in finding eggs in a round robin style competition in certain Minr locations. The winning team received the "Egglord" title.<br />
<br />
Years after Egghunt 2019 and 2021 were hosted, they were turned into maps called [[Egghunt 2]] and [[Egghunt 3]]. Egghunt 3 still rewards players with the Eggtacular trail for 100% completion.<br />
<br />
=== Minr Sightseeing ===<br />
Minr Sightseeing is a competitive event that has been hosted by Marrimars, TheHexer, and Thogin. The event takes place in a single day and has had four iterations. One on August 15th, 2020, which was won by Bailey06 and NoSi, one on February 27th, 2021, which was won by Jaabus and spolendina, one on July 7th, 2022, which was won by 0l_ and lendkaru, and one over a week beginning April 1st, 2023, which was won by KittyCatElite. Minr Sightseeing is open to players of all [[ranks]] to participate.<br />
<br />
==== 2020 to 2022 Details ====<br />
Players can form teams of two or compete alone. The competition tasks the players with identifying pictures of certain Minr maps then going to the exact location that the picture was taken to earn a point. Winning rewards the winning team a title, and all participating players are awarded a hat.<br />
<br />
==== Cursed Sightseeing Details ====<br />
For 2023, sightseeing was changed to a week long event that began April 1st. This event, which became known as Cursed Sightseeing, was unique for featuring locations in maps that required players to perform map escapes or get out of bounds to reach the location. This event also rewarded more cosmetics than the previous iterations due to the extra difficulty in finding and reaching locations.<br />
<br />
=== Map & Map Maker of the Year ===<br />
Map & Mapmaker of the Year is an ongoing event held annually since 2020. Greenies nominate the map they feel is the best of that particular year, and the map creator who has been the most impactful in that particular year. <br />
<br />
A forum thread is posted annually, typically by rmanimal, where players nominate up to 4 maps and 4 map creators that they think are deserving of the title. These nominations are tallied and then a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dzbBJgfvTDA&embeds_referring_euri=https%3A%2F%2Fforums.minr.org%2F&source_ve_path=Mjg2NjY ranked-choice ballot] is held to determine the winners.<br />
<br />
The winners are announced in a separate thread and the winners of both categories receive a special title as a prize. The maps' FFA(+) locations are also commemorated with a "Map of the Year" or "Map of the Year Runner-Up" plaque.<br />
<br />

<br />
=== Bring Me! ===<br />
Bring Me! is an event mainly hosted by [[Creators#natcrackers|natcrackers]] that started in 2024. The event is based on a party game called "Bring Me" where the host asks the participants to bring an item and whoever brings it first, wins. Specifically this event, the host releases a criteria list and participants have to look for unique FFA maps on the server that fit any of the criteria. <br />
<br />
The first event (2024) was hosted on the forums page but was met with issues such as poor search/navigation and the forum page crashing. The second event (2025) was then hosted on the Minr Discord through a separate forum channel to address these issues. While the first event only had two sets of 10 criteria each, the second one had a total of 100 and introduced a leaderboard system. Special awards and mentions were given for both years to highlight notable submissions since the event awarded no formal prizes. Out of the 13 participant groups in 2025, four were able to complete all 100 criteria, namely (in order of completion): Visuumii, andrewforreal, KittyCatElite, and eseehC. <br />

== Map Competitions and Jams ==<br />
This section lists map competitions and jams. This will also include spawn competitions since they are structured similarly.<br />
<br />
=== Spawn Competitions ===<br />
==== Spawn Competition 2016 ====<br />
The Spawn Competition, hosted in June 2016, was the first of the series of build competitions organized by Minr. For the most part, the competition was organized by [https://forums.minr.org/members/chillers.6/ Chillers], but with occasional help from other ops. Only greens+ were allowed to enter.<br />
<br />
Contestants were given their own plots in the end where they had Creative Mode access for the duration of the competition. They were allowed to receive WorldEdit help from admins, but nothing too minor that could be done without any help. After the entry period was over, the spawns were submitted in a community vote to see which one was the best.<br />
<br />
The winner of the competition was [https://forums.minr.org/members/minty.510/ minty1111], and his spawn was used as the server [[Spawn|spawn]] until it was changed to [[City Spawn]]. In total, eight spawns were created during this competition. They are:<br />

==== Spawn Competition 2019 ====<br />
With City Spawn having been used for about a year and a half, it was decided that a new main spawn should be made. The 2019 spawn competition, usually referred to as “Spawncomp” was fifth in the series of building competitions.<br />
<br />
The competitors had from May 23 to September 9 to build a spawn, with strict templates on the FFA and "Best Maps" rooms. The spawns had to be aesthetically pleasing and needed to take no more than 10-20 seconds to get to any given map genre. Unlike the previous building competitions, the winner to this event was decided by public voting, which happened for a few weeks after the deadline. The winning spawn was [[Spawn#Frozen_Spawn|Frozen Spawn]], made by chayos.<br />
<br />
A total of four spawns were created. They are:<br />
# [[Creators#chayos|chayos']] Ice Palace ([[Frozen Spawn]])<br />

== One-Off Events ==<br />
These events were made to be hosted only once.<br />
<br />
=== The Great Race Tournament === <br />
The Great Race Tournament, also referred to as TGR Tournament, was a one time event hosted in July 2014 by HC12345. It mainly revolved around the first map in the TGR series, The Great Race.<br />
<br />
In the event, players of all ranks were put against each other in a tournament-style bracket. They had to race in the original TGR map and whoever came first in the race would continue further into the event.<br />
<br />
The format started with round robins, followed by knockout stages later on. The winner of this event was crafterkid98. <br />
<br />
=== HC's Christmas Chase ===<br />
HC's Christmas Chase, or The Christmas Chase, was a one time event hosted on Christmas Day in 2014 by HC12345. There have been no new editions of this event ever since.<br />
<br />
The event was free for anyone to enter, even with a delayed entrance to it. It consisted of racing through 10 different [[FFA]] levels, with whoever beat them all first being the winner.<br />
<br />
The winner of this event was chunkyboy12.<br />

<br />
For the anniversary celebration, the Minr staff team opened a 2011 version of Minr's world, [[Zero]]. This allowed players to explore an old version of Zero. Throwback Finds tasked the players with a scavenger hunt to find clues that led them throughout the 2011 server, similar to The Amazing Race. Players that completed the event were rewarded with the "Throwback Hunter" title.<br />

=== DKPK Speedrunning Tournament ===<br />
The DKPK Speedrunning Tournament was a [[Discord]] hosted tournament by [[Creators#masts|masts]] and [[Creators#duckle|duckle]] where speedrunners competed to complete five [[maps]] made for the event with the fastest times possible.<br />
<br />
Across five weekends, players could join a sign in the events section of [[spawn]] to warp into a competition map. They then had 48 hours to achieve the fastest time possible on the map, done by running from the starting line to the finishing line noted by black and white concrete in the maps themselves. These times were rounded down to the nearest tick (increments of 50ms) and saved to a leaderboard that shows the top ten in every map.<br />
<br />
For the first four maps ([[Xen]], [[Crimson Keep]], [[Ice Cap]], and [[Stockpile]]), anyone could participate to get the top times. For the final map, [[Vezzano Ligure]], only the top ten players based on placement could advance. These were calculated based on the player's best three maps. The times in the final map determined overall placement for the top ten, and the top three received $25 USD Steam gift cards.<br />
<br />
==== Tournament Maps ====<br />
Five maps were made for the tournament, each created by masts and duckle.<br />
* [[Xen]]<br />
* [[Crimson Keep]]<br />
* [[Ice Cap]]<br />
* [[Stockpile]]<br />
* [[Vezzano Ligure]]<br />

<hr />
<div>Events are limited time, server wide features available to players of all ranks or players of a specific rank. They are hosted every so often, usually by an Admin or Mod and often have special rewards for the top ranked players in them. This page covers known events and details about them. They are split into two main categories, server events and building competitions. They are listed by category then chronological order (of the first edition held).<br />
<br />
== Common Events ==<br />
These events occur more than once a year.<br />
=== Beep Test ===<br />
The beep test is a parkour event hosted randomly by Minr admins, usually HC12345, and Minr moderators. It takes place in its own arena, and can be accessed by players of any rank. It is based off the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-stage_fitness_test PACER test], which is a fitness test occasionally held during physical education classes.<br />
<br />
During the beep test, players must quickly jump across pseudo-randomly generated parkour, before it despawns. If a player falls down or doesn't make it to the other side, they become "At Risk"; if they fail again, they are eliminated. The last person alive is declared the winner and the game continues running until they die or the test ends.<br />
<br />
The parkour begins easy; over time, the parkour gets more challenging, the time between levels decreases, and the amount of levels needed to advance increases. The color of the parkour indicates its growth in difficulty, starting with white parkour, then blue, and so on, following the colors of Minr's difficulty colors. <br />
<br />
There is no reward for participating in beep tests, but there is a leaderboard system.<br />
<br />
== Yearly Events ==<br />
These events occur/occurred about once a year.<br />
=== Ninja Warrior ===<br />
Ninja Warrior is a parkour event hosted usually around twice a year by HC12345. It always takes place on Saturdays and so far has always been hosted by HC12345, with occasional help from some admins. The event is based off the TV show that has the exact same name.<br />
<br />
In Ninja Warrior, players have to complete 4 stages to receive the title of "Ninja Warrior" without falling. Some of the stages have a time limit on them for additional difficulty in their completion.<br />
<br />
Until Stage 3, the parkour rises in difficulty making Stage 3 the hardest. While Stage 4 is not very hard, it has a strict time limit that allows no room for error, making it hard for those who have gotten to it to earn the title of Ninja Warrior.<br />
<br />
The rewards for Ninja Warrior competitions include colored prefixes, Steam gifts and more.<br />
<br />
=== The Amazing Race ===<br />
Based on a TV show of the same name, The Amazing Race is an event only for Greens and up that takes place 1 to 2 times a year. It's first host was HC12345, but it has been hosted by a number of different mods/ops over the years.<br />
<br />
In The Amazing Race, contestants run around the map of Minr looking for clues. The event starts where the previous edition of it ended, and includes a first clue at the start. Using clever thinking, knowledge of the map and sometimes online tools, contestants solve the clues which lead them to more clues, all until they get to the final clue which is supposed to lead them to the end of the race.<br />
<br />
As it involves map exploration, The Amazing Race requires good knowledge of the world map as well as a fair amount of general knowledge to be able to get to the finish. Because it involves exploring the map, it is restricted to Greens and higher. <br />
<br />
Prizes include special star prefixes for the top 3 as well as occasional Steam prizes.<br />
<br />
=== Purple Comet ===<br />
Purple Comet, or Purple Coin, is an event that is occasionally hosted by rmanimal and Alphaesia. It was held anually, around August, starting in 2016 to 2019. It then received its most recent hosting of Purple Comet V in 2021.<br />
<br />
During the event, players are given a set of maps in which there are hidden "purple coins", which are purple player heads. Players must look for the coins by doing these maps. Set into one of two teams, the players compete to be the team with the most coins by the end of the event. All players that found a coin by the event's end received a temporary purple asterisk prefix, and those that were on the winning team received two.<br />
<br />
Over time with new editions, the event evolved.<br />
* Purple Comet I started out with rmanimal and rickyboy320 hiding coins and running the event, which used to be completely purple. <br />
* With Purple Comet II, rmanimal became the sole host and changed coins to purple box player heads.<br />
* Purple Comet III was the first event to co-host with Alphaesia, who was instrumental to running the event. The at the time spawn [[City Spawn]] became [[Corrupted City Spawn]], and green stars worth 3 coins were introduced.<br />
* Purple Comet IV led to a more formalized event structure, and it was the first edition to have [[Cosmetics]].<br />
* Purple Comet V added SomePunWithChloe as a third host whom helped hide coins, a spreadsheet was made for tracking maps, and the event led to [[Black Water Spawn]] being created. It was also the first version where whitelisting for the event was done, as nearly 100 players signed up for the event.<br />
<br />
=== Egg Hunt ===<br />
Egg Hunt was an event that is mainly hosted by TheHexer. It takes place around April, Easter time. In the second iteration, Egg Hunt 2.0, a competition was held that had teams find eggs, and the winning team was ilovenons and niltiac. Egg Hunt is open to players of all ranks to participate.<br />
<br />
Egg Hunt has evolved into a large open world search area, primarily created by chayos, where the player searches for eggs. In Egg Hunt 2.0, there was competition between teams of two to compete in finding eggs in a round robin style competition in certain Minr locations. The winning team received the "Egglord" title.<br />
<br />
Years after Egghunt 2019 and 2021 were hosted, they were turned into maps called [[Egghunt 2]] and [[Egghunt 3]]. Egghunt 3 still rewards players with the Eggtacular trail for 100% completion.<br />
<br />
=== Minr Sightseeing ===<br />
Minr Sightseeing is a competitive event that has been hosted by Marrimars, TheHexer, and Thogin. The event takes place in a single day and has had four iterations. One on August 15th, 2020, which was won by Bailey06 and NoSi, one on February 27th, 2021, which was won by Jaabus and spolendina, one on July 7th, 2022, which was won by 0l_ and lendkaru, and one over a week beginning April 1st, 2023, which was won by KittyCatElite. Minr Sightseeing is open to players of all [[ranks]] to participate.<br />
<br />
==== 2020 to 2022 Details ====<br />
Players can form teams of two or compete alone. The competition tasks the players with identifying pictures of certain Minr maps then going to the exact location that the picture was taken to earn a point. Winning rewards the winning team a title, and all participating players are awarded a hat.<br />
<br />
==== Cursed Sightseeing Details ====<br />
For 2023, sightseeing was changed to a week long event that began April 1st. This event, which became known as Cursed Sightseeing, was unique for featuring locations in maps that required players to perform map escapes or get out of bounds to reach the location. This event also rewarded more cosmetics than the previous iterations due to the extra difficulty in finding and reaching locations.<br />
<br />
=== Map & Map Maker of the Year ===<br />
Map & Mapmaker of the Year is an ongoing event held annually since 2020. Greenies nominate the map they feel is the best of that particular year, and the map creator who has been the most impactful in that particular year. <br />
<br />
A forum thread is posted annually, typically by rmanimal, where players nominate up to 4 maps and 4 map creators that they think are deserving of the title. These nominations are tallied and then a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dzbBJgfvTDA&embeds_referring_euri=https%3A%2F%2Fforums.minr.org%2F&source_ve_path=Mjg2NjY ranked-choice ballot] is held to determine the winners.<br />
<br />
The winners are announced in a separate thread and the winners of both categories receive a special title as a prize. The maps' FFA(+) locations are also commemorated with a "Map of the Year" or "Map of the Year Runner-Up" plaque.<br />

=== Bring Me! ===<br />
Bring Me! is an event mainly hosted by [[Creators#natcrackers|natcrackers]] that started in 2024. The event is based on a party game called "Bring Me" where the host asks the participants to bring an item and whoever brings it first, wins. Specifically this event, the host releases a criteria list and participants have to look for unique FFA maps on the server that fits any of the criteria. <br />
<br />
The first event (2024) was hosted on the forums page but was met with issues such as poor search/navigation and the forum page crashing. The second event (2025) was then hosted on the Minr Discord through a separate forum channel to address these issues. While the first event only had two sets of 10 criteria each, the second one had a total of 100 and introduced a leaderboard system. Special awards and mentions were given for both years to highlight notable submissions since the event awarded no formal prizes. Out of the 13 participant groups in 2025, four were able to complete all 100 criteria, namely (in order of completion): Visuumii, andrewforreal, KittyCatElite, and eseehC. <br />

== Map Competitions and Jams ==<br />
This section lists map competitions and jams. This will also include spawn competitions since they are structured similarly.<br />
<br />
=== Spawn Competitions ===<br />
==== Spawn Competition 2016 ====<br />
The Spawn Competition, hosted in June 2016, was the first of the series of build competitions organized by Minr. For the most part, the competition was organized by [https://forums.minr.org/members/chillers.6/ Chillers], but with occasional help from other ops. Only greens+ were allowed to enter.<br />
<br />
Contestants were given their own plots in the end where they had Creative Mode access for the duration of the competition. They were allowed to receive WorldEdit help from admins, but nothing too minor that could be done without any help. After the entry period was over, the spawns were submitted in a community vote to see which one was the best.<br />
<br />
The winner of the competition was [https://forums.minr.org/members/minty.510/ minty1111], and his spawn was used as the server [[Spawn|spawn]] until it was changed to [[City Spawn]]. In total, eight spawns were created during this competition. They are:<br />
# BobTheBlob1's [[Astrology Spawn]]<br />
# [[Creators#rmanimal|rmanimal's]] Volcano ([[Volcanic Spawn]])<br />
# [[Creators#Alphaesia|Alphaesia's]] City/Town ([[City Spawn]])<br />

# Spiggral's Sky Castle ([[Sky Castle Spawn]])<br />
<br />
==== Spawn Competition 2019 ====<br />
With City Spawn having been used for about a year and a half, it was decided that a new main spawn should be made. The 2019 spawn competition, usually referred to as “Spawncomp” was fifth in the series of building competitions.<br />
<br />
The competitors had from May 23 to September 9 to build a spawn, with strict templates on the FFA and "Best Maps" rooms. The spawns had to be aesthetically pleasing and needed to take no more than 10-20 seconds to get to any given map genre. Unlike the previous building competitions, the winner to this event was decided by public voting, which happened for a few weeks after the deadline. The winning spawn was [[Spawn#Frozen_Spawn|Frozen Spawn]], made by chayos.<br />
<br />
A total of four spawns were created. They are:<br />
# [[Creators#chayos|chayos']] Ice Palace ([[Frozen Spawn]])<br />
# [[Creators#luckylukecraft|luckylukecraft's]] Chromatic Circuitry ([[Chromatic Circuitry Spawn]])<br />

The Puzzle Competition of 2017, sometimes referred to as “Zath's Puzzle Competition” or just "Puzzlecomp”, was the second in the series of build competitions. The competition was mainly hosted by Zatharel. The goal of the competition was to add more pure puzzle maps to [[FFA]].<br />
<br />
Just like in other build competitions, competitors were given temporary creative mode. However, this time, instead of multiple plots per person, the competition was hosted on one large plot. Entries were completed by August 1st and judged by a panel of judges consisting of 5 Minr [[Admins]].<br />

These scores were averaged to give a final score for each judge, and these final scores were averaged to determine its ranking. The competition was first hosted by [[Creators#Zatharel|Zatharel]] before passing duties over to [[Creators#TheHexer|TheHexer]] early on. The final judges ended up consisting of [[Creators#chayos|chayos]], [[Creators#TheHexer|TheHexer]], [[Creators#spolendina|spolendina]], and [[Creators#ZombieKiler|ZombieKiler]].

== One-Off Events ==<br />
These events were made to be hosted only once.<br />
<br />
=== The Great Race Tournament === <br />
The Great Race Tournament, also referred to as TGR Tournament, was a one time event hosted in July 2014 by HC12345. It mainly revolved around the first map in the TGR series, The Great Race.<br />
<br />
In the event, players of all ranks were put against each other in a tournament-style bracket. They had to race in the original TGR map and whoever came first in the race would continue further into the event.<br />
<br />
The format started with round robins, followed by knockout stages later on. The winner of this event was crafterkid98. <br />
<br />
=== HC's Christmas Chase ===<br />
HC's Christmas Chase, or The Christmas Chase, was a one time event hosted on Christmas Day in 2014 by HC12345. There have been no new editions of this event ever since.<br />
<br />
The event was free for anyone to enter, even with a delayed entrance to it. It consisted of racing through 10 different [[FFA]] levels, with whoever beat them all first being the winner.<br />
<br />
The winner of this event was chunkyboy12.<br />
<br />
=== Tournament of Champions ===<br />
Tournament of Champions was a one time event hosted by corygolfanatic in March 2016. The tournament followed a similar format to that of The Christmas Chase and TGR Tournament. Players had to compete against each other in maps picked by the host. <br />
<br />
Sadly, due to time differences and other difficulties, the tournament was cancelled half-way and there was never a winner announced.<br />
<br />
=== Throwback Finds ===<br />
Throwback Finds was an event hosted in conjunction with the 10 year anniversary celebration which only Green+ players could participate. The event was hosted by SomePunWithChloe and rickyboy320.<br />
<br />
For the anniversary celebration, the Minr staff team opened a 2011 version of Minr's world, [[Zero]]. This allowed players to explore an old version of Zero. Throwback Finds tasked the players with a scavenger hunt to find clues that led them throughout the 2011 server, similar to The Amazing Race. Players that completed the event were rewarded with the "Throwback Hunter" title.<br />
<br />
=== Minr Chess Tourney 2.0 ===<br />
A chess tournament by [[Creators#AverageIPA|AverageIPA]] and [[Creators#BoggledToggo|BoggledToggo]] was hosted from August 12th to October 9th, 2023. Competitors were split into four brackets based on their online ratings and played in a double elimination format. The winner of each bracket received a Grandmaster Title, and all participants received a Participation Crown.<br />

=== Summer Splashdown 2025 ===<br />
The Summer Splashdown was an event mainly hosted by [[Marrimars]] from July 14 to the 27th. The event consisted of multiple daily events like puzzles and searches that can be hosted by anyone in-game or on the Discord. Players were split into three main teams: Amber, Amethyst, and Sapphire. Players can earn both individual and team points by participating in the events. <br />
<br />
Participants who earned at least 1 point during the event got a commemorative cosmetic hat in the color of the winning team while participants who earned at least 50 points got an additional "Made A Splash" cosmetic title.<br />
<br />
The winner of this event was Team Amethyst with 2673 points, followed by Team Amber with 2653 points and Team Sapphire with 2078 points in last place.<br />

=== DKPK Speedrunning Tournament ===<br />
The DKPK Speedrunning Tournament was a [[Discord]] hosted tournament by [[Creators#masts|masts]] and [[Creators#duckle|duckle]] where speedrunners competed to complete five [[maps]] made for the event with the fastest times possible.<br />
<br />
Across five weekends, players could join a sign in the events section of [[spawn]] to warp into a competition map. They then had 48 hours to achieve the fastest time possible on the map, done by running from the starting line to the finishing line noted by black and white concrete in the maps themselves. These times were rounded down to the nearest tick (increments of 50ms) and saved to a leaderboard that shows the top ten in every map.<br />
<br />
For the first four maps ([[Xen]], [[Crimson Keep]], [[Ice Cap]], and [[Stockpile]]), anyone could participate to get the top times. For the final map, [[Vezzano Ligure]], only the top ten players based on placement could advance. These were calculated based on the player's best three maps. The times in the final map determined overall placement for the top ten, and the top three received $25 USD Steam gift cards.<br />
<br />
==== Tournament Maps ====<br />
Five maps were made for the tournament, each created by masts and duckle.<br />
* [[Xen]]<br />
* [[Crimson Keep]]<br />
* [[Ice Cap]]<br />
* [[Stockpile]]<br />
* [[Vezzano Ligure]]<br />
<br />
=== Minr JetLag: Hide and Seek ===<br />
A bracket tournament hosted by [[Creators#BoggledToggo|BoggledToggo]] inspired by its namesake (Hide and Seek YouTube series by Jet Lag: The Game). Each match consists of four hunts, with each pair hunting each of the other team's members once. Competitors sign up in teams of two and were placed into a single-elimination bracket. Winners are determined by longest total hiding time. <br />
<br />
The tournament was hosted on a dedicated server ran by the host and uses the [https://modrinth.com/mod/hide+seek Hide and Seek mod] coded by EightSidedSquare. <br />
<br />
The summary of the matchups can be found in this [https://challonge.com/minrjetlag Challonge link]. The winner of this event were Yoghurrt & GizzeMisse.<br />

<hr />
<div>Events are limited time, server wide features available to players of all ranks or players of a specific rank. They are hosted every so often, usually by an Admin or Mod and often have special rewards for the top ranked players in them. This page covers known events and details about them. They are split into two main categories, server events and building competitions. They are listed by category then chronological order (of the first edition held).<br />
<br />
== Common Events ==<br />
These events occur more than once a year.<br />
=== Beep Test ===<br />
The beep test is a parkour event hosted randomly by Minr admins, usually HC12345, and Minr moderators. It takes place in its own arena, and can be accessed by players of any rank. It is based off the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-stage_fitness_test PACER test], which is a fitness test occasionally held during physical education classes.<br />
<br />
During the beep test, players must quickly jump across pseudo-randomly generated parkour, before it despawns. If a player falls down or doesn't make it to the other side, they become "At Risk"; if they fail again, they are eliminated. The last person alive is declared the winner and the game continues running until they die or the test ends.<br />
<br />
The parkour begins easy; over time, the parkour gets more challenging, the time between levels decreases, and the amount of levels needed to advance increases. The color of the parkour indicates its growth in difficulty, starting with white parkour, then blue, and so on, following the colors of Minr's difficulty colors. <br />
<br />
There is no reward for participating in beep tests, but there is a leaderboard system.<br />
<br />
== Yearly Events ==<br />
These events occur/occurred about once a year.<br />
=== Ninja Warrior ===<br />
Ninja Warrior is a parkour event hosted usually around twice a year by HC12345. It always takes place on Saturdays and so far has always been hosted by HC12345, with occasional help from some admins. The event is based off the TV show that has the exact same name.<br />
<br />
In Ninja Warrior, players have to complete 4 stages to receive the title of "Ninja Warrior" without falling. Some of the stages have a time limit on them for additional difficulty in their completion.<br />
<br />
Until Stage 3, the parkour rises in difficulty making Stage 3 the hardest. While Stage 4 is not very hard, it has a strict time limit that allows no room for error, making it hard for those who have gotten to it to earn the title of Ninja Warrior.<br />
<br />
The rewards for Ninja Warrior competitions include colored prefixes, Steam gifts and more.<br />
<br />
=== The Amazing Race ===<br />
Based on a TV show of the same name, The Amazing Race is an event only for Greens and up that takes place 1 to 2 times a year. It's first host was HC12345, but it has been hosted by a number of different mods/ops over the years.<br />
<br />
In The Amazing Race, contestants run around the map of Minr looking for clues. The event starts where the previous edition of it ended, and includes a first clue at the start. Using clever thinking, knowledge of the map and sometimes online tools, contestants solve the clues which lead them to more clues, all until they get to the final clue which is supposed to lead them to the end of the race.<br />
<br />
As it involves map exploration, The Amazing Race requires good knowledge of the world map as well as a fair amount of general knowledge to be able to get to the finish. Because it involves exploring the map, it is restricted to Greens and higher. <br />
<br />
Prizes include special star prefixes for the top 3 as well as occasional Steam prizes.<br />
<br />
=== Purple Comet ===<br />
Purple Comet, or Purple Coin, is an event that is occasionally hosted by rmanimal and Alphaesia. It was held anually, around August, starting in 2016 to 2019. It then received its most recent hosting of Purple Comet V in 2021.<br />
<br />
During the event, players are given a set of maps in which there are hidden "purple coins", which are purple player heads. Players must look for the coins by doing these maps. Set into one of two teams, the players compete to be the team with the most coins by the end of the event. All players that found a coin by the event's end received a temporary purple asterisk prefix, and those that were on the winning team received two.<br />
<br />
Over time with new editions, the event evolved.<br />
* Purple Comet I started out with rmanimal and rickyboy320 hiding coins and running the event, which used to be completely purple. <br />
* With Purple Comet II, rmanimal became the sole host and changed coins to purple box player heads.<br />
* Purple Comet III was the first event to co-host with Alphaesia, who was instrumental to running the event. The at the time spawn [[City Spawn]] became [[Corrupted City Spawn]], and green stars worth 3 coins were introduced.<br />
* Purple Comet IV led to a more formalized event structure, and it was the first edition to have [[Cosmetics]].<br />
* Purple Comet V added SomePunWithChloe as a third host whom helped hide coins, a spreadsheet was made for tracking maps, and the event led to [[Black Water Spawn]] being created. It was also the first version where whitelisting for the event was done, as nearly 100 players signed up for the event.<br />
<br />
=== Egg Hunt ===<br />
Egg Hunt was an event that is mainly hosted by TheHexer. It takes place around April, Easter time. In the second iteration, Egg Hunt 2.0, a competition was held that had teams find eggs, and the winning team was ilovenons and niltiac. Egg Hunt is open to players of all ranks to participate.<br />
<br />
Egg Hunt has evolved into a large open world search area, primarily created by chayos, where the player searches for eggs. In Egg Hunt 2.0, there was competition between teams of two to compete in finding eggs in a round robin style competition in certain Minr locations. The winning team received the "Egglord" title.<br />
<br />
Years after Egghunt 2019 and 2021 were hosted, they were turned into maps called [[Egghunt 2]] and [[Egghunt 3]]. Egghunt 3 still rewards players with the Eggtacular trail for 100% completion.<br />
<br />
=== Minr Sightseeing ===<br />
Minr Sightseeing is a competitive event that has been hosted by Marrimars, TheHexer, and Thogin. The event takes place in a single day and has had four iterations. One on August 15th, 2020, which was won by Bailey06 and NoSi, one on February 27th, 2021, which was won by Jaabus and spolendina, one on July 7th, 2022, which was won by 0l_ and lendkaru, and one over a week beginning April 1st, 2023, which was won by KittyCatElite. Minr Sightseeing is open to players of all [[ranks]] to participate.<br />
<br />
==== 2020 to 2022 Details ====<br />
Players can form teams of two or compete alone. The competition tasks the players with identifying pictures of certain Minr maps then going to the exact location that the picture was taken to earn a point. Winning rewards the winning team a title, and all participating players are awarded a hat.<br />
<br />
==== Cursed Sightseeing Details ====<br />
For 2023, sightseeing was changed to a week long event that began April 1st. This event, which became known as Cursed Sightseeing, was unique for featuring locations in maps that required players to perform map escapes or get out of bounds to reach the location. This event also rewarded more cosmetics than the previous iterations due to the extra difficulty in finding and reaching locations.<br />
<br />
=== Map & Map Maker of the Year ===<br />
Map & Mapmaker of the Year is an ongoing event held annually since 2020. Greenies nominate the map they feel is the best of that particular year, and the map creator who has been the most impactful in that particular year. <br />
<br />
A forum thread is posted annually, typically by rmanimal, where players nominate up to 4 maps and 4 map creators that they think are deserving of the title. These nominations are tallied and then a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dzbBJgfvTDA&embeds_referring_euri=https%3A%2F%2Fforums.minr.org%2F&source_ve_path=Mjg2NjY ranked-choice ballot] is held to determine the winners.<br />
<br />
The winners are announced in a separate thread and the winners of both categories receive a special title as a prize. The maps' FFA(+) locations are also commemorated with a "Map of the Year" or "Map of the Year Runner-Up" plaque.<br />
<br />

<br />
=== Bring Me! ===<br />
Bring Me! is an event mainly hosted by natcrackers that started in 2024. The event is based on a party game called "Bring Me" where the host asks the participants to bring an item and whoever brings it first, wins. Specifically this event, the host releases a criteria list and participants have to look for unique FFA maps on the server that fits any of the criteria. <br />
<br />
The first event (2024) was hosted on the forums page but was met with issues such as poor search/navigation and the forum page crashing. The second event (2025) was then hosted on the Minr Discord through a separate forum channel to address these issues. While the first event only had two sets of 10 criteria each, the second one had a total of 100 and introduced a leaderboard system. Special awards and mentions were given for both years to highlight notable submissions since the event awarded no formal prizes. Out of the 13 participant groups in 2025, four were able to complete all 100 criteria, namely (in order of completion): Visuumii, andrewforreal, KittyCatElite, and eseehC. <br />

== Map Competitions and Jams ==<br />
This section lists map competitions and jams. This will also include spawn competitions since they are structured similarly.<br />
<br />
=== Spawn Competitions ===<br />
==== Spawn Competition 2016 ====<br />
The Spawn Competition, hosted in June 2016, was the first of the series of build competitions organized by Minr. For the most part, the competition was organized by [https://forums.minr.org/members/chillers.6/ Chillers], but with occasional help from other ops. Only greens+ were allowed to enter.<br />
<br />
Contestants were given their own plots in the end where they had Creative Mode access for the duration of the competition. They were allowed to receive WorldEdit help from admins, but nothing too minor that could be done without any help. After the entry period was over, the spawns were submitted in a community vote to see which one was the best.<br />
<br />
The winner of the competition was [https://forums.minr.org/members/minty.510/ minty1111], and his spawn was used as the server [[Spawn|spawn]] until it was changed to [[City Spawn]]. In total, eight spawns were created during this competition. They are:<br />
# BobTheBlob1's [[Astrology Spawn]]<br />
# [[Creators#rmanimal|rmanimal's]] Volcano ([[Volcanic Spawn]])<br />
# [[Creators#Alphaesia|Alphaesia's]] City/Town ([[City Spawn]])<br />
# Jsnick's Dungeon ([[Dungeon Spawn]])<br />
# [[Creators#Zatharel|Zatharel's]] and awkward_hamster's Summer Resort ([[Resort Spawn]])<br />
# Pro_Luma's Sea Life ([[Sea Life Spawn]])<br />
# [[Creators#minty1111|minty1111's]] Tropical Jungle ([[Minty Spawn]])<br />
# Spiggral's Sky Castle ([[Sky Castle Spawn]])<br />
<br />
==== Spawn Competition 2019 ====<br />
With City Spawn having been used for about a year and a half, it was decided that a new main spawn should be made. The 2019 spawn competition, usually referred to as “Spawncomp” was fifth in the series of building competitions.<br />
<br />
The competitors had from May 23 to September 9 to build a spawn, with strict templates on the FFA and "Best Maps" rooms. The spawns had to be aesthetically pleasing and needed to take no more than 10-20 seconds to get to any given map genre. Unlike the previous building competitions, the winner to this event was decided by public voting, which happened for a few weeks after the deadline. The winning spawn was [[Spawn#Frozen_Spawn|Frozen Spawn]], made by chayos.<br />
<br />
A total of four spawns were created. They are:<br />
# [[Creators#chayos|chayos']] Ice Palace ([[Frozen Spawn]])<br />
# [[Creators#luckylukecraft|luckylukecraft's]] Chromatic Circuitry ([[Chromatic Circuitry Spawn]])<br />
# [[Creators#pockleshetcheeto|pockleshetcheeto's]] and [[Creators#rebplane|rebplane's]] Mountain of Olympus ([[Olympus Spawn]])<br />
# [[Creators#Sulldas|Sulldas']] Mountain Resort ([[Lost in the Mail|Mountain Resort Spawn]])<br />
<br />
=== Puzzle Competitions ===<br />
==== Puzzle Competition 2017 ====<br />
The Puzzle Competition of 2017, sometimes referred to as “Zath's Puzzle Competition” or just "Puzzlecomp”, was the second in the series of build competitions. The competition was mainly hosted by Zatharel. The goal of the competition was to add more pure puzzle maps to [[FFA]].<br />
<br />
Just like in other build competitions, competitors were given temporary creative mode. However, this time, instead of multiple plots per person, the competition was hosted on one large plot. Entries were completed by August 1st and judged by a panel of judges consisting of 5 Minr [[Admins]].<br />
<br />
A total of thirteen puzzles were created and entered into the competition. They are, in order of placement:<br />
<br />
# [[Miner's Millions]] by [[Creators#rmanimal|rmanimal]]<br />

==== Puzzle Competition 2020 ====<br />
The 2020 Puzzle Competition, usually referred to as "puzzlecomp" or "puzzlecomp2," was seventh in the series of building competitions and the second to be focused on puzzle building.<br />
<br />
The competitors had from June 1st to August 31st to create their puzzle maps. For this iteration of puzzlecomp, mixed puzzles were permitted. All competitors had to construct their puzzles on one large plot of land in Theta. Maps were judged on both gameplay and aesthetics, with judges giving both categories a score out of 10. These scores were averaged to give a final score for each judge, and these final scores were averaged to determine its ranking. The competition was first hosted by [[Creators#Zatharel|Zatharel]] before passing duties over to [[Creators#TheHexer|TheHexer]] early on. The final judges ended up consisting of [[Creators#chayos|chayos]], [[Creators#TheHexer|TheHexer]], [[Creators#spolendina|spolendina]], and [[Creators#ZombieKiler|ZombieKiler]].

== One-Off Events ==<br />
These events were made to be hosted only once.<br />
<br />
=== The Great Race Tournament === <br />
The Great Race Tournament, also referred to as TGR Tournament, was a one time event hosted in July 2014 by HC12345. It mainly revolved around the first map in the TGR series, The Great Race.<br />
<br />
In the event, players of all ranks were put against each other in a tournament-style bracket. They had to race in the original TGR map and whoever came first in the race would continue further into the event.<br />
<br />
The format started with round robins, followed by knockout stages later on. The winner of this event was crafterkid98. <br />
<br />
=== HC's Christmas Chase ===<br />
HC's Christmas Chase, or The Christmas Chase, was a one time event hosted on Christmas Day in 2014 by HC12345. There have been no new editions of this event ever since.<br />
<br />
The event was free for anyone to enter, even with a delayed entrance to it. It consisted of racing through 10 different [[FFA]] levels, with whoever beat them all first being the winner.<br />
<br />
The winner of this event was chunkyboy12.<br />
<br />
=== Tournament of Champions ===<br />
Tournament of Champions was a one time event hosted by corygolfanatic in March 2016. The tournament followed a similar format to that of The Christmas Chase and TGR Tournament. Players had to compete against each other in maps picked by the host. <br />

Throwback Finds was an event hosted in conjunction with the 10 year anniversary celebration which only Green+ players could participate. The event was hosted by SomePunWithChloe and rickyboy320.<br />
<br />
For the anniversary celebration, the Minr staff team opened a 2011 version of Minr's world, [[Zero]]. This allowed players to explore an old version of Zero. Throwback Finds tasked the players with a scavenger hunt to find clues that led them throughout the 2011 server, similar to The Amazing Race. Players that completed the event were rewarded with the "Throwback Hunter" title.<br />

=== DKPK Speedrunning Tournament ===<br />
The DKPK Speedrunning Tournament was a [[Discord]] hosted tournament by [[Creators#masts|masts]] and [[Creators#duckle|duckle]] where speedrunners competed to complete five [[maps]] made for the event with the fastest times possible.<br />
<br />
Across five weekends, players could join a sign in the events section of [[spawn]] to warp into a competition map. They then had 48 hours to achieve the fastest time possible on the map, done by running from the starting line to the finishing line noted by black and white concrete in the maps themselves. These times were rounded down to the nearest tick (increments of 50ms) and saved to a leaderboard that shows the top ten in every map.<br />
<br />
For the first four maps ([[Xen]], [[Crimson Keep]], [[Ice Cap]], and [[Stockpile]]), anyone could participate to get the top times. For the final map, [[Vezzano Ligure]], only the top ten players based on placement could advance. These were calculated based on the player's best three maps. The times in the final map determined overall placement for the top ten, and the top three received $25 USD Steam gift cards.<br />
<br />
==== Tournament Maps ====<br />
Five maps were made for the tournament, each created by masts and duckle.<br />
* [[Xen]]<br />
* [[Crimson Keep]]<br />
* [[Ice Cap]]<br />
* [[Stockpile]]<br />
* [[Vezzano Ligure]]<br />
<br />
=== Minr JetLag: Hide and Seek ===<br />
A bracket tournament hosted by [[Creators#BoggledToggo|BoggledToggo]] inspired by its namesake (Hide and Seek YouTube series by Jet Lag: The Game). Each match consists of four hunts, with each pair hunting each of the other team's members once. Competitors sign up in teams of two and were placed into a single-elimination bracket. Winners are determined by longest total hiding time. <br />
<br />
The tournament was hosted on a dedicated server ran by the host and uses the [https://modrinth.com/mod/hide+seek Hide and Seek mod] coded by EightSidedSquare. <br />
<br />
The summary of the matchups can be found in this [https://challonge.com/minrjetlag Challonge link]. The winner of this event were Yoghurrt & GizzeMisse.<br />

<hr />
<div>Events are limited time, server wide features available to players of all ranks or players of a specific rank. They are hosted every so often, usually by an Admin or Mod and often have special rewards for the top ranked players in them. This page covers known events and details about them. They are split into two main categories, server events and building competitions. They are listed by category then chronological order (of the first edition held).<br />
<br />
== Common Events ==<br />
These events occur more than once a year.<br />
=== Beep Test ===<br />
The beep test is a parkour event hosted randomly by Minr admins, usually HC12345, and Minr moderators. It takes place in its own arena, and can be accessed by players of any rank. It is based off the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-stage_fitness_test PACER test], which is a fitness test occasionally held during physical education classes.<br />
<br />
During the beep test, players must quickly jump across pseudo-randomly generated parkour, before it despawns. If a player falls down or doesn't make it to the other side, they become "At Risk"; if they fail again, they are eliminated. The last person alive is declared the winner and the game continues running until they die or the test ends.<br />
<br />
The parkour begins easy; over time, the parkour gets more challenging, the time between levels decreases, and the amount of levels needed to advance increases. The color of the parkour indicates its growth in difficulty, starting with white parkour, then blue, and so on, following the colors of Minr's difficulty colors. <br />
<br />
There is no reward for participating in beep tests, but there is a leaderboard system.<br />
<br />
== Yearly Events ==<br />
These events occur/occurred about once a year.<br />
=== Ninja Warrior ===<br />
Ninja Warrior is a parkour event hosted usually around twice a year by HC12345. It always takes place on Saturdays and so far has always been hosted by HC12345, with occasional help from some admins. The event is based off the TV show that has the exact same name.<br />
<br />
In Ninja Warrior, players have to complete 4 stages to receive the title of "Ninja Warrior" without falling. Some of the stages have a time limit on them for additional difficulty in their completion.<br />
<br />
Until Stage 3, the parkour rises in difficulty making Stage 3 the hardest. While Stage 4 is not very hard, it has a strict time limit that allows no room for error, making it hard for those who have gotten to it to earn the title of Ninja Warrior.<br />
<br />
The rewards for Ninja Warrior competitions include colored prefixes, Steam gifts and more.<br />
<br />
=== The Amazing Race ===<br />
Based on a TV show of the same name, The Amazing Race is an event only for Greens and up that takes place 1 to 2 times a year. It's first host was HC12345, but it has been hosted by a number of different mods/ops over the years.<br />
<br />
In The Amazing Race, contestants run around the map of Minr looking for clues. The event starts where the previous edition of it ended, and includes a first clue at the start. Using clever thinking, knowledge of the map and sometimes online tools, contestants solve the clues which lead them to more clues, all until they get to the final clue which is supposed to lead them to the end of the race.<br />
<br />
As it involves map exploration, The Amazing Race requires good knowledge of the world map as well as a fair amount of general knowledge to be able to get to the finish. Because it involves exploring the map, it is restricted to Greens and higher. <br />
<br />
Prizes include special star prefixes for the top 3 as well as occasional Steam prizes.<br />
<br />
=== Purple Comet ===<br />
Purple Comet, or Purple Coin, is an event that is occasionally hosted by rmanimal and Alphaesia. It was held anually, around August, starting in 2016 to 2019. It then received its most recent hosting of Purple Comet V in 2021.<br />
<br />
During the event, players are given a set of maps in which there are hidden "purple coins", which are purple player heads. Players must look for the coins by doing these maps. Set into one of two teams, the players compete to be the team with the most coins by the end of the event. All players that found a coin by the event's end received a temporary purple asterisk prefix, and those that were on the winning team received two.<br />
<br />
Over time with new editions, the event evolved.<br />
* Purple Comet I started out with rmanimal and rickyboy320 hiding coins and running the event, which used to be completely purple. <br />
* With Purple Comet II, rmanimal became the sole host and changed coins to purple box player heads.<br />
* Purple Comet III was the first event to co-host with Alphaesia, who was instrumental to running the event. The at the time spawn [[City Spawn]] became [[Corrupted City Spawn]], and green stars worth 3 coins were introduced.<br />
* Purple Comet IV led to a more formalized event structure, and it was the first edition to have [[Cosmetics]].<br />
* Purple Comet V added SomePunWithChloe as a third host whom helped hide coins, a spreadsheet was made for tracking maps, and the event led to [[Black Water Spawn]] being created. It was also the first version where whitelisting for the event was done, as nearly 100 players signed up for the event.<br />
<br />
=== Egg Hunt ===<br />
Egg Hunt was an event that is mainly hosted by TheHexer. It takes place around April, Easter time. In the second iteration, Egg Hunt 2.0, a competition was held that had teams find eggs, and the winning team was ilovenons and niltiac. Egg Hunt is open to players of all ranks to participate.<br />
<br />
Egg Hunt has evolved into a large open world search area, primarily created by chayos, where the player searches for eggs. In Egg Hunt 2.0, there was competition between teams of two to compete in finding eggs in a round robin style competition in certain Minr locations. The winning team received the "Egglord" title.<br />
<br />
Years after Egghunt 2019 and 2021 were hosted, they were turned into maps called [[Egghunt 2]] and [[Egghunt 3]]. Egghunt 3 still rewards players with the Eggtacular trail for 100% completion.<br />
<br />
=== Minr Sightseeing ===<br />
Minr Sightseeing is a competitive event that has been hosted by Marrimars, TheHexer, and Thogin. The event takes place in a single day and has had four iterations. One on August 15th, 2020, which was won by Bailey06 and NoSi, one on February 27th, 2021, which was won by Jaabus and spolendina, one on July 7th, 2022, which was won by 0l_ and lendkaru, and one over a week beginning April 1st, 2023, which was won by KittyCatElite. Minr Sightseeing is open to players of all [[ranks]] to participate.<br />
<br />
==== 2020 to 2022 Details ====<br />
Players can form teams of two or compete alone. The competition tasks the players with identifying pictures of certain Minr maps then going to the exact location that the picture was taken to earn a point. Winning rewards the winning team a title, and all participating players are awarded a hat.<br />
<br />
==== Cursed Sightseeing Details ====<br />
For 2023, sightseeing was changed to a week long event that began April 1st. This event, which became known as Cursed Sightseeing, was unique for featuring locations in maps that required players to perform map escapes or get out of bounds to reach the location. This event also rewarded more cosmetics than the previous iterations due to the extra difficulty in finding and reaching locations.<br />
<br />
=== Map & Map Maker of the Year ===<br />
Map & Mapmaker of the Year is an ongoing event held annually since 2020. Greenies nominate the map they feel is the best of that particular year, and the map creator who has been the most impactful in that particular year. <br />
<br />
A forum thread is posted annually, typically by rmanimal, where players nominate up to 4 maps and 4 map creators that they think are deserving of the title. These nominations are tallied and then a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dzbBJgfvTDA&embeds_referring_euri=https%3A%2F%2Fforums.minr.org%2F&source_ve_path=Mjg2NjY ranked-choice ballot] is held to determine the winners.<br />
<br />
The winners are announced in a separate thread and the winners of both categories receive a special title as a prize. The maps' FFA(+) locations are also commemorated with a "Map of the Year" or "Map of the Year Runner-Up" plaque.<br />

=== Bring Me! ===<br />
Bring Me! is an event mainly hosted by natcrackers that started in 2024. The event is based on a party game called "Bring Me" where the host asks the participants to bring an item and whoever brings it first, wins. Specifically this event, the host releases a criteria list and participants have to look for unique FFA maps on the server that fits any of the criteria. <br />
<br />
The first event (2024) was hosted on the forums page but was met with issues such as poor search/navigation and the forum page crashing. The second event (2025) was then hosted on the Minr Discord through a separate forum channel to address these issues. While the first event only had two sets of 10 criteria each, the second one had a total of 100 and introduced a leaderboard system. Special awards and mentions were given for both years to highlight notable submissions since the event awarded no formal prizes. Out of the 13 participant groups in 2025, four were able to complete all 100 criteria, namely (in order of completion): Visuumii, andrewforreal, KittyCatElite, and eseehC. <br />

== Map Competitions and Jams ==<br />
This section lists map competitions and jams. This will also include spawn competitions since they are structured similarly.<br />
<br />
=== Spawn Competitions ===<br />
==== Spawn Competition 2016 ====<br />
The Spawn Competition, hosted in June 2016, was the first of the series of build competitions organized by Minr. For the most part, the competition was organized by [https://forums.minr.org/members/chillers.6/ Chillers], but with occasional help from other ops. Only greens+ were allowed to enter.<br />
<br />
Contestants were given their own plots in the end where they had Creative Mode access for the duration of the competition. They were allowed to receive WorldEdit help from admins, but nothing too minor that could be done without any help. After the entry period was over, the spawns were submitted in a community vote to see which one was the best.<br />
<br />
The winner of the competition was [https://forums.minr.org/members/minty.510/ minty1111], and his spawn was used as the server [[Spawn|spawn]] until it was changed to [[City Spawn]]. In total, eight spawns were created during this competition. They are:<br />
# BobTheBlob1's [[Astrology Spawn]]<br />
# [[Creators#rmanimal|rmanimal's]] Volcano ([[Volcanic Spawn]])<br />

# Spiggral's Sky Castle ([[Sky Castle Spawn]])<br />
<br />
==== Spawn Competition 2019 ====<br />
With City Spawn having been used for about a year and a half, it was decided that a new main spawn should be made. The 2019 spawn competition, usually referred to as “Spawncomp” was fifth in the series of building competitions.<br />
<br />
The competitors had from May 23 to September 9 to build a spawn, with strict templates on the FFA and "Best Maps" rooms. The spawns had to be aesthetically pleasing and needed to take no more than 10-20 seconds to get to any given map genre. Unlike the previous building competitions, the winner to this event was decided by public voting, which happened for a few weeks after the deadline. The winning spawn was [[Spawn#Frozen_Spawn|Frozen Spawn]], made by chayos.<br />
<br />
A total of four spawns were created. They are:<br />
# [[Creators#chayos|chayos']] Ice Palace ([[Frozen Spawn]])<br />
# [[Creators#luckylukecraft|luckylukecraft's]] Chromatic Circuitry ([[Chromatic Circuitry Spawn]])<br />

<br />
Just like in other build competitions, competitors were given temporary creative mode. However, this time, instead of multiple plots per person, the competition was hosted on one large plot. Entries were completed by August 1st and judged by a panel of judges consisting of 5 Minr [[Admins]].<br />

These scores were averaged to give a final score for each judge, and these final scores were averaged to determine its ranking. The competition was first hosted by [[Creators#Zatharel|Zatharel]] before passing duties over to [[Creators#TheHexer|TheHexer]] early on. The final judges ended up consisting of [[Creators#chayos|chayos]], [[Creators#TheHexer|TheHexer]], [[Creators#spolendina|spolendina]], and [[Creators#ZombieKiler|ZombieKiler]].

== One-Off Events ==<br />
These events were made to be hosted only once.<br />
<br />
=== The Great Race Tournament === <br />
The Great Race Tournament, also referred to as TGR Tournament, was a one time event hosted in July 2014 by HC12345. It mainly revolved around the first map in the TGR series, The Great Race.<br />
<br />
In the event, players of all ranks were put against each other in a tournament-style bracket. They had to race in the original TGR map and whoever came first in the race would continue further into the event.<br />
<br />
The format started with round robins, followed by knockout stages later on. The winner of this event was crafterkid98. <br />
<br />
=== HC's Christmas Chase ===<br />
HC's Christmas Chase, or The Christmas Chase, was a one time event hosted on Christmas Day in 2014 by HC12345. There have been no new editions of this event ever since.<br />
<br />
The event was free for anyone to enter, even with a delayed entrance to it. It consisted of racing through 10 different [[FFA]] levels, with whoever beat them all first being the winner.<br />
<br />
The winner of this event was chunkyboy12.<br />
<br />
=== Tournament of Champions ===<br />
Tournament of Champions was a one time event hosted by corygolfanatic in March 2016. The tournament followed a similar format to that of The Christmas Chase and TGR Tournament. Players had to compete against each other in maps picked by the host. <br />
<br />
Sadly, due to time differences and other difficulties, the tournament was cancelled half-way and there was never a winner announced.<br />
<br />
=== Throwback Finds ===<br />
Throwback Finds was an event hosted in conjunction with the 10 year anniversary celebration which only Green+ players could participate. The event was hosted by SomePunWithChloe and rickyboy320.<br />
<br />
For the anniversary celebration, the Minr staff team opened a 2011 version of Minr's world, [[Zero]]. This allowed players to explore an old version of Zero. Throwback Finds tasked the players with a scavenger hunt to find clues that led them throughout the 2011 server, similar to The Amazing Race. Players that completed the event were rewarded with the "Throwback Hunter" title.<br />
<br />
=== Minr Chess Tourney 2.0 ===<br />
A chess tournament by [[Creators#AverageIPA|AverageIPA]] and [[Creators#BoggledToggo|BoggledToggo]] was hosted from August 12th to October 9th, 2023. Competitors were split into four brackets based on their online ratings and played in a double elimination format. The winner of each bracket received a Grandmaster Title, and all participants received a Participation Crown.<br />

=== DKPK Speedrunning Tournament ===<br />
The DKPK Speedrunning Tournament was a [[Discord]] hosted tournament by [[Creators#masts|masts]] and [[Creators#duckle|duckle]] where speedrunners competed to complete five [[maps]] made for the event with the fastest times possible.<br />
<br />
Across five weekends, players could join a sign in the events section of [[spawn]] to warp into a competition map. They then had 48 hours to achieve the fastest time possible on the map, done by running from the starting line to the finishing line noted by black and white concrete in the maps themselves. These times were rounded down to the nearest tick (increments of 50ms) and saved to a leaderboard that shows the top ten in every map.<br />
<br />
For the first four maps ([[Xen]], [[Crimson Keep]], [[Ice Cap]], and [[Stockpile]]), anyone could participate to get the top times. For the final map, [[Vezzano Ligure]], only the top ten players based on placement could advance. These were calculated based on the player's best three maps. The times in the final map determined overall placement for the top ten, and the top three received $25 USD Steam gift cards.<br />
<br />
==== Tournament Maps ====<br />
Five maps were made for the tournament, each created by masts and duckle.<br />

<hr />
<div>Events are limited time, server wide features available to players of all ranks or players of a specific rank. They are hosted every so often, usually by an Admin or Mod and often have special rewards for the top ranked players in them. This page covers known events and details about them. They are split into two main categories, server events and building competitions. They are listed by category then chronological order (of the first edition held).<br />
<br />
== Common Events ==<br />
These events occur more than once a year.<br />
=== Beep Test ===<br />
The beep test is a parkour event hosted randomly by Minr admins, usually HC12345, and Minr moderators. It takes place in its own arena, and can be accessed by players of any rank. It is based off the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-stage_fitness_test PACER test], which is a fitness test occasionally held during physical education classes.<br />
<br />
During the beep test, players must quickly jump across pseudo-randomly generated parkour, before it despawns. If a player falls down or doesn't make it to the other side, they become "At Risk"; if they fail again, they are eliminated. The last person alive is declared the winner and the game continues running until they die or the test ends.<br />
<br />
The parkour begins easy; over time, the parkour gets more challenging, the time between levels decreases, and the amount of levels needed to advance increases. The color of the parkour indicates its growth in difficulty, starting with white parkour, then blue, and so on, following the colors of Minr's difficulty colors. <br />
<br />
There is no reward for participating in beep tests, but there is a leaderboard system.<br />
<br />
== Yearly Events ==<br />
These events occur/occurred about once a year.<br />
=== Ninja Warrior ===<br />
Ninja Warrior is a parkour event hosted usually around twice a year by HC12345. It always takes place on Saturdays and so far has always been hosted by HC12345, with occasional help from some admins. The event is based off the TV show that has the exact same name.<br />
<br />
In Ninja Warrior, players have to complete 4 stages to receive the title of "Ninja Warrior" without falling. Some of the stages have a time limit on them for additional difficulty in their completion.<br />
<br />
Until Stage 3, the parkour rises in difficulty making Stage 3 the hardest. While Stage 4 is not very hard, it has a strict time limit that allows no room for error, making it hard for those who have gotten to it to earn the title of Ninja Warrior.<br />
<br />
The rewards for Ninja Warrior competitions include colored prefixes, Steam gifts and more.<br />
<br />
=== The Amazing Race ===<br />
Based on a TV show of the same name, The Amazing Race is an event only for Greens and up that takes place 1 to 2 times a year. It's first host was HC12345, but it has been hosted by a number of different mods/ops over the years.<br />
<br />
In The Amazing Race, contestants run around the map of Minr looking for clues. The event starts where the previous edition of it ended, and includes a first clue at the start. Using clever thinking, knowledge of the map and sometimes online tools, contestants solve the clues which lead them to more clues, all until they get to the final clue which is supposed to lead them to the end of the race.<br />
<br />
As it involves map exploration, The Amazing Race requires good knowledge of the world map as well as a fair amount of general knowledge to be able to get to the finish. Because it involves exploring the map, it is restricted to Greens and higher. <br />
<br />
Prizes include special star prefixes for the top 3 as well as occasional Steam prizes.<br />
<br />
=== Purple Comet ===<br />
Purple Comet, or Purple Coin, is an event that is occasionally hosted by rmanimal and Alphaesia. It was held anually, around August, starting in 2016 to 2019. It then received its most recent hosting of Purple Comet V in 2021.<br />
<br />
During the event, players are given a set of maps in which there are hidden "purple coins", which are purple player heads. Players must look for the coins by doing these maps. Set into one of two teams, the players compete to be the team with the most coins by the end of the event. All players that found a coin by the event's end received a temporary purple asterisk prefix, and those that were on the winning team received two.<br />
<br />
Over time with new editions, the event evolved.<br />
* Purple Comet I started out with rmanimal and rickyboy320 hiding coins and running the event, which used to be completely purple. <br />
* With Purple Comet II, rmanimal became the sole host and changed coins to purple box player heads.<br />
* Purple Comet III was the first event to co-host with Alphaesia, who was instrumental to running the event. The at the time spawn [[City Spawn]] became [[Corrupted City Spawn]], and green stars worth 3 coins were introduced.<br />
* Purple Comet IV led to a more formalized event structure, and it was the first edition to have [[Cosmetics]].<br />
* Purple Comet V added SomePunWithChloe as a third host whom helped hide coins, a spreadsheet was made for tracking maps, and the event led to [[Black Water Spawn]] being created. It was also the first version where whitelisting for the event was done, as nearly 100 players signed up for the event.<br />
<br />
=== Egg Hunt ===<br />
Egg Hunt was an event that is mainly hosted by TheHexer. It takes place around April, Easter time. In the second iteration, Egg Hunt 2.0, a competition was held that had teams find eggs, and the winning team was ilovenons and niltiac. Egg Hunt is open to players of all ranks to participate.<br />
<br />
Egg Hunt has evolved into a large open world search area, primarily created by chayos, where the player searches for eggs. In Egg Hunt 2.0, there was competition between teams of two to compete in finding eggs in a round robin style competition in certain Minr locations. The winning team received the "Egglord" title.<br />
<br />
Years after Egghunt 2019 and 2021 were hosted, they were turned into maps called [[Egghunt 2]] and [[Egghunt 3]]. Egghunt 3 still rewards players with the Eggtacular trail for 100% completion.<br />
<br />
=== Minr Sightseeing ===<br />
Minr Sightseeing is a competitive event that has been hosted by Marrimars, TheHexer, and Thogin. The event takes place in a single day and has had four iterations. One on August 15th, 2020, which was won by Bailey06 and NoSi, one on February 27th, 2021, which was won by Jaabus and spolendina, one on July 7th, 2022, which was won by 0l_ and lendkaru, and one over a week beginning April 1st, 2023, which was won by KittyCatElite. Minr Sightseeing is open to players of all [[ranks]] to participate.<br />
<br />
==== 2020 to 2022 Details ====<br />
Players can form teams of two or compete alone. The competition tasks the players with identifying pictures of certain Minr maps then going to the exact location that the picture was taken to earn a point. Winning rewards the winning team a title, and all participating players are awarded a hat.<br />
<br />
==== Cursed Sightseeing Details ====<br />
For 2023, sightseeing was changed to a week long event that began April 1st. This event, which became known as Cursed Sightseeing, was unique for featuring locations in maps that required players to perform map escapes or get out of bounds to reach the location. This event also rewarded more cosmetics than the previous iterations due to the extra difficulty in finding and reaching locations.<br />
<br />
=== Map & Map Maker of the Year ===<br />
Map & Mapmaker of the Year is an ongoing event held annually since 2020. Greenies nominate the map they feel is the best of that particular year, and the map creator who has been the most impactful in that particular year. <br />
<br />
A forum thread is posted annually, typically by rmanimal, where players nominate up to 4 maps and 4 map creators that they think are deserving of the title. These nominations are tallied and then a [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dzbBJgfvTDA&embeds_referring_euri=https%3A%2F%2Fforums.minr.org%2F&source_ve_path=Mjg2NjY ranked-choice ballot] is held to determine the winners.<br />
<br />
The winners are announced in a separate thread and the winners of both categories receive a special title as a prize. The maps' FFA(+) locations are also commemorated with a "Map of the Year" or "Map of the Year Runner-Up" plaque.<br />

=== Bring Me! ===<br />
Bring Me! is an event mainly hosted by natcrackers that started in 2024. The event is based on a party game called "Bring Me" where the host asks the participants to bring an item and whoever brings it first, wins. Specifically this event, the host releases a criteria list and participants have to look for unique FFA maps on the server that fits any of the criteria. <br />
<br />
The first event (2024) was hosted on the forums page but was met with issues such as poor search/navigation and the forum page crashing. The second event (2025) was then hosted on the Minr Discord through a separate forum channel to address these issues. While the first event only had two sets of 10 criteria each, the second one had a total of 100 and introduced a leaderboard system. Special awards and mentions were given for both years to highlight notable submissions since the event awarded no formal prizes. Out of the 13 participant groups in 2025, four were able to complete all 100 criteria, namely (in order of completion): Visuumii, andrewforreal, KittyCatElite, and eseehC. <br />

== Map Competitions and Jams ==<br />
This section lists map competitions and jams. This will also include spawn competitions since they are structured similarly.<br />
<br />
=== Spawn Competitions ===<br />
==== Spawn Competition 2016 ====<br />
The Spawn Competition, hosted in June 2016, was the first of the series of build competitions organized by Minr. For the most part, the competition was organized by [https://forums.minr.org/members/chillers.6/ Chillers], but with occasional help from other ops. Only greens+ were allowed to enter.<br />
<br />
Contestants were given their own plots in the end where they had Creative Mode access for the duration of the competition. They were allowed to receive WorldEdit help from admins, but nothing too minor that could be done without any help. After the entry period was over, the spawns were submitted in a community vote to see which one was the best.<br />
<br />
The winner of the competition was [https://forums.minr.org/members/minty.510/ minty1111], and his spawn was used as the server [[Spawn|spawn]] until it was changed to [[City Spawn]]. In total, eight spawns were created during this competition. They are:<br />
# BobTheBlob1's [[Astrology Spawn]]<br />
# [[Creators#rmanimal|rmanimal's]] Volcano ([[Volcanic Spawn]])<br />
# [[Creators#Alphaesia|Alphaesia's]] City/Town ([[City Spawn]])<br />
# Jsnick's Dungeon ([[Dungeon Spawn]])<br />
# [[Creators#Zatharel|Zatharel's]] and awkward_hamster's Summer Resort ([[Resort Spawn]])<br />
# Pro_Luma's Sea Life ([[Sea Life Spawn]])<br />
# [[Creators#minty1111|minty1111's]] Tropical Jungle ([[Minty Spawn]])<br />
# Spiggral's Sky Castle ([[Sky Castle Spawn]])<br />
<br />
==== Spawn Competition 2019 ====<br />
With City Spawn having been used for about a year and a half, it was decided that a new main spawn should be made. The 2019 spawn competition, usually referred to as “Spawncomp” was fifth in the series of building competitions.<br />
<br />
The competitors had from May 23 to September 9 to build a spawn, with strict templates on the FFA and "Best Maps" rooms. The spawns had to be aesthetically pleasing and needed to take no more than 10-20 seconds to get to any given map genre. Unlike the previous building competitions, the winner to this event was decided by public voting, which happened for a few weeks after the deadline. The winning spawn was [[Spawn#Frozen_Spawn|Frozen Spawn]], made by chayos.<br />
<br />
A total of four spawns were created. They are:<br />
# [[Creators#chayos|chayos']] Ice Palace ([[Frozen Spawn]])<br />
# [[Creators#luckylukecraft|luckylukecraft's]] Chromatic Circuitry ([[Chromatic Circuitry Spawn]])<br />
# [[Creators#pockleshetcheeto|pockleshetcheeto's]] and [[Creators#rebplane|rebplane's]] Mountain of Olympus ([[Olympus Spawn]])<br />
# [[Creators#Sulldas|Sulldas']] Mountain Resort ([[Lost in the Mail|Mountain Resort Spawn]])<br />
<br />
=== Puzzle Competitions ===<br />
==== Puzzle Competition 2017 ====<br />
The Puzzle Competition of 2017, sometimes referred to as “Zath's Puzzle Competition” or just "Puzzlecomp”, was the second in the series of build competitions. The competition was mainly hosted by Zatharel. The goal of the competition was to add more pure puzzle maps to [[FFA]].<br />
<br />
Just like in other build competitions, competitors were given temporary creative mode. However, this time, instead of multiple plots per person, the competition was hosted on one large plot. Entries were completed by August 1st and judged by a panel of judges consisting of 5 Minr [[Admins]].<br />
<br />
A total of thirteen puzzles were created and entered into the competition. They are, in order of placement:<br />
<br />

==== Puzzle Competition 2020 ====<br />
The 2020 Puzzle Competition, usually referred to as "puzzlecomp" or "puzzlecomp2," was seventh in the series of building competitions and the second to be focused on puzzle building.<br />
<br />
The competitors had from June 1st to August 31st to create their puzzle maps. For this iteration of puzzlecomp, mixed puzzles were permitted. All competitors had to construct their puzzles on one large plot of land in Theta. Maps were judged on both gameplay and aesthetics, with judges giving both categories a score out of 10. These scores were averaged to give a final score for each judge, and these final scores were averaged to determine its ranking. The competition was first hosted by [[Creators#Zatharel|Zatharel]] before passing duties over to [[Creators#TheHexer|TheHexer]] early on. The final judges ended up consisting of [[Creators#chayos|chayos]], [[Creators#TheHexer|TheHexer]], [[Creators#spolendina|spolendina]], and [[Creators#ZombieKiler|ZombieKiler]]. [[Creators#djnysted|djnysted]] also contributed to judging before dropping out. The winning map was [[Jump For Joy]] by [[Creators#henniboy321|henniboy321]].<br />
<br />
A total of twenty two maps were created. They are:<br />

== One-Off Events ==<br />
These events were made to be hosted only once.<br />
<br />
=== The Great Race Tournament === <br />
The Great Race Tournament, also referred to as TGR Tournament, was a one time event hosted in July 2014 by HC12345. It mainly revolved around the first map in the TGR series, The Great Race.<br />
<br />
In the event, players of all ranks were put against each other in a tournament-style bracket. They had to race in the original TGR map and whoever came first in the race would continue further into the event.<br />
<br />
The format started with round robins, followed by knockout stages later on. The winner of this event was crafterkid98. <br />
<br />
=== HC's Christmas Chase ===<br />
HC's Christmas Chase, or The Christmas Chase, was a one time event hosted on Christmas Day in 2014 by HC12345. There have been no new editions of this event ever since.<br />
<br />
The event was free for anyone to enter, even with a delayed entrance to it. It consisted of racing through 10 different [[FFA]] levels, with whoever beat them all first being the winner.<br />
<br />
The winner of this event was chunkyboy12.<br />
<br />
=== Tournament of Champions ===<br />
Tournament of Champions was a one time event hosted by corygolfanatic in March 2016. The tournament followed a similar format to that of The Christmas Chase and TGR Tournament. Players had to compete against each other in maps picked by the host. <br />
<br />
Sadly, due to time differences and other difficulties, the tournament was cancelled half-way and there was never a winner announced.<br />
<br />
=== Throwback Finds ===<br />
Throwback Finds was an event hosted in conjunction with the 10 year anniversary celebration which only Green+ players could participate. The event was hosted by SomePunWithChloe and rickyboy320.<br />
<br />
For the anniversary celebration, the Minr staff team opened a 2011 version of Minr's world, [[Zero]]. This allowed players to explore an old version of Zero. Throwback Finds tasked the players with a scavenger hunt to find clues that led them throughout the 2011 server, similar to The Amazing Race. Players that completed the event were rewarded with the "Throwback Hunter" title.<br />
<br />
=== Minr Chess Tourney 2.0 ===<br />
A chess tournament by [[Creators#AverageIPA|AverageIPA]] and [[Creators#BoggledToggo|BoggledToggo]] was hosted from August 12th to October 9th, 2023.

=== DKPK Speedrunning Tournament ===<br />
The DKPK Speedrunning Tournament was a [[Discord]] hosted tournament by [[Creators#masts|masts]] and [[Creators#duckle|duckle]] where speedrunners competed to complete five [[maps]] made for the event with the fastest times possible.<br />
<br />
Across five weekends, players could join a sign in the events section of [[spawn]] to warp into a competition map. They then had 48 hours to achieve the fastest time possible on the map, done by running from the starting line to the finishing line noted by black and white concrete in the maps themselves. These times were rounded down to the nearest tick (increments of 50ms) and saved to a leaderboard that shows the top ten in every map.<br />
<br />
For the first four maps ([[Xen]], [[Crimson Keep]], [[Ice Cap]], and [[Stockpile]]), anyone could participate to get the top times. For the final map, [[Vezzano Ligure]], only the top ten players based on placement could advance. These were calculated based on the player's best three maps. The times in the final map determined overall placement for the top ten, and the top three received $25 USD Steam gift cards.<br />
<br />
==== Tournament Maps ====<br />
