Hello everyone,
Just some updates



So the updates,
Firetop Main Server at mc.firetopgames.com is live again! Which means that you can now join it again, I've had it running all of last night without a single error in console. Seems to be as stable as I can build a server. Which means hopefully! No more crashing at all. But we may still need to do some reboots every now and then. So don't expect the server to be on for 24/7 for 1 year of anything. 
As for the hardcore server. We believe we will discontinue the Firetop Hardcore Server. We are not sure yet if it will be shut down for good. Although i did make a backup of the world. So if we ever do want to start it up again. You'll join exactly where you left off! Give us some feedback on what you think about closing the hardcore server.

We have also added a cool new feature called "Vote4Diamonds" Which if you have not seen or heard of before. Allows you to vote for the server. Supporting the server, and in return we give you 4 Diamonds and 400$ in MC money. Which is given automatically and you can vote every 24 hours! Which means everyday you can get a free 4 Diamonds and 400$. BUT remember to be online when you vote to get your reward! Or else you will need to wait another 24 Hours. This feature can be found in the forums or here: http://firetopgames.com/en/pages/vote
Minecraft 1.3 News Updates,
Well. Snapshot 12w21a of 1.3 was released yesterday. Adding some cool features into the game. Like NPC trading and new ores! Also today Minecraft 1.3 Snapshot12w21b was released. So because they are still changing many things we have not officially started working on the 1.3 server just yet. Although I will say that i have most of the backend of the server working. (with plugins and such) And Blayde is working on the layout for the new 1.3 city and plots! So if you want to ask about the world of 1.3 He might be the guy to ask right now.
As soon as the snapshots stop changing so many things. Like Biome codes we will start building the official 1.3 Server.
For more info on what was changed in the 1.3 update or to download a copy of the snapshots.
"Hey Joel! I hear Firetop may have a Firetop MC Client" If you thought this to yourself. Then your rumors may be true


Yes Aareo (Deimos) Is working on a custom Firetop MC Client! Which will give you guys many cool features to look forward too! If you haven't seen what we have done already.
Check it out on the post here: http://firetopgames.com/en/threads/weve-got-capes-c.447/
Don't forget to request what you want to see in the client! If we agree its a good idea to add. we may build it into the client for release.
Also remember to check out our new videos on the new FiretopGames YouTube Channel!

I think that's about it for now everyone. Let us know some feedback!
