Oct 21, 2013 Hiring

We are hiring!
The deadline to apply for a position is Nov 21 at 3PM US Eastern Time.

We are looking for talented Bukkit minigame developers to expand our team for future and current projects.
Flexibility to work on a variety of project is necessary, you must be experienced and willing to put at least 20 to 45 hours a week.
Working at the Hypixel Network is fun, challenging and you get to see thousands of players appreciate your work. This opportunity will only last for a few weeks, good luck!

This is a paid per hour position and we are only accepting people over 18 years old. However, if you have the talent and experience you can still email us, we can work around it.
Send your résumé at [email protected] - please also state your age, your Github account, a sample of your work and an explanation why you want to work at Hypixel.
I may repeat myself, but we are looking for people with experience only.
I might not be replying to emails for rejected applications, sorry in advance.

Oct 11, 2013 Halloween Pet Pack & Boosters

In an effort to keep having our VIP passes last a lifetime, we have decided to add boosters and a new pet pack to our store to help us cover the increasing costs of server maintenance, developement, and expansion.

The Halloween Pet Pack includes four awesome pets such as the witch, a spider, a skeleton and the withered skeleton! As for the new Boosters, they are available in both a 3-Day and a 7-Day version.

Thank you all for supporting the Hypixel project and we will keep adding new games and maps in the very near future!

Click here to visit the updated store.
Reminder: The Halloween Pet Pack is only available for a limited time.

Oct 8, 2013 Double Coins Weekend coming up!

Here we go guys, another Double Coins Weekend coming up!
Because last time we had a DCW the Mojang login servers acted up, we decided to push it back to this upcoming weekend.

Starting Friday the 11 at 11:59pm US Eastern Time and ending on 11:59pm US Eastern Time on Sunday the 13.
That means regular users will get 2x, VIP 4x and VIP+ 5x the coins in all minigames.
Tell all your friends and see you this weekend!

We will also add a bunch of maps to bring new content and maybe a big special surprise if we can prepare it in time

--------------------------------------
Why are we using base mutiplier ?

Example 100 coins is the base earned per win.

base * (DCW) = 200 coins
100 * (2) = 200 coins

base * (DCW + VIP) = 400 coins
100 * (2 + 2) = 400 coins

base * (DCW + VIP+) = 500 coins
100 * (2 + 3) = 500 coins

base * (DCW + VIP+ + FutureFeature) = 700 coins
100 * (2 + 3 + 2) = 700 coins

base * (DCW + VIP+ + FutureFeature + AchievementProc) = 900 coins
100 * (2 + 3 + 2 + 2) = 900 coins

FutureFeature is something we are working on, along with the AchievementProc, so as you can see, sometimes instead of getting 100 coins you could actually get 900 coins, this is quite insane.
Now if we didn't use additional multiplier, that number would be 2400 coins, giving us a nightmare to balance every shops in the game or making it impossible for regular players.

Thank you all for participating, in the first hour we broke our old record once again by having over 12,100 players online. Unfortunately, shortly after, the server was hit by an outage that disturbed the tournament for a bit. We are sorry for that and we will make up for it by having a Double Coins Weekend next weekend. Lastly, your participation in the tournament allowed us to gather enough information to make a new rating algorithm for the next tournament, a new system that will help people who don't have much time to play, to get a chance in the next tournament.
Once again, thank you all for coming and MCProHosting for their immense support, it was a great weekend.
