# \ud83d\udee0\ufe0f NotTheServersFault<\/p>\n

**The ultimate “unfair” Minecraft challenge plugin.**<\/p>\n

![Version](https:\/\/modrinth.com\/plugin\/nottheserversfault)<\/p>\n

![Platform](https:\/\/papermc.io)
\n![Java](https:\/\/www.oracle.com\/java\/)<\/p>\n

### \u2753 Overview
\n**NotTheServersFault** is a unique challenge plugin designed for content creators or friends who want a bit of chaotic fun. The goal is simple: **Get a Diamond Block.** <\/p>\n

However, the world is full of “glitches” and reality-bending twists. From fake players in chat to blocks that refuse to stay broken, it creates an atmosphere of server lag that is actually part of the game.<\/p>\n

### \ud83c\udfc6 Competition
\nThis plugin is built for **multiple players** to compete at once.
\n– **The Lobby:** Everyone starts in a glass box at Y=6700 with Interstellar-style music.
\n– **Invincibility:** The lobby is a safe zone; damage and PvP are disabled. (obvious)
\n– **Ready Up:** Use `\/start` to mark yourself as ready.
\n– **Winning:** The first person to obtain a **Diamond Block** wins, and the challenge ends.
\n– **Reset:** The plugin automatically resets the world once a winner is crowned.<\/p>\n

### \ud83c\udf11 The Twists<\/p>\n

\nClick to reveal the “glitches” \u26a0\ufe0f<\/b><\/summary>\n

1. **Block Desync:** Common blocks like Stone or Dirt might “revert” instantly after being broken.
\n2. **Cursed Crafting:** 10% chance for crafts to fail and give you “trash” instead.
\n3. **The Secret Diamond Ore:** Diamond Ore gives Dirt. Diamonds are found by mining a random **Secret Ore** (Gold, Redstone, Lapis, or Emerald) that changes every time the server starts.
\n4. **Mob Ambush:** Mining the Secret Ore up close triggers scary sounds and an immediate ambush of Zombies, Skeletons, and Witches!
\n5. **Daylight Spawns:** Hostile mobs spawn near you during the day and are immune to sunlight.
\n6. **Ghost Players:** Realistic fake players join, chat, and leave to mess with your head.
\n7. **Inventory Shuffle:** Your inventory randomly shuffles every 5 minutes.
\n8. **Vanishing Structures:** Villages and structures disappear when you get too close.
\n9. **Sun Immunity:** Monsters are permanently protected from fire and sunlight.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n
