Brohoof Summer Sun Celebration 2012

Brohoof.com is hosting yet another Minecraft event, and you know what that means! Tons of partying, tournaments, quests, etc, and if their past events have been any indicator there might be a hostile invasion or two. It started at 12:00 PM and should last for about 3 hours, although chances are the event might go far over the petty limit if enough people attend and stick around for long enough, as the limit is somewhat flexible. There's also a post over at their forums with far more detailed info as to what you can expect, which can be found here.

Why not go on and be a part of the fun, eh? If I recall correctly the server IP is mc.brohoof.com (and if that doesn't work there is always 38.108.185.195 as a backup), so if you own Minecraft then you really have no excuse for not attending.

Brohoof Grand Galloping Gala Event

The folks over at the Brohoof.com Minecraft server recently had an amazing Minecraft event that they named the "Grand Galloping Gala 2012". Apparently from the video above and their article at The Daily Brohoof it was quite the event, with over 200 people attending and a bunch of fun games and contests to entertain the guests. And after all that, Queen Chrysalis crashed the party by invading!

Also, I nearly forgot, but the event was set up because they're recreating Equestria again. That's right, they're tossing out their current recreation of the fantastic world of My Little Pony and rebuilding it entirely from scratch! Hopefully this new version should be of a similar quality to the old version (perhaps even better!), or that they'll keep some kind of backup of this version in case they want the old one back.

Canterlot in Minecraft

Over at the Brohoof.com Minecraft server they have recently finished an amazing, full-scale replica of Canterlot Castle, and it's stunning. Apparently it's been under construction since August, and they had a very large opening party (167 were on at the max, the most they've ever had).

You can visit it by connecting to their server and typing /warp canterlot, and if you just feel the need to see some screenshots, you can find them in a nifty gallery after the break.




Apparently, it also uses a custom texture pack that you can find for yourself at http://www.planetminecraft.com/texture_pack/love-and-tolerance-texture-pack/. Go on and check it out!
