CubeRecap: July

[Cynamooo]

Hai everyone! It's finally here! It’s been a while, as I’ve been extremely busy with stuff, but I still wanted to make sure you guys get what you’ve been waiting for. The situation I was in also made me realize to not rush CubeRecaps in the future. Therefore, I'll most likely post CubeRecaps during the first week of that month, not necessarily the first day. I still hope you will enjoy CubeRecap: July!

July was filled with amazing content, new promotions, new promotions, new promotions, and oh, can't forget new promotions! Once you open the spoiler, you will see what I’m talking about

July was a rather quiet month regarding the number of suggestions, but that doesn’t mean the quality was bad! As usual, I have collected the four most well-received/implementable suggestions, with one honorable mention! Before we actually dive into the suggestions, I still have to announce the winner from CubeRecap: June. This month's winner is... @Siftenly and his crew with their new game idea! Their game idea won with 63% of the votes, well done! You can vote for this month's best suggestion over here: https://www.strawpoll.me/20900804

Network - Notification when you complete an easy/medium/hard objective
https://www.cubecraft.net/threads/notification-when-you-complete-an-easy-medium-hard-objective-edited.252620/​

A small suggestion, but really beneficial! I sometimes have the same issue as well. I try to complete a challenge, think I’m done, only to find out I need to break one more egg. This gives people the opportunity to continue the game in one flow, instead of constantly checking the progress. It also gives them the opportunity to stay in one game, when two challenges are separated between easy and hard for example. Good suggestion, @Lozora!

Duels - Play Again/Auto Mode buttons for PvP
https://www.cubecraft.net/threads/play-again-auto-mode-buttons-for-pvp-duels.253511/​

A suggestion that doesn’t really affect me, but I can understand why people would like to see this feature getting added. Sometimes you have a very short duels battle, but once the fight is over, you find out you need to return to the lobby and wait for a while to be able to play again. This idea can have some fans and some haters, but the idea behind it is solid, and the community has proven it. Great work, @Meiske!

Network - Lobby Games! - Parkour, Vortex, and more!
https://www.cubecraft.net/threads/lobby-games-parkour-vortex-and-more.252132/​

Another thread that seems to be received very well by a lot of people! @Axyy made a thread with suggestions regarding lobby games. He revamped the Vortex Jump and the Parkour, but he also made two new suggestions: Hide and Seek and Lobby Questions! There’s too much to cover in this thread, so make sure you check out the original thread!

Network - Cubelets can be bought at once with a new system
https://www.cubecraft.net/threads/cubelets-can-buy-at-once-with-a-new-system.252016/​

Haven’t seen a suggestion regarding Cubelets in a while! This suggestion would make the lives (and fingers) of some players a lot better. @YoshiGameplayX suggests making it easier to instantly craft higher Cubelets. Right now, in order to craft an Uber Cubelet, you need click a lot of time before you can actually craft Uber Cubelets. With this idea, if you have a sufficient amount of points, it crafts the Super or Uber Cubelet immediately for you. Awesome idea!

Honorable Mention - Java/Bedrock tag
https://www.cubecraft.net/threads/java-bedrock-tag.251463/​

A very small suggestion, yet it got amazing support from a lot of people. @MrTommy his idea was to add new tags to staff members on Discord, displaying the versions they play/moderate on. This makes it easier for players to find the appropriate staff member who can help them. Tiny, but a great idea!

I love to see the amount of time and dedication that goes into this! There have been so many map creations, that I decided to give it its own section this month. I’m very surprised by the quality of these maps, so please enjoy the top 5 maps of July!

https://www.cubecraft.net/threads/duels-pizza.250605/

Spoiler: Example

Our first map was made by @Fqnta and his friend (Minecraft_Makker)! I absolutely love this design! The random slice gives it more dynamics in my opinion. A tip I would give here is to maybe experiment a bit with the colors. Other than that, an amazing map!

https://www.cubecraft.net/threads/team-skywars-under-the-sea.254371/

Spoiler: Example

One way to bring your childhood back to life is to obviously use it as a Minecraft map! This piece of art made by @BlazingEldos gives us a closer look at Bikini Bottom. We have all of the houses and we even have the Crusty Crab. Even small little Jellyfish are flying around. Amazing map!

https://www.cubecraft.net/threads/blockwars-dragons.254377/

Spoiler: Example

Were going from the bottom of the ocean to the fiery depths of hell. @ɹ3puƎzʇI took his time to make a very cool hot battle between two dragons. This map looks like an awesome map for Blockwars. Just make sure you don’t get burned by their flames!

https://www.cubecraft.net/threads/solo-skywars-art.254584/

Spoiler: Example

I love colors and this map is really relaxing to look at. The combination of all the different colors, together with the style of the map really makes it a good map to play on. I would absolutely love to see this map getting added. Well done, @Sergiio12

https://www.cubecraft.net/threads/solo-skywars-labyrinth.254694/

Spoiler: Example

Last, but not least, a very original map, built by @Exarpo! It’s not the most colorful design, but it’s definitely a very unique design. Kind of reminds me of Stonehenge. Anyhow, an original concept that definitely deserves a spot in this list! Awesome work!

As always, we finish our CubeRecap by taking a look at the top 5 memes of the month! July was very juicy, so let's jump straight into the meme section!

https://www.cubecraft.net/threads/ccg-memes.10860/page-426#post-1186497

Spoiler: Meme

We're starting the list with a MinerWare meme from @Megaaa! One of the very few memes that actually made me laugh because of the dry humor! Whilst not only being funny, this meme is also very relatable, especially to all of you guys who actually hide in the snow, I'm watching you...

https://www.cubecraft.net/threads/ccg-memes.10860/page-424#post-1183921

Spoiler: Meme

How astronauts view CubeCraft from space! In 2022, CubeCraft will consist of more staff members than actual members. A very good goal to strive towards, so this meme will only motivate us more! Thank you @Story, very cool!

https://www.cubecraft.net/threads/ccg-memes.10860/page-424#post-1183966

Spoiler: Meme

Ahh, as if we haven't had enough Helper memes yet! At least this time, it's about the insane amount of Helpers we got, not the actual candidates stereotypes applying for it. Yes, we're very proud of our 19 Helper-wave and expect at least 30 in our next wave! obviously this is a joke. Thank you @Younisco, very cool!

https://www.cubecraft.net/threads/ccg-memes.10860/page-422#post-1180535

Spoiler: Meme

Everyone would be in danger if they would have to compete against this group. I would honestly get a mental breakdown if I would see that.. Something that really stood out to me and therefore deserved a spot in here. Good job, @ɹ3puƎzʇI!

https://www.cubecraft.net/threads/ccg-memes.10860/page-423#post-1182315

Spoiler: Meme

Totally didn't have the same issue when looking for the thread Anyhow, another meme that actually made me laugh, simply because of the visuals. Keep in mind this meme dates back to July, so hopefully people have gotten used to it by now. Very good meme, @Smoothlyy!

We've already come to an end.. I sincerely hope you guys enjoyed it, even though I am like a month behind. Anyhow, keep in mind my DM's are always open for feedback and suggestions! Thanks for the continuous support guys! Much love!
