Land of Omicron's new Pletopia world to launch soon, co-owner Bucket introduces PPP program
LAND OF OMICRON - Players are excited as they await the opening of the newest world in the Omicron network, Pletopia.
The world will open in 1.6, and will replace Plebeius as the primary public world of the network. It will mark a new chapter in Omicron history when it opens. It came as a surprise when Bucket became a co-owner of the server.
Bucket has been giving out hints. The server will be economy-themed, and Greek/Roman-themed as well. He has revealed that there will be clans, and lots of art, including an Omicron anthem! The world continues to wait for the opening...Bucket has revealed some details, but has kept others secret. He has given one clue each day.
Meanwhile, Bucket has also introduced the PPP program. PPP stands for Popularity Partnership Program, which is a unique program that will potentially increase the popularity of servers.
The servers that get accepted will have their own forum on the Omicron website, and it will essentially be partners with Omicron, as the server will have an embassy on the Pletopia world, as well as share players and resources. The owner will still have total control over the server. The server may also recieve starter chests if requested.
To apply, PM Bucket with the server. The server must have 50 posts on the thread as well as be at least a month old. The owner needs 100 reputable posts, as well as be a member for 2+ months on the forums.
Pie Games was the first server in the PPP program, and the application for Cheeseworld has been approved and the forums are being created...

Cheeseworld crime wave ends, Cheeserails project continues
CHEESEWORLD - The crime wave has been going about a month. Thousands of dollars worth of items stolen. But it's all over now. The culprit has been found, and the items have been recovered.
Players are happy to get their beloved items back. Notably, Heartbeat got back nine shops she won in the lottery last week, the shops containing a total of 60 million dollars.
Cheeseburger is offering financial compensation to those affected. Players can now play normally again, and there is no longer a need to keep items all secured.
Meanwhile, the Cheeserails project is now in full swing. The first rails have now been laid, and about 200 blocks have been laid so far. The first priority is to connect the spawn continent, then to expand and reach the eastern islands, including Darkfur's spectacular Glory Island and Nicktbl's island, among others.
The railway will become a significant connector across the server, making transportation much easier. It is currently a long trip by boat and walking to get from spawn to Glory Island, days in length, but when the railway is completed the journey will be a fast handcar commute and will take just minutes to complete.
The railway is eventually expected to go around the 4x world.

What's in 1.6-Forums Game!
On the forums there's a game to guess what's in 1.6! Pick three things (be specific-you can elaborate on your guess of things dave has confirmed but you can't say just them) and hope for the best! Beta testers can't take part. This game has been set up by Skeeve.
If you haven't joined the forums, then sign up at theblockheads.net/forum and go to general discussion. The thread is in there.
My bets are this:
1. JLAVS dance mat.
2. Llamas.
3. Cake.
In addition, you can now host parties with llamas dancing on dance mats eating cake.
Good luck!

FORUMS: Multiple Account Detection In Place!
Fair warning to anyone who's been creating multiple accounts to make themselves more popular/more rep/for fun! Milla has just added in a spam account detection which will detect when you log in to two or more different accounts. Some forumers have relations on the forums which means they may occasionally share a device.
From the forums:
From the forums:
We have a plugin in place now that detects when more than one person logs in from the same device. It's picked up a few of you that share devices, and I'm aware of those.
Others look suspiciously like they're posting as more than one person. I have emailed one of you, and will email two more shortly.
If you think your legitimate use of one device between two or more of you will be detected, please save me the trouble of hitting you up when it happens by emailing support at theblockheads.net telling me which forum users use one of your devices, so I don't come after you needlessly. It's clearly perfectly fine to share devices with others. I just need to know, because the forum will detect it now.
If you have more than one account without permission, please come to me by emailing support at theblockheads.net before I find you, because if I find you before you own up there will be a punitive action taken against you. If you come to me first there will be none.
This moratorium will be in effect indefinitely, but for it to cover your multiple accounts you have to come to me and own up before I bust you.
Hello World!
Hey guys, it's Sam.Boyer here!
I've just joined the Blockheads Herald team and I'm looking forward to making some posts on here. I'll make them every now and then, but I'm not really sure what'll be in them. Some news, some opinions and maybe... just maybe... there might be some exclusive videos. *gasp* Who said that???
But there will be bacon. Lots of bacon.
See?
Anyway, just stopped by to say hello!
