(spawn hotel built by myself and @anonymousvillain)
As the server develops (and apparently my game has automatic shaders now?) I thought it might be cool to make a sort of realm newsletter, that way something's happening on the Minecraft side blog and people's creations can get recognized :]
(more pictures of spawn, staircase by @caeb-ruu and community lava farm by @ghostsofmemories)
Most everything on the server is still under development since we're all in survival mode, which means it's getting cooler by the day as more new builds are made.
I'll start from my area, I've been working on a lot of stuff around my base, including a wizardly enchanting building (got full bookshelves, you're free to stop by and enchant your stuff!) as well as a mine and xp farm not pictured here, but I hope to contribute some more to spawn as I go on. :3
My nearest neighbor is @anonymousvillain who's working on a cool layered sort of treetop base design (which the creepers unfortunately enjoy).
The area we live in is a bit of a trek from spawn so I made some docks and added some paths that connect up to one @trouble-warning made to their base from spawn. The jungle scenery around there is really pretty.
Speaking of, here's Trouble's hobbit hole! Its a very cute design, complete with a gravestone for the unfortunately diseased Kiwi the parrot.
A similar distance from spawn in the opposite direction is the house of @eatingsuperglue, a pretty build with a little storage shed in the back and some donkeys. :]
Probably furthest from spawn is @ghostsofmemories, he built a very long path to his base which has an impressive farm and a lot of cool soul torches/lanterns.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the first ever Whimsical Realm Newsletter, so let me know what you think! Apologies if I forgot any builds or people, but hopefully this is a good showcase of some highlights. I'm not sure when the next one will be but I'm considering doing them monthly, so if you have anything that didn't get featured here that you want to be shown in a future one (or want to opt out of being included) let me know. I'll probably open this blog up to submissions, so if you have any screenshots of your own from around the server feel free to submit them :). If you're a member of the server, I recommend checking the realm stories tab on Minecraft if you haven't already, you can post on there about server happenings and occasionally catch one from other members.
The server is still quite small right now, but it's always open to new members, you're welcome to join if this newsletter peaked your interest. There's still a lot of interesting stuff to explore not pictured here.
Should I start doing like progress update things/photodumps and other posts about the Minecraft realm every once and a while?
Yeah that would be cool!
No that would be weird

I'd mostly do it about my projects and community stuff but if you wanted to be featured you could let me know (somehow my game has shaders I don't remember installing? maybe it came with an update? Idk but things are very pretty :3)
I have acquired Minecraft Realms so now I can make a Whimsical Minecraft Server that doesn't require tons of rigmarole to play on.

How to Join
In theory, you should be able to click here to join
Or copy and paste this link: https://realms.gg/wsGptxNvWhP3sAc
Platforms Supported:
From what I have seen, realms are cross platform as long as you are playing bedrock edition. So unfortunately I don't think java is supported, although I could be wrong.
For more info or questions, check out the intro of this sideblog I've made for minecraft!
*The location of the realm varies based on best connection, it is not indicative of where the realm actually is hosted*
Before I deleted my old blog (@mossy enigma), some of you may remember my Minecraft server
(If you don’t and want to join that’s fine too!)
It’s a bit inconvenient bc of how it’s set up, but if anyone wants to join at any point or play again I’m putting all of the details about it back up here!
How to Join
The server is made for bedrock so the instructions will also be for that edition but im pretty sure you can also access it on java.
Just go to your servers tab and click “add a new server” and then type in these details:
Sever Name: WhimsicalServer
Server Address: WhimsicalServer.aternos.me
Port: 62087
Other Details
Because of how this server is set up, if no one is online then the server shuts off. If at any point you want to play on it and find its offline, just send an ask/message to me and I can turn it on :> (ik it’s inconvenient sorry)
