Season 1 is live: The Amazing Digital Circus

The Drop Hole is open and Season 1 has begun. We are still early. The world is young, the factions are still finding their footing, and most of the map is unclaimed. A good time to arrive.

What this server is

The Drop Hole is a roleplay Minecraft server built tight to a Discord server. The two are not separate things. Chat crosses both ways, your faction is a Discord role and an in-game allegiance at the same time, and a custom bot tracks your character, your activity, and your faction's treasury. You write an original character, pick one of four factions, and play.

What you do from there is your call. Claim a couple of chunks and build in peace, where neutral land is protected, no PvP, no raids, just survival and whatever you want to make of it. Or plant a Raidable Designation Flag and opt into the other half of the server: a raid system where bases have real block health, raiders breach with specialized TNT, and defenders answer with turrets, alarms, and traps. Both are first-class ways to play, and most players end up doing some of each.

The bigger picture

Factions. Four of them: The Abstracted, The Cainiacs, The Sillys, The Performers. Every job you work feeds your faction's treasury, and the faction votes together on how that treasury gets spent.

The Outlands. Past the faction world's border lies a lawless band of the map. No claims, no protection, PvP always on. Higher risk, fewer rules, and the only place a hidden base truly stays hidden.

Seasons. Every couple of months the theme wipes and resets, with a new spawn, a new story, and new characters. Your builds out in the survival world carry over. Right now the theme is The Amazing Digital Circus.

Getting in

Java or Bedrock, both work. Connect to play.thedrophole.live.

Start in Discord. That is where you build your character, pick your faction, and link your account: https://discord.gg/RScHkzr7ns

Onboarding takes about a minute. Link your Minecraft name once you are in, and the rest of the server opens up.
