MazeDrop
Summary
Do you like parkour in Minecraft, but you're getting tired of doing the same routes over and over? Well just like Mio we changed that, we gave the popular sport a twist and a few drops! Like the name suggests this is a game where a maze drops, but not how you think. The game is very simple to understand and even easier to play! The main objective is to be the first one to the top, but how you get there isn't as easy as it sounds. New blocks are constantly dropping in random places.You not only have to be good at parkour, but you also have to be fast! If you fall there might not always be a way back up, and if you take too long to make that jump...well you might go from first to not even finishing! This game is very easy, fun, and fast paced just try it for yourself.
O and don't worry there's some trolls for the beasts out there like falling sand, fake block drops, and tower sitting prevention!

Hi i olso have this problem when THE game say start no sand Will spawn THE game doesn't start
What is this error? Please help me!
work on 1.7.2?
Cannot set up the game, every set up command gets a "An internal error occurred while trying to perform this command". Any chance of an update please? Running Spigot 1.7.5

I can't create a maze, internal error...
Uh, still got a weird error. Can't play MazeDrop at all now. http://pastebin.com/R3i6s96M
I made a game with a 2-player minimum in config, and when I went to join it I got this:
Sounds pretty scary.
Hello, I'm getting some errors with some commands.

Is there something wrong? Thanks :)
But its whatever, I'm getting new better ideas everyday so it doesn't really bother me much.
@GumbyDammit
I dont do copies so when i found that there was a dodgeball plugin with all the features i was going to put in i abandoned it
@parmleyhunt
Ehhhh, that doesn't sound as glamourous and dynamic, does it? Whatever. Chive on!
Edit: I just creeped your Facebook page and I see you have a Dodgeball plugin. What happened to it? Bukkit doesn't seem to show it.
@GumbyDammit
no its Hunter Parmley
@parmleyhunt
Fantastic. Thank you. BTW is your name really Parmley Hunt? That would make an awesome English spy name.
I'm sorry I should really add a config description section, but no walls, floor, and ceiling pretain to the type of blocks....you could also drop the height to between 15 and 20 and make it 10x10 instead of 15x15...the area of the game has more significance on how long the game lasts than the dropHeight does. Hopefully this helped you :)
I run a private server for local schoolkids age 8-13. Your mini-game looks like fun for them but I'm concerned that the average game takes 30-60 minutes. I've looked at the config to make the game faster by lowering the dropHeight from 40 to something between 10 and 20. Can you please explain the significance of the config entries 'walls' and 'floor' and are they related to dropHeight?
Thanks to everyone that is giving feedback and donating, it helps a lot and makes it feel like im not wasting my time.
But if you really need to set em up now you have to put the cursor one the one with [MazeDrop] and type the command. I was going to do it by click but there's more chance for error and lag I might look into the other option but as of now its line of sight.

The signs do not work as of 1.7, they will work as of 1.8 and it will be in the new setup video :)
I just want to know if it works. And how. SHould i put 3 signs on a wall and type the command, while looking at them? I did it, and it is not working.
