quicksand.sign - Create Join Signs!
First you want to build an arena. A good size arena has a few different levels, but yours can have as many as you want. Your arena floor must consist of 2 layers: a layer of tnt, and a layer of sand or gravel on top. Make two or three more layers under the first one until you think your players will be satisfied with what you've made. When your arena is complete, add a layer of water under your bottom layer. When players fall in water, their game is over and they lose. After that is done, go to the top layer and run command /qs setspawn. This is where players will spawn when the game starts. To set the place where players go before and after the game, use command /qs setlobby. Now you're good to go! Use a Join Sign or use the join command to play the game! After the winner is announced, the arena will regenerate itself so you can play again! Happy running!
What is it?
Quicksand is a unique plugin based off of the popular minigame TNTRUN. The goal of the game is to run across a layer of sand and gravel without falling through the holes that appear. When players move, the blocks under them disappear - creating hazards in the arena floor. If a player falls through a hole, they move on to the next layer. The game continues until they fall through the last layer and into a pool of water. When players hit water, their game is over and they are taken out of the arena. The last player still playing is the winner!You may have seen people like SkyDoesMinecraft play TNTRUN, and now YOU can join in on the fun!

quicksand.sign - Create Join Signs!
Join Signs
If you don't want your players using /qs join to join the game, you can use Join Signs. To make one, simply place a sign and make the first line say [Quicksand]. Second line should be the name of the arena you want players to join. Next, simply leave all other lines blank. You'll need permission quicksand.sign to make a Join Sign though. Your players don't need anything to use them.Setting up the game

Please don't post bugs or ideas here. POST IT IN THE FORUMS!
Also don't suggest multiple arenas. That's the #1 suggested idea already.
Please let people make multiple arenas :D
Huge problem with camping. Player can move onto block and block wont disappear. It needs to be fixed or add some time before that player dies/is kicked from the game.
It need a auto gift for the winner :)
Please add multiple arenas! That would be amazing! When the plugin updates to 1.7.2?
Also could you add customisable signs in the config? Only because these dont stand out much!
We set up the game, and it doesn't reset?
@FireBreath15
Ok thanks!! i thought the plugin just didnt work lol. Next update please add multiple arenas that would be so awesome! GOOD PLUGIN!
@FireBreath15
Please, Please add the ability to add Multiple arenas, It would make the plugin so much better.
***ATTENTION 1.4.8 USERS***
I may have failed to mention that v1.4.8 no longer supports the void. If your arena uses the void (as opposed to using water) Quicksand will no longer interfere. To get the game back running on your server, simply replace the void with water.
Sorry for the inconvenience everyone! Happy running!
Everything works only thing not working is when you die. You just fall in the void forever and nobody wins! Fix please! :)
Running: Quicksand v1.4.8 for CB 1.6.4-R1.0 10 hours ago
Started a game with another player. They left MC and came back. I was still in-game. I decided to fall out into the void to die but kept falling and falling. I typed /qs leave and was spawned back in the starting area. I can't join a game as it's still in session but can't leave it and have to restart the server so people can join again.
@FireBreath15
Thats great news! I like this plugin very much but lag is very huge problem. Glad to see it is on your list. Thanks! :)
Alright everyone I wanted to announce that I am spending long hours on a new version of Quicksand! Right now my main focus is to FINALLY store data in hash maps. In other words, I am working to completely cut lag. I've also made some minor changes and I've fixed some HUGE bugs right now. I am in the beginning stages of testing it right now and i'll have a new version out when it passes the inspection :^)
I've recoded a lot of what we had before, so I want to be positive it all works the way I want it to. Anyways thanks everyone for being so patient and I can't want to get this thing uploaded for you!
would be better if you added multiple arenas
@Mineraftair
