Minecraft Hot Potato
What is Hot Potato?
Hot potato is a plugin in a league of its own. Players love the high paced action and thrills that this awesome mini-game provides, making it the perfect game for any server!
How do you play?
All players join a arena with speed potion effect. One Player randomly spawns with a potato in there inventory. They have 10 seconds (Configurable) to give up the potato by right clicking a player. The player who has the potato will have a TNT block on his head, and will also be shooting fireworks. If he hits another player, that player becomes the potato. Whoever has the potato at the end of the timer blows up and is sent to the spectator box. When one player is left, they will get 10 (Configurable) credits which he can use to spawn in perks before a game.

1.12 Is out and has all the option you have asked for in the comments. I have uploaded the new config to the configuration page in the nav bar. I have not added comments yet since its 12Pm and I have school tomorrow at 6 XD.
@WordyNutria
Its coming on the way. Love that you love it!
Hey man ! Your plugin is ... AWESOME ! I love it so much ! Everything is perfect ! But can I just ask you to put multiple arenas ? Or is it allready there and I am too dumb to know it ? =P Thanks
@tempszz
I could try some of those request but some of them would take too much code that is not needed. I could do the disabling messages and stuff like that but the message thing would take a while. I will put it in for a big update.
@jonhykrazy
What do you mean by more fireworks? Increase the speed of them when the timer goes down? Also Herobrine the game is just started and I will finish it by 2 weeks tops. I will only be in Alpha then.
could you instantiate more fireworks as the timer goes lower? it doesn't seem that hard, I don't know java, but from my programming knowledge, if I assume you have a timer varialbe to isntantiate the fireworks, it actually seems like a pretty easy thing to do, btw is The Herobrine out? I'm curious about the plugin
@Avery246813579
Can you also add an option to change the book you get given, also still getting "internal error occurred" when I type /hp join but everything else works well, I still join but it says error occurred.
@Avery246813579
Can you add a option to disable the book and the emerald when you have the potato and a config to edit all the messages? And a option to disable when you die you get put into the air :)
@jonhykrazy
Yup it is out now. I will create that option the next update since I have already finish 1.11.
@Avery246813579
is the enchant remove also coming on 1.11? Can you add another game mode? instead of everytime you pass the potato the timer resets, can you make an option to be always counting down?
@WhosHenry
Fixed. Coming out in next upload of the plugin. Beta 1.11
@Avery246813579
Found a problem with the hotpotato.starttime permission node, it doesn't work, people still don't have the access to do /hp starttime.
@absintoj
That would be Wunderbar.
@vladvld1
same for me, after starting the server run a /reload command, then it should start working, that's what I do in my server
My HotPotato doesnt work, im serious, doesnt even load
@megasnipez_
As you can see from my comments, there is: http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/hot-potato/pages/signs/ but they aren't working correclty (look at my last comment), so I'm using serversigns to do this
is there anyway to join via signs?
@Avery246813579
I tried to delete items from the inveontory, I think I had a glass, and a bucket of milk, anyway that was probably my server. Oh, when I first downloaded the plugin, (1.01) the bomb timer keep going until it exploded, now everytime I pass the potato, the timer resets, can you add an option to choose between in the config? after you're done with The Herobrine
edit: btw what's the difference between multiple maps and multiple arenas? (in the poll) edit2: yeah today the server is working just fine edit3: and it started not clearing up the items again :/ I'll see if it shows some error in the console or something edit4 (damn so many edits): Ok, when I click the sign to join, items aren't cleared, if I hit the sign to leave, items aren't cleared, anyway using commands seems to work, I'll use ServerSigns for now instead of your signs
Guys I am currently going on a brake from major updates of Hot Potato. Do not worry it's only for a short time. I will still be coding in this time. Just a different plugin called The Herobrine. You might have heard about it. I will also be adding multiple arenas in the plugin while I'm gone. I will also do bug fixes so it will not be like I am gone.
I will be gone for less then a week. I just want to release my first Alpha Version of The Herobrine ASAP.
@WhosHenry
You have not set any points that means. Its a common error that I am having trouble fixing.
When I stop and start the server the plugin doesn't load, I have to do /plugin reload HotPotato using a Reload plugin I have downloaded.
Also when I type /hp join an internal error occurs but I can still join and it all works fine. I'm looking forward to the Perk shop and multiple maps.
