HaftaCraft - Sometimes, you just Hafta Craft!

Yet again, lost my changes, but I think the main server is OK, not totally sure on that, need to check on that. But the bigger set back right now is it completely ate the 1.12 server. Fortunately, I have the next 4 days off from work, so I'm going to work on that. Not sure how far this has set me back, but I'd like to have the server ready for people to play in September.

UPDATE 5 (2017-08-10): Had another power outage at the datacenter that wiped out backups of the main...

It was 4 years ago today (February 26th, 2012) that we registered our domain name and officially became HaftaCraft!

We've been through ups and downs, changes in servers, maps, staffing, even a temporary closure, but here we are in 2016, alive again.

Thanks to all players/staff past and present for making great HaftaCraft memories!
