    Yes, our team of developers are currently working on getting the server updated to 1.9. As of now, this update is 100% complete, we are only waiting for two important developers to spare the free time to monitor the update's rollout. We do not have a set date for the update. Other developers are also working on updates and bug fixes after 1.9 is released

    Is this 1.9 Update for the Whole server or specific Games, along with this are Games Such as WiR, MineZ2 going to be completed and Updates to Anni's unbalanced classes going to be fixed and put this game back to its Golden Age? Or is this update just changing the server to 1.9 and that's it?

    The entire of Shotbow will move to a 1.9 instance with most gamemodes making the transition to 1.9.

    For Annihilation there is a small update upon release of 1.9 (you can see it now on the beta instance!) with another update when 1.9 is confirmed stable and free of game breaking bugs/issues.

    We couldn't. 1.7 isn't good version at developing server.

    We have reverted PvP to replicate 1.8 style PvP.

    Other mini admins such as yourself have commented that you aren't given periodic information regarding the progress of the update, and even some full admins remark that they have not been made aware of progress either. How do you account for this discrepancy?

    But my friend other mini admin said such same things. He said "1.9 is full done and we're just waiting for Highlife and Adam decide the release day."

    Of course there are developers developing this server. Their the ones who try to get new things for the server. To be honest Shotbow's team of developers are a group of hard workers.

    It depends on whether or not a mini-admin or a full-admin decides to check up on all of the tid-bits of information available on Slack. I happen to check in on the progress of many things so I know what's happening across all of the different teams and projects across the network, this isn't mandatory for all mini-admins or full-admins

    Some development is paused, most of it is still going on behind the scenes :wink:
    For example the Annihilation classes update (part 1) which is getting closer to completion.
    Also keep in mind that a lot of development is not even noticeable by players and therefore unannounced. For example changes to Anticheat, Admin tools or the Shotbow infrastructure. These changes do often occur.

    So is it true that 1.9 is full done(coded) and we're just waiting for Highlife and Adam?

    I can confirm that 1.9 is fully done.
    We now have to wait for a weekend where at least 2 core system developers are available during the entire weekend to roll and fix potential issues.

    Will the 1.9 server be playable in 1.8.9?

    Sadly me and my friends will greatly decrease in our playtime if we can't play in 1.8.9. Whats the reason behind this? Is it just a programming issue? As other servers are in 1.10 and we can play in 1.8.9.
