    Greetings, everyone! I hope you all are having a fantastic day. I want to thank everyone who came out to the Minecraft event on Xbox One as part of the AJSA Special Operation this past weekend.

All the games selected this week across our Events and Game Nights were hand-picked by Melon himself! We hope you enjoy the titles we're offering and hope everyone has a great time.
    Thank you Melon for your service, friendship, and dedication to the community. We will all miss you!

    Organizers from PC and Xbox One are teaming up on Minecraft! We’ve turned the Xbox community world into an online ‘Minecraft Realm’ where members from PC and console can come play during this Special Operation. Invites to the Realm will be distributed to participants during the events.
    Due to limitations to how many people can be in a Realm at one time, we are breaking up the Minecraft event into two phases to ensure both sides can get to play. Each Phase will be curated to a respective platform.
    The ‘Xbox - Phase One’ of the event will take place on Friday night July 27th and the ‘PC - Phase Two’ will take place on Saturday afternoon July 28th. PC and console members can attend both phases, but space will be limited. If the server is full, please be patient and you’ll get in to play!
    Once you are part of the Realm, you can come back and play whenever you feel like it! It is important to note that PC members must have the ‘Windows 10 Edition’ of Minecraft to play. Have an old version of Minecraft? Log into your Mojang account, find and click on ‘Claim Your Free Copy’ to upgrade.
    For voice communications, during the Xbox Phase we will be primarily using Xbox Live party chat to talk. For the PC Phase, we will be using the AJSA Discord channel voice and text channels. There is in-game text chat system built into Minecraft as well.

    How To Participate:
    For new members/first time event participants coming from Xbox, I highly encourage you to add to the host as your friend on Xbox Live (Gamertag listed above). All event parties are launched from the AJSA Xbox Club so if you’re a member of the Club, you can join without a direct party invite. Communication during events are done primarily in the Xbox Live Party system. In case of emergency, we will use the AJSA Discord Channel.
    If you would like to give advance notice to the host that you would like to play, you are free to do so. Otherwise keep note of the event start times and join the host's Xbox Live party to start playing. You will be invited to join the Realm upon entry to the party as well.
    For new members/first time event participants coming from PC while we are primarily going to use the Xbox Live party system to communicate, the hosts of the event will be on the AJSA Discord channel to assist anyone from PC who would like to come play during this phase. Your primary point of contact on Discord will be Rune [Rune#5424]. Message him to get started.
