Wurstmineberg Ultra Softcore (often abbreviated as USC) is a type of Minecraft minigame based on Mindcrack Ultra Hardcore. The rules vary from match to match (like on Mindcrack UHC), but the primary difference is that we give players another chance when they die from environmental damage (hostile mobs, fall damage, fire/lava). We mainly do that because we're exceedingly happy to even manage to get 4 people scheduled for a match, and having that match end after 30 minutes because someone derped up would kind of defeat the point of having a fun game.
Wurstmineberg's USC games take place on usc.wurstmineberg.de
, and the main world is shut down during the event to reduce server load.
These rules are automatically enforced but might still be nice to know:
