[cldash]

Hello folks!​

So, as only some of you know, I am trying to gather informations of some SkyWars maps that were no longer published online for everyone to play on, but only VIA Private Game obtion, for a YouTube Documentary video. I've gathered some informations, but I still need more, so I need your help to pass me as many imformations as you can, for each map I've mentioned bellow.

I have added a bit of info at some stuff, but if you think they are wrong or if there are more infos to be added, then please feel free to correct me and/or to message with a reply!

Factory
This map was first added on Java as a Lucky Island game, on 2016. Then later, on 2019 the map was added to Bedrock as a Winter event SkyWars solo map.
On Java, the map was removed right in the day when it got on Bedrock
This map was removed in 2020
This map was removed from Java because CubeCraft did not wanted the same maps to be in both Server Editions, active

Mines

When was it removed?
Reason - too much void betwen the islands, and the map did not had a very plat surface to fight on

Why did it got removed?

The SkyWars solo map Valentines was an even map that was meant for the Valentine days only.
This map appeared on Java servers on February 2018, then later it was removed and moved to Bedrock 1 year later, on February 2019. Map also returned in 2021 and 2022, but simce then, the map never appeared back again.
Reason - This kind of event and all of the maps related to Valentines got replaced with the Lunar New Year event. But the Valentines Event MAY come back in one day.

I can help answer some of the questions (Bedrock only):

Factory (Solo) - Not brought back since 2020 because this map is originally a Team Lucky Islands map. They modified it to work with Solo SkyWars. When Team Lucky Islands released on Bedrock, they were able to release it for the original game and they don't want the same map to be on both games.

Valentines (Solo) - Originally a Java exclusive map until February 2019, as Bedrock edition was released in April 2018. This map was playable for 1-2 weeks when it was added in February from 2019-2021. Not brought back since Lunar Event was introduced in 2022. That event completely replaced Valentines mini event, even though in my opinion, both can co-exist with each other (Example: CubeCraft Birthday event on Bedrock happens during Spring event, which is in April). This map was overlooked in 2024, they brought the revamped Love map for EggWars Duos but never brought back this map.

Heart (Duos) - Added in 5 weeks of Summer 2022 (Week 4). It was removed in October 2022, but according to someone, it was removed because the map doesn't meet CubeCraft's criteria for a map.

Can't answer for other maps as they never appeared on rotation, not even once (I played since day 1 on Bedrock)

So, the Valentines map was first added on Java, in 2019? And was active on Bedrock for only 1-2 weeks in April 2018-?

And at Hearts, what do you mean by ,,criteria"?

Valentine's map was added to Java in February 2018 and Bedrock in February 2019. The map returned in 2020 and 2021, but since 2022, it never returned.

As for Heart, CubeCraft has a criteria they follow when making maps. At the time of creating the map, it followed it but sometime after it released, the criteria has changed and as a result, the map is gone. Unfortunately, I have no idea what is the criteria for map creation, but I was going off memory. Also, the map was removed in October 2022, 3 months after it was added.

Here is the reason why Heart was gone (Story used to be admin on the server)
