Saki

Saki was a sport played by players of the Mappercraft Minecraft Server during Solace World 2. The name derives itself from a blend of 'soccer' and 'hockey', aptly describing what the game is at its core. It was conceived in Chicago, where the world's first saki field was constructed. After the sport became popularized on the server, saki fields were built in other cities around the world, though these got less traction than the one in Chicago. Rules, teams, and the games themselves were handled by the players for the most part, with staff spawning in the game's iconic turtle balls, knockback sticks, and snowballs.
==Description==
:This section of the article is incomplete; one may help by expanding it.
Each team in saki had three players each, with one being the goalkeeper and the other two being offense players. Each game lasts for an indeterminate multiple rounds. When a round ends and another one begins, the teams swap positions and the ball is positioned away from the winning team. Every time a team scores, they receive one point. When one of the teams has the greater amount of points by a certain time limit, they are declared the winner of the game.
The 'ball' in saki is an invincible turtle with no AI, which is maneuvered by the offense players through knockback sticks. The goalkeeper is the one who defends the goal from the other team scoring, either by deliberate activation of doors and trapdoors to halt the ball from going in, or by throwing snowballs at the turtle to slow its momentum or to push it back slightly.
==Rules==

There existed a list of generally accepted rules for saki, which could not be violated in legitimate play. If they were to be broken during a round, the round would have to start over. These rules included:
#Players must not knock the turtle out of the field by any means necessary.
#Players must not use any other items other than their Knockback X sticks or snowballs.
#All players must take off their armor before starting the game.
