Fishing Contest 1.0.9

December 27, 2025

This is just one possible idea, but would it be feasible to introduce a “weight” attribute for fish?

Specifically, each fish caught at random would be assigned and displayed with a weight value, and the rankings would be determined based on the weight of the target fish rather than simply the number caught.

On many servers that currently use this plugin, we have observed cases of abuse, where players are able to coordinate with each other and intentionally secure first place together. To prevent this, allowing the fish weight to be set as a randomized value would make it much more difficult for multiple players to tie for first place, even if they catch the same number of fish.

We kindly ask you to consider adding this kind of system-based restriction, in addition to rule-based enforcement, so that the competitive integrity of the event is not compromised.

Yeah that's a good idea. I will look into it.
