	Occasionally we may need to enable a temporary whitelist to ensure games are able to run smoothly. We try to minimise these periods and will always aim to disable the whitelist as soon as possible. If you try to join and the server says it's whitelisted, we're sorry for the inconvenience and would ask you to try again another day. The whitelist is based on a regularly-updated list of active players; please note that we can't manually whitelist players, so please don't pester staff with requests.

	=== Why is my hero toggle locked? ===		=== Why is my hero toggle locked? ===

	Admins may sometimes lock players' hero ~~toggle~~, preventing them from being selected as a hero, as punishment for certain bad behavior. The most common reason for this is being rude about other players who have been selected as hero - if you can't be respectful towards other players when it's their turn to be hero, you don't get a turn. Other punishments may apply alongside this depending on the situation.		Admins may sometimes lock players' hero toggles, preventing them from being selected as a hero, as punishment for certain bad behavior. The most common reason for this is being rude about other players who have been selected as hero - if you can't be respectful towards other players when it's their turn to be hero, you don't get a turn. Other punishments may apply alongside this depending on the situation.

	If you have been hero locked, this will be shown in the DvZ options menu when trying to toggle hero opt-in. If the hero toggle option doesn't say it's locked, your hero is not locked. Remember that heroes are selected using random number generation each game, and this means that sometimes you will naturally go several games without being selected - this is ''not'' being hero locked.

Cake is a fun item that is a holdover from back when dwarves needed to eat so they didn't starve and could sprint. Because eating is no longer required, cakes are no longer important to gameplay, although you can use them to restore a very small amount of health. [[SuperHorse]] loves cake, and gets a resistance buff when eating it.

	~~=== Why do my arrows fly in random directions? ===~~

	Due to a Minecraft bug, sometimes an individual in game will have their arrows randomly fire in different directions than where they are aiming. Leaving the game and rejoining will fix this bug. Dwarves have unlimited relogs before plague and can relog once after plague, but should not relog to fix this during the plague as this will instantly kill them upon logging back in.
