FAQ
How do I add my server to the list?
Visit http://serverlist.ironraptor.com and fill out the form to add your server. You can visit it again to update or make changes as needed.
How long until my server is used in a response?
When you add your server you can tell server list to update server list. If it’s been more than an hour since the last update it’ll grab the new servers. If it hasn’t been a full hour you can either wait the remaining time and try again, or just wait until someone else issues the command later.
I don’t understand the server address that is being read back.
If you can’t understand Alexa’s pronunciation of the server address, check your alexa app on your phone to see what the response is and you’ll be able to read the address.
You can also visit https://alexa.amazon.com/spa/index.html#settings/dialogs to see what’s said by Alexa.
I keep getting the same server for a specific tag.
We will preload the list as much as we can but some tags may only have one or only a few servers. As more people submit servers this list will grow.
I tried connecting to a server but it is offline.
We keep track of servers that fail the query check and will remove as needed. If you’ve gotten the same offline server a few times across several days let us know and we’ll investigate.
My server name, address, or description is being pronounced wrong.
If you’ve followed all the suggestions on the Google form, shoot us an email (IronRaptorDigital@gmail.com) and we will run it through Alexa’s voice simulator and adjust it where necessary.
Why use this skill over just browsing a website server list?
The only real advantages are the complete randomness of the results and you’re not influenced by a flashy banner. Otherwise this is just another way to find other minecraft servers out there. Why not both?
