Questions about this server

What is the IP address for Sams?

The address for Sams is sams.tj. In Minecraft Java Edition choose Multiplayer, then Add Server, and paste it into the Server Address box.

Is Sams online right now?

Yes. Sams replied to our ping with 2 players connected. We last reached it at 2026-10-24 16:05 UTC and we re-check every five minutes.

What Minecraft version does Sams run?

Sams reports version 1.26. Matching your client to that version is the usual fix when a server refuses the connection.

Can Java and Bedrock players both join Sams?

No. Sams only answered on Java when we tested it, so Bedrock players cannot use this address. We repeat the test daily and will update this page if that changes.

How many players are on Sams?

2 at our last ping. The seven-day average is 1 and the highest we have recorded in that window is 5. The chart further up this page shows how that number moves through the day.

When is the best time to play on Sams?

Around 03:00 UTC, when we typically count about 2 players. That is the busiest hour we have measured on Sams over the last seven days.

Where is Sams hosted?

The address for Sams resolves to a machine in United States. Players far from there should expect a longer round trip, which usually shows up as delayed block breaking rather than as a disconnect.

Is Sams free to join?

Yes, joining Sams costs nothing beyond owning Minecraft. Some servers additionally allow offline-mode accounts and some do not — the server decides that, and we do not resell anything.
