Random Effects Every Minute
by FilXD
Random Effects Every Minute gives every online player a random status effect once each minute, so a session of ordinary play turns unpredictable.
What it does
A timer runs in the background, and when it reaches 60 seconds the mod picks one status effect at random from a pool of vanilla Minecraft effects. The chosen effect is applied to every player currently online, and the cycle then starts over and repeats for as long as the server or world is running. Effects range from strong buffs to harmful debuffs, so one minute can help a player and the next can hinder them.
The mod is built around chaotic play, and it suits casual multiplayer servers, minigame groups and single-player runs where players want their plans disrupted. It runs on the client and the server together, so both sides need the mod installed. It depends on UI Timer Lib, which must sit in the mods folder beside it, and it is published for Fabric only, across six release versions, under the MIT License. The code is not open source.

Timed random effects
A new status effect is chosen every 60 seconds, and the cycle repeats indefinitely without manual input.
Applied to all online players
The selected effect is given to every player currently online at the moment the timer fires.
Mix of buffs and debuffs
The pool contains beneficial and harmful vanilla effects, so the outcome of each minute varies widely.
Relies on UI Timer Lib
The countdown is handled through UI Timer Lib, which must be installed in the mods folder for the mod to work.
