There are many challenges in the forums.
But none of them are SHINY or IRONIC (no pun intended) AS THIS ONE.
Background:
The stone age has finished. The copper age has finished. Humans have found that there is one mineral that is stronger than them.
Iron
(People don't know about diamonds.)
Iron was the hardest mineral that humans have found and it was increadibaly useful. You could make powerful tools and armour, buckets, cauldrons, and minecarts. It was amazing. The chief of your tribe has sent you to find more of this precious metal so he can make an Epic Iron Bathtub. The town blacksmith has requested you to also get him materials to experiment with the metal which could make him famous.
Part 1: Locate
The chief has sent you faaaaaar into the lands. Your task is to find a suitable location to make a stonish base.
Requirements for next part:
Leather chestplate
Cobblestone hut with wooden walls (you can only get cobblestone from exposed deposits above ground.)
Storage hut
fireplace in the middle of camp (Bonus if you have fire in the fireplace and burn logs.)
NO COAL (Charcoal :3)
Fence around base.
Part 2: Prepare
You have camp set out. Now you must get ready to start mining the iron.
Requirements for next part:
One REGULAR chest filled with stone pickaxes.
Mine BUILDING (don't actually start mining in there.)
You can now use COAL TORCHES!!! Celebrate by writing "Coal" with your new coal torches (yes this is a requirement).
Build a Blacksmith with atleast 9 furnaces.
Leather helmet (you don't want to bump your head in the mine later do you?)
Upgrade fences into 1-block-tall-cobblestone-walls-with-fences-on-top-with-torches-on-them.
Part 3: Excavation
You now have set up your camp and ready for mining. Get ready to MINE!!!
Requirements for next part:
Dig your mine. It should be 5x5, which makes it look EPIC. Add wood supports on ceiling every 5 blocks.
Find Iron. LOADS of it. Like 4 stacks of it.
Start a quarry. It should be a seperate building altogether. (Nice try thinking your mine is a quarry.)
YOU MAY ONLY DIG ON LAYER 50 OR ABOVE (To check your layer, press f3 and look for the part that says:
x =
y =
z =
The y should be 50. something)
Fill 2 large chests in your storage building with cobblestone.
USE UP ALL OF YOUR STONE PICKAXES. No need to craft more, your just adding a larger load for yourself if you do.
Make a blacksmith devoted for refining iron ore into iron ingots.
Fill a chest with 4 stacks of iron (INGOTS)
Make 2 sets of iron tools (does not count as part of the 4 stacks)
Make a full suit of iron armour.
Make an armoury! It should have an iron door, operated with a button. Inside, you should have a chest with your spare tools (iron, of course), a chest with some extra iron swords, a chest with your spare armours. (NONE OF THIS IS COUNTED WITH THE 4 STACKS.)
Good luck!
Part 4: The Ocean
You have got a LOT of iron now. You need to start shipping it back to your village.
Requirements for next part:
Build a harbour. If you are near an ocean, lucky you. If not, you have to build a pathway (coblestone looks good for paths.) to the nearest ocean and build a small harbour. The main building there should be made of wooden planks. There should be docks with boats and you can maybe build some "ships" out of wooden planks and stuff. Once you have a harbour, you need to make enough boats to last a lifetime. Get on one of the boats and sail away. Remember where your harbour was. Sail across the sea to a large island or a continent where, if you are lucky, you can find a village. If you don't find one, build a pretend village where you land. Go to the blacksmith, and fill it up with iron. Do not be tempted by its loot. Build a dock at the village and then sail back. You should aslo bring the magical metal bathtub (a cauldron) and put it in the biggest house you see (or pretend one of them is the cheif's house,) and fill it with water. Yay! You finished your main mission.

A question about the fence, my camp is near the sea so i put part of the fence in the water (on a dirt base) and left a 2 blocks gap in the middle to make some sort of harbour, does the fence need to sorround the ENTIRE camp, or can i leave that gap, also, i put 2 gates, one to get to the stone deposit, and the other to get to the hills behind my camp, can i keep them?

You may keep it. It may be useful in the future...

You may mine it but you must not use it until part 3.
Yeah. Walls have to be made out of wooden planks or just wood.
<---- little help pls
