I started this! And I have a question. I spawned a new world and ended up in the middle of a snow biome. Are snow blocks allowed to be used for construction?
I like this challenge. I'd really love to see this on a server...except obviously you couldn't have each person protecting THE spawn point, but the idea could be similar. I'm attempting the challenge currently, though I may skip some of the elements of it. Especially requiring a bed. Unfortunately I see things ending badly for me, as my laptop apparently doesn't like playing sound with Minecraft.
My spawn is near a small body of water in a forested area. Nearby is a cavern entrance, with lava flowing internally. I already have spotted iron ore in the entrance. So far I've only seen chickens in the immediate area, but that will work for a food source when I can get them into a pen.

Good luck completing the challenge on multiplayer. :3
Although there's really no reason for you guys not to have beds-- all you need is three planks and three wool blocks.

You can use snow for anything where the building material isn't specified.
Oh I'm not doing it on multiplayer...I meant it would be fun to have individuals doing it on a server, each building on a plot doing the same challenge. Then you could see how someone else is progressing and what they're building, etc, just by going over and looking.
Using only wooden tools is killing me. I usually don't go much past stone tools, but the only wooden tool I ever make is that first pickaxe. I've restarted several times, but I keep getting put very close to water. It's hard to build a keep, and still have room to plan out an inner and outer wall.

Oops. Sorry. Forgot to update that requirement when I was changing the tool requirements. Hang on, I'll fix it.

There's no such thing as too many screenshots. :biggrin.gif: Let us see what you've come up with!

Looking good so far! I'm excited to see how you incorporate mo creatures into the challenge... *hinthint*
EDIT: You do realize you're supposed to build your castle around your spawn point, right?
When you spawn on a tree, your spawn point isn't actually the leaves-- it's the block of ground directly beneath the leaves. Defend that. :smile.gif:

Sure, as long as you know where your spawn point is.
Challenging, isn't it? hehehehehe
ya i made it night spawned a bed and slept in it :tongue.gif: my spawn point is actually in the castle :smile.gif:
Go to a website like tinypic, upload your images, then copy and past the code it gives you. It should look something like this:
