I love the idea of weekly challenges. Maybe someone can make a stickied post each week and post a new challenge. The community can make the suggestions for the challenges and one can be picked each week. Luckily I can speak the language of 11 year old pottymouths, here are the actual rules for this challenge, pulled from the original post.
Seed name is 404 (don't think this challenge will work after the update)
The Rules!
1. You have until night fall to gather supplies. Spend your time wisely! Once night hits you MUST venture into the hole, never to return to the surface again!
2. You can gather any resource you find top side, but venturing into any other caves (for iron mostly) is not allowed. Sunlit caves are allowed.
3. You must not break ground on the 404 gravel until you are ready to enter the cave. You are intended to be finding shelter for the first night, digging the gravel, and discovering the cave. Once you break ground on the gravel, you must enter the cave.
4. Once you enter the cave, you must descend all the way to the bottom! The waterfall has swept you into the deepest parts of the cave.
5. No torches! If you whine about why you can't use torches, just STFU. Real men use lava for light anyway! (Redstone torches, jack-o-lanterns, and flint n' steel are OK!)
6. Survive and thrive. Don't simply build a wall around yourself. Explore. Build. Progress! Your 'score' will be based on what you accomplished, not simply how long you survived.
7. Only mine ores that are is visible. If you see an ore, you can mine it and the blocks around it to see if you got all of it. No branch/strip mining allowed. You are spelunking/surviving here, not at your 9 to 5 mining job.
8. Difficulty must be either Normal or Hard. If you play on hard you could get a 1.5x score multiplier.
9. 1 life. If you die the challenge is over. Start a new 404 world if you want to try again.
10. No inventory edits or 'cheating' of any kind. Using F3 to see mob locations is considered cheating as well.

(( and just an FYI, I'm 24, not 11, I just have a lot of 11year old cousins in my family lol))
Don't be rude the the guy. Most 11 year olds type like that first off and second off he might have bad grammar and spelling but we all had to start somewhere!
When I get back from camping, I'll take that challenge!
That's no excuse for ****y grammar.
I am only 12, and it is easy to have grammar.
Plus you can't spell almost every word in your sentences.
Please. I bet your 119 posts are on annoying threads like Her0BrIn iz relz!
You must have an F in reading. Or Language Arts.
Please.
Before you post, think how retarded it would look like with no grammar.

in fact im very good at ELA and I was rushing to get it done and most of my post are responses and herobrine is fake
Everyone starts somewhere. Damn guys, the kid is 11 and is typing on a IPod, cut the kid some slack. I for one would love to take this weekly challenge. I do advise one thing try to slow down on typing....
Slower typing= Better spelling

this is something i took into note thanks for the tip
why are people all about grammar and spelling on the minecraft forums? It's the internet does it f****** matter?!?!?
Well, I usually don't comment on it if it's just a reply. But, in an OP, you are basically publishing your idea to the community. Have some respect in that and treat it as if you were writing an essay that's going to be judged by hundreds of people. Because that's pretty much what it is. You want your post to be as easy to read as possible and to get the message across clearly. Plus, when most people start reading a post with bad grammar, they're not going to take it very seriously. To be completely honest, I only read the first few lines of the OP.
