Start the game, and you need to accomplish this in a Minecraft Month or less.
Defeat the Ender Dragon in full diamond armor, and having full diamond tools.
A house with a nether portal in it's own large room, and it has to have functioning:
Storage
Bedroom
Kitchen
Living Room
Redstone working hidden door in your bookshelf area
Basement
Farm of every seed that the game has including cocoa beans
Functioning mob farm
And that's it.
So, go ahead and try it, you can adjust the time to your liking.
I don't get it.. Are you telling me to just play Minecraft? Because this is a pretty standard list of things. Except the hidden door.. Who needs that in single player? the kitchen and living room are kinda useless except for flavor.
Then again, everyone plays differently and maybe these are things you consider hard? Which is totally cool, but play for a while and you'll realize that most of this stuff can be done in a week.. or less.
The list needs a little more maybe?:) Maybe do it in the sky? Using only one source block of water. (Zisteau did the one source block thing) There's much more, but I'm tired. lol
That's...very easy...I have probably done this without trying already....
I think this is all about the time factor (one Minecraft month which I calculate to be about 11 total hours of actual game-play time IRL). If this is too easy, then the OP indicates that you can adjust (i.e. shorten) the time frame for accomplishing the listed tasks. It's pretty open-ended... make it as tough or easy as you like.
OP - Perhaps add some tougher/longer term projects to the list. Perhaps also specify using certain amounts of the materials in the game that are harder to come by. I would also forbid the use of X-raying, save without exiting (re enchanting) and even, perhaps, forbid enchanting altogether (so things like diamonds have to be obtained without the use of fortune and enderpearls have to be obtained without looting). I would also perhaps specify that the player must use a completely new, randomly generated seed without scoping it out in creative first and forbid the use of mineshaft finders and/or slime finders and other online aps. (The effect of all of this is to take away the common crutches players use to speed up the normal gameplay.)

I don't know... the timeframe could make it pretty challenging... keeping in mind that your standard 'month' is typically measured to be just slightly over the time it takes for a full moon cycle (in game).

You're right. I hadn't thought of it that way. The lunar cycle in game is only 8 game days long - 2 hours and 40 minutes IRL time (per the Wiki). That would, I think, make it challenging - especially without the use of any xraying or aps to locate resources. Heck, the collection of sufficient enderpearls alone just to complete the portal might almost take that long... let alone the ones you might "waste" in order to find it.

So... a standard 30-Day Month (11:00:00 / hh:mm:ss):
Or a Lunar Month (2:40:00 / h:mm:ss):
I know the two don't precisely jive with each other. The first one I was doing off the top of my head using 22 minutes for a day/night cycle. Per the Wiki article on the lunar cycle, the day/night cycle must total just 20 minutes and an average 30-day month would be 10 hours flat. The main point is stil the same, this can be really easy or really hard or even impossible even just depending on the time limit you want to set for yourself. Even at the longer time, if you throw away the other crutches people use (like xraying or consulting finders to locate mineshafts and the stronghold/end portal) and then go through without ever exiting without saving or without enchanting entirely and, yeah, I think it would be enough of a challenge for me. (I'm don't tend to do a lot of sprinting for one thing which slows me down (since the double push forward on the stick tends to aggravate the arthritis in my hands).
