Note: Removing the block that you spawned on, and not placing a block back (So if there is no block on your spawn point) then dieing may spawn you elsewhere as it is too small to pick a spawn close by. So it will spawn you on the mainland, and it will be impossible to get back. Be careful! (This problem is fixed for the versions that are above this spoiler.)

"How do I keep my water from re-freezing?"
This is a very simple fix. To stop your water from re-freezing, as this is in a Tundra (snow) biome, simply place a block above your water source, or a torch next to the source. There are alternative downloads for the level.dat file, but this will eliminate a challenge and therefore you can't complete them all.

"How do I light a Nether portal without Flint & Steel?"
This is very simple to do, but it may take a few tries. The basic idea is to get your lava to light a piece of wood or something else flammable, and have the fire spread through the portal frame so it ignites, therefore activating it.
Step-by-step guide by iiTzWho
Step-by-step guide by iiTzWho
How to light the portal without Flint & Steel
It is actually really easy, if the wood burns out before it lights, try again
The rest will be in spoilers, each step in a separate spoiler
First Step
First, set up the portal (I wasn't in SkyBlock for this, therefor had 14 obsidian not 10)
Second
Set up the wood, and a little barrier so the lava doesn't go everywhere
Third
Place the lava down, let it catch fire to one of the planks, then grab it back up
Fourth
Both planks should be burning..
Fifth
The portal should be lit, if not - try again
Hope this helped somehow, good-luck with SkyBlock
TL;DR - Set up portal, put wood at base and back of portal, light wood at base, let it spread to back, BAM portal lit.
[/media]
"How do I get gold ingots?"
Go to the Nether (with guide above) and make a platform there for zombie pigmen to spawn on. Kill them for gold nuggets. Once you have 9 gold nuggets, place them in a crafting table in a 3x3 fashion, which creates one gold ingot.

Not a bad idea, it should remain as a creative mode item only. It would definitely help with mapmaking. Support.

Terraria and Call of Duty aren't Minecraft. Just because another game has something does not mean this one 'NEEDS' it, does Minecraft need attack helicopters because battlefield has them?. Bows are absolutely different than guns, by that logic we need racecars because they're similar to minecarts. Also you didn't respond to SuperSonicMiner's comments and merely insulted their 'spelling' (I didn't see any spelling errors, at least no notable ones). Guns are constantly suggested but they will never be added to keep with the child friendly rating and the general theme.
Just a formality at this point, No Support.

I'm not entirely sure how you would monetize your server off of ads... most of the servers I've played on (and one that I managed) ran solely on donations. You're almost surely not going to make a profit running a minecraft server but if you have a great idea and execution then you very well can. Just a few questions:
Why are you limited to 20 users?
How involved will you be? Do you want to just act as the host and let your staff run it or do you want to be involved with the community and the daily running?
Do you want a general theme? Such as cities/villages/medieval/pirates/other?
I ran a factions/towny server a few years ago called Aerocraft (briefly called Onyxcraft) and it was a great experience, for a while we had 30+ people online and a few large donors allowed us to make a profit. I'm not sure that the plugins we used are still active (peaked around 1.7.3 then died off as our staff had other commitments). I'd certainly be able to help with the day to day running, but my plugin knowledge is a bit outdated.
Good luck, if you need any advice or help with operations let me know.

I'm having a hard time following the specifics of what you're saying, but the overall concept of friends and 'squads' would definitely improve the game. Support.

Why not both?

Sounds like a really cool idea, I actually tried setting up a similar server a couple of years back but I found that it's a very niche interest - it'll be hard to find people for it.

I forget snow isn't common for a lot of places - I'm in Buffalo so we're just used to a foot of snow at any given time. We're basically Canada.

According to wikipedia, it's the second highest selling game of all time, just behind Tetris (1984) and just ahead of Wii sports (2006). Tetris is still available on your phone and computer and is held as a classic, I don't see it dying even after 30+ years. Wii sports died fairly quickly but remember that it was only available for the Nintendo Wii and was the original 'active' video game. The console itself was limited so people lost interest eventually. Now look at Minecraft, it's available on your PC, phone, Xbox, PS, and probably a few others that I forgot about. More available than Tetris was when it came out, and a visual style that doesn't really age, so I think people will still be playing it 20 years from now.

It could be attempting to factor in waste from cutting stairs, maybe Steve's lack of a tile saw causes him to break a bunch of pieces.
