The challenge
The Zero Chunk Challenge, the March 2015 Minecraft Hardcore Challenge, squeezed a team of players into one small space. Everyone lives in the zero chunk, the area between -16 and 16 on the X and Z axes, and blocks can only be placed inside it. Basket joins three other players for this one.
Host Michael Deering's standard rules applied: no exploring the world in another copy, no AFK crop growth, no sleeping in beds to skip the night, everything on camera at normal speed, and a grave for any fallen teammate, in hardcore mode on Minecraft 1.8.1. The episodes went up between March 2 and March 20, 2015: Episodes 1 to 4, then a combined Episode 5 & 6. A short first attempt is listed below.
