A struggle:

I think I started off on the server by going off exploring on my own, and so whatever I created and mined was way off from where the rest of the class was, and so when they started collaborating I really wanted to work together but I couldn't find where they were. I would have really liked to play together with the rest of the class mostly because I only played for about an hour at a time and wanted to get the most out of it, and couldn't do that with the resources I had. Creative mode was better for me in that regard, but took away from the social aspect of it.

An accomplishment:

I tried to refer to the wiki as little as possible and really just explore on my own. When it came to the actual crafting I did need to see instructions but I liked the aspect of being able to go off and break or kill things and collecting different materials and thinking of the possibilities I had with those.

An observation:

I saw a lot of the access problems in terms of access to supplies, since resources are limited on the server. The lone warrior approach vs collaboration was a dilemma for me, because I had wandered off way out and had built a small isolated house and got a lot of chicken and sheep, but I now wanted to mine further for other minerals like gold and diamond which might have been easier if I were in a team.
