But the point is to see what other people have done? Once you've explored it it's just another minecraft world.

It's tempting to see if HN can recreate the experience. There are minecraft players here. Someone could set up some version control or somesuch for a minecraft world download.



There's public minecraft servers. People share maps. That's nothing new and I think it's beside the original intent.

The theme of the challenge was "religion" and Chain World was designed to have the characteristics of one: laws, tradition, secrecy, solitude, ancestor worship, etc. Most of that flies out the window when it's just a bunch of people browsing maps other people have created.

Of course, none of the original intent was really fulfilled because there was no adherence to the "laws."
