Survival 3

Survival 3 is Ben's survival world, and is the most recent survival world. It does not have a "real" name, as none of the survival servers do.

Creation
Survival 3 was conceptualized on January 3rd, 2020, when Ben lamented the lack of a permanent survival world to Snivy. Ben had "always preferred survival to minigames," so he decided to remedy the problem by creating Survival 3.

Early days
Ben and Snivy were the first to join the world, quickly gathering resources. Progress was slow, but steady. The Nether was reached the day after the server was created, right after Phun joined the world for the first time. Notable structures built during this time are the Beach House and the Watchtower. Big Tree's construction started during this period as well.

The Grand Recession
Due to the group's lack of built-up resources like iron, quality of living dramatically decreased. In addition to this problem, the true extent of mob griefing was discovered, as Creepers blew up sections of several structures, such as the base of Big Tree and the edges of the Beach House and Watchtower. The world's only known monster spawner at the time, a cave spider spawner, was also unceremoniously blown up less than an hour after its discovery. The only structures built during this time were the Gamer Hole and the AFK-inator.

The Return to Form
After the group's stock of built-up materials was built back up and Birch Bay was protected from Creepers, living was good. Just after the beginning of the period, Snivy's Journal was completed with the destruction of the desert village that had taken Cactus. hostage. The first netherite was found during this time, and was used to upgrade Ben and Snivy's chestplates (and later the Idiot Incapacitator). Roughly a day after the netherite was gained, Snivy built the skeleton XP grinder, leading to several enchantments. After a period of unceremonious happenings, Ben acquired the music disc Wait in a caving accident. After the disc was safely contained in the Gamer Hole, Ben and Snivy went on their Grand Nether Adventure. Him was tamed and several bastions were looted, culminating in repairing a broken portal leading to a location in the ocean roughly 6k blocks away from spawn. Because of the XP gained during the trip, Ben was able to upgrade the Idiot Incapacitator to Sharpness V. This caused Ben to temporarily go insane from the power and die due to overdosing on pufferfish.
