Challenges
minecraft
Some of the challenges below involve sending in screenshots of the game. Screenshots are taken by pressing F2. They can then be found in %appdata%\.minecraft\screenshots on a windows PC. If you can't work this out then a mobile phone picture of your screen will be good enough, which you can then email to us. Email your screenshots or photos to me at the contact email your leader gave you in order to get your points. Make sure you include your full name and scout group ID in your email.
Top Tip: You can view a map of the server and where you are at https://minecraft.scoutlink.net
