Exploration race

A race held in the resource world that was reset that Sunday. Players are ranked by how quickly they collect the target item, and the top three receive Spa Coins.

When the race is held

A race starts right after a resource world is reset at 04:00 (Japan time) every Sunday.

One of Resource Server 2, Resource Nether 2, and the Resource End is reset each week, and that world becomes the race world. See Worlds and travel for the reset order.

The race ends at around 03:00 the next Sunday, about one hour before the next reset. It also ends as soon as third place is decided.

Target items

Each time a race starts, one target is chosen from a fixed list for the race world.

Race world	Possible targets
Resource Server 2	5 diamonds, 1 trident, 10 emeralds
Resource Nether 2	4 netherite scrap, 1 wither skeleton skull
Resource End	1 elytra, 4 shulker shells

When the race starts, the target and the deadline appear in chat and in the middle of the screen. Players who join later see them when they log in.

Items that count

Only items you obtained yourself in the race world after the race started count.

Target items you obtain get an invisible mark. Only target items with this mark are counted for the ranking.

Only the target item and materials that turn into it in a furnace (such as ores mined with Silk Touch) get a mark. Other items, such as cobblestone or meat, never get one. You can stack, smelt and sell them like ordinary items.

When the race ends, the marks on items are removed automatically. Items without marks stack with ordinary items again.

Ways of obtaining items that count

Items obtained in the following ways count.

• Items dropped by mining blocks
• Items dropped by defeating mobs (creatures in the game)
• Items already inside chests and other containers
• Fishing
• Bartering with piglins
• The contents of item frames that were already placed in the world

Target items you get by smelting marked ores in a furnace also count, but only when the ores are marked as your own.

Items that do not count

The following items do not count.

• Items brought in from the Building Server or your storage
• Items obtained before the race started
• Items received from other players
• Items thrown away by other players
• Items from mining blocks you placed yourself
• The contents that drop when you break a chest you placed yourself

Items received from or thrown away by other players do not count because the mark records the first player who obtained the item, and it only counts for that player.

Rankings and rewards

Your rank is decided the moment your inventory holds the required number of target items. You do not need to hand anything in, and the items are not taken away.

Only your inventory, including your off hand, is counted. Your ender chest is not counted. You are also only ranked while playing in Survival mode.

When your rank is decided, your name is announced to everyone in chat and your Spa Coin reward arrives immediately.

Rank	Reward
1st	1,000 Spa Coins
2nd	500 Spa Coins
3rd	300 Spa Coins
