I put 300 Minecraft players in a single world and gave them a standardized currency to simulate economic civilization. Every player had the freedom to do whatever they wanted, but if they died they would be dead forever. This experiment was run to test how money would influence Minecraft civilization would they use it to build world trade, or would they fight with each other for control of it?

How it worked:
300 players were selected out of a pool of applicants to participate in the experiment. The server was available for two hours every day for a week, and the server was only accessible during those hours. If the players died, they were permanently banned from the server. This video is a representation of the events of the experiment, and almost everything in this video is from live recordings.
