Seasonal: A quest for Funky Dance Moves!

Take it away, Twixxi!

The (lesser known) Explorer's Guild invites you to take part in a special treasure hunt this month!

A new, naturally generated 1.19 world is now available on the Seasonal server. The fifteen different Music Discs have been removed from where you'd usually find them and scattered across the Overworld, Nether and End. You'll need to decipher the clues provided and then go look for them. They might be found in certain structures, be held by certain mobs, or even require you to complete a certain action!

What you need to know!

Head to Central's TransHub, right next to the train station and TARDIS in Central, to access the Seasonal server.

When you first log into the Seasonal server you will be given a Guidebook containing all of the clues. You can always get another copy either from spawn or by using the command /trigger guide. You can also view the clues in the Advancements menu.

You will earn one point for each different disc that you pick up, with a maximum of 15 points for finding all the discs. If you find the same disc more than once, you'll only get a point the first time.

Whenever you pick up a music disc it will immediately vanish. This means you won't be able to collect a disc for another player.

Players may cooperate on the survival aspects of the challenge (sharing resources, fighting together, etc), however if you choose to explore structures together, remember that you may not find enough discs for both of you!

Subtle clues are okay, but giving people outright solutions to the locations of music discs is strongly discouraged.

A Dynmap of the Seasonal server is available here. You might find this useful when trying to find certain biomes. Remember however that loot chests do not regenerate their contents, so if you go to a structure that's already been looted you might not find any discs.

You have until the end of Events Night on Sunday 21st August to find as many discs as possible! After that you will not be able to earn any more points. Inventories will then be synched until the end of August to allow you t...

The clues, for out of game reference:

C418 - 13 - One of the more common discs, found in a chest on wheels!
C418 - cat - Hidden away in an structure in a very hot climate. You remember how to solve the puzzle, right?
C418 - blocks - Stolen by pirates who stick to tradition when hiding their loot. X marks the spot.
C418 - chirp - This disc is located in the ruins of a strangely familiar building.
C418 - far - This disc is still with it's traditional keeper, but only a stray arrow can help you recover it.
C418 - mall - You'll have to travel a long way to find this. Try not to bump your head on the ceiling too much when you get there.
C418 - mellohi - This disc is being held by some of the smallest and most useless hostile mobs. Depending on where you look, Silk Touch may make it harder to find them.
C418 - stal - The large creatures that have this disc think it helps with fatigue. Retrieving it from them will be a monumental task.
C418 - strad - Sometimes available from a friendly fellow in blue.
C418 - ward - Recreate a bug from an early Wild Update beta and give someone an extra large meal!
C418 - 11 - This disc is now in the posession of a necromancer who holds the key to resurrection.
C418 - wait - Participate in the ultimate battle with this flying beast, and hope your disc doesn't fall off the edge!
Lena Raine - otherside - You will need to be very very quiet when looking for this disc.
Lena Raine - Pigstep - Stolen from the piglins, this disc is now found in chests that are under the protection of some of the strongest denizens of the nether.
Samuel Åberg - - 5 Ancient Cities were plundered and many fragments of this disc were taken, but their new owners would much rather have some gold.
