The seed is: -8131886251072701241

  • Woodland Mansion: -3400, -2280
  • Mushroom Island: -858, -735
  • Swamp Village: -400, 2224

This seed drops players on the coast of a sea. To the south is a mixture of plains, forest, savanna, cherry grove, and swamp. This swamp has three villages near it, making a Minecraft villager trading hall easy to set up for mending. In the sea to the north of spawn, players will find a large mushroom island, upon which a great communal Minecraft survival base can be built.


2) Double Mushroom islands

The seed is: -7864862588516492354

  • Mushoom Islands: 2103, 1105
  • Mushroom Islands: -3101, 2403
  • Woodland Mansion: -840, 760
  • Woodland Mansion: 584, -2056
  • Village: 64, -464

This seed is amazing for a small friendly SMP due to having two different mushroom island areas near spawn, one to the east and one to the west. Players could split into teams, using each mushroom island chain as a Minecraft survival base area. The seas near spawn are filled with ocean monuments to take on, and there are two woodland mansions ready to be conquered near spawn as well.


3) Villages and Cities

  • Village cluster 1: 933, -183
  • Village cluster 2: 386, -1106
  • Ancient City: -328, 232
  • Ancient City: -136, 424
  • Ancient City: -136, 776

This seed spawns players in a small meadow near an equally small forest and taigas. To the south, there are mountains and villages. These mountains have several ancient cities that members of the SMP could take on as a group. This would minimize the danger that Minecraft's warden mob poses.

There are also two clusters of four villages near spawn that should provide more than enough loot to jumpstart a small SMP in mid-game.


4) Triple-mansion desert spawn

  • Village: 80, 320
  • Village: 672, -896
  • Pillager Outpost: -656, -1200

What makes this seed good for setting up a small Minecraft SMP is the expansive desert immediately to the west of spawn. This desert is flush with villages, desert temples, and pillager outposts. These should provide more than enough loot for a small SMP. There are also three woodland mansions to the east to take on, as well as several ancient cities underneath mountains southwest of spawn.


5) Faction Areas

  • Village: -2864, -880
  • Witch Hut: -728, 1368
  • Ocean Monument: -1192, -120

This amazing SMP seed sets itself apart from the competition by having a pretty unique setup for faction lands. There is a central ocean with three large arms of land extending into it. Each of these arms has different biomes, terrains, and structures and could be claimed by a different SMP team. There's even a small Minecraft mushroom island biome to set up a central meeting hub.


6) Tri-coastal spawn

  • Village: 1136, 1440
  • Mushroom Island: 482, -124
  • Ocean Monument: 152, -216

This interesting Minecraft SMP seed spawns players in the middle of a triangular ocean on a small jungle island. This could make for a cool SMP setup, with factions being formed by which beach of the triangle a player swamps. There's even a small mushroom island near the center of the sea, which could act as a nice meeting hub and trading area for the different factions.


7) Survival island SMP

  • Village: -416, 944
  • Pillager Outpost: 1296, 784
  • Village: 1280, 112
  • Village: 1696, -1504
  • Ancient City: -1000, -1448

This seed puts players on a small island with a second just across a small channel. This island consists of a few small forests, plains, and stony shore biomes. There are villages, pillager outposts, and beautiful biomes, such as cherry groves, in every direction. This would make a perfect seed for a small SMP where the main base is kept on this surival spawn island.


8) Mushroom archipelago

  • Woodland Mansion: -792, 1864
  • Pillager Outpost: -144, 1024
  • Village: -1856, -240
  • Mushroom Islands: 1548, -781

This seed spwans players in a coastal plains biome. There are five villages to the west, a few witch huts to the north, pillager outposts and a woodland mansion to the south, and a mushroom island archipelago to the east. These mushroom islands would make for a great communal base while taking on the many combat structures nearby.


9) Lots of swamp villages

The seed is: -877035631540025498

  • Village: -304, -688
  • Village: 400, 1136
  • Village: 400, 1968
  • Village: -1072, 768
  • Pillager Outpost: -1424, 576

This seed is amazing for its future-proofing. With Mojang's controversial Minecraft villager trading changes coming at any point in the future, having villages near swamps, or already in swamps, is smart for keeping trading halls functional. This Minecraft seed spawns players near a southern-spanning swamp with a total of eight villages around its perimeter, more than enough for a large-scale communal trading hall.


10) Triple Mansion Swamp Spawn

  • Woodland Mansion: -664, -744
  • Woodland Mansion: -2184, -936
  • Woodland Mansion: -4504, 1496
  • Village: 1488, 208
  • Pillager Outpost: -1216, 608

This Minecraft seed spawns players near two different witch huts. This area can be revisited later on to set up a valuable Minecraft witch farm for the server to share. There are villages to the east and west, so players could split into teams if desired or stick together as a group. There are three woodland mansions near spawn that need to be taken down, so sticking as a group, at least initially, is probably the wiser decision.
