You enter a server that is heavily exploited. This exploiter obviously put some time into their work, and had, in fact, erected an impressively designed Colosseum in the place of the entire map. There are three noticable areas of this monument, the crowds, the fighting arena in the center, and the roofed preperation area surrounding the arena. The arena seems to be a cropped piece of Mainland, stripped of everything but elevation and ponds, with a mischievious afterthought of leaving a magma pool in the center of the map. The maximum players was expanded to the full 50 people.

You happened to spawn in the arena, apparently right after a very exciting fight ended, because you could see chatbubbles from nearly all twenty or so crowd-members, and a bento-clad fellow with an iron spear was walking away, to vanish into one of the doorways to a preparation area. As you are only JUST becoming accustomed to your surroundings, the exploiter teleports to you, and in a menial enough tone, explains the whole shebang.

"Hey there. This is my very own blood-sport arena, and you are now a part of a unique experience. You'll be starting off with 10 small stones, two small leaves and two tree stumps, for every battle you win, I'll give you six gold coins. The vendors in the preparation area's will take those and sell you materials for your next fights. Good luck." And with that, the exploiter TPed back to his own theater box to watch the next match.

Over the next little while, you learn the prices of other goods, and much to your chagrin, they do not distribute tools or buildings or processed foods, only ores and other raw materials.

Nothing is stopping you from leaving, reporting the exploiter to an admin, etc. However, this all seems like too much fun to pass up just so you don't have a hard time, aye?
