This is an interesting game mode idea, one that I had though of a while back when I was playing around with a Slenderman skin (one that I could easily get back if the "Ender" wishes to use it). Here are some suggestions:

- Have a moderator or admin present whenever a game starts, to keep it night throughout the duration of the game.
- See if there is a way to keep the name from appearing above the Ender player, so people won't be able to see him or her behind trees or through walls and the like.

Of course there are other things that would need to be smoothed out, but I like the idea of a team-based horror minigame in Minecraft.

First of all, Archstorm, you're awesome.

Anyways, if the moon really was to explode, the results would be catastrophic, if not cataclysmic. Let's go with two scenarios.

1. The moon disappears, or disintegrates into particles too small to really affect the earth, we would still experience rather terrifying consequences. Tides would no longer depend on the moons gravitational force, and the oceans would become unpredictable. Ways of submarine life would die out. Additionally, Earth's own gravitational orbit around the sun would be ever so slightly altered, which could potentially cause us to move into an orbit closer to the sun, causing the atmosphere to ignite and burn the planet into a ball of molten slag to be sold away by Slaveens, or move farther away from the sun, effectively creating another ice age and freezing over the surface of the planet. Either way, all life on Earth ends.

2. If the moon literally exploded, sending large lunar chunks into our general direction, our demise would be much flashier, and much faster. Assuming the explosion originated in the center of the moon and sent all debris out in a perfect 360 decree arc, I'd say still over half of the mass of the moon would enter our atmosphere at some point or another. It would be a massive asteroid storm on a nearly global level. Depending on the size and speed of the moon rocks, the storm would either devastate the surface of our planet and millions would lose their lives, or- if the explosion sent asteroids moving at nearly the speed of light- would crush through the entire planet, essentially causing the planet to explode into a state of plasma with fired particles shooting out the back side of the impact, the fiery remnants of earth scouring the surfaces of Mars and Venus.

So there ya have it. Either way, bad things happen.
