I am new to the game. I live in Michigan, play in the evening, and would like to find a server that is in daylight hours when I play. I would also like to play on a server with as little customization done as possible. This is called "vanilla"? I'm finding it difficult wading through the server list. Any help would be appreciated.

Does one need a password?

Does your server run basic rules? What is day night cycle?
