You should definitely go back and follow one of the teams from the ongoing season to see how play works and form an understanding of basic strategies.
The most important thing is to power up as soon as you can, which involves caving.
Most desirable ores are iron (for tools, weapons, armor, and anvil), gold (for golden apples, for healing) and diamonds (for diamond weapons and enchanting table).
Getting string is hyper important, as that means bows, even if arrows are hard to come by.
There's no time for farming, so kill as many edible mobs as possible to have a store of food for the long haul.
IF you see another team be sure to get your entire team to CROUCH DOWN so that the other guys can't spot YOUR nametag.
That's my first wave of advice.
