#How to make people op in minecraft servers

[mcyt-builds-contest]

The Frost Citadel

Builder : TangoTek

Series : Hermitcraft Season 9

Propaganda : decked out is not only an incredible build on the OUTSIDE, with a great colour scheme and a lot of detail, it's also a hugely important build for the season in general - being the place most people would hang out for the last few months of the server - and importantly a redstone MASTERPIECE. how did this man create literally an entire game with a point buy system and effect cards and randomised threats in minecraft?! like this is vanilla. i think the only mod used was for the disc system and even then he was ready to run that without mods. on so many levels this is such a fantastic build.

The Winter Cabin

Builder : Technoblade and Philza

Series : DSMP

Propaganda : techno and phil's cabins are THE build they're what minecraft is to me maybe not impressive or huge. they use common materials. there's no redstone mechanics. but they're what minecraft is about: making a place yours. making something with your friend. genuinely the most meaningful build in my opinion because it was simple and cozy and made sense for these characters! the stable with carl right in front. the dog house. the soft glow of the beacon. the fact their cabins are connected. similar but not the same. that's my propaganda op. that these cabins sum up what makes minecraft so lovely. and are a great memory for techno. | It's cozy and safe. The perfect hideaway for anyone looking to plan revenge and hold political book clubs. Includes three main houses and a giant training area. It has many adorable animals, including Steve. A polar bear.

i gonna be so real and honest here and say that some of you do not know how to read:

QSMP2024 is still the same damn server with the same damn lore and they are STILL ON THE SAME DAMN ISLAND

Phil pointed out yesterday how they were 200k blocks away, today Luzu tried using the waystones but they were deactivated because the waystones in the og spawn and surrounding areas are still there, when Cucurucho was going around talking to the islanders he asked “how are you liking THIS PART of the island”

there wasnt no lore restart nor this is a new server, the lore is still there, but this is day TWO of this new era of fucking course theres no lore, bad even said that today on stream that “there could be lore at any point.” the eggs even have immunity!

yes! it was kinda shitty that Richas and Pomme went without Phil to rescue Cellbit and Baghera but maybe, just maybe, you guys should remember that this people have lives outside of the server and maybe phil couldn’t make it to the recording of the video!

Willy pointed out today that the reason he stopped logging in when he first joined the server was because everyone else was already way too OP with literal castles and armor so tough they would barely get scratched by mobs when he barely had diamond armor, so he got discouraged and didn’t logged on again. Now that everyone is back at being balanced he wants to log in again! Maybe even tell Vegetta to log in again!!

edit but also general minecraft knowledge: they probably traveled so far out to get new world generation because they jumped from 1.18 to 1.20 (from what i can see because the spawn wouldn’t generate stuff like deep dark don’t generate on already loaded chunks), so that is why they are 200k+ blocks out. also the create mod didnt got taken out, its just disabled at the moment because the admins probably dont want another tubchunk.

you guys SERIOUSLY need to stop doomposting and trust in the admins and in Quackity.

UPDATE: Baghera has talked about having planning issues and thats why they had to cancel the rescue mission with Phil!

and Fit said that his lore is STILL ONGOING

[cod-dump]

You know what I really liked the MP videogame ask so i want to try again

Multiplayer games and who's banned from them:

Cod zombies: gaz, horangi

Halo coop (campaign firefight spartan ops): roach

New Minecraft server: kronig, roach

Elden ring: ghost

Fallout 76: price, roach

Mario kart: soap

Battlefield: roach, kronig, ghost

For honor: kronig, horangi

Day z: price, gas

War thunder: nikolai, kamarov

Smash bros: laswell, mama mctavish

Horangi has abandoned Gaz and left him to fend for himself so many times while playing Zombies. But if Gaz does it to him he will physically fight him, and he doesn’t care who’s in between them. It’s only with Gaz, for some reason. He’ll help anyone else but Gaz. Gaz returns the favor. Horangi forces them to play Mob of the Dead then screams about it later. Gaz also picks the worst maps to get back at Horangi. They are no longer allowed to play together, especially after the Hell Hound Incident.

“Gaz… No-“

“It’s too late, Hong-Jin. There’s nothing I can do-“

“KYLE-“

“Goodbye, Hong-Jin. You won’t be missed.”

“DON’T LEAVE ME-“

Horangi gets obliterated by hell hounds as Gaz watched. That marked the last time they played together.

___

It’s not that Roach tries to make them fail— He just sucks at the game. He’s not big on shooters and panics when the enemy swarm him. Thankfully there isn’t friendly fire because he has wasted so much ammo on teammates. He has shot Ghost so many times and then screams when the enemy show up. He’s been banned from playing now and cries about being excluded despite knowing he sucks ass at the game.

“GHOST- HOLY SHIT— I’M OUT OF AMMO!”

Ghost ignores him.

“PLEASE THE BRUTE—“

Loud sighing.

“Thank you-“

“Shut the fuck up.”

___

Once more, they allowed Roach to play Minecraft with everyone. No one has said anything about his past crimes so König is unaware of how Roach is when he plays. That’s okay. König is worse. Everyone got together and took over a village and made it their own… and König discovered a Ancient City under it. He had made a massive mine that allowed the Warden to get to the surface relatively easy. Everyone was screaming and discovered all of their loot was misplaced (stolen) and they all had to run and abandon the village. Now both König and Roach are banned from playing. That’s fine, they went a made a server together.

___

Don’t trust Ghost when he says he knows a place while playing Elden Ring because he does know a place. A place where you’ll die without a chance to defend yourself. If he dies to a boss he’ll lure the others to that same boss and watch them die. He has days on this game, way above everyone else, so if he dies to a boss they don’t even have a chance. They don’t play with him anymore.

___

Price enjoys attacking people on Fallout 76. He constantly has a bounty on him. Roach took after him quickly in this game because they both tried to kill each other and failed. Now they team up and hunt everyone else. Since Price has reached the SPECIAL cap and is now using his power for evil, the entire game turned into a manhunt. You can’t bribe either of them to leave you be. You can’t join them either. All you can do is run. Though Ghost has gotten the jump on Roach, he didn’t escape Price. Needless to say they don’t play with them anymore.

“I see you-“

“FUCK OFF NO YOU DON’T!”

Soap gets shot in the head. Roach did in fact see him.

___

Soap is a bitch at Mario Kart. Don’t try to play as Wario. Wario is reserved for Soap and Soap alone. He has a deadly aim with shells and always picks one person to target each game. He’s not even trying to win, he’s just trying to fuck over his chosen victim. He pisses off everyone when he does this and has actually been punched over it before. Only those who don’t know him play with him. The fools.

___

They were all excited for Battlefield 5. Then Roach, König, and Ghost reminded them all why they can’t have nice things. So much screaming and cussing and literal death threats. Roach always chases the closest person. He usually goes after König because he panics and can’t aim worth shit when he panics but sometimes he goes after Ghost… and immediately regrets it. If Roach or König get the drop on Ghost— They’re dead in real life. If the three are on the same team they spend the entire time fucking each other over. Soap hates playing with them because they don’t take the game as seriously as he does.

___

When playing For Honor, König is actually scary good at this game. At first he helped out Horangi but once Horangi showed a tiny bit of skill it was over. König insists that he targets Horangi because he just wants to help him improve. Everyone knows that’s a lie. It doesn’t matter if they’re on the same team or not, König goes after Horangi. He’s nice to everyone else but Horangi gets ‘special treatment’.

“FUCK YOU!” Horangi screams after König team kills him and then refuses to revive him.

“I love you~”

Horangi doesn’t feel loved.

___

Price and Gaz started playing Day Z to have something just for them. After they got a good footing in the game they decided to be nice and invite everyone else to play with them. They helped everyone get started. Helped them get okay gear and weapons… then the betrayal. Everyone was cussing and screaming as Price and Gaz killed them and took their gear.

“Execute Order 66,” muttered Price.

That would be their only warning before all went to hell.

___

War Thunder is normally only played by Nik and Kamarov. It’s their game and they usually play when no one else around, meaning no one had any clue to what they were like. Have you ever been sniped by a tank? No? Don’t worry, Nik will make sure you have a lovely experience. You won’t even see him and you’re dead. There’s a lot of Russian screaming, you have no idea what’s going on, and Kamarov just dived bomb you for the third time in a row. Nik and Kamarov are a deadly team. Price flipped his tank and Nik and Kamarov didn’t kill him but did keep everyone else from helping Price.

___

The one time Laswell was over for game night, Soap’s mom also happened to be there. To be nice they all picked a fun game that the two would be able to enjoy. A game that, normally, none of them rage over. Soap’s mom picked Kirby, gushing over how cute he was, while Laswell picked Toon Link. Soap had forgotten that his mom plays this game with his nieces and nephews and only mentioned it after she kicked everyone’s ass. Only Laswell stood a chance against her. Soap automatically cheered for his mom but quieted down after a murderous glare from Laswell. They all discovered Laswell’s competitive nature and that Soap’s mom was a sore loser that night. They swore to never play Smash Bros again.

so team de lundi is just a group that plays games together sometimes? what games do they play? who’s part of it?

Pretty much yes. You know what I decided to make a resume of the "Team du Lundi" here as a post to explain everything to those who'd like to know. (I'll present the streamers part of it and maybe their part or quirks when they were on their smp. Also want to clarify that the server did not really have lore, an the fact that he players come from there is mostly headcanon, but the relations between the players could very much be considered some)

Team du Lundi (litterally "Team of Monday") is a group of friend streamers that streams games together every monday evening. They are quite a few though not all are here every monday depending on wants of each, motivation, and the game they decided to play. (Among the most common are : Antoine Daniel, JDG, AngleDroit (That I'll call Florence, because that's how most people call her), Mynthos, and Zerator.)

First the streamers who ARE on qsmp :

Baghera Jones : She is part of it, though not there every monday (but still often.) On the minecraft server she had a home she shared with HortyUnderscore (another streamer and her best friend IRL), and developped a rivalry with JDG, one upping each other in annoying pranks and constructions.

Etoiles : Not as often present, but still an important part of the group. He very much had the same role on their minecraft server as on the qsmp : Explore, get stuff for the others, and do rescue missions from time to time.

Antoine Daniel : The initiater of Team du Lundi, (he's the one who made the discord server that ultimately became the team.), the most staple, I would say ; He's the one that is there almost every monday. On the server he decided to build his base very quickly, and so he chose the easiest block to get early on : Dirt, but he also wanted to make his base the biggest it could be, and so the TDM (Tour de Merde : "Tower of Shit) was born. (He ended up working on it for the entire lifespan of the server)

Now the others, that I will go a bit more quickly on :

JDG (Joueur Du Grenier, Fred) : One of the streamers present the most often, also one of our oldest youtubers in france (both in how long he's been there and age, he's 40) The new theme Pomme's been playing on her flute is actually his youtube channel's intro song (it's very famous in france). His minecraft skin is just himself, and on the server he was known to be the op and creator, and tended to cheat from time to time (giving himself creative mode when frustrated on a construction)

Mynthos : Also a very present one, he's actually been referenced on qsmp by the french ccs there : He's the source of Mynthos Juice (a private joke). On the server he made different kind of farms for food and stuff for the others. His mc skin is way too cursed for me to describe.

Zerator : Often there, though not always because very busy, one of the biggest french streamers. He didn't spend a lot of time on the server. His mc skin is just himself.

Florence (AngleDroit) : She is one of the most present ones. Her time on the server was mostly trying not to die, and build her house in a tree. Her minecraft skin is of a dressed fox.

HortyUnderscore : She is there from time to time, and actually is Baghera's IRL best friend (fun fact Quackity actually asked her if she wanted to come on the server be she declined because of planning, and being too busy, Baghera explained all that) Her mc skin is of a personnalised dressed Squidward. (this is not a joke)

MisterMV : Is one of the ogs of Team du Lundi though, comes less often now due to being busy, still a close friend to everyone, and has his own TTRPG series : Games of Roles. He wasn't on the mc server, but still considered part of the team.

And then there is guests from time to time that I'll not enumerate here.

I think that's everyone.

(Aypierre's not part of it, but the guy has been streaming minecraft since launch so his backstory has a hundred possibilities)

im asking abt modpack design. what makes a good modpack? Is that the same as a balanced modpack? how many way are there to work around mods not wanting to coexist & how much work usually goes into packs you make?

Ive slapped together a few packs for myself that took a few allnighters back when i wasnt sleeping anyway lol. then wanted to play with friends and had to slim it down to something all our pcs could handle.... fun times

oh boy here we go... What makes a good modpack is simply: Fun. Not every good modpack is balanced, and not every balanced modpack is good. Generally, the more balanced a modpack is, the better it is, but you can have crazy op superflyingdragonkilling ultra 9000 swords and still have lots of fun with them, as long as they aren't literally made out of dirt. An example I like to use when people ask "well how could an unbalanced modpack be fun?" is the Minecraft but X is OP! type datapacks that are pretty common in clickbait YouTube thumbnails. Those are really fun to mess around with! Balanced? Oh gods no. But sometimes how ludicrous it is can be the fun in and of itself. A balanced modpack is one where your power level as a player is roughly proportionate to how much time you invest into it. It's roughly self explanatory but can be a bit hard for me to put an example to with something in regular minecraft. Another, minor aspect of a good modpack imo is the environment and ambient atmosphere of everything. If you have a mod with mspaint sprites that are plastered everywhere, it's gonna ruin immersion and make the game less serious, which is a big component of keeping a modpack engaging and therefore fun. In terms of getting mods to work that just refuse to? For some performance related backend mods there are alternatives (LazyDFU and DataFixerSlayer, Rubidium/Sodium and Embeddium, etc.) that could solve issues, but more often that not, if it's a crash, you just gotta cope and take one of them out of the pack. If it's a not crash related issue, for example for balance or something related to, you can always remove the mobs / items / anything else that is causing issues with mods like Bad Mobs, You Shall Not Spawn, or Item Obliterator. I usually put 1-2 weeks of work into a good serious modpack, but I mostly make kitchen sinks, and the longest project I ever worked on personally took me around 2 months to fully complete and be ready. Custom textures, modifying datapacks, tweaking mods and finding new ones, all to create an intensely immsersive atmosphere for a roleplay server that never ended up going live. (yeouch) Slimming down modpacks is honestly tough, but I just like to focus on a direct theme or two. Earlier this week I had a pack with 218 mods that i slimmed down to just under 100 by cutting out chaff and really focusing on the 3 lines of progression the people wanted. (Tech, Magic, Adventure) If you ever want help making a modpack for anything, hmu! DM me here and I'll toss you my discord :D (this goes for anyone)

[hanguangbuns]

mdzs characters' minecraft play-styles

wei ying: redstone genius. and a master at social engineering. he uses both for chaos. he played on anarchy servers in middle school, and therefore a menace for all his friends who play casually. hes the type to try to crystal pvp jiang cheng and "accidentally" blows up his 24 dogs. nowadays, as an adult, he makes redstone machine tutorials and lag machines on servers for trolling purposes. he makes amazing pixel art

lan zhan: doesnt play computer games much but only played because wei ying played it. wei ying tried to goad him into playing together on one of those large public servers when they were teens but he refused. however he secretly went home and asked his uncle to buy him a copy and he proceeded to only play in creative mode for the rest of his life. he is also a redstone genius. he mostly makes aesthetic builds rather than actually beat the game.

jiang cheng: plays the game and does every thing right, but at some point he starts getting bored and wonders what the point of all of it is. he tames as many wolves as he can and has them run around killing mobs with him. he plays in survival single player, never in a server. wei ying always makes him open his world to LAN so they can play together, and he knows, he KNOWS he shouldnt, but somehow he does and ends up regretting it. his house that he took 2 irl days to build is now on fire. he gives up

nie huaisang: forever noob who only played because his friend wei ying convinced him to. he doesnt understand how to play it no matter how many times its explained to him. keeps asking questions about what to do after he chopped the wood. how does he get a sword. why isnt this stone dropping an item after he breaks the block. etc. when he does eventually get the hang of the game, he makes pretty houses and structures thats actually pretty good for a beginner.

nie mingjue: god at PVP and a legend in PVP servers for his extremely OP gear but also kind enough to help beginners that join. in survival he brute forces his way through the game and punches the mobs with his bare fists on the first night, no gear no weapons, low health low hunger. when things settle he tames a cat and makes a nice home. he plays only a couple hours a week bc he has to hit the gym. its comedic watching a grown, muscular man play minecraft

meng yao: set up a public multiplayer server with lots of special plugins and functionality it really looks like a good, legit server. however, no one except lan huan really joins anyways, but he puts his best into the server. whenever he finds out about people that shit talks him or just simply disagrees with him he has xue yang join their servers and grief their world.

lan huan: mostly watched his little brother play on the computer when they were younger but lan zhan let him play if he asked. hes fascinated by all the things to possibly do in the game, and likes the cute little animals. he also really likes lan zhan's builds and tries to make cute little houses himself! he was curious one day and played on survival, and by the time night came around he was panicking when all the mobs came chasing after him. he never played again

lan sizhui: actually plays the game fairly seriously even when all his friends are going around causing chaos in a nearby village. is that one friend that can balance playtime without impacting his school or social life, only on for a few hours a day but uses it wisely. he likes to make automatic farms with the redstone wisdom his mentor wwx bestowed upon him, and even goes the extra mile to make it OSHA certified—he labels everything and organizes all his chests by demension and block type. once in a while, he lets loose when his friends are in a particularly goofy mood

lan jingyi: lets out all his frustrations of real life into skywars and hunger games. he’s really good at parkour too. his favorite thing to do is troll jin ling. his setup is a shitty laptop he uses for school where the frames never peak past 15 fps and the wifi automatically cuts off at 10 pm in his household. he uses every minute he can get.

jin ling: insane rig set up purchased with both father’s and jiujiu’s money and plays with resource-intensive BSL shader mods on java and RTX settings on bedrock. he still gets beat in bedwars by Jingyi on a chromebook. every world he joins he finds and tames a wolf as fast as he can and names it after his irl dog, Fairy. once his dog got blown up by a creeper and he was inconsolable for days

ouyang zizhen: doesnt play minecraft much but will play with his friends on big multiplater servers when asked. the quartet plays factions and they all named him the leader except he never really gets online anyways

xiao xingchen: likes to play on a small, private server he port forwarded just for him and song lan. they played on easy mode and built houses and farms together and beautiful structures. soon, their world was joined by A’Qing, and eventually xue yang, except they didnt know it was xue yang and one day found their world tragically griefed

song lan: only played when xiao xingchen asked him to play. he suspected the player that joined their world was xue yang but he could never actually prove it and xiao xingchen would always give the player the benefit of the doubt.

xue yang: notorious griefer, hacker, and feared troller. he finds private servers with no whitelist and logs in to grief their world as fast as he can. he uses every trolling technique in the book: lava casts, wither boss spawns, illegal items, etc. he looks up to wei ying, a LEGEND in the mc trolling community, in hopes he can get his attention, but wei ying does not approve of his actions at all—HE never trolled and griefed private servers where people put their heart and soul into creating, only the big ones where admins would scam people out of their money. everytime xue yang is banned from a world, he just hops on an alternate account.

A’Qing: loves to get OP gear and make massive builds. however, after joining xxc she gets a new goal: to seek revenge against xue yang for what he did to the server. at some point, she finds her way into meng yao’s server and griefs xue yang’s base with massive amounts of lava buckets. sadly, it was only a temporary success because the server was easily rolled back. she’ll find a way

The great fabric vs forge ramble

two people want to hear my ramblings im going to ramble now.

Essentially, my main thoughts about forge and fabric is that they’re two modloaders for entirely different audiences of minecraft playstyle. I’m speaking from the perspective of someone who’s been playing minecraft since the indev versions, and thus a lot... a lot of hours playing modded minecraft.

Putting this under a readmore because it became really long lmao

From my experience with making modpacks for my friends and digging through pages upon pages of fabric mods, Fabric is GREAT for general-audiences type packs. There is rarely anything very complex in there. Almost every fabric mod is easy to understand and get into. There’s very little truly gameplay changing mods, save for some outliers that have recently sprung up/been ported from forge. If I have to mention the biggest gameplay changing mods for fabric, that was native to fabric, i’d have to say tech reborn, bewitchment, and origins are the ones that immediately come to mind. 

This makes fabric, as I mentioned, great for general audiences type gameplay. Vanilla+. Friendly for your-average-streamer server and for anyone that wants to play modded with their friends that aren’t as familiar with the game. It’s the people pleaser modloader, because nearly all mods will have people generally go “yeah I like that.” You won’t have people fighting over a selection in your modpack you made for your little server. And that isn’t bad! It’s very good that we have a much more accessible modloader and library of mods.

But by god is it boring and disappointing sometimes to go through curseforge’s fabric category and see vanilla+ upon vanilla+ mod. “More decorative blocks”, “more furniture”, “more mobs”, “QOL tweaks”, “dimension mod that is essentially an excuse to add new blocks and mobs and nothing else”, “biome overhaul/biome mod”. 

Want to find a magic mod? Tough shit. You get incredibly, incredibly basic magic mods. Or, you get things entirely unbalanced for multiplayer. Or its literally just “here’s another new oretype past netherite thats OP as hell and doesn’t’ actually change gameplay.”. It’s like people don’t know how to make mods that aren’t just decorative or making the player overpowered.

And then you look at Forge, and you see the wild shit that they have going on there. And I know that a part of it is that forge has been around for much longer and thus has a lot more experienced devs on it that can do crazy shit, but there’s still that part of me that’s just sad.

From thaumcraft to electroblob’s wizardry, we just don’t see this in fabric.  Except for this guy trying to bring thaumcraft over to fabric as practice big props to this guy me and my friends are quietly cheering him on.

Moving on- Forge is the modloader for people who want complexity in their gameplay. Who want a different gameplay experience from vanilla.

Forge is for experienced players, and focused groups. Forge is generally, not great for easy youtube or stream content, nor is it good for pleasing a general audience. It’s not great for servers that have varying skill levels of play, because by adding complex content (and often difficulty enhancing) mods you alienate the players that aren’t as good at the game. This doesn’t make forge worse, however, but it makes it visibly different when you’re looking to mod your game. 

Now, to talk about the elephant in the room, forge is perpetually stuck at 1.12 for the most part. There’s some movement and there’s some newer ones at 1.18 and 1.19, but a majority of known forge mods are for 1.12 and below. This further adds to the feeling that forge is for experienced players that seek gameplay different from vanilla, because those kinds of players would mind the older versions a lot less compared to someone who is less experienced and thus wouldn’t be so inclined to seek gameplay that differs from vanilla- because they haven’t experienced vanilla as much!

When you look at the repertoire of forge modpacks and forge mods, so many of them are big, gameplay changing mods, and nearly all forge modpacks make sure to include them too, meaning that you are stuck at older versions. 

Now, back in the day I didn’t mind this very much as I primarily played singleplayer. But now that I mainly play multiplayer with my friends, this is painfully noticeable. My friends dont’ want to play older versions! And that’s perfectly understandable. But that means we’re forced to stick to fabric, because ultimately fabric has the most mods for latest and updates the fastest, and they prefer being on latest! And honestly I don’t want to play on older  versions all the time too because certain recent updates sure were good!! And there’s no way to play on latest *and* have those gameplay changing mods that would make my gameplay more interesting *while* having the latest update on.

And I think that’s really just the main point of that whole debate. Forge players would love to update, but they can’t because of how slow it all is. And that’s not the fault of the forge modders or the modloader, because development teams all work differently. And telling them to move to fabric isn’t going to cut it, because fabric lacks the things they want, and being told to move to fabric and abandon the things you like and care about because “fabric is better” when it does not fulfil the things you want in a modded game is annoying, and shows a lack of understanding of why they even play those older versions and mods in the first place.

The weird war between forge and fabric is not because one is inherently better than the other, its because people don’t understand that one does not appeal to the other because it’s lacking what the former had.

And SURE. Fabric has a great repertoire of mods, but as I mentioned before- A majority of it is vanilla+. And if you’re a years-long forge player with the wildest and most complex modpacks, vanilla+ wont make you happy no matter how many of those mods are there.

That’s essentially the end of my ramblings. Hope it was comprehensible at any point lmao.

Kizuna loves Rivers anywhere. She gets to sit in her little boat and fish.

Naofumi can remember all the potion recipes.

Naofumi, together with his younger brother, decoded the Enchanted Book Text together and they refused to share it, saying "With great knowledge, comes great responsibility"

Motoyasu is a little too trigger-happy about TNT and is always the first to volunteer if something has to get blown up. He has a stupid amount of TNT. (Reason his fav biome is the Desert)

Therese has the most broken chance of finding diamonds. Someone else just discovered their first one and she already has a chest half full of stacks.

Glass has an interesting goal of getting at least one ghast with a saddle on each server she's on. Once, everyone has to go on a whole hunt for ghast tears, because Glass had named and saddled many of them, and no one wanted to be assassinated because they killed one of Glass's ghasts.

Naofumi is the local chicken farmer.

Itsuki is the one who trades with villagers the most and takes down the most Pillagers.

Everyone had started setting up alarms/traps because of the number of times Ren had come into their bases undetected. He didn't steal or break anything, he was just there and gave everyone a scare each time.

Alike Therese's Diamond Luck, Kizuna has a stupid chance of getting OP loot from fishing. She loves using fucking rods.

L'Arc is the best at organizing his items and chests.

L'Arc also loves buildings castles as bases.

You need food? Naofumi's got it. It does not matter how much he's given out, he's got more. Everyone had eaten all their own food, and he still got enough to give everyone half a stack of cooked meat continuously. No one sees him making it when he seemingly runs out, and the first few times he was accused of cheating, but he never did. He's just always got food on him.

Ren and Itsuki are the best PVPs when the group is playing Minecraft in VR, while Kizuna and Glass are best in normal gaming.

Naofumi annoyed everyone with how OP some of his Shields and Armor get because it's so OP it takes a stupid amount of time to kill him.

Filo is the best at using an Elytra but she prefers just messing around in creative mode.

Naofumi will sometimes let her onto a shared server and get her as many materials as possible or get her creative mode just to terrorize other players.

Kizuna likes making her bases look like comfy little fisher huts near a river or beach, only for there to be a gigantic underground base beneath it.

From the Discord Server:

Shared by @eli-elien and @small-spark-of-light :D

Itsuki likes to make those aesthetic soft-core fairy builds.

If Itsuki is playing with someone he doesn’t like he will deliberately be useless out of spite.

Naofumi does Redstone or other intricate machine stuff.

Ren kills so many mobs he’s the designated enchanter solely because of how much XP he has.

Motoyasu does PVP he's decent but not as good as ren tho.

Crack HC; Ren plays Bedwars and is painfully good at it.

Motoyasu is the most useless out of all of them in Minecraft

Filo has made so many worlds of just her messing around in creative mode everyone is a disaster

Raphtalia is a PVPer she has a rivalry with ren They are forever equally matched for humor's sake.

Motoyasu has many MC girlfriends

Naofumi is also crackheaded like Idk how to explain it other than perhaps he's similar to Philza Minecraft but likes not bc it's Philza Minecraft no compares to that man.

Naofumi is mainly responsible for getting materials, but he gets Ren to do mining with him

(In response to my TNT-Happy Motoyasu HC) Motoyasu has bombed the base many times

Honorary Mention: Myne is a leech but that’s not a HC

[blockgamepirate]

So there’s another one of those cool Hermitcraft trivia posts circulating again which I kinda wanna reblog but also I’m feeling a little bit hesitant because some of the points seem maybe a little bit inaccurate or exaggerated? Like I’d like to fact check them first at least.

(Particularly what stuck out to me was the point about season two only happening because Joe did a coup, because that’s not how I understood that story the way Joe and Xisuma have told it? Or at least as far as I can remember... the impression I had was that Xisuma was mainly the person who took the initiative to keep the server going but Joe was one who broke the gridlock on whether or not they should add new members by just straight up inviting Cleo without asking the others.)

(So maybe a more accurate way to phrase it is that without Xisuma season 2 wouldn’t have happened, but without Joe, season 2 might not have had any new members. And at this point the only still currently active Hermits who were already on the server were X, Hypno and Joe, so the lineup could have turned out very differently, if the server had even survived past season 2.)

(I could be wrong but I’m pretty sure this is how I remember hearing it?)

But what actually annoyed me was this comment from someone (not OP, to be clear) in the notes:

(cut for discourse reasons)

#these people have been around for so long #compared to dsmp where its like new white guy who popped up in 2021 fully formed LMAO

(Don’t go looking for this please, and don’t harass this person, I’m just highlighting this because it’s an example of an attitude you see a lot. It’s not just this specific person who I don’t know at all and whose url I already forgot.)

So

1:

I don’t wanna start counting diversity points on each server like it’s a fucking game, but I DO wanna point out that the “white guy“ comment is pretty rich coming from a Hermitcraft fan.

Both servers have a white guy problem.

But at least with Dream SMP I can actually think of more than one creator who isn’t white, and it didn’t take them until season 2 to add a second female member...

(I know Hermitcraft is more of a private and closed group and they have extremely strict qualifications they demand from new members, plus every current member has veto power, so it’s much harder to add new Hermits than it is to add new DSMP members where it’s all decided by One Guy, but I think some frustration about this is still justified due to how big Hermitcraft is in the MCYT community.)

It’s also extremely annoying when apparently there was a whole thing where Hermit fans were insisting that Quackity is white during the sexyman polls?? Presumably just to excuse their shitty behaviour??? idek. (And I also heard on the other hand that there were some straight up racist comments made about Quackity as well. He literally cannot win, apparently.)

2:

What is this weird attitude towards new creators?? Yes, it’s cool that Hermitcraft has been around for over a decade and that the Hermits have all these cool histories in the community and even influenced the development of the game itself, but you can celebrate that without needing to put down new people, ffs.

I know it’s annoying when the new guys suddenly get more popular than your guys, but it happens, it’s the circle of YouTube. Please chill out. No need to be a hipster about it.

Besides, even if we don’t count people like Vikkstar who admittedly didn’t play on DSMP all that much, there were still people on the server who had long histories in the MCYT community:

Phil has been making Minecraft videos at least since 2012, when he started his first Hardcore Series, and holds the record for the longest running hardcore world to date. There’s a splash text in Minecraft referencing him (”Ph1lzA had a good run!”)

Techno started his channel in 2013 and was part of the Hypixel player council (or was it called the Elite Team back then? Not sure) since he was like 14 or 15, helping with testing and game design on many of the iconic Hypixel games before the server became the biggest Minecraft server in the world. He too has a splash text in the game (”Technoblade never dies!”)

BadBoyHalo has his own PVP server called MunchyMC which was launched in 2015 and before that he was part of the staff on a different PVP server.

Also while more recent, a whole bunch of DSMP members were also on SMP Live and SMP Earth back in 2019. In fact 2019 was when a lot of the DSMP members originally got their initial boost into popularity.

Honestly the only DSMP members who fit the description of “new white guy who popped up in 2021“ are like... probably Foolish and BoomerNA??

3:

I think you probably meant 2020 anyway, because that’s when Dream, George, Sapnap, Tommy, Tubbo and Ranboo became popular. I assume so anyway because those are usually the white guys people actually seem to be talking about when they talk about DSMP white guys. (Obligatory note that Ranboo is in fact nonbinary though.)

tl;dr:

You can just hype up the Hermits and just not say anything about DSMP. That’s an option. Especially if you clearly don’t know that much about DSMP.

[xeiqua]

Some of you don't know how insane i was over Permadeath and don't even know what it is so...

I think Permadeath would've been super popular and succesful in the english minecraft youtuber/twitch community man.

Permadeath was a minecraft server event very well known in the hispanic minecraft community created by one of the most popular hispanic mcyt, his name is ElRichMC and he is also kinda well known in the english community since he has alot of connections with people there ^__^

Basically, it was placed in a Hardcore server and every 10 days they would update the server and add new stuff that would be a new challenge to the player!

They added new items (around that time netherite wasn't introduced yet, so when it got announced they used leather armor to have the same effect it WAS MORE COMPLICATE THEN THAT THOUGH), they would also use the already known mobs in the game and made them OP or more dangerous and even a whole new dimension with its own designed constructions at one point!

Every played had to try and survive for 100 whole days, if you didn't play for more then 9 days you would get kicked too, sadly, the last person alive died in day 60, which at that point it was IMPOSSIBLE TO PLAY.

(Check this video, this was the last player alive, iLuh, moments before he died, all the buttons around his base were to avoid mobs spawning, charged creepers were a constant danger which by the way they were invisible too, he uses invisible bottles in the video to avoid beeing seen by other mobs that could spawn and you can see he has only 4 hearts, if i remember correctly its because hearts were craftable with quite expensive materials, he has a totem too and there was a probability that it wouldn't work when used, he dies instantly as drowning because they updated it so it takes insane amount of damage being underwater)

Yeah it sounds like TO MUCH and it was! but keep in mind this was the first try of Rich to make Permadeath a reality, so it could be considered more of a test then anything and it's been two years now, so there is still maybe a possibility of Permadeath coming back in less then a few years (that if, Rich wants to and can, THAT GUY IS INSANE IN HIS PROJECTS)

I was SOOO INSANE OVER PERMADEATH PLEASE ASK ME ABOUT PERMADEATH I LOVE PERMADEATH!!! there was alot of insane updates too so i can talk for hours about that

I was hyperfixated on it for awhile, the guy i watched was EsVandal and he was of the last 10 players to die. sadly he has no videos or VODs saved it makes me very sad but i loved it.

I still maintain that technoblade having one life really Does go a long way in explaining and justifying his paranoia as a character despite how objectively op his skill in the game is. it’s one of those things that I’ve always thought would’ve slotted nicely into his character to flesh him out without much actual legwork being necessary. 

the problem is that the execution of that idea was more or less the worst way it could have been introduced.

- techno being on one life as a baseline means, of course, that he’s never died. this is supposed to justify the kind of paranoia that leads to him shooting his friends in the face, shooting crowds of people, setting off withers on people who were his allies minutes ago, destroying countries, etc. having technoblade Actually Die, even off screen, would justify that Fear Of Dying. obviously nobody wants to kick it, but the point is to make him more Nuanced and Vulnerable. having him start at three lives and now be at one means that he Is touchable and the fact that everyone thinks he isn’t is both Useful from his enemies and Scary coming from his allies. him being a hardcore world survivor only further serves to justify his image as techno the undying.

“why is technoblade so angry when he’s betrayed? because he was betrayed before and died for it!” it would have literally been that easy

- the whole thing with phil is that he’s on one life because he’s already died in two hardcore worlds. this could be (and probably will be) retconned, but this was supposed to be a cute little nod to phil’s pre-series minecraft days. I get that techno didn’t know this, but like Yeah Exactly. this has retroactively changed Phil’s canon, because hardcore worlds do not work the way that they did when he joined the server. there’s no point in trying to argue whether phil knew that wilbur was on one life or not when he killed him anymore, because now phil didn’t know there Were more lives.

- and actually on that note, why Does wilbur have three lives if he would’ve Also been born in a hardcore world? he’s phil’s son, phil lived in hardcore worlds before the dream smp and that is the reason why he only has one life, why was wilbur different? this wasn’t an inconsistency until yesterday.

- he literally shot himself in the foot by insisting that no, his minecraft oc could Never lose in a fight even if it’s off screen. he Assumed that nobody else had more than one life because Everybody had one life where he came from. that means he shot tubbo, his ally, thinking he would die forever. that means he shot into the crowd of people thinking any of them could die forever (including niki, who cc!techno specifically called out as an ally), he Deliberately abandoned wilbur and tommy at the festival (in those words) thinking they could die forever. this doesn’t make his actions during the red festival more sympathetic, it actively makes it worse.

- technoblade himself seems Unaware of that last point. the point of having techno only be on one life is that it’s meant to be Tragic. technoblade is supposed to be More Vulnerable, More Human, More Afraid than the people around him realize. the Potential tragedy of techno and tommy’s argument is not “you could have saved tubbo but you didn’t” it’s “you Think I could have stopped this by myself but I couldn’t.” but that would require techno to be Vulnerable In The First Place. that would require “technoblade the undying” to be a Facade, and we can’t have that, no No.

and yet technoblade presents this information as if it makes techno’s actions during the red festival more sympathetic anyways. as if he wasn’t in full netherite, withers and rocket launchers on his person, a stack of enderpearls in his inventory, while tubbo and wilbur were fully unarmed and armorless. like he didn’t turn and fire on the crowd and then abandon his teammates.

literally All He Had To Do was say “I was scared,” but he couldn’t have that so it’s “well Actually everyone else was wrong for not protecting Me.” despite the fact that it was supposed to be a Misunderstanding in the first place that techno has Already Realized it was a misunderstanding? wilbur and tommy are both on one life at this point Just Like Techno and wilbur is holding GRAVEL, so techno is Still objectively in the safe position than either of them. and they both thought techno had three lives and techno KNOWS THAT. and yet techno’s takeaway is that they’re in the wrong for not going to save Him? and that’s supposed to justify him apparently killing tubbo thinking tubbo was on a one way express to limbo?

they somehow made him Less sympathetic and More Hypocritical with what was supposed to be a foolproof surefire way to make his character more nuanced.

[hangezoeenthusiast]

God(hcs)

c!multiple x god!reader

notes: the reader will be the god of death to make it a little bit more spicy :). c!punz’s pronouns are he/they, i’m not sure about the others, but i know theirs. also why does ranboo take away my gender? /j

word count: 1,672

warnings: arson, violence, cursing, yelling, mention of death, voices in technos part, spoilers for wilbur if you haven’t watch tommy’s lore stream, revival for wilbur, making a religion, time travel, egg, prison, stealing, anarchy, playful name calling

Sapnap

so obviously y’all would be a great match :)

you have creative mode, so when sap would ask you to give him a lighter and tnt, you would GLADLY give it

also, can we talk about him being a nether hybrid

fire squared

like fires left and right, hide your mom and your children in your house lol /j

but besides the whole arson thing, you favor him above anyone else on the server

like if he asks for diamond blocks, well here’s a whole inventory of it, also, here’s some ancient debris and some netherite

if someone asked, you would probably grant them with poison and curses, just because you can’t be “unloyal” to snapchat 

wouldn’t be lonely anymore

Dreamwastaken

this duo is less chaotic, but chaotic enough where people avoid you

he still asks you for stuff, but most of the time, you don’t give him it because he annoys you too much about giving stuff

“hey y/n/n, can i pretty please get some emerald blocks.”

“nope bitch, get it yourself.”

but sometimes, you grant him some op shit, when it’s your good day

“because i’m being nice, here’s some diamond, now, don’t ask me again you little piss baby.”

“shut your trap y/n.”

“or what homeless teletubby, what are you going to do to a god like me?”

“you hang out with technoblade to much.”

Georgenotfound

maybe the least chaotic duo

you guys keep on relaxing and relaxing until the point where you don’t do anything

he barely asks you for anything, but only when it’s really really important, like a house or build

especially when he was building his little cottagecore house, he needed your godly presence to help

“y/n, what should the roof be made of?”

“i suggest brick, it makes it more aestheticy if that makes any sense.”

also barely any drama or tea with you guys

never arguing and never betraying each other is a must

Tubbo

also another least chaotic duo

literally help him with his bee farm, he will (platonically) love you forever

gotta be close to ranboo, that’s the rule

gives him SO much stuff, he’s a precious boi 🙄

also gotta be close to tommy, but not as much unfortunately

you help him pick out things for builds, like what material clashes with another, etc

“do you think that the wool and the netherite blocks look good together y/n?”

“nah, what i suggest is the wool with the gold, it looks perfect.”

sometiems, gotta put him in check because he gets a little ego built up

you definitely yank his horn a little too hard because of your IMMENSE STRENGTH

“OW, WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT Y/N.”

“calm down sunny, you were just getting a bit over your head a little.”

Tommyinnit

chaotic duo like sapnap

snaps at anyone who annoys you and vice versa

you give him EVERYTHING, obviously except op and creative

he tries to persuade you to do something, but dreamxd wouldn’t allow it, since he is the main boss

“come on y/n, give me op.”

“no tommy, xd will kick my ass.”

“pweaseee.”

“no.”

you would DEFINITELY help him with the Big Innit Hotel, making the whole layout and color palette.

both of you have an intense hatred for ranboo, since he “stole” tubbo away from tommy

Ranboo

least involved in everything

just stay in the tundra and drink some tea, and you’re good for all of your life

helps him get netherite all the time so your boii can get the good stuff 😬

when he mines to get diamonds, he literally prays to you

“y/n, if you’re listening, please give me a 6 vein, i desperately need it for my collection of diamond blocks.”

and THERE IT IS

more than a 6 vein actually, a 12 vein

guess he needs to pray to you more

daily tea sessions, to talk about the good stuff, and NO, and i repeat NO skipping

threatening to flick water on him check ✅

Wilbur Soot

literally you spoil him

not to be angsty, but when he died and lost his last canon life, you revived him instead of Dream

now he’s practically at your knees

like he’s thinks that he owes you, but actually that’s the opposite

he was revived because you were lonely, and wanted your best friend back :(

prays to you when he goes to bed

“hey y/n, hope you’re having a great day, (platonically) love you.”

“love you too mortal.”

sometimes, to be at the peak of godness, you shower upon wilbur as gold to symbolize blessings, like zeus did before

“omg y/n, what are you doing?”

“i’m trying to bless you, shut up bitch.”

just saying, he would make a religion about you :/

Karl Jacobs

omg don’t get me started on this

first, you wouldn’t codone him going back in time

he would definitely forget your name a lot, so that’s why you hated it

“hey karl, how are you doing?”

“i’m sorry, but do i know you?”

ANGST IS TOO MUCH FOR ME

you were definitely the one to push him towards sapnap and quackity

this is also another spoiled boi

give him the entire world while you’re at it pwease

he wants a few diamonds, nope, give him a chest full of them

Quackity

why are there so much chaotic duos in here?

literally chaos times infinity

energy to the max

literally, did you take an energy drink

grants him every wish he can randomly think off

“can i get a bucket with lava and a fish in it?”

“weird choice, but ok man.”

gotta be close to sap and karl or he isn’t your friend anymore /j

helps with las nevadas a lot, and definitely tries to rig the machines so you get money

“hey big q, i got 10,000 dollars.”

“that’s impossible... y/n, did you cheat?”

“nooo 😊”

help him preen his wings, and he goes “I LOVE YOU, MWAH MWAH.” obviously in his mind 🙄

Awesamdude

definitely helps him maintain the prison

you both love setting up red stone contraptions and pistons and all that giz

“hey sam, do you know where the redstone torches are?”

“yeah, there behind the pistons in the back.”

also you helped build the prison, since he could do that by himself

“are you sure that lava wall will work y/n, your calculations seem inaccurate.”

“i’m sure sam, this will add some more security to this goddamn server.”

nerd squared lol

BadBoyHalo

wouldn’t condone the egg

you warned him multiple times to get away from its grasp, but most of the times he’ll decline

“i won’t y/n, the egg is the future.”

he still, even after all the advancements, even after everything, he tries to ask you to join the eggpire

“come on y/n, you’ll like being with us.”

“i don’t wanna be on a stupid egg side, like let me crack the egg, i wanna eat it and turn it into a omelette.”

he doesn’t like that joke :(

but before he discovered the egg, both of you were joint at the hip

sight seeing was a must

languages being thrown around everywhere, since you were the little language muffin

Punz

steals stuff from everyone

hide your stuff, because the punzo-y/n team is unstoppable

definitely they can be really stubborn and indecisive

like one day, he will be like, “i need gold blocks.” and the next, “nevermind, i need netherite actually.”

like hon, stop switching

also anarchy buddies

burning down forests and buildings are your guys’s specialty

when you give him gold when they doesn’t ask, his heart goes brrr and his brain goes, “pog pog, they’re so cool, lets hug them.”

Technoblade

now this is the most deadly duo in the entire Dream Smp

better not piss you guys off 😐

he’s the Blood God, and you’re the God/Goddess/God being of Death

so if some occasion where you need to battle someone, like Techno’s enemies, *clears throat and murmurs Quackity*, you will obviously back your boy up :)

help him with enchanting and potions and he’s set for life

also you got have to be close to the great Philza Minecraft since him and Techno are buddy buddy

anarchy squared

helps with the voices since you have some of your own

“so what you’re saying is that i need to pay attention to them?”

“yeah, when i first learned that the voices were in my head, i tried to ignore them, but that sucked. so what i did was try to distract myself with various tasks, and that sucked.”

“so what do i do, you’re saying that i should listen to them, but how do i do that when they literally shout at me.”

“just embrace it, obviously when they do their little chant of blood for the blood god, you have to ignore them.”

“you suck at advice.”

Philza Minecraft

so since both of you resemble death, him being the Angel of Death and you being the God/Goddess/God being of Death, y’all are fucking best friends, platonic soulmates if you will

death squared

watch out, because if you piss them off, prepare to d-

gotta be close to Ranboo and Techno, and obviously others who he platonically likes

he doesn’t need to ask you for stuff, he’s the fricking Angel of Death, but he will ask you to preen his wings :D

“ow, not there y/n.”

“oh shut up grandpa, let me do it.”

“I’M NOT OLD DUMBASS.”

Dream XD

two gods at once, damn there is so much chaos

left and right, you guys are noticed by everyone, like purrrr

y’all would be in some fancy shit, to show your power

you would get jealous of him hanging out with george

“why are you jealous y/n?”

“you’re hanging out with george to much, hang out with me please :(.”

gifts are a must, even though both of you have access to creative

[marechaussee-phantom]

so

dream smp mean girls au

----------------------------------

sapnap: so, if you’re from l’manberg, why do you sound british?

tommy: ...what?

george: oh my XD, sapnap. you can’t just ask people why they sound british.

----------------------------------

techno: raise your hand if you have ever been personally victimized by dreamwastaken.

tommy: *winces*

ranboo: that one? that’s georgenotfound. he’s totally rich cause he runs a whole kingdom with sapnap and karl.

tubbo: george is nowhere and everywhere at the same time. when you need him, he’s fast asleep. when you don’t, he’s right there.

ranboo: that’s why he wears those clout goggles. hiding the fact that his eyes are always closed

tubbo: and the green bastard there? that’s dream. don’t get me wrong, he may seem like a typical server admin, but he’s way, WAY more than that.

ranboo: he’s the number one, the speedrunner. the other two are the hunters.

----------------------------------

tubbo: four for you, karl jacobs! you go, karl jacobs! and none for georgenotfound, bye

-----------------------------------

george: dream, hang on. you're wearing all green. it's monday.

dream: so?

sapnap: so that's against the rules and you can't sit with us.

dream: what? since when? whatever. those rules aren't real.

sapnap: *offended gasp* they were real that day I wore a hoodie karl lent to me!

dream: it was because that hoodie was karl’s, not yours!

george: YOU CAN'T SIT WITH US!

-----------------------------------

george: that is so pogchamp!

dream: george, stop trying to make pogchamp happen! it’s not going to happen!

---------------------------------

grian: i wish we could just build stuff and have fun, no wars or fighting or anything like that-

ranboo: he’s not even whitelisted here!

techno: are you even whitelisted on this server?

grian: ha, no, just wanted to create a little chaos

techno: *sighs*

dream: WAIT HOW’D HE GET ON

---------------------------------

tommy: dream... how do I begin to explain dream?

connor: dream is flawless.

quackity: he has ten stacks of diamonds and a super OP netherite sword.

skeppy: I hear he does minecraft... in florida.

niki: one time, he met captainsparklez on a plane. and he told him he was cool.

antfrost: one time I helped beat him in manhunt... it was awesome.

----------------------------------

dream: get in loser, we’re going mining!

SCC Video Gaming Headcanons!

All three:   -They’re ALL gamers.  Every single one.  It’s kind of hard not to be when you live in a city where everything IS video games!

-Animal Crossing!  They've all got a town, with K_K as the mayor / island rep.  He genuinely enjoys having fun with all his islanders, even if those interactions are a little shallow, and visiting other islands (he is low-key looking for cuter islanders, though he'd never say it out loud because he doesn't want his current ones to feel bad).  Cap'n is addicted to making patterns and terraforming/redecorating the island; everything's completely different from week to week.  Sweet's trying desperately to complete the museum, and tends to scream and panic at the end of every month if there's any bugs/fish they missed!  And of course, every Saturday night they all make time to see KK Slider perform!

-Of course, RHYTHM GAMES!!  Sweet's a master at Guitar/DJ Hero and Beatsaber, Cap'n gets more into Rhythm Heaven or Parappa, and K_K can and will hit every single step in DDR on the highest difficulty.  All three also totally play Band Hero together, with Sweet on the guitar, K_K on the drums, and Cap'n on the mic.

-They legitimately use Smash Bros to settle arguments sometimes.  All three fight over who gets to be R.O.B., though K_K usually concedes first and goes for Kirby instead.

-They've also all got a soft spot for Mega Man, especially the Classic series.  Sweet in particular cheers whenever the Yellow Devil shows up (and then dies to them immediately).

Sweet: -Has their own Minecraft server, where they build a ton of complex structures and redstone mechanisms.  K_K and Cap'n are allowed on only if they promise not to grief their builds.  (Cap'n usually breaks that promise and gets kicked.  He is NOT to be trusted with lava.)

-Also really into Moonbase Alpha, unironically.  Nothing frustrates him more than trying to actually maintain his base while everyone else is spamming "John Madden" or "aeiou" (Though, he did indeed sample the chat spam for a song once...)

-Nintendogs.  He's got three chihuahuas -- Sir Snuggles, Fluffy the Destroyer, and Marigold -- and GOD HELP YOU if you slight them in any way, or interrupt him in the middle of their thrice-daily walkies.

-He's also got an old Neopets account, but only logs in like once a year to check on things.  He keeps meaning to get back into it, but it just never happens...

-Likes retro gaming in general, pulling out stuff that the other two have never even heard of!  Sadly, he doesn't quite have the reflexes they demand of him, but he still has fun.

-Is still trying to beat the original Legend of Zelda on his own, without looking up a guide/walkthrough.  Cap'n keeps dropping hints to play the whistle at a certain pond, but Sweet's just too stubborn to listen to him...

Cap'n: -Dating sims and visual novels, where he makes sure to play every single route.  Come on, you KNOW that's where he got all his knowledge of how dating works!

-Also loves JRPGs, and may or may not get fashion ideas from them.

-Really, REALLY gets into the Sims, where he's got entire neighborhoods of Sims whose lives and relationships he controls like a soap opera (they're constantly kissing).  Of course, he's also got one house reserved for three Sims designed after him and his bandmates, who he's sure to take extra special care of.  (They kiss too, but not because Cap makes them...)

-Will ALWAYS be in the final 10 when he plays Tetris 99.  He just...gets really into the zone, and is able to keep the board clear no matter how fast things get.

-Also does surprisingly well with FPSes?  Only plays the campaigns, though, or with K_K on co-op -- he's too shy to attempt playing online with people who might recognize him.

-Has a secret Let's Play channel that NO ONE is allowed to know about, not even Sweet or K_K!  He's terrified of anyone recognizing him, so he refuses to go on camera, and even changes his voice!  (yoinked this one from @andersam5 !)

-(Overall hides his gaming habit in general, outside of his bandmates, afraid of being labelled a nerd.)

K_K: -All of them.  No, seriously, they love video games the most out of the three, which if you've read this far is saying a lot!

-REALLY into Pokemon, became the champion in every single entry at least once and even plays competitively to a degree!  Still hasn't completed the Pokedex, though.

-Also, appropriately enough, their attention span makes WarioWare games a breeze for them!

-Absolutely ADORES racing games, of course, and especially likes the more realistic ones like Gran Turismo and Forza, that let him tune up real cars and pretend to be them.  He'll also play Mario Kart, though there's a house rule in place that if Sweet or Cap'n get a blue shell K_K HAS to just accept it and let them win for once (it's the only break the two of them ever really get!)

-They can play through Silent Hill without even flinching.

-Super into those old mascot platformers like Sonic and Crash Bandicoot and Spyro and Banjo-Kazooie and, of course, Kirby.  Knows absolutely every bit of obscure Kirby lore and will infodump if you let them.

-Actually plays bullet hells like Touhou pretty well, though not GREAT.  It’s their worst genre. 

-Enjoys traditional games and board games as well, and has a whole shelf of them in the shop.  Most are missing pieces, since they were all dug out of the trash, but K_K improvises new ones, or just discards the rules entirely, inventing their own games with the pieces they have!

Modern day pokemon tiktok/YouTube. Ooo I have a couple of ideas, I feel like Steven would have a quick 5 minute educational channel. Teaching people about different evolution stones, star pieces, and the like. Then on Tiktok he gushes about his Pokémon and how to properly care for them. Like cleaning off rust and dirt.

Cynthia would absolutely have a history channel on YouTube, while having tiktoks of her training and her favorite places to get snacks, like a local ice cream parlor for example. There’s been a few times where her Togekiss has photo bombed her.

I adore the idea of Leon streaming Minecraft! (fun fact! His anime va streams on Twitch! I watch his streams sometimes. His name is CyYu, if people would like the name, tiktok account is the same name.) Sometimes Leon brings Hop and his friends into a co-op server they have. In the background of his camera you’ll see his Pokémon come on and off screen. Usually Dragapult is the main offender, due to his dreepy’s. They like to cuddle with Leon when he games.

Piers I think, would show off small samples of his to be released songs on his tiktok. While also recording Marnie’s progress as a gym leader. Sometimes he’ll show off his guitar and teach people about the hand positions and what note goes with it.

OH!! Fantastic idea that my brain came up with. Diantha has a behind the scenes of her plays and movies tiktok. Sometimes you’ll see Brycen with her, excitedly talking about how their play together went. She’d also do photoshoots of not only herself but also close friends and their pokemon. Sometimes fans, when she’s in the mood.

Red would have a tiktok that’s exclusively about his Pokémon. Sometimes, just to be sneaky, he’ll say something in one of the videos. He mostly records his Pikachu playing with his other Pokémon, or when it’s being silly. Feeding time with his Pokémon are a big hit on tiktok.

Blue, on the the other hand. Would talk about his day and all the battles he had. Red shows up in a decent amount of them. Jshdhd Blue would talk about how he won against Red in a training battle when Red goes “You lost. Horribly.” And the video cuts off with Blue Turing around yelling “HEY-”.

Last but not least Lance. He strikes me as a teaches about dragon type Pokémon kinda guy. He shows spots in Kanto and Johto where you can find some in the wild (he shows them in person in the videos). He also shows off calming spots around the two regions where it’s a nice spot to rest and relax.

Woah good lord, I wrote a lot for them. I love hearing other people’s thoughts about things like this! It’s fun to bounce ideas off of each other. - Rem

I have more!!

Professor Sycamore would post really wholesome content but everyone would just thirst for him and make thirst traps

Professor Kukui would probably post those kinds of videos where people go out in the wild catching a wild animal and then showing it off and if it's poisonous let it bite them.

Wallace posts outfits and makeup tutorials as well as when he's hanging out with Steven
