hey I've been listening to the yard for about a year and a half and I want to get more into it ifywim do I just start watching old vods to catch up or is there any content u can recommend as a baseline must-watch
this is by no means a comprehensive list because i've only really been watching the yard since dec 2022 and my 2021 stint in lud viewing was brief and casual (didn't know what i had) but it is a fucking long list so i'll keep it under the cut. included stuff that maybe i wouldn't classify as a must watch but i wanted to include it so you can pick and choose what interests you
PODCASTS - I know for a fact there are other podcast appearances out there that I don't know of but here are a few:
the yard x wine about it - it's just the four of them and qt which means good times! this is an essential imo
there are a few eps of fear& that they appear on! specifically rec the ep with nick and aiden and the ep with ludwig and aiden. there are also a few eps with ludwig and slime (not at the same time) if you're interested in those
i've watched aiden on three different interview podcasts all are worth a watch to me: karat interview, across the bar, and good griefed (audio a little scuffed on this one but it's cute)
fucking loved nick's ep of across the bar because his outlook on creativity is super relatable to me. he also did something with safety third that i've been meaning to watch but haven't yet!
VIDEOS AND STREAMS - there's a lot here but i'll try to describe what's what
mogul money ft the yard - this is the full vod, there's also a cut down video. extremely fun watch
nick was also on mogul money live (first game specifically) and he and aiden appear in the bts video a little bit
qt posted vlogs from italy! they're all fun watches and there's some good moments. one, two, three, four
qt and aiden halloween gingerbread house video. ludwig and aiden kiss in this one. i think the full vod is in god's hands unfortunately
qt and aiden make shit in an ezbake oven and make the guys eat it. fun little video. idk if the vod is out there somewhere or not
there's a cut down version of this too but the full stream of qt having all the guys do a gingerbread house competition is very peak
lud did a shit load of taste test videos with the guys for a slim jim sponsor. this might not be all of them but here are the ones i cold find off rip (fruit, cheese, chocolate, water, steak)
ludwig has done a shitload of ylyl streams with slime that you can find and honestly i have a horrible mediashare allergy so i haven't watched a lot of them but i have watched the one they did with aiden and the one with everyone but idk where the full vod is for the latter
from ludwig's fortnite mondays, there was a week where slime and nick played with jerma and sapnap. idk if any of the others posted the vod but here's sapnap's
the subathon has a shitload of stuff that i can't even begin to link but if you want the experience of the dcom series without subbing to tier 2 they watched the truman show starting about an hour thirty into this vod, tho it takes a hot minute to get everything lined up with the time stamps
halloween po unboxing where them + qt dress up as characters from scooby doo. nick looks frankly obscene as velma this is a great vod
how many flashlights does it take to cook an egg is exactly what it sounds like. it's lud slime and nick ft a little bit of yingo
they play the family feud game together in these two vods: just them and against miz/otk (can't stand miz but it was still good)
RECENT STUFF - aka stuff you probably know about or have seen because you've been around a year and a half but i figured i'd include them anyway since they happened off the pod
two months ago they all played fortnite on lud's stream and it was awesome
both the show matches of the ludwig tarik invitationals are worth watching if you're into valo! the first one is team mogul v otv and they're split up in the second. if the timestamps are broken it's 2h30 in both vods
the rivals 2 tournament is fun! i don't understand shit about fighting games but i love to see the boys play
cdawgva ski vod with lud and aiden from the japan trip! there's also a cut down version of youtube but i found it a fun watch
recency bias alert: they all played in creator dodgeball
the qt and aiden winter cocktail tierlist stream was so good like genuinely a stream of all time to me. ludwig hangs around for parts of it
the yard doing the dougdoug fast food challenge is a MUST WATCH! they celebrate and they suffer what could be more beautiful
otv's fear pong video with them is so fucking good. SO GOOD!
and finally i guess i should mention beerio because it just happened LOL

My own Voices designs!! I wanted each of them to have their own distinct color and article of clothing, which was inspired by @bubblybloob’s designs for them. Individual notes below the cut:
Broken: I wanted his outfit to look haggered and worn. At first I was thinking to have his outfit be like a medieval prisoner’s, but I also added elements of friar robes to go along with Tower’s offer of making us a priest for her. I also made his beak chipped and made it that he doesn’t have the lower set of feathers on his wings (Idk what they’re called- primaries and secondaries I think?)
Cheated: I was stuck on Cheated for so long lol I had no idea what I wanted to do for him. I asked a friend for some medieval outfit ideas and eventually he came up with an executioner and I loved it. He is bitter about his death to Razor. He wants to find a way to kill her himself and will do anything to make sure, even consistently sacrificing LQ in order to get more Voices and become more powerful. And there’s the obvious blade theme going on. I’m pretty sure I had a third reason for it that I forgot too 💀 Now that I’m thinking about it, the Razor route actually kinda mirrors the Witch route, but the roles are swapped…
Cold: I wanted him to wear something an assassin would wear, so I just gave him a cloak lol. I thought that would be a little boring, so I made the front of it look like a scarf. Because…….. he’s Cold.
Contrarian: The obvious thing to do was make him a jester, so I did. The top half of his collar and the color are inspired by Sophist because the Party Crashers brainrot never leaves (I’m watching the Vernias Subathon as I’m writing this post) and if you’ve seen even one of his videos- especially a Mario Party one, you’ll know that he and Contrarian have basically the same personality.
Hero: He’s the main guy, and obviously a hero, so I gave him a knight helmet and cape. The color of the helmet feather changes based on what your Chapter II is (ex. his feather will be magenta during Damsel to match Smitten, and it will stay magenta during Burned Grey. Honestly I may change this lmao) and it’s black in the endgame sequence. He also shifts his cape so that the clasp is in the center during the endgame.
Hunted: Hunted has a torn and tattered vest that’s green to help with camouflage. He and Paranoid have the largest eyes, both because they are always on the lookout for a threat, but it’s more obvious for him and his prey nature. He’s the best flier of all the voices- in fact, he honestly might be the only one who can fly.
Opportunist: Sleazy loser car salesman. He’s the most put together (physically) of them all, and uses this clean look to make himself look “professional” so he can weasel his way out of a sticky situation. I might change his yellow to something less bright, I’m not sure if I like it. I just wanted to make sure his color was distinct enough from Hero’s and Skeptic’s.
Paranoid: His hat and shoulder cape are that of a plague doctor’s, since he single-handedly keeps you alive during Nightmare, and even when Hero takes over the Heart Lungs Liver Nerves™ it’s still Paranoid who’s calling the shots that he thinks are the best. He and Hunted have the best self-preservation skills and best survival instincts.
Skeptic: Honestly Skeptic’s personality was hard for me to identify when I first met him, but I view him as someone who’s skepticism comes from a place of curiosity and an itch to learn as much as he can before coming to a definite conclusion. So I gave him a stereotypical detective cape
Smitten: He’s a bard serenading his beloved Princess! His vibrant magenta outfit represents his love for the darling Damsel <3 His outfit was pretty straightforward lmao. Also, his and Opportunist’s chest feathers are meant to resemble an ascot.
Stubborn: Originally I wanted to make him look like a gladiator, but I didn’t want to give him armor so that Hero would feel more distinct from the others. Plus, he just wants an all out brawl where you and your opponent are even, and if he doesn’t believe in traps, I don’t think he’d believe in armor. Because of that, he doesn’t care too much about clothing. A simple sash will do- a red one so that the bloodstains will blend in. He has a scar over his chest and his eye he gained from the fight with the Princess in Chapter I.

okay so with all the hermitcraft muppet stuff… i’m thinking… hermitcraft The Muppets (2011) au… it works beautifully hear me out…
y/n is an autistic person who is OBSESSED with hermitcraft. however by this point, hermitcraft has been disbanded for years. they visit the season 9 world - now under the ownership of some corporation - and accidentally overhear evil xisuma’s plans to purchase the original hermitcraft worlds and destroy them, and the hermits would be unable to stop him, unless they buy the world first for an even higher amount of money than ex is offering. y/n refuses to let this happen and tracks down xisuma, explaining the situation. xisuma doesn’t want to have all the things he worked on with his friends destroyed, so decides, in order to raise the money needed to stop ex, all the hermits must reunite and hold a twitch subathon.
starting with joe hills, y/n and xisuma track down the hermits and ask them to join, via montage. they’ve all moved on and have new jobs. hypno is doing some modded stuff, tango is an overworked game dev, doc is a tomato farmer, gem is a serial killer, mumbo is biking around europe, grian is procrastinating, cleo is a fashion director, zedaph is a gameshow host, etc etc. they all agree to help, with varying degrees of hesitance or eagerness
finally, they track down etho. he is now working for a big name company designing redstone machines full time. despite their best efforts, etho refuses to help, satisfied with his current job and lacking any motivation for hermitcraft projects. everyone is discouraged with etho not joining the project, especially bdubs. however gem calls etho washed up and then etho suddenly decides to join them to prove his worthiness
they have a day to try and build as many minigames and cool builds as possible. several “celebrity guests” show up for the event, including scott and martyn, and wilbur soot, because he’s enamoured with grian. the stream starts, and they try to do competitions and play games, however, the helsmits are there and are trying to sabotage the event. y/n has been questioning this entire time what type of player they are - redstoner, builder, etc - failing to succeed in any of those categories, however, after a heartful talk with joe hills, accepts that there are talents not recognised by the minecraft community at large but are still admirable, and they do a dramatic poetry reading together.
in the end, evil xisuma, refusing to accept defeat, cuts out the power to stop the stream 23 hours and 59 minutes in - a minute short of the time goal. the hermits are at first devastated but then remember that as with any stream like this, they already reached the monetary goal 5 minutes in. in fact, they reached double the goal the moment grian talked, and five times the goal the second etho was in frame. zedaph puts on his wormman costume and talks to ex, who reveals he has only been so focused on destroying hermitcraft because it made him sad to see the hermits celebrated but his favourite hermit of all - wormman - ignored. wormman explains that its okay, because of his nature of being a superhero, he needs to stay out of the limelight to best protect his identity, but he appreciates ex’s dedication to him. the other helsmits run away, plotting their revenge. a new season of hermitcraft is announced, and y/n is unanimously voted to be part of it. gem kills someone. scar proposes to grian. the crowd goes wild. everyone claps. the shot zooms out, revealing the entire thing to have been playing on a computer monitor. cut to zloyxp, pixlriffs, and lyarrah sitting in front of it, furiously taking notes for the first recap in many years

OK SO! the tommyinnit 101. technically this isn't really tied to an smp though.
so first we must start at the very beginning. the dream smp. in late 2020-early 2021, the dream smp was at the height of its popularity, and tommyinnit played one of its most prominent characters (tommy, henceforth referred to as c!tommy). now the thing about c!tommy is that both he and cc!tommy (idk if i've talked about the c! vs cc! divide before but that is its own 101) were under 18 at the time, and therefore if you shipped his character with anyone about 70% of the fandom would tear you apart.
honestly dsmp isn't too relevant here, though, except to introduce tommy and tubbo. you see, in a world of straight men using their little block guys to flirt with one another, tommy was Very vocal about loving women. being Straight was part of his Bit in the same way that being Annoying and playing the able sisters music from animal crossing was.
anyways in late 2022 he uploaded a vlog of him and tubbo getting married, tubbo mostly against his will. they pulled out all the stops- got an ordained minister (their friend scott, who you may recognize from the life series 101s) to do a little ceremony, had a lot of their friends acting as different members of the wedding party, even signed and filed real paperwork!
yep. that's right. they signed legal fucking paperwork. i've heard that tubbo didn't even know it was a marriage certificate, he thought it was a waiver for being in the video or smth. that's right, known straight man tommyinnit tricked his best friend into getting Real Life Legally Married to him, presumably just for shits and giggles.
This fact went unnoticed until mid-late 2023. tubbo was playing on the QSMP with some other people (i know FitMC, not sure who else), and was joking about going to Vegas and getting married to Fit. and then tubbo realized he was still married to tommy.
also, around that time, tommy wrote and published (to wattpad) a rpf crack fic called Tommy x Tubbo Love Triangle, where tommy leaves his Real Life Girlfriend molly for tubbo (molly dies directly afterwards because it was so romantic) and then he and tubbo kiss without tongue. tubbo was not consulted during the production of this fanfiction.
after learning about the marriage, tubbo started working to get a Real Life Divorce from his Real Life Friend Tom. tommy refused to sign the paperwork. if any of this ever goes to court tubbo fully intends to livestream the whole thing.
around 2 months ago, tommy did a parody of "I'm Just Ken" called "I'm Just Tom," in which he begs tubbo not to divorce him. it must be seen to be believed. idk if the link will work in an ask but i need you to see it https://youtu.be/laAPXcxjDlI?si=wPQM3ZJHBIv11Cfr
also if you're wondering how molly, tommy's Real Life Girlfriend, feels about all of this? she thinks it's hilarious. for the past month or two-ish (?), tommy's been doing a stand-up comedy tour in america (because they are all british), and at the same time tubbo's been doing a subathon (aka tubbathon bc it's tubbo) (a subathon is a twitch stream with a timer on it. the stream ends when the timer finishes out, and whenever someone subscribes to the streamer's channel more time is added) (the tubbathon is still going btw and isn't slowing down anytime soon). at one point molly came onto the tubbathon, and tubbo bought her a new phone bc hers was shit. (directly afterwards tommy posted a vlog about it, saying he felt like he was being cucked by his gay husband)
fans have dubbed these three the nightmare polycule, and it's not hard to see why.
and then, finally, this morning (last night in england time), tommy and tubbo were on a phone call. tubbo (gay) encouraged tommy to "say the f slur!" and tommy said, and i quote, "I'm bicurious, so I guess I could say like a fifth of it. [Tochat] Hear that, ya -ggots?"
i needed to tell you all of this so that you would understand the full insanity of all of this. there are some bits that don't really translate unless you were a dsmp fan in the 2020-2021 era, but i need you to see the ongoing insanity this man creates. he had been planning to use that joke for his live comedy show
ok uh
wow
i some pointers on his singing voice (a bit too belty there, that'll damage the throat later, some vowels need rounding)
hilarious that he rhymed Tom with arm
reading this was like a fever dream
molly is me tbh this is the most hilarious drama i have ever read
his comedic timing is beautiful
what the fuck

tubbo’s struggled a lot with internalized ableism because of his experiences in school. he’s gotten better recently especially with his dyslexia, but he’s still very scared of the idea of being diagnosed with anything else. multiple friends of his have told him he has textbook traits of autism and ocd and every time he shuts down the conversation.
I definitely think school plays a part in it, but also just his own ideas of what it means to be ND. He has very specific ideas of what something means. I know he’s mentioned before that because he went to a special-needs school. There were some kids that were very heavily setback or had very intense Neuro divergent disorders.  I think in his mind, because he doesn’t act like those kids he won’t have a disorder like them. As an example, maybe one of the kids had debilitating autism and weren’t able to function without somebody with them, because he doesn’t act like that he doesn’t see why he would have autism.
He has a very categorical mindset, and once something fits into that mindset it’s hard to get it out. Having a specific understanding of what mental disorders are, is what makes it hard for him to understand that he could be diagnosed with them as well. Because he doesn’t experience anxiety in the same way that somebody who is diagnosed with an anxiety disorder does, he doesn’t have anxiety. Because he doesn’t experience depression, or the regular depressive episodes that somebody with diagnosed depression does, he doesn’t have depression.  Think about when Krow had to explain he had a panic attack before the subathon. When his heart was racing, and he found it hard to breathe. He didn’t think it was a panic attack because he wasn’t experiencing physical symptoms that he categorized as a panic attack even though he experienced a panic attack.
I definitely think his idea of having a disorder would set him back, and make him unable to do certain things because people in his school, and possibly his life, have disorders that are disabling to them. ďżźďżź ďżź he also mentioned that he would use it as a crutch, and excuse not to do some thing as opposed to ďżź using it as a reason, why something is hard. He mentioned before how he stopped trying to read because of his dyslexia after he was diagnosed. ďżź
Overall, I think it’s a bad mix of the way that he thinks in general, the way that people treated him just for having dyslexia, and the way that he sees how the world views people with neurological  disorders.  I think his aversion to getting a diagnosis or talking about the diagnosis also stems from the fact that people tend to push for him to get a diagnosis which is fairly invasive, especially coming from chat.

OKAY yeah so like for a vlog Tommy thought it would be funny if he got married to his best friend Tubbo and got one of his other friends to afficiate (Is that what it’s called?) the wedding, said friend being an ordained minister, and Tubbo not knowing that fact until the actual wedding, or even knowing the wedding was going to happen to begin with- (video source)
The video was very silly and Tubbo just kinda forgot about it until in a stream I think he made a joke about having a Vegas wedding and it dawned on him the Wedding was actually legit. (Video source)
Then Tubbo proceeded to try to make Tommy sign divorce papers and threatening to sue him but Tommy didn’t want to because he thought the whole thing was hilarious (this is all still very much like lighthearted and for fun nobody’s like genuinely upset) also yes throughout the whole thing Tommy has a girlfriend and her name is Molly, (video source)
I actually don’t know about the fanfic thing I heard he like uploaded it to wattpad and it was to convince Tubbo to stay married to him???
Later, Tommy makes a parody music video of the song “I’m just Ken” from the Barbie movie about how much he loves Tubbo and doesn’t want him to divorce him or get sued, Tubbo appeared in the music video absolutely deadpan until the later half of the coordinated dance sequence. (Video source)
Tommy then goes to his comedy tour in America and while at it Tubbo has a twitch subathon and starts hanging out a lot with Molly, at one point finding her at a store and buying her an iPhone since hers screen is broken. Tommy proceeds to joke in his own video that he’s being cucked by his husband (video source)
While still on tour, Tubbo calls him on a stream and tries to get him to say the f slur, telling him he’s giving him the pass, Tommy refuses but shares that he’s bi-curious/a fifth gay and can say a fifth of the slur, and calls him a “got” (he also cannot do math apparently but that’s ok) (can’t find the source but it’s mentioned by them here)
They then got divorced in court for real in another vlog with Molly helping Tubbo and everything went back to normal the end (video source)
This was… a larger mess to explain than I had anticipated. Also I wasn’t even in the fandom for like most of this but the Tommyinnit cultural osmosis is powerful
Lemon I very unfortunately understood 100% of that tommyinnit post and I can try to explain if you'd like
OKAY 😭😭 IF YOU WANNA GO AHEAD THANK YOU LMAO i was so confused. like he got married as a joke ? and then wouldn’t give his husband a divorce? and wrote a fanfic about it????? idk that’s all i understood lol

Ok I am dumb🙈😅
I want to request but idk who it best suits?? Like Sapnap or quackity (I think might work nicely) x streamer reader and they are talking how they got together (classic bf to lovers) but the reason would be so dumb and funny at the same time😅😂 like “yeah we were celebrating and then we kissed so we are together “
Ok if you don’t understand that that’s ok (you don’t have to write it) cuz my brain can’t understand it either 😅😂anyway have a nice day🌸
Yours 🎧anon
getting together with sapnap and quackity on stream
Tumblr media
⋆。˚ summary: chat's used to seeing their favorite streamer/best friend duo on screen, but they're not accustomed to the two of you kissing
⋆。˚ pairings: cc!sapnap x gn!reader, cc!quackity x gn!reader
⋆。˚ warnings: reader uses they/them pronouns, yelling, kissing (obvi)
⋆。˚ note: 🎧anon I am OBSESSED with this idea, I can just imagine these two getting so hyped they forget not to express just how in love with the reader they are!!!
Tumblr media
Sapnap
Sapnap and you always had a tradition of doing a meet up during MCC so you could practice together and rack up those sweet, sweet collab views
MCC was bound to get Sapnap hyped and his excitement was more than infectious, making you louder and louder with every successful practice
luckily enough, the two of you had been put on the same team, meaning your practice would pay off even more
the nonstop training meant Sapnap basically had to host you for the week leading up to the event, offering you his bed while he slept on the couch
finally, it was time to compete
Sapnap and you were both completely focused on the match and could communicate without having mics on, giving you a bit of an advantage, but shhh don’t tell anyone
the last game between your team and victory was dodgebolt and you put all your trust in Sap when you were eliminated halfway through the game
his last shot flew through the air, hit the other player and your screen lit up with a crown and congratulations from your chat
Sapnap was shouting and you were flying out of your seat to wrap him in a hug
before either of you could stop yourselves, Sapnaps was cradling your face and kissing you with way too much passion to just be spur of the moment
chat was lucky enough to see the kiss from both you and Sap’s cams, which were turned off seconds after
P.S. Sapnap didn’t sleep on the couch that night
Quackity
Quackity had been running a massive subathon that lasted the greater part of a week, hosting friends and planning events to gain viewers and subs
you were one of the last people to join his stream, in person, due to your status as his all-time best friend forever
he was completely wired, running off energy drinks and food he had ordered from doordash, so your presence was a breath of fresh air
while he was still glued to his stream, you were able to cook some real food for him, trying to up his energy without making him rely on monster or some other drink chock full of caffeine
but eventually you started to nod off beside him, so while he was still playing a game and talking to chat, you let him know you were going to bed
maybe it was how tired he was, maybe it was the fact that you looked so cute when you were sleepy, but he only leaned over and kissed you, turning back to his screen and saying goodnight
you shuffled out of the room in your tired daze, closing the door behind you, only to realize what happened and throw the door open again
“Did you just kiss me?”
Quackity’s mouth is hanging open as he glances between you and chat, “I don’t know!”
“WHY DID YOU KISS ME?!”
“I DON’T KNOW!!”
while you and Quackity are at a loss for words, his viewers certainly are not
Quackity tries to do damage control by pausing his subathon for the first time all week, but hey, chat got a new streamer power couple by the end of it, so...

are people genuinely upset over ranboo making so much money........like, please consider that those numbers are just based off of total twitch payouts, which for ranboo includes two ENORMOUS charity subathons, plus there's the fact that he used some of that money to entirely pay off his parents' mortgage, it's not like he's just pocketing all that money??? plus the Per Hour figure is solely based the hours spent streaming, which doesn't factor in any of the hours of behind-the-scenes work that ccs do. like yeah, it's crazy people can make such a huge amount just by playing video games, but please realize that even at ranboo's level, it's still not anywhere near being The One Percent.

Alright curious anon here. All this is /dsmp /rp from here on out unless otherwise specified and is refering to characters. If i make any mistakes or am misinformed please let me know! So by the cat was nothing compared to mushroom henry i was meaning more toward the fact that the cow was killed as a punishment for something not worth or ok for it to be killed for at all and the fact that it belonged to tommy, wheareas the cat was killed more to annoy dream and belonged to tommy. (1/?)
alright then another lengthy reply, here i come! /lh /dsmp /rp
Dream also did not seem to mourn the cat much, shrugging it off with a "just more motivation to break out".
it was killed to hurt dream, not to "annoy him". it doesn't matter who it belonged to, c!dream was attached to it and it died, which had an effect on him and also further proved his point about attachments being weakness and caring getting you hurt, and it's still very sad.
you say that it was not ok at all to kill mooshroom henry, but the cat's death wasn't ok either, so i really don't see your point.
again, i disagree it was "nothing compared to" either way. i never meant to compare them in the first place, i was simply talking about the cat and c!dream so i don't see why it is in any way necessary to drag c!tommy and other dead pets into this. /nm
also, it isn't true he didn't mourn it. he is a very reserved person who doesn't show his feelings much, that's true, but the cat death still changed the way he acted afterwards, as well as the attempts he made to prevent it. he didn't "shrug it off", he yelled about it because he was understandably upset.
You mentioned that propganda was used to make dream seem like a tyrant, could you specify a bjt? Cus im a little confused srry /gen. Because the most i can remember from the lmanburg era at least is him being called a b'tch or other similar insults. You also mentioned how trauma responses can be differet which is true! I agree! Do you have any ideas to what caused dream the trauma?
wilbur would continuously make him out to be some sort of oppressive, tyrannical force, in front of his troops - a prime example of this being the lyrics of the l'manberg anthem itself and the l'manberg declaration of independence.
actually! here's a nice thread about l'manberg's establishment complete with links, timestamps and evidence :]
i also said in my previous post what could've possibly caused it, but since the character intentionally hides his emotions from the public, it would be difficult to see how things really affected him - which is why the way his spiral went is the majority of the evidence that would imply it, however it does make sense within the story as well with what i mentioned last time.
I would like to note that for sapnap at least had reason to leave dream. Some examples off the top of my head are dream leading an angry fundy to sapnap's pets on purpose, resulting in some deaths, dream assisting tommy in burning down sapnap's effiel tower where he got engaged to karl, and dream giving tommy either mars or the other fish at the battle of the lake. Idk about george tho other then the whole mexican lmanburg/el rapids thing and decrowning him
c!sapnap was actually at fault for most of this, and it wasn't really ever betrayal on c!dream's part.
c!dream is a mediator and he wants to stop everyone's conflict - c!fundy was angry because of c!sapnap's actions, and hence it made more sense for c!dream to centre him on c!sapnap's animals instead of running around killing everyone's pets (at that time, all c!dream knew was c!sapnap did something really bad and c!fundy wanted beckerson / mars from him, which were also his and c!george's fish).
c!sapnap was an instigator, and in multiple conflicts during the time as well as before he'd align himself against c!dream. he isn't "loyal" per se, he causes chaos and the reason c!dream helped c!tommy was because, c!sapnap, again, killed his pet. the first l'manberg war and then the 16th are signs of the fact that c!dream and c!sapnap were willing to fight together in actual war, but these small conflicts where c!sapnap continuously picked fights weren't about personal loyalty, nor did they seem to affect their relationship at all.
c!george was never really hurt by c!dream either. the dethronement was him very obviously being a guilt-trippy drama queen, but, well, that's just the character. he had stolen the l'mantree while he was supposed to be the diplomatic figure of the greater smp, which is why c!dream was justified in - very politely, may i mention - taking the duties off of him (seeing as he was also trying to keep him safe and c!techno had already assassinated him once).
Im pretty sure i remember cc!sam stating that his character never canonically physically tortured dream during his subathon but take this with a grain of salt as i am looking for the clip currently. So to the best of my knowledge dream did not have a physical contact trigger during tommy's visit which! I rewatched the vod and dream actually was first to hit tommy and i can give you my full writing downs but 10/12 of the phy-
you never finished this point because you had to go do something, but i'll reply to what is here at the moment (i suggest writing these down before sending next time, or even writing them out wholly before sending a single one could help avoid stuff like this).
i am 95% sure that the reason cc!sam stated this was because people were suspicious he had already been doing what c!quackity was doing after - torture within the storyline itself is associated pretty much only with what c!quackity is doing, so that's what he meant, just to clear up confusion - the starvation or terrible conditions haven't been retconned, but it was direct torture (like c!quackity is doing) people were asking him about.
i never said c!dream had a physical contact trigger at all, i don't think he had that, though he probably will after the torture.
huh, ok, i'm gonna have to rewatch then, but i remember c!tommy punching c!dream a lot and him just telling him to stop and only punching back to get him to stop. trigger or not, getting hit isn't very pleasant, if you know what i mean.
You mentioned tommy stealing dream's armor unprovoked. Do you have the vod or a general idea of the time so i can find it? Like before lmanburg after another event so and so because if you do not have it i can find it but any help is appreciated.
i am pretty sure you can find the video on cc!tommy's channel! there are also recaps of the disc war on youtube :]
I wanna talk a little on why the Final Control Room was so messed up. For starters, with the way the room was designed. It was small, and had labeled, empty chests with each person's name on them as a mockery. The next reason is that its bascially a kill box.
It's fairly inescapble with the stairs being ones you have to jump up, slowing anyone who climbs them down. The final reason it is messed up is that it is shown to have caused every person who died in it trauma. With tommy there are several examples, the time he saw it with techno, the way he refuses to go near it, the exposure trauma, etc. Fundy also appears to have trauma, as when the Red Banquet executions began, it can be seen as him being afraid of dying last again.
It can Be thought as tubbo having trauma because he buries most of his issues and pretends to be ok. Moreover this event took at least one of each person's canon lives, making it the most canon lives lost EVER in a dream smp event. (This is not hate on any of the ccs btw i loved this scene and its one of my personal favorites). Plus the fact Eret's betrayal just literally happened, giving at least Tommy and Wilbur canonic trust issues.
i wouldn't call the chests mockery? it was a trap. people had traps on the smp before. it was a trap in the middle of war, supposed to end said war by killing them all at once rather than individually which would be a lot more bloody and difficult.
i agree c!tommy and other people might have post-war trauma, especially if they were young during the time, but i think that's because the final control room was "messed up", moreso because the war itself was. it all happened fairly instantly as well? i don't think c!fundy would be able to realize he was the last one standing within the two second before he wasn't.
it "can be thought" and it can be interpreted like that but besides c!tommy there isn't much evidence for them "all" being traumatized by the final control room. of course betrayal would spark trust issues, i understand that.
The probation was humiliating in my opinion because dream was Sending tommy anatgonizing messages through out the whole meeting, plus he had to write a review of his day every single day, which fundy mocked him for.
i mean, it was definitely a strike to his pride, but he was being extremely uncooperative so i don't really blame the other members of new l'manberg trying to teach him to listen for once? of course i know c!dream was riling him up, and that should definitely be considered. i don't think it would be as humiliating if c!tommy didn't make it, is what i'm saying.
for the tommy being toxic to fundy? At least for the examples you gave, to me personally they come acoross as either in a meta way being the cc's bantering or in canon being the characters having banter. If you can send the post with the clips so i can read the tone better that would be cool but if not i will try and find em.
no, these were all in canon. canon isn't only when c!tommy is being nice, it's also when he's being a jerk. /lh
the first one was him threatening c!fundy about kicking him out of l'manberg and undermining his self-worth, and the second one was him trying to get c!sapnap to vote for them via bullying c!fundy.
i found these from a transcript focusing on c!fundy's character, so i don't know exactly where the first one is from, but the second one i am pretty sure is from when the elections were starting with the whole cabinet battle deal and all of that.
there are other instances, and all of them are canon. his personality was never being nice or compassionate, so i'm not really surprised? he still cares about the people he cares about and is very brave, y'know. but this part of his personality is definitely a valid reason for people to dislike him.
I hope the exam went well :). Hope u have a great day! (Ps i think theres something called a submission box to send in pictures? Am not entirely sure sry)
it would've gone well but my work-speed is a tad too slow for the schooling system (considering i'm three years younger than my classmates,,, probably that's also a factor) so probably not despite the fact i knew everything and would've aced it if i only had more time. i did as well as i could so i'm not worried about it, but thanks!
i think you're thinking submissions. sadly, i tested it and it doesn't work on anons, so idk how you'd solve that, maybe make a burner account?
Curious anon here one point you may wanna include in the redemption essay is that c!tubbo or c!tommy do not necessarily have to forgive him. What's important is that he recognizes what he did was wrong (exile, beating tommy to death, manipulating them both, etc) and does his best to make amends. Hope this helps! Can't wait to see your essay
it's out, idk if you've seen it yet, and i think i included enough of that so hope it's all good! :)
the mcc update video is out if you are an mcc enjoyer. It's very neat, if you wanna check it out
yeah! i am a fellow mcc enjoyer, saw it already, thanks for telling me though, i'm really hype for today.
Allo curious anon here sorry if the lots of asks bother you. I was just curious if i could share an interesting post i saw today about c!dream :0 (not necessarily negative i think? More of a statement of an often-confused canon)
sure thing! i don't know what you mean by often-confused since, the entire fanbase is very confused always, and often selection bias plays into the perception from both sides, but sure :]
you also sent in a thing for the other anon who said they didn't know what c!dream did that bad; pretty sure they couldn't really be alerted since, not sure if they watch my blog that closely, but i'll summarize your points just in case and add some notes;
the repeated blowing up of l'manberg (in my mind that's largely a positive since i,, despise that country, but fair enough), revealed c!ranboo as a traitor (they seem to be friends so i also,, think that might've been planned between him and enderboo), sent ghostbur away (i don't think c!dream knew it was dangerous for him and wanted to actually hurt him, but idk), participated in fighting against c!sapnap when he killed people's pets (that's only negative against c!sapnap and didn't seem to hurt him much at all), and then the whole vault scene where he was allegedly planning to steal people's things (though saying he would & being stopped beforehand and doing it are two different things, frankly).
so i still agree with the other anon that a lot of the hurt he did "to the entire server" (he only negatively interacted with like,, a half of them) is exaggerated both by the characters and the fandom, but i guess that's a consequence of most people seeing him as a threat to everyone's happiness rather than a complex personality.
Also he was aware of the butcher army going to kill techno but only got involved because he saw an opportunity to get a favor. (As he knew in advance due to him telling techno to get a totem, watching from afar instead of interveing or manipulating tubbo out of it)
i don't understand this at all, i'm sorry. how do you know he only helped techno in order to get a favor? last i remember he was only doing it to protect and strengthen his alliance, and techno came up with the whole favor thing entirely on his own. you might've not watched techno's perspective or their prior interactions, idk, but this really is a misinterpretation in my eyes. /nm
sorry if that is overly dream negative i just wanted to let yall know cus you seemed unaware -curious anon
nah dw, i watch the smp and i watched all of these things happen so, wouldn't say unaware, but thanks.

tbh i won't be surprised if ranboo ends up getting called out for how hard he pushes subs. it's sad but i totally see it happening. dude averages 94k subs, yet still asks for them every 5 minutes. stans probably will disagree like crazy but there's definitely a point to be made about it. hell, he even found this zombie mod that basically works as a subathon (+ dono prices for items), even though there's already a mod out there called crowd control that tubbo's played a few times that gives you less financial gain like using channel points to do the same thing (tubbo even asked ranboo why he was going through the trouble of setting this mod up when cc exists). it's only a matter of time imo. and i doubt ranboo would handle it well, if the way he indirected aksel is anything to go by. the whole "guys i only push for subs that are prime so we can take from amazon" doesn't really help justify just how much he pushes it, to the point many donos have said how they wish they could donate more (even when they're broke). the fact so much of his chat are subbed kinda brings about the 'need to sub' plus pushing it so hard with the whole parasocical relationship he has with chat just sounds like a recipe for ranboo to get hate. and aksel did have a point about sub goals being set that probably shouldn't be sub goals (like playing a game etc). not saying it isn't good that he pushes subs, bc get that money(!), but it's especially unnerving to watch, and can kinda make his content difficult to consume when the majority of it is talking to chat (and getting tons of money), and not actual entertainment and jokes.
Hasan also talked about it

I'm probably an exception but i never used to watch Ludwig while he was on twitch but watch him semi regularly on yt. he talked about it in a recent mogul video but when you stream on yt the algorithm promotes your yt videos a lot better so there's potential to expand your audience that way, which is what happened with me i just kept getting recommended Ludwig videos and eventually caved. but trying to find livestreams on yt is a mess and the interface is awful for livestreams. Ludwig's extension is the only thing keeping livestreams watchable for me. So for established streamers, I think yt streaming is definitely viable but you just won't see the same numbers on your livestreams compared to twitch.
i guess that’s fair. like a lot of casual fans didn’t carry over but he was able to replace them with new casual fans. i think for me it’s more than i’m not on youtube very much. like i check it at dinnertime every day so that i have something to watch while i eat and then watch through whatever new uploads there have been over the past day so if someone isn’t live at that point i personally won’t watch it. i used to watch lud pretty casually before he switched (and i watched a ton during the subathon) and have not caught a single stream since. out of all the people i follow that stream on youtube i only really watch techno.
but i do think a lot of it comes down to what you said about the interface. ludwig make his streams watchable by creating an extension that largely turns his streams into twitch streams, an extension that is only available on his channel afaik. they were right to say that twitch is loved for its community aspect in the podcast. ik that’s a big part of why i love it. but i think they’re understating how much people still value that aspect of it. like raids help the platform feel more connected and promote discovery, channel points allow viewers to feel like they’re earning something for being a loyal fan (and let them cash in if they want it), and there are fun features like predictions and polls to keep people engaged. i was talking abt this with qnfpanel the other day and i can’t remember who said it but youtube streaming just feels more “corporate” than twitch streaming. as a viewer i feel more valued and included in a twitch chat than a youtube chat, even though i’m not a particularly active chatter.
idk. i just think it’s interesting to think about. youtube can buy over as many creators as they want. hell, i’ll watch dream if he moves there even though i know it won’t be as enjoyable for me. but the fact of it is that if youtube is going to push these different aspects of their site like streaming and shorts then they need to put more work into them. you can’t throw money at a wall without a plan for improvement and expect to compete with platforms that are largely doing it right already. sure, youtube shouldn’t just steal from twitch but surely there are things they can put their own spin on and ways they can emphasize community on their platform

I feel that the fact ranboo has said he's gonna be doing a charity subathon and literally matching the portion of the subs that goes to twitch with his own money very concerning as well. All of the sites I looked at said "giving away sentimental or expensive possessions" is a warning sign. Like I know that he's been planning on doing more charity streams but the timing and also that fact he probably feels like he doesn't have a right to feel "depressed" when others have it worse than him so he's trying to make up for it by doing a charity stream.
Also he's literally talked so much about how he's buying a shit ton of unhealthy food of amazon. Every stream he says something like "i bought a whole bag of this" or "I bough a kilo of this" and i know this could also be contributed to him not living with his parents anymore but its still kinda concerning as "poor diet changes" is another sign.
