Honestly I think it was for the best that minecraft monday ended. The general atmosphere of both the participants and viewers, whether intentional or not, was pretty toxic. It had a lot of potential and forged many anticipated collabs and even friendships (aka phil, techno, wilbur etc) but the toxicity killed the hype. It's pretty much universally agreed that the best week was the last week when the event got cancelled. When the best week is the week when there wasn't even a tournament you (1/?)

don’t apologise anon, i live for this sorta stuff. but imma be real...i’m probably not the most impartial person when it comes to minecraft monday. i have a lot of nostalgia for it, and tbh it remains my all time favourite minecraft event even today. that’s for three main reasons:

1) the timing and the roster. it happened right after minecraft started getting massive again, and was organised by a dude who (while a dickhead) has a lot of contacts. as a result, the MCM roster was a really weird mashup of creators from dozens of different areas, very few of whom actually knew each other. it was sort of like throwing a ton of comedians who have never met before into a room and telling them to hang out together every week. compare that to MCC; at this point, all the creators mostly know each other and have inside jokes. this makes it a lot more companiable, sure, but in MCM we got to watch them all forge their own inside jokes in real time. seeing everyone go from having no idea who Technoblade was to running from him in terror, everyone’s collective hatred of Find The Button, making fun of Keemstar, Bajan and Jerome in second, Chris beating Techno, Dolan and Grandayy vibing in last place...we really got to watch these guys get to know each other, and that was nice.

plus, the teams were always a surprise: nowadays we’re used to weird crossovers in mcyt, but back then seeing Pewdiepie and James Charlie’s play minecraft together was bloody strange af. remember how weird it was when Pokimane was thrown into the Wilbur Tommy Tubbo dynamic? yeah, that was literally every week of MCM.

2) the vibe. one of the biggest issues with MCM was that it had the format of a Very Serious Competition while having a roster mostly made out of comedians. there was a cash prize, professional commentators, and it was expected to be a serious event similar to its brother, Fortnite Friday. you know that metaphor of shoving a bunch of comedians who’ve never met together in a room and telling them to go wild? now add the fact that the room has Very Serious Rules and a Very Serious Goal, but the comedians are more interested in fucking around with each other and making fun of the dude who runs the room than they are in reaching that goal. so when they broke the game? it was unexpected, and felt like we were breaking the rules, and so it was a lot more funny.

for example, Laake was the main mod for MCM, and in the beginning he was Very Serious. he very rarely spoke in chat, and when he did it was for the progression of the game. over time, though, we got to see him be worn down; the competitors just kept pestering him until he started joking around with them, and eventually his additions in chat were some of the best parts of the event. especially when he made fun of Keem, who was this sort of omniscient figure that hung over everyone and represented the serious event that MCM was supposed to be, but all the competitors just laughed at. compare that again to MCC; all the mods are friends with Scott, who’s a legitimately good guy and very willing for the event to be laid back and chill. as a result, when the mods banter in chat we don’t get that feeling of ‘sticking it to the man’, and we don’t feel like the rules are being bent. that part of the fun is taken away. watching MCM sorta felt like watching the class clowns screw up a big school assembly while the teacher looked away, and that was fantastic

3) bro, mcm was scuffed as hell. i ain’t gonna argue with that; it was poorly made and poorly maintained, run by a narcissist who had no idea how to play the game, and there were some really toxic competitors. but this just added to the charm. go back to the room metaphor; now the comedians in the Very Serious Room have found a ton of loopholes in the room’s Very Serious Rules, and are just exploiting them and laughing about it. hundreds of thousands of people are watching the Very Serious Room, but now all the competitors are stuck underground and can’t actually complete the goal, or some of the competitors have escaped the Room and are sitting on a nearby wall, and seeing it fail so colossally is funny because it’s supposed to be so Serious. it’s like when Techno broke bingo and build mart in MCC, or Dre in the iron doors, but it literally happened every week and felt like some sorta taboo

as for the toxicity, that was definitely an issue ethically, but no one actually ever took it too seriously. every week you watched you didn’t know if it would go smoothly or if it would get hacked halfway through and blown to pieces. you didn’t know if the underdogs would pull through and everyone would be happy, or if it would end with Ninja rage quitting, a6d beefing with Keem on twitter, or XQC telling Techno to suck his “wrinkly, hairy, smelly nutsack”? every week was a surprise, and expanded on the lore, and MCC can’t really compare there

you mentioned the fact that the last week is considered one of the best, and I agree, but consider this; if MCC was hacked and a few of the competitors went to hang out in Hypixel, would it be nearly as memorable? no, because all the players already know each other, and we like the organisers too much to laugh at the fact they messed up bad enough to have their server blown up, and having the server blown up doesn’t feel like something so bizarrely stupid. but in MCM? it was bloody iconic.

if there’s a season 2? it won’t have the same charm. i already know that. but still...i’d like to see them give it a go

tldr; i love MCC but it’s too competent to compare. MCM was a shit show and that was the best part of it. we all hate the gnome

also this is significantly longer than expected, if you made it this far i love you and i’m sorry

I was reading your recent post on the Christmas song and you questioned why other members are able to sing romantic songs together while Vmin can’t. The other members did song covers so it may seem less intentional to be romantic while the Christmas song was made by Taehyung possibly for Jimin to sing together which is very romantic. I think BH supports the producers decision based on the lack of Vmin subunit. I hope they just do a vlive and sing it.

Ok, so I got a looooot of asks on the Christmas song and I will adress the ones I have left all in one go. I also realized my mistake of not mentioning in my post The Vmin Christmas song that I do suspect that the difference between Tae’s song and other romantic collabs between members is likely that he wrote it himself. I talked about this in my original post when he mentioned it the first time, and I thought referencing that post (Big Hit, BTS, Vmin and LGBT) and recomending you all to read it might have been enough. Since I mostly wanted to focus on the new vlive, Taehyung’s feelings and some additional things I didn’t mention last time. I didn’t want to remake the same post too much.

But yes, I agree with you that that is likely the reason why he didn’t get to sing it. But I also think it says a lot that Taehyung brought it up, as we haven’t heard of a case like this before between any other members. Thanks for the ask. :)

On the song : as a vminie I'm upset as I'm sure a lot of us are but I kinda noticed something. Most of the romantic sounding songs between the members come from outside sources. Whether it's the already made english songs or an ost  that doesn't have anything to do with BTS or bh personally. If you get what I mean. This song is written by Taehyung so singing it with a member might have caused the "panic" in the producers that it's too personal to sing 'about' another member. Still fcked up 😒 

I don’t think it caused panic, but they are obviously cautious. They can be careful for many various reasons but as you say it does make a difference that this is a selfwritten song. If the same would happen to other pairs in BTS we might never know, but for now at least we know in regards to Vmin that there are some lines their company (or at least that one producer) are afraid to cross.

It's possible that producer rejected Xmas song bcoz it was written by Tae I mean other pairings did sang together but they were cover songs but this was written by Tae and it was romantic so maybe that's why he rejected tae's song, right? But in the end I've lost the hope/image of bighit being supportive towards LGBT "two men can't sing romantic song" is the most homophobic thing and that shows Bighit is just another selfish Kpop company that don't care bout non straight members if there r any:(

Honestly I think you should be a bit careful, because Big Hit is a company and BTS are “a product they need to sell” being careful might be for BTS own sake more than anything and we have seen the members be careful about LGBT statments as well. There are sadly still a lot of Korea (and the world) that isn’t as open towards LGBT as we would wish. But I really recomend you read my post Big Hit, BTS, Vmin and LGBT because I go into lengths there why simply getting angry at Big Hit and calling them homophobic is a very simple way to adress a complicated issue. Of course it’s still a homophobic act, but there might be reasons behind it that we don’t know. In fact I would like to claim that Big Hit still is one of the most PRO LGBT companies in Korea.

Probably controversial, you can ignore and delete this, its ok: if ji k o ok was the one with the duet, do you think bh would let them release it? Two guys and all?   (Yes I'm still angry about it and no I dont think I could ever let it go, the vlive revived my feelings😭) 

It’s ok to be angry and sad, I am too… Especially since Tae brought it up again and clearly seems to care a lot about it. I have no idea if Big Hit would let another ship release it. I know they have been careful about shipping moments being too much for other ships, so it’s possible it would be the same for all ships. But the fact that it did happen with Vmin still says a lot, so I don’t think it matters that much if it would happen to other ships as well. There can be a lot of reasons why, but Tae told us specifically that the song was too romantic in nature for him and Jimin to sing together. He let us know that himself. So speculating about other ships will always just remain speculation. :P Thanks for the ask and let’s try to support Tae no matter what even if we can still be upset. <3

what are your thoughts on the xmas duet, why did taehyung bring this up again ? I know it's almost xmas but there wasn't really a need to talk abt it again, knowing that he won't propably ever release it 

I think he brought it up again because he cares about it more than he wants to say. I wrote a longer post speculating about it and how I think Taehyung feels and why. The Vmin Christmas song

Again, I also thought it was weird for him to bring it up again despite it being so close to Christmas, and the fact that he despite again stating he will likely not release it did at least to me show how he does like and care about the song. But if he can’t do it the way he wanted to it kind of lost it’s meaning to him.

About tae's vlive and the christmas song just the day after in the muster jimin went to sing next to tae and people think the lyrics was in reference to tae's vlive did you see that ? on twitter: /i/status/1206145252345688064 what do you think ? 

Ah yes, I saw that. The timing of it is interesting, because they usually don’t interact much during Love Maze for obvious reasons. But Jimin went across first to Namjoon but then to Tae and was there for a while. And after they sang those parts he went back. It does look a bit like a statment. But as usual it’s difficult to know anything for sure.

“Whatever others say, let’s not listen. Just let them talk.” It could be about the christmas song, but it could just as easily be about something else. But at least it does seem like Jimin wanted to in some way comfort Tae with those particular words. As just fanservice it doesn’t make sense since they don’t have a part together but simply side by side. Jimin also made sure Tae looked at him and listened right at that part, so yes, he definitely did it on purpose at least.

Thanks for the ask! It’s another perhaps small moment but that really shows off Vmin’s support for each other.

Hi,  (I'm the same person who talked about your analysis) Actually I wanted to know your thoughts and opinion about something that is making me curious,the "Christmas song" that tae produced for both of them to sing together but since BH didn't let him do it,he decided to not release it at all? I've so many questions about this situation? And sorry if you replied to this kinda question already. 

It was such good timing with this ask, because I got it the day BEFORE Tae’s vlive. Did you know he was thinking about it too? Haha, no but really I was going to answer this but then Tae decided to talk about it himself again, so I had to write a longer post rather than just answer your ask. Sorry.

But yes, he does raise a lot of questions. I hope you have gotten the answer to most of my own thoughts and concerns regarding the Christmas song in my post about it as well as in the asks I have answered now. :) Thank you for the ask, sorry it took a while to answer.

So, thank you all for these asks, and sorry for not being very clear in my post about the song... I have edited it now to add the part about him writing it himself. :) Happy Holidays everyone!
