#the vod was also pretty close to disappearing so I needed to watch it anyway since Michael doesn't upload recap videos or vods anywhere

Day 8 | 12/1/19

Michael hopes on SMP Earth after an hour of Clone Hero. He joins the server and is greeted by James and gun noises. After attempting to see if he could play Minecraft with his clone hero guitar (but failing to know how to turn those controls on), he joins a VC filled with so much chaos already that I don’t even know who all was in there. All I know is that there was Dinkster, Poke, Burren, and Jameskii in there. He leaves after a minute though anyway and joins a private call with James.

He immediately wants to buy a gun after killing a couple of zombies.

Michael finds out James is building a train station in a horizontal chunk error into the side of their mountain.

They talk about how good villagers are and how airstrikes work.

Michael gets scared by a creeper exploding thinking that it was a gun and proceeds to yell “MOTHERFUCKER” over and over. He also yells at Chip about it.

Michael brings up the idea to put a bunker in their mountain courtesy of his girlfriend’s suggestion.

Michael gets James to make him an efficiency 5 pickaxe since James apparently has 64 XP levels.

Apparently the IP got leaked by someone but no one got in since the server has protection against that.

Michael pokes fun at Junkyjanker with that since he had leaked the IP for SMP Live when he joined.

They talk about taxes.

The server closes for a bit.

Poke raids Michael and then joins their VC.

They talk about a lot of random stuff. James and Poke always create interesting conversations.

Michael tries to get Chip to give him a gun by pulling him into a VC.

Sylvee joins VC to try to talk to Chip.

Chip leaves the VC but Michael tries to get him to come back because James and Poke are trying to get their friend on the server because Wilbur already approved.

James breaks 16 chests filled to the brim with blocks so all the blocks are just on the ground and lagging the entire server. 

James and Michael try to bury each other in their horizontal chunk error.

Luna (a member of Fruit Club and the friend James and Poke were trying to get on the server) joins the VC before getting on the server.

James obtains a picture of Stan Lee and gives it to Michael.

Poke keeps talking about buying furniture throughout this all.

Luna joins packle.

Michael cockblocks Luna from getting materials for a little bit.

Michael still wants a gun but has not purchased one yet.

He works on the houses he’s supposed to be building for the people who donated to him.

They won’t stop breaking Michael’s chests.

Sylvee shares her plans to make MadaNascar

Michael tries to get someone to buy him a gun AGAIN.

Michael finds out that the block glitch for climbing people’s houses in their claimed lands no longer works.

He finds Christmas island that has a Christmas tree built by Sylvee.

Chip and Inktea join the VC and almost hear some really disgusting stuff.

Someone tried to hack the server but couldn’t since it was protected and now they technically have his information because the kid didn’t use a VPN.

Poke has been trying to find a ping pong table to buy for like ten minutes.

Michael flies to Luna, James, and Sylvee.

Poke leaves.

Kara joins the VC

Michael and Luna discover how to deforest extremely quickly.

They pull Jordan into the call to bully him and demand things.

Everyone flies to Jordan’s base.

They make Jordan give them a chorus fruit to grow and Kara gives them endstone.

They all stay around Jordan’s base as they wait for the chorus fruit to grow.

Inktea watches them from afar

The ever ominous Inktea

Kara shoots Ink with her gun, he disappears for a second, and reappears on top in full diamond armor again.

Chip arrives to watch too.

They attempt to leave Jordan

Kara kills Chip.

Chip retaliates and airstrikes them.

Jordan gets upset by Kara ringing his bell at his base.

Sylvee attacks Michael in his plane as they fly around.

Michael and Sylvee join Chip’s VC to ask him why he’s following them and Michael demands a gun. Jameskii is also in the VC with Ink. James joins as well.

Sylvee won’t stop asking if Jameskii is naked.

Chip and Jameskii leave the VC.

They arrive back in California.

Jordan joins the VC.

BeanIsland becomes allies with Packle.

KingdomOfJordan becomes allies with Packle.

Jameskii and Chip come back into the VC. 

Sylvee murders Chip.

Chip finally gives Michael a gun after he won’t stop asking.

James one-shots Chip with a bow.

Chip makes a faction and makes it an enemy to Packle because he can.

There’s apparently a password people on the server are trying to figure out. Sneeg uses all the attempts before you can’t guess again for 24 hours. Jordan is just confused about what the password is for.

James cut out a section of earth and just fills it with water while Sylvee builds an extremely mini version of Earth in it.

Jameskii won’t stop asking about if there’s a Walmart.

Michael fills in James and Sylvee’s mini world hole.

Sylvee and Chip get blown up by a creeper.

Cuck somehow was renamed to Braphog so Michael makes a nametag to rename him back to cuck.

Michael logs off for the night because he got a headache and wasn’t feeling like playing Earth anymore that night.

Quotes:

Michael: “How gun.”

Jameskii: “There’s just one slice of bacon on the floor on a plate and it’s surrounded by really disturbing Mickey Mouse models with talking nipples.”

Michael: “Chat, give me a fursona. Draw me a fursona, chat. Make me super sexy.”

Michael: *reading subscription message* “‘don’t disrespect the blood god’ fuck that. I’ll fuckin’ spit in blood god’s mouth.” James: “I’ll go whoop blood god’s fucking ass right now.” Michael: *laughing* “I’ll pull out my AK47.”

Michael: “I’m gonna dox him.”

James: *doing that weird voice he does* “Kill me.” Sylvee: “I don’t like that.”

James: “Michael is simpin’ right now.”

James: “Catch me in the woods, taming that wood.” Poke: “What does that- yeah, I agree.”

James: “My man boobs are throbbing in excitement.”

Michael: “DON’T SHOOT CUCK.”

Poke: “I’m currently being gay, can you leave me alone for two seconds, Michael.”

Michael: “Why are you strippin’ my shit, you fucking hoe.”

Poke: “I’m gonna use Michael as a ping pong table.” Michael: “I’m gonna use you as a fucking cum rag.”

Poke: “When the cum sock starts walking.”

Sylvee: (to Jordan) “You sound sad.” Jordan: “Oh, I am.”

Sylvee: “Hey guys, Miss Captain Jordan Ladybug Sparklez here, back at it again with a Minecraft lets play.”

Kara: “Go sleep.” Michael: “I can’t, Kara! I’m showing James my ass.”

Half of the quotes are James. He just says too much weird shit to NOT quote him.

hey sorry can i ask... what foreververse is and if its worth getting into?

foreververse is an rpg show from geek & sundry (it airs live on twitch and alpha wednesdays at 4:30 pacific time) that follows a group of characters as they move through multiple rpg systems in search of... something.

it gets a little confusing bc each player has their “prime” character / “alpha” character (terms used interchangeably) who they play mostly in flashback sequences and who ultimately underscore all their subsequent characters, and they also have characters that are specific to each system they play. so far they’ve played pugmire (which was technically the last mini-campaign of no survivors before it turned officially into foreververse (no survivors was an rpg show that ran on geek and sundry for like a year or something that was a series of completely unconnected mini-campaigns-- if you saw the paranoia oneshot on the g&s youtube featuring wil wheaton, felicia day, laura bailey, matt mercer, and the regular cast, that was no survivors) but they still count pugmire as foreververse canon), world of darkness, 7th sea, the witch is dead, and puppetland, and they either have just started or are just about to start playing eclipse phase, not to mention the 3572037234 one-shots they’ve done.

if you like sci-fi, foreververse has got it. if you like fantasy, foreververse has got it. if you particularly like fantasy where instead of orcs and elves and humans everyone are dogs, foreververse has got it. if you like pirates, foreververse has got it. if you like strong sibling relationships, foreververse has got it (seriously, the most enduring and profound relationship in the entire show is between two siblings. the only “romances” are played 100% as jokes and have no major impact on the story or the characters at all).

if you find yourself particularly frustrated about popular rpg shows being overwhelmingly white, foreververse has your back there, too: of the six current cast members (gm not included), one is hector navarro (a latino man, whose primary character and 7th sea character both speak with spanish accents), damion poitier (a black man), and erika ishii (an asian woman). half of the players are nonwhite (disclaimer: damion doesn’t show up until 7th sea and erika doesn’t show up until the witch is dead).

it’s not a perfect show (one npc in particular comes across, at least to me, like a weird stereotype of a developmentally disabled person? but I’m abled so I’m not really qualified to speak on that, and he disappears pretty quickly once world of darkness ends), but it is very, very good.

its following is tiny-- it averages roughly 300 views on twitch per episode, and any tumblr fandom presence is pretty much just me, so if you’re looking for a new fandom to jump into with lots of art and fanfiction (there’s a bunch of art on twitter though!) this show can’t really fulfill that need. if you’re looking for really innovative storytelling, foreververse is unlike any show I have ever seen before. I, personally, highly recommend it.

the backlog of episodes is very slowly being uploaded to youtube and the g&s website, but they started doing that a number of months after the show actually started (it officially switched over from no survivors to foreververse in october) so don’t expect to get caught up that way. I also don’t suggest watching them on alpha, because alpha only has, like, 2/3 of the episodes and they’re numbered as though none of them are missing, so it’s a confusing and, frankly, misleading option. it’s not ideal, but the best bet, I’ve found, is to scroll through the g&s twitch backlog and watch the vods there. I know that’s a lot of work, but I’ve found it’s the most reliable option.

I used to keep a sort of database of where each episode can be found over on foreververse dot tumblr dot com but I haven’t updated it in close to 2 months (life got in the way).

anyway, it’s a really good show. I, personally, cherish it dearly. I’ve been watching no survivors since before foreververse was even a twinkle in ivan van norman’s eye, and I’m gonna see this show through to the end. I love it. but I understand that it’s a big commitment-- it’s a lot of episodes-- and it’s inconvenient and fandom-wise it’s high-risk-no-reward, since pretty much nobody makes any sort of content for it (once I’m caught up I’ll get back into gif-making). but it’s a really good show with a lot of heart and it is so much more than just a high-fantasy dnd romp; they make it a point to feature up-and-coming and indie rpgs, so who knows? you might just find your new favorite system.

plus! amy vorpahl and jason charles miller write songs about the previous week’s adventure and play them at the beginning of each episode! how fucking sweet is that!!

plus plus! one of their wold of darkness characters is a gay jewish werewolf and truly no fictional character could ever even dream of representing me better. truly my pinnacle.
