#this may seem like a stupid take bc. obviously the server has other weird redstoners. but none so weird as zedaph i think

since we’ve heard they’re in talks for the 5th life smp season i’ve seen people saying zedaph should be added and at first i was like “hmm… i don’t know if that would go well.” and i say that as an enormous zedaph enjoyer. he’s extremely talented and funny and he gets along great with everyone, but he also spends all his time in a hole doing redstone crafts by himself and he’s kind of allergic to lore. typical hermit behavior doesn’t mesh well with the constraints of the series, so i thought, “if zedaph can’t do his normal mad scientist thing, what can he do?”

but then i realized. the series is so short-lived that people don’t spend time doing redstone or constructing elaborate builds. resources are extremely limited and players have to interact with each other. the life series forces everyone out of their comfort zone in one way or another.

we know that more typically solitary players have done well, and i know zedaph would rise to the challenge. he’s also an absolute wildcard. he has to put his energy somewhere. so now the question is, if zedaph can’t do redstone, what will he do instead?
