Chat: Are you finally playing around with 1.5, or have you been with the snapshots like Mindcrack? Or, alternately, are you still playing old versions and/or too busy with mod packs to care about vanilla? :P

Round robin fanfic in the comments!

[Chat: I'll update to 1.5 as soon as I get around to installing Optifine again. I'm laaazy.

(Unrelated to chat topic but relevant to our interests: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OWuwUHwUB4s I have never felt so many emotions over a documentary trailer before in my life. I could write a whole novel about why let's plays are important and how lpers can be heroic figures and give stability and a sense of togetherness, and I've been watching Kurt through some of the hardest years of my life so it's just-- my heart is-- /whinge.)]

The currency would be the easy part. The B-Team was rolling in the emeralds. Surely they wouldn't notice a little profit skimmed off the top. But if they did, two against one was no kind of odds. Baj would need backup; someone willing to break into the casino with him, someone cunning enough to escape notice. And preferably someone was also willing to go shopping afterwards.

(That trailer is so amazing. As someone who identifies with Kurt a lot, seeing how much he's evolved through his Minecraft career is really inspiring)

(Oh and all right, I'll have a go at the round robin, since this has been sitting here all day without anyone continuing it)

Unfortunately as Baj entered the nether hub to seek out a partner in crime and shopping, the first person he encountered was MC Gamer, who was fussing about in the lapis exchange. Might as well...

"Say MC, how would you like to go shopping? I'm sure you could find a nice, um, something or other to compliment your... whatever it is you do. Anyway, I'm a little short on cash, so we'll need to borrow some emeralds from the B-Team, but that shouldn't be too hard, right?"

"The B-Team? Yeah, those guys still owe me lapis!"

"No, we're not going to take the lapis. We're going to--"

"No lapis? Then what am I even doing this for?"

"You can take the emeralds and use them to buy the lapis, that's the whole point of money."

"Who's selling lapis, dog? Tell them to come over here to the lapis exchange!"

"Look, do you want to come or not?"

MC sighed. "Okay, fine I'll come, I was bored anyway."

Baj nodded and scratched his mustache thoughtfully. "Good, now to get ourselves some funds. There should be a generous amount in the casino from all the betting that goes on there."

A short trip through a portal later, they were outside the huge castle that housed the casino. The gates were closed and locked.

"I think Beef has upped his security." Observed MC. "How to we get in now?"

"We go over the wall."

MC cast a sidelong look at his co-conspirator. "I only have lapis on me...lapis doesn't make for a good rope." Not that he'd use his precious lapis in such a way anyway even if it could be utilised as a climbing rope.

"Well why don't we go punch that tree and make some ladders or something?" said Baj.

MC's expression lit up with an idea. "Hold on, I got this one! I'll use my advanced wall staple technique! I learned it from Mother 3."

"Yes, those would be ladders. I just said that. But never mind. Why don't you ladder your way inside and nick some of those emeralds, and I'll stay out here and warn you if anything happens. Think you can handle that?"

"I'm going to win."

"That's the spirit."

MC disappeared over the wall as Baj stayed behind and fantasized about all the wonderful shopping he was going to do. But as the minutes dragged on and MC had not reappeared, Baj began to suspect something was wrong. He scaled the ladder and had a peek at what was going on inside.

"Oh for fuck's sake," he muttered.

MC was seated on the ground, happily cuddling a waggily-tailed wolf puppy and feeding it steak. "Who's a good boy Jerry? Who's a good boy? Yes you are!"

"Oi!"

"Look, I found Jerry!"

"Emeralds?"

"Hm? Oh, yeah, here." MC reached into his pockets and handed Baj several stacks of sparkling green gems.

"That'll do nicely. Now, to the shops." Baj set off at a brisk pace. MC followed after him, the puppy nestled under his jacket.

"Hey Baj?"

"Hm?"

"... where are the shops, anyway?"

"Did someone say shops?" A voice from above called down to them. A brightly coloured hot air balloon floated just outside the castle, with Doc peering over the edge of the basket and waving. A moment later a rope ladder dropped down beside them.

"I know just the place! Hop in!"

Unrelated to the given topics, but anyone else listen to the Shaft Podcast that was just livestreamed? VintageBeef was the guest, and there were a bunch of other guys in the chat and it was a lot of fun. I wasn't planning on mentioning it here (though there was something about the Shaft guys confirming that naked Guude will be a thing that happens at PAX, and Beef declaring that he would sleep with all of them after they sang a song for him), but then at the very end this happened:

Wes: Have you been shipped yet?
Beef: All the time.
Brent: How do you feel about being shipped?
Beef: I'm cool with it.
Wes: What's your favorite person you've been shipped with so far?
Beef: The only one really that I think has happened is me and Pause, which is gross. [all laugh] Pause is a handsome man, but I like the ladies.

Come on, Beef, you get shipped with way more people than just Pause. And I'm not really sure how you're expecting to be shipped with girls at this point.

Maybe he wants shipped with some genderbends?

Now the question is, is there some kind of weird incestuous or similar implications of wanting to bone a vagina'd version of himself, or would he prefer the genderbends of someone else? And if so, what implications does that have on his relationship with the male version of that person?

...Do now kind of want some kind of version of the server where its like, they cross a line and it's like a mirror flipped version of everything there and its like the guys on one side and the girls on the other. In my head, they'd not be gender flipped versions so much as perhaps twins or siblings. Or mirror verse counter parts.

Spoilers: I am already writing a fic verse where this happens. Whether the genderbends are related in any meaningful way to their originals is still undecided.

I think the guys agreed the enderdragon was named Glydia, but somehow I doubt he'd find that an acceptable lady to be shipped with. :p

Well he did apparently impregnate her, so maybe you are on to something.

Oh gosh I forgot about that. I... I have a really ridiculous romance movie poster in my head now. I may have to make a mock up. Did he ever find his baby?

So I just found this really interesting little post on tumblr after being linked to it by someone I follow (Yay Alex Day). I thought it was a nice little thing, sorta relevant.

Still trying to think of a post for that round robin thing.

That is an awesome article and I think I'm going to link that in my FAQ post somewhere.

Oh my god Vechs XD I think they all just get together every so often and cackle madly at what we come up with. Just once a week, they get together and bring up who's been shipped with who this week.

This week is of course, Baj/Shopping.

Oh Vetches. <3 Someone did write a brief fic of him and Zisteau in the comments somewhere, but who knows. I don't know if he's just saying that it exists because he knows about the Vechsteau ship (and therefore such fic must exist), or if there is actually real slash fic that he's seen of them.

Edit: ahaha, someone in the video comments left this amusing gem:

This little piggy went to market.
This little piggy stayed home.
This little piggy had roast beast.
This little piggy had none.
And this little piggy cried "COME GET SOME, MAP MAKER!" and chased Vetches all the way home.

I guess it counts? XD

Well he did say "implying any actually exists", which implies that he hasn't seen any.
Hehe. Vetches, some does exist. Proven, right herah!

For anyone who's still checking this thread, I'm not sure where else to ask. I wrote an F1 fic, but I have a small problem. That guy in the cutscenes who looks all disappointed when they don't place, who is he? Like, what's his official job title? I tried doing so much research, but I still can't figure out what to call him. I cannot post this fic until I find out!

Probably some kind of manager? I assume they have managers. Directors? Coaches? That sounds sportsy enough, doesn't it? Maybe he's like an intermediate between the sponsors and the racers?

I'd just go with manager, I guess.

Team manager. That's better than what I was coming up with. Awesome.
