Group Rewatch S1P1: Mashed Potatoes Spellbound Caves Episodes 1&2

[mindcrack_love]

Because you know what? Why not. It fulfills both my "not quite new" (the first episode is from January) and "not OOG(E)" requirements quite nicely. Beyond the first two episodes these are a completely blind watch for me as well!

So "Mashed Potatoes" is the name for Mhykol and PauseUnpause, who turn out to be much closer than I originally realized. Give it a watch - it just might surprise you.

Episode 1: Pause | Mhykol

Episode 2: Pause | Mhykol

So comment with all of your feelings and squee, shippy or otherwise (trust me, there's plenty of classic LPer mistakes to facepalm at here) and enjoy! We'll watch the next two episodes on Tuesday.

Unexpectedly good combination. :p Or maybe Pause is just a massive flirt. *lol* I noticed he mentioned Millbee..

Pause really is a massive, massive flirt.

I wasn't able to find any other Mashed Potatoes co-op, but they seemed to already be "established" here. Does anyone know if they first met through Mindcrack or by something else? Were they always this close? Has Pause basically abandoned Mhykol for Beef and/or Millbee now??

My favorite moments so far are in Episode Two: the two of them sleeping together and Mhykol being all "I'll touch you whenever I want", and Pause complimenting Mhykol's eyes. :3 :3 :3 I have a feeling this series is going to be really good.

Also, sigh at the not-realizing the Zisteaunian Battlesign really works, just doesn't glow. It's so crazy helpful in Vechs maps early on, and it's obvious in this one (unlike Waking Up, where it's more of an Easter egg).

Darn, I don't know if I'll be able to watch this. I'm very busy until Wednesday and the videos are already piling up. It sounds great, though. And yes, Pause is a flirt, though he turns it on more with some people than with others. Apparently Mhykol's one the of the "ons"! I never would have guessed it. They may have met through Race for Wool. I know they both played it during the early testing, although they were on different teams.

Up until recently I'd have called Pause Mindcrack's social butterfly. It was nice to see him with GennyB and Millbee the other day.

It seems like Pause has left everyone for Millbee. *g* He's always saying how much he loves him. Everyone else is just a bit on the side now. *lol*

And they missed the wood at the start to begin with. XD

Sorry guys, I got sixteen minutes into the first episode and had to bail. This is like everything I dislike about Pause, combined with someone else who I find boring at best. I have a lot more to say about those sixteen minutes, but it'd all be negative stuff, so I'm just going to politely bow out and wait for the next rewatch of something.

Sorry this wasn't for you!

As far as I can tell, this series is about 17 half hour episodes long, so we're going to be working on it for a bit of a while, but at least it's not as long as OOG Legendary, right? :P If you have suggestions for what our next "season" of group rewatch posts should be, feel free to let me know!
