Hello and welcome back to the next episode of Hermitcraft. I have got a plan of action together. I am making a mess of this. I'm growing some pumpkins because today we are going to be- Wow that was quick. We are gonna be doing a lot of little jobs and one of which is something that I've been preparing over here. So you can see, I've got a large area of basically nothing in here but I've added a hole with a campfire. Now I'm going to be making my own little creeper farm. It's not gonna be efficient. I think we care a little bit too much about making the most efficient farm ever but hopefully it will work. I think I know enough creeper mechanics to make this work for me which is the main thing and then I'm just gonna stack up multiple layers and get a creeper farm so I can get some gunpowder. Why do I need gunpowder? Well, it's not for rockets which you might expect. No, I have plenty of rockets. It's taken me a while to get through this box. What I actually need this for is some TNT because we've got a pretty big project ahead of us. So if we go over here. Well over here, up here, you'll see this! Cherry mountain! The overlooked and underappreciated landmass that connects many of us Hermits together. Yet we've decided to do nothing with it. Since the start of this season where we met very briefly here, we've done nothing with it. Well, not today! Today I'm going to set up a meeting between all the cherry mountain people and we're going to do something- Ah. A cherry tree just whacked me in the face. So that's the plan today. Get gunpowder- Wait, I didn't explain why I needed gunpowder. You'll see later. You'll also notice I've done a little bit of work around here. Not only is this place clean, look at that! A fresh storage system. I've also opened up this and created a bit more floor plan. Ay? Progress is happening. But I couldn't help but notice through the lovely rose bushes that the snelicopter has vanished That sneaky snail is up to something. The snelicopter is gone and there's a hole blasted out of it and just like last time- Wow! Even more diamond ore gone. That's a lot of diamond ore but I'm not sure it's actually that much. Do you know what's really upsetting? Is I don't think the snails have even taken half of how many diamonds there were here. Half the- That's insane. Ah hello. Oo! Big Ron's now open. [GEM] Big Ron's? [GRIAN] Isn't that Mumbo's- That's Mumbo's house. [GEM] The snails have gone to Mu- [GRIAN] I think Mumbo has got like a multiple personality thing going on because he's got several shops owned by different people but I'm pretty sure they're all him. [GEM] Right... Well, we better go check out Big Ron. [GRIAN] Last time I checked, there wasn't a Ron on the server. [GEM laughs] [GRIAN] Mumbo's been doing some work! [GEM] This looks awesome! [GRIAN] Look- Gem, he's done some trees. Do you think- [GEM] I know! [GRIAN] Do you think he did these? I think he did these! [GEM] I think so! Look at the details! They got trapdoors on them. [GRIAN] Right, here's Big Ron's. [GEM] Big Ron's. [GRIAN] Big... Oh the "O" has gone down. Tech superstore. [GEM] It certainly looks like a super store. [GRIAN] Mm. [BOTH laugh] [GEM] Okay. [GRIAN] Mumbo doesn't know about this. [GEM] Okay.. [GRIAN] He hasn't got a clue [GRIAN] They've taken over Big Ron's. So they're selling the diamond ore for four diamonds for two. Now that's a bargain, I don't know about you. Can you make money doing this? So if I put four diamonds in, I take two diamond ore and then you just mine it. Come on, be kind to me. [GEM] Let's see. Oh! [GRIAN] Eight diamonds! [GEM] What? [GRIAN] I just doubled my money! [GEM] What?! [GRIAN] I've just doubled [GRIAN] my diamonds. Thank you very much snails. [GRIAN] What a brilliant- This is perfect. [GEM] These snails have got a legitimate business. [GRIAN] Hold on, hold on. I'm gonna go again. [GEM] Uh-huh. [GRIAN] I'm up to seven. I'm up to seven. I didn't do- I think I've gone down now. You know what? I'm gonna stop there. I'm up, I'm gonna leave. [GEM] Wow okay. [GRIAN] And they're wearing Scar's hat as well. [GEM] You go, little snails. [GRIAN] Not only did they take his diamonds, they took his attire. [GEM] I love them. [GRIAN] You see in the back there? Private and confusing. [GEM] Yeah, enter the private and confusing door. [GRIAN] Uh-huh. [GEM laughs] This is where they parked the chopper?! [GRIAN] Yeah, how did they get it in here? [GEM laughs] Oh the snails. [GRIAN] That's not for us to worry about, I don't think. [GEM] Yeah, not our problem. Mumbo's problem really. [GRIAN] Yeah, this is genuinely Mumbo's problem. [GEM] Mumbo's problem. [GRIAN] Mumbo's problem. And this is what happens when Scar doesn't do anything about the snelicopter. They succeeded, I guess. He had plenty of time to stop them. [GEM] Now they're selling his ore. [GRIAN] Yeah, not sure they've got the permit for that but I'm not sure that they're Hermits so... [GEM] Yeah. Snails don't need permits. [GRIAN] They're so cute. [laughs] They look like such- If we can give them a bow tie, I would. [GEM] [laughs] They're so distinguished. [GRIAN] [laughs] They are really distinguished. They're trying to run a legitimate business here. [GEM laughs] [GRIAN] Scar could solve this problem by buying his own diamonds back. [GEM] Oh true! [GRIAN] Yeah but don't tell him that. [GEM] What if Mumbo buys them though? [GRIAN] Don't tell him they're there. Well, considering it took him that long to even see the snelicopter, they might be out of diamonds by the time this goes down. [GEM] He's not gonna notice. Mumbo is gonna buy all of those, it'll be fine. [GRIAN laughs] Oh those snails. Alright. It's been a long time since the snails have made a big move like that but I just love these little snails so much. They're just doing their little- They've got their own little side quest going on which is really fun. I think Scar missed his opportunity to get his own snail. He didn't do the magic words. There's a way for people to get a snail but only Gem has figured it out. Grian's fireworks. Oh this is what Cub gave me. Cuboom fireworks now open. Yay! Ow! Ow! Ow! Ow! Ouch. Oh that's pretty cool. That's pretty cool! I'm not gonna waste them too much, I've just wasted a bunch of them. Right, let's turn our attention to this creeper farm. Now like I just said, it should be, in theory, fairly easy to put together. I do know a little bit about creepers. There's a couple of farms. Actually, there's sort of three or four major farms that you can do to get gunpowder. One of them is with cats. I'm not messing with cats. I cannot be bothered to ferry cats all the way over here. I think that's the best way to do it because they're scared of cats. Or you can just have them like a passive farm where they walk off the edge. Again, not so great. The third thing you can do is use snow golems because they will attack, as far as I'm aware, they will attack a creeper and then the creeper will walk towards them and then they walk into the hole. So that's the method we're going to use. Alright, please do not take this as a viable tuto- Oh! Yeah, wonder how many times this is gonna happen. Right, do not take this as a viable tutorial because it's not. I am just winging this a little bit. Alright, that should block the water. Cool, so this is what we're gonna funnel them into and then the creepers fall down here and they get pushed eventually into the hole. As simple as it gets, right? So we've got a platform, now we need to put the snow golem here in the middle. Right, and then I think if I put fences here, we need to stop it from actually falling off the platform. There we go! We have a snow golem. And now we have a friend. Alright, so that's part two. Platform, snow golem. Now we need to force only creepers to spawn in this space. Now the thing about creepers is that they're just short of two blocks tall. So by adding a bunch of trapdoors and this is super expensive, we force only creepers to spawn in this spot apart from the fact that spiders will spawn and we mitigate that with carpet. They can spawn in a 2 by 2 space. Right, so the best configuration is not gonna be a pretty one. I might need to do a bit of trouble shooting because I have a feeling once the creeper's aggro'd it needs a way to get to the snow golem. I think this, this is the reason that a lot of people opt for bamboo because it's a lot cheaper than wood. Maybe that's what I should do next is swap these spruce doors which I use an awful lot of. This- [sighs] This feels like it should work but for some reason I have- Maybe the creeper can get that close and then explode? Ah, we'll find out. wow. Why can I see- That might be a glitch with my mod but I can see through there. Oh that's- That's weird. Right, it needs to be completely pitch black in there for anything to spawn. I'm a bit worried that absolutely nothing has spawned. I should be- I should be far enough away, I think. Oh! Oh! Oh! Nooo! Okay. Something- Okay, that is not what we wanted to happen. I had a suspicion that they'd be able to explode. Alright, I have amended the design. It was as simple as moving this block forward. I was actually right the first time. I needed a bigger gap here so that the creepers don't just explode when they feel like they're too close. So by pushing all this back and neatening up the design, I think I've got something that's actually a little more pleasing on the eye as well because it's finally symmetrical. Now there's tons and tons of creeper farms out there and they all use similar methods but the one I had a quick look at was the one by Wattles. Now hold on. We need to see with our own eyes some creepers spawning in here. So please- Oh have I messed up anywhere? As long as there's a trapdoor above, we're not gonna have the same situation that happened last time. This is all your fault. Why is there not a single creeper? There's not a single creeper. Okay. Right, it's been- It's been at least five minutes now so let's- Let's go and get some torches and do something about this. Right, this area in particular is our problem spot. This is soaking up a lot of my potential mob spawning locations because they'll just be sitting here taking up- Oo! Careful! Oo it's- Oo it's getting spicy! Oo! Parkour! Dodge! Parkour! Yikes! If we needed any further proof- If we needed any further proof that this was the problem area, there's a ton of mobs here! If your farm isn't working, it's because they're spawning in caves around you. Always. Aha! There we go! Right, proof of concept. Creepers are falling in. Not many. Definitely not many but that is definitely enough for me because we know now that the problem is just unlit caves. Oh! Look at that profit! 17 gunpowder! Oh! Ohh! Look at that! Oh we're gonna- We're gonna make like two TNT with that. Now that we've got that squared away, let's open this up and make the other platforms. I'm gonna light up a few more of these caves and I think we can probably fill out the rest of this farm in the form of a timelapse. I just got really up in your grill just then. I'm so sorry. [MUSIC] Alright, it's done. It could in theory probably have one, two- No at least one more layer but I've stopped there just to see how it's going and it's going really, really well. I'm not gonna lie, it's not the most impressive fastest farm in the world and it's probably a lag causing machine. However, as you can see it's doing pretty well on collecting gun powder. So let's take a quick look at how much it's produced. That was pretty swift, hey? 59 gunpowder. That's a lot better than the 17 we just had. So this is going pretty well. I need to invite all of the other cherry mountain people via the mail system while I wait for all this to happen. Multitasking. Who's on the mountain? We got Mumbo, we got Gem. I think that's everyone: Skizz, Impulse, Joel, Scar, Mumbo, Gem, we all are around- Cherry mountain meeting 8 pm tonight. Hopefully I'll be there. Right, do we have to do this one at a time? I'll be honest with you, I think I'll be lucky if even a single person turns up. Right, do you know why this is better than Discord? It's not but if you think of something, let me know. I think we'll be lucky if this works. I'm really stress testing [laughs] Etho and Pearl's postal system. We are making some gunpowder, I'm gonna AFK up here for a couple of hours and see how we do on the creeper front. Be back in a few hours to see how we've done. It's nearly time for our meeting so whatever we've got is whatever we've got. Let's take a look. Oh I didn't think about the sand. Hey! That's not great. I would've hoped for a little bit more than that because I've been AFK for... Oof about three hours so that's- That's not great. So I will have to look at how maybe I need to position myself slightly differently and maybe I need to light up some more caves and it could just be the amount of people online as well. That doesn't help on a multiplayer server. But either way, we can put something together hopefully. We need to put together lots of TNT. We've got four stacks of TNT, we are going to need a way to ignite that. It should be fairly easy. I don't know how far this is gonna go but we've got a ton of TNT. Now there is a real possibility, a real worry that this and hopefully this TNT will make sense. I promise, this will make sense. It really will, it really will make sense but trust me, this is part of the process. Now there is a real possibility that this TNT does some significant damage to our friends which means I think we should set a rule in place right from the start and the rule goes like this: no stuff at meetings. No stuff at meetings. I think that's a great rule. If you don't wanna lose your stuff, don't bring it. That's what I think the rule should be. I might have got this just about right. Now I'm trying to spread out all the different layers of TNT so we can get a pretty decent explosion. I mean, this is gonna be one of those explosions that's really big but not very efficient because it's all piled into one place. Right, let's see how far this gets us. That's it. So in theory if I make a meeting spot here, that's the TNT. That's the lever. Don't press the lever. No one press the lever. I need to make some chairs. Right I think we're ready and I'll sit here so that the lever's closest to me. Did they get my letter? [JOEL] Grian? [GRIAN] One. You got my mail? Did it get to you? [JOEL] It did get to me, yes. [SKIZZ] Alrighty. [GRIAN] Two. [IMPULSE] Oh hi. [GRIAN] Gem! Three! Four! [SKIZZ] Are we almost there? [GRIAN] Oh. [JOEL] One more. [GRIAN] One more. [IMPULSE] Who are we missing? [GRIAN] Who's got a bed? [JOEL] Mumbo and Scar. [IMPULSE] Scar? [GRIAN] I need epic entrance music for this. Avengers assemble. [laughing] [IMPULSE] It did feel that way, didn't it? [GRIAN] Come on Scar, you can do it. [IMPULSE] Oh man, I thought I was gonna be late. I literally just read my mail. [SCAR] Oh I had to save a- [cheering] [GRIAN] And guess who's not here. [JOEL] Er... [GRIAN] Mambo. [JOEL] Mambo Jambo. [IMPULSE] Ah come on. [GRIAN] Hi everybody, welcome to- Is this the second meeting? The first one being on like episode one? [JOEL] Yeah. [GRIAN] So second meeting of the magical mountain, cherry mountain crew we really need to nail down that- [JOEL] Magic mountain. [GRIAN] Before we begin, there's one rule that I think we should carry on for every meeting after this, for very obvious reasons. We should attend meetings with no stuff. No stuff, no gear, no items, nothing. Just- So let's just take five, go back to our bases, put our stuff away and meet back here. [SCAR] Can we fly back up to the mountain? [SKIZZ] We're gonna walk up here? [GEM] How do we get up- Okay. Okay sure. [JOEL] Please don't blow up the mountain too much, Grian. [GRIAN] This has nothing to do with the lever on the floor. [SCAR] No wings? [GRIAN] Right, we're gonna get rid of everything. Just to be safe. Look how pretty this is! Right, we'll put our ender chest here next to Mumbo's empty seat and there we go, we're ready for the meeting. I also realised... Do ender chests blow up? [JOEL] Yes. Sometimes. [GRIAN] Well I'll lose this one. [JOEL] I think that would be fine to be honest depending on how big the explosion is. [GRIAN] What are you talking about? There's no explosion Joel. [JOEL] Well why are you asking if the ender chest blows up, Grian? [GRIAN] No reason! [laughs] [JOEL] Everyone else lives really far away, by the way. [GRIAN] Yeah, this was a bit of a bigger journey for them. [JOEL] Seen any good movies lately? [GRIAN] Yeah. [JOEL] Cool, that's all I wanted to know. Don't need to know the name, just I'll thank to you saying so. [GRIAN] There's this one that just came out called Toy Story. [JOEL] That's not come out recently. [SCAR] Oo! That was quite the hike. Oh boy. [SKIZZ] That was a tough hike. I- [laughs] [SKIZZ] I forgot how big this mountain is. [GEM] It's our weekly exercise. [IMPULSE] I listened too intently, I didn't even bring food. Joel, do you got an extra one of those? [GRIAN] I wonder- I wonder why I've got an extra seat. [JOEL] Why have you got an extra seat? [GRIAN] Weird. Anyway. Shall we begin? [SKIZZ] We shall. [JOEL] Sure? [GRIAN] I've got a confession to make. I don't have the best reason for us to get together. I was kind of hoping you guys would have some ideas but hey, I'm gonna just kick things off and see where we go. [IMPULSE] [laughs] Okay. [GRIAN laughs] [laughing] [SKIZZ] I just wanna say, Grian you fit right in with a lot of people I work with buddy. [laughing] [GEM] This could've been an e-mail! [GRIAN] This could've definitely not been an e-mail. [JOEL] We literally have mail now guys, come on. [IMPULSE] Yeah. [GRIAN] Right listen. Listen. Scar back up, back right up. [SCAR] Oh hey hey! I don't know what's going on. Hey oh! [GRIAN] Listen everyone, when we started this season I didn't really know what my base was gonna be but I knew one thing, I really like the idea of having a volcano and everyone knows that this is kind of close. It's a big old mountain but it hasn't got the donut in the middle. So my thought is if we turn magic mountain into a volcano, we can do something in the volcano together as a group project. I don't know what that is. I don't know what that group project looks like. [SCAR] I have an idea! [IMPULSE] I like it. [JOEL] Excited to build another volcano, Scar? [SCAR] No, no, I got an idea. We could sacrifice people to the gods of the volcano. [GRIAN] Well that's not what I had in mind. [IMPULSE] Yeah I sacrifice Skizz! [JOEL] Okay, weird? [GRIAN] But it's still a big project to do and I thought I'd just kick start things. [TNT sizzling] [IMPULSE] Oh! [chatter] [GEM] What did you just do? [GRIAN laughs] [laughs] Perfect. Well, I think we can put our stuff back on. I didn't expect a full instant death explosion, that was- That was quite something. Well let's go and see how well that did for us. Let's have a look. [JOEL] This has actually left quite a big hole. How much TNT did you put in here? [GEM] I accidentally fell in. [GRIAN] That's everything- [JOEL] Did you survive? [GRIAN] I'm pretty sure we all- We all died. What? [GEM] What was that? [SKIZZ] Ey! Ey! Ey! What's happened? [GRIAN laughs] [laughing] [SKIZZ] I'm wearing my stuff! [laughing] [SCAR] We've got to set our spawns up at the top before- What in the world?! [SKIZZ] [laughs] Oh man! [GRIAN] It's not as- [sighs] [GRIAN] It's not as good as it could have been. [SCAR] That's huge! [GRIAN] It's not as good as it could've been though. [JOEL] Sorry Gem, I was trying to help. [SCAR] It's an enormous hole! [GEM] Joel! [JOEL] Uh-oh. I'm sorry, it was an accident. [GRIAN] The point is everyone that this was me trying to make a start. This is like- Well, it's maybe 10%? No 1% of the mountain? As a hole? It's not- Oh dear. [JOEL] You've made a big- Like you started well though I feel like. [GRIAN] It's a dent. It's a big project. [SKIZZ] But it's a start. [GRIAN] The creeper farm I just made that was everything it made so we're gonna have to work on this together. [JOEL] Maybe we should build a bigger creeper farm. [SCAR] Oohh! [laughing] [GEM] It's perfect really. [GEM] I can't imagine a better hole. [IMPULSE] Yeah it works pretty good. [GRIAN] I was very much hoping that the explosion would go to the cave. How far off was I? Ages. [JOEL] Still far off? What the heck? [GRIAN] Hey listen, listen. Maybe we can start a little bit of a tradition here with the meetings. Every meeting one person is like kind of like the imposter, like the boogeyman situation and they've got to kill another member but we never know who it is. [SKIZZ] Oo! [JOEL] We'll never know who's killed another member at all. [SCAR] But we could make like a little lava dome down there we could sacrifice people to. [GRIAN] Scar, what is it with the- [GEM] Yeah, Scar, that's a perfect idea. [GRIAN] What's with the sacrificing? [JOEL] Who do you want to sacrifice? [GRIAN] Shall we kick him off the mountain? [SKIZZ] No! [IMPULSE] He's barely attached to it anyway. [GRIAN] He made that tunnel just so he could be a part of the gang, you know? [SCAR] I attached to this thing and I'm the one who set the bell over there that we stole from Doc so there. [JOEL] One thing we should do is definitely not tell Mumbo this is what we are doing until he dies next time. [GRIAN] Any contributions to the hole is welcome. You can blow it up, mine it, do what you like. I would say let's leave like 25 blocks perimeter around the edge and then everything else is the biggest giantest volcano you've seen. Hopefully this all makes sense now. We're going to turn Magic Mountain into a volcano which is what I was really hoping for at the start of the season but I ended up with a hollow- Not a hollow. I ended up with- Well I mean there is a hole there. There was this ravine but it's not quite- It's not quite the volcano I was looking for. We've got a long group project ahead of us which should be a ton of fun. We are very open to ideas for what to put in here. Scar, you did notice that it's gone, right? [SCAR] The what? [GRIAN] The helicopter. The snelicopter. [SCAR] No! I sold that helicopter for a terracotta permit! Wait a second! Where'd it go? [GRIAN] Oh no, Scar! [IMPULSE] Uh-oh. You're gonna get repossessed buddy. [GRIAN] Scar, it's gone. [JOEL] Terrible start. [GRIAN] So this is Big Ron's right? [JOEL] Awful second one. [SKIZZ] So it's four diamond- [JOEL] Oh! [gasps] [GRIAN] Four diamonds for two ore. [JOEL] Yo! That went up from 16 to 25. [GRIAN] Well there you go, free money. [GEM] There you go! [JOEL] I love Big Ron's! [GRIAN laughs] [JOEL] I'll buy more. [JOEL] The thing is you can keep buying them from profits. [GRIAN laughs] [SKIZZ] Yeah dude. Okay, okay. [GRIAN] Leave some for Mumbo, leave some for Mumbo. [SKIZZ] No! [GRIAN] You see the snails here, they're not mathematicians but they are smart because the diamonds we're putting in are not Scar's diamonds, they're now the snail's diamonds. [JOEL] I've basically doubled my money, guys, I started with 16 and I'm on 30 diamonds. [GRIAN] Quit while you're ahead, Joel. [JOEL] I'm gonna quit yeah. [SKIZZ] I started with 16 in one go I got 23 diamonds. [GRIAN] Bro, there you go. [SKIZZ] The snails, I said it's a poor business model. [GRIAN] No, it's a great business model because you see, the problem is that these deepslate diamond ores currently belong to Scar but these diamonds that you're giving them, they're theirs now. [GEM] Now you're in debt to Scar. [SKIZZ] This is terrible! [JOEL] Wait, I'm in debt to Scar? [GEM] [laughs] [GRIAN] [laughs] [JOEL] Wait, how many diamonds am I in debt to Scar? [GRIAN] Ooo! [SKIZZ] This is deepslate diamond ore. [JOEL] Wait Scar's mountain- I swear Scar was digging this out. Oh it's bloomin' what's it called, isn't it? [GEM] It's only the side that he's digging. [JOEL] Yeah I know but it's not loaded in on Bobby. Oh my gosh. [GRIAN] He could've put this energy towards the volcano. What is this? Cub's hidden hideout. [JOEL] Cub's hidden hideout. [GRIAN] 44?! [JOEL] Wait what?! [GRIAN] How many- What?! [JOEL] How many- He's got more? It might even go higher than 44. [GRIAN] What? No, he just put 44 on there just so we'd give him this reaction right? There's no way he's got 44 hidden bases. [JOEL] Does he want us to search for his hidden bases? [GRIAN] Yeah it is Cub, it is Cub. He may very well have 44 hidden hideouts. [JOEL] Wow. We should find them. [GRIAN] Yeah my base, I'm gonna have to look in my base. Well I better continue AFK-ing at the creeper farm if we're gonna make any sort of dent in the mountain. Alright, I think that is going to be the end of this episode. How very exciting it is that we have a big old project. Now that doesn't mean we're just going to ignore our other responsibilities. We're still going to be chipping away at the builds that we've got going on. We're going to improve this. There's also the prismarine farm that needs attention. There's a whole bunch of stuff that needs doing. So it's just exciting to have a really big project. Especially when you're working with the rest of the crew and we're coming up with little games along the way. Next meeting we've already figured it out. We're gonna choose a little boogeyman, a boogeyman using the mail system. So if we put in a bunch of the shulker boxes and we don't know which one says boogeyman on it and then we send them out. Job's a good'un. So that's it for today's video. Thank you very much for watching, I hope you enjoyed it. Good-bye!
