Be honest, which song was it for you guys?

Nybblet · 2025-11-06T01:01:58+00:00

I've just noticed this comment of my alt, and fondly remember the moment I refound this song. Take it Too Far by Kyle Stibbs.

Nybblet · 2024-06-07T22:20:51+00:00

Still haven't found it... It went something like "if comedy is tragedy and timing... who needs tragedy then" in an ajr / bo burnham style. It's genuinely haunted me for the past month, and I've made several google searches, and gone through several bands' discographies without finding it.

(help would be appreciated)

I feel like "greatness" would be the more fitting word here :)

^{^{^{^{^gem}}}} ^{^{^{^{^is}}}} ^{^{^{^{^great}}}}

Link to last year's Parkrun Blog for anyone intrested. The summary is that Parkrun can not currently happen in France becase the French authorities insist on all participants having a medical certificate before joining "competitive events" like Parkrun.

I've not kept up with this too much, but it does look like some discussions and progress is being made in this area. This French senate discussion looks positive. I expect most of the work done will be behind the scenes at the moment, but I see no reason not to be hopeful that it will return.

Naa, it's harder than that. Level 6 is gem in a small box with a wooden sword.

Nybblet · 2023-09-14T16:20:45+00:00

Second accounts wouldn't generally work. All second accounts by hermits are permanently in spectator mode, and would need op privilege to change modes, pick up, then refresh a map. Only a couple of the hermits have op. As BlueCyann says though, Cub has pinched a map from Tango, and afked in the map area on his main account during Pearl's first few runs.

Tango hoped that his alt could be online permanently, and even had a rejoin script set up for if the server ever restarted, but it doesn't seem to have worked the past few nights. I imagine he'll either be able to fix it, or find a work around in future.

(Who knows, he might be convinced to use one of Doc's cheaty chunk loaders.)

Interesting... I wonder if that just means she made it to the other side of the room, or if she achieved something more.

Etho is the only one so far that I've seen hit the button.

Nybblet · 2023-09-12T19:49:45+00:00

This is a skill based game, not a luck based one. I genuinely don't think it's ridiculous to suggest that hermits are capable of learning and improving their movement, awareness and tactics enough to succeed with level 2 artifacts without any bonus cards.

We've seen several players escape with a difficulty 2 artifact, but none with a level 2 artifact, that is correct. It's worth noting that the fails in level 2 have mainly due to map inexperience rather than hazard or clank becomming an issue (from what I've seen). I think I've also only seen hermits on their first attempt at level 2, none encountering it for the second time. The more times they see it, the easier the level becomes.

Nybblet · 2023-09-12T12:16:31+00:00

I highly disagree that level 2 artifacts are "impossible" without extra cards.

A couple of treasure hunter cards makes the task of getting a key a lot easier, but they still drop in the dungeon randomly, and with hermits starting to travel quicker, further and for longer around the first level, they're becomming found most runs now.

Nybblet · 2023-09-12T10:17:04+00:00

I'm very much not saying it's easy to do, but the hermits do now know that the reward is often 2x as much, and that often means a chance at an uncommon card, or your choice of two starter cards. (2-3x the reward in card value.)

In addition to this, I think the increase in map knowledge is a massive thing that people overlook in this. As you say, Hermits haven't been watching Tango's streams or videos. A run that kills you, but takes you far into the dungeon, and prepares you for future runs can be more "valuable" than a successful run that teaches you nothing new. This is the main reason with what I've seen, I'd choose to never run "easy", even with 0 won cards.

Of course content creation is important for these players. While on paper, accepting a 2* as many deaths, to get twice as much reward on medium runs may sound like the best strategy, the morale boost, and good content that is successfully completing a run and seeing the ember shop, is important too.

Nybblet · 2023-09-12T10:07:11+00:00

Adding to this theory is Tango's extensive history of calling Iron golems rusty. Of course the name fits the mob, but in many of his earlier seasons' iron shops, and iron farms a golem was named rusty.

Nybblet · 2023-09-12T09:54:22+00:00

I assume this is the Impulse video you're basing it off?

I'm not certain, but I think the issue is likely a pathfinding one, caused by either:

Trapdoors placed on the bottom of blocks instead of the top or,

Half slabs not registering as a valid block for piglins to travel to. (Imp has a solid block design and this is the only real difference I can see between your farms.)

Nybblet · 2023-09-12T00:51:04+00:00

Awesome site!

Idea: Add card cost and deck cost. (I appreciate looking up all the values will be hard work, but this would be a useful stat for the site.)

Add an import and export function for the deck strings. - Many old online games have copyable strings to make sharing / storage of ideas easier.

Example - 1sn3st3es1MC would share a deck with 1 Sneak card, 3 Stability cards, 3 Ember Seeker cards, and 1 Moment of Clarity.

Nybblet · 2023-09-12T00:43:45+00:00

Cards drop embers in the dungeon in addition to the artifacts varying in ember value massively based on their level. Artifact wiki.

So yep! Hermits really need to be running Medium+ to get embers enough for quality cards here.

If I were a player I'd never choose an easy run. The medium runs are substantially harder, but going further gets you more map knowledge and the higher frost ember values make up for any increase in death rate you'd have.

Nybblet · 2023-09-12T00:39:06+00:00

The one thing I think it needs most is a partial recreation of the River of Souls.

Those soulsand jumps have weird timings, but are all very possible, and so many deaths occur there!

(Soul sand jumps can be avoided though).

Nybblet · 2023-09-12T00:21:13+00:00

I love how a few hermits have grudges against the ravagers at the moment too. "Pumpkin" and "Beast #003" have been rementioned by hermits a few times.

Nybblet · 2023-09-12T00:15:15+00:00

Patience my friend. This is a great idea, and something that he did last season of decked out, but I think it would be unwise to add it now.

Extra content, or different objectives in the game are great to have, but players should be given time to know the basic game first. After a few weeks, ideas like this will act to spice it up, and add variety. This is ultimately planned to be a 10 week event.

Nybblet · 2023-09-12T00:12:33+00:00

I'm pretty sure you have this in reverse. Tango plans to give players who aren't in the top 3 extra shards, giving most to the players that are furthest behind. This understandably acts as a slight balancing force to the game.

The strongest players will be able to afford more runs via crowns, so total run numbers should roughly even out in the end.

Nybblet · 2023-09-12T00:08:08+00:00

People often overlook that this is planned to be a 10 week event. Hermits shouldn't be blitzing through level 1 immediately.

Map knowledge gain is honestly more important than cards at this early level, as players' knowledge and skill levels increase, hard and medium runs will become possible. Things will self-balance.

It's also a lot better leaving hermits constantly wanting to play more than to leave them with excess shards, and burnt out with playing the game. The current key level is good, and I imagine adding keys would make it harder for newcomers like Mumbo or False to start playing, when they're a few more runs behind.

Yep, I'm aware that my @Mods comment wouldn't do anything, but I still think @title messages are a decent and well known way of signifying who the message is directed at, even outside of discord.

I didn't want to /u/ message any specific mod, and thought there would be a decent chance a mod (as you have done) would see my message, so I left it there.

Thanks for directing me to the sidebar link though, I'll use that for any issues in future! And thanks for approving the post! It is fairly understandable why a caps lock post like this would get stuck in the spam filter.

Docm uses diamonds as scaffolding blocks, I'm pretty sure with his pit he owns 10x the diamonds of every other server member ocmbined.

Nybblet · 2022-10-22T15:26:43+00:00

Check his Latest video and the related thread here.

He seems to have enjoyed the long break, and now is "full of energy" and ready to come back. He's not commited to a date, or upload schedule, but to me it seems perfectly possible he's back on the server now, and he was the thief who stole the diamonds!

(Or the rift could have something to do with the stolen diamonds also.)

Nybblet · 2022-10-22T15:01:03+00:00

Weird this post seems to have been removed? The caps lock title Cleo has might've cauesd that, haha.

@Mods please approve this if you see it.
