You Ever Been In A State Where You Physically Have No Energy, But You're Bored And Socially Understimulated

Limited Life if death had thrice the impact*

(*it was this or everyone having 8 hours and this was the most interesting of the options: Everyone still has 24 hours but dying loses 3 Instead of 1... Killing rewards are also tripled)

Everyone starts with 24 hours, with all the previous series having only one life (Or two) so the green yellow red life system is implemented for the first time ever.

Scott still kills Skizz, so does Bdubs. Scott and Bdubs both gain 3 hours and Skizz loses 12 hours bringing him to yellow almost immediately.

Jimmy and Joel still die to lava, Scar still falls down a hill and dies and Cleo still gets exploded by a creeper. They all lose 3 hours.

Impulse and Skizz still die to the creeper losing 3 hours each.

Martyn still boogey kills BigB gaining 3 hours and making Bigb lose 6... He also still dies soon after voiding the gain.

At the end of the first session: Scott and Bdubs are at 24:30. Scar, Impulse, Cleo, Jimmy and Joel are at 18:30. BigB is at 15:30 putting him in yellow. Skizz is at 6:30 putting him in red. Everyone else is at 21:30 much like in our timeline.

Joel, Jimmy and Grian still die to vex while raiding the mansion. They lose 3 hours each.

Joel still boogey kills Scar and Cleo though only Scars death counts as a boogey kill. Scar loses 6 hours, Cleo loses 3 and Joel gains 4 hours and 30 minutes.

Skizz still gets revenge on Bdubs so he gains 1:30 while Bdubs loses 3 hours.

At the end of session 2: Scott is at 22:30. Bdubs, Etho, Tango, Pearl and Martyn are at 19:30. Impulse and Grian are at 16:30. Joel is at 16:00. Cleo, BigB and Jimmy are at 13:30. Scar is at 10:30. Skizz is at 5:00.

Skizz still falls to his death in the skynet losing 3 hours.

Since both Jimmy and Scar are between 8 and 16 hours Scar can't kill Jimmy.

Scar can still kill Pearl which means Joel illegaly killing him immediately after still happens... Which of course means joel still fails his water bucket clutch.

Martyn still gets creepered costing him two lives and Impulse still boogey kills Pearl.

Early in the session Grian turns yellow which means Scar is robbed of the opportunity to do his triple kill. L.

Joel killing Martyn also can't happen with them both being yellow by that point of the session which means Martyn also never places the pufferfish that kills Grian.

Etho still gets destroyed by a creeper.

Without any kills Skizz runs out of time before the end of the session and is the first player out of the game.

By the end of session 3: Scott is at 20:00. Bdubs, Impulse and Tango are at 17:00. Martyn, Grian and Etho are at 14:00. Cleo, BigB and Jimmy are at 11:00. Joel is at 10:30. Pearl is at 8:00. Scar is at 5:00. Skizz is out.

Joel still accidentally kills Cleo and later purposely killing Tango.

Scott still lets Cleo kill him.

In this timeline Etho never kills Joel as he has more time then him, boat boys divorce never happens.

Tango still boogey kills Martyn to get rid of the curse and Grian still falls to his death.

By the time Martyn would have killed Bdubs they both would be yellow making that kill unlikely to happen.

Martyn still accidentally kills Scar (which is why certain kills still happen even if both parties are yellow.

Grian never does his triple kill as his target (Impulse) is already yellow at this point.

BigB still dies to the trap at his base.

Scott doesn't have to die as he naturally goes to yellow, same for Tango.

Pearl still dies to a creeper and Joel still falls from a ladder.

Scar runs out of time, he's the second player out.

At the end of session 4: Scott, Tango, Impulse and Bdubs are at 15:00. Etho is at 12:00. Jimmy and Grian are at 9:00. Cleo is at 7:30. Joel is at 7:00. Martyn and BigB are at 6:00. Pearl is at 3:00. Scar and Skizz are out.

Now this the story starts deviating more, in our timeline session 5 was a peaceful one with everyone being yellow... however with the changes made Cleo, Joel, Martyn, BigB and Pearl are all red lives so I doubt It's as peaceful.

Firstly Tango still kills Bdubs as a boogeyman and Joel still dies to a creeper. Bdubs also still dies to Etho's tnt catch game.

Skizz never gets to push Martyn to his death as Skizz is out of the game.

With Pearl and BigB so close to death It's unlikely they do nothing, I can see them trying to targeting Jimmy or Bdubs. With Bdubs dying so much earlier he goes to red meaning Jimmy is the victim, possibly when isolated. I doubt Jimmy can defeat Pearl so Pearl ends up killing Jimmy.

Session 5 ends with: Tango at 16:00. Scott and Impulse at 13:00. Etho is at 10:00. Grian is at 7:00. Cleo at 5:30. Bdubs, Martyn, BigB and Jimmy are at 4:00. Pearl at 2:30. Joel at 2:00. Scar and Skizz are out.

Joel and Jimmy still fail their bucket clutch, Joel is out of the game and Jimmy and Grian are the last bad boys left.

Pearl can't be the boogieman as she's red so It's *rolls random generator* Etho.

Grian also still pushes the button killing permanently both Jimmy and Pearl (Lizzie). The fandom makes it much more tragic then it is. (He also gets time as he's red)

Many death related to the bad boys never happen as only Grian is left.

Scar never kills Etho but Etho still dies to his own trap so.

Pearl never boogie kills Grian.

Cleo (Gem) still kills Etho but I doubt she does so twice like in canon. Martyn still drops tnt on Impulse.

Tango still dies when escaping from Grian (which was counted as a kill) and is later still killed by Martyn twice only to get killed by a skeleton.

Etho doesn't get a boogey kill but he also doesn't need to as he goes red during the session.

By the end of session 6: Scott is at 11:00. Grian is at 9:30. Impulse is at 8:00. Cleo and Martyn are at 5:00. Tango, Bdubs, BigB and Etho are at 2:00. Jimmy, Pearl, Joel, Scar and Skizz are out.

I can see Cleo and the mean gills working together. I can see Grian and BigB doing the same.

When it comes to the boogieman... Joel can't be boogeyman and since there can't be scaling...*rolls random generator* Scott.

Since The Bad Boys are gone Grian never climbs and then fall from the ladders.

Scott can't ask Scar to kill him to remove the target on his back so I think he just asks Etho directly... He doesn't have to ask anyone else since this puts him on red.

Even without the bad boys Grian gets desperate and kills Etho getting killed by Scott in the process. Unlike our timeline this is a boogie kill.

Grian still drops tnt on Impulse, Scott, Tango and Etho. Tango and Etho are out of the game.

Impulse still dies to the enderpearl and later later killed by Scott who doesn't particularly want to risk being a target again and likely has someone else kill him... likely Martyn. Impulse is out of the game.

Cleo and Bdubs are then killed by tnt dropped by Grian and run out of time.

BigB runs out of time.

Session 7 ends with: Grian at 8:30. Scott at 7:30. Martyn at 4:30. BigB, Bdubs, Cleo, Impulse, Etho, Tango, Jimmy, Pearl, Joel, Scar and Skizz are out.

With 3 players left Martyn surprises everyone and takes the others out, Scott lets himself be killed and Grian is not good at dealing with unexpected danger. Scott is third, Grian is second.

And Limited Life will always be won by Mars.

Staring contests are surprisingly common on Hermitcraft, and because of this they have a few rules that come with them.

First off, Keralis is banned, since his eyes can’t physically close and looking into his eyes for extended periods of time is a bad idea anyway.

Second, Etho isn’t banned, but he’s on thin ice. The Hermits are still trying to figure out if he can just go awhile without blinking, or if blinking is completely optional for him.

Third, Grian was previously banned but is now allowed to participate again. This has nothing to do with his ability to blink, but instead because he kept cheating by kicking his opponent. If he gets caught doing it again to anyone who isn’t Scar he’ll be banned again.

It isn’t a rule, but Wels can’t participate. It’s a little bit hard to have a staring contest when you’re a mannequin that doesn’t have eyes. He is very upset by this. Also, despite only having one organic eye, Doc can participate.

Once season 10 started Joe was almost temporarily banned from staring contests, since he was a muppet and his eyes were presumably made of plastic. But for staring contests he always covers his eyes with his hands whenever he would reasonably be blinking, so he is free to have as many staring contests as he wants.

Whenever Imp and Skizz have staring contests with each other, they somehow always end up tying.

While I get people's desire to draw parallels within the final four of Secret Life, I really feel like a lot of fanon attempts to juxtapose Gem killing Scott with Scar sparing Pearl are unfair to either Gem or Scott.

I see people imply that either Scott or Gem did something wrong in some way- either Scott unfairly pressured Gem into killing him or Gem devalued her ally by agreeing- and attribute this as the reason they lost in the end while Scar and Pearl- Pearl being 'less pushy' and Scar 'caring more' about his allies- won. The thesis seems to be that Gem made the 'wrong' choice, Scar made the 'right' one, and that's why Scar won over Gem.

Which. No.

The truth is that there was no 'choice' to be made.

At the point where Gem killed Scott, both Pearl and Scar individually had more hearts than Gem and Scott did combined (this is not an exaggeration. gem had 6 hearts, scott had 2.5, pearl had 15, and scar had 17), Scott was an easy one-shot for whoever took the first swing at him, and he had no way to regenerate health at that point. Scar chose to spare Pearl, yes, but Gem didn't "choose" to kill Scott, there was no real choice in the matter. Scott was, practically, already dead, and Gem was close enough if she didn't take the final swing (honestly, even the hearts from scott probably never would have been enough to save her).

I've said this before, but I genuinely believe that Gem and The Scotts were doomed, probably starting from the fight with Grian (who took a frankly shocking amount of health from them all things considered). That fight just spread them too thin, took too much of their health. Impulse died shortly after, and what health Gem and Scott did have was whittled away fighting a team twice their size. Gem and The Scotts were a powerful and competent team with ample resources, but they took a hit the mechanics of the game wouldn't let them recover from, and everything from that point was them desperately fighting against the odds trying to get one of them to the end, even if they must have known how bleak those odds were.

People have called it poetic. 'Gem lost because she didn't value her ally enough, Gem ironically died to a 2v1 after killing the one who would have fought beside her, funny that she's so bitter about the 2v1 when she 'chose' to kill her teammate while Scott didn't, etc. '

And it drives me insane because Gem didn't choose to kill Scott out of some callous desire for an advantage, Gem killed Scott because the latter half of their finale was a slow steadily worsening case study in helplessness and Scott gave Gem everything as an act of love, in the desperate hope that she could find a way despite the odds, (only for it all to be wasted, because it was two against one, and they didn't give gem the chance, and of course that left her bitter)

I'm just so insane about this.

i have so many thoughts about the tommy song/video and theyre a jumbled mess. i wouldnt call this an analysis this is just. most of my thoughts surrounding the video and what it shows about tommy

one of the things that stuck out to me (outside of how depressing and just like. is this guy okay) is something that ive always respected tommy for because he's always stuck with it and its his like. fervent conviction in people doing things theyre passionate about. thats always been one of the things he talks about all the time!!!

when AI started appearing he was talking about death of creativity, with the internet he's always talking about how the real tragedy is the algorithm killing people's passion by driving them with views and money, and even when he talks about youtube itself, and nowadays standup, its so full of passion.

and i think thats really important because it would be extremely easy for someone like tommy, who's in the process of maturing his online image from a very loud, immature and PASSIONATE persona, to make fun of it. it would be so easy to do like so many other creators and laugh at how "cringe" it was and make a quick cash/attention grab with a funny clip of him laughing at himself. but he never has. well don't get me wrong he's laughed at himself or old videos but it's always just. good natured taking the piss out of himself, it's never this like. mocking your younger self who was so excited to do what they did only because now its "cringe".

not only is he constantly giving that advice to other people (its been years of him replying, to any kid in his chat or donations asking advice on how to be a creator etc, "just go and do it if you love it!!"), he's coherent with how he applies it to himself. he realised he was making cash grab tiktok react vids and hated it so much he just stopped uploading for a while.

i dont know i just think there's something admirable about being able to still be sincere in a time where everything especially online has to be processed through a layer of irony. and its even funnier because he's more sincere THROUGH the irony i mean he's literally going into standup.

letting yourself create something that "means" something is fucking hard especially when half the internet still sees you as a kid who screams around. except the thing is that kid DID make stuff that mattered and that meant something because he was, in his own words, having fun.

i think thats what the format of the video was about too. i mean i think it was pretty clearly not a song thats meant to be streamed, its not purely music, its also a video because tommy is also first and foremost an editor who went to film college. its also not a "comedy" song like he's made some before, because those were all intentionally created to land as many jokes and make a big buzz— which doesnt mean they were bad! im philza is a contemporary lyrical masterpiece. but they had a specific purpose and it was to make people laugh and i think this video was completely like. opposite of what peoples expectations are of tommy. the "wow hes not a child anymore hes being mature🤓" reactions are the most obvious aspect of this (which, like, its been a while, get with the program).

i think the point of this was to make something that genuinely meant something but that was also like. as unpalatable to the algorithm and to the TommyInnit Viewer as possible. even now that he's gone into making quieter, more reflective videos, we've never had the flashing texts and the projector images and just all of that. hes always talking about how he hates the way the "youtube formula" has dictated the course of content and stolen all creativity for youtubers. its not meant to be a YouTube Video tm. its just meant to mean something to someone, and obviously process some sort of personal emotions, and i just think thats. yeah. yeah

i mean he even says so outright. "this needless, self indulgent spiral of self gratification" is pretty damn explicit. its not meant to be funny content its really a cry for help or for just. anything at all really

it was also a lot about perception, yknow the "entertainer" dilemma, "its all attention porn"... theres a layer of this point thats universal, everyone struggles with how they're perceived and i think any "artist" or "entertainer" figure can see themselves in it, but there's also a layer thats completely impermeable to most of us because it touches upon the sheer absurdity of a "youtuber". especially one of tommy's popularity. especially one who blew up so so fast so young. i honestly think its IMPOSSIBLE to process that. its about the ethics of having millions of people's time so readily available to you if you just press the right buttons to make the algorithm happy and then you've got them. im like 75% sure i remember him saying this on stream once, something like "your time is valuable" and if a fan didnt value him as an entertainer they should drop him.

and even here^ thats the saddest "lmao" ive seen in my life SORRY LOL but its really just. yeah im not gonna repeat myself it speaks for itself. perception and internet expectations and all that

one of the other images that stuck out to me was also this:

"yeah i know its too much like bo burnham but it wont be in a year though. in a year it will be like tom simons. just let me figure out what that means, ok?"

a lot of the video is about. influences and inspirations. the bo burnham references are so obvious he's poking at them, but i think he's raising a good point about the creativity that he's constantly praising. its never something that springs up on its own, its all about looking at others work and making it your own and feeding yourself with all those experiences and slowly, surely building your own way of doing things (tommyinnit "minecraft talent show" and "a tribute to dream smp" serial quackity + schlatt impersonator would know all about that) ->

and its daunting! its fucking scary to move away from that! which is also the main vibe i got from the video which, outside of his own issues with how he's perceived online, was the sort of existential dread that comes with actually creating. its one thing to preach you need to be passionate and create, its another to sit down and create something thats BY you. its a part of growing up! and we're literally seeing him do it live (well the bits that he chooses to show obviously)! thats also part of why i think tommy's so relatable to so many people is that he's so like. honest and real about what it's like to grow up, simple as that, and growing into yourself.

"this was everything to me" and using the picture of his younger self... man. theres obviously so much sadness underlying the whole thing but i think the nostalgia and melancholy in mourning being someone who was only inspired/excited by your interests and role models is universal. and obviously for tommy a lot of those influences turned out. well i think it was pretty damn clear who/what he was referring to here. ->

i don't think i need to go too in detail about that, especially cause a lot of the video was clearly a way to process his own personal emotions. especially with those next few images. i just hope he's okay and that god doubles his pain and gives it to mr beast to quote my friend bronzetomatoes. man.

of course he had to end with a funny clip about a hot anime girl and i think that kinda. sums it all up in a way. if that makes sense. at the end of the day its about the fact that he has to use humour to make the thing work when its out in the open, even when he tries not to and to be actually honest, but theres also the fact that hes literally a comedian and creating something "honest" IS through humor. its kindof a double edged sword

right well that was my jumbled mess of psychoanalysing tommyinnit i hope he is alright and all that because well that was. something

another plurality wildcard for your collection: people get randomly assigned into duos (outside of their alliances) and one piggybacks on the other. they can change who's walking and who's piggybacking but they cannot escape each other. person on piggyback is harder to reach in pvp but cannot hit other players; person walking can control where both of them go and can pvp, but is more likely to get hit. it would be so unbalanced but so funny...

It WOULD be unbalanced, but that's also the average plural experience, so

we usually think of mood as a scale from 1-5, but there's actually a negative scale too, where the frown turns back into a smile, but just a little insane !

I know we're all thinking about celestial symbolism for joel rn, so despite the fact that i think it would be very funny if we all just used the fucking car itself, i propose "The Chariot(eer)", a constellation known as Auriga, which is latin for chariot(eer), because it fits both the car and the celestial theme.

Bonus points: it's right by the Gemini constellation, and it's biggest star is Capella, the goat.

Thought I should make a pinned post because from here on out it may be necessary.

Joel making an ad for travel to the esmp 1 ocean empire on HC season 10 means that in the timeline HC10 and Esmp 1 happen:

In the same universe

at the same time.

Since Esmp 2 is set 1000 years after esmp 1 this of course means that during the crossover the rift didn't connect two different universes but two version of the same universe but at different times and that esmp 2 happens 1000 years after Hermitcraft.
