- Translated the recent changes to the west wing that I liked, and applied them to the north wing, and east wing.
- Took a stab at designing a console area in the outer elevator room of the North wing to finish up that wing.
- The North wing currently has a different floor design in the observation deck.
- Revamping The North Wing Level 3
- Revamping The East Wing Level 3
- Took a stab at designing a console area in the outer elevator room of the North wing to finish up that wing.
- Installed the multi-story, mid-section windows around all four sections of the command center.
- Trying to decide between purple “energy railing” and light blue.
- Installing The Mid Section Windows – Part 1
- Installing The Mid Section Windows – Part 2
- Still no real design progress on the exterior design of the mid section other than tearing out a bunch of stuff that wasn’t working.
- Level 4 may need some progress beyond the rough framing before the mid-setion exteriors will come together.
- To get designs A, B, and C to flow sometimes A, and C need to get sorted before solving B.
- Level 4 may need some progress beyond the rough framing before the mid-setion exteriors will come together.

- Finally half way through the final dig of the copper aging beacon mine, and looking forward to getting some redstone started.
- MCC: Hermit Takeover
- Was invited to join the Cyan Coyotes team in the Hermit Takeover of MCC with GoodTimesWithScar, iJevin, and Turbo.
- Cyan Coyotes placed 3rd over all thanks to good placement in the Ace Race, and Grid Runners events.
- Going in with very little experience was fun at some points, but frustrating in others. Build Mart in particular was a struggle, especially as someone that likes building.
- Some events used maps from previous seasons of Hermitcraft as PvP environments, and parkour courses, with other areas having fun little Hermitcraft references.
- The Hermitcraft Gamers Outreach fundraising weekend ended up raising over $1.1 million, with some funds still yet to be added to that total from the auction, which is as of this podcast, still on going.

SUBJECT: Sulfur Cubes In The MCC
Hey Joel and Pixlriffs! I recently started listening to your podcast, and it is swiftly becoming a big part of my time. I love listening to your opinion on ideas that other people have come up with, so I decided to give it a go myself.
At the time I’m writing this, it’s four days until the MCC Hermit Takeover event. The Chaos Cubed Drop is also in development, and seeing as Sulfur Cubes are completely passive mobs that seem to be intended for use in games, and other fun activities, I was wondering if the MCC might make a new game featuring this mob. Of course, this game would not be used in MCC HT, as the games have already been announced, but possibly in another MCC in the future. I would love to hear your thoughts on this. What kind of game would you expect? Maybe something where you have to hit sulfur cubes into holes to get varying amounts of points, almost like a bean bag toss? Maybe a race or soccer (football) game like the ones that were featured in the Deep Dig of the recent Minecraft Live? Any opinions would be appreciated!
TrueCaviar died because he got distracted watching Youtubers bully cute little cubes for points.
Thanks to our top patrons!
