Double Life #1: Stuck Together Forever

Double Life is an odd mix of a Social and PvP Minecraft game started by Grian. Players are thrown into a tiny world with almost no rules, except survive as long as possible.
In this version players have 3 lives that are linked to their soul bound partner which is chosen randomly at the start of the game. Red Players are given the goal of killing all the other players in the game.

Etho also completely stopped moving, and made sure everything was on camera for the audience, then waited patiently for a second before laughing, you could just hear the grin spreading across ethos' face. and i think he stopped mouse-wheeling through his hotbar as well. basically, for that moment he turned into a cameraman.

Etho did get partnered up with Bdubs. Did you see how upset he was when he found out Bdubs had already hooked up with Impulse? lmao he was so jealous Seriously though, I love the Ethel duo.
