The pit of cakes do not count because they were not wasted, and the big cake counts as 1 cake because it was built to be that way! FINISHED! DONE! SHUT UP!

[@Xylorunsyou]

Actually, I believe the pit of cakes should be counted because It never showed us that they ate it or did something with it which is a waste.

I did the math and red was one block short of spending 4 stacks of iron blocks on this. Not including the crazy contraptions he built. Not including any other iron costs. Just the iron needed for the cakes.

[@Emeralds60601]

Edit: didn't account for the cakes generated by the gimmick staff. That combined with the mega cake made by the bovinotaur and the other creatures means that Red actually spent 123 fewer iron blocks on this than I thought, meaning that in just cakes Red spent 2 stacks of iron blocks plus 4 blocks, or 132 blocks of iron spent just on cakes alone.

Not at all. Contrary to popular belief, cows do not experience discomfort or pain while they are milked, exactly like how human mothers do not experience discomfort or pain while they breastfeed their babies. In fact, a cow that is lactating gets very stressed and painfully engorged if their udder isn’t drained consistently. If a cow isn’t milked artificially or suckled dry by a calf naturally, they can develop deadly problems.

MAX LEVEL OF "Cake-waste" REACHED

[@CapnSudz]

The giant cake may have only been '1 cake', but do we have a count on the number of buckets of milk and eggs and sugar and wheat that made that cake that we may approximate how much cake that cake could have counted for as individual cakes? And I was so tempted to make a Your Mom joke ... But I refrain.

[@TheSoftwareNerd]

YOU KNOW WHO ELSE CAN COUNT THE NUMBER OF CAKES?

[@CapnSudz]

​@@TheSoftwareNerd Fine. Assumption: Based on Frame by frame, there are approximately 2.5 Milk Buckets shot from cow ninja per frame. Assumption: All four Alivened Cake ninjas perform their actions simultaneously (just shot from four angles for dramatic effect and spliced separately) Assumption: Counting frames starts with the Cake Ninjas starting their task when Cow Ninja Starts (simultaneously remember...) all the way to when the giant cake begins falling at 7:48 of original video, I count about 210 frames of cake creation Therefore: With the frames I counted and cake creation estimation of -- 175 Additional cakes worth of cake wasted. Ah, but this counts cake creation as -- 3 milk / cake If we instead assume that -- 1 magic ninja milk + 1 magic ninja egg + 1 magic ninja wheat + 1 magic ninja sugar = 1 cake, that brings our total up to 525 additional wasted cakes ... But I think I can do better. The Dimensions of the cake are roughly (as I estimate) -- 21 x 21 x 10 m or roughly 4410 m^3 of pure cake Minecraft's individual cake blocks are reported as 0.875 x 0.875 x 0.5 m or approximately 0.3828125 m^3 of cake Even with rough numbers and such, that should be about 11,520 cakes worth of cake thrown/dropped at Green in this singular cake. Naturally this would bring up the amount of cakes wasted to 11,775 cakes. So, I think the count was a little off. Forgive me for being overly analytical.

[@CapnSudz]

For the record, that should be about 11775 Eggs 23550 Sugar 35325 Wheat and Milk Almost as much as someone like your mother consumes daily

Considering that cake cannot be stacked in Java edition, limiting Red to about 36 cakes, this must mean the gang is playing in Bedrock edition where cake is stackable up to 64. And 255/64 is about 4 stacks of cake.

[@Markbly2]

So in this video stated that red wasted 255 cakes, but upon including the behind-the-scenes on 1:09, red actually wasted 19 more cakes, which sums up to 274 cakes. So red wasted 274 cakes, but how many did he make? 0:11 1:01 - 13 cakes 1:23 - *About* 42.5 x 18.6 cakes (790.5 to 791) from what i've counted So Red *probably* crafted a total of: 1079 cakes
