HermitCraft 9 ep 7: Scar murder! Cubfan's Wordle Ghosts need a new home!

[@duskodair309]

Scar's murderous intent klaxon and inability to say goodnight are not crimes and need not be excused. They're both just very scar

[@Erkle64]

It'd be more Scar if he died a few times too.

[@_mels_]

Well he's never gonna make you cry with his inability to say goodbye. Sadly, Scar probably will absolutely both tell a lie AND hurt you, judging by the murderous intent

So glad to see the Wordles go to such a good and safe reserve. Most people think it's OK to just release them into the wild, but they're actually largely detrimental to local wildlife, so it warms my heart to see you go to such lengths to ensure they get to live out their lives in a suitable environment.

[@AtlasMays]

"Please excuse Scar's inability to say goodnight" lol

[@12u3ie]

I decided, at long last, to create a poem of my own devising from one of Joe's prompts. Memories in the Attic Up the pulled-down ladder we ascend To times begun and to times end Digging through boxes, items galore We’ve forgotten what was stored Underneath the roof of our home Old photographs, a garden gnome, And relics from eras long past our time Up that ladder we have climbed Not my best work, but I liked writing it, and isn't that what truly counts?

[@estherclawson6876]

Not too terrible actually. Better rhyming than some songs these days.

[@eloquentornot]

"Murderous intent klaxon" made me laugh! I love the storyline with the wordles, for a moment I thought you were going to leave them at the border and much later on reveal that they had broken the barrier to unleash 1.19, I wasn't expecting them to push it back right then! They look really good decorating your cave, and I love the copper bridge!

[@ca.b.92]

From Scar's Surprise Waxing Service (a surprise every time) we now are down to Scar's surprise Axing Service? Yes, please! Edit: You also see the Moiree Effect after the World border just got "pushed back" when there is no Wordle on the Word Bordle... It is just an effect because of the limitations in graphics and the repeating patterns of the world border.

[@carlosotavi0]

It was reported on the bug tracker some time ago: MC-225823.

[@TheKosstImogen]

Well while "sloop" is indeed a boat, to me it's now become a sort of portmanteau (portmantjoe?) for "slump" and "slouch". Ta!

Well it was a danger to the ecosystem, not much you can do about that

[@Auloh1]

I'm glad I discovered your channel, sir and I'm also glad you're taking such good care of your past Wordles. But I'm also a bit worried to be honest. You see, a Wordle is a bit of a capricious creature. They thrive in big groups (schools) among themselves, but they feel most threatened by other 5-letter words. Which is why they didn't do too well on Keralis' ATTIC above the DISCO or next to GHAST. They won't last long around STONE, so please take that into consideration. While they have no real issues with 6- or more letter words, they feel safest and most appeased enclosed in 4- or less letter words, like moss or tuff. And please, never store them in a CHEST! Thank you.

[@monatae9725]

this is the best explanation I've seen

[@RaineySkye]

This is brilliant.

[@cress7507]

Maybe put the wordles in the void in the end since they don’t like to be leaning to a wall (which is why they pushed the boarder a little bit), and crammed spaces at all.

[@emmdeekaysays173]

Now there's plenty of room for Keralis to find something else equally large and ridiculous in his Attic 6 months from now.

[@orvillekidder9901]

That sound when Scar talks, it may be a medical device running.

[@Oktobot12]

Sounds like a nebulizer, it sounds very familiar. Could be, but then again, maybe just a noisy humidifier hahaha

[@Erkle64]

It's clearly the murderous intent emanating from the darkness that is Scar's soul.

[@Oli.V]

I think it’s just a glitch in the recording, scar’s never had an issue with stuff like that getting picked up in his mic’s before

[@jlar1752]

You could make an Axolotle Shop. I don't know who would buy them, but you can be sure that whoever pays for them intends to give them a good home.

[@user-vk7qr9xb6g]

Hey Joe! Open a shop where you sell animals including axolotls. You can collect animals like pandas, dogs, cats, llamas, etc. This would be especially useful for hermits needing animals such as cats for farms. To keep them from de-spawning, you could name them with a name tag “Name” and specify to hermits if they want them renamed; just do so with another name tag. Personally I believe this would be an amazing business venture and a fun twist to the season as-well as produce content for hermits and yourself! (Would love to see this as a regular shop or possibly sort of a vending machine. Click a button and the animal pops out in a boat/minecart.) Keep up the good work!😁

[@coopersein776]

Amazing idea dude wish joe would see this

[@alysoffoxdale]

Wow, maybe Keralis needs to sweep his attic out more often, and that might have kept the Wordles from getting so dusty around the edges? ;) But yeah, in retrospect it was pretty obvious that they'd curl up like old posters... I really loved the -Wordle Border- -Word Bordello- World Bordle idea; so sad that didn't pan out! But at least this means you get to keep your Wordles a bit handier so they can be duly admired more often! It's a pity the accidental axolotl farm didn't happen in time to carry them over to the HHH ocean monument clearing...

[@novagrayvanelders2696]

Memories in the attic, Sing sweet song of pain, Whispered eerie lullabies, To keep the ghouls away. Do not open your eyes, When light shines not, Or the monsters will come and play.

I really like the world bordle. Once the border properly moves, the wordles would show where the border used to be, so folks know by sight whether they're in 1.18 or 1.19

[@devincrates]

"Memories in the Attic" There are memories in the attic Dusty and unused Of summer days, locked away Above the living room.

Dreams and hopes, Big plans booked, Safe from the weather.

I think its a great idea to have some kind of memorial marker along the world border, so that hermits and later downloaders of the world can see where it was come 1.19, but maybe inject the idea into a Hermitcraft meeting so someone else thinks its their idea if there is a danger it may break things :D

[@eveningshade9296]

I love the story these Wordles have gone through and I'm glad they found a great new home. And now to create a poem :) Memories in the Attic We store things in the spaces left over; in attics and in the spaces in between. We store toys from days that reside in the past. We store decorations from holidays that come to pass. Why not store memories that we want to last? Store them for a day that has not yet arrived, waiting to be seen.

[@abj136]

The best thing for axolotls is to put them in an enclosed ocean playground. Natural fish spawns to chase, add some bubble columns for frolicky fun.

[@MetricJester]

You could open a pet shop! You could have pet rocks, in various shades, with interesting names. Axolotls, fish in buckets, turtle eggs, chicken eggs, horses, pigs, goats. You could attach a feed and seed shop beside it, so people could feed their pets too!

We'll sit and discuss The things that happened to us And he'll leave me, still and static A memory in the attic.

[@stillinhere]

Loved the episode. Now inspired words from the prompt. The attic of memory is smaller and more disorganized than I used to think. As time presses in on the sides, I think it gets smaller. Concentrate and write down the good and keep hold of all of them as long as you can, because as it grows smaller, the darker it will get with what was mostly sad and bad.

[@nichekiesh1723]

Idea for the Axolotls - you could make a glow ink farm to fund your wordle-storage-idea-crossing-out efforts

posessed (GHOST REFERENCE) by the attic prompt. 'skillful and trembling, spindled limbs pushes away the webs the stale air pushes back. this house houses brown recluses this house henceforth holds no horrors. an exorcism with broken christmas lights hold their vigil in the attic, behind the hayloft door.'

[@UhOhItsDorian]

Memories in the Attic (a sonnet): In boxes long unopened lie the ghosts Preserved in calcite like the marbled saints Of ancestors we salvaged from the coast Clawed from their sedimentary restraints. I treasure still the intimacy shared Between the fragile spectacle and I In near two-hundred million years unbared I’d been the first to see, and death defy. Adult exhaustion gripped me as I spent Long hours squinting at the pebbled shore Where childhood eyes (collecting dust) had leant Their spark to spotting treasures by the score. The one I found today is small and gold And sweetens still the memory I hold. (Today I went fossil hunting on a beach I haven’t been to since I was a child. From that first trip, I brought back dozens of ammonites in fragile clay, which now live in a box in the attic, largely unappreciated since, but utterly magical to have collected myself then. Today, out in the wind and rain, I only found a couple, but one was tiny and pyrite, both more durable and more exquisitely preserved than any I’d collected on that first trip. I’d been losing faith that I’d forgotten how to see them.)

[@chaoswarriorbr]

Wordle Bordle is a thing you need to be careful. My first thought was a nice lucious cave of worldling axolotls, good thing that might come true. I think the little guys need names like Wordle Guardians or Warriors or Avengers. You can breed them, name and make all sorts of fun activities(farms).

"Memories in the Attic" I do not have an attic. I am living now, back in my childhood home; Filled to the roof with memories and with no extra space to store them in - no room to make new ones. All of who I have been threatens to suppress all of who I could be. I wish I had an attic, a place out of the way and out of sight, where I could put the baby books and school pictures and Christmas ornaments and memories made physical. I need space now for the household supplies I accumulated while living away - the broom and the cool shower curtain and the good paring knife - and for the dream that I can't give up on of needing it all again. I need an attic. But if I had one, I know that it would contain (constrain) the household supplies and my dreams, not the baby books and other momentos of a person who no longer fully exists.

For the prompt, I return: The attic’s dusty, it’s floor brittle, not worthy to be walked on. Decor shoved in every aspect of the space it provides. Memories long forgotten and abandoned by the ones who said they’d remember. I remember, though. The ladder worries me, but one day I’ll traverse my fears for the return of my memories, safe to me.
