Let's Play Minecraft: Ep. 101 - Ice Cube

[@DrBreakfastMachine]

I love how quickly they go from making fun of Ryan to being incredibly concerned about his son as soon as he tells them what he says every night

[@Invader_Rin13]

I think it was more like they were making fun of how Gavin was surprised about Ryan loving his son enough to rub his back to get him to sleep.

[@Alliewolf-nk1wi]

Ray: Why do I kill?! Michael: Ryan asks himself that everyday. Ryan: No I know why. Michael: ehh I guess we ask him that everyday.

[@Accrylicc]

11:40 is where Ryan talks about his son, for those curious.

[@alexmath1579]

Oof

Yikes! that didn't age well.

[@cammandorkeyes]

[@xxMaro92xx]

they are both still in the air

[@CIaude]

Ryan's kid is in the hole with Edgar. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

[@moonsmask2739]

That was fantastic

[@zynoveousprime118]

Damn right he is.

[@Dreamcass]

2:05 Geoff: ...Gavin has no advantage. Just so you know so he's a fair competitor just like everybody else. Jack: I wouldn't say fair. Ryan: I wouldn't say competitor.

[@sboy9700]

Thank you for the statistics!

[@plugogplugplug4880]

Wow 6 years later and many desperate attempts to have anything playable in Minecraft, I’d love to see the new stats or be as excited and let down as I was for episode 100.

Finally, someone has done it! I was probably gonna do it, but now I don't have to. Thank You!

[@GreenPaintz]

Holy crap you took all that time to watch every win/lose! Props man.

[@5djbad]

or you could have gone to the roosterteeth subreddit and find all the statistics there

[@titanscj2k542]

Wipeout part 1 was just a practice round so I wouldn't count it.

[@gamingdwarf3519]

Actually Ray has still won it the most

[@emilymiller1072]

I imagine Ryan is the least scary thing that happens in his house. And that is terrifying.

[@ForgottenSon_]

+Emily Miller man, that's saying something

[@emilymiller1072]

My heart skipped a beat when I saw the words "Ice cube"

[@MyNameIsNotSteve]

Why?

[@jessirose]

I love the comfort that these older videos provide, I just.. can't.

[@thephilliproom]

same man :( especially the gta IV and the misc games they played like madden league and wow

[@97ShadowDark]

The new videos are just different I remember back when this let’s play came out I would always watch minecraft let’s play every Friday wouldn’t miss an episode now I haven’t watched a MC let’s play in like 2 months I think it’s because the OGs arent there anymore or not there as much

[@justsomeguy6336]

@@97ShadowDark it’s because everyone new is so childish and dumb.

[@kangaroodude34]

I'm so glad they did the tower placement on Ray's desk at the end, they've been slacking with that lately

[@TrisketsCheese]

I have to admit, this was well worth the wait. I can't wait for Ice Cube X.

[@Kakirax]

Now 10x bigger!

[@MrIreallydonotcare]

now the whole world out of ice, with only 8 gold blocks inside... Would remind me of the fuel lets play

[@Kakirax]

***** Ice Cube XX: Whole world is ice, 4 gold ore (not the already smelted but the one you still have to smelt) inside and you have to find the cobblestone and coal to smelt the gold as well as find the pickaxe xD

[@9Zakarious6]

***** It would have to be 36 gold ore since each gold block needs 9 ingots.

[@Kakirax]

Zaka rious My maths aren't good on the weekend xD

[@shadowfoxx15]

Sneaky Ray was sneaky. Very good. : 3 Also glad to see we FINALLY get Ice Cube. Now, we just have to sit back and wait for King Gavin.

[@cmrobbins88]

We've gotten two things we've been waiting a while for. Ice Cube and someone who hasn't won the Tower of Pimps in a long time.

[@thravage27]

Yes! A great episode. And it filmed better than I expected, with how hard it is to see inside all of that ice.

[@xTGE]

70 episodes later, ice cube finally gets played :p

[@federicosaiegh8397]

With "Sleepy Ray" now gone, I think it's time for "Wins at everything Ray" to return!

[@cling1233]

Took forever to make, now they're finally playing it

[@FreelancerLA]

Gotta say, 70+ episodes of waiting for Ice Cube...well worth the the wait!

[@blancarenfro64]

I think this was one of the most anticipated Let's Plays on this channel. Now we wait for Storm the Tower, Lava Wall part 2 and that hole that they're not allowed to enter.

[@ImTimIsMe]

Im glad Ray said he was gonna start trying again.

[@zdf46]

I love how nonchalant ray is about winning, "I win, I did it"

[@bloodrunsclear]

Jack's demonic laugh XD

[@jorgeasaur2364]

I liked your commet dude

[@bloodrunsclear]

Jorgeasaur You're very kind. Sometimes I just like sharing my thoughts :)

[@philipchavis4868]

I liked your comment too.

[@JensLOLfunnies]

Ur commet wuz kewl

[@GreenPaintz]

what a nice post! Liked

[@johnny_barnes]

Ryan's story reminds of a Tumblr post I read about the messed up things kids say about their imaginary friends. Really good deterrent for having kids.

[@Vanstrom336]

When Ryan talked about Gold being rare, I suddenly wanted Joel to run into the room and give his speech about gold.

[@RileyWhittakerMusic1]

It's ironic that his dry streak ended after playing ice cube.

[@PY11235]

Is it?

[@DOSTalks]

Pretty sure it's the opposite of ironic. Ice cubes are wet. Wet ends a dry period. Seems appropriate

[@TheMoskas100]

A years worth of building for a 30min let's play...deary me.

[@cheefmahogany]

next episode ice cube X

[@user-vj3rg2jo9b]

And with the 8.5 minutes of setup in the beginning and minute of placing the tower at the end it was only 20 minutes of actually playing lmao

[@PrankingLeagueGaming]

Lets be honest, we've been waiting for this longer than the 100th episode haha :)

[@alexraiden277]

Absolutely ^

[@rockphish93]

100 could have been this

[@colbykinser1106]

In the 100th episode when they said it took them over a year a thought they were going to play ice cube

[@Milo1Cosplay]

I like their new office it's really nice!!I'm happy that Ray won.

[@harelchen]

Why would you spoil something so obvious?! :D

[@haranara7378]

Jared Obree It's your fault for looking at the comments before watching the video dumbass

[@harelchen]

Yeah I know. It's just out of habit that I always scroll down.

[@Machati]

It isn't so much intentionally looking at the comments as much as my browser was big enough to be on the video and see this damnable comment. It's a fun journey to the spoiler however, so I suggest watching it even if you had it spoiled for you.

[@xsaver23]

A nice beginning to the next 100, Ice Cube finally and the return of Ray kicking ass!

[@awesomenessspencer]

He won the first tower of pimps and the hundred first tower of pimps

[@xDowneduxD]

Spencer Nelsen no not the hundred first tower. There has been at least 25 weeks without a tower of pimps..

[@awesomenessspencer]

Well shit.

[@awesomenessspencer]

I done goofed

[@Mikeyizbeast401]

I like how ice cube takes like over 5 lets build and only one lets play.

[@IggyVRam]

Fall damage is calculated at half a heart for every consecutive block after 3. A player at full health can survive a straight drop without feather-falling of a maximum height of 22 blocks (10 hearts times 2 half hearts plus initial 3 block drop minus 1 half heart). If a player jumps before falling, the total block height fall will be 23.

[@Alphris]

"Ugly the Cat" "Everyone in the apartment complex I lived in knew who Ugly was. Ugly was the resident tomcat. Ugly loved three things in this world: fighting, eating garbage, and, shall we say, love. The combination of these things combined with a life spent outside had their effect on Ugly. To start with, he had only one eye and where the other should have been was a hole. He was also missing his ear on the same side, his left foot appeared to have been badly broken at one time, and had healed at an unnatural angle, making him look like he was always turning the corner. Ugly would have been a dark gray tabby, striped type, except for the sores covering his head, neck, and even his shoulders. Every time someone saw Ugly there was the same reaction. “That’s one UGLY cat !” All the children were warned not to touch him, the adults threw rocks at him, hosed him down, squirted him when he tried to come in their homes, or shut his paws in the door when he would not leave. Ugly always had the same reaction. If you turned the hose on him, he would stand there, getting soaked until you gave up and quit. If you threw things at him, he would curl his lanky body around your feet in forgiveness. Whenever he spied children, he would come running, meowing frantically and bump his head against their hands, begging for their love. If you ever picked him up he would immediately begin suckling on your shirt, earrings, whatever he could find. One day Ugly shared his love with the neighbor’s dogs. They did not respond kindly, and Ugly was badly mauled. I tried to rush to his aid. By the time I got to where he was laying, it was apparent Ugly’s sad life was almost at an end. As I picked him up and tried to carry him home, I could hear him wheezing and gasping, and could feel him struggling. It must be hurting him terribly, I thought. Then I felt a familiar tugging, sucking sensation on my ear. Ugly, in so much pain, suffering and obviously dying, was trying to suckle my ear. I pulled him closer to me, and he bumped the palm of my hand with his head, then he turned his one golden eye towards me, and I could hear the distinct sound of purring. Even in the greatest pain, that ugly battled scarred cat was asking only for a little affection, perhaps some compassion. At that moment I thought Ugly was the most beautiful, loving creature I had ever seen. Never once did he try to bite or scratch me, try to get away from me, or struggle in any way. Ugly just looked up at me completely trusting in me to relieve his pain. Ugly died in my arms before I could get inside, but I sat and held him for a long time afterwards, thinking about how one scarred, deformed little stray could so alter my opinion about what it means to have true pureness of spirit, to love so totally and truly. Ugly taught me more about giving and compassion than a thousand books, lectures, or talk show specials ever could, and for that I will always be thankful. He had been scarred on the outside, but I was scarred on the inside, and it was time for me to move on and learn to love truly and deeply. To give my total to those I cared for. Many people want to be richer, more successful, well liked, beautiful, but for me…I will always try to be Ugly."
