Open Mic Night! :: Hermitcraft S9

[@AvenRox]

The open mic night was amazing, loved the tango height ribbing, loved Scar's poetry, Grian's pun....omg.

[@gromlek8327]

was watching Tango's stream when he walked in there. He absolutly lost it when he saw Bdubs peeking over the counter. Was spontanius and hillarius.

[@Haplo-san]

Hermit interactions are always fun to watch. When there is no interaction, I usually I put the speed 1.5x.

[@tumblingartist]

It’s great watching the Hermits spending time together- the vibes of them together is always so fun

[@lil_trout7089]

We need JoeHills to present beautiful poetry next time.

[@synniestar]

i'm so enjoying the amount of hermits showing up in each others' videos lately! and that was a fire impression of a five year old with a beard!

After literal YEARS, of Bdubs yelling at me on stream for my crappy puns, I AM LIVID/PROUD that he has finally embraced the pun as the supreme form of comedy that it is. Welcome Bdubs! I knew you'd come around! NADE OUT!!!!!

[@marniejane11]

Tango's reaction when he walked in and saw BDubs behind the counter was HILARIOUS! 🤣 The coffee shops looks awesome, BDubs!

[@wasabicat9400]

18:00 for anyone wanting to hear Tango's laugh on repeat

[@howester8446]

[@ShayBowskill]

"Are your stream numbers dropping?" "Yeah, I think I'm gonna go dig sand for a few hours" Funnier than any of the jokes

[@NZArchie]

During Tango's stream the other day I stopped playing Minecraft to watch what was happening in your Open Mic live. While you were making Scar's mud cakes, I could hear a coffee machine percolating and I thought "Hey that's cool. I wonder how they did that" Turns out the coffee machine noise was coming from MY game... Did you know, Drowned sound like a Coffee Machine?

[@FerniForest]

That's incrediblely amazing XD

[@cortgseries]

I laughed so hard at the 5 year old beard impression. I don't know if it was the out-of-left-field nature of it or the awkward silence, but it got me good.

[@Joseph-lx5js]

it’s just a genuinely funny character

[@user-xv1cs9mm9d]

its like some advanced anti joke or something lmfao

[@JoelNitsch]

It’s from a Zach Galifinakis standup special. I think it’s on Netflix if I remember correctly. BDubs nailed the delivery though!

[@chad7129]

Definitely got more funnier the longer the silence lasted

[@taytaythehufflepuff8532]

Thought it was funny too, while the rest of my family was baffled. I thought it was more funny for nonsense’s sake, and the fact that Bdubs just went for it despite how stupid it was made the whole thing amazing. I need to see this kind of boldness from all of them (after watching Grian’s video, and the amount of shame he had towards his impromptu puppet show… it was amazing and he ought to accept that the strange, weird, and wacky is why we watch the streams). Stupid bold actions, especially jokes, are too funny, especially when the awkward silences last.

[@julijan2653]

You guys should have open mic nights more often, that was awesome!

[@ExcaliburPaladin]

Nah, too often would make them run out of bad jokes so they start telling good ones

[@Umega101]

@@ExcaliburPaladin ^ This. Too often waters it down, but they should definitely have another one or two more with more hermits in the future. OR they should definitely have a roast night and playfully roast each other (specifically Bdubs height)

[@olencone4005]

A little side-room to bring back Stat Poker in the coffee shop would be great too ^_^

[@howester8446]

Totally Agree. I loved that segment. Forced comedy is the best kind of comedy lol.

[@alicesmith2636]

"not compensating for anything tower" wow the Hermits are really letting us see another side of themselves recently, with Scar's axolotl/MCC stuff and now this

Hey Bdubs, why not hide in Scars “secret moss project” and see how long it takes for him to find you: I say 10 years

[@violetopal6264]

Hide a moss-head there like an Easter egg. Maybe with a skulk sensor record (Tangos prank) so when come close it says hi?

[@NinjabiXL]

I’m loving how much hermits have been popping up. Proximity is a game changer. Season 8 was wonderful but too fast. The casual way you guys fly up to each other and hang, esp in Tango’s stream. It’s so fun to be part

With two dirt, a gold farm, and a piglin bartering station; you get infinite dirt. It’s like Grian’s two pumpkins turns into a beacon thing, but bigger. Lol

[@DahliaInPurple]

But how time efficient is that compared to instamining more dirt, probably from a place you need to clear out anyway? (I guess it depends on how absurd the farms are)

@@DahliaInPurple yeah, the crafting, placing, shoveling loop seems a little tedious for dirt...but to each their own

[@xynthymr]

Two things I would change: 1) I would just put Camp Fires across the floor behind the counter, so that the whole behind counter area is raised by half a block. 2) I would keep the Terracotta shop just for show, and have a secret basic mass farm hidden below it where it can be farmed more efficiently in bulk

[@qaday123]

Psh, Bdubs is so tall, there’s 100% no need for any extra space behind the counter. The footstool’s just enough for a lengthy fellow like him to access the totally-taller-than-an-average-person machine.

So much joy, I'm so happy ❤️ everything you do is a masterpiece! From your building, to your timing and interaction with everyone and everything. Just wow ✨

[@TheOneBored]

honestly the most impressive thing to me is BDubs extending Jevin's crater under the bridge. taking another players build that seems out of place and instead of just leaving it separate like most would, he took the time to add just enough to blend it in and make it seem more dynamic with the environment and fit in better. idk normally people ignore the clashing aesthetic of the build next to them, but he accepted it and made it seem like their builds belong next to eachother

[@ryanreklaw]

I was kinda bummed when BDubs first built this last episode and it went out over the road and kind of hid Joes shop... but I should not have doubted BDubs magic in the least... what he did with the bridge and extending Jevins crater leaving a good straight road to Joes is *Chefs kiss... like GeminiTay says... 'trust the process'

Rather than turning gravel into dirt, you should turn moss into dirt by growing 2x2 spruce trees on it. Much faster and cheaper.

[@malliredeemed1772]

BDubs is surely in the running for this season’s richest hermit!!! You are selling all the things!! I think you should highlight that your shops are organic...farm to table/barrel. Anyone can dig up terracotta, but you offer the full experience...that’s something special. In all seriousness, this shop reminds me of shops you can find in Lancaster County, PA...where it’s a homey feel with food, drink and art/furniture/etc. You have an opportunity to see, taste,etc all of these treasures and take in the process of the creation. You’ve done a great job of making the interior as welcoming as the exterior. Well done. Lastly, I scolded your modchild, blue, for meme screaming at you on the twitters. Please forgive him and return to off camry. /hj

How to make dirt generator :- You can make stone from lava and water, then bonemeal moss next to it to turn stone to moss block. place azalea tree and bonemeal it to get rotted dirt. That way you can get unlimited dirt!

[@stars4roryy]

Gotta love the bdubs sponser segments, i dont know how he comes up with new ideas each time

[@nthoozeastic960]

Hey Bdubz, loving the content as usual. Quick suggestion for the shop. As you likely know, you can make a lava generator that works just like your clay dryer. Put a lava source block over a drip stone block with a pointed drip stone under. This assembly will drip lava that can be collected in a cauldron and then a bucket. This would fit in nicely and give you endless fuel for the furnaces in there. Cheers

[@gruchogaemer8692]

The coffee shop honestly has my favorite aesthetic of any shop this season. Killing it with the interiors as always!!

[@KathyClysm]

Instead of selling terracotta, maybe switch that barrel to the packed mud bricks? A shop for selling 1.19 mud products so to speak. Plus, you can sell those bricks for a higher price as they require more crafting, AND Etho loves them (but hates crafting them) so he'll probably buy you out within a day :D eeeeeeasy money

[@jasonpatterson8091]

For dirt --> coarse dirt --> dirt (which is amazing for skyblock but less so for the regular game) I find it faster to make a huge tower of coarse dirt and then use a shovel with left and right click held down. Right click activates first, turning it into a path block, then when you dig it up you get dirt, and one tool does the job.

[@fiddleriddlediddlediddle]

What I think is super interesting is how Bdubs shades things, like the mud spraypaint. What is interesting to me isn't the shading itself, but how it wouldn't have mattered whatsoever if people couldn't fly. Because players fly into town now, however, each block is small and functions almost like a pixel and suddenly it becomes useful to shade like that.

You can make a fully automatic dirt/oak wood farm using moss blocks/azalea bushes. It's not terribly fast for dirt, but as it can run unattended you can just set it up underneath your shop and - with some luck - it'll keep you stocked with dirt for the shop. Should get a lot of oak wood on the side as well.
