Dude, that's pretty much it. That's like the only part of the video ever see is the guy's running with the bear. I want to see what like bear made it. I think if there was no bear, it never would have blown up. Do we see the bear in this? Oh, my. And they don't want to shoot them. They don't want to shoot them because they don't want us like us to know they're coming.

So it looks like they've tamed a bear. And the bear's just trying to kill them the whole time. Welcome back to another episode of the Flycast. We've got a very special episode. You heard us from the man himself We got Damon We got Carmel We got Damon in the building

We were thinking Matt Craig said Any any dads you want on the podcast So that you guys can talk about Dad stuff Or like ask him advice And I was like Damon's got two

I should have stepped off And then you could add hex here Love dad off So we've been talking about So anyway We've been talking about RuneScape For the past 30 minutes Well, how it started.

Y'all mentioned a different game, or y'all mentioned like Rust. And I was like, Russ. Yeah. That sounds so familiar. But in my head, I sat here for a second. I was like, no, I'm thinking about like Roonscape. Like, people have mentioned Roomscape to me before I've played World of Warcraft. And then I said it.

Adama was just like, yeah, it's all right. Like, I played a little bit. But then there's a, and then it's like a spark. A spark goes off to where the Rooscape nerd comes out. Well, there's like a, there's like a Rust server going on right now because Bert Peanut started. a Rust server. Yep.

And the only thing I know about Rust is that Rust was talking in Damon's ear like a demon during the Dynasty days. It was bad. It was chirping in his shoulder like a demon. What? You didn't want to practice?

You wanted to play Rust? Yeah. Is that what happened? We'd finish playing and I'd play Rust. Fuck. Was that the demise? I was like D-Gen. It was so bad.

No. No, because we won champs like and I was playing Rust all week and up to it. Dude, that happens. Same thing happened with Bruce. Bruce played Bruce played CS

like the whole week leading up to the first champs they won and then just won chance I feel like sometimes it can happen like that like when you're not I feel like sometimes you get two it's always the shitters

who try to put in like so much time and like study the game and they're just then you turn into over analyzing it you never give your brain a break you should know your limit

like there's definitely a limit yeah there's a point where like doing anything more at like Diminish in return. Yeah. I feel like that's with everything.

I've recently learned that saying, so I just thought I'd like, you know. Hey, you so smart as hell saying it out. I was like, shit, look this guy. Remember when you know when we would go to Columbus for our league matches? Yeah. I'd bring my computer and like play rest until our next league match when we were done. Would your teammates ever get mad at that?

I don't know. I was with Matt, so he probably didn't care. Who formal? Yeah, I was just sitting in the kitchen in our apartment. He doesn't give a fuck. I'm just fucking playing all night. I loved my loop. I love pixels.

why I don't play the game anymore. What do you mean? Oh, oh, you love pixels. Yeah, because, like,

you play Rust and like, I mean, dude, they can raid you at any time. So, like, if you go to bed. Do you,

so do you keep your phone on loud? Like, I have a good story for that. So, like, they can raise your base at any time. Yeah. So you just sign off and you disappear. No.

No. All your loot is. There. Oh. It was like, I used to, we used to have like a snap call. What's that?

So, like, it was like, you don't fucking call this call because like it's loud unless we're getting rated dude so good wait that's fucking sick good story so i got away with it for a while right without holly ever like noticing okay one night i'm i'm like dead like i'm not waking up right my phone starts ringing and my buddy eric is on the phone and it's like is carma wake

carma wake got away come up we're getting raid we're getting raid we're getting rid what holly did Holly answer? Yeah. Who the fuck is calling? Never did it again. And that's like at 5 a.m. She's like, why the fuck is someone calling you right now?

It's funny because Eric is, there's like this infamous Russ video with me and Eric and there's like bears coming with these guys to read us. Oh, I think I do remember that. Yeah. It's like, it's been like stolen. It's like World War III colorized.

Yeah. You put on your YouTube channel or he put on his? Yeah. Okay. Wait, can we find that? Eric, he didn't even do YouTube. Just uploaded, I think on YouTube alone, it had like a million views. Yeah.

Really? Yeah, I remember that. It's like, I'm on, like, a 40-hour, like, binger. We're just sitting on the roof, and he's like, he's just listening to, I don't know, some rap song. Yeah. Like, yo, Eric, and just high shit. Wait, how can we find that? I want to see Damon fully fucking rest.

Well, I think you just hear him. No, it's just like, yeah, it's just like we're sitting there and we're sitting on the roof because, like, we know this is. team's going to rate us. But we didn't think it was going to be like 40 people. And then it's like during that time and like you might even still see it now, it was like all over TikTok and shit. Because there's 40 guys like purple guys running at our base. But there's also a bear running with them. It's just like that's why it's like crazy popular.

Oh, I think I do remember that. Dude, I want to see this. Wait, it's called World War II Colorized. World War III colorized rust. Okay. You type it on YouTube, it'll be there. So do you play on your phone or your computer? Computer.

It's like a mouse and keyboard. Like, you got to be able to aim. So when you, it's 5 a.m., you get this call. Is it like you just get straight the fuck up? Oh, yeah. It's like you're a goddamn detective. I normally go to bed with my game open. So like I've already logged into the server.

Oh, my God. That, dude, this game had to have ruined families. World War III color eyes. There it is. There it is. How many years ago is that? Six years ago. One point.

There's me. There's me. He's looking at me. Yeah, you could skip though. We can't hear those. So y'all, there's a bunch of music and shit. It's nothing really. Do you know a raid is coming?

Well, somebody typed in chat. So this was like a main server. A snitch? This is like the sweat server. This was like 30, 40-man clans. Holy shit. Dude, that would be. So epic.

And how many of the, how many of you are? Call the snap. Call the snap. It's just me and Eric. Oh, shit. Because like prior to this, there's like another guy. We won't get into it, but there's another guy who's play with Max. He, like, made YouTube videos. And one of these clans, like, landed on our base, tried top down us with, like, 30, 40 people.

And we ended up winning. So they came, like, later that night. But we didn't think it was going to happen. Dude, that's pretty much it. That's like the only part of the video ever see is the guy's running with the bear. I want to see what like bear made it. I think if there was no bear, it never would have blown up. Do we see the bear in this?

Yeah. Oh my. And they don't want to shoot them. They don't want to shoot them because they don't want us like us to know they're coming. So it looks like they've tamed a bear. And the bear's just trying to kill them the whole time. But at this point they probably killed. Yeah, the bear's dead.

Dude, this is fucking epic. I didn't know this was like. how intense raids were. Yeah, well, like I said, I mean, the game from then to now is way different now. Like, I don't even know. This was like the sweat, the sweatiest shit. And now you're calling, what is it called? The Snapchat, like just Snapchat call.

You're calling the Snapchat call. And then do your friends just start spawning in trying to defend? Like, I've never got called on Snapchat other than for Russ, but like, dude, the noise is pretty fucking annoying. If you get a snap call, you're going to wake up. Is that why you used? Yeah, it was just like the best thing. Never called this snap. Unless it's 5 a.m.

Holly wakes up at 5 a.m. to a snap chat call. Never did it again. Never did it again. She definitely knew that like I did it though. Yeah. You never warned her like there might be one night. No, she definitely knew. But like she was, I mean, she was a slate.

Normally I would wake up to it. That is so quick. Yeah. We're getting rid. We're getting rid. I'm like, turn it off, walk upstairs, alone in the server, and go crazy. It looks like this is a pretty tame base. I mean, it was good for six years ago.

Oh, yeah. It's big. So, like, this, I mean, dude, I could go on for days with this. You're at the top right now. I thought this was it. This is Eric. This is the roof. Okay.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I go on for days. This is back when you could socket stack. So, like, when they tried rating us, like, ten hours before this, they landed on the roof, tried to blow straight down. It took, like, 200 rockets. They didn't even get to lift. And because you could socket stack

So there was like 8 HQM floors It was just crazy Like it was crazy So you respawn back in your bed Is that what happens? Yeah you respawn your bed And then

Once you respawn you have a timer on that bed Oh my God They're raiding Yeah This looks crazy See this would be fun But I feel like getting to this point Would take a lot of hours

Like streaming rest You can't do it Oh yeah Yeah You can't do it The experience is so different. Like that's a cool thing with like peanut server is like they're they're free from everything that Rust is.

Because they might get a little like you know they might get toxic with each other, but I feel like they all know each other. Yeah. Yeah. But it's like more freedom. Like you're not spawning up and dude like there's so much shit. You wake up and there's just kids climbing in your base, breaking your turrets, doing all this shit.

What was it? I've woke up before and one day I woke up. up logged into the server. I look at us on my base. No bullshit. A thousand watch towers. Someone just built a bunch of towers around like a thousand. So the frames went to like 20. I woke up. Me and Eric got on the server. It's like yo Eric get on. We need to shoot the rockets. We just despawn our base. Like it gets bad. That sounds so fun to troll. Oh yeah. I mean there's hellit trolley videos like on YouTube. So what was the

end result of that fight we just saw? I think like six people only got on out of like 30 and we held it for like an hour but but they lost it all they took it yeah that's crazy have you ever heard of the Minecraft server server 2b 2T you ever heard about it pretty sure dude I think I actually end up loading into it did you really I did I did I did you go on it no will went on it will went on it I saw that and then did I want to say maybe dude I'm I'm pretty sure last year I loaded into it. That's insane. That's crazy.

That's like risky to do. Yeah. What is it? 2B2T is an an anarchy server, which means it means there's no rules at all. And it's been around for like, what, 20 years? Yeah. It's been around found in December of 2010. So it's been around for.

You can cheat as in like mods. Yeah. You can hack. You have to. You have to cheat basically to like do anything. Look up. Can you look up to B2T. spawn so when you spawn in yeah the spawn is this is what the spawn looks like after 16 years of playing

like people go dude if you're ever bored and you want to like you don't like history like real history yeah like gaming history uh-huh this is where you go there's a guy who's been making he's been making two b2t videos and all he does is show the history of 2b2 t dude they're good videos yeah like Look at the spawn. That's what the spawn looks like. So if you spawn in, you can't get any items because there are no items to get. Yeah, so the hackers and shit, like the spawner, so like spawner, you normally like normal Minecraft, you spawn, you need food.

There's no food here. Yeah. So what do you do? You need wood. There's no wood. Even if you're a hacker. What do they call them? Are they lava caverns or something?

I have no idea. So basically they go and the hackers will just like dump a bajillion lava and like stone everything. That's why everything's stone. Yeah. Oh, yeah, so like they pour water all over.

Oh, yeah, they'll pour lava up top. So if you spawn in your- water the lava. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So that's why it's all stone. Yeah.

And it's like that for fucking miles. Like millions of blocks. And sometimes you'll spawn in and like there's 90 withers just running, just exploring. So how do you even like get past that? I don't know how to,

I don't know how to get past it. You can't have to get lucky. One, you can't stream it. You spawn in. You're a hacker. what's like some of the hacks you can you spawn in you're a hacker they literally anything you can think of nick yeah like a lot of x-ray they can spawn and just instantly fly yeah so like there's like dude

but can't you have like unlimited food i'm telling you can go in so i don't know i don't i don't you can you so the easiest way you can go buy through shops online like real money and get the cheaters to bring you like an elijah or elitra yeah is that the cape elitra yeah you got to They'll bring you pot. Yeah, like, pay like $2 and they'll get you started and you just fly away. And you hope you don't give, like, cheated on. That's someone's job. Apparently the world download is like 80 terabytes.

I think that's what it said. 80, 80, 80, 80, 80, 80. 80 terabytes. Because it's been a, it's been a world for so long. Dude, there's people that, like, will play it. And they'll just randomly come across a base that's never been discovered and has a played on for like 10 years. Yeah.

Like a gigantic base. And it's fine if nobody shows, once somebody shows something of it, the base is gone. People don't stream this. Well, or can you? I mean, they hate, the people that play it, like, hate streamers.

Yeah. Because, like, I've seen them stream it. So they'll just go after streamers. Right. I've seen them stream it. And like, right when they got logged in the server, it takes them two seconds, like, because they've been on the server so much,

they can tell exactly where you are. And then, like, 10 people show up. Some of them might kill you. Some of them might give you shit. But there's like, dude, there's whole clans following you around. And like, it's almost interesting just to like spawn in. Be like, what's going to happen to me? You can't stream it because people will, you definitely can't stream it.

This is like the dark web of video games. Yeah. Like, it's bad. You definitely can't stream it because like the Withers, the Withers. It is. This is the dark web of video games. If you like, this is where the fucked up people are at. Dude, yeah, no, the fucked up people.

The Withers, they'll name the Wizards. and the Withers have a bar, like a boss bar, so you see them if you're near it, and it'll just be like the N-word. Like, it's just like, it's like chaos. It's like they don't even have like... There's no rules, nothing. No rules.

It's full anarchy. Yeah. But it is... Like, if you found some shit in this game, they'll probably try finding your house in real life. If you stumble across something, you shouldn't have found. Yeah, the guy who makes videos...

Like, I want some, like, a leech. it in the real world. So where like if you found out this is where the elites hide the aliens. I found Epstein's Island. Literally equivalent to that. Equivalent to that.

Then they come and find you and kill you. Dude, it's like, I mean, it's just like Russ. Dude, I've watched a bunch of this shit. Could go on for hours. Yeah. It's, it's pretty damn interesting. Like, it is pretty damn interesting.

Like, you watch things like, I built this 20, or I don't know how long, how old is it again? Uh, 16 years. So like I built this 15 years ago. They come back in 20. Like someone's going to probably have a video this year. Yeah. I came back in 2026, built this 10 years ago.

It's still here. But the videos are like histories not only of like builds, but histories of like different factions. You should see like this like they've built like cities, literal cities. And there's like there's like the bad clans that like try finding all this shit. And they like. They like, they like hack into them. It's just like real. The mainframe of the server.

And they, they've done all this shit. and they can find out, like, if you fucked up a block or something, and they'll come and, dude, someone, the shit they've built is insane. Yeah. But once, like, the hackers, like, figure it out or the people who are, like, the bad clans, they'll come in and destroy the whole city. So are the bad people running it? No, the guy who runs it is just one dude who started it.

Just one guy started it. But I mean, like, are the bad, like, are they essentially, like, gangs? Yeah, because then, like, so some people. Who extort you? There will be like months at a time where a gang or a clan is dedicated to spawn camping spawn. So if people come in, new people come in, they kill them over and over and over again until they leave. And so there'll be like three weeks at a time. I want to join.

I want to spawn in. Dude Nick, imagine if you spawned in and you went like as far as you fucking can, like you got on and like just kept walking. You walked for like the whole week and you like built. The hex quarters. Have you, like, posted a photo of that? They would find it. They would, like, do everything to make sure they found it. Yeah.

And destroy it. Why? I don't know. Like, that's just they get off on that? Yeah, they just like it. This person's having fun. And there is, like, tech on this server that there's certain things you can do to, like, hide. There's certain blocks they can't find.

And there's certain things if you build, like, you can't have a normal furnace. If you have a normal furnace, that, like, pops up in like their ESP and they can find it. So how do you get welcomed? Oh, I don't know. You spawn in. Do you get lucky?

You must, you got to know someone. Yeah, either you know somebody. This really is some like, some gang, like elitist. Last,

the guy who makes the, God, I just know they feel powerful. Oh, yeah. Probably. Oh, for sure. Yeah, this is their, they've been doing it for 10 years.

For me calling them out right now, do you think I'm in trouble? Yeah. I would lock your door. It's great. I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding. But the guy who.

makes the videos the the like history videos he literally says like you know this is a lot of fun there's a lot of history here but if you're going to play it make sure to download the right security yeah like it's not safe like like because if if you fuck with the wrong person yeah they'll they can find your IP address and shit like through this unless so that'll probably do way more yeah so definitely i mean yeah i don't Dallas texas huh is this your number dude i love those memes that are like they probably send you what you're wearing right now Dude, it's just my webcam. Damon's making them sound like a fucking mob boss.

But I love those memes that are like when when you're sitting down at dinner and the guy on MonoWop or 2 just get listed off your family's address. Yeah. And you're sitting there sitting at dinner with the guy's like beating beating sweat. That shit is so funny. Dude, I would never have any idea that something like this exists. I didn't know until Will made the video. Oh, yeah. Wait, so what did Will do in it?

He just spawned in. I don't know. I'll have to rewatch him. He just walked around. Yeah, I think he just kind of like explored. Just see what he did? I know he had to blur if you, because you got to blur the text chat. You got to blur the numbers. Any sign is like bad.

Yeah. Like almost everything that's being said. Just racism. Yeah. It's like. I know if you're popular like super popular, they all will like try to get you to sign their books. And that's like a like a trophy on the server. Oh, look.

Will, Will got 100K views on that shit. I bet. I tried surviving, I tried to survive a day inside Minecraft's oldest Anarchy server. Yeah. Click on it. I just want to see like what is. Because I had no idea. How many people are on it?

744. And that's out of what, at 5,000, I guess. Yeah. But like a lot of times you have to wait in a queue for like, a queue to get in the server. Yeah, for like a couple hours. So this is spawn? I kind of want to click around just to see like see if he interacts with anyone. Oh yeah, there's like a highway.

Yeah, there's people that are dedicated to build, they want to build roads to get out of spawn. Yeah, like the highway, I watch someone go, it goes four ways. I watch someone go all four ways on the highway. Just like map it. And like one of them was like pretty decent like for a long time. and then the other three, I think, were fucked. Yeah. And there's, like, monuments along the way.

Oh, yeah, there's monuments. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I want to try it out. I want to try it out. What do you think the creator's idea was for this server compared to what it's turned into? That's a good question. I mean, I doubt he thought, like...

It was going to be this. Yeah, he probably was just like, I'm just going to start a server. Anything goes. You all put, like, invite a bunch of people. And now it's turned into this. It's kind of like what would happen in real... Is this the world we live in?

Is this hardcore real life? But if there was like just no laws, no nothing? Yeah, like the purge. It is kind of, like, it is very interesting. I wonder what like, I wonder what like 100 hours would be in TB2T. So Will didn't. Oh, he, that's a weather that's killing him. Yeah.

Getting out of spawn. So he hasn't, he never got out of spawn. This video got 100K views. And he has no, no hacks. No hacks. Oh, he got into the nether. though, but how does he get down? Wait, did he spawn here?

No, there's another, no, there's another portal at spawn. Oh. Like a lit one. That's it. That's how you do. I think, like, the best thing would lay is, be, like, spend a dollar and get a hacker, just bring you an Elytra and you just fly. Yeah, that would have to be.

But then it's like, if you just don't have, if you don't have hacks, you're just fucked. I mean, if you run into something. Count three notch apples, which for sure are duped. For sure they're duped. I try to imagine it's like once you're a hacker, once you're flying, once you got everything, once you can kick. A dude just comes out and kills him. There you go, Nick. He's not even like fucking with him.

Like, it's not even like the guy fucked with Will or anything. Just straight up like. Just death. Just death. Like, what's the fun that they have? Like, what are that? I'm sure. I'm sure like the elite level.

There's like gangs and shit. that have fun with each other and it's like super cool to like hack against other hackers but yeah but i don't think they like each other do you think do you think you really think shit turns into like real life of like i figured watch the videos this guy yeah watch the videos so the history stuff like breaks down yeah just look up 2 b2 t history and there there are like faction history and it did you know there's probably hours of videos yeah look look they talk about like shit turning into real life drama and stuff? 2B2T history and then

and then just scroll down the videos the entire history of the history of spawn the entire history of 2B2T I guess FitMC FitMC is the guy I've been talking about The Complete History All of these videos are so good

And they're put together like actual documentaries Yeah I get You could watch it like a fucking movie I'm down to peep one of these tonight instead of scroll. My favorite ones, like I said, are the ones where they like talk about the history of like cities and how it started and who wanted to build it and how they found it. And then it always ends with. And then this group spent months like going into the back end of the system.

And then there was like some glitch in the system. They could figure out like where these blocks were being placed, blah, blah, blah. And then they find the base and they just you see like the aftermath of it and it's gone. That's scary. Look at, look at how big that one of 2BTT's biggest cities. Oh, the Skymasons. Yeah, Skymasons. It died.

Yeah. Crazy. Yeah. So, yeah. You could go forever. I wonder if there's anarchy servers in Rust. Well, I guess. Nah.

No. Rust is just anarchy. One thing, one thing that I was talking to my chat about the other day is like, Minecraft has gotten to the point where it's one of those games where, like, if you start a world, Like there are people that have started worlds that have like built built up their worlds and then They're gonna keep that world and and eventually there people are gonna pass on that world to their children And so like that's crazy and so like imagine now imagine like 30 years 40 years from now like Your grandkids will have the world that you started and then that your that your that their parents played in and now they get

and and you can you could walk around and be like oh wow that's where grandpa played you know so that that's real like that's really gonna happen a lot of the a lot of guys that I watch a lot of people that they just sell it they play world for like years like years years and years and people always ask them like what are you going to do you know what are you planning on doing when you're done playing or when you can't play anymore when you die give it to my kids I was going to give the world to my kid and he can do what he wants with it can we look up Minecraft worlds what do people

do like okay so I beat Minecraft I beat it on hardcore as well then after that I think I killed like every boss or something like that and I was like now what they were like start your forever world and I like started it I built a decent little house

kind of got everything maxed out and then it was just like well now what? Like, I don't know what people do. Like, it turns into what? It all about building? Yeah.

But there's another side of Minecraft. You just don't even know. Have you ever made a minor? Have you ever made a minor? Have you ever made a minor? Made a minor what? Like a minor. Like a bunch of blocks that start, like, fucking each other.

And then, like. What? Dude. Wait. I, so, like, I've seen videos. So, like, these. Is this a dark web Minecraft? Well, you're talking about like a, like a world.

basically yeah I've made like a small one have you and it was a pain in the ass just to make like a I don't know um mine only went straight though mine didn't yeah like go back and forth and then down but like yeah the forever world guys will make like 100 by 100 they'll mine out like whole quarries and it's all like automated by the blocks so what does that do look up I mean it just like maybe my Minecraft IQ is too low to It's definitely too low to understand this. Look up, maybe look up, I'm trying to think of like. Is there a whole Minecraft world I don't know about? I'm trying to think of what like the most impressive.

Look up like flower fall, Ph.1.LSA. So forever Minecraft worlds basically just turn into like making cities, houses. Yeah, yeah. Jobs over here. So like this is this guy. the crazy shit. This guy's making, he's doing this all in hardcore and like this is his current project. Yeah.

And he's got like, he's got like nine of these. He's got like nine of these types of like builds. So he could die and lose this entire world. This is in hardcore. One misclick or like a lag on his computer or something while he's flying. Yeah, he's dead. Do you ever make like farms? Yeah.

Like what kind of farm? I don't know. Fucking wheat. No, like an automated wheat farm Oh, no Not an automated That's like the next level Dude, and this looks

This was five years old He's still working on this This one particular build is five years old This looks sick Wait he's got in like the middle of the ocean Yeah, in the middle of the ocean He wrote So that's his Forever World right here

Yeah I mean that's one Dude I think Phil has a He probably flies across the map And has like shit everywhere Dude he his This isn't his spawn This is just a project he's working on But I just realized he definitely made this with

Did he make the water? No, so the that did he? You know the little elder guardians? The, the, I don't know if you, I don't know the last time you guys played Minecraft. But you know the elder guardian that go in, they make you not be able to mine and you have to put doors down and kill like these big puffer fish.

They're like gigantic puffer fish. Wait, is it like the, like the, is it where like those bosses are? The green bot, what is it called? Are you thinking of the warden? It's not the warden. No, it's not the warden. This one's in the ocean. Okay.

So he, well, so basically this, this structure that he's flying by has three, like, gigantic puffer fish in there. And you have to go in there,

you have to kill the puffer fish. But it's made all out of, like, um, it's like this turquoise color. He replaced all the blocks with, like, very vibrant colors and then, like,

put flowers all around it as like a memorial that he beat, dude yeah yeah but that's like i wish i had that like creative level yeah were you ever like a big creative i mean no like you said no but like you never went crazy on like a house in a i mean i i tried the last server i played the last server i said i made like a minor it was probably like 10 long so i had like maybe four or five minors yeah like i just put it underground oh it just had them automatically it's like with redstone and and like slime blocks and it like, it basically just goes like this.

And then like the pistons like hit each other. Yeah. And it pushes the blocks forward, which shoots TNT and the TNT endlessly just. Yeah. Like, yeah, yeah, yeah, dude. Yeah. But it's, it was so annoying because like sometimes if I hit it too fast, it would fuck up and go before the seat or the TNT like went off.

It would break the machine. It would break the whole machine. And I'd have to go redo the whole thing. Have you ever watched Hermitcraft? Do you all know what Hermitcraft is? So it's a server of like 20 people or maybe it's like 20, 30 people and they're only they're only the best like builders in Minecraft.

Wait, have you, you've definitely seen it then. Some guy made like a working game boy or something. Oh, yeah. So those are like the Redstone heads. Yeah. I can't remember those guys. but a couple guys in Hermitcraft are like really good at RedCampure at Redstone and they they talk to those guys a lot I can't remember it's insane and that's like with the base game right game boy yeah just base game like not even mods no the shit you can do is insane everything in Hermacraft is like base game yeah they just play base game but but they're so bit like like look up green G-R-I-A-N episode one dude it's like games like I wish I I wish I could steal their their minds.

I wish I could just connect to them. So look, his, his episode one got five, what is it, five, five point four million views. And this is just like, look at them.

They're just starting. They started in the nether this year for some reason. And they're all probably insane. Yeah, and they're just, these guys are the best builders. Yeah, look,

uh, now look up, now look up, um, mumbo jumbo, bass. You did be fucking, mumbo jumbos.

I'd be forgetting how much hits, Base season 8 maybe Mumbo Jumbo Bays. He remembers all their names I just be clicking in the year. Okay, do season seven Season seven, sorry, sorry, season seven. Look at that. So like fast,

look at that. Look at that shit. God, man. Just creative nerd birds. Like these are just these are just, they all started out punching a tree and now like this is what their base looks like.

But even, Even, even, I mean, I could talk about, even this specific base. No mods, no hacks, spawn in, punching a tree. Punching a tree. And eventually it gets to this. On one of the servers we had, there was these two guys, maybe girl, I don't remember. But it was like the sickest thing I've seen, at least on like a server I played. Yeah.

They made like a big ass sword, like, like sword. Right. So the sword was like jabbed into the ground. Yeah. And it was huge and like all red and shit. detailed as fuck where it hit the ground there was a nether portal went under the rest of the the sword through the bottom yeah yeah yeah absolutely i was like who are these guys on our server right now the the new meta right now for Minecraft is do you do you remember um

this is crazy do you remember uh you know uh inter pearls right yeah like when you kill an interman you could throw it yeah i tell us you know like i've died a couple times you know you know a Soul sand, do you know what a soul sand like a soul sand like water tower is? So like if you put sole sand at the bottom. Yeah, you put kelp all through it. And then if you go into it, it shoots you to the top. You never did that. That's like that's like the fast way down and up.

You have a whole drop down landing the water. You need to go up. You got the kelp fucking. I think I think we did. You probably did it with a spanner. I think someone built that in like, because we had a little stint in like 2021 where some of the Opti guys played my garage. I think someone built it just like it up and down. So basically just go, if you walk into that water stream, it'll shoot you to the top.

So what people are doing now is they'll stand above that water stream and throw an interperl in it. And it's so it goes in there and then it bounces on the top because all the water is at the top. And then they'll put a trap door next to it that's open. Does it fling it? And a button. And so they can go 100,000 blocks away. Yeah. And then they'll activate that button

And the trap door will fold And they'll teleport back to spawn Wait what? So there's they built They've built in like teleportation In Minecraft In vanilla Minecraft Yeah

What was it before? You guys said I'm gonna have to look that up there Yeah it's it's fucking It's electric It's so sick Fuck what was it You guys mentioned something

That was just fucking insane About Minecraft I forget what it was though But like some of this stuff I get like do they When they're putting this much time into it Do they Is it the money off YouTube that they're making

Or is it? I mean these are these full time Minecraft people Oh yeah Okay I would say especially the biggest guys I mean they're making Like do they get money for making stuff

Like do they ever get hired To make like other people's worlds I don't know I mean I don't they don't have to I mean these guys are making There's and they get millions of dollars but but it's a family friendly server so it's like they're they all seem like good people like it's not like they're just trying to make like cool they're just creatives this is their outlet yeah exactly some people like graffiti or drawing and this is there's another there's another guy it was the

working game cube that's what i was thinking of that you mentioned that it was that or computer i saw some crazy what does that mean a working game cube so or game boy in in or computer like what is that fucking mean. In layman's terms Oh it is it was a game boy It basically redstone is the components of what redstone is Is is basically what the the very simple components are to programming like in real life So you can pretty much program anything with enough redstone

So this guy just built a game boy You can pretty much program anything with enough redstone. Yeah, because. Because they built... I don't know how programming works. I don't know how fucking zeros and ones work. But tech... But I don't understand what I'm saying,

but basically... You can make it do like whatever the fuck you want somehow. Basically, Redstone are zeros and ones. So you can build anything you want. What? Yeah. You can build anything you want at the end of the day. No way.

And he's about to play? I think this might be like... Yeah. Super Mario Land. He's dropping in the game. In the game. He dropped in the game. That would be my nightmare.

Something breaks. Yeah. Imagine having to go back and fix stuff. Bro, the guys on Hermicraft... I mean, they're so smart that... The guys on Hermicraft will build something for six hours and they'll be like, I don't like it. Tear it all down.

Yeah. And then build it again. And that's one episode. Like, they'll spend... I mean, I'm not going to lie. I'm so jealous of my... brain I would just love my brain

to be like that to where I would like grind with the boys for 12 hours and just like building something and fucking loving it Oh dude if I wish I could do the things they do Like I'm like always super interested In like the farms

And the farms they make are like Dude the farms are just like way too crazy What is it just unlimited? Like they can get it to make whatever they want Whatever they want whatever they want You want this blocks Okay we're gonna make like a monstrosity that makes those blocks.

There's a guy, so I watch Herman Craft, like Alexis and I watch it like TV shows. Like we watch, we watch episodes as they come out, and we've been doing that for like six years. Is she a crafter? Yeah, she loves Minecraft. Really? Better than you?

Yeah. Can I go to the bathroom? What? Can I go to the bathroom? Yeah, we go to the bathroom. Definitely a better builder than me. She's like... Really?

She makes her shit all pretty and shit? Yeah, yeah. When we play, I'm very much the hunter-gatherer. and come back I'll get food coal and maybe some iron

yeah and when I come back she's like I built this chicken monument and it's like a gigantic beautiful chicken and

um but we so we watch we watch Hermacraft all the time and there's um like just being able

to keep up with the with the world I mean some of look up uh we're putting Matt to work today

look up uh team summertime reacts Hermanncraft. Look it up and then I might go piss too. Or Team Summertime Hermitcraft.

I'm gonna go piss too. Okay. Well look, before you leave. Like, we got like 500,000 views just going through the megabases. Did you try to reinvent or do it again? Yeah.

Yeah, of course. Of course. And they built like little, they built like little games and shit in the server. So me, Blake and George just went around and played the games. And people fucking love it.

Dude. It's like coding. inside of Minecraft. Oh yeah, that's insane. I'm gonna go P2. So yeah, Rust. Rust is fun. Minecraft's fun.

Runecapes fun. I love games. That's what we, that's what we, that's what we, that's all the games that people said were fun are fun. Yeah.

What still, what blows my mind is I had no idea. Whenever Damon mentioned it to be the dark web of Minecraft, of gaming is in a Minecraft server. I mean, it's probably like,

it's not actually that severe, but like, it is like a, I can see the... A lot of history. Yeah, some similarities and shit. That's funny. Yeah.

Definitely a lot of history. It's really cool. Really cool shit out there. What? You know what I've wanted to talk about? You're back hurting? No, not my back hurting. Did you guys...

You want to get into a little bit of cod right now? Sure, man. Did you got... I don't know if you guys have heard. I probably haven't. But there's some drama going. on a player getting dropped. Why was he dropped?

Was it because of this? Because of the E-sex? We haven't talked about the E-Sex yet, Hitch. And that's like if there's a topic that I didn't know how I did, there's no segue for me to get here. But we haven't talked about it. And if something like that pops up, this is where we shine. Yeah. I, I.

We got nothing else. This is where, this is our content. We wait for moments like this. Do you think he was already getting dropped? Can we pull it up? I don't know. Are we allowed to pull up the screenshots? I don't even know where to find the screenshots.

But it basically says, it basically Nero asked a girl. Let's get some context. Nero asked a girl on Discord if pretty politely. Nero a pro for, was it Seattle? Carolina. Carolina. Asta asked someone. asked someone on on discord

pretty politely if if they can have a little bit of e-sex which in itself I've never even heard the term e-sex I've never had the thoughts to type that and ask for e-sex I feel like it was always like a joke

like yeah it almost seemed like a troll to say that yeah hey I'm a little horny I'm so do you would you be interested in maybe like trying out some e-sex and then I'm not the same minute.

What is that quote from? Is that a real quote? It was probably from when he like was sending them. Yeah, it says parasite on. Oh, Parasite's been caught sending some messages. Parasite on DMing his teammates girlfriend mid S&D match. Yeah. See, is that completely true?

So he's playing with some dude in DMing. Wait, that was all over Twitter too. Yeah, that was that was like five years ago. It was like whenever he last played. He was midmatch, DMing his team. made his girlfriend. It had to be like Cold War maybe. Oh, man.

Oh, that's good. That's better. That's a better story, in my opinion. I don't know. The Nero one. I ain't gonna hold it against you. No, I, you were horny.

You just get memed a little bit. Just get memed. And he clutched up with his response. Yeah. With that being said, unrestricted free agent and using this picture, absolute banger. I mean, I'm sure it...

What do you think he was like at first when it... Like, what, the girl just leaks the conversation? Yeah, I think... Just like, look what this fucking guy said to me? No. Did he also try playing it off? He was like, oh, wrong person. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

He did say he meant to send it to a different person. But she... The person who leaked it kind of said, like, I'm being harassed. Yeah. She was like, everybody stay away from this guy. He's harassing you. And then people are like, that's not harassing. Like, he's just...

I fucking can't see. He's just he's just got no game is what it looks like. Yeah, he's shooting. Shooting your shot is not harassment. Right, right. Like just, you just say, no. No, I would not, I would, I don't, I'm not interested in E-Sex. Yeah.

Because it seemed like if you said, I'm not very interested in E-Sex, he would be like, okay, no worries. Okay, no worries. On to the next. Copy-paste. Yeah, copy-paste. Go down as Discord friends. It is interesting. I feel like I haven't, you know, this was new.

Yeah. But he did get dropped. And in my opinion, I think he was already going to get dropped. Because I don't think this is a reason to get dropped. Yeah, probably not. I don't think this is. Because I would say the public sentiment as soon as this happened was being like talking to the girl, being like, yo, this is kind of disrespectful for women that actually get harassed. Because there are women out there that actually get harassed.

That's what people were saying. And I like that they respond that way because come on. She said. Yeah. She was saying some crazy shit. Like, I feel like I got, I don't even want to say the words or, yeah. But like, for her to say that about his seemingly innocent, like,

yeah. E-sex? Like, there, I still follow, like, a lot of, a lot of our friends from, like, the 2016, 2015, or like the, I guess you would call them E-girls from back then. I saw a few of them tweeting and they were like, if this is what's getting exposed now, I've got mountains of evidence. I was like, yeah, I'm assuming you do. Like if that's Adeline, you should have saw what they were fucking...

You should have saw 10 years ago what was happening. Are you familiar with Nero at all? Talk to him much? Me? Uh-huh. I think the only time I ever spoke to him was when... I think I played with him. What was the game that had a...

A fucking hitch throwback turning? It was a search map, and like the middle of the map was like a big rectangular building with like maybe a firing range it looked like. And the far left side had like the bomb site at the bottom of the ramp and there was like a two-story building I have no idea And defense had like crates and the other bomb side was on like the left side of the map and there's a bunch of crates Gun Runner? But you played like attorney with that game yeah that's like

Davis had me playing attorney with him and Dude who else was it but I was like bro I've never played with these guys but I mean they seem nice That might have been monitor for 22 It wasn't the it wasn't the game that we won champs It had to be the game with the tack and the Vazna. Yeah, Mono for 22. Yeah, yeah, yeah, because Nero, the whole Boston Breach team played in that. Did he seem like the person who would ask for sex?

I mean, I feel like the vibe from it, like, I just got that he's a nice person. And then I was playing wow, like last week and he was in my chat and I think he played wow. Imagine this is you and someone leaks that. Honestly, does your stomach drop? I think I get sick at first. my stomach drops. Then I realize like... I feel like you just have to joke about it.

Yeah, you just kind of got to do. It's not like, like, like I said. This was the perfect response. It was like some great fucked up shit you said and like... This is like when... I'm team Nero. I just know you got my support. There was when a nameless person, uh, came out and tried to, uh, tried to expose Pumage

for having a threesome. And his response was just... Like a collat or some shit. Plus was tweeting out the collateral metal. I mean, that probably is a top 10 tweet of all time. Was someone, like, trying to call him out for that? Yeah. Anyway, they got one million views.

I don't remember who. One of the girls said, one of the girls was. One of the girls involved. One of the girls was mad at the other girl and tweeted out. If you guys want to know what it's really like out there, we did this with Pomage. So she's like outing herself. Trying to out the girl and out Pomage saying, like these are the people you look up to and watch like yeah and everyone else was like yeah

didn't work out the way you wanted huh that shit's hilarious but yeah but this is wait what was I about to say um uh fuck what was I about to say parasite responded to it laugh my ass off yeah this is probably like well this is the least create oh oh that's what I was going to say this is like something really fucked up happened after this so obviously all the shit happened with uh i guess you saw all the laths stuff right yeah like the stuff happened with ab yeah i weren't waking up that day opening my phone i'm like the fuck happened yeah so all that shit happened so obviously the the the question there is how did it get leaked like how how the hell that is crazy how do private Because it is private scrims.

Yeah, if something came out about our players, there's six people that, there's only six people that could have it. It's got to be Matt Craig, Riley. No, I don't think Matt. Literally, Matt doesn't know how to. Yeah, Matt doesn't know how to get to it. Say it was our team.

Who's some of the, who's like, who? The players, JP and Damon. Oh, it has to be the players, the coach. And Damon. Players are the coaches. Those are the people that have our Vods. None of our production team has the Vods. And assuming that's the same for other.

teams as well. That's what you would assume. Yeah. So how the hell out of a, and how long do Vod's, like Vod streams go on for what, six hours, seven hours? Yeah. So out of a six, if somebody, if somebody got it, if somebody got the LA Thieves. What a fucking loser.

If somebody got the L.A. thieves, like, unlisted Vod, they would have to have watched seven hours of videos to find that one snippet. Yeah, like, I'm curious if it was like, see, like, the only, the only way, if it's, If it wasn't some, okay, now it sounds bad because I'm like, someone in the camp did it. Right, yeah. But the only way, like, is if somebody, like, watched a Vod on stream and then, like, got the link, like, it showed their YouTube link. Right, right. Because they weren't full screen.

True, true, true, yeah. But I, but why would you do that? Yeah, and I don't think any of those guys go on stream and watch their Scrim Vod. Yeah, I don't think so either. I don't think it's that either. That's a weird part. You were saying maybe they watched the Scrimvod on stream in one of the viewers. Shows the URL and the viewer finds it.

I like showed it on my screen. I copy and pasted the link. You just copy and paste the link. Like you type the link. Yeah. Yeah. I don't think they do that though, right? Yeah.

I've never seen them go on stream show on their Vod. So it's very, obviously, the weird. Obviously, the weird part is, is I tweeted out like, how the hell did he get the, how did this even get leaked? And people are like, you're like, you're not saying, you're not saying bad. You're not saying, you're like protecting the Bezzie for saying shit. Was there, was there a date on the Vod or anything? I have no idea.

No, I just saw, I just saw the clip on. Twitter. Because I don't even know when it was. Like, there's only like one other. No. So I think somebody, basically somebody's trying to take down LAT. I don't know who. If it's somebody in LAT that sucks. If it's somebody out of LAT they're a piece of shit as well. Or they're trying to take down

just up easy. No, because what is it? Like, less than 48 hours later something came out about Hydra's girlfriend. That was all like, I saw that was all like fake. Hydra's girlfriend apparently has a sugar daddy that she's hiding.

That's what I said. Someone asked me about that on stream. I'm like, bro. But she... Like, what if that's like her grandpa or something? But then it all got, it all got debunked. Like, I saw, I saw she came out and said, I've been harassed by somebody for like a year. There's like someone's like been going after that.

Yeah, someone's been like photoshopping her into stuff or like AIing her into stuff with like an older gentleman. And like, bro, that is so fucked up. That is so weird. So, that is so fucked up. Like, so taking picture after picture after. And like, why? Why? Why? Why do that? It's kind of like if like the scrap and draws a thing, you know where their girls got involved in that beef.

But like those they kind of like were a part of like they they they were a part of it. But like from my understanding, this girl that Hydra's with has no dog doesn't do anything just on the outside. Yeah. Shows up supports her guy. I didn't even know they were I didn't even know they were dating. I didn't know I think maybe I had heard of her But not really Yeah And then like all of a sudden

You've got these like fucking Twitter accounts Tweeting shit out like I was like thinking of that on the way here I was like open Twitter I'm just scrolling Like bro I don't even know what the fuck's real anymore Yeah no I do it's just so much shit And dude I legit don't know what's real and what's fake

Yeah With anything That shit is ass What AI Yeah Yeah something bad could I mean some bad shit It is fucking happening

And but It was it was definitely a crazy week in Call the Duty Yeah what else You can tell you can tell it's three weeks off Even then I should have No matches just Well I think last night Before I went to bed

I opened Twitter or maybe this is this morning But I saw a thing that said Kenny was like Trialing with Boston Breach Yeah Then there was a screenshot of him playing us and we haven't even scrimmed since we've been back

like it was fake wow but then it's like and someone was doing bad I don't know what it was but I think it was said like Kenny's not doing well blah blah blah but it wouldn't even it wasn't even real it was real issue is the news outlets

like push it because it's like one of like the accounts it's been like tweeting shit it's not even like news outlets it's not like de serrots whatever they are it's not breaking place not a news outlet but like just a rage baiting

like they'll see it don't know it's fake but like but if I tweet this people actually like believed it but we haven't even scrimmed yet so like how would we play that like that guy that what is the guy that case on was like yo I'm gonna wipe your account off the internet or whatever like that guy yeah I mean that that that's like

unfortunately it's a meta now they'll watch it around the bar they're watching around the bar that I had with Semp and and they'll pick they'll cut like in between his sentences oh was it like what do you feel about your old teammates yeah and then he'll title it like

Like, Simp comes clean about how he's better than his old teammates. Yeah. And it'll be like a half of one of his sentences that he says and just cut off all, you know, all context. Yeah. And I don't know. It just seems like that's, it seems like that's what's going on. I saw that and I like, I saw the cut up version. Then I saw like the real version and it was simply just like, yeah.

He ends it like, no, just, you know, we're cool. Wish them all the best. Yeah, I wish them the best. I'm like, well, that's not what. that's the complete opposite of what was just said CDL high high man said

I feel like that's like a shitty thing for me dude like I hate talking about cod like when people come to my chat they just ask me like everything right and like what was it like streaming during the oh and 15 days oh and 18

oh and 18 I don't know if I was I don't even dude I don't remember any of that were you like not per was that is that whole timing just like blank I literally don't remember any of that. I don't even think that happened.

That whole year was just, that whole year was pretty awful. Except for the last two tournaments. Until the end. No, but like those accounts and all that shit, dude, because people always ask me shit and like, I'm pretty open about like my thoughts and shit. But the problem is, is like, I get going.

And then I'm like, I start talking like, I'm a player. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And then they'll be like, what about this guy? I'll be like, I'll say what I think about that guy. Right. Like, I don't like doing it because I don't think I should be. It'd be way different if I was playing. I'd be like, yeah, this guy's shit.

Yeah. You know what I mean? Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And then, like, I'll wake up the next day and karma says, this guy best. Yeah, you're karma. So when you say that, it holds some weight to it. Yeah. You can't really make the net.

Like I said, it's bad because, like, I'm like sometimes way too brutally honest. And, like, then there's times people might think I'm troll. because I mean I troll a lot. I feel like that's my gimmick. Instead of saying what I want to say, I'll just like fuck with people. Like dude, the other day I actually felt bad. I was, I don't think anyone noticed there were so many people. I was in Summ's chat and Ksong was like talking about whatever he was talking about.

And he said something about the major. And then I was like, yeah, you guys are shit. And then right under my message, like there's hell of people like spam and shit. Simp starts typing. And I'm like, okay, I look like an asshole. Because I just got done saying, yeah, phase of shit. And then Sim's like, yeah, let's go. I was like, I feel so bad.

Yeah, he probably did. I think he's fine. They just won the last major. Yeah, I think they take it a little lighthearted. So what was happening? What was happening with the PCs? I haven't heard. Wait, update, update me.

Update us normies. Okay, I'll say it from my perspective. I'll say it from my perspective. As a bias. What happened? As a bias optic fan. Well, what happened before you explain? This is, okay.

I'll get there. As a bias optic fan, complete bias. Yeah. Well, a hundred percent bias. Against phase in grand finals of a call of duty tournament, it doesn't get more bias than me. I was watching 04 shoot and he was killing in a bullet. And I don't know if I just wasn't seeing, I don't know if I wasn't seeing the team shooting or I wasn't seeing whatever. But I was, but then I would look at Dashy's webcam in between games and you could tell he's

peed it. He was pissed. Not pissed like we just got shit on. I've seen Dashie, we just got shit on. What the fuck am I playing on? Just like what's going on? Like confusion pissed almost. And 04 is a really good player.

But every time it was on his screen, he was shooting nuclear missiles out of his, out of his little tiny gun. Yeah. And that was like, it looks weird. Dude. But no, I don't know, I don't know if the players have said anything. Like they're not going to say anything. Yeah.

That's just the way they are. I mean, if anything, you might get something out of Brandon. There's just no winning. I could tell, though, like, so here's how I felt. So, like, watching it, I mean, I don't know how long was between our last series and that one. Okay. In the moment, it didn't feel that long. I, in my opinion, like, I know, like, everyone, you know, our fans, you know, are pissed about the format.

Hex. HECs. And, you know, like, that's fair. I mean, it, you can say the same thing for everyone who's went through that and what, since the CDL. Like, it's been like that forever. It's shit. It's a shit for it. Yeah. I've never heard the players bitch about it because, like, you can't. There's no reason to. Yeah. It is what it is. I think they were warm. I think they were fine. Our guys? Yeah. They seemed fine. They didn't seem like they were sleeping or like they were asleep, like after we won. Yeah, yeah.

I don't know. Like overall, it's shitty because, like, first series of the tournament, I think, was our sloppiest series of the ones we won. After that, I think we were lights out. Do you think that series as a spectator and, like, sitting back there with JP, JP's like, dude, what is going on? And, like, in the moment, I could just tell the, like, we're probably fucked. And there's, like, nothing we could have done. You don't think there's any winning that series? I think even it being that close was a fucking miracle and it wasn't even close really.

So when you're back there and you're saying what the fuck's going on, like what do you mean by that? Well, like watching that, it just reminded me of the IW series at champs. Yeah. When Ian. I was like the only one who, it was like scorch hard point first map in winner's finals. And like normally if someone was going to get shit on or look bad in this series. It was like it was usually me and I think that map like I mean I think I was still negative But I think I had like 30 kills I could be totally wrong on this and then I looked at the other three and I'm like bro

They were getting farmed they're getting farmed and then I remember I remember like after everyone cooled down Was it was it was a Colossus I can't remember I think it was like first map Colossus Brian was like dude I literally couldn't get a kill like this piece and he's like I gotta be getting shit on And then he looked over and was like, bro, but then you guys were all getting shit on too. Yeah. Yeah. He was like mind blown. I mean, like having having walked around and films especially Ian, yeah. Like Ian would be like. So you know like so sorry.

But like so like watching that though, the hardest part for me and like I said, J.P. was just like mind blown. I just knew that like even I don't know. I don't know how you go from like beating a team like and we're they're like I don't know we're like plus 30 kills and then like 45 minutes later we're getting out slayed by 60 and we've only lost one respawn on land. Right. We're getting outslayed by 60 kills. Like there's a certain point in cod where dude it doesn't matter what the fuck you're doing and we were getting blown away. It was it was clear. I don't fucking know.

Same thing with IW. I remember talking the ref after because like IW champs. I mean, we got to finals, and me and Porter probably delayed the finals by like 30, 40 minutes. Yep. It was like getting new boxes. We want new boxes. They can do it too. They didn't want to.

But like, we want them. And he just kept saying like, well, what's the problem? I'm like, dude, I don't fucking know. But we lost yet. Like the day before there, we played today. We played against, we beat phase on the side of the MV was on. We smoked them. We played LG.

LG prior toughest opponent all year. always a close series of LG, I'm pretty sure. Yeah. You can even ask Sam to this day. I was about to say, I remember Sam talking about it. They will say they had no chance. Like, they had no chance. And they were a good team.

Yes. Got them out the fucking way. I remember Sam saying right after the tournament, right after they lost, he came up to you guys in the back and he was like, I don't know what we just played. And then you guys were kind of like, yeah, I don't know either. Because Sam was saying that he couldn't. I mean, he was probably like top three shooter at that time. He couldn't get kills. But yeah, and then, like I said, I just remember talking the ref after, and he's like, I mean, sorry for, like, being like that.

But, like, we do need, like, a reason for, like, what was wrong. And, like, yeah, we didn't have a reason. Saying, like, it feels like shit isn't a good enough reason. I mean, yeah. So, like, and then, okay, so fast forward to this, like. And then, so there was an overload glitch, apparently. Where, so, like, instead of everyone being on 300 frames, they're dipping in 90. but there there hasn't been an overload glitch the whole fucking year yeah um so like yeah we get to

finals after a smooth weekend when we're sitting on the other side no problems we didn't have any problems um and then yeah like like first side is going on and like during during that map on the scar like you hear brandon and kailer being like ref like what is going on look at my screen then it gets to halftime and they're like dude what is going on like they're freaking like they're tilted because like we haven't had issues Yeah. And the ref says, yeah, it's overload glitch. We're just going to pause the game.

It'll fix itself. So Brandon's losing it because he's like, it's like, bro, I've played this game. Every day since it came out. There's not a fucking overload glitch. It's so weird, dude. What the fuck? So, yeah, it starts playing. I mean, yeah, we're still getting blown away.

Right, right. We have a crazy comeback. And gets the streak at the end. Aunt knows he scammed. But they were calling the street. streak in last 10 seconds of regulation when whatever happened and I mean it just fucking drops again they all go from or I don't know if there's two of them or three of them but they all go from 300 fps to 90 and then they're playing on 90 FPS so so like that it's just the way the series is

going and then that's happened tilting right right just knocks the mental out I it's a it's just a shit show and then like I think it was when we're down 3-1 or 2-1 I remember like JP like message them like Like like Because they're tweaking on stage like we

Something ain't we have to change something Yeah like no we can't do anything Just keep playing I'm like J-P you gotta put in the discord And then in the discord CDL was like It's not that side of the stage issue It's not a PC issue it's been happening all week And they're like No it fucking hasn't we haven't lagged all week

And they're like yeah it's been happening on all weekend. But it's like right when we swap sides, apparently everyone's lagging. Yeah. And just weird shit's happening. And I don't know. Like looking back at it,

if we went back, we probably would have just picked Team B, lost our veto advantage and just dealt with it, just to not deal with whatever the fuck that was. Team B like the other side of the stage? Yeah, like so we'd pick like two, three, four, but we don't get to ban. Oh, so you would lose your winners?

but you play the side and then you want to play on. Yeah, I mean, like, I got going for it, I might as well just fucking do it if we're in that scenario. Just so weird. Because then you don't get to fucking winner's finals, and it's like, oh, yeah, it's been happening all weekend with some glitch that literally doesn't exist. But yeah, we also, like, figured we wouldn't tell you anything about it.

Right, yeah. Until your middle of the map, yeah, we're going to pause and it's going to fix it. Oh, yeah. It might come back in the last minute. So even besides the glitch, it was just like feeling shitty. It seemed like... Without saying anything, I would say something wasn't right. I don't think the players have said anything.

There's people out there. Yeah, I don't think I heard of that. I think Pred said something. I think ex-ed. I think all I've heard sort of was like the warm-ups, fucking didn't get to warm up. Oh, yeah, that's your excuse. But like... I don't think, I didn't think that was going to even be allowed anyways.

But, I mean, it was worth a try. Yeah. Like I said, format sucks. we already know that. And, you know, I mean, our fans are passionate. Like, and then, you know, obviously got the other team's fans are passionate. They're all going at it. But at the end of the day, I don't think any of them are really right.

Like, I think we were warm. Yeah. Maybe we weren't. I don't fucking know. Like, they got people, we shouldn't have played fucking Colossus. I mean, we could have played any other map and we might have still got blown away. Like, the way we were, we looked like noobs. was like, I don't know.

Yeah. They weren't winning gunfights. Yeah. You can't, you can't get out slayed by 60 and expect to have any chance. Are the players allowed to, like, go into the computer and, like, switch any NVIDIA settings? They can do invidia settings, yeah. They can pretty much do whatever they want. What is it called? Like, G-G-sync?

Yeah, they can do all that. They can turn G-sync on or off. But I make sure they, like, turn it off. Like, I'm annoying as shit about it. About turning G-sync off? No, all their sense. settings. Okay.

Everything. I, like, before a Maps start, I was like, bro, make sure you guys have dynamic. I didn't see Collar Check and I'm like, you guys check dynamic. I walked over it, made sure they're on it. Made sure everyone was on it. Made sure they checked everything. Because even like, because, I mean, at 2020, my little crackhead era, but like, little Nvidia setting, shit like that.

Like your game will feel fucking horrible sometimes. Then you'll restart your PC and it'll be good for like two games. Like when it comes to PC problems and like everyone hearing it. Everyone hearing everything you said. That's what they end up trying. They're just going to be like, you were on the same PCs they were on. No excuse. But it's like PCs do weird shit.

Yeah. Anything electronic, bro. They like end up starting them after like the third map or something like. Yeah. And then, dude, they, they were just like it was in a rough spot for them. They're getting like some shit popping up on the screen. They've never seen before like with these same computers they play with. So yeah, they're like, what the fuck?

I feel like he... I feel like he... I had a crazy one. I don't know if you say anything about it, but like... Error message? Like, but yeah, like in game. Like, I don't even... Ask Ann about the, what the round shit said in the future.

What the round shit said? Round shit. Bro, he said he was looking at all the computers. Like, bro, what is it? Like, your guy's shit does not say what mine does. Really? What the fuck? It was crazy shit.

But end of the day, I said, like, after we were saying... in there and we were we were in dinner just having some drinks and I'm like I mean you know maybe we could have done more in that situation but at the end of the day I mean you guys got to be like me and Ian like we could say so much we could say so much like in the moment but like at the end of the day if you guys if we make it that far in a tournament you guys are optic like you're shotsie hook mark dash if you guys aren't happy with it you literally tell them you're not fucking plan. Yeah.

Yeah. See if they, like, they're not gonna, if they for you or be mind blown. Yeah. That's what I said.

I said, if you're ever not happy at all, you fucking tell them you're not playing. Yeah. I don't know what else to do. Yeah.

Yeah. It's just anything electronic is so weird. Because you'll know, like, dude, even when we're playing, they'll be like, bro,

like in our league matches are like, this shit's bullshit. It doesn't feel right. Or like, this ping is whatever. Yeah. I'm like,

dude, I've never played PC cod competitively. I don't know what the fucking difference is. But I mean, if you're, I can tell when you guys aren't saying anything and when you are saying something, like, I just assume they're not making it up because I can tell when you're playing like shit and when you're not playing like shit or when you can't get a kill and when you get a kill. You know if you're playing good. I feel like when they say something like I usually believe it. Yeah.

I think maybe we have a tweaker or two, maybe a tweaker and a half on our team. a little bit of tweet per team. But if Kyler says something, something's wrong. That's kind of how I see it. It's kind of like if formal said something, because formal would play on any setting. Yeah, formal used to play on like G-sync on, fucking just same shit dead zones.

If Matt was saying something, then something was like for sure wrong. Yeah, like I said, I don't think any of them have said anything. Maybe like Brandon, maybe ants talked about it. They probably won't say anything, but. Yeah. But then this.

I could tell what they were all thinking, like, just listening. Yeah, yeah. I was watching a little... They just seemed confused. Like, what the fuck? I was watching a little interview about like a guitarist. I'll bring it back. I watched this little interview about a guitarist,

and they were talking about, like, how does he get his right sound for his guitar? And he was like, I used to be obsessed with it. I would switch out my guitar cables. And he was like, and sometimes we would plug in the amplifier into different outlets. Because sometimes different outlets sounded better. sounded better on the guitar than other outlets did. And I was like, if that's happening for guitars, imagine.

Bro, I'm telling you. There's just no way that you throw a land on PC and everyone's settings are the same. There's no way. People will change USB ports from which their controllers plugged into, which their mouse is plugged into. Maybe even like a different HTML or DVI port in the back to where their monitors plugged into. A lot of shit can be affected. It's just we can't There's I mean I don't know a way to monitor it to where it's okay perfect PC right here

It's just all about how it feels But even people will say we'll go back to console but that happened in consoles too Like there were there were consoles that were built with a different in a different lot than the other ones were and these ran better You would get you would get 60 frames consistently It felt easy yeah it's it's just it is weird it is weird at the end of the day I don't know if there is It makes it tough too Because it just seems like you're down

Like discrediting the other team You know Oh yeah Yeah no no They played great dude They were on the come up They've Like they bounced back heavily

And I mean dude They were almost in the finals Of the tournament before Yeah no yeah Bar like some crazy literal crazy shit Like a 1v3 twice or some shit You're up to him

Yeah Yeah no they definitely played great Simp always gets one I'm glad he got one Hopefully he doesn't get any more this year. I mean, he's been a beast and

yeah, yeah, that ain't changing. Yeah. It'll be interesting, man. The next two events, we got Atlanta coming up, then we got Paris coming up.

Paris apparently sold 30,000 tickets. Really? 30,000 tickets? So that'll be like, that would be like spread out through the days. So like,

Birmingham looks, I don't know how many days it is. Oh, it's spread out through the days. I would assume. Okay. Because that's what I thought at first. And JP's like, some people only have a Friday ticket.

Yeah. Oh, okay. but maybe not i mean that makes way more sense 30 k people because that's what i thought at first i'm like 30 what that's that would be someone's like bro like how many people who are in a basketball game yeah NBA game 30 000 30 000 fans would be six times more than cod champs was yeah like the the one that i should sell tickets that yeah that i mean so we'll see we'll see i'm excited uh i had you okay so we did before we before we before we we stop. We did bring you on because to ask you a few questions about fatherhood.

Yeah. Nick, I thought, I thought you were going to say, we usually freestyle. Oh, no, no, no, no. That's at the beginning. That's at the beginning. If you want to freestyle, we can. Hell no. Matt Craig with the. I was horny. All right. I'm not the same man I was five minutes ago. I'm not saying I'm not the same man. I was five minutes. All right. So give me like, give me, Give me two pieces of advice for fatherhood. Okay. Okay, so the first kid you have is, I mean, everything is like foreign. You're going to be worried about everything.

Yeah. I think you should be worried about everything. I think it's better to be safe. He's chill. Then, I don't know, safe than sorry. Yeah. Like, that sounds crazy. But, like, they're going to tell you, tell you all.

these things you should do um you know you're gonna have family that tell you things you should do and the hardest thing honestly is like from when you were growing up to like now right right like it like how you were raised and the the shit they would tell you like your parents when you're in the hospital um to what they're going to tell you now is like way different that that's what i've gathered okay but but definitely listen to what they have to tell you you have family who gives you advice, listen to that. And then, like, really, you just feel it out. You'll, like, understand, like, what I should do, what I shouldn't do.

Should I be worried about this? Like, like, pillows in the crib. Nothing in the crib. Like, when they're tiny, you don't want anything near them. And as they get older, you know, you're going to realize, like, what they can do. And then you'll, you'll see them grow up and, like, be comfortable or shit. Like, like, with Layla. It's like, you know, she, when they're little, they, they, they, they, they,

don't really do anything. Right. Then you see like, okay, why are you opening the door? Why are you opening all the drawers? Then you start getting like, you know, you kid proof everything. Yeah. It's like the same with like eating. I mean, you got to watch them.

That also like you have to watch them. They get crazy. Yeah. Like Layla is way crazier than Bella was. Really? She's like, you got to have eyes on her 24-7. A little sneaky one. Sure does eat everything?

Not not I mean she loves eating She shouldn't No not they've never done that But like climbing like she's a little daredevil We had to Get like locks for the doors Because I mean now she can unlock the doors I've had her like walk on on the front door

And she'd be like Why is the door going off? Why was something in the ring camera? Yeah But now like we got latches for the doors But yeah like I said It's going to be a lot at first. Like I said, he's going to have so many people telling new things.

And, you know, it is good to listen to them. But at a certain point, like, you're going to figure it out what you should do, what you shouldn't do. What's, what's dad being like for the teenage years? Because you're just now getting into that, right? Yeah. Very, very soon. Technically, I got, like, two more years. Oh, one more after this one.

Okay, okay. I mean, it's, I want to say right now it's easy. Okay. It's, you know, don't have to worry about what she's doing the whole time. Right, yeah. But I'm sure it's going to get worse. It's like the chill time. Is it the chill time?

Yeah, there's definitely a certain age. There's like a certain age in the middle where you're like, okay, she's fine. She's a kid living her best life. Yeah. I'm sure there's going to be a point where, yeah, I'm like, what the fuck. Yeah, that like, 14, 15, 16 era. That was when I think we can all attest that we were like, no, I'm an adult now. Like, I can do what I want.

It's like, no, you're not. No, my mic controller. You ain't shutting shit off. Yeah, if I said that, I'd be dead. I paid half for this Xbox. Yeah. And then, like, also, you know, when their first. point. Like, the beginning can be tough. It really depends on the baby.

Yeah. You might have to wake up like crazy. I mean, you're going to have to wake up at crazy hours. Yeah. I'd say, I feel like everyone probably says it, but when you can get sleep. Let me be your nanny. Hmm. For like a week. For like a video? Maybe like an hour? Maybe like an hour? Let me use your baby as content. Wait, but actually, to what I was saying, it was actually funny because I remember when Seth and Hector, I was here for one of the watch parties. This was before

the kid was born. And we were like talking about things. But you could tell that like I mean, Hector, well, Liv is older than both mine. So like he's, he even had that experience way before. Yeah.

But yeah, like the, the shit he was saying like, you can do this, you can do that. And Seth's like freaking out like, what's the I can't do that. I'm not doing this. I'm not doing that. Hector's like, bro, like what? Like, what? Like, everything's just different.

Like, I don't even know, I don't know what they're going to tell you you can't do when you go the hospital and, you know. Yeah. The kid pops out. Like, they might say some crazy shit. You just, you play it by ear. Yeah. Play it by ear. Yeah.

Like I said, you figure it out. Yeah. You know what's good and what's not good. Yeah. Just make sure they're happy. Make sure they're happy. That's what it'll take. That's the gem I'll take.

Make sure they're happy. Good times. Yeah. head. All right, bro. I appreciate you coming on. Are we good on time? Yeah, I appreciate you. Come on, Damon. We talked a little bit about Rust, a little bit about fatherhood, a little bit about being horny. Yeah, a little bit about E-sex. We got through it all, man. Everything, everything that was on our list to talk about. Everything Matt Craig wrote down for us to talk about. We talked about. Yeah, Matt Craig, of course.

Like, dude, I'm not even writing anything for you guys next time. Don't worry. He's not. All right, guys. Appreciate you watching. That was fine. I mean, dude, you're welcome to get me anytime. Like I said, this might have broke me out of my UK schedule. There you go. There you go.

It was tough waking up to get here. Dude, well, one. No, you know, actually last night, like, I think it's because I knew I had to be here was like the best night of sleep I've gotten since I've been home. Okay. How yeah. Gave you a little purpose today here on a fly cast. It was bad going.

Like, dude, I'm the worst with jet leg. Like, thank God I'm not playing because it don't fucking matter. But dude, I'm like, and then I come back and I sleep the whole flight home. Then you're up all night. And I'm like, okay, I'm fine. Yeah, I make it through the day. Did I wake up like 2 a.m. Sure enough, 2 a.m. is like 8 a.m.

Yeah, yeah. 10 a.m. When I'm waking up there. So I'm like, oh, fuck. Yeah, I'm always, I'm always screwed up when I go. Yeah, when I go over there. Yeah. This was great, though.

Thank you for having me. Yeah, ma'am. All right. Damon, thanks for joining us. Thank you all for watching. leave a like leave a comment for once Matt Greg Play it out
