To combat misinformation about Mumbo's retirement, we asked a noted retirement expert Tom Scortt to comment on it

bbq with team japan!!

hey what.

Whatever people think about Doc on twitter you have to acknowledge that it’s objectively very slay of him to say this. I mean I agree it’s a great dress. I just wouldn’t expect to see Doc of all people replying to a tweet like this lol (also yes I checked that’s actually Doc)

A compilation of Etho reacting to his 2011 1k subscriber special.

Clipped from the 1 million sub special, "Etho Plays Minecraft - Episode 283: 1 Million!" (starting at 28:40)

Feedback:

This was my first time doing captioning so please do let me know if there’s anything that can be improved! Even if it’s style-wize bc I’m bad at that stuff.

And as always, let me know if I can improve my video descriptions or transcriptions :)

Video description and transcription below cut:

Video description:

Etho's first-person POV in his 2011 Minecraft Let's Play world. It is night and Etho is on a beach as he introduces the video as well as a celebratory tree sapling placed near the water. The video is a screen recording, and 2013 Etho commentates over it, but is unseen.

———

Cut to a new clip in the same setting. It is nighttime and Etho places a torch on a path of dirt blocks, lighting the area. The dirt blocks connect to the top of the tree, now grown, with a mob trap on top (a pressure plate surrounded by 4 doors). Etho walks through the trap and down some dirt steps. He walks around the dim-lit beach as older Etho laughs at him.

———

Cut to a new clip in the same setting. It is day now and Etho is on top of the tree, trying to lead a creeper into the mob trap. He breaks the door closest to the creeper, the creeper jumps and Etho backs away. The creeper explodes, bringing Etho to three and a half hearts, and destroying the top of the tree. As older Etho reacts in amusement, young Etho looks at the tree in shock, opens his inventory, drops a dirt block, and jumps down to the beach. A zombie floats in the water, and Etho tries to attack it with his sword, but is killed by the zombie.

———

Cut to a new clip in the same setting. It is day and Etho stands on the beach looking at the tree. The leaves have been reconstructed with wool and the entire thing is on fire. Etho jumps around as he watches the wool burn away. A piece of TNT is revealed in the center of the tree, and when lit by the fire, it explodes in a flurry of white and black particles, taking a chunk of the beach with it. Etho walks over and looks down at the destruction as older Etho pauses the video in amusement.

Young Etho: Hello everyone. Etho here again with episode nine of our Let's Play minecraft adventures

Etho: Ah, the voice is so different

Young Etho: And uh, before we can do anything this episode... I noticed, I just passed one thousand subscribers on YouTube

Etho: Oh, don't rub your nose

Young Etho: A thousand!

Etho: Woww

Young Etho: I'm blown away

Etho: Me too!

Young Etho: Over a thousand people willingly choose to watch me do crazy, stupid stuff in this game

Etho: *chuckles*

Young Etho: And I think that is just awesome

Etho: I don't know how you did it

Young Etho: So thanks to everybody who's- who is subscribing. And uh, please continue watching. We'll have lots of fun together.

Etho: Mhmm

Young Etho: And, uh, to celebrate the event, I planted this tree

Etho: *laughs*

Young Etho: to commoderate [commemorate] it

Etho: Alright

Young Etho: And...

Etho: Here it comes

Young Etho: It's gonna be a great tree ^-^

Etho: *laughs loudly* Needed a long pause there for emphasis

———

Etho: Yes! And a torch, he placed a torch! *laughs* I love how it's pitch black and you can't see anything.

Young Etho: Okay. So this is where the guest of honor's gonna sit.

Etho: And you've got an inventory full of torches and you're not using them. *laughs*

Young Etho: I really wish we got a better tree out of this, but whatever

Etho: I wish we could see

———

Etho: *laughs loudly* Aww special ruined. I- I was so, so sad. I didn't know what to do. What do I do now?

I- I'm not talking at all. It's just like... I failed. I failed. *laughs*

———

Young Etho: Awesome!!!

Etho: *laughs* Having the time of my life here. And a piece of TNT goes off. *laughs* And that was my special

Young Etho: Party's over, time to clean up

Etho: Aww, so good. *laughs* So good. How things have changed!

forgot to post these blorblos on my tumblr lol

guess who i draw excessively

it’s gonna be outdated in two days when someone new joins the series, watch

my problem is that i dont want to be a professional artist but i also have never wanted to do anything but be an artist

Your art is so so wonderful thank you single-handedly feeding my etho addiction. I could talk UHC Etho / Etho lore all day long. In your drawings Etho sometimes has that eye bandage- do you headcanon that he sustained the injury in his final UHC? Do you have any other headcanons surrounding it, like does it affect him in other later series?

hello!!! thank you so much for the kind words :'D

my original idea was that the injury led him to step back from uhcs

but then i thought it'd be more interesting if the eye injury actually came from pause's kill on him in s15! idk! maybe the injury hindered him during s16 and was the final sign that he should probably just retire lmao

but at the end of the day, i forget to draw his scar 90% of the time, so i don't have too many other ideas after that o(-(

bdubz and his two ugly radioactive cats - tryn to explore their designs i need to try drawing other members tho (ᵕ—ᴗ—)

Etho answered my question on quantum physics!!!

I cannot even begin to describe how meaningful this is. I sincerely hope he’s inspired to learn more and through this he can inspire others too. Quantum physics was a key factor in changing my life and how I see the universe, the world, other people, and myself.

Even learning about just really basic stuff without getting too much into the math aspect: the double slit experiment, quantum entanglement, how water can react to sound, frequencies in general. It’s incredible and fascinating and thought provoking.

I’m so honored that he answered my question!

Also his new video is really cute and fun, go check it out!
