  • Published on

The code words are settled: avocado means run, guacamole means charge. This episode tests whether anyone can remember which is which. The counter opens at Scoti 135, Basket 117.

Blindness and a lookout

They go left. The white smoke was waiting when they got in, then it vanishes. "Where did it go?" They clear the spawners on that side and wake up a fresh batch of creepers. "Run away, run away, run away."

The smoke comes back, and then the blindness hits. "Oh god, I forgot about the blindness." "Avocado, I can't see." One of them works out where it comes from: "you don't want to stand next to the other, the sword guys, they drop the blindness."

One of them heads back for more water. On the way, Basket's screen passes a ladder running up the wall beside a crafting table, with a sign pointing up.

The barred room

The plan for the barred, gated room is to clear the creepers and then charge in. "I've got my water bucket ready for the lava." The water helps, but not enough. "There's still a lava fall. I'm going in." It gets messy fast. "Okay, I'm falling back." Then: "Awesome, bang." Chat confirms it.

"I vote we advance." One of them takes out a creeper spawner right away and opens up the next room.

Guacamole means what?

The next push runs into fast creepers. "Oh avocado. Oh my god, sprint, please." They decide to go around the other way. A spawner one of them wants gone sits near the smoke, and that plan dies quickly. "No! Alright, so skip that for now."

Then the smoke sneaks up from behind. "Smoke monster right behind me! Why didn't you tell me guacamole, dude?" "I said let's go." The other one points out the problem. "We've set up a code word for a reason." It takes a second try to settle it: "The code word is avocado. I nearly died."

So they run back toward the start, regroup, and try again with the right word. "I think the appropriate word is guacamole!" Around then, without either of them mentioning it, a second shrine line shows up in chat.

A room the smoke can't enter

On the next run, Basket misses a jump over some fire, and gets a rhyme for it. "Basket be nimble, Basket be quick, Basket didn't jump over the candlestick."

The room ahead is "a little bit different than the other rooms." There's a pit with lava in it, creepers spawning in the back right, and spawners hidden around. One of them falls in and comes out okay. Then a creeper goes over the edge. "Charge creeper fell down, good job, man. Good job with the water." Then they find stairs going down, and "invisible endermen."

Nobody is in a hurry to go down. "Is the smoke monster able to come in here?" They walk to the door to check. "Can you come in here, smoke monster?" "This is a safe zone."

They stop there, with the stairs still waiting. No deaths this episode: the counter opens and ends at Scoti 135, Basket 117. Chat shows "You have destroyed a shrine." twice. The monument isn't shown, so the totals carry over: 15 of 16 crystals and 10 of 12 emerald blocks.
