Day five of the Hostile Mob Museum, Michael Deering's April 2015 Minecraft Hardcore Challenge. The team is out to catch hostile mobs and cage them at its cobblestone base. The morning is clear and the team is gathered at the base. "So we survived." "Do we still have that spider?"
A spider in the pit
The base has a cobblestone pit dug into the ground beside the wall, and the job is to get the spider into it. PaisleyPlayfully, Scoti_Garbidis and PsychoSFK are all out on the grass by nameplate. "Punch it with your fists and knock it in." The spider reaches the edge and drops in. "Alright, keep going, come on. Good job. Good team." Basket switches to cobblestone. "We should cover it up more, probably."
Water for a skeleton
Next on the list: "Do we need a skeleton?" "Yes, yes, we still need a skeleton." One turns up in daylight. "He's got full armor on." Basket pours water and the current carries the skeleton toward the cells, with Sayulily on the wall beside it. "Don't put him in the one that the zombies are going in." "Oh, there's a second one." Arrows fly and Basket's health drops, but the first skeleton ends up in a narrow cell of its own, standing in water.
Basket crafts a golden helmet. "Give him a golden helmet maybe." "No, he doesn't pick up stuff." The talk turns to what's left: a silverfish, and a big cage that's "for the creeper." "I'm making a portal over here." Basket spends a while digging down into the stone with the diamond pickaxe. "I was digging for a silverfish."
Out in the dark
By sunset the plan is to check another dungeon for a name tag. Basket heads out with Scoti_Garbidis and PsychoSFK, both named by their nameplates, through a birch forest at night. A spider crawls out of the dark. "There's a witch behind you." "Keep on going forward." "Skeleton straight in front of us."
They dig down. "My pickaxe broke. Do you have any iron?" After that, Basket is swinging a stone pickaxe. "Oh, God, I fell! Put water down!" Water goes down the shaft. "I hear baby zombies." "Sounds like it might be a skeleton spawner."
The skeleton dungeon
It's skeletons all right. Basket fights them in a narrow stone tunnel with the stone sword. "Got one. There's one in butter armor. I got a second one. Third one." The tunnel opens into a mossy dungeon with a spawner and a chest. Torches go down around the spawner, with Scoti_Garbidis beside it. "Saddles, record and some string." Basket spots blue ore in the wall. "This is our first lapis."
Up the water
The way out is a water column in the dark. Max_Writer types "Morning" in chat, and Scoti_Garbidis adds "awesome! 1 more name tag! WE are signing off!" Basket climbs out next to a pond in the birch forest with Scoti_Garbidis and PsychoSFK as Max_Writer, Sayulily and PaisleyPlayfully leave the game. Basket ends day five alive.
The grave for pikerize still hasn't appeared on screen. The end credits follow, with no gameplay after them.
