I've got fraps going and have successfully recorded a couple test videos. I just plugged in the headset but fraps isn't recognizing it yet.

edit...I've recorded a test video with me talking, now I'm going to try and convert it.

edit 2...success!

I will not be the first one dead this time. No sir. I will sit in a hole and wait until at least one other person dies first if I have to.

Edit: BTW, we should keep track of contest winners. Who won the first one, anyway?

Has anyone PMed you the rules? Ultra Hardcore plays a bit differently than single-player Minecraft.

The major things to keep in mind are:

- You can only regain health (health, not food/energy) by eating a golden apple, or drinking health regen potions. Filling your food bar up to its max won't regen any of your health.

- Once you hit 0 food, you will start taking damage. This is the same as Minecraft in hard mode, but worse, because you can't regen that health by just refilling your food bar.

- Make a golden apple with a regular apple in the center, surrounded by gold bars (not gold nuggets, like regular Minecraft). This is even harder to do.

- Kill, kill, kill! Last man (or woman) standing, wins.

- I believe there is no branch or strip mining (as in, don't mine in straight lines (branches) into the ground; instead, look for caves, and mine in those)). This keeps people moving around and not just spending the whole match mining underground.

- I also believe Rathji raised the level gold is found at. Not sure, he can confirm.

Congrats, It is quite the experience when doing your first video and posting it. I am really starting to get a few followers on my Minecraft Let's Play and it is wonderful reading the comments and communicating with them.

Nope, standard world generated.

I also want to add a new rule that until the end of the first night (we start at 6:00 am game time) there is no pvp. This is just in case the random spawn plugin I hav used puts some of us really close together.

I will be double check that things work right this afternoon, before we start, because i had to redo a bunch of settings last week. I won't be on until right before 7:00, since the wife decided we were having a BBQ today.

Ya I was pretty happy with how easy it came together. I think it's going to make these hardcore games a lot more fun.

And what texture pack are you using Rathji?

Hey guys, I have to drop off. My roommates threw a surprise birthday party (for me) today.

I'm very sorry for the last minute warning.

GG guys, I'm just glad I didn't die first. Damn zombie got me down in a lava filled crevice full of diamonds and gold. Well, I'll do better next time.

Was certainly nerve wrecking.

I would still take you down :P

My friends threw the party today instead of the weekend. I was kinda disappointed that I missed this.

How long did it last?

It's still going. Hanni and happygolucky are still left.

Sucks you had to miss it. Dodger got me this time. I put up a bit better effort, but still made a stupid/fatal mistake.

I'm down for playing again tonight if there's enough interest.

I think we ended up going close to 2.5 hours and I won, yay! I've got 55 gb of video to get processed and uploaded, I'll start the process tomorrow night. Now I need to calm down, that was intense.

Thanks to Rathji for the server and setup once again, and thanks for the game everyone, was really fun.

My video again doesn't have sound, which is stupid because I fixed that problem before. I will probably run through and do a commentary though.

When do we want to release first one?

I've been playing around with mine and should have it ready tonight. I cut it off at the 30 min mark, and because we started late it's only going to be roughly 15 minutes long.

Should we start a separate season 2 thread, or keep this one going?

edit....I'm uploading to youtube now and it says it's going to take almost 2 hours. Is this normal? The file is 15 min and just over 2 gigs.
