This will be amazing, I can't wait :)
One can only imagine the shitstorms to be had from certain people (Y U GO TO DARK SIDE?). Their rage will sustain me.

Let's hope there's none of that. Sorry for the lack of your sustaining rage.

Wait, where's the potential for rage here? Just asking for my own amusement :)

Florastar and Slowpoke are relatively well known in the Forge mod community - Flora for her mastery of Forestry's Bees, and Slowpoke for being the creator of the Feed the Beast map. Jadedcat and I have manage to capture befriend them, and now we're making a joint video series, corrupting teaching them how to play Better Than Wolves. ;)

So, there's indeed potential for rage. If it shows up, I have a spiky exoskeleton.

Thanks for the explanation Morv! I'm not at all familiar with the whole Forge video scene, so this is all news to me.

Oooo...this sounds like it's going to be good :)

Well, I'm certainly glad that I'll have you watching. :) The videos will be posted on Florastar's channel instead of mine, so make sure you subscribe to her guys! I imagine the biggest comment will be "Y U JOIN DARKSIDE?!" in her direction. Besides, you guys know I'd never leave you.

Well, I'm sure I'll take my usual dose of abuse in the comments, so I'll be sure to bring my exoskeleton along as well ;)

I enjoy watching Morvy, I can't see why Flora would be much different, except that she's coming into a different mod. I'll get an ashtray and a comfy chair.

Being a DW20 fan I have already seen some of Flora's Minecraft prowess, and it won't disappoint! She's awesome.

I think I'll watch this; haven't really been watching LPs recently, but it'll be nice to see a new point of view when it comes to BTW :)

*stretches*

Hmm? Oooo, now this -does- sound interesting. I'll be sure to check it out during my lunch break tomorrow! I've kinda stopped watching LP's a while ago, but I have always enjoyed multi-player LP's the most as there is usually more content than the usual "check out my stuff" or "this is how you build this" kind of stuff.

Morv, I believe I owe you an apology, for I have only watched the first episode of your LP series. :( I'm sorry.





......florastar... why does that sound familiar..... wait... are you -the- florastar direwolf20 keeps talking about? Dude, I am so totally watching this LP now. (I managed to watch over 50 episodes of direwolf's LP over the summer... I was bored. oh so bored)


Hey, morv, since you managed to 'convert' florastar, do you think you could possibly ply your magic talent on direwolf? Ya know, see if you can't persuade him to do a BTW LP of his own?

Ha! Well, you'll have to spend some time and catch up with my LP :P

And honestly, I don't know where this will go. I earnestly hope that this does bring our communities a little closer together in the end, but I don't really know where it's going to go.

I'm remembering a long section of a video where Slowpoke discussed at length not liking vanilla piston elevators (and basically all vanilla redstone mechanisms), how did he ever agree to this?

Honestly, jaded, morv and I were talking about it in the channel Slow was in on TS, and he mentioned he was jealous that I got the idea put together first, so we asked if he wanted to join us. :D He did.

I like the peninsula spawn. I'm getting a Mont Saint Michel vibe from it. All thats missing is some tidal mechanics.

Very excited to see this nice collaboration of BTW folks with well known forge-mod folks to showcase BTW!

At the very least maybe some players will see what BTW really is and even if they don't prefer that playstyle they may see it as just a different way to play minecraft.

Just watched it, and I laughed my buttocks off at all the "Wait, what? Chickens don't breed? What's this about buckets?" stuff going on. This definitely promises to be a lot of fun to watch!

Oh, and an aside, when Flora(?) exclaimed about getting jumped by a kitten, my response was "Bad morv! Stop jumping people!" I chuckled heartily.
