- Thanks for watching, I've realized this is going to be a lot more about the journey and the story than any individual speedrun. So I need to figure out how to tell the best story of the journey to 100k :)

i love how obsessed he is with that piglin clip and i'm so glad i was there when it happened
Same
which one? also do you have the timestamp?
@@AK_8043:37 but dude; the video is 5 minutes long.. just watch it
@@AK_804 ‘The most insane day of no reset’ on his vods channel, around 4:19:00
@@AK_804 @3:37. I was there live too! So crazy!
just a heads-up, I'm subbed and love watching your vids, but I literally never watch shorts. I suspect the two audiences may be at least partly separate
yes same
same
can confirm, i watch the shorts everyday but i can't recall the last time i got a full-length couriway video recommendation
This is what i've realized as well, and is one of the reaosns i've realized it's just not worth the time commitment from a creator level, sure i may be slowly growing a new audience but my larger old audience is getting nothing
Exactly , great realisation.
I liked the shorts but I never would have imagined that it took 5 hours to make. I can understand why you might let the series go but as you mentioned hiring an editor might be a viable alternative. In the end the choice is yours and i appreciate that you are putting in the thought. Keep it up man
I agree. Maybe the shorts will get some people into it as well, and I think they are a great engaging format to keep people engaged in your 100k speedrun Journey, but 5h ain't worth it. Maybe if you had an editor you could keep doing this or do the highlight run of the day? But then you would still spend at least an hour with voice over etc I guess
I just found your 1000 runs YT video recently, actually loved it, and am working through a lot of your content now, based on that one video. So I'm glad you can and will be posting more of that. The emotional journey you go on during that video was something special -- I can't properly describe it in words. It's something that UA-cam is sorely lacking. UA-cam can teach us anything, from how to change a tire on a car, or how to make risotto, or how to build an iron farm in Minecraft.
But what you brought here and posted is more than that. It's a lesson on how to keep going, how to finish what you start. Even when it's hard. Even when you fail, fuck up, or glitch out. How to put your headphones down and leave the room for a moment. How to get a glass of water and come back stronger. How to turn off your camera and be open about your mental health. You seem like a really great role model for young Minecraft players who come on UA-cam.
This is one of my favorite youtube comments i've ever gotten over doing this for 10 years. Thank you so much :)
You’re not alone in feeling this, it sounds funny but the Minecraft 1000 no reset runs. I’ve started applying this mindset to my personal life and it has improved my mental health. One of the things I took away from it was don’t get so wrapped up in the successes of the past that you put so much pressure on yourself, failure is not an end state it’s a chance to get better and move forward. You either can sit in that failure and stagnate or take the one step and evolve.
I just wanted to say thank you for the great content recently. Even if the daily shorts will be missing, it's certainly better for you not to use the whole day for a 50-second video. Just make the content you want, I'm looking forward to it! ❤
missed this a while back, thank you so much!
Idk why but i like listening to couriway talk. Its kind of like rekrap, hes just calming
This sounds epic, WE RESPECT AND LOVE YOUR DECISION. Just don’t loose track on your mental. 😊
I'm really glad to see your long content coming again!! You don't understand how much I loved those vids lol, they actually were one of the few things that made me keep playing Minecraft back then, so it's great to see they're coming again. The shorts were so amazing for real, but it's completely understandable if you can't or don't want to keep doing them at that consistency.
And I'm really excited, that's all I have to say! Bests of luck on your runs Couri. 👑🐐
I never thought it would take 5 hours to make any of these shorts honestly! I've always loved your content, been watching your videos since Covid actually. I actually created a twitch account to watch your streams because I enjoyed your 1000 runs challenge videos! Keep up the amazing work! I'll be here till you complete 100k for sure!!
If you want to involve YT audience more with Livestreams/ 100k, I can think of 2 things that might help.
1) I've seen some creators stream to Twitch and UA-cam at the same time. This basically lets a bunch of your regular UA-cam viewers, who may not be scrolling Twitch, have notifications on, etc., know when you go live.
2) If this isn't something you can do, you could also try sending out a community post or community poll with a link to your Twitch channel right before you go live on Twitch, to let them know that you are currently live.
It's against twitch partner tos to stream to both at once (meaning it wouldn't make him any money)
2nd one is okay tho
@@GhPh- nah twitch changed that
@@GhPh-It is not, it is just that the contracts of most huge twitch streamers don't allow them to. It changes from contract to contract. For example, Pokimane's contract used to limit her to stream exclusively on twitch, but it ran out recently and she will start multistreaming to yt.
Huh, didn't know that.
I absolutely love the 100k no reset streams. Literally some of my favorite streams to watch on twitch. Can't wait to be around for the long run!
I never watch shorts, and I would love to see the stream highlight videos come back, it was so good back in the day
agree, the 1000 no reset vids are what got me in into mcsr, and i love watching couri
Ive loved watching the daily shorts but i loved the old compilations of the 1k runs even more, so i would really enjoy if they came back!
This is super cool and exciting!! the 1000 speedrun videos were probly my favorite videos of yours, I keep rewatching them over and over, so it's super cool to hear that there will maybe be more content of the challenge on UA-cam. also I love your videos you are so cool
Its okay, you can take breaks like 5-6 hours is a lot of shorts! Ive been supporting you forever
I loved the shorts series, but it’s understandable why it has to go, I’m excited for the future 100k videos, I hope you get a lot of views because you deserve it, you are the goat couri
I honestly really like watching the full speedruns. Shorts are just not my thing and I enjoy longer content, and I hope to stick around for all of this!! I don't like using twitch because of the ads but I often go back to vods on yt to watch, so if you ever go back to streaming here I'll probably be watching! 💚💚
through your 100k journey you are learning the nuance of minecraft at a faster rate than those who constantly reset. your consistency and experience makes you a top pick for mc events and teaching speedrunning.
getting home and opening your twitch stream is already part of my routine and i really like it and look forward to it. in 2021 when i started watching your content, i wasn't watching your youtube highlight videos as much, specially because i had already seen most of them, but i did like them and would watch from time to time
Absolutely love your contet for how much of a cool guy you are and how unique and fun your editing style is and everything else you do. So really just thank you for uploading this video and really take the time you need with finding your type of content you want to upload. I will most probably still very much enjoy whatever type you choose. Keep it up man your the best
You are my favourite creator Couriway, I've been enjoying the shorts but I know I'll enjoy long videos as well, cant wait to continue watching you and being part of your community for as long into the future as I can see currently
just started watching your content on different platforms and I love every minute of it, even started playing the game myself, ty for your work and dedication❤
it is so cool to be one of the people to have been here for the start of the challenge, it is always cool to watch couriway stream, HE IS A LEGENED!!
I'm excited about this new direction of Couriway content! The original 1000k challenge was what first brought me here and this sounds like it will be close to it but with a new spin. Sounds perfect! :D
I really like your videos Coury, not just for the content but for you. You are an amazing person and you just spread all the passion you put into minecraft speedruns. I hope you find a way to make cool videos about the 100.000 challenge. I know you will
watching this really grew my respect for you as a creator . I hope the transition goes well, really excited to see how this project develops =)
I really enjoyed the old compilations. That was something I watch while eating or crocheting so I could catch up on the runs. I in general most of the time watch your streams because theyre at the perfect time for me. So I cant really say anything about the shorts. But either way what youre gonna do Ill turn into your streams while crocheting or speedcubing. Youre effortlessly funny and thats one thing I really enjoy. I also feel really invested in the stream and chat eventhough im doing something else. I dont have this with alot of other media/streamerm
Diehard Couriway Fan here. Found you during 1000 runs and been here ever since. Just keep doing what you like and other people who feel the same will enjoy watching it. I know I do!
Loved the shorts but love ur long form content and ur decision is prob the best
Love you bro, we re will watch everything you post
the way you just casually said “this could take 40-50 years” 😂
I’ve been a fan for almost 4 years and you have a crazy work ethic I hope you crack the code and get more recognition because this is the coolest minecraft challenge ever
We love what you do couri
I think storytelling is the answer. I realize not all the speedruns you do have unique stories to tell, but that's okay, obviously quality is better than quantity (1 video that gets a million views is better than 10 videos that get 50k).
This is already pretty apparent in your content. One of your most viewed shorts is when you hit the boat clutch: You have a clear objective right at the start (not dying), ppl want to know how you're going do it, there's a good amount of build up/suspense, and then the payoff is something really cool that most ppl haven't seen before. Perfect structure for a story (whether you did that on purpose or not lol) and also gives people a reason to watch to the end, which obviously the algorithm likes.
This strategy is also pretty abundant across UA-cam's long form content (ex. Dream, Sipover, SmallAnt, and all the trillions of "100 Day Hardcore" UA-cam channels). They all prioritize doing something that no ones ever done and then telling an interesting story. So in that regard, you could try inventing interesting challenges for yourself that you have to do on a new seed. Obv nothing that breaks the rules of your challenge, but will add an extra layer of interest, to reach a wider audience and help you tell that story.
As for shorts, it's kinda stupid how the algorithm works. I'd honestly say only upload whenever something crazy happens (like the piglin incident, the boat clutch, etc). The "wow factor" of those clips will carry, and will end up getting 10x the views of a video you spent 5 hours on lol (I'm not saying don't edit those clips at all, just that you should let the interesting content come at it's own pace, instead of trying to stick to a daily schedule).
I hope you see this, because I love all your videos, but I’m sorry that I had no idea that your shorts series existed lol, but I never watch shorts, so yeah. But I’m glad you found that maybe making shorts wasn’t for you and I’m super excited for everything that is to come! I don’t watch your streams often because the timezones are whacky over here in Australia, but keep up the speedrunning stuff, love you couri! 💜💜💜
i looked forward to those shorts every morning, but i TOTALLY understand if it takes that long.
Respect bud I personally am a huge fan of yours so will watch anything but i hope everything goes great
Love your vids! I have never seen a single one of your shorts
I understand doing Stream+content for youtube DAILY is waaaaaaaaaaayyyyy too much. Im sure you will find the perfect balance between content for youtube, twitch and time for you. Letsgo Couriway!! :)
I absolutely love your passion for this challenge in particular. Resets make the game boring to watch, but following through with every seed really makes for some excitement and opportunity for unique runs
As I move on with real life, I reflected on the time I spent on MCSR with much enjoyment but the realization that there are many skills I want to work on in order to be the best version of myself. MCSR has never been something I excelled with or wanted to take so seriously and I don't want to look back on it with frustration or contempt. The support groups, friends I've made, streamers I've viewed have all given me great experiences which I'm grateful for and won't forget. I feel like MCSR gives a lot to those willing to commit to it and it humbles the people that learn everything they can to improve on everything they are. Thanks for everything Couriway
5-6 hours for a short is so much time, totally understandable decision man! Whatever content you put out, I'll watch.
i havent been watching recently since my school has started again but i cant wait to see where you take the channel ^_^
I first started watching ur streams around 300 seeds into the 1k challenge. Although I do not tune into streams very often nowadays, I still am so grateful for getting to know the community you've built and being an active part of it for a while. As silly as it sounds I was really struggling mentally at the time and working through a lot of my issues alone. Your content helped me take my mind off of things I had going on and relax. I cannot stress enough how much I looked forward to your streams every day. Having something like that waiting for me made it easier to get through the tough stuff. It's been a long time since then and without going into details I can say that I've healed from those things and am in such a better place. I wouldn't have been able to get through that tough start without this community and your hard work. For that I will always be so so beyond grateful. Thank you for all of the entertainment and support your platform has provided for me over the years. I still love all of your content and I'm looking forward to see what you've got planned for the future. I absolutely loved being part of the 1k series. I always loved the videos from it too! I think it's a great idea to make more vids with the 100k challenge. I will for sure be watching them all! Thank you again, Couri. Take care and keep up the great work 🖤
I‘ve kinda made the shorts a part of my daily routine, but what you want to do all ways comes first before the small amount of people who watch shorts, keep doing what you want to do, we will stick around for it.
Couriway. You are one of my favourite UA-camrs and I loved watching your date speedruns. I understand why you can’t keep it up. The effort that it would take to produce daily at that quality is insane. Just keep up the good content and I know that everyone, myself included obv, loves you!
I really enjoy the 100k challenge. I miss the streams, sad I haven't been able to watch recently but I always enjoyed the videos you posted for the 1000 seeds speedrun
Let's gooo, I was here when you first announced your 100k speedrun challenge, and I'm still here babyy. I might not be able to watch your twitch streams cause college stuff, but i will still support you for how many 40-50 years you'll be doing this lmao.
Also, I hope I'll be able to donate you one day on twitch.
I appreciate you, man.
for me the beauty of the 100k runs is whenever im watching your streams there is often some silly or cool detail of a seed that makes me grateful it was played. like if any other speedrunner generated that seed with the perfectly placed dungeon in the stronghold with the stairs leading right to it, they literally would have never known and it would of been lost. so i think showcasing the value in even seeds that were doomed to a "slow" completion from the start would engage people in the challenge
Your content is genuinely my favourite from any MCSR youtuber. You're so funny and engaging, and you never fail to bring me joy. Whatever the future holds, i look forward to being able to watch any youtube content you put out. Thanks Couriway :)
Wow, thank you!
I was watching your 1000 runs no reset videos back when you were doing them, due to timezones I have difficulty catching your streams, so I used those videos to keep up. Loved that content, I personally dont watch short form content, anything less than 8 minutes doesnt really engage me, but I look forward to seeing the future content
Bro, you’re my favorite UA-camr let’s goo
Speedruns!!!!
I’m working on how to speed run myself
Bro you’ve been doing so well on yt recently! Don’t be too down man.
Hello couri! I watch your livestreams all the time, but I usually am a lurker, but it's really inspiring how far you've made it! Also not really related to this video, but one the very last hunt and run, and tuned in to your stream and I saw you talk about your mom, and I just wanna say you deserve the upmost best. You're such a wholesome and kind person, and your resilience is so inspiring. Like, I created a new Minecraft world just messing around recently and I was just trying to get full iron. I was making really good progress, but I died due to a skeleton, and I almost just quit the world right then and there, but then I remembered how you never ever quit on your worlds until the dragon died. It was hard at first because I thought about all the progress I had to do again, but I focused on just taking it one step at a time, and managed to get full iron. Thank you Couri for all you do! Keep being you.
edit: I just wanna say that I'll probably watch whatever you do! Very excited to see your future content :). I actually never really watched the shorts, but I'm glad you're prioritizing bigger and better things.
It's sad to see the daily speedruns come to an end, but since the beginning, I've loved the commitment you've had to speedrunning minecraft. I love how you just love the game enough to run it until you're dead, and IM SO SAD I MISS SO MANY STREAMS!!!! I think bringing both of your UA-cam and Twitch passions together is amazing both for you and the Couri enjoyers who cant catch every stream. Keep it up, Couri!! And the true enjoyers will be here all the way.
Loved your insideMC ep :)
Honestly when I saw that you had started making shorts, I was surprised, mostly because I had never pictured your content going that direction
I would have never imagined it took 5 HOURS per short
I really enjoyed the shorts, but I subbed because of your longer videos and I can firmly say I approve of this direction of content
Of course I am just a random commenter who you are under no obligation to listen to
Been watching for a while now, you have the best speedrun content on yt and cant wait for longer videos to come back!
Imo the videos I watch are ur reaction videos. I like those because they are entertaining and also very educational . Keep it up 👍
Honestly glad to hear this. I'm definitely more of a long form content kind of person, shorts were never really that appealing to me. Can't really put on a short to watch while eating dinner😂
I think the most important thing is that you’re passionate about the content that you’re putting out. While I absolutely adore your shorts, I think you’ve made a good decision with ending that series, mainly because it does take so much time away from other things. As you know by now, I’m a diehard Couriway fan, and I’ll stick around no matter what content you’re putting out! Love everything you do, man. Keep up the good work :]
(Also! If you ever find yourself in a pinch and need a temporary editor or anything, feel free to reach out to me! I have some experience with editing videos, and I’m in film school rn so I’d like to think I’m a decently reliable source. Ofc this comment could go absolutely unseen, and that’s perfectly alright. I just thought I’d offer my help where I’m able to :])
I love the 100000 series. I’m in Australia, so I mostly watch it on the vods. I love it because I can jump in at any point and haven’t missed a lot, game play wise. I love it too, when you use the runs to explain how speedrunning works, and I think other people really enjoy that too. Duo speedruns are also super interesting and exiting to watch (and I know ranked doesn’t count, but I do love watching you play ranked). I do think a new, updated ‘how to speedrun’ series via the 100000k would be a really good way to bring in new viewers, but also be interesting to the ones who have been here for a while
couriway is literally going to be in a retirement home by the time the 100k speedruns are finished
I used to do this Couri! Focus on yourself! When it starts coming a chore, freshen it up my bro!
With you always couri!
Waiting for the next one!
Do what makes you happy Couri. Also, I'm so happy i was there for the piglins, such an iconic clip lol
Dude I love your videos, just do what you like more
I freaking love 100k highlights man
I loved the funny moments of the challenge, like to see more of those
mr. way, whatever you post i will watch. i first found you from speedrunning 2021 as a seed and i have become a huge fan ever since. i watch the streams whenever i can and i proud to say i witnessed the piglin entity cramming. i have even gotten into mcsr ranked and started watching doog, rowl, hackingnoises and many others because of you. keep up the amazing work and much love. widepeepo 💚
It’s important to do what you enjoy! Utmost respect for the decision.
your dedication is so fucking inspiring ❤
I really enjoyed the 1,000 game challenge so I’m looking forward to more content! ❤
i will be sad to not have as many of the speedrunning the day as a minecraft seed. but it makes sense by a content creation perspective. i love your videos always no matter what.
This is great! Take some time, you don’t have to pressure yourself so much
Hey. Love seeing your stuff. Period. End of story. Love to see long form content, short form, streams. Just keep going forward
Thank you so much!
An idea I have is to maybe take certain runs you have a connection to, or meet a certain goal with, then make that it's own video. I really enjoyed the overview of the original 1,000 seeds, and doing that for each 1,000 would be great to look forward to, but hearing you share your thought process during certain runs that meant a lot can also be a nice middle ground
Honestly I would watch the raw video of date as a minecraft seed everyday. I like watching your minecraft speedruns.
they'll be up on my 2nd channel!
Thank you for the shorts series. It was great while it lasted.
I think it could be interesting if you did the daily runs on stream before the no resets. That way we can get a bit more engaged in it.
Sounds good Couri. I'll still be here in 40 years (7 runs/day every day) when you finish the challenge.
I like when you analyze your runs like you analyze world record runs
"Disheveled..." bro looks great
I always liked those moments where you called feinberg 'nerd' in your stream
I was watching a recent short a few days ago and it hit me like, damn, these shorts have an absurd amount of tightly packed editing, cuts, sfx, imagery and even more, these shorts are a TON of work, how is he oumping out these so regularly? How long do these take him?
I think it'd be best for everyone (so long as it's not a massive unnecessary money sink; so long as theres Value in it) if you got an oursourced editor for the daily shorts, so the workload for them is massively reduced and we all get to enjoy the daily couri runs :) but if it's not worthwhile (minimal engagement and/or money) then don't worry about it, i think we'd all much prefer your UA-cam revenue to go towards you having a more stable future anyways.
I absolutely love the 100k series, though I don't really use Twitch all too often so UA-cam videos have been my go-to for keeping up with it. I'm probably a minority in that regard but if you could bring it back here - maybe every now and then, with a smaller challenge/objective within a featured run or something (ex: defeat the dragon with purple beds, no boats, only vegan food, etc) a youtube audience might be more engaged with it. Just a thought :)
Best wishes couri
Everything is alright. I watch litereally everything from you
Complication of best moments of last 10 runs❤
Yo couri, just wanted to say that your stream audience honestly, doesn't this change, it makes streaming more regular and highlights higher quality.
Also piglin clip was wild im so happy i was there lol
No matter what you do we will always love your content
couri, we're sticking around for the long run, you do what makes you happy because that in turn makes the rest of us happy, can't wait to be there 50 years down the line watching run 99,999 ❤luv u king
shorts are crazy amount of work for what feels like dead subs and no revenue, I can't wait to see the cool videos that you end up making !!
Great video, do what you love, Goat!
I’ve been honestly super missing the 100k content, I really miss the old style of content with one or two featured runs in a video. I’ve gone back and watched the old original 1K seeds videos so many times, but it’s just not the same with all of the old strats. It’s not as easy for me to catch streams so though I love watching you play a seed on the fly in full it’s not easy, so I always enjoy the videos a ton. Really hope you can make this work Couri, you’re super entertaining and talented and deserve all of the success.
Definitely the right decision, preferred the usual much over the shorts :)
i always loved the 1000 days videos, but one of the things I liked most about them is that each one had something unique they brought to it, like the first successful zero in the challenge, that one block clutch in the bridge bastion, or that time when you got like 6 treasures. I think it would be cool if you reused that style with something uniquely funny or cool in one of the runs, like something similar to that one piglin clip, or something like "oh its our first ground zero," or "we used bt and portal divine and eye spied on our first portal." Although it might seem repetitive to the person seeing what goes on behind the scenes (because sure, most likely each run, you will enter the nether with lava, go to a bastion and a fortress, find the stronghold, and one cycle), but with your editing style, everything feels fresh and new to the viewer. And I think this even applies to your average viewer outside of MCSR. I know a couple of my friends and one of my younger cousins found your channel when you did 1000 days, and they all enjoyed those videos and started watching your channel more, even though they don't know much beyond the basics to a Minecraft speedrun.
I really enjoyed the shorts format
good luck!
i'm glad that the 100k challenge will be marketed mroe! though i am definatly sad to see the shorts, at least temporarily, leave
Im happy you’re back
Those lockouts with smant were fun, that could be an idea for varying things every once in a while
Ngl I didn't even know you were doing shorts despite being subbed this whole time. I feel like my shorts tab has nothing to do with who I'm subbed to
I’ve only been watching the shorts bc I missed your longer content so I’m totally fine with this
That being said I do like the speedrunning the date series, I’d watch the full run of each
