Roboscar was a masterpiece! The fact that the organisers were willing to include him in that way when he wasn't able to travel was just amazing
that was absolutely amazing. but i'm also not as surprised as i would be, because they're a charity that works with kids in hospitals. so they're more aware then most of disabilities. but i'm so grateful and proud of them for going out of their way to make sure Scar was present in a big way.
well, Scar did help set up the 1st one, and raised almost half a million for them. So he probably has his own plaque at their home office.
The charity stream was an incredible achievement! I'm so proud to be a tiny part of this wonderful community.
I love how much Skizz sounds like a dad, worried about eyes getting shot by nerf bullets.
Ikr lol my immature butt wouldn't have even thought for a second to " be careful" with nerf guns .
That's why GeminiTay calls Skizz, Impulse and Tango her "Arizona Dads".
I can't tell you how much I cried when I saw Scar turn around and all of you were together in person. How hard it is for everyone to get together in one place, getting Pearl, everyone from Europe... Remembering how you guys spoke about the 2016 Minecon and how you were afraid you may never seen those people again, and there you are, together again. It made my heart so full.
I wasn't expecting it, then Scar pointed out Grian in the background, then I saw Joe, and everyone just appeaered and from that moment on I just had a huge smile on my face. I was, still am, so happy for them. And I'm also glad they all spent time together outside of the charity event as well. The energy in that room, the energy of that event/stream... was just unmatched.
I got my boys a sign on the monolith, we saw it on Tango's stream and they went crazy. They were so excited to feel part of Hermitcraft
Boundaries are important! Just because you choose to be in the public eye and create content and art, it doesn't mean your entire life is an open book. Your viewers aren't entitled to know your whole life and it's obvious that you don't have to share your whole lives to be successful (just look at Etho! A legend and has never shared his face on screen). Whatever you decide to share is the exact perfect amount. 💜 My husband got me into watching Hermitcraft and now I've watched more than him. I love seeing all of you grow closer as friends!
❤❤❤
And I do hope Etho manages to stick to it! He started in an era where people having any sort of facecam or social media presence besides their youtube videos was barely a thing. I think it was still a few years out from being anything less than out of the question, even. He's gotten a wonderful resurgence in popularity in recent years, but it does bring a whole new youtube culture with it, and I imagine it might sometimes be hard for him to be so hardline oldschool in a changing ecosystem
Jimmy kept saying skizz was like his dad it was so wholesome
Robo-Scar was the most awesome thing and fitting for him.
okay - the dollar fund raiser to get Grian to say "where are you? And I'm so sorry!"
Don’t forget the moment when Grian put a nerf pistol on jimmies head.
wall-e scar!
Martin is such a great MC I felt so bad for him. He still made the best of it and did a wonderful job. I was happy y’all invited him!!
Why did you feel bad for Martin? Edit: THE ANSWER WAS GIVEN. HE WAS SICK
Probably because he lost his voice
@@tlgx884 Yeah. I missed that the first time. It was great he was there though
His dedication was admirable
@@dragonladyusps he was sick and had already lost his voice before the event
Gamers outreach seemed to have organized the event so well. And it showed what a hermitcon event could be. Hermitcraft reach so many in a positive way and the community is amazing 🙂
I really want to make Hermitcon a thing...
Right! I saw some of the other gamers as well and everyone was very well taken care of and coordinated.
EXACTLY!!!, it would be a good blueprint for future get togethers
I guess one of the most memorable parts was realizing the Hermits are *there* in real life, together in one room.
I remember being a bit curious about why there's so little information about what exactly will happen on the stream, because on the previous one hermits did a lot of prep work on camera(building minigames etc.) so you already got the idea what will happen, and it got me thinking why it's not like that this time, why the schedule was posted a bit late, and starting to watch Scar's stream with not many expectations was what really hit me.
The moment the Hermits entered the screen, the moment I realized how many of them there was, the moment I started recognizing every one of them - my head just exploded. The reveal was insane in the most positive way possible. This memory will be stored in my heart forever, there's really zero words to express fully how cool it actually felt
Exactly the same for me. That moment of realising what the weekend was going to be is an all-time moment.
Same! My daughter was having a hotel birthday sleepover, and I turned the stream on before we had to pack to check out, and I went haywire- “OMGTHEYREALLTOGETEHERLOOKITSGRIANANDSKIZZANDIMPULSEANDJIMMYOMG!” And five 11 year olds looked at me like I had 3 heads. Best stream ever! Lol
Hearing how everyone let each other know they got home from their travels safe is so sweet and wholesome :’)
At the beginning, before we knew the Hermits were all there, when scar said "Grian, get out of the shot.." I was laughing..that guy did look like Grian....but then Imp and skizz walked by. My brain exploded with Joy!! It was Grian, it was almost everyone. I was so happy! I'm in my 40s and I suddenly felt like a kid on Christmas morning.❤❤
I wasn’t quite paying attention getting ready to leave the house for my weekend class when scar told grian to get out of the shot, and was like “haha very funny scar” not seeing the person at all really, and then he mentioned impulse and skizz and I looked and was like “omg- that is impulse and skizz- wait-“ and just stood frozen in shock while all the hermits walked up.
Man I’ve never been so sad to have to go to class xD
@@dragongaming2796 I probably would have skipped. JK dont skip!
@@dragongaming2796 That moment was so exhilirating. My face, from that moment on, was not without a smile until the end of the weekend, because I was just... I couldn't believe it. And I was so happy for them all. (Having internet friends always has the downside of not seeing them in person very often or at all, and especially for the hermits, who really spend so so much time together online... knowing they could shoot at each other with nerf guns irl, that made me very happy.)
Skizz talking about feeling at home in the content-creation scene was very heartwarming. Skizz belongs in this community. I really hope he can go full time sooner than later :)
You hermits, are all so amazing. HermitCraft and Minecraft are what got my boy thru his cancer treatment. And I can totally relate to the reason Gamer outreach are doing what they do. Not all the kids were lucky to have a gaming setup like my boy and me when he was in hospital. These carts are amazing. Thanks you hermits and thank you gamers outreach. I'm so proud to be apart of this community.
The thought of a bus full of hermits all having a good time rolling through the countryside makes me so happy. Shame the traffic was bad like that.
I felt like such a nerd actually sitting down to watch Scar's POV kicking off the whole event right on time. Like who does that? And then somebody who looks like Iskall wanders behind Scar. And as I'm trying to understand that, somebody who looks like False and Grian are there, and then ... Is that Jimmy? To quote a certain horn, "What is happening!?" But as I started to fire up all the streams that were kicking off, Skizzleman's goes live, and he just looks confused as the Hermitcraft server loads up, and a creeper calmly wanders into frame, looks at the camera, and blows up Gluestick. You couldn't beat that moment. And I was okay being that nerd, because that was the best laugh I've had in months.
I did exactly the same thing, watching Scar and saying “Waaaait a minute. Is that…?” Such a good surprise!
Most memorable moments for me were
- Zedaph getting annihilated by a line of trigger-happy Hermits
- The Phasmo stream and Gem scaring people in the background
- Joe tapping into the Hot Ones Challenge and being unphased by the hot sauce
- Clumsy Cooking. Just the whole thing.
- The final match of the Zedlimpics between both of your teams
- And generally just watching the background of everyone’s streams for the shenanigans and Nerf gun fights happening beyond the computers.
It was such an awesome thing you guys did. I had plans that Saturday and was planning on checking out the vods later but then I clicked on Skizz’s stream when it first started and I realized you guys had actually met up in person for this and my plans went out the window on the spot, I just stayed tuned for the entire weekend.
I’m an international college student and cannot legally work in the country I currently reside in so I could only afford to donate very little but I’m still very glad I was able to contribute. You all have built something amazing here, the Hermitcraft community just blows me away with it’s generosity. I’m so happy to be a part of it.
I think Joe just joined the Hot Ones challenge cause he was hungry. No challenge there for him. 😆
Please, for the sake of y'alls peace and 'off-duty' time, leave the fun time with friends private to your wishes. It's all for you hermits, and as much as we, the audience, would love to hear stories, keep it to yourselves, and be able to keep those wonderful memories. Love you guys! ❤
Edit: my most memorable moment was one of the dollar drives. I'm unfortunately not in a financial place to think I could donate much; in fact, I feared I couldn't make a difference. All I could justify was that dollar, and seeing it go up (from what I remember) 18k, it made me proud to be a part of this amazingly beautiful community ❤️
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, if you ever get the Hermits together in the same physical location again, take a group photo, get it professionally printed (suitable for framing), have everyone pictured sign it, and put it up for auction at your next charity event.
If you'd done that for the Gamer's Outreach charity stream this year, I'm pretty sure it would have raised another few to several thousand dollars. I kept hoping for such an item to appear in the auction.
Still can't believe my 4 favorite Hermits were in the same room together, 1 each from: the US, Canada, Australia, and the UK. You all work from home in separate countries on different continents. This can't be a common occurrence.
Keeping the details of the trip personal and private makes me respect you all so much more. As content creators you're often expected to pour your entire life into an online space for others to consume, and allowing yourselves to have privacy, and to keep such meaningful trips and experiences to yourselves is admirable.
All we, the audience and fans need to know is that you had a good time, that's more than enough for us.
I thought I would be disappointed in not getting any details about your vacation, but I'm not. Not even a little. You guys needed that time together and you deserved every second of it after that amazing event.
I can already see the difference in the way you all interact with each other on stream. There is an extra level of warmth between the hermits who were at the event and it will definitely make a big difference in your content.
My favourite part: Just the hang outs between segments where everyone were just having fun photobombing each others streams and goofing around. I literally didn't stop smiling for like 8 hours.
What could be improved next time: It would have been nice to have like a "main camera", meaning someone that just walked around filming everything that was happening. Anyone who was streaming could tap into that feed and stream it when they felt like it. I know you had the camera at the Clumsy Cooking table, but it was a static camera and the footage got pretty scuffed.
Also maybe find a better solution for reading out donos. Of course it was way too many donations to read them all out, which is an awesome problem to have, but it felt like Martyn ruined his voice for nothing because everyone was talking over him on their respective streams and no one was paying attention to what he said. Even at the end when Doc took over the donation reading during the Zedlympics it just became noise upon noise when he read donations at the same time as 12 people were playing competitive games.
Overall an incredible unforgettable event. And as I said before, I hope you can get Zach on the podcast. I would love to hear his story about Gamers Outreach.
I really am grateful that you all had time together off this train of content. No better way to make stronger friends, stronger relationships. That is totally all just yours, we certainly don't need to be, nor should be involved. Much love to everybody!
This is going to sound strange, but my favorite part was when Jimmy and Martyn toured HermitCraft S10.
It was so cool to see them geek out just like we do, and be just as excited and impressed as we are. It was just the best thing to see.
I can totally see Martyn and Jim joining HermitCraft in the future. Maybe not the next season or even the season after that, but eventually I see it happening.
In response to your closing question/ request, there is nothing i would have changed other than having scar there in person (which i understand why that didn't work and I'm glad he took care of himself properly), but that's a HUGE ask. Would also have loved for more of the hermits to be involved, but again, i get it and you guys had an incredible crew, especially with Jimmy and Martyn.
As for my favorite parts? I loved every second of it and couldn't even narrow it down to one favorite day, let alone one favorite segment. I think the best part was being a part of the friendship and shenanigans. I know we weren't there and we don't actually know you as friends, but the reason i love this cluster of creators is because i feel like i am part of the jokes, the friendship, the comradery, etc. and seeing all of you together having fun was so much fun and so heartwarming that it took even the most mundane and "boring" moments of the event and made it amazing. And i hope you share this comment with each other and the other hermits (and friends), because this is the "why" when you wonder about large donations, long term viewers, and endless love and fandom. Thank you all for all you do!
Yes!
Well said. This is the reason for all that exactly!!!
First I want to say that I was just rewatching the charity streams and that black button up shirt impulse is wearing during Hot Ones looks really sharp on him. (I know he likes to hear good things so I figured I'd voice my opinion lol) Second, Most of us would probably love to be a fly on the wall in some of those real hermit to hermit conversations, but we don't need to be, I'm just glad you guys get to have them. The real friendships are what makes this so special I think.
Next podcast: “Interview with the newest Hermit, David!”
It really felt like watching a group of cousins and siblings hanging out while doing something ridiculously amazing. You as a group personify what love is, and you share it so freely with the world.
That is really well said.
That is exactly the vibe of the charity stream!
"With my family....I'm home" thought I'd cry nearer to the end but here we are.
Thank you so much for this!!! My daughter has epilepsy and we have had to do 48 hour EEGs in the hospital and I'm sure we will have more in her future. She's only 7 and developmentally delayed so she doesn't really understand how to play video games yet but I have seen the carts at our local Children's hospital and am so thankful that they are there for kids who are able to play them.
My daughter likes watching minecraft videos or watching me play and pretending she is playing with an extra controller, I can't want to see what she does in the game once she understands it more.
Creative mode is a perfect way to get started with Minecraft. My daughter could spell her name in blocks before she could write it. 😅
The most memorable parts for me were seeing Grian and Jimmy messing about the whole time. Specifically Kazoo Grian holding Kazoo Jimmy hostage with a nerd gun to his head. It was great to see what their real life friendship is compared to their in-game relationship, it's very similar and felt very wholesome.
If I wanted a single improvement, it would be the headphones issue. I saw a lot of y'all having complaints about them, and I think making sure y'all have a better experience with them next time would make a huge difference. Everything going a tiny bit smoother for you would make it an even better experience from the viewer's perspective. Other than that, there were a lot of echoes and feedback loops due to the close proximity between each of the stations. Not a huge issue, but finding a solution to that would have been nice, but it would have felt a lot more closed in, and kinda like how it is when it's remote, with less community building; so I'm not too fussed over that.
It was a surprise and honor to be a small part of the auction! I had originally donated my TCG Game Box, Booster Box, and Insert Box for the No Kid Hungry event last year, but I received the set a wee bit too late to integrate it into Impulse's event. So, Impulse added them to his items in the GO auction, and they raised a total of $2670.01!
I've done some fundraising years ago to benefit the Shriner's Children's, and was invited to tour the Shriner's Children's hospital in Springfield, MA. It's easily one of the most impactful experiences I've had to see so many children fighting for their well being. And gaming carts weren't a thing back then.
I have another TCG 3-piece set that will hopefully benefit another auction in the future!
It’s really nice hearing Skizz’s appreciation for the event managers is really heart warming they do so much and have so much unappreciation (I know it’s not a real word) this is why Skizz is such a genuine kind person
Getting to see the Hermits and friends interact IRL was my favorite part. The Hot Ones Challenge was amazing. Grian giving Pearl a hug at the end of that was so sweet. Seeing everyone trying to figure out who was the tallest. RoboScar was hilarious. And the best part was that all the funds will go to help out families during a tough time in their lives.
My absolute favourite thing about the whole event was that I didn’t know it was happening until I hopped on Scar’s stream and saw it unfold live. The value of that surprise moment was absolutely huge and I’d have thought almost impossible to pull off in this day and age.
I love the idea of Hermitcraft, like any other work office, having yearly team building trips. Not only can I imagine it being helpful like Impulse mentioned, but unlike most businesses that attempt it, I can really see how this would just always be a positive. I hope to someday work amongst such kind, creative and charitable people, who know the importance of fun and work, and who create a welcoming and open community. Not only do I just love you all individually as creators and people (from as much as we have been able to see through your content), but together you bring out so many wonderful qualities where us viewers just need to open our computers to feel welcomed, seen and accepted. So thank you.
I'll never forget when I saw the Hermits. I was watching the start of Scar's stream, and he had been talking to the organizer. Then, I believe it was Tango and Zed walking past the camera frame, and Scar pointed it out. He said, "Tango and Zed, get out of the camera frame." At first, I thought to myself, "Wow, that kinda looks like them." Then, you guys walked through the camera frame, and Scar again said something. I was still in denial, and once again, I thought, "Wow, that kinda looks like you guys." At some point, you came out and did a big reveal. No joke, I had to pick my jaw off the floor. I was one happy and excited for you all. Just seeing you all together, I knew that weekend was going to be amazing.
Skizz, im gonna repeat this 500 times if needed. You're NOT a bad builder.
You guys spend so much time in the limelight, sharing your time and your lives with all of us viewers. The fact that you got a week to spend together privately is amazing. Keep it private. Cherish that time. We appreciate everything you do. The privacy is well deserved.
Thank you so much! And I'm glad you're keeping the after-event vacation details private. They should be private. You all share a great deal of yourselves with us, the audience, but you certainly owe us nothing, and it's healthier for all of us, you and us viewers, if you have separation as well.
My favorite part was when Robo Scar saw an opportunity to escape and took it. Joe Hills was telling him he was going the wrong direction, but Scar knew exactly what he was doing. He saw a route to freedom and wanted to explore it. And if it weren't for those meddling teenagers...I mean, that meddling Grian, he would have succeeded. 🤣
I loved when someone (Grian, I think?) just said, "I'm picking you up, Buddy," and brought back "in bounds," LOL
That whole vans and bus sequence was an excellent "bad luck / good luck" story.
Petition to get david on the podcast
Yes lol
the whole charity stream was so amazing and i'm blown away by the amount raised, and so incredibly proud as well
That clip board is so funny! That is the most Grian thing I've ever heard. You said it, and I wasn't nearly as shocked as I should be! Lol
I think it’s very cool that you shared what you did with us. I’m glad you took the chance to enjoy the time you had together and didn’t feel the pressure to upload to you tube
It was so fun to see that the hermits are as silly towards each other in real life as they are on the server. 💜
Much love to David!! Coming across people like that make life worth living ❤
The weekend was amazing. So many wonderful streams, such a great cause. I'm really glad you got to hang out together as well, I remember you saying you wished you'd scheduled more time for that around Twitchcon.
A suggestion for similar situations in the future: as soon as people have any chance of knowing where you all are, begin being very clear about the fact that things are not open to visitors. I sort of read between the lines and figured that out, but I definitely would have been one of the people just showing up if not for the fact that I a) was sick and b) have watched Impulse enough to read his slight discomfort with answering questions about where the event was and realize it meant 'don't come'
I knew exactly where you were within minutes of beginning to pay attention, because I live literally a five to ten minute drive from the building and have been there before. "Ann Arbor" indeed. Close enough for Arizonans, I guess. 😉
Yeah I already saw people planning to buy lan tickets to next year's Gamers for giving just to meet hermits and it kind of pisses me off tbh. It's not a gaming convention, it's not hermitcon, it's not a meet and greet, it's not about us, it's about raising money for kids. So sadly I don't think the hermits will be able to do the gfg event again, fans will undoubtedly ruin it
You guys killed it on the Gamers Outreach front. It was great to hear about the camaraderie outside of your "day job" and the importance of unplugging from time to time. Lots to learn here for those entering the workforce and figuring out what work-life balance looks like. As much as I'd like to watch IRL shenanigans, I respect the need to have something you keep to yourselves. You guys have definitely evolved from casual gamers/youtubers/artists/entertainers/content_creators to true professionals.
Honestly the most memorable moment was just tuning into a stream that I expected to be 100% virtual as always and having that slowly dawning realization that you guys were together. And it wasn't lost on me that Pearl, Iskall, and a bunch of hermits from the UK were ALL there. In person. And while that was exciting for me, I knew right away that for you guys, that must have been so special. Happy to hear that it was, you guys deserve that. Also happy that you're choosing to keep some things private, I respect that so much.
The only thing I wish we had more of (and to be fair, this might have just been my perspective from the streams I was jumping between) was interactions during the fully online segments with the hermits who couldn't make it in person. Etho stepping up to lead the tour, Doc stepping up to shout out donos, and Jevin's hilarious fundraising attempts were standouts for me for sure. But I think that all comes back to the perspective shift of season 10 being more social. We're here for the hermit interactions just as much as you're there to interact with friends on a server, and it's very clear you've all kind of grasped that this season. Can't wait for the next one!!!
I think the Hermits need an annual Hermit Retreat so you guys can have more amazing moments like your road trip! I love that you guys were able to have that time to connect. And amazing job raising money for Gamers Outreach! Congrats!
I remember Jimmy saying during his last stream before the event that he was going "on a family trip"
He was not wrong...
Turns out, his "family" were US Customs agents, LOL
@@eledatowle8767 that's the kind of family I'd rather have low or no contact with 😅
My drill sergeant back in the day told us the power of a blank piece of paper and a clipboard. Walk around and look busy. I wish he would have said to add a picture of a duck for effect lol.
I still cant believe that this happened at my college
Events like this are what give me faith in humanity. The fact that people from so many different places, backgrounds, and ideals can come together in such a way, for such a cause, is awe inspiring. The idea that you can come together with folks from all over the world and just enjoy each other's company is magnificent, let alone using their community to power a charity that aims to do something that improves the lives of those who, frankly, don't have a whole lot to be happy about. It's incredible, it's inspiring, it's [insert other positive adjectives here].
I don't like thinking about and talking about enjoying content as escaping from reality. That implies that we're disengaged from what's here and now, because we need something better than reality to ease the burden of living. Instead of thinking about it as escaping, I think of it was viewing another part of reality, where people CAN get along and CAN do great things together. So much of our world is occupied with the view that "If everyone were just like me, we wouldn't have all these problems. Let's screw over the other guy to show how much more right we are!" Which means that seeing people can genuinely put aside political, religious, and geographical differences in favor of doing a genuine good is a practice that ought to be nourished. I don't watch Hermitcraft and such because Minecraft is entertaining, (though it is and I love what you're able to do with it) Rather, I tune in because it shows me what it means to build a positive community, and more importantly, how to build a positive community it my little corner of reality. Then it shows me how to turn that community into a force for good.
Your whole community inspires me, and I hope that fact is something that all of you can recognize. We love you and your work. Please keep showing us the glory of human connection.
Well said. I second that!
hermitcraft is one of the best communities on all of youtube, not just gaming youtube. i couldnt donate any money at all but I'm hoping next year I can help to make a difference !!
The day before you all went live I told my husband I was confused because none of my favorite Hermits were online. LOL. I was watching VODs trying to figure out what I missed!
I tuned in into twitch that saturday, not even knowing about gamers outreach coming. I saw Scar streaming, and was setting up my own minecraft game and was all happy caus' yeah, building with one of you guys on stream is like, not feeling alone and it's just nice, right? And then... he's, you know, talking, I'm not even really registering and his stream turns around.... And I'm all like : Is that PEARL??? and then my brain is clicking and I'm seeing all those faces.... Let's be honest, I didn't get ANY building done whatsoever. But I had an immense amount of fun, loads of laughs and the feels for days (and a good screenshot of a friend's name on that monolith too, on your stream Impulse). Thank you all for that, thanks to gamers outreach, and to all the people who made all of that possible. I'm happy for you all : you had fun, it seems, and I really hope there's gonna be even more moments like this in your future.
I love that season 10 has been the season of building up connections with each other and with the community! Keeping your boundaries is so so SO important, and you don't owe completely access to you, and your time 24/7. Your true fans, will know, understand and respect that! Love y'all and glad you guys had such an amazing time
Soo enjoyed flicking between the streams whilst you were all doing the event. Hearing of your roadtrip challenges after, and the kindness/inclusivity you showed to 'David' just re-affirms what honest/great people you all are! Love your work guys!
I am so blown away by the amount of money y’all were able to help raise!! Also I want you to know I am so happy you got to hang out with some of your friends in person and experience the eclipse together. You deserve to do that sometimes without having to worry about content and just hanging out with your friends.
As someone who lives in northern Ohio and knowing you were close, I was (originally) bummed there wasn't a meetup. But hearing you both talk about your bonding and togetherness following the charity event, I'm so happy you all got to have time together and just disconnect from the rest of the world for a while! We all need time where we can just....be. ❤
I loved watching the charity stream! It was great to see some of you together IRL. I wanted to thank you for doing the podcast. I try to catch it, but I don't always. However, my dog has seen every episode. We play it for my dog when we are gone and it calms her down (we have all the episodes on a playlist). Now she recognizes your voices and perks up when we are watching Hermitcraft.
“Don’t be sad that it’s over, be glad that it happened” these are great words to live by; when a chapter of your life closes don’t be sad about the past times, be grateful and strive to make new memories
This was my first charity stream to see with the hermits. I am super honored to have been able to have scored one of Imps Youtooz while helping a great cause. Such a great community!
I love watching the hermits together irl. It was unexpected, but pleasant surprise. ❤
Like someone said below: My absolute favorite part was watching Scar's stream and then suddenly theres people walking by who all look very familiar and then when it was revealed how many of yall were there in person, my heart almost exploded with joy
I would’ve loved to watch “Hermits & Chill” at the air b&b. Though I totally 100% agree with your decision to make it private, great choice for the whole group of now true friends!
The joy in your voices when you were talking about you trip/holiday with the other hermits made me feel so happy.
My favorite thing was just seeing you all together. Especially I'm glad for Pearl that she could make the trip and meet everyone (because that can't obviously happen too often)
Contributing to this cause was an amazing experience. I enjoyed every second of watching the streams. I'm currently working on building a display case for the Skizz drumsticks.
I was glad that Scar could make it remotely because Gamers Outreach is his baby. The Hermitcraft group did an amazing job with their milestone events; the stream went so fast because of all your activities. I am happy that you all got to wind down afterwards and hangout together for that long. And private times should stay private. Good going, all of you.
I love when Dad Skizz makes an appearance. It was an amazing event. I live in the path of totality and we had schools closed and emergency preppers buying out water 😂 I don't think we truly grasped how lucky we were until we hit totality.
I noticed a big change in the interactions after season 9, when so many were spending a lot of time together just talking in the Decked Out 2 lobby. It is so much more entertaining for us viewers when it is genuine. So glad you guys got to know each other even better on this trip.
I'm so proud of everyone, congratulations. I'm so proud of this whole community in so many ways.
Although I am curious, I think it was the right choice to keep it private. It must have been so lovely for all of yall to take a break and just have fun w each other
My favorite part was seeing all the hermits interact in person and seeing all the shenanigans in the background
The funniest moment for me was gem at impulses computer during guess the build shouting “WHY IS UP DOWN?!?!” lol
One of my favourite things was Scar still being able to be part of the group.
Go RoboScar!!!
I know this is a podcast about the charity stream but I really cracked up about your driver David. What a G. I'm so glad you guys had fun and also a well deserved break from everything too. Thank you for all your do :)
The way the hermits interact give me a lot of hope and you guys inspire me to be a better person. Thank you for being who you are, I feel incredibly lucky to be alive and here to hear your stories :)
The hermits share so much of their time, lives, and relationships with the world all the time through videos, you deserve to have those moments that you all know will always be just for you guys as friends, not as content creators.
Just as a hypothetical... I love the idea of David getting to vlog that trip XD
Just hearing you guys talk about being relax at the Airbnb helps me relax.
Man I haven't played Bang! in so long! I feel like I need to play it again now. Glad y'all had such a blast!
Dont ever feel bad to have a "just for us" moment, yeah i and im sure we would love to know and hear yall talk about it, but just the fact that you told us and acknowledge that its "just for us" is good enough, think when viewers ask for you to talk about it, its when people skip over it and we think maybe youtuber dont think it worth talking about or you forget and we wanna hear it, but since and when u said, its hearfelt or sentimental and wanna keep it as your private thing, i and i believe we will always respect that
Must have been magical spending some irl quality time with the other hermits and friends.. glad you got to do that
Yeah we were traveling on eclipse day as well. We were 4 hours away from the totality zone that morning and left at 6:30 am. I'm so glad you were able to see it as well. It was the most incredible thing Ive ever seen. Pictures truly don't do that justice. That feeling of "when is the next one" is something I'm 100% feeling as well xD next one is in Australia tho, if you wanna make a trip to the land down under and visit pearl.
I am so glad that Scar was able to participate so much virtually. I also appreciate you guys deciding to keep your down side to yourselves. You all deserve those memories remaining special. ♥️
I laughed so hard so many times during the charity stream, especially during the cooking segment. And just being able to see you all together was so heartwarming, loved every minute and soooo much money was raised for such a great cause!
This was an awesome podcast. Taking that time together and keeping it private is the best thing you could do, because those friendships are more important than views.
I would love to see the Hermits do a fundraiser or charity work for mental health. So many people watch your videos and streams because they are patches of light during otherwise dark days; I think it would be lovely for the Hermits to acknowledge the positive effect they have on their viewers ❤
i love love love these behind the scenes episodes!
I was screeching the whole time I watched the charity stream lol (I was VERY excited, also I was watching Scar’s pov)
Such an amazing event!!! Loved loved that the down time was just for you all to be together!! Thanks sharing!
These podcasts always brighten my day and make me feel better, keep up the great work!!!!
choosing the most memorable moment or piece of the streams is so difficult. Roboscar was wonderful to see but honestly I just loved every second of it all. seeing everyone together was great and it made me almost tear up haha. and the amount of money donated is insane, im so glad to be part of this amazing community:)
I love this group of people and I’m so so glad you all are genuine good friends
it honestly makes me so happy you all where able to get some time with just eachother, no cameras and no need to put it on screen. it makes the relationships you have on camera that much better even if we dont see it. its just knowing how much you all where able to enjoy eachothers company without the “glue” of content creation. you all have such great dynamics on screen and im glad it isnt just for the camera and you all enjoy eachother just as much as we see 💙
I just loved everything about the charity stream !! ❤
I love the amount of charity yall do...
