thank you!?

How can I get one of those DUNGEON MASTER t-shirts that Charles is wearing? That looks awesome! I'm 5XL Tall, btw.
Ty for letting me know this exists
Love Lance's response to meeting Gary! So well done!
That's exactly how I'd respond! I'm sure you'd be in the same spirit too.
😉
That vfx editing is top notch. Someone call the corridor crew.
Wonder if they can debunk it or not. I mean it really does look like the dice are floating..
I was not expecting the little cutaway of Sara actually levitating a d20, that was a hilarious addition!
Very enjoyable. I cannot wait for Battlestar Galactica Edition
"So say we all"
And the crowd says "So say we all"
Love the comment about Sarah's personal NPC graveyard. Meta but very funny.
Kepler additions were great during the outtakes! Still waiting for the Kepler edition. Videos of him dropping dice, and defeating cats or treats or whatever the Kepler needs to defeat.
I'm up for that too!
Love how Lance responded to Gygax.
Wouldn't you? I'm sure I would.
@@jackielinde7568 I felt like bowing might be my go to. I feel he'd appreciate it, maybe a "my lord."
@@halfbakedblake I don't know. The man used to run campaigns from his home long after his ousting from TSR.
I’m not spotting anything in the Monster Manual stating oozes need to breathe, although it doesn’t say they don’t either. Personally as they don’t seem to have a respiratory system I would say they don’t need to breathe although it’s really up to dm interpretation.
They’re immune to crits as they have no vital organs so no, they don’t breath.
they can't go thru earth and rock so the blob would be stuck there. as to oxygen, not sure they require oxygen, but on the other hand it is a gelatinous blob which would signify it requiring to absorb oxygen into it's membrane, but very little would be required to the point that the amount filtered thru the earth and rock should suffice it to survive.
I think oxygen just diffuses through the slime.
Don't know about the breathing... but it should be taking so many rounds of crushing damage until the dirt is removed, it can move to another space, or it dies.
I agree, probably not suffocate, but I would say bludgeoning damage from the earth hitting it, then depending on how much dirt, could argue crushing damage.
I just pictured the initial bludgeoning damage to be more than HP and it just went splat 😁
Always glad to see a new Mann Short...lol, tie the giant's shoelaces together!!! Good episode guys!
I had to lol, imagining a giant wearing sneakers!🤣
7:32 , 8:00 i liked the Easter Eggs that pays Homage to 1950's sci fi effects ...
cause im sure that what it was.
When Scanners met Village of the Damned meets Stranger Things at WizardCon while watching Firestarter and playing Psychonaughts. As for the gelatinous cube question, fire and slicing weapons seem to be the best ways to kill it but short of that there's a theory that they are basically immortal, so I don't think depriving it of oxygen would kill it.
Better would have been him smashing it under a block of earth/stone. I think even a Gelatinous Cube can't really survive large scale bludgeoning damage, say from a landslide. It might still be trapped forever, if it can't climb up the pit, or dissolve the earth to create a new tunnel
Oooooh! Psychaunauts edition!
I think the idea is that the Cube falls into the pit, then he drops the dirt/rocks that he excavated back on top of it. Since it's gelatinous, it has nowhere to go or way to keep cohesion and it gets smooshed.
I think the cube would just be spread around, like jelly on a sandwich. It probably wouldn’t need to breathe, but it would be trapped under the ground until it could ooze somewhere else and put itself back together.
This is my take on it, too. He just temporarily disabled it. Plus they're in town. If there's so much as a water pipe ruptured down there in the hole, that's an escape route for the thing. It'll reform in the sewers and be back again in part III: Attack of The Blob.
Plus the dirt is loose, which means the cube can just pass it through itself. To seal away a cube you'd need a solid walled airtight container.
Ha ha! The fact that they embraced the low budget of the skit, and purposefully left in the fishing line in.

Great episode, can't wait for bsg. I'm guessing Sarah is the cylon? Or would that make too much sense and it's really Jay?...oh this is getting complicated, just throw them all out the airlock.
Can't say I ever get too excited about the next episode tease (every episode is fun, regardless of topic) but I am looking forward to a BSG-themed episode.
The real question is, are they doing Original BSG, or the Reimagined BSG.
Michael, haven't you seen BSG? They're ALL gonna be Cylons!
Obviously, Kepler is the Cylon.
I don't know why I'm looking at kelper...
Because we all know he the true master 😂
The production values on this are amazing!
even if you look closely, you cant see the wires! How do they do it? I bet it's mirrors!
The budget on the string 😂😂
I don't know I wanted a ketchup flavored nosebleed when Waylon failed to use his powers. Other than the missed opportunity, on point.
The part with the levitating dice made me laugh quite a bit. Also letting Kepler know of the pauses in the lines was great. Looking forward to next week's video. Excellent, work as always.
So Say we all!
Having watched the others “levitate” their dice with fishing line, I was full on expecting him to “actually” levitate his dice, and the others gong “whaaa!?!”, but loved it, all the same… :)
@ Lance: Sealing the cube in the ground would probably not kill it as it can squeeze between cracks to escape long before it would suffocate, however, that much weigh dropping on it would do some serious bludgeoning damage, especially if it was dropped from enough height, which might kill it outright.
Right
But the source material doesn't state the cube can climb, so the cracks are useless. HOWEVER, I don't think Lance dropped the plug from high enough to outright kill the cube using falling damage formula to determine how much damage would the cube suffer from the 15 foot plug. If the cube survived the initial blow, and the material was dirt/soil, it's entirely possible that the soil gets ingested by the cube and SLOWLY precipitates out the bottom. This would raise the floor and allow the cube to eventually escape it's prison. The questions are, how long would this take and would the cube starve to death beforehand?
Now, if we're talking other slimes, then, yes they would be able to squeeze through the cracks and climb up and out of the pit.
@@jackielinde7568 the gelatinous cube can only digest organic material, but that doesn't mean that other materials cannot pass through it eventually. It stands to reason that it could climb in the same manor that it travels on horizontal surfaces, though it would obviously be slower.
@@johnhenkel1828 I said that when I said the dirt would be ingested (meaning taken in) and then very slowly precipitated out. It's the same as the parable of the Donkey in the Hole.
Now, if the fifteen foot cube was one solid mass of stone, then imagine Jello getting smooshed. It'll get pushed into cracks and such, but it won't be able to climb.
Yes Battlestar Galactica edition
Battlestar, and we all know it. All of a sudden it's the #1 suggestion on google...and all I had to do was type the S.
A gelatinous cube under that much earth in my games would still be ok, but out for that fight.
To answer the question about the Gelatinous Cube... maybe??? First thing, while the cube does have status immunities, they're against things that attack the mind. It is not resistant or immune to physical attacks. That means, a fifteen foot cube of either dirt or solid stone would do crushing/bludgeoning damage to the creature. I'd rule that would fit under the normal falling damage rules, but your DM might have a differing opinion.
Now, depending on the material, it might eventually resurface. First of all, if the fifteen foot cube were made of stone, then we're just talking about the creature being entombed. It's possible it might try to squeeze out of the cracks, there is nothing to suggest it can climb. So it stays until it starves to death. If we're talking dirt, then I think we need to talk to the DM. While it cannot digest dirt, just the biological materials in dirt, it can ingest dirt... and then the dirt precipitates out of the cube some time later. This creates the "donkey in a pit" scenario, where the dirt falls through the cube and pushes it upwards as it settles out. So a cube could escape the trap eventually... but it would take a long time.
I don't know if the cube would suffocate in the trap, but as long as there isn't enough organic matter for it to dine on, a cube could starve. Again, this would be up to the DM. Also, if we're talking other slimes, they would be able to escape the trap if there were cracks sufficient enough for it to slip through.

Just wanna say, I appreciate all that you guy's do!
Next Episode. Battle Star Galactica!!! Awesome.
Lance fixing his hair was priceless!
"So say we all."
Me: 😃😃😃
So say we all
So say we all? Calling it now, Sara will be either Starbuck or Six. Which ever has the higher body count.
Ok so the soil crushing the cube thing made me get my math head on.
15ft cubed works out at 3375 cubic ft. 1 cubic ft is around 80lb of weight would make the weight of the item 270,000lb which is 135 US Ton.
Im assuming you are using Telekenis as a spell for lifting it, and at level 5 you could lift 1000lb or half a Ton. So you wouldn't actually get the 135 US Ton only half a ton, thus not even giving you the 15ft cubed hole you wanted for it to fall in to drop the cube on it.
So for argument sake im assuming higher lvl casting results in higher weight value that you can lift, and at 9th its pretty significant.
So a 15ft cube of soil can be raised up 60ft, to fall in the the hole giving you 1d6 per 10ft so 6d6. Which seems awfully low for 135 tons of soil.
Then there's falling damage first for the cube falling in the hole. Which would be 2d6.
So far that's 2d6 from the fall, and 6d6 from the soil. Not looking good! but we have suffocation.
Which as per 3.5 ( as its not mentioned in 5E ) Cubes infact, do not breath. Bummer.
So more than likely it took a average of 28hp of bludeoning damage, and then just kinda oozes out of the ground after a while like someone sticking a their hand into a tube of ooze.
If you don't have organs, or a respiratory system, you don't breathe.
Ohhhh a Stranger Things D&D 😁
Gelatinous cubes don’t need to breath, but they can’t dissolve rock and aren’t immune to bludgeoning damage. So, if all that earth didn’t smoosh it to death, it might be trapped under all the dirt and rock. It could conceivably ‘eat’ some of the soil and eventually get out, but If there is too much rock, it might just be stuck and eventually starve and die.
I do believe next week is a sci-fi episode because I know I've heard that phrase from somewhere.
I wanna say either Farscape or Dune.

Good to see Wailin ending up the hero this week. More! More! I loved Millie Bobby Brown's character in the series, she is an exceptional actress and I hope she has a good career.
"Wrooom, wroooooom. Thats me getting better credit"
Dave Arneson, co-creator of Dungeons and Dragons, isn't mentioned. The creator of Blackmoor gets the shaft while the EGG (aka E. Gary Gygax) of Coot gets all the glory again.
The CGI budget on his episode is amazing! What David Blaine-level magic is this?!
Beets, Bears, Battlestar Galactica
"You are knocked through a blockbuster video, sending glass and vhs tapes flying." That's a sentence I haven't heard in a while.
the best (and only) Gary Gygax impression i have ever heard. well done!
I actually got a little misty-eyed at this episode and am so excited for the next one!
Again delivering plenty of great gags as well as smash-ups. Keep it coming, so say we all (BSG)
Sara: "Meh" to the "superweapons" question 🤣🤣
I actually wondered if you were going to crossover with the Futurama episode of Gary and the rest of the Vice Presidential Action Rangers being stuck in some kind of empty plane, which could well be connected to the Upside Down. I'd watch that.
The "so say we all" bit is Reminiscent of battlestar galactica
I was sure Sarah was going to win initiative and let the assassin succeed
I'm pretty sure Gelatinous Cubes are chemotropes, so they don't necessarily need to breathe, they just need nutrients. However some chemotropes do use aerobic processes, and burying one would cut off its nutrient supply, so it should be effective even if it's slow.
Earlier : "You see your city in the distance. Monsters are everywhere. A dragon is burning down buildings. A giant is eating people. There's even a gelatinous cube who is slowly swallowing city hall."
Later:
"How big is the cube?"
"10x10"
That cube is nowhere as impressive as originally described :)
I don't believe units were defined, and I think a 10 mile by 10 mile gelatinous cube is pretty impressive.
...or it was a small city hall in a small town. 😉
That too, we're just not given enough information to say one way or another. DnD sometimes does use miniatures so the town hall could be dangerous to step on, like a lego - only more expensive.
Sarah is a natural 008, as in Kali, the "lost sister" from the generally hated episode of Season 2, who was about just straight up merc'ing anyone in her path who got in her or even looked at her sideways funny. Run away! RUN AWAY! Don't make psychokinetic soldier Sarah angry! 😱😱😱
I think that gelatinous cubes live in low oxygen environments, and just slow their metabolism when the oxygen is very low, and they become inert when there is no oxygen. They revive when oxygen is available.
While the books have never outright stated if gelatinous cubes need air, Dragon Magazine #124 stated that they could sometimes be found in water. Furthermore, Burying it would prove to be only a temporary solution, as it would absorb the soil into itself, dissolving the organic material, and slowly discarding the inorganic matter beneath it. I figure in about 2 weeks or so, that cube would be free.
Every time the young girl who explodes heads with her mind is mentioned I kept thinking of a Sara cloning experiment gone horribly wrong. Lol.
No nose bleed when Waylon messed up. :(
The Canon of oozes most generally falls under a form of immortality. Other than an adventurer or starvation, they will continue to exist. So, essentially, if you were to befriend a gelatinous cube, preferably one of berlews sentry cubes because they have a natural intelligence, you can actually place them in a bag of holding for a limited time. (Dms choice that is)One campaign I played, the bbeg was a sorc/bard who lured us in with her songs. She proceeded to bombard us with oozes via catapult that she had trapped inside of glass jars. We all died in the end. We were a party of barbs lol, but it was really fun none the less and a very interesting take. In short, trapping the cube wouldn't kill it. In fact, if there were any sort of cracks or crevices it could seep out and continue its assault. Just my experience anyways!!! Gg on the video! This was amazing as always! It was really cool Lance asked a question we could all participate with too! Much love! Keep up the amazing work!!!!
Ha! ha! I love it! Dungeons and Dragons Battlestar Galactica Edition! That’s going to be real interesting to watch.
The special effects this episode were so realistic!
Awesome episode Mann Shorts! Cubes don't need to breath.
Battlestar Galactica next week?!?!
YAAAASSSSSS
"So say we all." Amen.
So say we all.
I must compliment the special effects in this. Highest budget for them yet!
the cube would eat the organic matter (bugs, insects, microorganisms etc...), and then spit out the none organic matter, feeding it that much would make it stronger.
sooo they free sarah and co. because they are trained to be soldiers ONLY to ride into a fight against monsters from the upside down, a fight i dont know MILITARY normally does? something doesnt add up here ^^
Lance should play the conspiracy theorist. Looks just like him
you should do a G.U.R.P.S edition
The entire episode would just be trying to figure out the rules.
Ah,..but will our players be crew of the Galactica, Cylons, civilian members of the fleet, members of the fleet who may secretly be Cylons?
The possibilities!
Gygax now did have a mean streak. He did after all make Tomb of Horrors.
I Love how Sara is supposed to be cynical but is just brutalny honest and right 😅
The jelly cube would eventually dig itself out, but it would neutralise it for the rest of the duration of the battle
Loved the onward gelatinous cube reference.
Totaly did not notice the fishing line untill it was pointed out. Great FX.
I love the "special" effects
Whether or not the Gelatinous Cube SHOULD be able to (or even need to) breathe isn’t important- what IS important is that you stick with whichever answer you end up going with…. and run the gag into the ground, just like the cube. ^__^
I reckoned that a Gelatinous Cube wouldn't need to breathe; further, given its caustic nature, I would personally rule that it'd eventually dissolve the material directly in contact with it until it's free again... or at least it ends up as the hazard at the bottom of a pit trap from the plug of earth that's slowly been sinking down onto/into it over X amount of time.
Nat 1 on levitation and the die somehow phases down through the table.
In an old-old Dragon Magazine article, there was an adventure or something that was run similar to this I think. The 'npc' job was either writer or drawer or something. I can't remember. Stats were pretty much anything Infinite and can auto-(no resist in any manner) force out of his office.
omg, I love Sarah's dice!
So 14:10, they levitation here, but couldn't be bothered to have Sarah force push her dice rolls to the numbers she wants like how Qui Gon Jin did in SW Epi 1?
Looks like there are some Dice Envy dice in this video. Good choice.
“So say we all!”
So say we all
So say we all.
Smothering would not work. According to Sage Advice, from Mike Mearls, "I don't really have a canonical answer, but it's more fun to say they don't breath, so that's the answer."
Binge watched part 1 of season 4.. now I need more. June 22 can't come soon enough
The gelatinous cube would need to split apart and surface to get back to the 10 x 10 would maybe take 45 min.
as to oxygen, not sure they require oxygen, but on the other hand it is a gelatinous blob which would signify it requiring to absorb oxygen into it's membrane, but very little would be required to the point that the amount filtered thru the earth and rock should suffice it to survive. basically any oxygen intake would be acquired thru absorption and earth and rock not being a very solid barrier would allow it to still breath unlike if it was caught in any other type of medium which is too dense for air to filter thru.
I looked at my various editions of D&D Monster Manuals and only 3rd Ed specifies that as gelatinous cubes are oozes and oozes, as a type, need to breathe, if not specified otherwise, gelatinous cubes need to breathe.
Besides the breathing issues, I looked up what a cubic foot of dirt weighs, which is between 74 and 110 lbs. If I'm being conservative and say the average weight is 80 lbs, that's 270,000 lbs, or 135 tons, of dirt. Gelatinous Cubes aren't any more resistant to an avalanche than people are, so I'm pretty sure it got crushed to death. Even if I reduced it to just dirt that fell on it, as it's not filling the entire hole, that's still 120,000 lbs or 60 tons of dirt. It's dead, Jim.
Rigsby that Princess Mononoke shirt is sick!
Great episode, and I love Waylin’s Princess Mononoke t-shirt!
So say we all!
Can't wait for next week.
So say we all!
Battlestar Galactica, nice
Battlestar!!!!!! Whooot
YOURE DOING BATTLESTAR GALACTICA NEXT WEEK, I AM SO HYPED
Really good content, im just frenzy scrolling random episode and im impressed by the overall quality of every episode
There is no way Sarah isnt a Cylon
Sarah is their god!
I lost it at the “strung up” dice
BATTLESTAR
Love the "special" effects. :)
Sarah as Caprica Six...or Starbuck.... 🤔
The special effects in this episode were amazing!
Okay, the commercial you guys made had me giggling right away. Well done.
Couldn't focus on this episode at all, was too busy staring at Sara's hair. Goals.
Goosebumps movie plus stranger things equals wacky misadventures
it's been a long time since last i watched the channel but im going to start watching again.
