    Listen up hall monitors:
    1. "Grian you didn't keep an inventory spot open on pearls task" - The task says that is for the original owner (Pearl) not the new owner.
    2. "You didn't fail, you called the session end!" - Your task is active until you press the button. Calling the end of the session means to meet at the keeper.
    We self moderate this series, so please don't hall monitor!

    Task idea: when someone loses a life this session, you have to experience all five stages of grief. Avoid that person for the rest of the session, pretending they’re out of the game. Do not acknowledge them if they try to talk to you.
    Edit: If no one has lost a life this session, choose the most recent from the previous session. Also, do not acknowledge anything that person has done once you have started your task, such as build a new base. If that person is brought up in conversation, use past tense.

    For the task itself you could pick something like "lose the least amount of health, bottom 3 lose" or something like that.

      ​@@ceceratsThe Afterlife you're referring to is actually the second SMP called Afterlife, so this hypothetical would be number 3.

    Task suggestion: Have two people receive the same task that says, "You must find the other person with this same task and trade books by the end of the session without speaking about this task." And have each book have a different number at the end.

  • @jamessantos3767

    Task Idea:
    Create a secret tunnel between two bases without them knowing it was you. You cannot use your own base for one of the connections. The base has to be actively used, so neither the burnt egg or big b’s back rooms count. The bases must be between two different groups, for example no connecting two different mounder bases together. If you are called out for making the tunnel, you can no longer use the base of the group that called you out as one of the connections. If they discover the secret tunnel but don’t know it was you, you can continue. You succeed when the tunnel is complete between the two bases and no members from either group has called you out for building it. The tunnel in considered complete when there’s a continuous direct path between the two bases that is traversable without breaking any blocks (you can use doors, tall grass and other things you can walk through to cover the entrances) You fail you have been called out by enough groups that you can’t connect two different bases or the tunnel isn’t complete by the end of the session. Try to break the trust of a few alliances by making them think they’re stealing from each other lol!

    TASK SUGGESTION: Choose a specific member and act like an NPC around them in both actions and speech for the session. You must have at least 5 different interactions with them. If your person is yellow they cannot guess your task. Other yellows can only guess your task if they guess the specific person.
