I don't think he has the health issues anymore, he streams weekly on chilluminati and his in most of Tom's daily videos. I think he and Lewis just don't hang out as much anymore.
They had a falling out of some kind, Lewis mentioned it in one of the Triforce podcasts. I imagine things have gotten better by now, or at least hope they have
"I saw a video of the Cardassians getting seeded." Holy shit that was incredible. Also something that I will not be able to explain to anyone on my floor who heard me laughing so hard.
This is literally my Yogs dream team. I've been a fan since about 2008, back when I was a wee-lad, Lewis and Simon have of course always been the highlights. I fell off Yogscast for a long while, I was never huge on most of the Cast (Sjin and Sips are fun, but no one else has super entertained me). However when Tom and Ben joined, my love for these guys was rekindled. Tom, Lewis, Ben, Simon, my ideal Yogs Roster.
Imagine a Yogsquest where they played as their TTT avatars, so Lewis would be PC Master Race, Tom is Palp, Ben is Left Shark, it would be fantastic. And the enemies/bosses could be other TTT avatars like Kermit, Blobby, Wace Mindu, and Phoenix Wright. I think this is legitimately a really good idea.
I feel for Lewis: he makes a good point about that making a planet the capital isn't a specific/big moment, and everyone looks at him like "shut up, you are ruining our fun"...
I got that too. That happens a lot with Lewis,where I get what he's saying but he explains it badly and nobody else in the video understands. It's kinda sad.
I went to the website and took a look at all the games. I love them. I'm not a big board game (I mean this is a board-less board game, but still) guy purely because I have no-one to play them with, but Microscope in particular sounds so good and I am glad they went with a space setting. I love Sci-Fi settings in board games, probably because I feel like fantasy is overdone and typically less creative, but that's just me.
I had never heard of the Dark Forest theory, at least by that name, but I knew of the Fermi Paradox. Real interesting stuff and it makes you think about the endless possibilities of what's out there, even just in our galaxy.
I'm a big Lewis fan but my god he's creatively stifling! I feel that despite the silliness, the train of consciousness flowed a great deal better on the first series. No pun intended.
19:34 on the Dark Jungle concept: "the chances are they're gonna kill you first if you don't kill them. You have to kill them before they kill you. It's like PUBG." It's like Hobbes.
We had a game where it was spiced up thusly: The SUDDEN and UNEXPECTED heat death of the Universe. Turns out we actually had gods in our universe, they took their suns and went home.... Alas, due to my terrible group planning skills we never learned what we did to cause that!
Jinx Dragon I'm going to have to be a party pooper and say that taking all the stars out of the universe would probably slow the heat death of the universe
Zac Roebuck i don't know anything about this but.... isn't the heat death of the universe when there is no longer energy transfer so everything stops. Not necessarily "hot death"
Heat death is when all the energy in the universe is heat. Its impossible to stop energy slowly turning into its most choatic form which is long wavelength EM radiation.
Judah Hansen The floor with describing heat death as a zero energy transfer environment is that there are multiple scenarios that can fit this description. For instance a environment where all particles et al. are equally spaced would have no collisions between species. Therefore there is no energy transfer in a non heat death environment.
Nolyn Ste It's just a weird downtime with Yogsquest 9 ending last week, the editors needing some time to do all the edits for microscope, and waiting for the next poker stream to happen / be uploaded.
The last microscope game I played was a scifi game. Where all life began on massive ships prior to planets being formed. No one knew who or what created these ships. But all life started on these various ships and our timeline followed a specific group sent out to explore these newly formed planets. The timeline ended with the species of the galaxy coming to a great cataclysmic war between ancient gods and the mortal species of the galaxy finishing with every race populating planets and no longer having any ships
Even then they spoke over skype or a teamspeak thing, you can tell by the sounds in the background whenever they talked in early yogs SMP. Not in the same room.
Lewis and Simon??? A miracle that doesnt even happen in the main channel anymore
What happened between them?
King Slushie101 nothing I think. Just Simon has some health problems and has a weird recording schedule because of them, or something.
I don't think he has the health issues anymore, he streams weekly on chilluminati and his in most of Tom's daily videos. I think he and Lewis just don't hang out as much anymore.
They had a falling out of some kind, Lewis mentioned it in one of the Triforce podcasts. I imagine things have gotten better by now, or at least hope they have
I think they just drifted apart, it's been years and sometimes people change and no longer mesh as well
Simons Kardashian joke was perfectly timed, i was crying for a good 5 minutes.
It's my favorite comeback story
Quick wit, that boi
ZeikJT no, I don't think that was a comeback
Aidan Robertson it was a Parks and Recreation outtakes reference, a bit obscure but so worth it!
ZeikJT I was setting you up to say it!
Is it THE Bedgar from the yogscast? Wow
Winner of the Star Wars Armada European Championship 2017? It sure is!
What? A wooden table and plants in the same video!?! We can't even get this on the main channel.
I would love to see them play microscope and then do a d&d game/yogsquest in that world
.
"I saw a video of the Cardassians getting seeded."
Holy shit that was incredible. Also something that I will not be able to explain to anyone on my floor who heard me laughing so hard.

well boba is a great mix as well all thse years later, her and tom and her and lewis are all great together
YES MORE MICROSCOPE, keep doing this and call of cthulhu, they're great.
Yes!! I love Microscope! And with all my favorite Yogs!
Mr Zeta who's your favourite yog?
Damn, tough choice
I'd have to say Tom, but Simon is a close second
They went straight into warhammer >.>
Simon and Lewis in the same video? WHAT!?!
James?
we just need a trevor and bruce account and we're set
WHAT!?! DUNCAN SEEDS
If this is as good as the first one, I think i'll enjoy this
This cast is perfect! The Tom and Ben Duo, Lewis and Ben Duo, Lewis and Simon duo and Tom and Simon duo are all here.
Also microscope is cool.
They introduced Ben wrong, the should've introduced him as Ben Edgar, Champion of the People.
This was before the scourge of Ben, when clam people were free.
More Microscope! Lewis & Simon together! Christmas really snuck up on me this year.
Christmas in July
Lewis AND Simon TOGETHER!?
Do they even like each other anymore? How is their body language?
Can The Fishmen cometh again
uncanny canned valley
Waff Yes please do it
Waff
*Hyper Fishmen
It has started... The Ben and Tom takeover!!! :)
srakadrisky The Jerk Off boys cometh.
I like it, I'm glad to see more of them :)
Sharkey and palp
Finlay Hood Sharky and Palp cometh
srakadrisky sharky and palp
Yes! A new Microscope series! With Ben! And Simon and Lewis! And Tom!
Best group of 4 you can get
I want an episode where all the ttt guys cosplay as there skins
Redelectric not Duncan as mercy oh god no, at least Dooncan
Harutooo_818 bouphe though

it could easily be made into a specific moment/event
I love Lewis to death but this is the wrong series for him. Mostly because he's super anal and neurotic like me.
Constantinople->Istanbul?
I got that too. That happens a lot with Lewis,where I get what he's saying but he explains it badly and nobody else in the video understands. It's kinda sad.
he's right though, naming a capital is a event, not a time period
The is literally my favorite people of the yogscast in one room. Two legendary duos
Tom saying "Very Happy" with a cold expressionless face is a total mood. 27:24

All hail the boat king!

16:56 "I'm saying no to Spizards"
Love this, character creation and world building is one of my favourite parts of RPGs
Wow my four favourite Yogs members, the big 4 if you will
Scott I agree. I agree.
The four heads from Mount Yogsmore.
Couldn't agree more, my 4 favourite good boys too
Holy shit i love Microscope! More of this please my friendos!
I LOVE that Lewis talked about the Dark Forest from the Three Body Problem. My favorite Sci-Fi series ever.
Oh man, Lewis, thank you so much for introducing me to the Dark Forest theory! That's such a cool idea to introduce into my own games.
Tyrus Its from the sci-fi trilogy "The Three Body Problem" please please read it it is AMAZING.
You know; I'd forgotten how genuinely funny Simon was
This is so 100 times better than I came in thinking it would be
I love it when you guys play microscope all the bants! we need more of this game in general
I am so glad this series is back for another round. I really like the first one.
I had never heard of the Dark Forest theory, at least by that name, but I knew of the Fermi Paradox. Real interesting stuff and it makes you think about the endless possibilities of what's out there, even just in our galaxy.
The Hawk Its from the Three Body Problem trilogy. Amazing AMAZING sci-fi books, considered the best in China.
i could just honeslty watch them play this one game over and over and over again
I really loved the last series of this. I’m so glad there is a new one
Lewis and Simon in the same room in 2018... all my dreams are becoming true!
This series makes me so happy
This is great content. I love that you brought Lewis and Simon in. I will be happy if we have a pace better than once a week.
Lewis surpassed his idea limits in this vedio, I’m very proud of him.
I want to see them play this again with all of the new members :D loved this series and would love for it to come back
This was my favorite series I am so happy that they are doing this again
orangeboy155 *Were
Woooooooooooooo!!!! The ultimate dream teams. Ben and Tom, and Simon and Lewis
I'm a big Lewis fan but my god he's creatively stifling! I feel that despite the silliness, the train of consciousness flowed a great deal better on the first series. No pun intended.
gotta love when simon and lewis are in the same video
19:34 on the Dark Jungle concept: "the chances are they're gonna kill you first if you don't kill them. You have to kill them before they kill you. It's like PUBG."
It's like Hobbes.
I love seeing Lewis and Simon in the same room again every once in a while!
I think Lewis has been doing space research since sips wanted space wars. He's gotta do it for his spaceman travel.
I hope this is gonna be more than once a week
Last one was once a week, this one will also probably be once a week. It's sad, but at least we have it.
doesn't matter when you're binging it a year later ;)

The SUDDEN and UNEXPECTED heat death of the Universe.

Judah Hansen Sorry, bit of a long day over here
I'm so glad Tom added Space Pirates, as soon as the Yes/No part started I was like please someone say yes to Space Pirates
Plz...more,more......MORE....please! I love these series can’t wait to see what happens next.
lewis is talking about a von neumann probe
This is legit my favorite games night.
Tom AND Ben? In the same video? I'm so excited!
Oh god, Simon's face at #13:50
Simon T Haha nice
You dont need the #
Im as happy as a clam at high tide!
I dont think I've ever seen lewis this calm and chill XD
Everyone excited for Lewis and Simon when I'm just here for Ben and Tom.
Lewis is like he is watching Isaac Arthur, so many hard science fiction ideas.
the pure joy on Simon’s face when he knows his kardashian joke is coming is hilarious and heartwarming
Looking forward to the next one!
Ooh, this is already good, and with the space theme this time, I really can't wait to see what they come up with!
The double laugh from Ben and Lewis at 20:52 is scary and hilarious
This sounds like it's going to be a really cool series to watch.
Michaelo0 Apparently there is no series to watch
Nolyn Ste it's probably going to be once a week like the last time they did this.
Michaelo0 even so, the channel hasn't uploaded in 3 days.
Nolyn Ste It's just a weird downtime with Yogsquest 9 ending last week, the editors needing some time to do all the edits for microscope, and waiting for the next poker stream to happen / be uploaded.
It also seems like Tom and the Battleboys haven't streamed in quite a while so you don't have that to fill in some gaps.
YES!!!!!!! I loved the last microscope game I'm so glad they did another!

Prayers answered. Feels SO good!
Literal Plot of WALL-E
omg ikr?
minus aliens and with space magic though
well space magic won't be in it. But then again, neither will Super AI so no WALL-E plot
Lewis "I watched a youtube, video , now let me cram in my knowledge into this yogsquest."
Tom, you're absolutely fantastic! Keep up the games guy!
*alarms*
LEWIS AND SIMON IN SAME ROOM
RETURN OF SOI CONFIRMED
Even then they spoke over skype or a teamspeak thing, you can tell by the sounds in the background whenever they talked in early yogs SMP. Not in the same room.
Hell yes this is why I subbed to games night
This is looking really good, keen for this series
So glad this is back!
Seeing Microscope again is exhilarating to see.
Now THIS is what I’m talking about!
I really like Lewis' input in this.
Them introing Ben, the new Host of the channel as a Special Guest is really cute tbh.
THEY DID NEXT MICROSCOPE!!! YASSS!!!
Simon and Lewis in the same video?! Perfect!!
This is the best birthday gift I’ve had
My body is ready for this series
“We pick and choose the rules that we use” while that is good roleplay, it’s also the Yogscast garuantee.
Damn the Yogs lineup on this video is A+
I aspire for my microscope games to one day be on the same level of shenanigans as the yogscast's
Before even looking at the comments i know that everyone will be so happy that Simon and Lew Lew are in a video together
Love Microscope :D Love it with these guys!
Wait Ben Edgar.... Bed-gar.... WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA?!?!?!?
Technically it'd be split Be-dgar or B-edgar, but you do you.
JackofCookieJars
And I thought the original commenter was being 'that guy.'
Simon's hair cut looks dashingly today.
WAIT THERE WAS ANOTHER MICROSCOPE ALL THIS TIME!?!? WHAT HAVE I BEEN MISSING?
It sounds like they’re just writing a stellaris story.
i really wanted them to call the last age" the chancellor becomes the senate."
Lewis and Simon in the same video? We've been blessed! Though probably by Gaben..
I'm super hype for the rest of this!!
Welcome to another installment of Rambling with Lewis! I mean Yogsquest.
I was looking forward to another one of these.
Roger J Doucet so was I
YESSS
A Good crew for a yogsquest!!
My genetalia cannot handle this setup
Ession *whispers* quickly put him in quarantine
Dickrippers be warned, you might be mistaken for a Spox vector.
