Secret Life: Episode 5 - GETTING INVOLVED!

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!

Grian saying "I won fair and square!" only for BigB to say "He did WIN..." is utterly delightful

Seriously though, gotta respect Pearl for telling after she dropped the book in Grian's inventory. That's straight up class

It’s cool to see Grian with a different group this time! As much as I love Grian, Mumbo and Scar combo, it’s fun to see the different interactions and side of these groups!

Watching Grian climb and build small towers with 1 heart is giving me a panic attack.

TASK IDEA: You must use pre-recorded messages to communicate, but can also communicate using charades/building things, you may record messages at any time throughout the episode, but you cannot speak to people directly.

Grian and Etho admitting to each other how they rigged the draw lmaooo

Task idea: go the entire session without going through a door or other traditional entrance.

9:30 is the reason why you need to see all the POVs.
Etho quirky era is the greatest thing to happen since the Life series.

Here’s a fun task idea.
The book just says: “Go and collect your reward from the secret keeper for free……”
And then the next page would say: “……Unless you decided to turn the page, in which case you now have to reroll for a hard task.”

the living situation of Etho, Cleo, Bdubs and Grian is infinitely entertaining

Bdubs’ genuine “PFT both of you? im gunna puke.” was SO FUNNY FOR NO REASON IM CRYINGGG

I love how Grian's task is essentially just "be yourself"

Lizzie's 'well you must be eager for the birthday party, let's go' was some excellent comedic timing!

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.

I count Grian as having won, it was the end of the session, he succeeded.

I like that Skizz keeps calling people by nicknames. G-Sharp is a cool one.

Munbo having a temper tantrum was so funny for me😅

Grian didn’t rig the vote, it was the man in the pumpkin costume!

TASK IDEA: For one session, everyone has the same task. It's a competitive task in which around 3 players are guaranteed to fail. You can choose if everyone knows that they have the same task (and nullify yellow-green guessing), or have them try to figure it out by themselves.
For the task itself you could pick something like "lose the least amount of health, bottom 3 lose" or something like that.

a task where you have to have a “normal” monotone persona for the whole session, cannot scream no matter what, or get excited about anything

TASK IDEA: If your British or Australian speak in an American accent for 45mins of the session | If you are a Americans or Canadians speak in British accent for 45mins of the session

TASK IDEA: You have to say "don't forget to like and subscribe" 5 times during inconvenient situations around other players.

Bdubs has been in my top three hermits since season 6, Grian, Cleo and Etho are just voicing what we're all thinking lol.

Task idea: celebrate at the end of every interaction with other players like you just completed your task

A cool task could be “Convince someone else to tell you their task if they do they don’t fail and you succeed”

9:30 i love how etho didnt even have to say that hes bdubs. Everyone just knew 😂 ah that moment killed me , so good 🤣

An idea for a task: You must avoid looking at a randomly given player for an entire episode, but interacting with them is still allowed.

Grian was like the kid who joined every single club in school this episode

The new Life series should be called Afterlife.
When you die (as a red), you become a ghost. As soon as there is at least one ghost player in Afterlife, the ghosts will drift away from the normal upload schedule. They will have their own sessions in between the normal sessions, where they devise plans, make traps, and all around try to haunt the remaining Hermits.

Task idea: you must go AFK during conversations for very weird reasons. You succeed if someone else calls you out on it 3 times

Task suggestion: every yes/no decision made must be made using a coin

The subtitles are *AMAZING* like anyone youtuber who adds subtitles instantly has my respect since I can’t hear that well, and like my gosh.

Task Idea / Suggestion:
Picky Protector:
In every interaction you must choose one of the people present to protect. If it’s nighttime, you protect them from specifically mobs. If it’s daytime, then players.
If your chosen person takes damage more than a heart under your protection, you fail.
Beware of red names in the day, monsters at night.

The enderman stealing the dirt and Grain panicking with Cleo laughing so hard in the back ground is a gold tier clip

[Task idea] By any means necessary get another player to involuntarily fall at least 50 blocks. (They don't need to take damage from the fall)

Task idea: Call everyone by their full youtube username for the entire session

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!

Cleo’s laugh gives me life

I don’t think I can put to words the sheer joy and laughter the life series give me, watched all of them and wanted to say it’s really amazing 😊

Task Idea: You must pick two other players to reroll with you for a hard task. You are allowed to help each other but if even one of you fail to complete their task you all fail.

TASK IDEA: If anyone asks you about your task, you must tell them you have already completed it and make up a fake task to tell them you completed. Every time you get asked, you must make up a different task. You fail if you get called out for lying.

Task idea: You are unable to say no to any request from anyone for the entire session.

Task Idea: Become a mini secret keeper wannabe. Go up to people 1on1 and ask them if they have succeeded in their task. If they have, reward them with something confusing or useless. If they haven't or have failed, give them vague advice on behalf of the secret keeper. Once you have rewarded or advised 5 people, you have completed this task. Yellow names are worth double.

Love the moments when Cleo has to save Grian with Grian desperately screaming for help from Cleo

There is gonna be so many animatics of this session.
Especially Grian teetering on the edge of becoming a yellow.

7:21 cleo dying of laughter was hilarious😂

Grian rigging the machine AND WINNING AND GETTING OFF SCOTT FREE is absolute mood

Task Idea: Leave task book in an already made chest/furnace/ect in your base for the whole session. If anyone even teammates say anything about it you fail.

Each session gets better and better!

task idea: anytime you’re talking with a player and they mention the name of another player, you have to leave them and start talking to the name of the mentioned person

Grian and Etho are just going to start their episodes off standing at the re-roll button. 🤣

To the guy making the Task Compilations, it might be neat to change the perspective during Pearl’s section to whoever has the book, cause watching Grian’s scheming is amazing

Task idea,
"Approach a player and say you have something to show them at your base. If they say yes, walk in the complete opposite direction, insisting you know the way. The scenic route, must last at least 5 minutes."

Task Idea: get all the yellows to guess you task incorrectly, but each yellow has to guess something completely different from eachother

task idea pt 2: say everything like you’re reading from a script. try to cue or coach people on their lines for extra effect.

Task idea: you must do an impression of 3 separate people without them questioning it being for a task

Cleo had me falling out of my chair this session with that enderman farm bit.

Task suggestion: Listen out for what resource someone else needs/wants. Gather up an excessive amount of said resource and flood their base with it without them catching you. Alternatively, casually sell the excessive amount of said resource to them for a ludicrous price. If you are caught by your target player or accused of eavesdropping, you must move on to a new player. If this happens 3 times, you will fail your task. You may ask other players about what someone wants, but be cautious when doing so.

the way Jimmy inched forward, looked down at your item, just _gasped_ quietly & immediately ran away

Task idea: You are going through a personality crisis. After every interaction you have, you must take on the personality of the person you had the interaction with (when the interaction involves more than one person you can decide what person to morph into).

You completed your task because it says that they don’t need to ask so essentially you have to join in on your own without them asking so technically you didn’t fail but if you want you can take a poll with the other players and see what they think

Task idea : you can only answer questions with more questions, you must last half the session without being called out on it.

Task idea : You must say a line from a musical at least once every conversation if you get called out for doing so then you fail . Task is succeeded at end of session.

Task suggestion: For the whole session, whenever you talk to someone, do an impression of that person.

Grian’s high screeched “HELP ME CLEO!” Scream needs to be animated 🤣

Holy crap I was gripped with fear that whole time-Grian with one heart is crazy hard for me to watch. Sprint jumping everywhere, with extra parkour just for fun... building towers... doing a diving board competition!? I'm gonna have to take some deep breaths after all of that 💀

Hard task or regular task. Make sure solidarity is the first person out this series if he isn’t the first out you lose a life. If not completed in the session it carries over into the next session so on so forth.

Task suggestion: for 30 minutes of the session when talking to other players use signs as your way of speaking.

I have a task idea: Say yes to and do everything (not directly harmfull) people asks you to for the entire session.

Task idea: Make someone help you with an imaginary task for at least 5 minutes and not get called out on it if you do you can do it again. You will have to do this successfully twice with different people each time.

Grian subtly making sure he has no spare inventory slots when Pearl is around lol

I appreciate the work you put into manually distinguishing who says what in the captions, it really helps out a lot.
Edit: also i cant hear bdubs say "Cheese" without thinking of that time when him and an enderman formed a brief friendship back in season 7 of hermitcraft. 😅

Suggestion: You have to now use inappropriate tools on blocks for the entire session,
Example: Pickaxe on wood, Sword on dirt, Axe on stone, etc.
You're excused to use the correct tools only around Yellows and Reds.
If you accidentally use an appropriate tool for a block when you're alone or with greens, you fail once.
Two fails and you lose.

4:23
Bdubs has been in my top three hermits since season 6, Grian, Cleo and Etho are just voicing what we're all thinking lol.

Hard task:
You cant jump for the whole session

Task idea: convince someone you’ve completed a task you haven’t, if you’re called out you fail

The amount of luck that Grian survived that fall with one heart. Just as a reminder. He got feather falling 4 by essential pure chance and 3 wouldnt have saved him. Then he got 4 hearts. If Bdubs *didnt* give the heart Grian wouldve just flopped over dead. Grian you lucky man

Task ideas with friends:
1. when in conversations you must stair at them the whole time (So difficult for people who tend to move around a lot while talking, lol)
2. if someone is standing still you cannot see them
3. the 5th person you run into you must impersonate them for the rest of the session

Task( Could be made for Any Color, and any difficulty)
1. Get Ghast/blaze spawn eggs and spawn them in 3 ppl's bases when they r in their base. You fail if they die
2. Your task for today is to do nothing, go to the secret keeper and get your rewards But if smone intervenes u in the middle of the travel then u fail.
Thank you for reading and your time. 😊💚

Lovely videos and great content the whole community of yours got. Wish u all the best of life and that u keep making us smie and stay blessed 💚

Next life series sugestion : combining double life + secret life task but the soulmate got reroll each session like the secret task

I don’t think you failed your task! Depends how you look at it because there were 2 times you were presented with 2 gags which one do you follow? You were committed to Etho’s task and earlier the Heart Foundation instead of participating in Lizzie’s bday party like she said at the end of the session. I say you past. On the other hand they did say Grian jump the fire. lol That was a fun session. This season has been so fun!

Grian’s feather falling 4 gave him another life.

TASK IDEA: If someone talks to you, you must follow them until someone else talks to you. Once a new person does, you must then follow that person until another person comes along. You are allowed to talk to people and not have to follow them. Do this for the entire session. If you’re away from the person you have to follow for more than 5 seconds, you fail.

Task idea; Red Butler!! For the entire session, you must help the first Red Name you see with all their tasks. You can even let them in on the secret! You fail if you die or get called out by a Yellow. If you feel you can't do this task, you must reroll for a hard task either this session or the next

Suggestion: Aesthetically help someone else's base and get them to admit you improved it. The task doesn't count if they ask you to do it or cheer you on at any point. In that case, do a different base

This is the most fun watching a Minecraft I've had in a while. You guys and galls have such a great group dynamic!!!

Have yall noticed that Grian's and Mumbos tasks always compliment each others? At least the ones I remember. Tell puns/tell jokes that no one laughs to, Have someone guess your task is dancing/be forced to be around more than one person, get involved in everything/involve people in competitions,

Task idea: You are a vampire, you cannot enter any building or base unless you are given explicit permission to do so

Task idea: Stay in the Backwards F5 view (selfie view or whatever you call it) for the entire session. If you change your camera view you fail the task.
Task can be completed before end of session if you take a screenshot of yourself with all yellows.

the little "I do!" at the end, that was wholesome
top tier episode for the laughs, as always :D

TASK IDEA: For the whole session, don't stop moving your feet. This means no using benches or tables of any kind. Once you close the book, you have a five-minute grace period to do any crafting/enchanting/anything you might need for the session.

The difficulty with Gran's task is that there are four or five things going on at any one moment and it's impossible to join in on them all.

Secret Task Idea: For 20 minutes, you can only respond to other members using the words in their question. You can say a word more than once.

My anxiety was skyrocketing this episode with Grian being at 1 heart

An honourable ending Grian - you could have called the end of the session up the tower, but gave Etho a few more moments to return the book, and as a result failed your task right at the end. You're a good egg when all's said and done!

I'm very into storyline and I think it would be awesome if you made a final two deal with Scar that when you were both red to kill everyone else and recreate the 3rd Life ending, except when/if it happens you tell Scar that he has to kill you because that's the only way this will end, I feel like that's the proper way to end the series if you have no more Life Series ideas and it's a good way to connect it with the Watchers and Evo, good luck to you Grian, would love to see it

Task idea (for reds):
Get someone to say or imply that theyll not die in a paticular manner. Now your task is to make them die in that manner. Doesnt count if they only say or imply that theyll not die because of you or if they say something that's completely impossible to do on the server. In either case you may try again with someone else. If they either die due to some other way, dont die by the end of session or they did die in that manner on their own without your involvement consider it as a fail.

Task ideas:
make at least 3 puns related to the names of 5 of the others.
give 2 people the task of stalking each other (constantly watching them from a distance) for 10 minutes, but they must restart the timer if the other sees them.
