Secret Life: Episode 4 - A NEW ALLIANCE!

The fact that scar immediately joined in on the singing without any questions is the most scar thing ever

Task:
Find someone who already succeeded their task, ask them what it was, then go do it as well. If you get called out for doing the same task you fail.

Task idea: make everyone believe you’ve failed your task, but every time they ask you what youre task was you tell them an other task. And never the same one.

grian singing that one very long town name at 6:52 has honestly become one of my favorite moments in this series

Watching Grian mining is like watching a horror movie, with the poor victim that isn't good at combat trying to fight off the monster, just praying they somehow make it out alive

The first few seconds make me confident that everyone has a hidded challenge across the entire series, with grain's involving making as many bases as possible

Grian immediately burning everything he builds makes me want to think that theres a hidden task for each hermit that they have to do every session

Task Idea: You become a narrator for [player name] and narrate everything/most things they do like a wildlife documentary for half of the session. Potentially a hard task????

Task idea: Convince the entire server to set aside their differences for 10 minutes to have a nice thanksgiving dinner.

Task Idea: You must communicate through [player name] only talking directly towards them for a 30 minute timeframe.

We needed a musical episode. Scar and Grian singing a duet about the items is chefs kiss.

task: leave and join the server 5-10 times, each time you have to change something small with your skin, the other players should not question it.

grian singing, and gaslighting people into thinking that hes not singing is one of the funniest things.

Task Suggestion:
Hot Potato: You may show this task to other players. The first time you read this task, if you haven’t already completed or failed a task, you are it. This is now your task, you must swap your previous task with the person who gave you this task. At the end of the session, if you have this task, you have failed.

I could really feel Grian's stress as he tries so hard to not starve or get slayed inside the mines looking for diamonds.

suggestion - introduce yourself to half of the server like you have not met yet

Hearing you clap from laughing so hard when scar mentioned about people telling him to take the helmet off made that moment even funnier

Task idea: convince someone to reroll for a harder task

Task idea: change the language of the game to one of the easter egg languages(ex: Prirate speak or LOLCAT) and refer to the items with their new names. You succeed in your task if no one is suspicious by the end of the session.

Task idea: you can only eat fish for the whole session. If anyone mentions your task then you have to make a fish pun and throw fish at them.

suggestion: Secretly swap the beds of three players with different colors or types. If they call you out specifically, you fail.

Task idea: Ask somebody to correctly explain at least 3 functionalities (there are 4 overall) of redstone comparator and it can not be Mumbo.

Task idea: pretend you're sick the whole session without getting questioned

Task idea: Work the phrase “bear with me” 20 different times into conversation throughout the session without being called out.

secret task: you can not say the words yes or no for the entire session

Task idea: Act like your mic is muted for half of the session. But never actually mute your mic. This means you can lie your task, and when some yellows hears it and tries to fail you, you can just pretend you didnt hear it

If you ask questions, they have to be yes / no questions, if asked a question you're only allowed to respond with yes / no. Hope no one guesses your task!

Grian: I have a bad singing voice
Also Grian: Making the entire episode melodious and marvelous.

Task idea: you have pippopotomonstrausequippedaliophobia (fear of long words) you may only say words with 5 letters or less for 20 minutes of the session. If you fail you may retry once.

I love how Scar said near the beginning 2:45 that the items he was selling would save you in your time of need, and then at 21:00 grian was eating sweet berries which was actually one of the items in the chest. Scar was really right!

Task Idea: Switch personalities with [player name] for the whole session. They have the same task and you may share this with them.

retention rate has gotta be higher than the 0.2 Mumbo mentioned, I love Grian's singing, especially in duet with Scar!

Task idea: convince another player that their taks is too hard and they should reroll it

Task Idea: Anytime you come across 2 or more players, you MUST narrate what you thinks is happening in the style of a nature documentary.

Grian is giving me an actual heart attack every time there is dramatic music playing, I hear the music and think I'm playing dark souls. I'm almost certain he will lose a life every time

Task idea: You are now extremely shy. Any time you make eye contact with another player, you must freeze in place completely. No movement, looking around, or speaking. Once eye contact is broken, pretend like nothing happened. You must do this for 20 minutes. All time counted must be around other players.

I havent cackled this hard in a while. The singing was on point. God this was good.

Loving the idea of secret tasks this season, but some of them are a bit... too easy, others too HARD (like trying to protect Scar), and some are just difficult to discern whether they've been properly executed. Would love to see this twist done again, with all the kinks ironed out.

I love this musical! I now understand why the British love Grian and Sullivan so much. It's their default singing style.

Hard task idea: do whatever anyone tells and take everything seriously

Task idea: try to convince half the server to do a sing along to one of a Disney movie.

Task idea: get Mumbo to say “It’s really quite simple!”

Task idea: Make the most secure base you can and test it on an another player.

Task idea: have someone else talk for you the entire session, you are only allowed to talk to yourself, and the partner you choose to be with. you may share this with your partner.

Task idea: You know must make sound effects with your voice everytime your doing something for 15 minutes . From breaking blocks, swinging your sword etc.

task:
try to be as socially awkward as possible and get 5 people to not question your weirdness

Task Idea: Put a fish in every member on the server's inventory without them knowing it was from you. This means you can throw one and make them pick it up while they are in a chest or something.

It doesnt matter what grian will build in secret life: it will end with him burning it down

Task idea: weird people out for the whole session, and make sure they don't figure out what you are trying to achieve.

Task idea: Convince a player of a mechanic that doesn't actually exist and have them try it.
Edits:
Hard variant suggested by @SuperSpider9098: show them the mechanic "working" through some clever trick, then have them try it.
Convincing more than 1 or a convincing a certain randomized player could also be an option.

task idea: you must throw in a fun fact each conversation at least 10 times during this session

Can we get someone to remix this entire episode

Task idea: Say hi to everyone on the server at least once before talking to the same person twice!

You actually have a beautiful voice. I want a life smp musical now.

"This episode may not be watchable"
I think this was my favorite episode in any life series so far. The singing, Scar singing along, the betrayal, the caving adventure, the alliance, all of it was just pure gold

Such a fun series to watch! I only wish they all shared their task at the end of each session

this episode took a sharp turn towards uncanny valley about hallway through and in here for it

Task idea: ask 10 people for things you obviously already have

Task idea(s):
-Get [name(s)] to give you exactly 12 different items then eventually give them back as a “gift” somehow
-(For greens only) Act like a yellow, if you can successfully guess someone’s task this is complete (idk if the other person should fail), if not complete by the end of the session you fail
-Follow someone and repeat everything they say for (time), if everyone you try to repeat during the session calls you out you fail.
-Convince everyone your mic is messed up, then only talk with signs (no actually talking through chat), if someone properly calls you out then you fail

I have a few questions for the red life tasks, 1. Will they still press the succeed button or fail button? 2. Can a yellow still call them out? For example if a red is blatantly trying to kill a yellow can they make them fail therefore saving their life?

Task Suggestion:
For the entirety of this session, every time you see someone take damage, you have to warn them about the danger far too late.

task idea: during 2 different conversations, make up lore about secret life that has no correlation to any previously established lore or fanon. the other players must either play along with you or ignore you but they cannot suspect you.

New secret idea suggestion: you must have at least 10 conversations where, somewhere in the conversation, you dig a 1 block hole underneath you and stay there for the remainder of the conversation. You can do this multiple times with the same person, but not in a row.

Task idea: You must refer to everyone by their real life names. If anyone questions why you referred to them this way, you cannot talk to them for the rest of the session.

this task was SO enjoyable to watch

The second half of this episode being a horror movie was one heck of a tonal shift

Love this so much. Task idea! You have to bring back a joke from an old Life Series successfully in 3 conversations

This has got to be the most chaotic season of the life series

Task idea: Convince someone that their game is glitched and have them leave and rejoin

Since Martyn mentioned gaslighting in Etho's video, this gave me a task idea.
Task: "Get someone to admit they did "it". Never elaborate on what "it" is."

Joel already tried to guess Scars task right before he guessed Grians😂

i love that the last episode ended with “im going to keep the egg i promise” then this episodes thumbnail being the egg on fire

The Life Series is my favorite Minecraft series! I’m always sad when it end but the next season is always worth it! Thank you for creating this! Maybe one season you can have a throw make to the shared life’s but each episode you have a new partner.

Secret idea: get a hermit to say a catchphrase associated with them

omg these sessions are always hilarious but i laughed the hardest at this one 💀💀

Seeing Grian lose all those hearts just hurt my soul

Hard Task idea: Convince 2 people that Grian's skin is secretly based off of Paul McCartney and get them to confront him about it.

Task idea: Tell [player name] that your task is to assist them in whatever they need during the session. However, you must secretly sabotage everything they do without them catching on.

Task: Make your voice higher for an entire session, and don't get caught by the yellows.

Suggestion: The second you interact with another person, you are not allowed to be alone at all for the rest of the session until you press the button

2 task ideas:
1) Make the whole group gather at least twice during the episode
2)Don’t say any words beginning with a vowel for 20m

the way this goes from silly goofy musical to horror movie so fast

For nearly all of this session grain was just a bird, he lived in an egg, was singing for the first 10 minutes. He's now Songbird Grian.

This series is just full of everyone confusing everyone, its the best

There is almost nothing funnier than at 34:12 "Get off the horse.... get off the horse" in British accent. That made me laugh SO hard. I swear. Poor Mumbo. LOL. This is something you do not hear every day and that's what makes it so hilarious.

Task idea: Convince someone to live in their base for the whole session, if you get kicked out you fail

This episode has convinced me of one thing, we need a hermitcraft series where there's musical episodes every so often

Task Idea: Change one pixel on your skin to a reasonably noticeable color, the pixel must be visible at all times (not hidden in the arms or under shoes) and you must not be called out on it more than 5 times (by different people)

The fact that Scar sings with Grian is just sooo wholesome!!

Task idea: Find the weirdest or unique block (in your opinion) and hold it on your hand until someone notice without telling them.

Task idea: Get 2 different people to tell you they are uncomfortable. This cannot happen in the same instance, it has to be in different conversations or circumstances.

I think that Grian should do a Hobbit audiobook, I want to hear him sing Tom Bombadil’s lines

I love how Bdubs and Scar just started singing along

That was great!
Task idea if you're still taking them: throw a party for the server, with cake and cookies. Make sure everyone gets a piece of cake and a cookie.

I noticed, that whenever Mumbo is in the radar, or any other player is in range, Grian will always be on a block or two higher than everybody else.
And Now I believe that it is because compared to Mumbo, Grian is so short IRL that he's trying to make himself taller in Minecraft

You sell yourself short, that singing portion was friggin hilarious

I loved Grian singing. I would never skip such an angel of a voice

Task Suggestion: get 3 different yellows to guess that your task is COMPLETELY different from the other guesses. Their guesses must have different subjects (i.e. "you have to ride a *horse*" and "you have to leave your *horse* at other people's bases" are similar) and different actions (i.e. "you bring a zombie into a crowd" and "you bring a creeper into a crowd" are similar)

etho is like a puppy dog the way he acts weird all the time is so funny to me

Cleo and Mumbo ratting Grian out to Joel Lmaoo but little did they know he needs it and Joel’s reaction and all of em was everything 😂😂😂
