I've recently begun doing dual Minecraft commentaries with my "commentary partner", if you will, and I'm really excited about the reception I've been getting. We put it on Youtube, and some of my friends who followed my Mario commentary jumped on board the Minecraft commentary and have been really enjoying it. However, none of them play Minecraft or have really heard of it. I've been looking for the opinion of some Minecraft players and people who are into commentaries in general.
I might use this blog to update my commentary releases and maybe gage what people may or may not like to see in a Minecraft commentary or in another game. I really hope some of you guys will enjoy and I'd appreciate any feedback possible.

A Stab at Minecraft Commentary
I've recently begun doing dual Minecraft commentaries with my "commentary partner", if you will, and I'm really excited about the reception I've been getting.

Pretty funny, makes me want to play Minecraft again. This is coming from someone who hasn't played Minecraft since it was in its earliest form. Can't wait for the next one.
Still though, any suggestions for what we could do are welcome. They might not make it in for a while (we pre-record pretty far ahead), but they definitely will at some point.
Hey guys just thought I'd update and let you know that Episode 7 is up:
Episode 7: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2tJjNVVwRCY
Hey guys, quick update: Episode 9 and 10 are out now! Check them out :)
" @ToxikPandaKoi: Great! :) Thanks. If you have suggestions for future videos let me know, we try to take everything into consideration. "What do you use for rendering vidoes? I use windows movie maker. So it takes for freaking ever.
I don't particularly like Let's Plays, nor Minecraft, but I actually enjoyed your videos. I like the more casual approach you two take to your videos. You play well off each other, and I think it makes the commentary more entertaining than traditional Let's Plays.
@Mechanical_Ape: That's really awesome. Thanks! I'm glad we're having that kind of effect on people.
Thanks for the support everyone. Again, we're open to any suggestions or requests or feedback of any sort.
" @The_Laughing_Man: I use Screenflow (Mac) to capture my screen as well as record our voice and render it out in Apple ProRes 422 (HQ) codec, then edit it all in Final Cut Pro and render it out in h.264. I'm a film student though so this is what I actually do :PIm trying to self teach. I am using a PC and rendering takes ages.
@Mechanical_Ape: That's really awesome. Thanks! I'm glad we're having that kind of effect on people. Thanks for the support everyone. Again, we're open to any suggestions or requests or feedback of any sort. "
" @The_Laughing_Man: Rendering always takes a long time, unfortunately. Even with super high end computers it can take a while. What codec are you rendering out at? "No clue lol. Just using Windows movie maker. Course fraps makes it worse since it makes massive file sizes which I reduse to like a tenth of the size
" @CaptainCody: Thank you :)Uhhh HD? Im not sure. I had to mess with files to even get it to render in HD
@The_Laughing_Man: When you export it out of Windows Movie Maker, what file extension is it using? And are there advanced options for the file extension? You'll have to forgive me, I haven't used WMM in many years haha. "
@GetEveryone: Thanks! :) Episode are up every Sunday, Tuesday and Thursday night. They were originally supposed to be Monday, Wed, Fri but I kept putting them up at midnight so its unofficially changed to those nights :P
Episode 11 is up everyone. I hope you all enjoy. Again, any sort of feedback is appreciated!

Regarding that skeleton that spawned by your bed multiple times after sleeping in it in one of the episodes:
http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Bed
"To ensure that you are not awakened unnecessarily during the night, the bed must not be placed along a 1 block thick wall, unless the area on the other side of the wall is also safe. If a hostile mob can get within 2 blocks of the bed, even if the blocks are separated by a wall, you will be awakened with the hostile mob standing next to you. There appears to be a slight delay before the mob attacks you, giving you time to get the first blow."
So, yeah, that would appear to be what happened. Consider making the wall separating your bedroom from the outside thicker :P
Hey guys. Parts 13 and 14 are up now, I would love it if you'd check them out. Let me know what you think. After 16 is all stuff we recorded lately and took a lot of your suggestions so stay tuned. We also started an Amnesia playthrough so if you're interested it's on the channel.
Episode 13: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vx_fb1vUeVY
Episode 14: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vlbBdo-Z25A
Hey guys, Episode 15 is up! Check it out:
Episode 15: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZsZX_Xbzfy4
Something else I forgot to mention. Are you aware you can use the sneak function to get on the edge of a block you're standing on and see its sides without falling off? You could have used that to build that dirt bridge where you kept falling off and dying. No need to inch out, just hold down the sneak button and it'll disallow you from stepping off the block.
@JP_Russell: Hahah yeah we learned that eventually. I believe we use it in an upcoming episode. Thanks though!
Hey everyone, just adding that after a bit of a delay, Episode 16 is up! Check it out. This is the last episode from the first set of recordings we did, everything after is fairly recent.
Episode 16: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=08qfxQnhrfw
Hey guys. It's been quite a while but we've put up two episodes tonight. Apologies to those who follow us, I've started work again and have been busy. Anyways, this is the beginning of a whole new batch of recordings so they're on version 1.5. Hope you guys enjoy and let me know what you think!
Episode 17: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B_8y5dumJ7U
Episode 18: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YQMpwyXklwQ
Hey everyone, just put up a new Minecraft episode! Check it out and I hope you enjoy.
Episode 19: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CV1lFQy9kis
When water and flowing lava (as opposed to a lava source block) collide, it creates cobblestone. That's why that cobblestone is between the water and lava streams.
Also, if you didn't know, wolves whine periodically when their health is low, which is why you hear your dog whining here and there. The angle of its tail corresponds to the percentage of its health, so at 100% health its tail will be raised just above horizontal (100 degrees). Also, each pork chop you give it only heals 15%.
