Genuinely what “in lore” option was Zam able to do that wasn’t “logging” off and having such a bitter ending. That guy refused to leave on such bad terms after he thought Spoke betrayed that even when Mapicc told him to log off to not give him the satisfaction he said no

So to a person who won’t log off, what could he have done.

I feel like he knew that the control room wouldn’t be able to save such a messed up world. He knew Spoke wouldn’t do that so in the end it would just crumble regardless.

Zam was told to his face that if he banned himself he would of been brought back and that there were prevention methods to stopping him from killing himself. Literally was given god stuff and got them taken away instantly.

He knew where he stood, he couldn’t have any hope left after confirming he himself had no power without Spoke. Like he was told and saw every counter reason to anything he could have done.

Zam had nothing

Now imagine if he knew Ash or Vitalasy had op cause one of them had to have had op so long ago and just hid it as well

So if Zam knew that and if he didn’t go to Spoke first he would of totally still had hope.

It’s crazy how much power Vitalasy refused to use against Spoke despite hating him

In lore terms they totally would of had a chance if certain players wanted to but behind the scenes Vitalasy already agreed to not intervene so genuinely wtf were they supposed to do

I hate behind the scenes agreements, they kill the lore of it causes players to negate any reasoning for their actions

Man even Zam thought Vitalasy and Spoke were faking their hatred for each other but when it was genuine it made no sense. Wtf happened and even after he tried he gets ridiculed for it like damn

#I sound like c!Zam apologist but wtf was he supposed to do knowing his character never logs off #zy live thoughts #zy rants

[your-secondborn-child]

i haven't watched the vitalasy stream yet but rest assured i am going insane about the bedrock prison

#i love c!vi but also #i completely disagree with basically everything he said on zam's stream #anyways i need to find time to watch that stream

[sinoptics]

#thinking about c!zam makes me wanna fucking KILL MYSELF how did u make a character so good #he loves so much and just wants to feel safe but his ass can NOT stop getting hunted #the only thing stopping him from killing himself is the knowledge that doing so wouldn’t help his friends if he thought it would keep them #safe he’d do it in a heartbeat #even though they would never want that for him they don’t want him for his hearts or gear or strength they want him around bc they love him #and all he wants is to be left alone and he tried putting his hurt aside and patching things up with mapicc again and he got fucking killed #he wants SO BAD to be on good terms with mapicc and ro again but they will never treat him kindly. he misses his friends T_T but they r EVIL #i csnt. do this ANYMORE!!!!!!!!!!!

design experimenting. two completely incongruent dudes

originally put this in the tags but it was getting long. having fun trying to figure out how to approach ls designs... key tenets:

1) wildly clashing styles of dress

2) costume elements. if someone is wearing historical clothing they are effectively larping like that says something about you. clown being a clown says something about him. etc. leaning into ballet costume/wrestling costume/theater/etc depending on the character in question because it's fun.

in relation to a bunch of people intentionally dressing up weird, wearing normal clothes also says something ("there is no c!mapicc he just hates you" etc). mapicc wearing whatever the fuck is also related to like, you know when he starts wearing diamond so zam will quit freaking out. sometimes he wants to look like the underdog, and it also has to do with part of mapicc and zam's conflict in season 4 being about... how do i put it. the same parts of zam's playstyle that make him a useful ally are the things he stubbornly refuses to change even when it would be tactically smarter to do something else. he hates that mapicc won't ever just build a base, but mapicc not living the way zam does is part of what keeps them from getting even for so long. mapicc doesn't need villagers because zam sets up villagers and then dies to him and that feeds him gear. zam has a set of rules for how to play fair in his head that mapicc does not ascribe to, mapicc can play "weaker" and still come out on top because he's "cheating" by zam's rulebook.

so mapicc's design is meant to starkly contrast both ro and zam in different ways. ro design choices feel self explanatory, he's always trying to dramatize and then it lands in the goofiest way possible so he needs to be a little over the top. at the same time he completely refuses to take things seriously when it's OTHER people's thing in question, so he's a mix of trying to give off a certain image some of the time but expressive and kinda mocking in body language. he has "mostly monochrome vaguely historical outfit design" in common with zam because on top of the literal monochrome skins, they both have a thing about trying the same tactics over and over again regardless of evidence against its efficacy, trying to return to something or preserve something which is impossible to preserve by nature.

3) leaning away from animal or monster elements common to mcrp character design because i wanna focus in on how someone would choose to present themselves through both clothing and...

4) how much of your human face/body you're choosing to reveal (sliding scale of abstraction; some characters appear more or less human at different moments). so you can have inhuman designs but it leans away from the organic towards the symbolic if that makes sense. this is sort of my visual shorthand for how lifesteal's roleplay works but it's hard to explain what i mean by that

How similar do you think c!Zam and c!Jumper really are :3?

this is a good question

they’ve had very similar experiences but bias opinion incoming i’d like to hope I wasn’t as naive lmaooo. Although it’s 10x easier to see that from an outside perspective so chances are I most definitely was.

In that regard I’d say we’re very similar but the thing I wanted most out of that conversation was to corrupt jumper and by making that comparison I know it’s gonna mess with her head. She’s having a yap stream with minute now so I think I’ve succeeded quite well.

#hello it is me princezam #she’s doing it on Friday #probably a similar time as last time #so excited for that to happen and for me to also be doing my evil plans #They call me an agent of chaos

i feel like im committing so many sins by enjoying trans female headcanons of lifesteal characters that aren't c!zam. like i feel like if i ever posted any of my trans girl c!parrot fics i would get shot dead by the fandom. im just a silly trans girl projecting her identity onto her favourites but i still feel like? i'm doing something wrong? does this make sense i dont know where this is going.

i think to be honest my fear the fandom would witch-hunt me is because of the lack of trans girl stuff i see in this fandom (outside of c!zam and c!subz) but at the same time i kinda just sit there and im like. girl they would love your stuff what are you on about. do you get me. the trans girl headcanons live in my head. brainrotting. trans girl c!spoke brainrot. trans girl c!mapicc brainrot. trans girl c!planet brainrot.

sorry this is random i just. eugh. this trans girl needed to talk about her trans girl headcanons do you get me.

"I haven't gotten to mapicc's lvl yet, I'm not cool enough", said princezam (inaccurate quote)

i liked an idea for player!zam to have horns because of popularity of demon-like mapicc designs. all this arc is partially c!zam trying to align his actions and morals to mapicc morals to achieve shared goals. if mapicc says "no" he won't do it even if he wants to. if mapicc says "yes" he'll do it even if he doesn't want to. horns begin to grow as a symbol of relegation and as a way to adopt mapicc's trait and at the end zam looks just like another demon.

[irrealisms]

when i said i would have deranged rant abt c!zam yesterday i thought i was going to have derangements abt s4 zam. and that wasnt entirely false i am also having derangements about s4 zam but im also having derangements about s3 (just rewatched the finale with some friends and remembered why zam's s3 finale was the video that made me go Oh. i CARE about lifesteal now huh)

anyway i'm thinking about s3 finale era zam showing up to meet with spoke ready for a fight. his inventory full of gapples and cobwebs and potions. eighteen hearts. and he uses them! he throws regen on spoke and he puts cobwebs beneath spoke so spoke can't kill himself by jumping off the mountain and he throws spoke two hearts and gapples and begs him to use them. i'm thinking about, after spoke comes back, zam spawntrapped. refusing to give up, hitting spoke over and over again with a stone axe that does nothing as spoke kills him over and over. i'm thinking about spoke, a bit earlier, saying: doesn't this sound familiar? and he's talking about zam's own suicide-by-execution after the fall of the princezam empire, and he's not wrong, but his words also echo into their future, into s4: vitalasy in the end base, putting subz in cobwebs, throwing him hearts and gapples, begging him not to kill himself; zam with a stone sword, hitting roshambo over and over. i'm thinking about spoke, even earlier than that: lifesteal works in cycles. because it does, doesn't it? it's all the same thing. they're not the same people but also they kind of are. thinking about zam yelling i ruined it! it's all my fault! if anyone should be banned, it should be me! because he's the same person as the one who banned himself earlier in s3, the same person who almost banned himself twice in s4. because even though spoke's his enemy spoke's also his friend and he doesn't want spoke to die. he brought stuff to kill spoke but he doesn't want to ban spoke, doesn't want spoke to kill himself. he's trying to save the server from getting banned (even his enemies) and spoke is trying to ban the server (even himself). in voiceover in his video zam says "i couldn't save spoke." he couldn't save spoke. he tried to save spoke. his enemy! his enemy who spawnkills him twice in the same video! zam couldn't save him. spoke asking why zam is still trying. but zam has to save things just like spoke has to destroy things. zam can't give up because he just-- can't, it's not his nature, across seasons and servers zam Does Not Give Up. even when it kills him. maybe especially when it kills him. i keep coming back to the cobwebs and the gapples and the regen pots. he brought them to kill spoke and he's trying to use them to save spoke's life. MAN. man! in conclusion. sorry for being stuck on a thing that happened in s3. as if it's my fault

#lifesteal smp #lssmp #princezam #<- maintagging bc. um. i told zam yesterday onstream that i would write a deranged rant about his character. #lifesteal #zam #mcyt #thinking also about how roshambo kills spoke #<roshambogames> before i go #<roshambogames> this is because we were friends #<roshambogames> and this is what you want #like 0h 0kay. im normal about that. #bonus fact: i mention subz's suicide because i was the one who suggested in chat to vitalasy to put subz in cobwebs #and i did that because i was thinking of this moment #the visual of it is so . idk it stood out to me.

I’m like wait why tf does Zam care about the “rest of the server”

I will name them and explain why his morals shouldn’t care and change cause his reasoning is stupid

Spoke - evil

Parrot - willingly inactive / school

Vortex - stole the 1st jerry on 4(?) hearts somewhere

Woogie - active/ hangs with Pangi

Rekrap - can’t give a single fuck about lifesteal rn

Branzy - comes online when asked to

Clown - recently came back

Cube - focusing on school

Leo - recently came back

Jaron - he’s in Solar union

Planet - Is in everyone’s business all the time

Bacon - literally the news reporter of lifesteal

Subz - trying to stay offline/ online when asked

Vitalasy - an emotional mess / exploiter

Red - took a damn break cause his build was griefed

Pangi - is back and investigating

Mid - Arg stuff + other smps

Roshambo - online a lot

Mapic - online but with Spoke

Ash - Evil + school

Clutch - Blitz apparently

Speptical - ???

Poafa - building far away

Terrain - lost & confused + a spy

“For the server” WHAT SERVER?!?!?!??

Hoping c!Zam wakes up and just betrays every team he’s in to inflict emotional pain and go back to one person at the end of everything

He called himself Icarus and should grab every person he can before flying into the sun

#trying not to hate c!Zam is really hard #random zy thought 💭

thinking about last night's girl talk w zam and planet again. (zam stream, jan 23)

c!planet has always stood out in the lifesteal crowd as one of the few players who doesnt seem to take part in lifesteal's characteristic distrust and cycles of revenge. in season 4 alone, planet's only main channel video so far - "breaking survival minecraft to get revenge" - doesnt really contain any real "revenge" at all. planet and his teammates are routinely knocked down by other, stronger players; used as bodies in a war they dont have much of a stake in (besides the thrill of having duped hearts), imprisoned, killed, spawn trapped, banned, etc etc. their bases get found and used. but it doesnt really bother planet, at least not in any lasting way. planet doesnt hold grudges, he was able to stand with three heart trio and say he didnt think zam was a bad person, even after zam pointed out repeatedly all of the ways he had wronged planet, bacon, and jaron personally

part of it is just who planet is, I think. they're not the kind of person to get too fussed about the sides and conflict. they routinely make light of it when they abruptly pull out a sword on bacon and start monologuing about how they were "working against him this whole time". during the latter part of girl talk w zam they bemoaned how zam wasnt "besties" with mapicc and ro anymore - even though zam was evil when he was with them, to planet, they had been friends, and friendship breaking up is sad!

planet sees that zam is scared and tries to help talk him through some of it, puts him through a series of bizarre "scenarios" to test zam's trust - up to and including begging zam for over an hour to let planet into the new eclipse base, to which zam eventually complied - all of the scenarios are things which, had the player been anybody but planetlord, may have been actual traps or threats to zam's life. planet does care, but on some level just doesn't fully understand the position that zam is in.

zam has been harassed*, stalked*, and threatened* by mapicc (*in a video game) for months now, and planet - who is on good terms with just about everybody, including mapicc - cant really understand why zam cant just let it go. planet themself has let a lot of things go, but zam has never been afforded that privilege - mapicc refuses to forget him.

as a result, a lot of planet's advice and thoughts for zam, especially in the "therapy session" part of girl talk, seemed to lean a lot into toxic positivity. just stop being scared and you wont be scared. mapicc doesnt care about you as much as you think, etc. it's all about mindset! I think some of that advice is helpful (especially during this week - cc!mapicc is recovering from surgery and unable to be online, and ro is unlikely to do anything without mapicc there, so there isnt really any reason to be afraid of mapicc logging in) but a lot of it is not constructive for princezam long-term. and zam even said as much at one point!

I think planet is like this in part due to their more easygoing nature, but also because planet has never really been afforded the privilege of being in the position to enact revenge in the first place. their team was named "three heart trio" for a reason! of the three of them planet is the biggest grinder and usually has some extra hearts stashed away, but overall they dont have anywhere near the kind of resources other teams might have: team shades are basically all on 20 hearts, the eclipse federation has subz' grindset and firepower, and team awesome is stacked with both the hearts and power to succeed, with the addition of their abuse of the pearl and gapple glitches and leftovers from the duping war.

compared to all of that, theres no way bacon, planet, and jaron can match up. that doesnt mean they dont try, because they do! they try to fight anyways, and they take some Ws now and then! they keep grinding and they keep hanging in there, refusing to give up. but I think, when you're that disadvantaged in a server that's unforgiving as lifesteal is and can be, on some level they let stuff go because they cant afford to hold a grudge.

at the start of the APO vs team awesome war, planet, bacon, and jaron had to decide what they wanted to do. they had received an offer from team awesome to join them, with the promise of a lot of hearts for each of them if they did join. bacon expressed his misgivings by saying that (paraphrased) "team awesome did all this bad stuff to us. it wouldnt really make sense, character wise, to join them now". but they joined team awesome anyway, and they set aside their hesitation and the memories of an obsidian prison and bloody knuckles, and marveled at the feeling of a healthbar on 14. how powerful it made them feel.
