- 1:07tinymaсdude gets a carved pumpkin stuck on his head, restricting his view.

Mining iron is awkward when looking at it can turn it into something else. In "Minecraft, but Staring at a Block Makes it Random," estabr0k and his co-players have to gather resources while their own gaze keeps changing the terrain.
There were no new uploads this week, but that challenge is the channel's busiest video right now, with about 169,000 views in total. tinymaсdude and __al1 join the attempt, which gives the group ten shared lives to beat the game. It also includes a Temu-sponsored segment.
The resource problem soon acquires a social problem: a carved pumpkin. tinymaсdude gets one stuck on his head, then later disconnects after estabr0k kills him during a dispute over it. Progress requires an apology and the return of his pumpkin and equipment. Apparently, keeping the team together takes more than finding a crafting table.
The channel added about 2,000 subscribers over the week, although daily viewing is currently below its usual level. It was also the quietest week for views among the nearby variety-gaming channels, while cdotkom and jenn drew substantial weekly audiences.
The older Goofy Gang videos remain part of the mix. "Goofy Gang Plays The Goofy Games..." is the next-busiest upload by daily views, followed by "Minecraft BUT Would You Rather is Unhinged..." The crew's difficult choices haven't disappeared; this time, even choosing which block to look at is a liability.
