Super Minecraft
Cre Wallace
Super Minecraft Daily is the second season of Sly's long running series, "Minecraft Daily". This season employs a superhero theme with the 'Superheroes Unlimited' mod for Minecraft becoming the primary mod for the series, as well as the later implemented 'Project Superhuman' mod.
The first episode of this season was released on September 10th 2014, only two weeks after the Season 1 finale. Sly made the same promise from Season 1 to upload an episode every day for the entire year. The primary series regulars for this season are: Sly, Steven, Alex, Jose, Katukaz and Jess. Pbat was officially announced as a new regular from Ep. 41 onwards, and Kala began appearing as of episode 148 and onwards. The premise of the series revolves around the group acting as comic book superheroes. Each person has a choice of one specific unique superhero that they can portray.
A new feature included in the series was that individual or shared sessions by the series regulars could be recorded, or made off-recording, at any time on their main server. Some of the regulars (Jess, Sly) have created journals to mark their progress both on and off-screen. These journals were short lived, as they stopped updating them. One of the major rules on the server is that players can only use one teleport per session. Obtaining items through creative mode was not allowed unless absolutely necessary. Players were also allowed to build other superhero suits for use if the corresponding superhero had not yet been chosen by anyone in the series. Secondary suits are currently being used by every member in the series, excluding Steven.
The regulars have completed the process of creating their suits and are now building homes to live in throughout the server as well as experimenting with several different mods on the modpack. Five of the eight regulars have moved out of the Hall to build their own places.
As of Sly's Ep.105, the team decided to move to a new world as a fresh start due to the updated modpack. However, Sly and Co. decided to keep all of the larger or more "important" structures (The Hall, Teen Titan Tower, etc.) as well as all the suits that were completed and transferred them over to the new world.
Aphmau created an underground hall near spawn, which acts as an apartment complex for all the regulars and guests to live in. It is located beside an ocean and at the outskirts of a dense forest biome. The Hall is the official starting base for every person on the series and is only meant to be a temporary place to live. Everyone on the series has built their own isolated customizable room in the Hall. The lobby contains several community chests & gold furnaces that anyone can access, divergent mining tunnels, and a lava pool where players can discard useless items. Sly had an Advanced Enchanting Table, Crystal Chests, an Ender Chest and Extreme & Hell Furnaces in his room in the Hall.
The Nether portal is located at the end of the first corridor and is covered by fences to ensure that no mobs enter the Overworld. The Twilight Forest portal can be accessed through Katukaz's room near the lobby. This Twilight portal was broken by Alex and a new one was made outside the entrance of the Hall. A death arena was built at the end of the second corridor of the Hall, to host 1v1 battles. The first champion was "Catwoman", summoned by Katukaz, who was undefeated with 6 wins until she was easily defeated by Alex in his Superman outfit (Sly's Ep. 40).
Jess has been working on constructing a large-scale replica of the "Hall of Justice" from DC Comics, which is above the entrance of the official Hall. The death arena was removed so that the Hall of Justice could be expanded underground and have connections to the original Hall. Jess plans to create a final version of her courtroom at the rear end of the new Hall. An updated version of the death arena, named the "Colosseum", was built at a short distance away from the Hall. Jess hosted the first tournament, a strongman competition (Sly's Ep. 75, Jess' Ep. 39), in which participants would face each other in a glass box and synchronously hit each other once until one was killed. Sly was crowned the victor, prevailing over Jose and Steven with his Hulkbuster/Mjolnir suit and weapon combo.
Because of the map update, Sly said he would be moving back into the Hall until he had everything back. When Castor moved in, Sly and Jose complained that Castor had an easier start with all the available help such as the Enchanting room. Aphmau also made a room for Castor containg a chest, a drawer and a bed (which castor later traded with Aphmau for diamonds).
Currently, few heroes are using the hall, as most are building their own homes (Sly's Stark Tower, Katukaz's mansion). Due to complaints from Jose, Sly replaced the open entrances of the Hall (as well as the nether portal) with ineffable glass, so no monsters could enter it.
During Sly's Ep. 90, he announced that he was going to make a large replica of the DC Teen Titans Tower near his base, similar to Jess' build of the Hall. The Tower was to be as accurate a representation of the comic Teen Titans Tower as possible, with each floor going to one of the respective Teen Titans. The Teen Titans Tower was completed as of Sly's Ep. 109.
During the Tower's construction, Sly mostly made progress off-recording except for the start of the foundation and short updates during some episodes on its progress. One notable thing that occurred during the construction was the choice of normal glass versus black stained glass, as Sly used the former in the early stages of construction due to the slightly complicated nature of the black stained glass. This created some disagreement with the audience, and eventually Sly changed the windows' colours to black.
The material of the Tower is mostly mdee up of 2 blocks: quartz for the skeleton and black stained glass for the windows. The entrance to the Tower is made up of the vanishing blocks from the Twilight, and it is lead up to by a special path made of stardust-sand (made by the falling stars) rimmed by green wool. As previouslt stated, each floor of the tower "belongs" and represents one of the Teen Titans with the exception of the top floor lounge and the lobby.
The lobby does not represent any Teen Titan, but instead is is a display of all the special weapons, with swords in pedestals and other items hung on item frames on the wall. It also features a crystal chest connected to the quick item sorter arrangement Sly has built, as well as a hidden door underneath the staircase that contains two teleporters: one to the Hall and one to the top floor of the Tower. To counteract the loud sound effect of the teleporters and to keep the teleports themselves a secret, Sly also put a noise-cancelling block in the tiny alcove. Sly has a wall of armour stands on the bottom floor, meant for the suits of DC super heros. Robin is the only one currently on the wall (although he said he will make Superman soon).
The first floor represents Beast Boy, and currently the floor is made of dirt surrounded by glowstone. It doesn't have a specific purpose but Sly keeps fenced off rainbow trees on the dirt, presumably just for asthetics.
The second floor represents Cyborg, and the floor of the room is mdee up of a mix of iron blocks and wood planks, again surrounded by glowstone. The theme of the room is technology, so Sly made his sorting system connect and end up on this floor. The system is made up of special tubes that can move items from one chest and deposit those items into another chest depending on its content. There are also special selector tubes that filter by mod also used in the setup. The system is located in the corner of the room, with multiple levels of quartz portruding out of the wall with crystal chests in between. It also contains several extreme furnaces.
The third floor represents Raven, and instead of the normal pattern of block of choice surrounded by glowstone surronded by quartz, the floor is almost completely made up of obsidian, save for the same glowstone placement as the other floors. The theme of the floor, representing Raven, is magic, and Sly is currently working (along with the rest of the group) with the Thaumcraft mod on the floor. It also contains a non-activated Nether portal.
The top floor, being larger than the standard floor, is a bit different. The middle section is a common lounge, mirroring the actual lounge in the Teen Titans Tower in the Teen Titans universe, complete with a pet creeper named Silkie and a TV. There is a divider on either side of the lounge leading into the rooms, and looks to be wooden doors and quartz, but one of the sides contain a hidden quartz door, leading to Sly's connecting teleporter down on the lobby of the Tower, as well as special one-way glass. Sly has two main ideas for the floor: either make it one side Robin's room and one side Starfire's room, or make each side represent either MARVEL or DC superheroes. Sly made a wall of TV's to "watch the game".
Jess currently owns a large castle-like structure called Asgard by everyone in the server. It contains many rooms that have different purposes such as a library, a kitchen, a item sorting room and various other rooms concerning certain mods (ex. ExtraUtilities). It contains a "vault" which contains all her suits, made with octuple condensed cobblestone, so only she can access it.
As a small prank, Steven placed ceiling lava traps using Aurora Blocks in Sly and Kat's rooms in The Hall. Although no damage was done, Sly and Kat attempted to kill Steven, but they were both dispatched by his Green Lantern Ring (used as a melee weapon) which inflicted more damage with each successive hit. In retaliation, Steven's room was blown up by Kat, exposing the lava pit underneath. Sly then summoned Doomsday in the remains of Steven's room. Sly lost his Iron Man chestplate in the lava whilst attempting to kill Steven again. Steven was blamed by the duo for the resulting events, particularly for the loss of vital items. Steven claimed that he acted in self-defense when he was attacked and provoked after the traps were discovered.
