"Should we let people know about the targets, or see if people find them themselves?"

And how much shorter are the walls?

"I was going to let everyone know? Otherwise it's just a test of who figures out the game first."

The walls are almost entirely gone! There's a little bit left around the back, but that's all.

The walls being mostly gone is a metaphorical weight off his shoulders.

"One can't really compete to find them the fastest if you do not know they exist."

"Yeah, exactly. --How should we announce it, like, should we put it in chat or just tell everyone to join VC 5 orrrrrr...?"

"Chat may be simplest?" (Because wrangling everyone into the one voice chat sounds complicated and like herding excitable cats.)

"Okay, yeah, sure!"

<Tubbo_> new game! we have hidden targets around the server. if you shoot the targets you will get a prize!

(He types slowly, and sounds the words out to himself as he does.)

"We'll see how long it takes people. ...and if Dream wins, as predicted."

“Hell yeah! …I guess everyone could just, like, lie. But whatever. It’ll be fun!”

This will hopefully improve morale in L'Manburg. "We could all do with a little fun."

“Hell yeah. We could play too but it’s not as fun, we already know where everything is. I could set up a target here just for practice, though.”

(Meanwhile, elsewhere on the server: Dream is putting a mildly unreasonable amount of effort into speedrunning hitting all the targets; Fundy has decided to dig up the mechanisms in order to just steal all of the diamonds.)

"Practice would definitely be worthwhile. I still have to get used to the bows here."

Tubbo can set that up! …And also detour real fast to steal either some arrows or an infinity bow for Jingyan to use, whichever he finds first. Oh hey here’s an infinity bow, that was easy. 

...He is not used to bows being able to just... produce arrows out of thin air. This shouldn't be working. Why.

"One day I will get used to this, and will find normal bows just as strange, but--" 

"--I mean, most bows can't do that, it's the enchantment on it. I mean, most swords can't set things on fire but fire aspect swords totally can. I can put that one back and get you a non-enchanted one if you want but then I'd have to find arrows and it'd be a whole thing."

"It's fine-- I'm just not used to infinite arrows or fiery swords even being a possibility." He shoots the target. It's a little off centre.

“Yeah, you’ll get used to it. Enchantments are great.”

"They're very useful. --I'm going to have to get some more xp and see about getting fire aspect."

"Alright, alright, I'm excited. --Oh, I should ask around if there are any mending villagers, I have a bunch of emeralds to trade for enchantments but I dunno where the villagers are anymore."

"This country has villagers?" That would make sense, otherwise the population of the nation is ten or so people, which is patently ridiculous.

"Uh, I don't think so. Phil has one? Techno used to have a bunch but then he, like, moved, so. I think Eret has some? We've had villagers before, just, like, we're kind of coming off getting blown up, so."

"...Phil has a villager. Singular."

"...Yes? XD doesn't allow villager breeding, if that's what you're confused about, he'd probably go to more effort to get more otherwise."

"Breeding? XD? --I feel like we have to be using the same words to refer to different things." Why would you be... directly intervening... in your villagers reproducing. Why has Philza kidnapped a man. What is going on.

"Oh. Um, villagers are--they, like, do different jobs depending which block you give them. And they say hrrrrrrrrn a lot. XD's--the admin? Of the server. DreamXD, technically, but I call him XD to distinguish. Technically the rules are no stealing, no griefing, no going to the end, no iron farms, no duping, no villager breeding, but the first two don't really get enforced ever. The others do, though, I used to have a villager farm and then XD killed them all, it sucked. ...I am not going to explain what breeding is, you can--" ask Tommy for that. "--you know, it's probably the same, and if it's not, I do not particularly want to be the one to explain what sex is. Like, no offense, but you look like you're twice my age at least."
