After my last video (where I showcased an industrial smelting machine) where I got the idea to play survival mode on a superflat world, I looked up some things and discovered that not only is it possible, it is pretty cool. This new series is the result. I started a superflat world with custom presets and got off to a decent start, but at the end of this video it looks like I'll need to take this challenge a bit more seriously in the upcoming episodes.

I completed Ethos latest speed challenge on my first try (after he failed both of the attempts he showed), as long as you dont count the time I spawned in 2-deep water.
The challenge is to construct a jukebox using a diamond found in a cave (not a stripmine) and to play a record disk in it, all on hardcore mode and without using the jump key once. The challenge is a LOT harder than Etho originally thought, and I knew from the beginning that it would probably take a while. Ironically, the part of the task Etho died twice trying to achieve (the record) wasnt the big issue for me, it was the single diamond.")
