It was hosted on Website/YouTube via Machinima until their eventual shutdown in 2019, whereafter it would go on to be hosted on Newgrounds, where it remains to this day.
9
10The story revolves around three newbie Minecraft players who join a server one day, only to find it oppressed by the tyrannical Gaylord_Steambath. They resolve to fight him and his griefing ways, but must first meet powerful allies, learn what happened to the server, and, you know, learn the ropes of the game.
11
12As of May 2022, the remastered Youtube series can be found [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O4r0hWgx1-Y&list=PLhVfcvJstlve8dGJpSUBa-f67S2AANc2d here]].

20* AffectionateParody: Of both online gaming on {{Videogame/Minecraft}} and of online gaming in general.

22-->'''Gaylord_Steambath:''' Mm, they call me "Gaylord_Steambath"... I am the operator of this server... but, you may refer to me as... "God"...
23* AmbiguouslyGay: Fittingly, Gaylord_Steambath.
24* AnimatedOuttakes: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rLppA1wGHHM Released in]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5PxH-1j8FU three parts]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xAAJ-JNCJcA for the whole series]], primarily comprised of the voice actors Corpsing from several lines, with the characters animated along with this.
25* AnOfferYouCantRefuse: Gaylord proposes several of these.
26-->[[spoiler:'''Gaylord_Steambath:''' I am here to make you a deal involving the misfortune... of your companions...]]

28-->[[spoiler:'''Gaylord_Steambath:''' Oh, it is simply an offer you cannot refuse...]]
29* AnotherDimension: Applicable to the Nether and the End, both of which the noobs traverse during their journey.
30-->'''[=YoDa_MoRpHeUs=], about the End Portal:''' This... leads to another realm...
31* AntiClimax: [[spoiler:Xx_Dark_PvP_Hacker_xX spends several episodes hunting down N00bly's party, and once he finally corners them, [[UndignifiedDeath he falls in lava and dies.]]]]
32* AntiHero: As he is introduced, it certainly seems Milky_Dad is going to be this. [[spoiler:[[FaceHeelTurn But then again...]]]]
33* AntiquatedLinguistics: Gaylord's stereotypically noble demeanor dictates he speak like this.
34* ApocalypticLog: The journals of [[UnfortunateNames [=B0NER=]'s]] previous owner.

37* BackFromTheDead: Gaylord explicitly dies twice in the series, but comes back due to his ability to respawn.

38* BadassCape: [[spoiler:[=L0RD_S3RV3R=] wears one.]]
39* BadPeopleAbuseAnimals: When Xx_Dark_PvP_Hacker_xX is gearing up to [[spoiler: hunt down N00bly's party for Gaylord,]] there are several scenes of him gutting animals for their drops, and testing his weaponry on them, likely because of this trope.
40* BeatThemAtTheirOwnGame: N00bly and co. eventually realize that they, as a trio of newbie Minecraft players on a hardcore server, can't really do much to take down Gaylord for good. Instead, what they decide to do is to "out-grief" and "out-troll" Gaylord in the hopes that he ragequits.
41* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: Uglina the Witch saves the heroes from the Wither because, unlike Milky_Dad, they were nice to her and gave her a name.
42* BloodierAndGorier: The series as a whole is this to Minecraft. While the original game only ever has BloodlessCarnage, with all hostile mobs and defeated players disappearing into puffs of smoke, here Zombies, Skeletons, and Spiders get dismembered, decapitated, and stabbed with their corpses being left behind. Spurts of blood can also be seen on occasion coming from both injured mobs and other players.
43* BloodKnight: Out of the rest of the trio, Fart_Garfunkel is the one who is the most eager to fight. He also repeatedly displays a want for shotguns in Minecraft.

45* BrickJoke: [[spoiler: After Gaylord_Steambath gets banned, [=L0RD_S3RV3R=] says that all he needs to do now is install some plugins. At the end of the episode, the server is abruptly shut off, presumably to do just that.]]
46* BrownNoteBeing: [[spoiler:[[TheDreaded Herobrine]]. It seems the mere sight of him is enough to drive some people insane.]]
47* BrutalHonesty: Fart displays this in Episode 27, to comedic effect.
48-->'''Fart_Garfunkel:''' I’ve been meaning to say something since we first met...but I could never find the words...
49-->'''Fart_Garfunkel:''' When you die-, eh-, if you die... I'm probably gonna take all your shit.
50* BulletTime: This happens when Fart takes a shot at the Blaze in Episode 13.
51* ButNowIMustGo: [[spoiler:[=YoDa_MoRpHeUs=], at the end of his debut, saying he got grounded for playing too much Minecraft. He later makes a cameo in the finale after the server is freed.]]

53* CaughtInASnare: The trio are caught and held prisoner by Gaylord several times throughout the series.
54* ChewBubblegum: Fart quotes this at the end of Episode 10.
55-->'''Fart_Garfunkel:''' Looks like it's time to chew porkchops and kick ass...
56-->'''Fart_Garfunkel:''' ...And I'm all out of porkchops...
57* CityWithNoName: The main city in which the series started.
58* ComedicReliefCharacters: Fart_Garfunkel could classify as this.
59* CompanionCube: The sword Irene is this to Milky_Dad. [[spoiler:Which is why, after Milky_Dad betrays N00bly & co, Fart_Garfunkel (who just barely survived the former's betrayal) wants to make sure that Irene is going to be used in a [[AssShove certain, very specific]] way against Milky_Dad]]
60* CoolBike: In Episode 1, Fart mentions that Minecraft needs one of these.
61-->'''Fart_Garfunkel:''' You know what this game needs? Motorcycles!
62* CreepilyLongArms: Endermen, which appear several times throughout the series.
63* CurseCutShort: This happens twice with Snake; first in Episode 4, and later in Episode 20.
64* DeathCourse: Gaylord forces Fart to traverse one of these in Fappington Manor.
65* DeathTrap: Gaylord certainly seems to be fond of these.
66* DelusionsOfEloquence: Case and point: Gaylord.
67* DemandingTheirHead: [[spoiler:Gaylord offers a freedom deal to Xx_Dark_PvP_Hacker_xX on the condition he bring back the heads of N00bly, Snake and Fart.]]
68-->[[spoiler:'''Gaylord_Steambath:''' Your freedom, for, mmm... let's say... ''the price of three heads?'']]
69* DiesWideOpen: [[spoiler:The death of Pwny_Rainb0w and, to a lesser extent, Milky_Dad.]]
70* DigitalAbomination: [[spoiler:Herobrine. Nobody is sure what his motives are, what he is or why he exists, only that he stalks the world of Minecraft despite being removed with every new update.]]
71-->[[spoiler:'''Snake:''' I know they keep saying they took him out of the game, but... what people don't think about, is that he keeps getting removed after every update! That could mean that, somehow, he keeps coming back ''INTO'' the game.]]
72* DirtyCoward: Gaylord will quickly teleport himself or his enemies away whenever he's on the losing end.
73* DiskOneFinalBoss: [[spoiler:The Ender Dragon.]]
74* DisneyVillainDeath: [[spoiler: Gaylord_Steambath, in an attempt to kill the trio, ends up blowing himself up in a Nether Fortress. [[SlowMotionFall All in glorious slo-mo.]] [[DownplayedTrope Of course, by virtue of being an Operator, it doesn't do him in for good.]]]]
75* DoNotCallMePaul: Snake hates his IGN and gets snappy at anybody who refers to him as such, preferring he be called "Snake".
76* DontCallMeSir: Milky_Dad insists he simply be called by his full name after Snake refers to him as "Mr. Dad".
77* DontGoInTheWoods: The trio wander into a dark forest biome during their journey. Fart uncomfortably lampshades this sentiment a few times.
78-->'''Fart_Garfunkel:''' Darkness ain’t harmless, bros. I don’t like the looks of those woods. They look like... evil Disney woods... or somethin'.
79[[spoiler:Fart's discomfort would be realized, as shortly afterwards, the trio are attacked by Xx_Dark_PvP_Hacker_xX.]]
80* DoubleEntendre: Fart drops one of these after fishing up a Guardian in Episode 25. This trope is also applicable to the subtle jokes about [=B0NER=]'s name.
81-->'''Fart_Garfunkel:''' I caught it with my elite baiting skills. That’s why my grandma used to call me the "Master Baiter"!
82* EnemyRisingBehind: [[spoiler:Herobrine in Episode 20.]]
83* EstablishingShot: The shot of the city in Episode 3, complete with an orchestral flourish.
84* EverybodyKnewAlready: Milky_Dad repeats the story of Gaylord's takeover, only for Fart to interrupt by stating this.
85* EveryManHasHisPrice: [[spoiler:Upon learning of Milky_Dad's successful escape from his Nether imprisonment, Gaylord summons him and proposes a deal involving the betrayal of the trio. When Milky_Dad seems hesitant to accept, Gaylord convinces him by offering Milky_Dad his freedom.]]
86* EvilLaugh: Gaylord does this often.
87* EvilTowerOfOminousness: Milky_Dad's Tower of Power.

92-->'''Fart_Garfunkel:''' But I tell you, totally tubular friends of the Nether... we have something he doesn't!
93-->'''Fart_Garfunkel:''' Three words: normal length pants.
94* FantasticRacism: Milky_Dad ''really'' hates [=NPC=]s.
95* FarmBoy: Fart speaks with a southern drawl, and says a number of things that suggests he grew up on a farm.
96-->'''Fart_Garfunkel:''' He's probably just a pampered little city boy. Probably can't even ride a pig.
97-->'''Fart_Garfunkel:''' Well... at least not like I could...
98* FelonyMisdemeanor: When confronted by [=L0RD_S3RV3R=] on his actions, [[RationalizingtheOverkill Gaylord attempts to justify them]] by claiming the trio are guilty of this, to no avail.
99-->'''Gaylord_Steambath:''' These hoodlums were just about to get their medicine for the crime of... murdering a horse... and... defacing fine art...
100* FictionalDocument: Episode 21. Fart finds a book titled, "The Legality Of Potion Brewing From An International Perspective".

104* {{Foreshadowing}}: This happens throughout several episodes. Some instances include...
105** Milky_Dad agrees to help N00bly and Snake rescue Fart, on a few conditions; one of which being, Milky_Dad going AWOL if they "run into a Wither". [[spoiler:Milky_Dad would later create a Wither in an attempt to kill them.]]
106** Fart argues with Gaylord that neither he nor his companions would make deals with Gaylord. As he names said companions, he mentions Milky_Dad, [[spoiler:who would later go on to make a deal with Gaylord.]]
107** Herobrine appears in the background of many episodes. [[spoiler:He becomes an important plot point later in the series.]]
108* ForTheEvulz[=/=]ItAmusedMe: Everything Gaylord_Steambath does. [[spoiler:Played with near the end; he claims it's the former, but his actions as a griefer suggest the latter.]]
109* FourthWallPortrait: Played with. See "Art Shift" above.
110* FreezeFrameBonus: Many Youtubers appear as cameos in The N00b Adventures. [[spoiler:Herobrine's many hidden appearances also count for this.]]
111* FreudianExcuse: [[spoiler:Gaylord_Steambath claims to come from a broken family, and to have been bullied in school. [[InvertedTrope He quickly reveals he's lying, and attacks N00bly while he's distracted]].]]

119* GetAHoldOfYourselfMan: In Episode 21, Fart brings a catatonic Snake back to his senses with a good old-fashioned punch in the face.
120* GivingTheSwordToANoob: Only three noobs can defeat evil!
121** The best equipment among the group is also given to N00bly, the noobiest of the three. Fart gets second priority of high grade equipment as well.
122* GRatedDrug: Milky_Dad's merchandise, which includes unspecified potions, mushrooms, and Glowstone Dust, none of which (aside from maybe the potions) have any intoxicating effects in the actual game. [[spoiler:He "goes straight" after Gaylord_Steambath is banned, opening a pharmaceutical stand.]]
123* {{Griefer}}: Gaylord_Steambath. Hackers like "Xx_Dark_PvP_Hacker_xX" count as well.
124* GroinAttack: In Episode 11, N00bly stabs an Enderman in the groin. Later, in Episode 16, Fart punches an Enderman in the groin.
125* HarpoDoesSomethingFunny: Played with. According to the series creator, much of the comedy stemmed from the voice actors engaging in impromptu {{Improv}} - particularly by Jeff Schwertfeger (the voice actor of Fart_Garfunkel, Gaylord_Steambath and Milky_Dad).
126* HeelFaceDoorSlam: [[spoiler: Milky_Dad. See HeroKiller.]]
127* HehHehYouSaidX: Fart breaks down laughing over [=B0NER=]'s name; dirty jokes ensue.

130* HereThereBeDragons: "Here be Dragons" is the title of Episode 8.
131* HeroKiller: [[spoiler:Milky_Dad drops Fart in a dark pit to prove his new loyalty to Gaylord. Luckily, Fart survives.]]

133* HiddenHarasser: Gaylord becomes this later in the series by drinking a [[MagicPotion Potion of Invisibility]] and toying with N00bly.
134* HoistByHisOwnPetard: All of the major villains go out like this.
135** [[spoiler: Xx_Dark_PvP_Hacker_xX abuses his speed and jump hacks to chase N00bly & Co. When the trio find themselves standing next to a lava pool, Xx_Dark_PvP_Hacker_xX jumps down to attack them, only to fall in the lava pool [[AntiClimax as a result of his lack of skill.]]]]
136** [[spoiler: Milky_Dad betrays the noob trio and becomes Gaylord's right hand man, only for Gaylord to later backstab him ForTheEvulz.]]
137** [[spoiler: In Episode 28, Gaylord traps the trio in a room full of TNT, which he lights. They combat log to avoid dying to this, but Gaylord is too busy monologuing to notice. The resulting explosion throws him backwards into the lava. {{Downplayed}}, however, as Gaylord's Operator status negates the need to be careful.]]
138* HugeRiderTinyMount: Fart and Descartes.
139* HumanSacrifice: [[spoiler:Gaylord seals his deal with Milky_Dad by forcing Milky_Dad to drop Fart down a deadly pit.]] Later, Gaylord pulls prisoners from his Nether dungeon in order to kill them to lift his mood.
140* HurricaneOfPuns: Fart rattles off a bunch of puns about skulls in Episode 17.
141* ICallItVera: Milky_Dad's iron sword, Irene. Doubles as a CompanionCube.
142* JokerJury: Parodied. [[spoiler:Upon trapping the trio within the Nether Fortress using TNT, Gaylord speaks to them as though he's a judge delivering their final sentencing.]]
143-->[[spoiler:'''Gaylord_Steambath:''' This court finds you guilty of treachery! The sentence? Death, by explosionry!]]
144* KnightOfCerebus: Xx_Dark_PvP_Hacker_xX. [[spoiler:Subverted, though, since, after a long buildup of him hunting down the trio, his lack of actual skill (thus his use of hacks) comes to bite him in the ass in the form of a deadly EpicFail]].
145* LargeHam: Only Gaylord is capable of turning creepy flamboyance into this. And that's not even going into his speeches. If you want know what we're talking about just scroll down until you find ''ShutUpHannibal'' and read his quote. Or, you know, just watch the series...
146* LaserGuidedKarma: [[spoiler: Milky_Dad backstabs the trio by aligning himself with Gaylord. As a reward, he is [[DeathByIrony literally]] [[KarmicDeath backstabbed]] by Gaylord later.]]
147* LateToTheTragedy: By the time N00bly, Fart and Snake join the server, Gaylord's administration has already done quite a number on it.
148* LaughingAtYourOwnJokes: Fart does this a lot.
149* LeeroyJenkins: Fart yells this as he jumps into the End Portal in Episode 7.
150* LeParkour: Fart is forced to do this in order to survive Fappington Manor.
151* LetsGetOutOfHere: Although this trope is mainly exercised by the main three, everyone in the series runs from a dangerous situation at least once.
152* MadnessMantra: [[spoiler:After encountering Herobrine, a catatonic Snake mindlessly repeats phrases such as, "Gotta get out of this mine", "Gotta go away from here", and "Gotta get out".]]
153* ManOfAThousandVoices: Jeff Schwertfeger, who voices Fart_Garfunkel, Gaylord_Steambath, ''and'' Milky_Dad, none of whom sound ''anything'' like each other.
154* MeaningfulName: [=YoDa_MoRpHeUs=] and, possibly, Gaylord_Steambath. Also applies to Xx_Dark_PvP_Hacker_xX who, as his name suggests, is a hacker.
155** YoungerThanTheyLook: Played with. Despite [=YoDa_MoRpHeUs=] being an Obi-Wan {{expy}}, with Yoda's name, it's pretty easy to tell he's a kid in real life. [[spoiler: At the end of his debut episode, he has to leave, because he got grounded for playing Minecraft for too long.]]
156* MediumBlending: Although most of the visuals in The N00b Adventures are 2D, most backgrounds are traced from in-game screenshots. There are also instances of 3D-animated sequences throughout the series, such as specific particle effects, the Ender Dragon, the Blaze in Episode 13, and the Wither.
157* {{Metaphorgotten}}: Gaylord makes up his own idioms occasionally when not making quote references.
158* MissingStepsPlan: The entire plan to take down Gaylord. [[spoiler:When the Nether prisoners prod for information, N00bly realizes the holes in their plan.]]
159* MissionBriefing: Happens in Episode 5.
160* MyLifeFlashedBeforeMyEyes: [[spoiler: After his own TNT trap goes off on him, Gaylord flashes back to all the chaos he caused after becoming an OP as he falls into lava.]]
161* NiceDayDeadlyNight: When night falls, hostile mobs begin to spawn and attack the heroes. This is a common occurrence in the series.
162-->'''Snake:''' Hey guys, the sun is setting and we don't have anything to build with. We probably should build a shelter before the monsters attack.
163* NonSequitur: Episode 3, in which Fart describes what he'd do to Gaylord if Minecraft had sniper rifles.
164-->'''Fart_Garfunkel:''' I'd shoot him in the face and then take his brain and give it a face and then shoot it in the face!
165-->''[silence]''
166-->'''Snake:''' So how should we handle this? Suggestions?
167* NoodleIncident: When the trio first meet Gaylord, he declines to comment on the whereabouts of the server populace, claiming the [[TyrantTakesTheHelm reason]] to be one of these.
168-->'''Gaylord_Steambath:''' They all left due to due to certain... jurisdictional conflicts which I'd rather not speak of at the moment...
169** Also, for whatever reason, Fart seems to have an irrational fear of being assaulted by the dwarves from ''{{WesternAnimation/Snow White|AndTheSevenDwarfs}}'', to the point that zombie villagers completely frighten him. The weird part, though, is that his phobia seems to come from a mysterious and unspecified past trauma, as the first thing he says after being jumped by a baby zombie villager is: ''"It's all coming back to me!"''
170** [[spoiler:In addition, the final episode has N00bly inquire why [=L0RD_S3RV3R=] would give Operator to Gaylord, to which [=L0RD_S3RV3R=] explained Gaylord's reason for promotion being large monetary donations... in old, Spanish gold coins, which apparently arrived to [=L0RD_S3RV3R=]'s house from different locations across the world, all with Gaylord's name on them. This isn't explained at all.]]
171* NotQuiteDead: Fart being dropped into the pit in Episode 14. [[spoiler:His fate isn't revealed until Episode 16, where it is revealed he survived the fall by landing in some conveniently placed cobwebs.]]
172* ObviouslyEvil: Xx_Dark_PvP_Hacker_xX. If it couldn't be inferred from his name, his skin with all-black clothing, a mask and goggles give it away.
173* OfferedTheCrown: [[spoiler:Played with. Although the trio do not outright defeat Gaylord themselves, [=L0RD_S3RV3R=] offers them Operator for their [[HeroismEqualsJobQualification good deeds and trustworthy nature.]]]]
174* OfficialFanSubmittedContent: The lines "Fight me like a man, and not some... invisi-bitch." and "You shorts-wearing nancy boy!" come from fans; the first coming from a player on the actual real-life Minecraft server, the second coming from one of the server staff who had won a contest.
175* OhCrap: There are many instances of this throughout the series, but the most notable occurs in Episode 8.
176-->'''N00bly:''' Oh, crap! I'm pretty sure this was a mistake...
177* OverlyLongName: Xx_Dark_PvP_Hacker_xX has the longest name in the series.
178-->'''Milky_Dad:''' Xx - underscore - Dark - underscore - [=PvP=] - underscore - Hacker - underscore - x-capital-X!
179* {{Permadeath}}: [[DeathIsCheap Death in Minecraft is cheap]], with the ability for dead players to respawn at a given spawnpoint. Unfortunately, this is not possible in Hardcore Mode, which the server has been established to be.
180* PlummetPerspective: This happens twice; once in Episode 14, and again in Episode 17.
181* PointOfNoReturn: Episode 19. When the trio are overwhelmed by hostile mobs, they flee into a nearby mine to escape. Unfortunately, thanks to the mine entrance being rigged with TNT, the way out is destroyed, trapping Snake and Fart inside. This also causes an InvoluntaryGroupSplit.
182* PreMortemOneLiner: Fart delivers one of these as he prepares to shoot Gaylord. Slightly subverted, however, when Gaylord teleports Fart away before he can take the shot.
183* QuipToBlack: Fart_Garfunkel is ''very'' fond of this, even possessing [[Series/CSIMiami a pair of sunglasses]] for just such an occasion.
184* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: [=L0RD_S3RV3R=] filled this role before his disappearance.
185* RedShirt: The Nether prisoners that Gaylord slaughters for fun. One of them is even named "Red_Shirt101".
186* {{Remaster}}: "The N00b Adventures" has been remastered twice since its initial run on Machinima.
187* RoaringRampageOfRevenge: Fart makes it his goal to [[spoiler:personally ram Irene up Milky_Dad's "blocky asshole".]]
188* ScreamsLikeALittleGirl: Fart does this several times throughout the series. Snake also does it [[spoiler:after encountering Herobrine in Episode 20]].
189* ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney: [[spoiler:According to [=L0RD_S3RV3R=], Gaylord was chosen as the next Operator not because of his abilities, but because of his large monetary donations to the server. He is still banned in the end when [=L0RD_S3RV3R=] discovers what he's been doing, though.]]
190* SeeYouInHell: Milky_Dad says this after he backstabs Gaylord.
191* ShameIfSomethingHappened: Gaylord directly states this mere moments before blowing up Fart's rollercoaster in Episode 4.
192* ShotgunsAreJustBetter: There are no shotguns in Minecraft, but this doesn't stop Fart from saying every once in a while that he ''really'' wishes there were.
193* ShoutOut: The series is chock full of these, from movies to other video games, and even some classic literature.
194* ShutUpHannibal: Near the beginning of Episode 28, [[spoiler: Gaylord monologues about how his existence gives the noobs purpose and that, without him, they'd be common players wasting away in dirt shacks, harvesting wheat and waiting for the cobblestone to bake. N00bly isn't having it, though.]]
195-->'''N00bly:''' Dude... you're just a dick.
196** This happens again later in the same episode.
197-->'''Gaylord_Steambath:''' Fine. You win this battle, but heed my words, and heed them well, inferiors...
198-->'''Gaylord_Steambath:''' You may think that removing my powers will save you from grief... but there are hundreds, ''thousands'' more just like me!
199-->'''Gaylord_Steambath:''' Enjoy your moment of serendipity! For I, '''Gaylord_Steambath, Eater of Worlds shall prevail!'''--
200-->[[spoiler:'''[=L0RD_S3RV3R=]:''' Uh-huh, okay, that's nice. Bye!]]
201--->[[spoiler:'''Gaylord_Steambath has been banned. ''']]
202* SicEm: After a defeat at the hands of the trio, Gaylord enlists the help of a hacker to take them down.
203* SissyVillain: Check out those short shorts on Gaylord Steambath!
204* SixthRanger: Milky_Dad.
205* SixthRangerTraitor: [[spoiler:The above becomes Gaylord_Steambath's Dragon.]]
206* SkywardScream: Fart does this in Episode 11. Could also be classified as a BigNo moment.
207* SlowMotionFall: N00bly falling into the ravine in Episode 17. [[spoiler:This would happen again later in Episode 28 as Gaylord falls into the lava.]]

220* TemptingFate: [[UrbanLegendOfZelda To quote Snake: "There are no ghosts in Minecraft."]]

223* TheDragon: [[spoiler:Milky_Dad, later in the series.]]

231* TheSmartGuy: Snake does his best to fill this role by keeping a level head and coming up with the plans. He also seems to know the most about the game.

235* TyrantTakesTheHelm: Although it happened before the start of the series, Gaylord's rise to Operator constitutes as this.

238-->'''Fart_Garfunkel:''' HOLY TURTLE PENIS!
239* UsefulBook: Fart uses a book he found in a mineshaft chest to [[spoiler:shield himself from Herobrine. Herobrine leaves, no thanks to the book, but Fart believe the book to be holy as a result. Later, he tries to use it to magically cure a bunch of zombies... to no avail.]]

249* VomitIndiscretionShot: Episode 6. Fart eats a chunk of Rotten Flesh and begins throwing up. He throws up again at the end of the episode.
250* VulgarHumour: Very prevalent in the series, and not too different from the kind of humor you'd find in an actual online game chatbox.
251* WalkieTalkieGagOver: Episode 2. Fart briefly communicates as though he were speaking through a walkie-talkie, even giving out comedic codenames.

259-->'''[=YoDa_MoRpHeUs=]:''' Silverfish... [[WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes Why did it have]] [[Film/RaidersOfTheLostArk to be Silverfish...]]
260Fart is also terrified of Baby Zombies, likening them to the Dwarves from ''{{WesternAnimation/Snow White|AndTheSevenDwarfs}}.''
