Skizzleman and TheMythicalSausage - this one's pretty much the safest guess. They've both worked with multiple hermits before

SmallishBeans and LDShadowLady - This one's another obvious one. I think their dynamic would make the server even more chaotic

Stampylongnose and Squaishey - These two are much less likely to join, but I'd be interested to see what they'd do on the Hermitcraft server

GoodTimesWithScar and Mumbo Jumbo - It's a pretty safe decision to add them as new members, considering they're already on the server

HBomb94 and CoughingBaby94 - HBomb is already friends with multiple hermits, and these two are basically a package deal

Iilluminaughtii and James Somerton - It's not like they have anything better to do

Two additional, smaller Grians - They can follow Regular-Sized Grian around and crack jokes

Two random dudes who have never played Minecraft before - It would be nice to give the smaller creators a spotlight

Every member of Quackity SMP fused into two giant flesh abominations - This could be an exciting way to bring the whole mcyt fandom together like never before

Doctor Dre and Snoop Dogg - Name a more iconic duo. I'll wait

Nebraska Man and Piltdown Man - Don't let the fact that they're well-known archaeological hoaxes fool you, these two are accomplished builders and redstoners, and they'd fit in well with the current server members

Ometecuhtli and Omecihuatl - It would be interesting to see what fun new dynamics two primordial Aztec creation deities bring to the server

Like, there exists a whole class of people who truly believe that purchasing/faking the image of being Knowledgeable and SkilledTM is the same as the real thing as long as they get away with it. And under capitalism, that's considered the right instinct.

And while they obviously resent the truly invested and passionate people who run parallel to them in whatever field they exist in (because they'd be natural foils for their own insecurities), they also consider them suckers for investing the time and energy into developing their abilities or body of knowledge for something as inconsequential as pleasure or fulfillment.

Hence the mental gymnastics necessary for bald-faced plagiarism or using/defending AI or whatever. It's not only the profound laziness and entitlement to the niche that they want; it's the complete disdain for the idea that in order to do what they want to be known for legitimately and well (as if they would), they would have to lower themselves to learn to do it in earnest like some sort of normie. Or, even more horrifically, that if they truly tried to do it in earnest, they simply aren't capable.

if you are sat there saying you should've known about anyone mentioned in the hbomberguy video (especially jimmy)...

no, you shouldn't have

it is not your responsibility as a viewer to fact-check a youtuber who makes video essays for a living. they exploited you and everyone else and non of it is your fault

you are a victim of their greedy self-centred behaviour and were exploited for money

you are not a bad person for enjoying content you thought was genuine

you are not part of the problem
