Kurt welcomes us back to SpeedRunners! MCGamer, Millbee and Coestar join us once again too!
First is the Theme Park stage reversed. MCGamer does very well but Millbee wins this one. The inside joke Fajesus is born here!
Millbee wins the second one as well.
Third is SpeedHookers in the Factory stage. Watch for an excellent super slo mo moment between Kurt and MCGamer! Kurt eventually wins this one. Yay :)
My personal journey to catch up on watching YouTuber kurtjmac on his expedition to the Far Lands in Minecraft beta 1.7.3! Welcome!

Far Lands or Bust! #426
Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofJYcqW5GUk
Current distance from Kurt: 109 episodes. Gaining!
Kurt hears footsteps but it's only a pig. On him and Wolfie go to the Far Lands!
BDoubleO from the MindCrack server gave a generous donation from his recent livestream. Good man :)
Kurt comes across fascinating fragmented ice in the water he crosses. It looks pretty sweet and you can see it forming in front of your eyes. Kurt takes a couple of screen shots.
So, Donator BDoubleO asks "Are snapback flat bill hats cool? You are very fashionable and I respect your opinion!"
He says he's not sure as he doesn't have a good head for hats! He generally recommends custom fitted ones. As for me, my head is a bit big for those hats too so I'd usually wear stocking ones too if any.
On the second day, Kurt talks about shopping for a new keyboard and mouse.
While discussing this he expertly drains a zombie spawner. Nothing too interesting in it though.
He talks about shopping for a car too.
On the last day Kurt answers some more donator questions!
Patron Rick asks "What colours do you decorate your Christmas tree?"
Kurt says he has multi-coloured lights, Simpsons and Star Wars ornaments too. :) As for me, I like using the lights and baubles and a Super Mario Star Man too on the tree.
Patron Zack asks "Do you think you and VintageBeef will play F1 when it gets the new engine on the PC?"
Kurt says he'd like to.
Donator Anonymous asks "Would you say there are life lessons you've learned while being on the way to the Far Lands?"
He answers not so much life lessons but more about how to run a show like this. Have I learned any life lessons from watching him? Hm... I can't think of anything but I generally like having someone like Kurt to look up to since he's slightly older than me and he faces things in life I may soon face.

Far Lands or Bust! #425
Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lw8iFge_hAg
Current distance from Kurt: 110. Lagging!
We join Kurt as he plants some trees and does a Sean Connery impression!
He talks about the tablet he purchased recently during the first day.
On the second day he answers donator questions.
Donator DeltaWhiskey, a generous donator, asks "So, do you like stuff?"
He says he likes his new tablet :) and talks more about it.
He makes a nice little sand crater by removing a block.
Donator M4C0 asks "Do you have plans to create another charity series in parallel?"
He says he doesn't and is focusing on Far Lands or Bust! right now.
Donator Baldy asks "To celebrate the New Horizons probe waking up, which long term space mission in progress are you most excited in seeing the long term conclusion?"
While asking, Kurt spots a creeper party down in a hole.
Kurt talks about New Horizons, Juno and Dawn as ones he's looking forward to.
Patron ConeDodger asks "Do you think interest in space travel is finally starting to become popular or "cool" again, or am I just looking through rose-tinted glasses again in light of recent events?"
He says it's hard to say. Seems most people may not be aware of a lot of recent goings on.
Patron Devon asks "Have you ever thought about or donated blood before?"
He says he hasn't. No particular reason though besides the needles!
Donator Trake asks "Many episodes ago you spoke about tattoos and how you were interested in them. Have you thought any more since about getting one? What would you do if you did?"
He's still thinking about it. Maybe a tribute to his deceased pet turtle Speedy. Wouldn't bother with tattoos myself.

Kurt Plays Forza Horizon 2 EP21
Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=datJ4Qr59p4
Kurt drives around in his souped up old ride and takes on a bucket list challenge in a speedy supercar. He barely fails the first attempt due to flipping in the air before the end. He's not used to the right sided drive either. He wins on his next attempt.
Afterwards he jump cuts to the next race, which is cross country. I guess Kurt picked the older car because "Cult Classics" was the theme. It's a slower race but he comes second which is a pretty good place.
He goes on to the next event and does alright in that one too. Kind of a different game when you're not driving in flashy speedy cars.

We join Kurt as he talks about shopping for a car in real life. Soon afterwards his VW bus is ready and fully refurbished. A new barn find is announced and he shops for a new (in-game) car.
After choosing he takes a road trip to Castelletto. It's a slower car so he jump cuts. It's back to the garage to upgrade this 1970 Nissan Datsun 510. Maybe it's fun to upgrade an older car like this to be more powerful?

MindCrack UHC 19 E03
Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Nnaz9H61PE
Back with Kurt and VintageBeef in the spawner they just raided. Kurt hears something and then it's back to whispering. I wonder if that works since they're using microphones? All of a sudden, he and Beef are completely outnumbered and lose... so quickly into the episode too :(
Kurt doesn't respawn so he hangs out with MCGamer, one of the guys who got the drop on them. They chat for a while, since they're still able to talk using Mumble. Kurt can't be seen though so he's like a ghost. Woo!
During UHC, they usually pad out their videos to full length if they die. I don't know if I can do the same with a blog post though!

Kurt Plays Forza Horizon 2 EP19
Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t8wrG-8AHf0
We join again with Kurt as he seeks out the barn in the countryside that's supposed to have a car inside. He eventually finds it and it has a rusty Volkswagen Type 2 inside. It's quite strange to see! Strange it is too that we can just take any car they find in a barn in this game.
Kurt goes on to do a street race event. He lags behind and forgets he turned off the flashbacks. He manages to catch up though and although he comes in 9th, he's still on top in ranking due to winning so much previously.
Afterwards he browses perks and takes a photo of a car. He seeks a cheeseboard in the middle of some café's chairs and hits everything except the cheeseboard!
