Here is all the solar flare activity (< 48 hours) defined by the 1.1 X-flare and 7 m-flares. Notice all the activity now from the large sunspot cluster in the southern hemisphere, it appears to have woken up once it moved into alignment with 3I/ATLAS. Interesting...
Hi I really like your character analyses! Do you…prechance..have some yaps about solarflare you can share? Just curious… :3
ok omg im so sorry this took like two months to respond to. I do have solarflares thoughts but also i feel like they're too new for me to have actually deep thoughts on so i keep just being like.
Taken separately, Flame and Zam approach minecraft and smps in almost the most opposite ways possible.
For Flame, everything is statistical. Every drop of durability is counted, his inventory is always max efficiency for the kit, he always has dogs, he thinks of everything inclusive of why you would have an unenchanted shield.
And it's not even just pvp, to throw some meta into it, as a youtuber he is incredibly efficient about everything. he sticks to a schedule, knows what works, and doesn't understand why you would do stuff that isn't optimized to your benefit. why show up to a fight if you're going to loose, how is that good for your video.
He's like pvp civ minutetech but real life.
And then there's Zam. Free spirit, records an entire season of content and never makes a single video on it, plays the server entirely for fun and for the thrill of the story. He shows up with 8 hearts, has an inventory but won't take god apples, doesn't optimize his inventory for killing/winning, is a pacifist but also fights but also doesn't, sometimes traps and sometimes doesn't.
So already he's a mystery to Flame.
But wait there's more. Sometimes this kid rolls up with nothing and still wants a fight. Like what is he doing?!
In so many ways, Zam is incomprehensible to Flame.
And yet. And yet, despite his better judgement Flame finds that the most fun he's had fighting on lifesteal have been fighting against Zam. Sneaking through the woods with wardens around, jumping in and out of creakings. Flame will show up to a yap session and sometimes things just happen. He gets the opportunity to play with tnt, to play with dogs.
He starts so serious but time and again Zam draws him out and before he knows it he's giggling along.
Zam is intoxicating. Fun. Flame is confident he will never drop, but he's drawn back, over and over. Curious. Studying. Provoking.
And with each failed trap, I can't help but wonder if Flame's confidence grows. He learns he can escape anything, it's not that scary. Maybe his guard lowers. And the thrill of figuring out the trap, the thrill of fighting in absurd battles, keeps him coming back for more.
He thought at the start of the server that Zam would need protecting, so he protected him. Never killed him. But suddenly Zam stepped out as an opponent and instantly Flame smelled prey. Zam's still his little guy, he's it's just his little guy to torment.
The first image is where I'm exposing for the solar flares rather than the corona. The second image was taken by my partner as I fussed over my long lens set-up. I believe that's Venus below the sun in that shot, which goes far in showing what it looked like around us during the event. The final image was taken as totality ended.
While we had some thin, high clouds, they didn't really mess things up too badly. All in all a nice event to take in during a spring day!
