SuperMCGamer, also known as MC Gamer, or simply MC, is an American Let's Play commentator and a member of Mindcrack, having joined the Mindcrack Server in December 2011 after asking Guude if he could join.[1] His former Minecraft username was mcgamer.

Biography[edit]

MC wearing his signature orange suit

MC's username originated from a webshow in 2006 centered around gaming that he and a friend, named Cutter, created. "MC" was their initials. MC kept the name following this point.[2][3] When he was registering his Minecraft username, he somehow was not able to place capital letters, twice (first for mcgamer and second for mc_gamer).[4] This problem led some people to say or type his name as "McGamer".[5][6] MC added the "Super" part to his username because the username "mcgamer" was already taken on YouTube, by a group of people he refers to as "the trampoline kids."[3][7] MC changed his Minecraft username to "SuperMCGamer" in February 2015.[8]

MC operates a production company known as "Kinstone" that runs events such as Zeldathon.

Due to false flags in YouTube's spam filters, MC's channel was terminated by YouTube on 23 June 2014,[9] but restored on 26 June 2014.[10]

MC is of Norwegian and Irish descent - Norwegian on his mother's side, while Irish on his father's side.[11] MC is a huge fan of The Legend of Zelda series, he even has a large Zelda collection.[12][13]

Computer specs[edit]

MC Gamer has a custom-built computer:

  • Processor: AMD Ryzen 9 3900X
  • RAM: 32GB
  • Video: GTX 1080ti
  • Microphone: Shure SM7B

The YouTube avatar of SuperMCGamer

MC Gamer had a series titled "MCPlz," in which he played particularly terrible flash games. MC challenged his friend The_Silver to different multiplayer games in one of his earliest series MC vs. Silver. "MC IRL" was a series that highlighted the antics of MC and his roommates in real life. MCFAQ featured frequently asked questions being answered, as the title suggests. MC hosts a gaming podcast entitled "The Temporary Podcast," along with DireDwarf and several of his local friends. In addition, MC hosts the radio show "Hyrule Academy," available at radiohyrule.com, discussing the lore and history of The Legend of Zelda. In his most recent series, Zelda Weekly, MC discusses news, theories, and fan creations surrounding The Legend of Zelda. MC played the title character in the short series Mr. Ubiquitous. Mr. Ubiquitous was created for a high school vocabulary contest.[14] The show was featured prominently on MC's first YouTube channel, TNMC Productions, alongside "enNemM," a series of short skits performed by MC and his friends. MC posts Weekly Channel Updates and Behind the Scenes videos after reaching a Patreon milestone.

In Minecraft, MC has a running gag where he is obsessed with Lapis Lazuli. This first originated in an early episode of MC vs. MC.[15][16] MC has catchphrases he uses while playing in Minecraft , including saying "bane of arthropods" whenever he attacks regardless of the mob or the weapon, and "bucket of caving" whenever he uses a Water Bucket.

Mindcrack[edit]

MC was considered the youngest member of the server for some time before Arkas revealed his age.[17] He got involved in Mindcrack when he was looking to have a new Minecraft Let's Play and Mhykol referred him to Guude.[18]

MC had a near-daily series titled "Good Morning Mindcrack." It's purpose was for MC to talk more often to the viewers about what is on his mind and about updates in the time it takes to eat breakfast, and was the main medium through which he played on the server. The intro scene was recorded in his Fun for Freedom Minecraft server. The scene is meant to represent a kitchen and the daily morning routine: putting something in the oven to eat, grabbing a cup of coffee, and throwing a newspaper on the table.[19] At the beginning of each episode since 27 May 2012, pictures of his fans eating breakfast were displayed. A picture could be submitted to MC at http://bit.ly/GMMFormE2 but are no longer shown. MC did collaborations with Millbee in a series titled "Orange Wool." They reconstructed a village and named it Woolopolis, No Shoes. Following which, they created a second town named Dooceaipolis 2poo, which is also part of their solo episodes.

MC had a previous series called "Challenge Mindcrack," in which he fulfills challenges submitted by viewers. Every time he failed a challenge, he throws blocks of Lapis Lazuli into Lava. MC had another series titled "Mindcrack at Dusk," it was streamed live simultaneously on YouTube and Twitch. MC also briefly played on the modded Feed The Beast server and had plans to build Emmett Brown's garage from Back to the Future.[citation needed]

Minecraft skin[edit]

MC's skin used through 2020 was based on Giovanni from the Japanese franchise Pokémon. The back of his shirt contains "The Spawn" logo, a gaming community website. The skin was custom-made by his friend The_Silver.[20] Later, the skin was modified to remove shoes from the character. This is a reference to the Orange Wool town named "Woolopolis! NO SHOES!"
