Category:Filler Episodes

Besides following the main story arc centering on Israphel, the Yogscast sometimes provides minecraft episodes that are not tied to the story in any way. These include adventure maps, mod spotlights, and reviews of Minecraft updates. There have been a variety of reasons provided for posting filler episodes rather than episodes from the main story, including waiting for technological fixes to Minecraft, needing to take a break, or simply wanting to show the Yognau(gh)ts something cool. It is worth noting that just because filler episodes are being produced does not mean that the main story is being neglected. [SPOILER] An example of this is the Survival Island series in season 2, which was tied into the main story by having Old_Peculier and Skylord_Lysander rescue the heroes from the island.[/SPOILER]

It is also important to note that although a filler episode or series of episodes may have no direct link to the Israphel story arc, it may still have an impact on how the heroes handle some situations. Some recurring events in the series originated in filler episodes, such as Lewis' technique of killing mobs by dropping sand or gravel on them.
