EnderEnder

EnderEnder is a large scale enderman farm designed by Etho in the second season of Etho Plays Minecraft. It is located just outside the main end island and it is connected to it by a long stretched bridge, which he replaces later with an EATS road. It was eventually replaced by its successor, EnderEnder 2.0.

This farm is consisted of a set of rings floating above a platform made out of stone. The endermen spawn on the rings, then immediately trigger a piston which pushes them off which makes them fall onto the platform with only one health remaining.

History
The EnderEnder was built on episode 143rd episode of Etho Plays Minecraft, The EnderTrap, as an special project for his 100,000 subscriber special project. He first started by going through some alternate designed done by other people, such as docm77's sifter design, which used an exploit in the game to drop the endermen through blocks, or "sift" them, a funnel style, another style that uses the mob AI to make them fall down, and lastly, another design similar to his own, but somewhat different. After his demonstration, he got to building the actual farm. He used yellow wool as the main block for the rings, and black wool for where the the power is for the base of power transmitters. He also used melons for the corner of the rings.

On episode 147, Spawn Timer, the second ring of the EnderEnder was built. Etho also showed the missing melons, and planned to fix them by replacing them with either green, lime, or orange wool. In episode 151, Etho Q&A, Etho answered some of his most frequently asked questions while building a third ring for the EnderEnder. But however, he was interrupted because an enderman pushed him off the ring, causing him to die and loose some of his best items.

In episode 152, The Ender Ender, he showcased the finished EnderEnder from below. He also mentioned that he changed the melons in the corners with something that the endermen were not able to move. He then started flooding the platform and pouring lava overtop to turn the cobblestone platform to stone platform. After he was finished with the ground, he started working on a killing mechanism. He tried standing in a 1x2x1 space (which is unreachable by the endermen) and looking at them. He then placed some rails and a moving minecart to automatically look at them when he is moving, but then he realized that the minecart moved too fast for the endermen. He also tried some other strategies, but eventually chose the first one.

For many episodes after, he visited the EnderEnder many times during the episode, if not spending part or all of it farming, enchanting, etc. etc.
