Yuzuki Choco Spots Her Thumbnail Scene in ARK During Day 16 of Track Laying
A giraffe in mid-air and a pile of building pieces lined up with the stream’s thumbnail, and Choco stopped to take the shot.
HOLOLIVE — Yuzuki Choco of Hololive’s second generation spent day 16 of her ARK stay on the Hololive server building a railway, and midway through the stream she found a scene that matched her thumbnail. Around the 1:45 mark she noticed a giraffe in the air and said the composition looked like the thumbnail’s. She suggested that if Fubuki lay down in the frame, it would be a recreation.
She tried a few angles, said turning the thumbnail into a live scene was harder than it looked, then reported that it had come together neatly. Before taking the screenshot she asked viewers which key clears the on-screen text, and chat answered with Backspace. A beaver wandering into the corner of the frame got in the way, and she said so as she lined up the shot.
“Look, look! The thumbnail, the thumbnail!” — Yuzuki Choco, spotting the scene
The track itself was the main work of the evening. Early on, chat marveled at how far the line had run, estimating that it covered about half of the island, and Choco credited the roughly 200 pillars she had made as a big factor. Later she said she was producing rails faster than pillars could be supplied, and that iron had stopped respawning for the time being. Near the 1:30 mark she joked that the giraffe was the one that had died most on the server.
Toward the end she said she had made 222 rails and 547 pillars that day, with about 800 more rails still to go, and that sleepiness was catching up with her. She thanked a fellow server member for helping, and said she planned to post a short every day at 17:00 from now on.
Chat greeted the thumbnail scene with a run of “thumbnail!” messages and applause. One Super Chat arrived, and the stream ended with a flood of “otsukareito,” the viewers’ sign-off for the streamer.
