Announcing... MINECON Live

I’ve never changed my name, but only because if I change my name to Baron Sweetcheeks, my family and friends have promised to never speak to me again. But in more successful name-changing news, MINECON is back, with the awesome new title of MINECON Live!

Let’s embrace the new name with this announcement trailer:

As well as a lovely new name, MINECON Live will have:

• Minecraft news and the next major game update revealed!

• Panels with Minecraft experts!

• Your chance to vote on the next biome to be updated in Minecraft!

• Baron Sweetcheeks!

Oh, wait, I’m not actually going this year. That’s fine, because I can watch the livestream from anywhere in the world! Head over to Minecraft.net/minecon for more information.

Plus, if you have trouble remembering that the new name is MINECON Live, here’s a catchy jingle I’ve written to help you remember it:

MINECON is now called MINECON Live!

MINECON is now called MINECON Live!

MINECON is now called MINECON Live!

MINECON is still called MINECON Ear- I mean, is now called MINECON LIVE!

MINECON is now called MINECON Live!

MINECON is now called MINECON Live!

Just sing that for a few hours a day, every day, until September 28th (that’s the day of the livestream!) and that new name should sink in right around August. You’re welcome!

You can still watch last years MINECON on our YouTube channel. Or by clicking the video above this text. Or by reenacting it yourself with finger puppets. You do you!

But to be safe, every article on this website will now end with MINECON IS NOW CALLED MINECON LIVE and start with MINECON IS NOW CALLED MINECON LIVE and all the sentences in between will be MINECON IS NOW CALLED MINECON LIVE and the only videos in them will be a video of me screaming MINECON IS NOW CALLED MINECON LIVE while Jens runs away from me. You can’t run from the truth, Jens! And the truth is that MINECON IS NOW CALLED MINECON LIVE!!!
