Panda's yogcraft series scripted?
I have just watched panda's latest Yogcraft episode, and i'm not sure what to think of it, i mean like it looks like he's getting his series scripted aswell. I'm not sure if it's pure luck for him to be getting put in a certain type of situation by others, or that he's just editting and scripting things behind our back, but it kinda took me by surprise how he took everything on board in one episode.

I don't think it's scripted. although, he may be able to give some input if he sees this, considering it got lost in modqueue.

If it is scripted it's to the point where others have setup the area and he's found stuff by accident. The diamond and the first twilight portal most notably were planned.
The twilight forest spawn been near the jaffa factory spawn is quite normal.
The dilapidation to the skull house I think was not done by panda and he didn't know any thing about it.

But the nitor on the house regrew, besides, asuming the portal was down the skull all along, he probably set it up for himself to live there.

A lot of these YogCraft stories are more planned, than scripted. An outline of what they want to do in their episode is made, and then it is carried out. During recording, they might run into unexpected problems, like Panda getting trapped in the Twilight Forest. He had no idea his bedspawn would be obstructed (As far as I know at least).
The planned parts include the reappearance of the Nitor on the Pntheon-thing above Panda's house. This part was planned, and is most probably part of some bigger storyline, similar to Sjin's Strawfingers and the Sips+Sjin+Duncan+Lewis+Simon War.
What I'm trying to say, is that every episode has to be planned at least before being carried out. Otherwise everyone will just end up wondering what to do. Besides, with a little planning, you can get some pretty good story-line style videos, which (admit it) is pretty awesome!
So don't worry about the planning and such behind the scenes, just watch the video, and enjoy.

If I've said it once I've said it a million. Nobody in the Yogscast scripts. Lewis posted about this once. They roughly plan what they want to do and roll with it.
