Team "Everyone Gets a Coin" decides to build a fortress around Spawn after an initial scuffle over the Totem, which is eventually revamped into a ''tower'' of chests and barrels, covering a small core of obsidian that contains the real chest where the Totem is kept in.

** Volume 2 of the channel's ''Highest Quality Video Game Rips'' series was a joke album; all songs in it were 245 copies of "Grand Metropolis" from ''VideoGame/SonicHeroes'' renamed to "Grand Dad Metropolis", obscuring the presence of the actual rip by that name (which was a hidden track in the original release, making it even harder to find).
** Subverted with "Circus". While there are hundreds of rips of remixes, switcheroos, and just plain other songs using its title, a straight rip of the song with no gimmicks is available -- and it's not in the ''Franchise/FiveNightsAtFreddys'' playlist. It is instead by itself in the Announcements playlist, as it was used to announce an album that compiled the original run of "Circus" rips.
