95 Degrees Mashup

The 95 Degrees Mashup is a yearly live event to celebrate the server's anniversary.

The first Mashup event went live on YouTube in 2018, followed by another YouTube stream in 2019. From 2020 onwards, the Mashup events were moved to Twitch - sacrificing YouTube's quality options feature for a lower latency overall.

95 Degrees Mashup 2018

The 95 Degrees Mashup 2018 was streamed live on Twitch on 13th July 2018, exactly two years after the server was created.

The stream began with a 15-minute 'starting soon' screen, followed by a 2-minute countown.

The stream was live for 44 minutes overall, peaking at 35 viewers and averaging 24 viewers.

Notable segments

• The 95 Degrees Network was announced, allowing server members to 'partner' their Twitch streams or Discord servers with the server in exchange for cross-promotion. Partnered streamers had to include the server widget (including the server link) visible on-stream in order to have their stream notifications enabled.

Trivia

95 Degrees Mashup 2019

95 Degrees Mashup 2019

The 95 Degrees Mashup returned in 2019 with updated branding and animations to coincide with the 95 Degrees v3 rebrand. This was the final time the event was streamed on YouTube.

2019's Mashup aimed to increase audience interactivity via Twitter integration, quizzes, and a Minecraft server during the pre-show.

The stream was live for 54 minutes overall, peaking at 36 viewers and averaging 24 viewers - almost the exact same as 2018.

Pre-show

The 95 Degrees Mashup 2019 began with a 30-minute pre-show to ensure everyone was watching the stream when the show officially began.

To fill time, viewers were encouraged to to "Tweet us an image using #95DegreesMashup!" and join a Minecraft creative server to build things related to the server. Tweets from viewers including the hashtag were displayed on-screen.

Quizzes were also displayed on-screen, and the audience was given 10 seconds to type "a", "b", "c" or "d" in the YouTube chat to vote - however, due to the YouTube stream delay, by the time viewers were able to see the poll on their screens, the voting process had already ended. In addition to the confusion, the polls system still counted votes while no polls were active, and there was no limit on the amount of votes one user could submit - so when the next poll was started, the system had counted multiple votes before the question was even visible to viewers. The quiz system was custom-built by William, a now-inactive member.

Notable segments

• "Start The Match" lyric video
• New/updated level roles announcement
• New Barista tease / announcement
• "Moving to Skype" joke segment

Trivia

• The event was called "95 Degrees Mashup 2" as it went live, but was renamed to "95 Degrees Mashup 2019" in the future.
• During the pre-show's Minecraft segment, some viewers built inappropriate structures and attempted to break the camera using Tridents.
• The first 18 minutes of the pre-show included no music.
• After a poll ended and disappeared, the screen flashed white. This was a bug that couldn't be fixed in time for the event.
• The polls for most Trivia segments didn't appear because Nath was busy setting up the new roles as the event was being streamed.
• This was the first 95 Degrees Mashup event to include a small list of selected nominees for each award.
• The majority of the show was set up as a pre-rendered video, with live segments (such as trivia) overlayed on top. The first 30 minutes of the pre-show were set up in OBS and streamed live, allowing different screens to appear - such as the Tweets screen or the Minecraft building screen. Four minutes before the show began, the stream almost-seamlessly transitioned to a pre-recorded video - you can see the transition at 30:08 when the countdown text moves.
