I thought this was entertaining as hell. That IS the point and it totally was. It's the screw ups that are the most entertaining part. That's the part which has the ring of truth to it.  Because most of your viewers would be screwing it up as well. 

 

I love it when my Vessel subscription payment feels worth it. Today it did.

 

"Mission Accomplished" 

MOAR!

Fantastic video. But by the sound of the YouTube comments people really missed the point?? I feel like the larger LTT grows the more it attracts the mounds of idiots that roam the Internet... sigh... 

 

But it again great video, the ghetto-ness really sells this series.  

I wouldn't mind seeing a "future" theme rematch. Also seeing as this isn't as technical as srapyard wars, this could be a good series to involve other LTT members in? 

Bleigh!  Ever hear of AC series?

Is there going to be a contest, where we could actually win one of the builds?
 

That would be super awesome : D

I'm still not sold on the guest judges because they don't present as well but that sort of stuff comes with practice so it's not a deal breaker for me liking the video. That being said it was a good video and I thought it was funny.

@LinusTech Flying the American Flag upside down is used as a sign of distress. I'd say that fits perfectly!

 

Edit: John got me covered!

F#$k timezone programming. Use UTC! (See XKCD #1883)

This may sound stupid but at this point why is it still a PC? This could easily have just been Linus Tech Tips Arts and Crafts Competition and made dioramas.
