Oh shots fire can ltt gn

Go to solution Solved by LinusTech,

We get along great with Steve. There's no bad blood here. Just a bit of friendly banter :)

Did Linus even challenge anyone to beat their score?

 

because from watching it over and over again there is no mention of an 'OC challenge'. I don't understand why GN feels the need to take part in this because it was never a thing in the first place.

Linus does not care

He is too busy making filler videos

Clickbait title, maybe trying to shine or gather a wider range of audiences

Probably trying to scramble that much more views, shitty way of doing so..

But it's a competition of nothing. I'm sure if Linus wanted to challenge GN in OC competition then he would have mentioned it the video, but he didn't so where did GN get the idea that there was going to be an OC challenge?

I liked it ^^ steve seems like a pretty cool dude and it's all just for fun. He said it's pretty much just plugging his OC livestream for next week.

Alex got roasted for being only great-ish lol ^^

I would love to see an LTT comeback. Honestly an OC wars series would be awesome where they have teams like in scrapyard wars. DOOO ITTTT LTT!!!

Clickbait has many forms, I'm truly sorry that you had to witness such horrors..

 

Seriously tho, they're probably trying to grow their numbers, or just trying to advertise their livestream. Obviously they didn't have to get Linus into this but that's not how clickbait works, unfortunately.

pretty sure linus and GN, Pauls hardware, bitwit and a few other guys get along well in the space, so alittle 'friendly' competition, call-out, or banter is always good for business.

There's too much luck involved in the silicon lottery for that to ever pan out well

Fanboys are the worst thing to happen to the tech community World. Chief among them are Apple fanboys.

Don't forget the obligatory arrows, circles, 'shadowed' objects, a completely unrelated model in the background, etc..

Oh I bet you do it's just the way GN titled and delivered this video that I didn't really like because from this it sounded like you challenged people to beat your score when in fact you mentioned nothing about an 'OC challenge' and were just happy with the score you got. You've got to agree that bringing up the hype for something that clearly doesn't exist and never did from the outset of the video release is a bad way to advertise a stream, it wouldn't be a problem if this is what you both wanted to do but it seems like GN has put you in a position in which you didn't to be in and now you have no option but to respond then GN has the audacity to tell his viewers that you came up with this 'challenge'. Sorry but that's just wrong...

No, we knew Steve was going to do this and he cleared calling us out in his title with me.

You've got to remember I'm coming from the viewers perspective, I (we the ordinary viewers) don't know what you have planned behind the scenes. If this was already planned that's fine I just would have liked the mention in the video and much more hype on Twitter, on the WAN Show ect.

Probably trying to scramble that much more views, shitty way of doing so..

If you've noticed LTT has had them on their channel before and references their findings.   LTT spectre build beat them on the boards so they felt challenged.   It's all in good fun.

This seems blown way out of proportion. Its nice to see such enthusiasm, but I am not sure why you are getting so worked up over it.
