Thanks again to Ridge for sponsoring this video! Check them out at https://lmg.gg/Ridge-Apr24-LTT and use the code LINUS to get 10% off and free shipping!

We are sick and tired of people asking Linus for a Free PC! That's why today we decided to create THE ULTIMATE PC SCAVENGER HUNT!!! Can you figure out the clues and find the PC?

I hope someone other than the annoying kid finds this.

Valer posted a comment on the video saying he found it. They put it in his home country. I’m happy for him! Though I can see how it can be annoying and Linus talked about it

Don’t encourage the YouTube beggars. Most annoying shit having to dig through a billion useless comments of people begging for free stuff on the internet to get to any remotely readable discussion.

Same stuff happens to anything related to moderately expensive content.

to be fair, it wasn't a YouTube beggar but instead an Instagram begger and they established pretty explicitly that it's never going to happen again.

I will say I think they probably could have done slightly fewer clues though probably since it is pretty obvious that it's was hidden in Bucharest. Not being Romanian I would need to do a bit more  google fu but like the mention of something that France has but is older and saying arch makes it obvious that one of the clues would be the Roman victory arch there.

Piecing together the clues as the video plays:

 

 

Spoiler

At first I thought "go south until you find yourself north" had something to do with the Canadian embassy that's vaguely south of the first big landmark, but nope that's a red herring.

This unfortunately is going to open the floodgates. Like, sure, if you're cool with doing this, fine. But you start doing this too often what is going to happen is people are just going to follow Linus around when they see him in public and harass him.

Gigabyte A520i is a great choice for  an AM4 mainboard.

 

 

To be fair a well designed scavenger hunt scattered across a couple of videos could be fun.

Yeah, like I know MrBeast CONSTANTLY gets asked in public if they can have "ten thousand dollars" as if he's a walking ATM just handing out money. I expect all that will happen in Linus's is more people in the comments will beg for "free PC because I need it for school!!".

Let em, he did specifically state in the video "Anyone who does this anymore can be shadow banned by the community team, and they've been encouraged to do so."

So, it may happen, but very quickly will stop happening, cuz they can't message or comment anymore.

He picked the least aggressive sentenced but still begging one out of already a crazy number that have already asked his social media.

Linus did say "Anyone that does this now will be message banned from said social media."

IMO he made this video to do one person but also made it so that he can say hey don't be crazy to our social media.

 

But yeah I agree this is stupid no one is going to listen linus, its probably the most dumb thing I have seen.

ROG rig reboot was a series that was good because contestants had to get creative to make a pitch to get to the point. not beg.

Bold to assume hes a very public person outside of the internet.

Not from Romania, but from a neighbouring country, your guess looks spot on!
You can even see the Bucharest Nord locker room's floor reflection in the LTT video (it has highly specific floor tile)

I knew this video was coming from watching the WAN show, but after seeing "I did a thing" reference it in a somewhat recent video, I thought this would be more of a direct reference to what bobby fingers does on his youtube channel. Was even disappointed after ctrl-Fing some youtube comments and seeing no mention.

 

It's a great youtube channel, I'd suggest watching at least one of his videos.

[FreddyWestside]

 I was so sure it was the Canadian Embassy

 

South until you're North... The Canadian Embassy is a few blocks south of the starting point, but I found the lockers one street over.

 

What a shame I'm not Romanian.

Fun video but seriously, you're giving the greenlight for more spam and begging. Doesn't seem well thought-out given the obvious secondary and tertiary negative effects. 

[tyrannicpuppy]

I thought it was entertaining. Love the videos where they intentionally and actively sass someone through the camera. Generally feels like the team are having fun doing it. Like all the digs at Dbrand being stupid during the Illuminati build. I'm sure it will increase the beggars, but if the team do start banning anyone who does so, it should lower the overall number fairly quickly. And we got a nice video out of the situation too.

Maybe I'm just mean but I was hoping LTT had removed all the internals and left a middle finger inside the case.

Merged to official video thread. Please note in future that if you make vague or non-existent references, your threads and posts will be treated as such. So either add enough context to give others idea what you are talking about, or post to thread where the background information is already stated.

This video just didn't sit right with me, rewarding someone for this behaviour.
