I'd like to see what they could build for FREE. A Scrap Yard Scroungers budget if you like. Although they are not allowed to use any components lying around the office, they would be allowed to use connectors and cables from the office if needed.

 

Also they would still NOT be allowed to use any influence whatsoever of who they are....etc..

 

Can you build a console beater for FREE???

 

I lay down the gauntlet to Linus and Luke.

 

Have a great day everyone.

:-)

Kind Regards Always

I'm curious to see what they can do with $500 in their computer friendly area.

Did you watch the video? They even said at the end that they were gonna do another one, or something similar.

Not if it's going to be "episode" 2a-2z like the last one.

How would that make a difference in the viewing experience?

Because there is a week between episodes?

So 2a~2z is 23 weeks start to finsh, I don't know about you but holding my attention for nearly six months (especially at ten~twenty mins a week) is virtually impossible.

 

Opinion:-

 

Worse than the episodic nature of the videos is 'teaser' advertising such as Linus' (paraphrased)"you must watch this to se the big surprise" when there is no such thing.

I WANT A SECOND ONE.

Wishing leads to ambition and ambition leads to motivation and motivation leads to me building an illegal rocket ship in my backyard.

They already said they have big plans for the scrapyard wars format, which is awesome - it's what got me to register on forums. I mean it sucks for you guys, having to deal with me now...lesser of two evils?   :P

its probably not going to be one until one year from last episode. Its not like they can afford to spend $600 often. although the 3 part videos should of cover it.

They said they will do these (tv-like videos) lot more from now on. Have u not seen the Wan show ?

Linus said he was very surprised about how successful that video series was :)

I can't wait to see how they design the office once they finally move in.

They will not run any games with $150 besides pacman, minesweeper, solitare and Tetris

Don't forget 3D Pinball. 

Signature unda construction... in the meantime. Tell me more about yourself. I'm sure you've got an interesting story.
