Scrapyard wars

[Agris]

Does anyone else feel bad for Kyle and Paul, or is it just me? When they got their trophies and then Linus found out that illegal drive and took their trophies? 

[rasesh]

Kyle & Paul won that by a long shot.

Not their fault their HDD was defective then another one and then another 1.

The HDD had nothing to do with their overall performance of their PC, they just needed the storage & they bought it too but it's not their fault that it was defective.

 

Linus tried to help them by giving them a HDD but even that was defective so it's not un-resonable to give them another one because if Linus had to use that same HDD they gave to Kyle and Paul they would've been in the exact same mess just for storage.

 

On top of all this Linus bought pretty much his entire system from a warehouse place from a guy who knew them even before they got there. 

Literally every single part.

Even the guy who they bought the GPU from put a note in the box even before they arrived to pick it up.

 

If Kyle & Paul wanted, Linus would've been kicked out of the competition due to that even before they started building their system. 

 

Even with Kyle's mistake of one of the benchmarks they STILL won so I have no idea what goes on in Linus's head to even think about stealing their win.

 

Honestly speaking, I'm probably not the only one that feels this way. 

 

At the end of the day it's just something they did for fun but if taken seriously Kyle and Paul won by a long shot.

Yeah its a rigged video, rigged game, not worth watching.

 

As soon as Linus seriously thought about chartering a $6000 plane I closed YT down and did something else.

OK Lets say its an act right. Its then definately scripted, to get the click baited-ness that he loves so much.

Even if its not planned ahead, written down, read off the telepromptor its still like his instinct is to create something (no not videos, but create drama, or no here you go, create news, create buzz that is his instinct), which we all know is not natural. Muscles (The guy who left/is leaving) was like that, much if not all of the crew is like that. Some stuff is more flowing with certain people, but with time and with repeated attempts, of course its going to flow and be camoflauged. Its still not natural.

 

Its got to be geniune, it has to be.

Yeah you see, and thats where the problem lays. The Linus' problem right there.

What is genuine and whats forced.  The click baited-ness to get more views or the stage costumes on camera or the faces he makes..................... or just being normal and genuine, be mature, be someones friend trying to explain tech in an informative and to the point kind of way.

 

He is ambiguous now, we dont know Linus' true self anymore.

yea in his videos h's normally himself but you can see in several cases, like that one he is forced to do stuff that makes him look like a dick (I hope it was for this reason and he isn't actually like that, otherwise if I met him, I'd meet him like a Glaswegian) in order to get views, cause otherwise his entire business would fail so I get that but it's a real shame to be honest, I hate click bait but I can stand it for the channel. I just wish the algorithm would be changed so click bait didn't work as well if at all

There is a lot to that complex man. And yes it is a shame for someone to have to stoop that low.

I am just thinking about his character and demeanor, its like not a laid back casual thing, but head forward into the wind.

Oh well maybe the kids love it, and perhaps those are his main audience, I really have no clue. For adults there is just so much CHEESINESS to it.
