    • @DavesVideosAndPlaylists
      @DavesVideosAndPlaylists 3 ปีที่แล้ว +43

      Possibility number three: visitors from the future are amongst us. The reason we don't realize they are here is because they've come to our point in the timeline equipped with the knowledge, clothing, etc. which they would need to keep themselves from being exposed for who and what they are. The few time-travelers who either make mistakes or intentionally give away their identities would likely be viewed as oddballs or lunatics, thus preserving the knowledge that time-travel exists.
      But hey, that's just a theory, a Time-Travel Theory! Thanks for reading.

      Let’s say present matpatt gave this video to past matpatt which caused past matpatt to try and recreate it leading to the first episode of game theory then later present matpat went to recreate the episode - this would be a bootstrap paradox.
      There is a beginning and an end to this loop.
      The loop the user created was a grandfather paradox because it proposed that matpat would give up TH-cam which would cause present matpat to NOT recreate the original episode and therefore he couldn’t send the footage to the past so therefore he would create the TH-cam channel. - this is a grandfather paradox
      There is no end and no beginning to this loop.

It's a matter of if metric is so much better than metric that we should undergo the massive infrastructural, cultural , and educational changes required to switch. Well, that and the last time we attempted to switch, it didn't work out and led to confusion but that was before the popularization of the internet so it's neither here nor there.

On top of that, we got to see Matpat mature as a person, we got to see him get married, have a kid, move states, get a cat, swap out his favorite drink for a lesser known one and we got to have him teach and entertain us for such a long time.

    It's been a long and wonderful ride, thank you so much Matt Pat for sticking with game theory.
    On the side note if you're going to continue remastering older game theories, I have a suggestion, how about remastering and updating into the 2020s on how every video game is linked together.
    I was a really big fan of that game theory when it came out back in the day. In fact I still watch it time to time because it's such a unique theory.

    Coolest part about you guys in my eyes: You can explain in a way that I actually understand! I had a test on my executive functioning a couple years ago and we found is was a 1/10. You guys can explain things that teachers can't and it just makes me feel like maybe, just maybe, there's hope for me. ♡ It's a miracle when something makes sense to me, so when I'm having a down day about my functioning, I come here to Game Theory, Film Theory and Food Theory to help me keep a goal on my sight! To prove to my teachers that no, my feelings are not in the way of my learning. I am a capable human being who can conquer her depression, anxiety and even autism, and you guys help me remind myself of that. So thank you for teaching me what literally no one else can!

      @notinorder9630 3 ปีที่แล้ว +16

      Not sure when the stock photos were added, but matt on a podium is actually an edit of a picture he took with Ronnie (rip) and gaijin gumba ii believe, when he used to include little interactive annotations at the end of the video to analyze his viewers with voting cards that ultimately just led back to the channel but could be used as a primative voting system. The voting at the time was 'who has the best "thinker" face?' or something along those lines. Can't remember the video, but yeah, it was a cute picture from a convention, ii think, where all the members of team theorist at the time met up.
