@@JaseyRaeRadio At the office, it’s a PS/2 trackball mouse. On the road, Arin got Dan a sweet IBM Thinkpad with that little red nipple thing. It’s a life hack for FPS games.
Game: Slowly and clearly shows that half the scoring is by stroke total and half is from time to complete the hole Our cunning heroes Dan and Arin: "I just cannot figure out this darn scoring"
I think it's cause they think there would be more difference, like if someone does really bad, but no matter how slow you go or how many shots you take, you're getting no more than 4 points that hole
@@AtomicFlounder42 yeah, they are looking for more traditional score= +/- par combined with needing to keep the banter entertaining for the video and its why they don't notice. Whats the bet they notice the second they stopped recording though
@@spawnofkermit2687 You're right, but even if you ignore how scores are given out, it still ends up being 2s and 4s (and 3 for tie)...so either way Dan couldn't have caught up to Arin when he said "no one knows how the scoring system works".
I totally thought this was gonna be a Wheel of Fortune video just from seeing "Dan suffers" 😂 I've watched enough of that series to know that, and although I'm barely a minute into the video, what we got is just as good as Wheel of Fortune lol
I will never stop being frustrated when they don't read the information on screen. The points are very simple, it's based on your placing (in this case, first or second) in shots and your time. When Dan got three points, both got one point for being first (tied on shots), Arin got one point for finishing first and Dan got two points for coming second. Four point somes from being second in both shots and time and two points comes from being first on both.
Sweating Bullets was my first Megadeth song that made me fall in love with the band. Hearing "Being epiiiiic~!" had me absolutely rolling, thanks Grumps 😂
It kinda hurts to feel dan so hard on himself. I hope he knows the vast majority of people support him. They realize that he's only spent like 40 minutes playing and they blew through 36 holes. And he did not rage quit as most people probably would have already. And he also pulled off some impressive shots.
Cool coincidence; Dan says, "let's go to therapy!" as I'm actually watching this video before therapy in 2 minutes. Edition: about two and a half hours later; I'm watching a horror game playthrough and there's suddenly pizza and the player points it out as I'm taking a bite of pizza. Thank you, universe. Now stop.

36:00 I mean... yes and no, I think gold would still be more valuable with how much more useful it is than silver, being the most conductive between it, silver, and copper, not even mentioning Platinum the rarest and most valuable metal... in fact why isn't that a medal rank?
I said this last time they tried to phase them out, and I’ll say it again. I like knowing what game they’re playing when I click on the video, as well as seeing the grump heads so I know it’s Game Grumps, yeah they’re putting Dan and Arin’s faces in most of them that don’t have the grump heads, but even with that, my brain doesn’t immediately think Game Grumps. If anything it makes me think it’s a video on The Grumps channel, like an old Really Good Content or something (speaking of which, bring that shit back yo) idk, I get rebranding your videos, but if anything, trying to do that with your thumbnails feels more like debranding at least with way you’re trying to do it currently. It also just feels like a rehash of what everyone else is doing, vague titles and thumbnails in an attempt to get more people to click on it. It just seems kinda clickbaity. I love you guys, but don’t lose what makes you stand out.❤
It's times like right now knowing that you don't read or comment on much of the comments makes me sad but I just wanted to say that right now I had a rough morning with my family and coming here to you guys is often what I do when I'm feeling very stressed about the world. Although you guys aren't perfect far from it, you are my comfort Channel and I'm happy for that. Thank you.
Being reminded that Dan is left handed, it seems like that explains a large portion of his struggle to control a lot of these games. I bet even when he uses the mouse with his left hand it's still a right-handed mouse.
... I mean... if you want me to I be mean to make it better Dan, but I only planned on making comments with nice thoughts. It does look challenging, you'd probably have to be a physicist like a certain ninja to get super good scores, or someone good geometry. Possibly at calculating and patience, think of it from a chess angle, which directions gives you the best advantage. Sky Temple looks no joke.
I reaaaaaally fucking hate this TH-cam trend of just- gaming channels not putting the gave in the title OR EVEN THE THUMBNAIL like Jesus christ, is slapping "golf" at the end of that really so fucking hard?
Gosh I wished I watched this sooner, editing is great and gameplay was fun. To bad I did not know what they were playing and thought this was a compilation based off the thumbnail
Looks like the points are based on your place in both time and strokes. So if you are first in strokes and fastest, your first in each and get 1 point in each. If you were second in strokes and second in time, you get 2 points for each. And if you were 1st in time but 2nd in strokes, you get 1 point for time and 2 points for strokes. :3
I love the timing of the game displaying how the score system works as Dan is saying "I don't completely understand how this scoring system works." To be fair to them tho, the prompt was off to the side and not where their eyes would be focusing.
Ok, in case nobody else figured it out: the scoring is based on two criteria. Strokes and time to get to the hole. Then the number of the placement you get for each of them is added into your total. If they get the same number of strokes they tie. One of them would get 1st in strokes and 1st in time, therefore 2 points, and the other would get 1st in strokes and 2nd in time, therefore 3 points.
So Dan uses computers so little that he doesn't even know if he prefers right or left handed mouse? That's surprising. I know left handed people do it either way, depending on how they grew up, but normally they at least know!
I really genuinely wonder how much of his incompetence is due to everything being set up for right handed people. Like I bet even the games they play on control pads never get switched to the non default setups.
I feel for Dan, I just wanna see him having some fun! Maybe the guys can make some custom characters and play some old Tiger Woods 03ish golf, that might be fun to see! :D
Re: 36:00, there's a small, card game called "*Why First?*" centered around this exact concept. Each player has pawn on the 0 space of the board and a hand of number cards that can range from -4 to +5 (but no zeroes). You play cards from your hand to move player pieces forward or backwards on the track. At the end of a round (once all cards are played) whichever player is SECOND furthest down the track earns points and at the end the end of 5 rounds, whichever player has the SECOND most points wins.
I love how they constantly mention how they don't understand the scoring system, when after every hole there is a thing that pops up and shows exactly how the scoring works. They score who gets to the hole first, and who has the fewest strokes. And the score is just the sum of where you placed in those two comparisons.
Dan's videogame competence extends almost exclusively to 2D games that have a control scheme no more complicated than the first 3 Mario games. Anything else turns him in to your grandfather trying to play the Halos.
How the point system works: So basically two contests are going on during a hole. Those being strokes and time. If you use the least strokes you receive 1 point, if you are second in strokes you get 2 points, and so on. If you are the first person to get it in the hole, you receive 1 point. If you are the second person to get it in the hole, you receive 2 points, and so on. The scores of both those contest are totaled and the person with the least points wins. It is incredibly convoluted
Arin has a blast causing Dan's suffering, but his turn will come next Chess Day....
Or monopoly
:D my thoughts exactly
You may mock my run in May
But you’ll soon sour, come Chess Day
Maybe Arin will use the Hans Niemann method of cheating when they play chess
*lose a turn*
Starting to think there might be something wrong with me if I instantly click a video saying Dan is suffering
Funniest. Comment. Ever.
Also same 😅😂
I can't tell if it means a horror game or something that screws him over as much as Wheel of Fortune.
Right there with you

"My brain just doesn't operate correctly in this format" -Dan struggling to adjust to non turn based golf

Dan handles stressful gameplay like fire handles water: poorly, but with occasional great results.
The title made me think this was going to be a compilation of Dan's suffering. Turns out this was something even better: F R E S H suffering.
Arin is usually the cause of Dan's suffering, however he is also the cause of his own suffering too. So Dan never has to get revenge, he only has to wait. Lol. Love em both though.
Why was this shit profound??
Just imagining Dan swapping right to left, “lemme try my dominant hand so I can lose ambidextrously”

but also pleasure
@@A2Z83 who knows what Dan considers pleasure
That is how the show functions
It was in his contract
And vice-versa.

My mind immediately went to Megadeth when he said that. Took me ages to remember which song though! 😂
@@TheCasualTheorist yeah, you can tell it's sweating bullets cause a bit earlier Arin starts singing the first verse, "Hello me, meet the real me"
