Great video! Fun side note, I had a 61 character run a few days before my record, but Paul starved in the second I tried to press "yes" to confirm my final password...
This video taught me that Paul% and Apaulcalypse% exist, and I am grateful to know that some speedrunners are killing Paul as quickly as possible repeatedly and in exciting ways.
@@speedstyle. that one actually doesn't work since there is no leap year but in the discord server there are already like three humanly possible 53 character passwords (though still insanely hard)
I had the same thought!! Where it didn’t really matter if you could save a few frames here and there, until you had saved an entire frame rule, you weren’t gonna get a faster time.
just watching around 9 minutes, you can train yourself to recognize a colour that ends in beac fairly easily since hex codes are just hexadecimal RGB codes, having GB be tied to beac leaves only red to be scaled, and that means your colour scales from a teal colour to a peach colour, so you wouldn't have to check every single hex colour, just ones that look fairly close, cutting down on the time it takes by (maybe?) a lot
minimum characters runs aren't timed (only the password length is taken into account in the leaderboards) so it being faster isn't super important (though it'll probably make it easier to deal with Paul, lol) pretty cool tip nonetheless
People are just not committed enough to optimizing for length. Why has nobody thought of the obvious strategy of founding a new country, giving it a very short name and then having Google streetview cars cover it so it can be added to GeoGuessr?
2:45 I love that the game effectively has a "super mario framerule" mechanic, where it doesn't matter how good you are, records are only countable at discrete intervals
You know, I'd love to see a theoretical run for this. Something that takes RNG completely out of the equation, where the chess puzzle is exactly what's needed, the hex code is the one you want, there's no need to feed Paul... it's kinda like framerules in SMB1, what's the lowest framerule you could reach ?
If that's the only possible 53 charachter run, you could try just resetting untill you get everything but the hex and captcha, then reroll those. Probably hugely time consuming, and also entirely removing skill from the runs, but it might be the best strategy.
@@JJ5_dragon_heart could use a robot mechanically workin hand that can press a designated key that would enter a decided ammount of caterpillar in the gap of a set time period all while u can reroll whenever possible to get the perfect combination...

it would be crazy if someone travelled back in time to 1939 to convince the prime minister at the time to not change Siam's name to Thailand just so they can optimise their speedrun of a quirky password game 84 years later.
Fun fact: Before entering the game page, there is "Rule 0: The password must match. Congratulations! You have sucessfully chosen a password in 0 characters." so technically you beat the game before playing it EDIT: 600 likes in 19 hours my comment is now the 2nd most liked comment lmao
No, blocking Google Maps wouldn't work. That's because The Password Game does not use Google Maps to know which country the places are in. It has a list of Google Maps URLs with their countries. All blocking Google Maps would do is not let the user see the place.
@@sophialaird6388 No. The game knows the countries because they are stored on Neal's website. So it's Neal's website you'd have to block. And then you wouldn't be able to play the game.
If the game has a locally stored list of urls with their respective answers then there's not much that could be done (except straight up hacking into the server lmao)
@@rubenbohorquez5673 Maybe you could play the bugged version of the game from 15:11. But how would you play old versions of the game? I've tried The Wayback Machine, but the TH-cam rule didn't work, so I couldn't get any further. I've noticed that when Neal updates the game, he changes the URL of the main JavaScript. Then the old main JavaScript URL is just some HTML, I think. Given the popularity of the game, there's a good chance the main JavaScript files are getting archived on The Wayback Machine. Currently, the main JavaScript is named d04557c.js. As always, it's in the _nuxt folder on Neal's website. It's not in a directory specifically for the Password Game. It took me a few minutes to find the current main JavaScript. And in the mean time, I think I found the main JavaScript for one of Neal's other projects.
3:55 lots of people do that when they first get to the rule where Paul hatches When my brother played he got to that rule and overfed Paul. When I first played I got to the rule where I have to feed Paul and then feed him one 🐛 and then he told me to keep feeding him but I refused to so I let Paul starve.
I wish you had talked about theoretical lower bound on password length what's the highest number that we definitely know won't be reached with these records
He replied to another comment with the shortest one we've managed to make (47 characters) that would theoretically work, but it'd require a very specific TH-cam url which is highly unlikely to happen
It is a real element. Although it cannot occur in nature, and instead was synthesized artificially as the 111th element on the periodic table. It is named after Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen, a mechanical engineer and physicist who discovered x-rays.
Omg- I was not expecting to see my record at 2:50, jumpscare fr. Also fun fact, that run was actually my second ever attempt at a minimum characters speedrun
What would a theoretically perfect run look like with all of the luck elements? How many characters can it physically get? How lucky would that run be?
I saw a reply saying the "theoretical lowest" is 37 characters because the emojis take up 5 characters, the hex takes up 7 characters, and the URL takes up 20 characters totaling to 32 characters that can't overlap and are required however the password would need to be 37 characters because of the prime number. But from what I've seen I think the lowest you can get is 47 characters, the password would look something like this however we'd need a URL that exactly has "VIIraNe7pepS" in it, which is 1 in 73 quintillion so I doubt we'll ever get that. But the password would probably look like this (credit to MarkoFogati) math-cam.com/video/VIIraNe7pepS/w-d-xo.htmliamloVed#4cdcb3:47🐔🐛🏋🏋🏋🌑

Also you save the same character by swaping pepsi and iamloved for the same start; so 2 possible urls to work with. Also adding another possibility by using the Ne7 completion you just showed, freeing up a character. I doubt iamloved is allowed to be interrupted but if it is then #ed19** (* being any number) and #ed**19 both being valid for hex at least, haven't checked if it's part of the remaining list though. Also 1948 if allowed out of order should count as leap year.
ive never played or heard of this game before, but you explained it so well for me to understand😭 seems fun, i dont know how speedrunners have enough patience for this though
i wonder if this game has been TAS'd for shortest password since checking the colour of a pixel and refreshing until a __beac is found is fairly trivial to automate I'm more curious about the theoretical minimum than anything else honestly
For the hex value, if it ends in 0, cant you have it at the end of the password and remove the 0? So would a hex value of #000000 be possible? And you could just write; #
Also next one up if you need captcha because you don't get lucky that it's contained in the phrase is 9:47 and Ne5+ to alter the numbers, dropping the 9 lower if you end up with a number 8 or below.

Always wondered, how far the game really goes... I always ended up at the game over, because I was too stupid to properly feed Paul. Time at work well spent
as someone who knows how hex colors work and how extremly simple it is, the idea that someone would reroll random colors until they find the hex they want just sounds ridiculous and wasting time hex has 6 characters, each characters are between 1 and F, its super simple to find the numbers u want also, they are in 3 groups of 2 characters and are the hex value of red green and blue which is how u can easily guess a color while looking at a hex value edit : I just discovered that it has to be a verry specific color, in which I would probably program something in python to find it by fast brute forcing
@@oringofekzy2019 Yeah, but to check the new color manually you need to click reroll, use whatever color picker tool you choose to see the number, *internalize that information in your slow ass human brain*, decide if that is a acceptable color, and if not repeat. There are ways you could make this process more optimal but the final conclusion would eventually be a bot to automate the entire process so you can check colors as fast as the website is able to reload them, without needing to have the human brain keep up.
@@Ender_Onryo its what I was thinking about by brute forcing, having a script that check the collor and if it doesnt contain the characters I want, click regenerate, and then let it work until it finds the perfect color u want (am sure it could be like 15 lines of python code if I tryied but meh, too lazy)
the fact that people made lists of all the youtube urls that had the country names, colors, captchas, etc... is absolutely bonkers. speedrunners are a different breed
Not having to include the Wordle by putting a future date feels like cheating to me. Because Wordle is a fixed (and repeating!) wordlist that's visibly included in the website code, you can easily (and fairly) optimize by searching for a 5-letter-word that fits (e.g. "loved" is NOT on the list, while "lover" is! I feel as if the "I am loved" is deliberately chosen for that).
Neat video, but atomic number is not a unit, so pluralizing it is very painful to every chemistry nerd out there (it is a property of elements, but its unit is just the number of protons in an element)
Haven't watched the video yet. I didn't know what "the Password Game" was, so I gave it a try. Got to rule 11, and I don't know what Wordle is... so I guess I will go do that instead?
You're wrong about the catipillar optimization around 4:00 because of the rule of including a prime number, length of password. 73 was in the text. couldn't be less.
That is correct, although keep in mind at 4:25 another character could've been saved by optimizing the last hex character and first wordle character, then changing 73:50 to 71:52

53 character run was just achieved 13 days ago 💀
Thats crazy, I didn't think it was possible to get under triple digits let alone under 60
This is such a great quality video, I rarely take the time to comment but I enjoyed every second of this one, nice work!
20:16 lmao the character count is measured in milliseconds
This was a pretty fun video! I’m glad I didn’t just leave it to rot in my Watch Later tab~
I hope to see more like this. *subscribes*
as someone who knows how hex colors work and how extremly simple it is, the idea that someone would reroll random colors until they find the hex they want just sounds ridiculous and wasting time
hex has 6 characters, each characters are between 1 and F, its super simple to find the numbers u want
also, they are in 3 groups of 2 characters and are the hex value of red green and blue which is how u can easily guess a color while looking at a hex value
edit : I just discovered that it has to be a verry specific color, in which I would probably program something in python to find it by fast brute forcing
Brute forcing? You can easily get the hex of whatever ur hovering on
@@oringofekzy2019 Yeah, but to check the new color manually you need to click reroll, use whatever color picker tool you choose to see the number, *internalize that information in your slow ass human brain*, decide if that is a acceptable color, and if not repeat.
There are ways you could make this process more optimal but the final conclusion would eventually be a bot to automate the entire process so you can check colors as fast as the website is able to reload them, without needing to have the human brain keep up.
@@Ender_Onryo its what I was thinking about by brute forcing, having a script that check the collor and if it doesnt contain the characters I want, click regenerate, and then let it work until it finds the perfect color u want (am sure it could be like 15 lines of python code if I tryied but meh, too lazy)
the fact that people made lists of all the youtube urls that had the country names, colors, captchas, etc... is absolutely bonkers. speedrunners are a different breed
Dang bro, you got 1 million views. Good job!
No, your video in fact was only recommended because youtube had a password game video that I clicked in curiosity.
Let’s go for max characters now.
imagine putting one of these passwords as your real password somewhere
Nice video, you did a good job covering this, earned a sub
I love these kinds of videos, and this one imo was really well made, I even thought you'd be making these for years, really, keep up
Did i really just watch a 20 minute video on the password game and enjoy every second?
Your documentary videos are amazing. And this video was no exception.
Not having to include the Wordle by putting a future date feels like cheating to me. Because Wordle is a fixed (and repeating!) wordlist that's visibly included in the website code, you can easily (and fairly) optimize by searching for a 5-letter-word that fits (e.g. "loved" is NOT on the list, while "lover" is! I feel as if the "I am loved" is deliberately chosen for that).
The kindness here is so inspiring. Blessings to everyone!
Congrats on your first step becoming summoning salt❤
I remember when this was just a Twitter teaser asking for suggestions. It has grown so much 💗
Neat video, but atomic number is not a unit, so pluralizing it is very painful to every chemistry nerd out there (it is a property of elements, but its unit is just the number of protons in an element)
The only time I heard “Iran is the best country you can get”
Its been a while since we saw eachother Noah. Glad to see you got popular
As an Iranian person, I love this game
(Like imagine your country being the best opinion in a game)
Next theyre going to try to figure out how to DDOS geoguessr so it goes down again lmfao
Speedrunners' willingness to effectively throw dice till they all stick to the wall as 5 nat 20s in a row is frightening
This is what someone sitting behind a desk at apple goes through when you click “chose strong password” ☠️
My boy hjdoogan appearing in the video. Absolute legend
Nice thumbnail kokodak looks like a receptionist 🐓 🤙
The fact bro went from rule 33 to rule 35 to avoid saying… T H A T is great to me
Oh my Lordy lord I got a heart
wait this isnt a channel with hundreds of thousends of subs? damn you are underrated
First video I saw from this channel and the production was awesome
i beat the game in around 1000 characters because i made a barrier of zeroes to protect paul.
never knew I needed NileRed to explain a sub community of speedrunnjng on optimizing the shortest password but here I am
Imma be real with you, chief. I didn’t know you could beat the Password Game at all.
That’s crazy how they just decided not to include the Wordle anymore. I feel it.
Haven't watched the video yet. I didn't know what "the Password Game" was, so I gave it a try. Got to rule 11, and I don't know what Wordle is... so I guess I will go do that instead?
This is like speed running, minus the timer, plus the word count.
this needs to have more views tbh
08:20 I'm always so happy when people use songs from Jet Set Radio 😭💖
You're wrong about the catipillar optimization around 4:00 because of the rule of including a prime number, length of password. 73 was in the text. couldn't be less.
That is correct, although keep in mind at 4:25 another character could've been saved by optimizing the last hex character and first wordle character, then changing 73:50 to 71:52
The prime number rule is the most exciting one because most people would just find 1 character to optimize
Can’t wait for summoning salts video on this topic
Id literally lose my head if i decided to speedrun this game
