"gobots came before transformers, hydrox came before oreos... are we... gobots?" - the ceo of skype, apparently
That's how I knew the answer. XD
literally what I immediately though of when I watched this episode
I don't feel like Bill Gates has that much of an opinion on it.
@@JonesCrimson search CEO of Skype on TH-cam.
Also cryogenics must've had big progress in recent years. I mean Gates resigned from CEO of MS position ages ago.
Only reason I know the answer.
I STAND BY THE NEED FOR VSM IN D&D!!! lol Also, thank you so much for having me
That was an awesomely nerdy argument! ( And you're right. :) )
Such good RP opportunities for describing how you're using your spell components too (Liam O'Brien is such a model for this). Also, I've DMed a game where one of the players knew what spell was being cast because he recognized the spell component. It's really worth it to pay attention to those details!
It's hard being better at rules than people. Unless you're playing Um, Actually, of course.
Respect 🤜🤛
Trish I have missed you since SF! I hope you can come on this show more!
I love how the guests were ordered as lawful, neutral chaotic 🤣
Also, love how supportive they were of each other while staying in the competition. Best cast so far.
do you think it was on purpose or some sort of nerd subconscious thing ?
@@bumpyshorts Not to be sexist, but I think in part it's a girl-power thing. It's rare that they have an all female guest cast, but the last one or two I recall went so smoothly. The cast is usually all pretty chill though. Understandable they don't want anyone taking it too seriously.
@@SocialistStrike I can’t remember if the musical theater one was all female but my god they went for the jugular
@@SocialistStrikebuddy, you don't understand what being sexist means.
@@BichaeldeAngelothat one was not all-female, it featured Grant Anthony O'Brien in the only version of Um, Actually he will ever appear on
RE: all along the watchtower - It's a heavily covered song and Bob Dylan was once asked why so many people cover that song and his response was something along the lines of "it's a great song that exists in the ether of the universe which other artists are in tune to" or something like that. The writers of BSG thought that was an interesting concept and so wove it into the their universe as a secret universal rhythm. So UM ACTUALLY, the song was not written thousands of years in the future, it always existed and was simply rediscovered in our 20th century.
And Jimi Hendrix did one, if not, the best covers of the songs
That’s actually super rad.
"All of this has happened before. And all of this will happen again." is basically the motto of the show.
Bit late to the party, but in the original BSG they arrive at Earth when the song was released.
They realise the Human colony of Earth couldn't help them fight the cylons and decide to depart before the cylons could defeat humanity once and for all. The song plays as they depart.
The remake plays homage to that.
@@smalltime0 Is that before or after BSG 1980?
I love how fast Trapp gets corrected when Trish said the power up was Donkey Kong and he said it wasn't. Dude in the back was like "It actually was" and Trapp had to be like ok ok fine lmao
I feel like the original intention was for the players to name the power up, not just the game. So technically, the sound was not made by the Donkey Kong character, and the hammer is not used by Donkey Kong either.
But between the fact checking correction and the players all guessing video game titles, Trapp just went with it. He still specifies the name of *most power ups for the rest of the question, just so it was clear there was a specific answer and not just "Pokemon".
Or at least, that's like, my opinion, man. 😉
@@Hyrulistic usually they do you can awnser the power up/whatever they're guessing OR the shit it's from /gen
That D&D nerd rant is 100% my friends
Lol
I require d&d friends. I’m unfortunately the biggest nerd in my friend group. How did this happen? Damn jocks.
@@zeroxeroFX You say "I'm the biggest nerd", I hear "I'm the DM"
@@zach_attakk you make an excellent point here
Um actually, the Tiny Being's Ring does wrongly say that it regenerates health, but this is due to a mistranslation not as a deliberate lie.
Still seems like it could have been fixed, but that's true. I still love Dark Souls.
Doesn’t tiny being’s ring only give a slight increase to hp
@@gifdar obviously not because that was what the question had originally insinuated
@@gifdar It does give a slight increase in HP, sometimes enough to have 1 hp instead of being 1 shot so I guess that's nice. Especially because it's a % and not a raw number, so it gets better the more you level up.
@@Puffcroc The thing wrong with the original question is that it says it regenerates health, it doesn't. It DOES increase HP slightly.
Also... um, actually, the ultimate question is not "What do you get when you multiply six by nine?"; that's the question that Arthur Dent generated with random scrabble tiles. But the data was corrupted when the Golgafrinchans (Arthur's true ancestors) replaced the native life on Earth that was meant to be part of the program, so the results were heavily distorted. In fact, if the Ultimate Question and Ultimate Answer are ever known at the same time, the entire universe would "wink out of existence and be replaced with something even more inexplicable", so that was definitely not the right question.
Um Actually - that would be 6 x 7, not 9 :)
@@lklmmedia4715 it is 6x9 in the book though, it being wrong is part of the joke.
Came to the comments to see if this is being discussed!
Also, "How many roads must a man walk down" was one of the ones the mice came up with to try to sell to chat shows, I think.
Either way, the true Answer was never found. Unless it *was* found and the universe was replaced by something more inexplicable. Thus sayeth, Prak the Truthful.
Except, with a computer that smart, wouldn't it have taken the Golgafrinchians into account when they landed?
It has been years since I read the books, but doesn't Marvin eventually know both the question and answer, but doesn't tell anyone?
The amount of everyone supporting each other and just being super wholesome/positive is amazing.
If they watched Arin's many meltdowns on Game Grumps while fishing, they'd all have known that Big the Cat actually has 0 talents, skills or specialities
To be fair, really the only thing that's messed up about Big's mini-game in Adventure is the requirement for the harder versions of the levels in that you have to get a fish that weighs a certain amount, not catch a collect weight number before catching Froggy. And while I haven't played in a bit to check, I'm pretty sure they have easy access to a tutorial page/option on how to use each character in the character select, I THINK. Although the orientation controls CAN be weird.
But I wouldn't say he doesn't have talent, skills, or specialties. He's a good fisher, incredibly strong, and is a good friend. Plus, (joke taken from Golden Bolt) he's sort of the proxy for "your dad." The parent that stares back at you with a blank stare not fully understanding what you're going on about and has a weird hobby you might not jive with.
Plus honestly I have a hard time believing Arin's reasonings anymore since a lot of the time he not only attempts to force glitches to happen so he has content, but he also only plays Sonic games for the channel so he has an excuse to force himself to get angry, which he has admitted (at one point getting so out of hand he angrily tosses a Wiimote that bounces around and breaks a ceiling light, then basically calls anyone that likes the game a dumb@$$). Along with that, the only thing he actually likes about Sonic is his design, everything else he actively $#!+'s on for giggles, which he has also admitted to. There is an entire 6 hour "How Not to Play" for their playthrough of Team Sonic in Sonic Heroes if you wanna see.
Plus, despite getting a special thanks in the credits, didn't even see fit to finish the Sonic Mania playthrough for the channel because he couldn't find anything to argue/complain about to justify getting angry because it's that solid of a Sonic game (which I'm convinced he was either expecting to be terrible, or just playing so as to stay relevant to the algorithm at the time), the most being the spider bumper boss at the end of their (currently) final episode (10), which is halfway into the game.
@@toonman5099 There is a tutorial page for every character, yes, but Big's tutorial still did a terrible job of teaching players how to actually play the games. The instructions were vague and left out crucial information.
More importantly: it's a game starring, named after, and centered around the self-proclaimed "fastest thing alive". That's what the players see when they research the game and that's what they want if they buy the game. Knowing that, somebody at SEGA thought that a series of slow-paced, tedious minigames was a good addition to the mix, enough so that they made its completion a requirement to unlock the final boss fight between Super Sonic and Perfect Chaos. It's like if a game of Doom was interrupted by a two-hour-long turn-by-turn resource management side plot just before the final boss. Developers are entertainers; they need to know their audiences. SEGA forgot theirs when they made Big's stages.
Um, actually Sonic mania isnt the only sonic game they havnt finished. They also didnt finish sonic adventure 2 which is riddled with infuriating bugs, mechanics, and levels. Even you would admit that its a great candidate for arins freak outs. As much as i love sonic adventure 2, it is not a game designed for controllers.
@@toonman5099 "since a lot of the time he not only attempts to force glitches to happen so he has content" people keep saying this for absolutely no reason, you just want to sound smart
It's also just untrue that he only likes Sonic's design. He's talked about being a Sonic fan many times and the many things he likes about the series, despite how poorly so many of the games play
@@QuikVidGuy I mean, HugotheIcyFire showcases the forced glitched example very well. One of the examples is in Adventure 1 where Arin goes through the map on the path before one of the loops in the first level where, the only way to perform the glitch he found, is to hold the control stick back which, why would you on that section ever? The only time I can think of that happening is if someone thinks they missed something and try to go back.
Also, for someone claiming to be a fan about Sonic, he sure does talk shit about the series constantly yet claims "hey, it's all just a joke guys." Yeah, the guy who BROKE A CEILING LIGHT because he has the urge to play games he thinks can get a rise out of himself seemingly purely out of boredom just so he can have an outlet basically saying "I play Sonic games to make myself angry."
Yeah, he sure does sound like a big fan of Sonic. He totally isn't trying to ride and recapture the high of '06 or Rise of Lyric because "haha, look at the funny glitchy game and Sonic games tend to never be quality, look how angry and 'Grump' it makes me." He also totally isn't just trying to cover the excuse that he's just bad at games either by nature or purely for making content.
After all, there have been a ton of comments over the years going "how the heck does Arin find ALL the glitches in the game when I've never come across ONE?" I mean for his Sonic Heroes playthrough, he chose the worst buggiest version. Same for Colors when the Ultimate port came out. Like I said, he's at one point said he'd never play Colors for the channel because he thought it was a genuinely fun game, but the moment Colors Ultimate came out (both being reported to have a ton of glitches and during a time when Colors has aged like milk and practically everyone regrets Colors's story), he salivated at the idea of playing it for the channel.
Trapp you 100% deserve all the accolades for being an awesome host and the team behind the show deserves a shoutout as well.
Hate tech, love Grant💀
Uhm, actually: The Goa'uld do not burrow into the hosts brain. They enter through the mouth or the neck and wrap themselfs around the spinal chord.
Also, in the show they are always referred to as symbiotes, not parasites. Even though they are by all means parasites.
Well they are not entirely parasites. Parasites in nature exclusively do harm on the host but Goa'uld increase certain physical atributes of the host like aging that's why Teal'c or Bra'tac are older than they seem. Tok'ra are also a good example of why calling them parasites isn't entirely correct.
@@GRIMHOOD99 Funny story: Bra'tac was expecting they'd be alot of makeup etc to play a 110+ year old. When he was told he looked good for the part already he was a little insulted.
@@smith22041 now that's a funny trivia
The wrap around the spinal cord with head around the brain stem, and send tendrils into the brain for access. They don't burrow their entire body in, but they are burrowing into brain directly with part of their body.
@@GRIMHOOD99 Symbiosis is by definition mutually beneficial to both parties. There is nothing mutually beneficial when one party takes over the body of the other. Who cares if your diabetes is cured when you have to spent the rest of your existance controlled by an extremely narcisistic worm?
And I don't want anyone to utter the word "Tok'ra", please! The Tok'ra suck and it's still not mutually beneficial. The symbiote can control the host but not the other way around. And ironically, their relationship with Stargate Command was indeed very parasitic in nature.
I love that there is no time constraints so they can include as much banter as they want.
Yeah, Temple of Doom gave me nightmares for years. My mom used to chase me around the house yelling “Kali-ma”, they let me watch it at 9.
Very not cash money of you, mom.
Um, actually, the ultimate question isn't ACTUALLY revealed, though Ford Prefect speculates that Arthur must have a distorted version of the question in his subconscious since a spaceship full of idiots crashed on the planet Earth a few million years before it could compute the question and their interference messed it up. Some fans also pointed out that 6 x 9 is 42 in base 13 rather than base 10, thinking that making the base 13 might have been part of the joke, but Douglass Adams pointed out that is just a coincidence and he doesn't make jokes in base 13.
My exact thought. It's very much stated that if the question and answer were to be revealed the universe would cease to exist or something similar to that nature, IIRC
@@nikoboivin not cease to exist, just become even stranger.
@@ashtonhoward5582 depending on the line you're thinking of, it's "become something far more complicated. Some people say it already has."
@@primoridalspatula663 Yeah, like an eternal quest for the question and answer that just keeps getting harder each time it is solved.
Another gag about it is when Arthur makes Scrabble and randomly draws out letters and spells out the whole 6 x 9 thing.
I said yay when I saw Trisha! And then she told me to pat myself on the back. But the highlight is the d&d rules fight for sure!
I get so happy whenever I see Sourcefed hosts anywhere. It warms my heart!
6:45
well that's what a Component Pouch is for. You only have to track the EXPENSIVE materials
Um, actually, the proper question is never discovered. 6x9 is the answer that is output by Arthur, but that's because the process got bungled by a crashing spaceship full of telephone sanitary technicians etc. And "how many roads..." is the answer the mice marketing team decides to run with in order to salvage the mess that's been made of their project
Or _did_ it get bungled? The computer that designed Earth was very smart. Surely it accounted for the Golgafrinchians.
How have we not had dark souls until now? It’s like very nerd / lore heavy and a 3 game series (or five of you count those)
Big GoBots fan myself, that movie "GoBots: Battle of the Rock Lords" was one the go too tapes to throw in the VCR when I was little. While I did enjoy Transformers as well, was always a bit disappointed GoBots didn't reach that level of popularity.
HELLO! Came all the way from dropout to find you!
If it makes you feel any better, after Hasbro bought out Tonka (GoBot's creators) they apparently established that the GoBots are alternate dimension versions of the Transformers
SPOILERS: Deeply proud for getting the Gobots question (Skype CEO video. Thank you, Brennan.) and the Gedd question (years of obsessing over Animorphs pays off again). I always love to see Animorphs being referenced. I feel somewhat alone in adoring that series.
Still waiting on the exclusively Animorphs themed episode...
@@someonemagical Exactly, exactly. I can remember at least 3, maybe 4, questions about Animorphs already. They would have enough material for a full episode.
"From Cassie to Crayak, Nerds love a lot of things ...."
"From The Ellimist to Elfangor, Nerds love a lot of things ...."
One of the episodes with an Animorphs question, Poparena himself commented about it, the guy who reviewed every single Animorphs book on TH-cam. Definitely check him out if you haven't.
@@TheDanishGuyReviews arent we getting a hulu or amazon animorphs series i just hope its better than runaways if its hulu
@@donb7519 I never watched Runaways, but if it's like New Mutants, then any adaptation will be better than that one.
@@TheDanishGuyReviews the big issues with runaways is it 1 takes a concise 12 issue story and stretches it over 2 and a half seasons and 2. changes so much from the story only the very basic premise is intact
I always loved in stargate how every character pronounces goa’uld differently.. even whilst talking to each other
I love this episode so much! Everyone was so supportive to one another and had so much fun!
Yeah, the last time the couch worked together so well was the Valentine's show.
Seriously it was so nice feeling
The whole point of foci and spell component pouches is that they remove the need to track every single material component. You just need to make sure you've got one of those (and the expensive components, if you happen to use those spells). It's not about tracking "eye of newt" and crap.
i have played games where i had to track material components cause my dm wouldn’t give my dual classes character a ouch. so i bought a bunch of horses to carry a couple thousand gp of incense so i could cast a specific spell, i can’t recall hich
@@katteisace4563 You can just buy a pouch lol but even then you'd still need to manually track incense because that has a value listed. Pouches just contain everything general, but if it says something like 10GP worth of Incense (which Find Familiar does) then you need that separately.
You still can't use it to replace any spell component with a stated cost in gold: for example, many resurrection and restoration spells have diamonds or diamond dust as a component, and you must have these on hand in order to cast them.
@@SavageGreywolf Yeah, that's why I said "(and the expensive components, if you happen to use those spells)".
Fun fact: All Transformers ever are actually descendents of Go Bots, as the survivors of the Go Bot war seeded the multiverse with their identities so they could live on in better worlds. Two of the slain characters were even rebuilt into Starscream
I actually love this and this brings me peace thanks
27:48 - Um actually, in addition to the correction given in the episode, Orzammar (which was pronounced incorrectly) is not the capital of the dwarven empire because the dwarves don't have one of those anymore. It is one of two great thaigs that remain to the dwarves, the rest of their empire having been lost to the darkspawn.
Thank you! Also, the recently returned thaig Kal-Shirol does not acknowledge Orzammar's overlordship, since Orzammar sealed its borders centuries ago and abandoned the other thaigs to the darkspawn.
woohoo, a fellow dragon age fan, yeah!!!
@@timmyhkvt it's kal-sharok and yeah part of the reason was indeed as uou said because orzammar sealed itself off. another part is that kal-sharok has its own culture that is different from orzammar.
@@blaze4111 Lollercopter, yeah, Kal'Hirol is an abandoned tomb in the Hissing Wastes. Whoops! It's heavily implied that Kal-Sharok changed both because of its isolation, and anger over Orzammar's betrayal.
@@timmyhkvt close, kal'hirol is the thaig in awakening. in the hissing waste it wasn't a thaig it was the tomb of fairel.
Okay this episode was probably my fave. This had such good vibes. I love how the three of them were like...rooting for each other and hyping each other up. I wanna see the three of them back for another one.
The mention of the Nancy Drew games made me so happy! I spent so much time on those as a child.
same! (and i still spend a bit too much time playing them as an adult)
When Light misspelled the biker's name in the Death Note, I believe the misspelling rule didn't apply because he spelled it correctly on the first attempt. It's not really explained this way but it's the only thing that makes sense to me. The original rules in Japanese state that once a victim's name is written the death cannot be averted but it's not clear which rule should supercede the other.
He didn't died because you only die if you misspell intentionally, he didn't know how the guy's name was writen
@@esdrasfilipe431 That's not the rule in question, from what I remember the rule is that the person (the biker) will not be able to be killed by the Death Note if their name is misspelled unintentionally 4 times. But there is also a rule that once the name is written, the death can't be avoided. Spelling it correctly on the first attempt and then getting it wrong 4 times creates a contradiction, but the must-be-killed rule is the one that applied. Maybe because it happened first. The correction is that the misspelling rule is inconsistent. In my opinion, applying the misspelling rule would violate the other rule more.
@@totalrefan If you spell someone's name wrong 4 times, they become immune to future death note attempts. Once it's written, it can't be prevented by that loophole. Light got it within the first 4 tries. On top of that, if you intentionally misspell 4 times, you die. There's no contradictions there.
The death CAN be averted if the name is erased or the page burned
Happy Friday everyone who routinely watches Um actually!
Happy Friday to you too sir
Umm actually it's Saturday here
Good day my fine sir 😁
And a very cordial Friday to you as well good sir
I feel called out. Good on you sir
this one is so fun and positive and cooperative!! i love the episodes where everyone goes super hard but i really like how much you guys make 'matched' teams in terms of vibes and this one was a fun change of pace
Great couch guests. I dare you to not smile when Erika is around. Impossible.
Always happy to see Trish. Makes me miss the old sourcefed nerd days
THAT'S why I recognized her! Thank you, it was driving me insane trying to dig through my memory
Um, actually Big the cat's objective is clearly outlined. His story is about the quest for Froggys safe return and in every fishing quest Froggy is in a body of water somewhere. I'd say this is a problem with the player not paying attention to the game rather than the game not telling you what to do.
I think they meant the game itself was poorly designed as in his section was hard, not that it didn't make sense story wise
Unfortunately' knowing why big is doing something doesn't tell anyone how to play, or why the player has to do it
You’re correct, it is clearly stated what the objective of the level is and his storyline in general. My problem with it is, in my humble opinion, is that I don’t see how it makes sense in a Sonic game, and the controls for the fishing are incredibly sensitive and at times glitchy. But I can see why some people like him and his gameplay. I think Chaomix described it perfectly in his video.
Um, Actually: that Halo sound was the Overshield, where you simply referred to it as a shield. The playable characters already have a shield, which also uses the second sound when it regenerates; but the Overshield applies several additional layers of non-regenerative shielding.
In Combat Evolved, picking up an Overshield loops the shield recharge sound a couple of times as the upgrade is applied; the recharge sound has stayed consistent for SPARTAN-II armours throughout the games, and the first part of the played sound originally denoted just the active camouflage upgrade.
Yeah, the fact that they referred to it as a "power-up" leads me to assume whoever put that sound in there knows that, but near enough was considered good enough on the day.
Um, Actually: since this is the halo 3 version of the sound effect, the overshield does not contain several additional layers, just one.
Um, actually, while "a Halo shield" may not be the most precise possible term for it, it's not inaccurate. It's a kind of shield in the Halo games. Trapp is obviously not reading off the card when he says "a Halo shield," because he had just said the card indicates it's from Halo 3 in particular. He's just confirming that it was a) a shield sound effect, and b) from a Halo game and that was "close enough, close enough."
One of my favourite episodes so far. Love how everyone was so positive and supportive to one another.
Thet are literally Lawful Good, Neutral Good, Chaotic Good.
I'm living for the sisterhood in this episode. XD They're so kind to one another!
Um, actually "How many roads must a man walk down?" was the answer that the "mice" in charge of the project decided to go with in order to not have a PR fiasco, but was not really the correct answer.
Yes and they correctly corrected that. No extra points for more info
I love how with episodes with guys it’s a competition. But with all girls they’re actively cheering for each other
I love how in 15:00 they are making way better guesses than the actual big the cat portion of the game.
Love seeing the pure nerd rage that somebody might ignore material components in D&D!
In Hitchhikers Guide, the Answer to the Ultimate Question is wrong because humanity is descended from the Golgafrinchans (sp?) and not the cavemen, who die out when the "B-Ark" crashes into the Earth.
It's also stated as The Truth that the answer and the question can not be known at the same time. The question is never truly defined in the books
I just had an idea for a special episode of this show:
“From bars to barbells, jocks like a lot of things, but there’s one thing they like above everything else and that is proving their superiority”
All the questions that episode would be about sports trivia, sports history, or alcoholic drinks, and the shiny questions would just be push up contests.
As a one off I would love to watch this
And grant can be on this one too
Easiest way to do spell components, is to just have a price-tag on your spell component pouch that is roughly 3x the materials for all your spells that are under like 1 gold or whatever, and then each time you go to town you just spend that much to "refill" your pouch. And then when you learn new spells you just have to add the cost of the material components to that "price-tag" total.
If the components doesn't have a price, you don't have to pay for them. The component pouch is considered to have all the necessary components whitout value and no need to refill unless you want to haha
@@GaspardSavoureux01 Yup. If you really wanted to make players refill a pouch, a way easier way to rule it is to just treat it like ammunition. Pouch already has a price (25gp). It gives materials for X amount of spellcasts.
Yeah, the only thing you have to be careful about restocking, is if the spell explicitly states the component is consumed in the casting. Otherwise you always have it (free components), or only need to buy it once.
Not only getting to see Trisha Hershberger on screen again (haven't seen her since SourceFed) but a virtual pat on the back for knowing the GoBots question by virtue of being in HS when it started.
By the discussions happening in both the episode and the comments, it seems like a lot of people don't realise that most spell components are not consumed, so they don't need to be tracked or replenished.
My Arcane Trickster basically carries around a component pouch of rose petals, because Sleep is his only spell with a material component, but he never has to replenish his rose petal supply, becuase Sleep DOES NOT CONSUME THE COMPONENTS. So he's just reusing the same components over and over again.
As a contrast, Protection from Evil and Good specifically says that it consumes the holy water or powdered silver and iron, which means that anyone casting it without a focus or holy symbol would need to replenish their supply.
It's because prior versions of D&D had all material components be consumed by casting, with spell foci being non-consumed objects necessary for the spell. (checked 3.5, but I'm almost positive this is true of all editions
I know this is old, but even with a focus or holy symbol, consumed or costly material components are still required, and consumed components are still consumed.
@@EdwardDowner Not sure why I didn't mention components with a cost in my original comment, except I guess I was moslty trying to make a point about spells that DON'T consume components, rather than the ones that do.
Consumed materials with a GP value obviously need to be provided each time (although I know some DMs are fine with players just paying the GP price at the time of casting, rather than having the components ready ahead of time - depends on whether you see the prices as a way to force players to prepare, or just as a way to limit castings through expense). When it comes to components without a value which are consumed, the RAW wording very is ambiguous. It looks like RAI is that these must also be provided and can't be replaced by a focus, but because of how the written rules are worded, I'm personally incline to think either interpretation is valid. Since Protection from Evil and Good seems to be the ONLY 5e spell with consumed components that don't have an associated cost, I'm kind of assuming the intention was to have no consumed components without a cost, and one spell slipped through the cracks.
Cannot tell you how excited I am to learn someone else plays the Nancy Drew HER games!
That Altered Beast question absolutely made my day. Seems like nobody remembers that game anymore, or at least no one ever talks about it, but I played it a lot as a kid and those sound clips are seared into my brain. WISE FROM YOUR GWAVE!!!
This episode was so much more wholesome that usual lol
Yeah, Yeerk comes from "yrc", which is the Elvish (I don't remember if it's Quenya or Sindarin) for "enemy", which became "orc" in Westron. Also Aximili-Esgarouth-Isthill derives his middle name from Esgaroth, which is a city in Middle-Earth. K.A. Applegate is a Tolkien fan.
"Sonic fishing was the best"
THAT IS A LIE STRAIGHT FROM HELL
Not related to the statements but can I just say I LOVE the energy all the contestants give to each other 😊
As soon as sonic adventure was mentioned I flashed back to childhood memories of chao races, running from robots, and throwing my gamepad at the wall because I couldnt catch Froggy
YES I literally said “this is my time to shine”, because if I could get any of these right, it is the Sonic question. I actually had to get help for those because I’m one of those people who has to get 100%. Such a great game with lots of good memories.
Um, actually, the bird in Dark Souls isn’t technically Snuggly, that’s just a name given by fans. All “official” references to it call it hawk girl or something similar.
Sam's Nancy Drew comment conjured up a memory of mine. We had a PC game that was something like "Nancy Drew and the Haunted Carousel" and I only played the game until an arcade cabinet was repaired, at which point I stopped the story immediately and only ever played the game for Barnacle Blast.
Um, Kind of, Actually, while Gobots did premiere roughly a week before Transformers in 1984, their toy lines as source material appeared in a different order: Takara's Micro Change and Diaclone toylines from 1980 were adapted by Hasbro and Marvel for the Transformers storyline in 1984, while simultaneously Tonka's Gobots toyline premiered in 1983.
This feels about as convoluted as the space race, sure Gobots won the race but Transformers made most of the innovations first.
Tonka's Gobots were based on the Machine Robo line in 1982, so, yeah, the proto-Transformers came out years before the proto-Gobots in Japan, but Gobots beat Transformers to the US store shelves and airwaves.
This was one of the most wholesome episodes of "Um, Actually" and I immensely enjoyed it ❤
Trisha Hershberger - Lawful Good
Sam Maggs - Neutral Good
Erika Ishii - Chaotic Good
Maggs might change alignments depending on what she does to the KOTOR remake
Um, actually, a component pouch does NOT replace the material components of ANY spell. The component pouch is meant to CONTAIN the material components.
The little bits of encouragement between them like "that was a really good guess" is really wholesome
This is my favorite episode of Um, Actually now! It was so enjoyable! It is great when everyone on the show shares a passion and goes deep into a topic haha.
I'm glad I knew and remembered the GoBots one because of Brennan's Skype CEO sketch
Funny enough that Indiana Jones review hits really close to home. As a kid my dad put on Temple of Doom for me and my sisters and it traumatized us. I don’t think he himself knew very much about the movie and only that kids liked Indiana Jones and he remembered liking it as a kid. It didn’t help that we were fairly sensitive children, and all the heart ripping terrified us. We still give him grief about it. So I’m gonna have to agree with Novak on this one.
Every time that they say “Shiny questions are like shiny Pokémon and aren’t worth any more.” I want one of them to be the fact that there are actually three Pokémon games where they are different. Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal.
It's been a while since I watched Death Note, but I'd imagine the 4 times rule is 4 DELIBERATE misspellings of a name. I wouldn't put it past the Shinigami to go "Okay, that person's clearly messing around and not taking it seriously. They must die." And yes, the rules are confusing: I don't know if this is in the manga, but Ryuk says that the afterlife doesn't exist in the musical, while one of the Death Note rules in the manga is "The user of a Death Note cannot enter Heaven nor Hell."
Yeah it is specifically spelling the name wrong deliberately 4 times. I think it also makes the target immune to the death note as well, but admittedly, it's been more then a few years since I last watched the anime and I could be wrong about the exact details on that last fact.
In universe the heaven and hell rule still is true, it's just misleading. If you take Ryuk at his word, there is no afterlife. Thus a person who uses the Deathnote will go to neither heaven nor hell, which is true for everyone else as well.
@@Timmir00 yeah, deliberately misspelling the name four times will kill you, but accidentally misspelling the name will make the person you're trying to kill immune.
@@sceera1 Why do you need to spell the name correctly if the book still knows who you mean?
@@ItsZorroDood Shinigami can see peoples' names so they never worry about misspelling a name, so the rule is likely in there to incentivize humans to trade their lifespan away for Shinigami eyes
Oh, Stargate? Lovely. There's not enough Stargate talk anymore -.-
I hope that franchise gets picked up again at some point.
This was hands down my FAVORITE episode of Um, Actually! It was so much fun having everyone cheering each other on! Reminds me of the Horror Movie episode!
Um, actually, I'm not sure if Nugget really counted as a Rock Lord. The mini comic that came with his toy made a big deal about how he wasn't really a Rock Lord like the others but rather a robot . . . because he was a gold nugget and made of metal.
i loved how they were all just cheering each other on when they got points. the vibes were immaculate
Um actually, Sam didn't shame Trapp for not realizing that Unas was not a plural term, even though she herself knew it...
It actually is. Well, sorta. For singular they used both "Una" and "Unas" in the show. And "Unas" was literally the name of the first Goa'uld who attached himself to one, before they established the word as the name of the species instead. The show went threw a lot of growing pains like that.
This is the best episode I have seen so far!
Even though I somehow knew it was Halo while slightly drunk, I was so proud of Trisha for getting the Halo sound question right.
I haven't played Halo since the days of Halo 2 but watched a video of the Halo timeline recently. To the best of my knowledge there were no sound effects, but the shield sound just clicked instantly.
Um actually, the version of All Along the Watchtower that activates the Final Five Cylons is one that Sam played to Tory during their former lives on the first Earth. It's not an anachronism from our present 'Earth'.
Ha. Erika’s face when Mike says the ring lies about health boost. She makes the best faces. I love her
It doesn't lie though. The item description says it gives a "small increase to HP" and it increases your HP by 5%, It says nothing about regen.
Everyone is so upbeat and supportive of one another -- I think this is my favourite episode!
This episode was so wholesome! Loved it!
Not a gobots fan but as someone who has been trawling the internet for years I sure know a ton of completely inconsequential information including that
The second Erika pinged for that question my brain was screaming "LIKE POKEMON AND DIGIMON?!?"
the only reason i knew about gobots being first is because mulligan put it in a CH sketch where the CEO of skype is angry about zoom and listing other unsuccessful brands that came first lol
I think where I heard it was a robot chicken sketch about knock-offs and they mentioned that gobots isn't actually a knock-off
I only knew the Gobots things because I watch too much Toy Galaxy for someone who isn't interested toy collection.
There was an episode of "The Toys That Made Us" on Transformers that included the whole Go-Bot backstory.
The Chao Garden was a game changer for me, it was like a game was finally made for me! Fast forward 20+ years and wholesome is a legit genre!
This was an incredibly delightful nerdy episode. Lovely guests and trivia and merriment. 12:40 is a meme unto itself
Lol. Big the Cat as a stealth unit. It’d be like having a ninja Hagrid 😂
UM ACTUALLY, In regards to the Hitchhiker's Guide meaning of life, 6 times 9 is equal to 42 in a base-13 number system.
Someone else said that Adams himself said that that was just a coincidence.
That's like trying to find meaning in 42. There isn't any! Sure, you always will if you try hard enough. But the whole point is that there is no point. The books, just like universe itself, are under no obligation to make sense. That's the metaphor.
"Good guess, but even I don't make jokes in base-13." ~ Douglas Adams
I love how it wasn’t once mentioned that the couch was all women
such a lovely episode
I’d love to see a version of Um, Actually where they get the creators of some pop culture nerd stuff and exclusively ask them questions of their own properties to see how well they know their own stuff.
Um, Actually always makes Fridays the best day of my week ♥
Hey, since you brought up Marth in the intro, maybe you could put a Fire Emblem question in one of your future episodes? I don't think you've done one yet.
Great series would love to see it.
Look, I love seeing all of the contestants get along, but it's just more fun when they fighting with each other
As a Sonic fan, I was thrilled to FINALLY see a Sonic question! I was just laughing the whole time because I wholeheartedly agree that those levels make no sense. Gamma is the best story hands down, and Amy in SA1 is the best. Also played Nancy Drew and that’s how I learned to play Scopa! One of my favorite finds on TH-cam this year, please keep making these!
Re: Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, that movie (PG rating) was one of the main reasons that PG-13 was created.
That, and also Gremlins.
Sheena got in there too I'm sure.
And then the movie industry was forever worse for it because we've since had 35 years of directors compromising in order to make more profitable, but artistically neutered products, in order to get only a PG-13 rating.
I will never forgive Spielberg for it.
Um actually what is 6x9 is not the actual answer to life, the universe and everything. The super computer (Earth) meant to figure out the answer was corrupted when a planets most boring people crash landed and accidently killed all the original humans very early into the process of answering the question.
I am gonna um actually your um actually. Um, actually, in coding, * usually means "whatever you want it to be", and on the ascii table, * is 42.
6x9 is also 42 in base 13, but Douglas Adams has specifically stated that he does not write jokes in base 13.
This was delightful and has brightened my day, points all around! :)
I love this panel. What a fun vibe!
I felt like crying when nobody recognized Altered Beast. I loved that game as a kid
I played it on PC back in the day so the only power up sounds I heard were "bleep" "blop" "beep".
I hate your comment.
@@clvrswine Why
Yeah! That was actually the first thing that popped in my head when they mentioned Power Up sounds, so I was really excited to see I somehow predicted it to show up lmao

Um Actually, at the end of Battlestar Galactica we find out that the show happened a long time ago. What they heard was not a cover of All Along The Watchtower but the original song. Jimi Hendrix is the cover artist. Right?
Also, Hitchhiker's Guide doesn't tell us the Ultimat Question, Arthur gives them the BS question about man and roads, and the mice just go "fuck it, sure" and bring it to their home reality. This is specifically brought up at the beginning of one of the books, where it is stated that if the ultimate question and ultimate answer are ever known in the same universe, that universe will end and something stranger will replace it. Some believe our reality is the replacement.
Also gave myself a pat on the back for getting that Transformers question right!
Jimi was always the cover artist for "Watchtower." The version we thought was the "original" was done by Bob Dylan.
That song, much like the Star Spangled Banner, will always be a Hendrix song.
Would love to see these 3 return in another episode together . Good episode
Glad to see a Stargate question! I hope we get some more :D
Um actually, the Death Note rule about mispelling 4 times can align with the events of the series if Light got it in his first 4 tries. We are not shown how many seconds have passed.
Um, actually the Chao Garden in Sonic Adventure is the best mini-game to ever exist and needs it's own separate game somewhere
no because i would play a chao garden simulator game
21:25 look at just how quickly the producer came in with that “yes, it is”! 🤣🤣🤣 (yes, i know it could have been cut that way, but still)
Fan question - Throughout one piece there are many different mystical devil fruits, what you may not know is that animals can also eat them. Tony Tony Chopper was a reindeer who ate the human-human fruit increasing his intelligence and letting him transform into 3 forms, Pierre was a bird who ate the horse-horse fruit that makes him into a strange centaur and Funkfreed was an elephant that ate the sword-sword fruit and became a sword elephant.
Two problems with this. Well, I say two, but:
A. All Zoan type devil's fruits allow the user to take three forms, it isn't unique to Chopper. They have their "human" or original form, their half-beast form, and their beast form.
B. Chopper specifically can transform into a variety of "points", first with the use of rumble balls, a medicine he concocts in order to help him take on a temporary form, typically a specialized version of his hybrid form. Later, he leads to transform between these and additional "points" at will, giving him a number of different forms well above the average.
C. Funkreed IS a Zoan type, so unless I'm wrong, I believe that means "he" cannot possess the sword-sword fruit (which would fall under paramecia type). Instead, I'm fairly sure that "he" is a sword which, thanks to technology invented by Vega Punk, "consumed" the Elephant-Elphannt Fruit (that's definitely not it's name; based on the naming conventions through out the series it's probably called something like the Trunk-Trunk fruit model Elephant but this is all pure guess work) allowing it to take the form of an elephant as well as an elephant-sword hybrid. Other examples of this are a gun which was given the Dog-Dog Fruit, Model: Dachshund and subsequently has a puppy and puppy/gun hybrid form (I believe in a cover story it's revealed the gun's dream is to become a tank, making it a puppy/tank hybrid.... It's strangely sweet seeing it achieve it's little gun puppy dream).
I like the idea of the question, but it needs a more straightforward wording to help carve out the number of potential incorrect statements contained within. Also, I've by no means seen all the episodes of this show, but I would love to see a question regarding the three types of devil's fruit or a shiny question matching devils fruits to their users.
