I’ve got severe ADHD too, and I know what it’s like to immediately lash out-rejection of any kind hurts far worse for us, can even be physically painful from tiny things-and is hard to manage. That doesn’t mean the behavior is ok, but it’s like watching someone get mad over traffic, you get it, you know, but that doesn’t mean it’s acceptable to have road rage like that.

      @Anavay Mudholkar Dream did not rig the vote
      he did ask people to vote for it before the voting started on twitter and then he spammed glowsquid
      before I go into what made the glowsquid win i want you to be aware that multiple other big minecraft youtubers
      demanded there fans to vote iceologer i don’t remember all the ones which did but I do know antvenam was one of them.
      Now the reason why the squid won, before the minecon event happened some big modding youtubers made a mod of what they thought each mob will be like in game.
      For there version of the glowsquid they made it emit light and they made it drop a item that makes a new potion which was vary OP and unbalanced.
      Its effect being that it will freeze your enemy’s when hit with the potion.
      This alone was not a bad thing but the problem was one of them also reports Minecraft update news on his YT channel and some thought that’s how it really was going to be like.
      It also doesn’t help that he made the title and thumbnail as clickbiatish as possible.
      That all said I think it’s safe to say what drove the squid to actually win was not Dream but rather it was clickbait and community mods which mislead people on the actual features.

    One thing that bugs me to this day about this drama is the claim “Why would Dream cheat when he is so popular and so skilled?” It is not uncommon for the best players in a game, electronic or athletic, to resort to cheating. Saying Dream would never cheat because he is already one of the best Minecraft players is like saying Lance Armstrong would never dope because he was already one of the best cyclists, or that Richard Hatch would never sneak in matches because he had already won survivor.

      I agree with that point. That's not why I believe he didn't cheat. Dream seems to be an honest guy and unless he blatantly admits to cheating, I won't believe it. Just because odds seem to be against him, doesn't mean that he cheated. Odds are against people all the time. People are given a couple months to live and then die of cancer, but then live 50 years more. The odds of getting struck by lightning are 1 in 9 million. Lots of people have been struck two, three, or even four times. One man was struck 7 times. Odds that seem totally impossible, happen all the time. That's something to think about

I've been checking the math myself and it leans a lot closer to what Dream's astrophysicist math was. I'm not done checking it though so I can't be too sure. The odds def aren't in his favor, but there are tons of his games that he's played where he had a lot worse luck, whether uploaded or not.

      Do any of you realize how much effort it would take to stage 40 minute plus video? Just a 3 minute long script(for example) would take up like 5 pages in google docs. This isn't even about Dream being a good person or not, I just think it's much more plausible all of the things you point are just bugs, luck, or Dream being good, than him actually scripting everything from the start.

That it doesn't being right or telling the truth doesn't matter, just how loud or how famous you are. We definitely don't need more of that, especially here.
    Ultimately, Dream knows in his own mind what he did. Even if he had gotten the WR, you still live with that knowledge that it was all fake. That has to have some weight, unless you only care about it for the views, clicks, and money.

    @davebob8506 3 ปีที่แล้ว +58

    How Dream got away scot-free, I honestly don't know. Was he too big to fail? Does he know how to control his fans that well?
    In a QnA around a year ago, Dream stated that he entered the TH-cam scene prepared. Unlike almost all other TH-camrs who simply got lucky with the algorithm, Dream spent hundreds of hours reading on internet fame, researching the ins and outs of other youtubers and making his own notes. His upload topics were methodical, he knew that he was going to blow up. And it makes me wonder, did he also read up on crowd control?
    How did this incident not send him crashing down into obscurity? Dream almost certainly knew he'd be caught when he modified the drop chances especially since he knew the modteam hated him.
    It's obvious that Dream didn't prepare for this. He was obnoxiously rude in his first reactions to both the modteam and the original exposee video; you can clearly see his temper leaking in both those first responses. He then realised how bad that made him look, and reconstructed a much more constructive comment.
    So did this mean he wasn't planning to be caught? He must have balls of steel to cheat then.
    But alas hindsight is 20/20 and Dream got away with a net positive. Did he deserve it? No. Did he get it? Sadly, yes.
    This drama is more of a testament to how gullible and impressionable his audience is, and how they're basically puppets to him.

    It's honestly sad that I can't no longer enjoy videos from Dream, because of this incident.
    The fact that he was cheating and now he is exploiting his young naive audience are the proof of how manipulative he is. When you're a famous youtuber, your mistake will stick to your image forever. Maybe Dream will be more mature in the future, maybe he won't, who know. But we know for sure, Dream is so rich now that he can live with his mistake forever no doubt. His stanbase (not fanbase) will defend him forever to keep his ego stand.

      which in a court case can’t stand without solid evidence this hurts both sides
      in dreams case as it drags the drama on and on but still no solid evidence
      weather dream cheated or not is up for each person to decide themselves
      it’s also possible dream used a mod for better performance that could of altered the game values

      The real irony of the whole situation is that if he'd just managed to hold off and not cheat (or not play at all, given how intolerable the 1.16 meta of the time was for him with regards to pearl rates) for two more months, he'd have been around to see the advent of new strategies that almost completely removed pearl luck as a factor toward good runs. Instead, the luck tilted much more heavily toward world generation (and dragon perch, that never goes away), and has more or less remained there even as the WR is now on the verge of breaking the 11 minute barrier.

    I think that the worst part is that Dream, with his popularity, had the ability to make something out of this. He could have made a speedrun category called something like "Perfect Luck". Using a public mod where the run was based on skill instead of RNG. There WAS potential for something great, but he decided to publish a cheated run.

    • @BlueCyann
      @BlueCyann 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      It's all kind of happened anyway. There are tournaments that use datapacks to bind RNG luck to the world seed, so that both competing runners get the same exact drops. There's a tournament that uses a mod to guarantee certain drops within a certain number of opportunities for them. The meta of the base game itself has become wildly less dependent on pearl barter RNG since bastion strats became widespread in December or so. There's even an entire separate category right now, called FSG, that boils the essence of playing a "random" seed down to as close to its bare minimum of pure skill as it'll probably ever get -- after finally being "discovered" by a few top-level runners in the past month, the WR is down to 7:16.
      He could have been happy playing any of these.

    I used to think Dream was incredible and funny and loved that he got big. That is until he manipulated his audience to vote the Glow Squid by tweeting he would follow anyone who proved they voted the Glow Squid. Where the Glow Squid and Iceologer were neck-and-neck originally, his manipulative tweets resulted in the vote swinging in favor of the Glow Squid and it ultimately won. I lost all respect for Dream after that. He manipulated his younger audience to get what he wanted, spitting directly in the face of a community vote.
    When this controversy came around and everyone was shitting themselves over how Dream could do such a thing, I just thought "ah, yup, now others realize how Dream really is".

    After Standup Maths, a mathematician stood up and talked about it, analyzing everything, I am so convinced that he must have done something to his version of Minecraft.

    the real reason why Dream got in such a massive controversy is not the act of cheating itself but how childish he was in his response, he attacked moderators that were just doing their job, made stupid and fake excuses just to later admit that he cheated "by mistake" (which is clearly not true, let's be real, if you use a mod for your videos and get accused of cheating, the first thing you think is that you might have forgotten those mods in your folder, you don't randomly remember about it when you are sure you can't get away with your false excuses) and only later apologized, after the damage was done.

    I stumbled upon dream's channel when it was very small, it had 9k subs at the time. He was creating cursed Minecraft content and I really liked it it, so I decided to subscribe. He then started the series that I think started his career, where he was trying to find the Pewdiepie seed. The seed was then found by him and a couple of other people which grew his channel to 30k subs. He continued doing funny Minecraft stuff. Even a video where he would give 1$ to anyone he sees with his skin in Hypixel. But his channel suddenly blew up, when he started making the "Minecraft unsolved" and his modded series with George, his channel started getting into everyone's recommended section, it grew rapidly from 50k subs to 1 million in only 1 month. He then started his speedrunning series, from this point on, his videos started being low quality, unedited videos. His channel got like 2 million subs a month from this point on, and his content started being more soulless, I lost most of my respect to him when he started cheating
    Note: most of his old videos are now deleted

    To give you an idea of how unlikely 1/7,500,000,000,000 is, imagine a stack of dollar bills that stretches to the moon AND back. (Roughly 700,000 kms altogether).
    Now imagine that ONE of those notes belongs to you.
    You decide to grab your note from the stack, so you reach over and pull out a single note.
    The chances of pulling YOUR note on the VERY FIRST try are about the same as the level of luck Dream would have had during his livestream attempts.
