I'm still very proud of my 2.63. Also I'm very impressed that so many of you in the comments have taken the time to do the math on how many people there would be/how many people would have to be giving birth in order for some of the other answers to be true! Kudos to you all!
The win was well earned. Seriously if you put 2.63 on a t-shirt I would buy all the shirts!
Kudos to your awesomeness Blair!!!! You’re the only one that can give Adam a run for his money in terms of charisma!!!
4 minutes in and Laurie's said 523 out of the 194(ish) countries in the world have KFC. This is going to be a hell of a time
197 if you count kosovo, palestine, and taiwan
Yeah, when Oli said something about 900 countries in the world I really hoped he was joking ... and he was, while others apparently fell for it xD
that has to be the dumbest thing laurie has ever done, and it's insane that multiple people didn't start laughing their ass off when they saw it.
I'd say this is much more bizarre than the 4000 plane kills for red baron answer.
198 if you count Hawai'i @@squirtleskil Though it depends where the count came from, bc if it's from anywhere other than the US, it probably already counts it.
If 929000 babies were born every minute then 1.3 billion babies would be born every day. Since there’s roughly 3.9 billion women in the world, today would require every women to have a baby every 3 days
Thank you, I was looking for this comment.
Likewise, if it was just 1, there would only be 1440 babies born a day, or 525600 a year. Even ignoring that the birth rate would decline rapidly as the population dropped, this would mean that in 100 years, the global population would plummet from the 7+ billion today, to just 52.5 million.
@@Fluffyudders I don’t know which one is more dystopian
How can they be so dumb 😂😂😬
More extreme than that, if we somehow maintained the birth rate of 929,000 babies per minute, there would be almost half a trillion babies born every year.
Super entertaining! I love that the answer was 20.6% for the smoking question. Haha. Thanks for playing my game. Makes me one proud papa. :-)
I could tell this was going to be a wild game when at 3:01 Oli said there are 960 countries!
to be fair he was lying to make the fuckup and it worked
Starting off well. Two of the 6 guesses for number of countries with a KFC are for more countries than there are lol
And in the baby round one of them guessed that 1,440 babies were born every day and someone else guessed that 1.3 billion babies are born every day
And the answer is pretty eh. Since it includes "territories". France is at least 4 times in the KFC list. the US at least 3 times. So it probably should be more "more than 108"
As an American who is terrible at geography it was kind of comforting. Maybe this isn't an American kind of dumb! Maybe it's just a regular kind of dumb!
@@andsailedcalmlyontbh it's an unacceptable kind of dumb
Blair with that 2.63 babies won my night! I laughed so hard I cried. Blair is wonderful
Blair is my favorite person at the board club. Worst to first and passing by with the 2 fingered salute
2.63!!!!
Blair stole the show. She really is absolutely wonderful. So happy she got the win, a true underdog story!
The real shocker of this is that “69” was a correct answer for once.
Nice
A Joke that became Money... and then another came in the form of 2.63 🤣
Oli not realizing that his answer of 69 won but then quickly realizing it did win, was highlight of the year
I just want to acknowledge that Cameron Grimes joke, Adam, since nobody else did! Well done!
TO THE MOON!!!
Feeling kinda down having xmas on my own until the 929,000 babies a minute had me crying with laughter. Most I've laughed in months, thank you all so much.
It's a bloody shame no one caught the "so beside Cameron Grimes" comment regarding people that have been on the moon.
Shocking maths on display in the babies per minute round. By Oli's, 1.3 billion people are born every day.
(13:56)
Hi! Metalhead here to say that there are actually over 4,500 Finnish metal bands on the Metal Archives!!
Greatest comeback in Phenoma-nerds history right there! Yay Blair! She's delightful, and that was fun!
I traditionally host an open house brunch New Year’s Day. Food, drink, and games galore! Obviously I won’t be doing that this year. So instead I’m doing a Zoom open house where we’ll be playing party games! You guys have been a big help when it comes to choosing games!
I think Jon's innocent question "how many questions are there?" Triggered some PTSD from Oli 😂
Portland resident, having a smoke while watching this vid. Definitely feel attacked, thanks Blair. Way to fuckin out us.
Thank you guys for these videos. This has obviously been a rough year and these videos are a much needed great and entertaining distraction.
100,000 babies a minute is 6 million babies an hour. That didn't strike any of them as high.
Multiple people putting answers for amount of countries with a KFC higher than the total amount of countries hurt my soul, but it was a good play by Oli to sneak that initial misinformation in while everyone was writing xD
The metal bands one is probably just talking about signed bands. If we're talking underground/local/garage bands then the number would be much higher, but that's much more difficult to track
Livin'on a Blair 😂😂😂😂😂
2,63 babyyyyyy
This series has very quickly become one of my favourites on TH-cam. Starting to make a tally of games I need to get my family to play over zoom
Blair has such a nice smile.
This was quite the difficult game when you have to consider multiple things in one question
man that last round was so intense,Adam forgot what show he was hosting :D
It anyone wants to know, there are 195 countries in the world
Is that the UN number? I think FIFA have a slightly higher number around 208, BUT that's likely because of things like the UK countries being independent under FIFA but not under the UN
The most accurate number would be "around 200". CGP Grey made a video about this
@@ishoottheyscore8970 yes, generally a country isn't considered a country (as in an independent sovereign nation) unless it's a member of the UN. There are technically more countries if you get into the weeds of things like the UK being technically made up of 4 different countries, or states that don't have UN recognition like Palestine, or even microstates like Sealand that have zero recognition outside the one dude that claimed "I am a country now", but the generally accepted meaning of the term "country" is an independent state that is a member of the UN in its own right.
@@HMJ66 the un number is 193. Although 197 is the number of countries recognized by atleast one un country.
I joined the Olithority with his comment about "Have any of you volunteered this year?" Thank you, not for defending Americans, but just being honest.
I could watch you guys play this game for hours. Cant wait to play it.
Love this time of the week! It makes me want to play more games like these. Props to you Adam for creating the channel. It's easy to enjoy when you're watching a group of great people playing. #SupportPhenoma-Nerds
I love how when everyone says Blair it sounds like BLEH because of their accents. I can’t unhear it.
Love the channel! Been following Adam for years now!
Great video! Thank you for giving us the link to the game. Will for sure play this with my zoom friends.
Blair's answer of 5% means that statistically, the only time anyone in the US volunteers is literally on accident and just as likely even if they were attempting to avoid volunteering.
Less people, but still as fun as ever. Great Job! You're on a Winning Streak Board Game Club! 😁
Also, Oli is the Chris Jericho of BGC, always has a new Gimmick every episode. 😂
I thoroughly enjoyed this
I just watched this one again and 2.63 is still one of my favorite moments.
I absolutely adore Blair! I admire how kind and thoughtful she is and she always makes me laugh with her silly jokes. I love that she is also an Oregonian like me!! ❤
Woowww this game looks AMAZING!!!
Yay boardglame club!! You guys are awesome! #getonboard
Oh my goodness. Oli was so close! Haha. Fun game.
Damn, that was legit fun to watch
Blair won me over with that Stone Cold salute🖕😂🖕
What have they done to me? I heard KFC and thought.. where's Nugget???
It's the "how many american babies have died their hair... on the moon!" for me
Brilliant guys
Lmao. I love how everyone wanted to dump on Americans for not volunteering and when they asked themselves they said “Uhh.. COVID. Can’t.” 😂
The British are the best example of the pot calling the kettle black when it comes to criticizing Americans.
Blair's stinkface at the babies question was fantastic.
I hate the first questions bets got me raging already
I knew it was 12 I was SCREAMING at the screen
For the Babies question, I feel like that's a good place for fermi estimates. There's roughly half a million minutes in a year, 8 billion people. figuring the average 2.5 kid family size (knowing that that figure probably skews lower because I think it's American and it's higher in many developing nations, but also figuring that there are countries with lower birth rates too, such as famously Japan, and birth rates dropping globally, meaning year to year birth rates are probably lower than this estimation, and people who for whatever reason never have children), divided by a 70 year life expectancy (which because the population numbers would include people too old or young to have kids, we're also using the full life expectency) gets you to about 286 births, which is shockingly close to the real value, for all the assumptions being made.
2.63 is legendary
Is this a specific app to play this? Would love to do something similar with my family
It's good to know that Adam doesn't kill his opponents.
What website are they using to play the game?
Today I learned that otherwise seemingly normal people are apparently unable to perform basic mathematics.
their estimations of how many countries there are, and the number of babies was very off, and concerning
Where can you download this game?
929,000 babies a minute is 1,337,760,000 babies a day...
1:59 'one of a kind' (unless you play Tag Team QuizzleMania)
I own this and have never played it. I own ticket to ride and have never played it. I bought several games at an unfortunate age where socializing at a house became far less common. Even without a pandemic I never really see anyone unless we're meeting somewhere for some kind of activity.
This is a great game to play remotely!
I've got to assume the 20.6% smoking has to be cigarettes, I know chewing tobacco brings it down, but weed, vaping and cigars have got to push it over 40% at the least. UK is at 13.9% for cigarettes, and we've got all sorts of laws prohibiting where you can smoke, and how you can advertise cigarettes, but 6.6% of England use cannabis regularly, which obviously includes edibles and drops but has got to be mostly still smoking surely and is almost half again in itself.
Obviously I don't know when these numbers were sourced, but the more recent numbers for the US are 14% smoke cigarettes, which seems like a reasonable drop down from 20%, but would surely be a huge raise if you counted all forms of smoking.
Hey! Horray! A new face!
OLIIIIIIIIIII YOU WERE SOOOOO CLOOOOSSSSSSSSEEEEEEEE
The last question was incredibly painful since I’m a huge space nerd. The answer is two people on each of 6 NASA missions for a total of 12. It would have been 14 if not for the Apollo 13 incident.
8:38 tbh, I thought it meant metal bands like rings 💍 and bracelets not the 🎸 kind
I would suggest looking at the number of countries in the world everyone. It is around 200, so that first segment was both hilarious and a bit painful.
Yeah 193 is not correct that is actually just the number of countries a part of the Untited Nations. I was screaming during this question
@@chickenpanda1179 i consider 197 because i consider kosovo, palestine, and taiwan to be countries
Oli wrote down 12 people had been on the moon with his working out and still bet it all on smaller/9.
Madness
I am sure somebody asked this before, so if anybody knows: what program/app are they using?
Streamyard, I think. It's what they use to host Quizzlemania, anyway.
@@glenndallas7171 thank you very much :)
What did you play this on?
Yay Portland! Go Blair!
From moment Laurie said that 500-some of the around 200 countries had KFCs in them, I knew we were going to have some wildly inaccurate numbers in this game. (I'm surprised that the actual answer to that was as high as 150)
I didn't remember if the factoid was approximately one baby every 5 seconds or 5 babies every second, but all the people putting over 1k babies a minute... like do you think every single person on earth is giving birth to as many babies as possible??? Do you think everyone who can be is pregnant at ALL TIMES??? A baby every 9 months from ages 11 to 55 nonstop?
I actually agreed with Blair on the Americans community service question... I’m from Las Vegas. Lol
I thought 9000 babies a minute was a crazy answer, but .9 Million is insane.
Blair is American?
You gotta be kidding me.
Where did you find the PC version of the game? I would love to play this with all of my friends.
I think it's in the links to their video for games that can be played over zoom, but you're right it should also be in the links here
@@ishoottheyscore8970 It actually is in the description.
@@dumbname939 It is now, but it wasn't when the video was first released.
@@ishoottheyscore8970 Oh alright.
phenomenerds heehee
I’m so late to this video but as a New York Yankees fan and a science nerd I was SCREAMING that there had been 12 men on the moon. Because every Yankees fan knows the stat that more men have walked on the moon (12) than men who have scored a run against Hall of Fame Yankees closer Mariano Rivera in the MLB postseason (11)
I can't believe *two* of them came up with the correct answer but no one bet on it
I really thought it was 11 on the moon answer
how the mighty have fallen indeed
Is there a British parody of this game called Twits and Wankers? If so, sign me up.
British parody would be Bets and Bollocks!
@@ishoottheyscore8970 A much more tame and accurate title.
The moon question should have explicitly said moon's surface or the answer is 24. You don't stop being on Earth when you're inside so the people in the lander are on the moon.
I agree with that thinking. You can visit a national park by driving through it and staying in your car. So the same logic should apply here.
And if you wanted to go the really pedantic way in the opposite direction, you could say zero, as the astronauts were in suits, so they didn't touch the moon directly.
can i just say, the babies per minute answers were so insanely absurd, i thought i was losing my mind. if 100k babies were born every minute, that would mean 144 million babies would be born in a single day. absolutely mental. I did some math that I thought was gonna be bs but it got me pretty close. it checked out to 133 and i made my official guess 150 just bc i thought it would be higher. I did 7 billion divided but 100, bc yknow not many people living longer than 100 years, so thats roughly the time there would be for all these people to be born, then divided by 365 to get down to 1 day, then again by 24 to 1 hour, and then finally by 60 to get to 1 minute. and it makes sense it was more than that bc the average lifespan is definently less than 100 years
I decided to do this same strategy but using the average life span of a person in 2010 (67.2 years) and the population in 2010 (6.97) and this number got me closer again, with 197.34 babies per minute. once again I am not surprised this number is below the correct answer as im pretty sure the world population was growing pretty fast around this time, which would require for the amount of births happening to be higher than previous years, otherwise I am pretty sure global population would stay steady
The moon question isn't right! 12 people have walked on the moon, but there are people who've been and haven't walked!
There is only about 200 countries in the world (give or take, depending on who you ask) so idk where they are getting thousands from. lol
really shocked the uk ppl didnt get the birth question right. the one born every minute show is roughly right for uk(slightly higher now) could just done some quick maths to equate to global an u get a rough estimate in the 200 range
first rule of Board Game is DON'T EAT FUCKING CRISPS
24k kfcs world wide I knew because its part of the training manual.... I lasted 4 months 😂
Per country however fuck knows
ten Americans have been to the moon, so I would have gone with 12 and 14
19:18 Adam, are you going for a porky pig (looney tunes) voice over there?
2.63!!!!!!!!!!
They should have asked "How many Americans have ever been on the moon". (Same answer though! 🇺🇸🚀)
2.63
No hate to any of the players at all, I love this channel, but it’s incredibly frustrating to watch people misunderstand the game mehcanincs. For example at 21:37 multiple people would rather bet on the interval 20-21 than the interval 22-40, despite similar odds. And even worse they could have the interval 0-19 for even better odds. A bet on the 20-21 interval is an objectively a terrible expected return.
Edit: To be fair Jon realised this almost instantly after betting haha
Double edit: Of course 20-21 ended up being the right answer after everything I just wrote hahahahaha
I also think the visual design of the game should take some blame, since it can be confusing. I would suggest having the numbers offset to the left of each betting zone, so it’s more clear you are betting on an INTERVAL from this number up to (but not including) the next number, rather than just betting on the number ALONE. Aside from this the game design is very clever, it’s looks like a great game.
The guesses on the babies question…yikes Lmfao
Where is the online version

@@NoRollsBarred thanks mate.
1 million babies per minute. 60 million babies per hour. 1440000000 babies per day. Guys?
The first rule of Board Game Club is don't kill anybody?
Yes.
Oh Oli...
