Gonna say the same thing. Aargh! LOON _ _ _ _ LAOS There's only two options and LAON ain't it. And the clue Heads (nautical term) to chiefly brit. Loos was cute as a button. (though my all-time fav crossword clue is simply: "Apple's apple, e.g. ")
22:27 Also Only NL would skip an obvious answer like the Simpsons to go back to an answer he already skipped in order to later give the correct answer to what he mistakenly though he skipped before. The man is a legend.
The fact that he doesn't realize there's only two options for the gap between two entries on a ladder is slightly frustrating... For example between MATE and MITT, there can only be MATT or MITE. Between WAITER and BANTER can be WANTER or BAITER. Between CHIVES and CRIMES can be CRIVES or CHIMES. The only exception is if the same letter is changed, like ABCD -> ACCD can anything of the format A_CD.
I am amazed that NL dominates so hard on the word ladders despite not knowing how they work seemingly at all. He's gonna be unstoppable when he finds out what they are.
Egg dad, please notice that in the word puzzles when you have the answer above and below there are only 2 options available for letters to be switched. Always impressed by your ability to remember actors/actresses names even more than movies
At the last one he could've gotten every last one because by typing any of the already guessed countries that bordered an empty space the bordering country would also appear. Example: He typed in Timor-Leste which had already been guessed and Turkey appeared
1:10 That's the difference between a sports car brain and a bulldozer brain. The former spits out the top 5 answers and then hits a wall, the latter revs up the neural hydraulics and digs deep for encyclopedic answers.
@Northerlion I just wanted to help you on the word latters, since the letters can only be changed by 1 at a time, it could help if you know both words on each side. Like if you have back and bech on each side of one word, you know the word must be either beck or Bach, since only one letter can change at a time
The four letter word ones are trivia at first but from one to the next in order they only change by one letter, so you can decipher what it is if the one above and below are answered.
20:04 had to stop myself from yelling "JUSTICE!" at my laptop lmao, but NL is still way better at this stuff than I am on anything not related to my own government lol
Ryan, ya gotta remember that the answers on the word ladders will only have one different letter between the answers directly above and below it. So if you have both of those answers, there are only two possibilities for the one in between. Loving this content nonetheless, hope you keep at it for a while! :) Edit: lmfao that last quiz is kind of poorly made, you could just enter one of the answers that had been revealed but not typed and it would treat it like a new answer. It happened when NL entered Timor Leste, and possibly before that too
Yo egg, to remember how to spell Kyrgyzstan, I always harken back to the circa 2013 video wherein KYRSP33DY parodies the nature channel but with Call of Duty. In it, he refers to Kyrgyzstan as "KYR jizz stain" and I have never forgotten since.
I don't understand how NL can't get the final clue on a word ladder. There's literally only two possible answers and you aren't penalized for typing a wrong answer
Dumb question. Anyone know if the DNR is an executive branch as well? Cause like the states have their own like department of education, so like shouldn’t the DNR be on that quiz? Or is the DNR only a state by state thing? Cause if not then who the fuck protects the eagle ya know?
If you have the answer before and after the clue in a word ladder you only have 2 possible answers for it... WAITER and BANTER share *A*TER so you get either BAITER (banter with the I from waiter) or WANTER (waiter with the N from banter). Usually one of the possibilities isn't a word.
The doctor for father and child quiz is a Deep cut, the father is literally only in one episode, granted the episode is about their relationship but still
