Tabletop Time Machine videos should be posted to youtube in some funny order (maybe reverse to filming or chronological by time landed in) so that there could be references to jokes from "previous" episodes that haven't happened yet.
3:30: Ooh, there's an idea. Edit in a little battery icon at the edge of the screen and have it fill up a little each time someone charges the fact batteries...and have it drain a little each time someone gives a really, really wrong answer. It's a little more editing work, but it might sell the concept better.
my grandmother went on a cruise and found a meeting for the "friends of Dorothy" Her name is Dorothy, by the way. She went to the meeting and announced to the attendees, " I'm Dorothy, and I suppose you are all my friends" which is when she found out that the meeting was for LGBT+ folks. she was NOT taken aback and made some wonderful friends that evening
IMHO The time mashine format really works, That being said, i think sticking the four of you in a kitchen with Go-pros infront of you is a recipie for laughter anyways
I would love to see this but with a bit more of a budget, like having a screen behind them that shows a battery being charged or something, and at the end of the show it will show a time vortex kind of visual to signify that they're heading off to another time
It needs some kind of explicit rule or on-screen display for how charged the fact-battery is. Are they looking for 8 facts? Are various facts weighted differently? Without that, it seems like mild groping in the dark for information Tom accepts and comes across as 'Citation Needed' sans a single cohesive topic.
On one hand, Citation Needed worked perfectly fine without any hard rules for how close you need to be to get a point (to say nothing of the Mystery Biscuits), and it didn't seem like anyone was paying too close of attention to the points. On the other hand...yeah, this could use some refinement.
Chris already has read all the books there are (he gets them directly from the Author when they come out) and Garry Brannan might be your Favorit up until now, could change tho as the Time passes on.
Maybe the time machine's travels are the true origin OF the mystery biscuits? We don't know where they came from, or even really what they are, they just appeared one day in the middle of the control console, and everyone's just a little bit too scared to actually open them and collapse the waveform. Perhaps for TTTM they could be upgraded to SCHRODINGER'S BISCUITS
I'm afraid I don't know. All I have in my time machine are kitchen appliances and the best I have is a 24 hour clock on my oven. In hindsight this was a bad idea.
One might have thought of Grand Coulee Dam instead, with nearly four times as much concrete as Hoover Dam. Same era, construction begun just a couple of years later.
Okay, I really like this format. Needs a knockoff tardis sound for charging, a ding for when they're at full charge, and a lever to throw with a satisfying kachunk.
This video annoyed me because it's super wrong about Hoover. Stop crediting Hoover with Roosevelt's accomplishments. While Hoover did start the work on the dam, it was completed under Roosevelt and it was Roosevelt, not Hoover, who did all of the public works programs and things of that nature (the New Deal).
Blame whoever named the dam damn. Most Brits learn a _lot_ less American history than most Americans, so the names and so on are pretty dominant on their understanding of stuff.
Find 3 mates, find something to talk about, and make them guess. Simple format, not difficult to achieve, do a little editing and you have your own. I'm not saying that it's a replacement, but it'd be good to look back on yourself and your mates in a decade or so, for shits and giggles.
Each player should get their own fact batteries, and the one who charges their battery the most gets to drive the time machine home. OR is the only one who gets to go home? You need some animation
Just a heads up: Roosevelt was the one known for the massive back-to-work infrastructure and job plans. Hoover’s term in office ran out almost immediately after the 1929 crash
It's Chris's kitchen. He has quite a bit of muscle, so he probably works out often and supplements with whey. Why he has so much, idk. 1 of those containers should last about 1 - 1.5 months
Though I'm not too familiar with it myself, any time I've seen someone take delivery of or use the stuff, it's in a big ol' bucket sized jar. I think that's just the general container size it's delivered in.
We know too little about Chris. We know that he is from Sheffield, that he reads books, and has a wide-ranging interests including aviation and geography. We don’t know that he still lives is Sheffield, but he might do, and this kitchen could be in Sheffield. We do know that it seems to be clean, well-equipped, and has at least two tubs of whey protein and a very steep stairway. We also don’t know what he looks like with no clothes on, which is a bit of a shame. What else do we know about the very handsome Chris Joel?
In like 1st grade I loved the Magic Treehouse books and my friend and I would pretend that one of the play structures on the playground was a time machine and we’d have to guess where we were and try to fix things
It keeps bugging me that Gary referred to the construction works post-Great Depression as implemented by Hoover, even though that was all in the FDR period.
I need to get into some hobbyist electronics, because throwing together a little time travel box with a battery indicator and a lever would make for a great gift.
I love being back in the kitchen. I also love this series. For some reason I am much more capable of yelling right answers, making it very engaging. Although I thought Russia when you said concrete. This was a good one, guys.
And (Chris probably know this) there was an Italian fighter plane of the Second World War (which was actually quite good, fact fans) that was partially open cockpit. I think it was called the S.200. It was partially open cockpit because madlad Italian test pilots PREFERRED it that way.
One of the 'Life in the UK' test questions is: 'who invented radar?' (answer: Robert Watson-Watt). Quite interesting isn't it that four intelligent, well-informed Britons who have lived here since birth didn't know that.
Btw we only need it accurate to a year because the time machine locates position based on the suns radiation so there’s only one time in a year that you can land on earth, otherwise you’re in a kitchen going very fast through space.
Tom/Matt, how come you don't use the GoPro Fusion to film this, surely that'd be better than 4 separate cameras? I love the crazy concept of this quiz 😇
Definitely like tabletop time machine the best - glad you guys decided to do it again as your final experiment, I hope to see it on Tom's main channel :)
That was great! I still think that this is one of the best ideas you've had on these experiments (unless you count the Nth Degree and double horses) and I hope to see more of it sometime soon. Great videos guys!
