Channel Update August 2017

[@SwiftScribbles]

I would like to see a series about puzzle designing, how to come up with ideas which are solvable, and how to know how hard a puzzle is. The times i tried to design a puzzle it was either too hard to solve or too easy.

[@ShadowMadeKiller]

I second this idea.

[@kmlkmljkl]

I'd really like this. I'm working on a puzzly game, and I'm having some trouble thinking of puzzles that could work.

[@marcelvdberg]

If you can spare the time: more attention for puzzle designing would indeed be great! But i think your channel is already great as it is now! I really enjoy your video's!

[@contramuffin5814]

[@UnfortunateFreakNo1]

I'm excited about the new puzzle content, but don't stress yourself too much with it! A lot of KZbinrs feel like they have to do everything to keep to a schedule they thought they could handle but can't. If you feel like you can only get one or two (or no) videos done in a week because your home life is crazy, we 100% understand!

[@n8r8rutube]

I am a video game designer and I would love to see a series on video game puzzles! I love your videos and I'm excited to be able to watch more of them each week!

[@KingOfTheUnderdogs]

So much possibility, so much potential... It was a great channel, I am sad to see that it's no longer active. There's no other channel still that fills the gap this channel wanted to fill.

[@Daniel-ew9gx]

I can't say this enough Fleb, you are amazing and you deserve all the best! Congratulations to the little one, we're here whenever the videos appear :). Much love!

[@RomanCancelRulez]

Wait, so MORE puzzle videos from the wonderfully fascinating FLEB?! Answers: Yes, yes, and yes! I first discovered you through Reddit. You only had about 5 videos or so, but they were so interesting and well designed that I knew I had to subscribe. Your pacing, cadence, the little title splash you put in your videos before you solve them so that those who want to solve the puzzle on their own are able to do so; such care and thought was put into each and every video. My vote (several hours after your upload, so I do hope my words reach you somehow), is to keep your style the same no matter the puzzle type you choose as your video topic. I would ABSOLUTELY LOVE to see any other type of strange, quirky, or overlooked puzzle receive your insight! Keep up the great work and I truly do wish you the best in the coming years!

[@Shlafoutre]

Thanks for sharing your plans FLEB. I'm impatient to see the videos to come, especially videos about puzzle design.

[@Anaklusmos42]

As anyone before me, I'm also really excited to see all of that ! Keep the cool stuff comming, we all love that

[@Happyguy6666]

The more videos you make, the more videos we'll watch!! I'm eager to see them coming!

[@raresense8123]

The puzzles involved in video games sounds really interesting. Those are some of my favorite games to play, so learning about the design of them would be really cool!

[@FlameFlowerTheCat]

[@TheMrMorty]

Hey Fleb, just wanted to say I'm glad you'll be putting out more videos. You're a great youtuber with content that youtube is under saturated with. Keep up the great work!

[@Kilvoctu]

Hi FLEB, I've watched all your videos and have never mentioned that I really like your video editing. When cut, you still leave a natural pause between sentences. Many KZbinrs do frantic cutting, making me feel like I'm being pounded with an onslaught of words; this causes me to feel exhausted and I typically close those videos shortly after. Thanks for keeping a good pacing of speech in your editing. It looks like you understand that keeping a viewer engaged doesn't necessarily mean maximizing words per minute.

[@Waitatiri]

Congratulations for the newborn! Looking forward to your upcoming puzzle videos. Yours are my favorite so far compared to other youtube puzzle videos😁

[@ctbinary42]

Keep it up. You've introduced me to some puzzles I never knew of before. Thanks for all your work on this and good luck with the newborn

[@robertsavage5786]

I was into strategy games and I never really got into puzzles until I watched you now puzzles fascinate, love your stuff!

[@synoaponga7697]

Good luck on all the new content! I'm looking forward to the logic puzzles, those were my favourite growing up.

[@oliviab6415]

I love that you have a passion for this. It's so genuine and fantastic. I wish you luck and success.

[@christopherterrell6919]

I really like the commitment to growth. I look forward to the content you'll be bringing forward!

[@Joe-eh8mb]

All of the different puzzles you have mentioned are amazing... I got hooked on your mechanical puzzles, but ultimately I am a puzzle fanatic. So excited for the changes - carry on FLEB! And thank you for being such a great video maker. This remains the only KZbin channel I have ever subscribed to.

[@abejacubana]

I'm on board. I think it's a great idea to explore these other avenues. Can't wait to watch.

[@notreal77]

I love this idea. Your mechanical puzzle videos are always good and the fact that your branching out makes me really excited. Game puzzles especially interests me, and I can't wait to see what you put out next, since I know it'll always be amazing coming from you! ^^

[@Abruptleader]

You're amazing fleb. Thanks for the awesome puzzles and good luck with the kid!

[@0ThrowawayAccount0]

FLEB, you are one of the best people on KZbin! Congrats on the child! I look forward to the new ideas!

[@Monica-mf2vq]

I don't care too much about puzzles I just like to listen to his voice

[@kez4090]

The more Fleb the better, I'm excited for the new content, be good to hear your recommendations for the best puzzle type computer games you've played but I love the vids you make already!!!

[@shakedown2770]

Bring it on FLEB. We're here for any kind of puzzle you can throw at us buddy. Hell fkn yeah. You seem like a cool chill fella. I'd def smoke a joint with ya and do some puzzles Keep it happy and positive FLEB. And I'll keep liking and sharing and watching. Thanks for all the hard work buddy

[@emuwarrior13]

I really appreciated how you're taking a more structured approach to your channel to keep the various "genres" of puzzles organized. I'm looking forward to what's going to come and congrats on your channel growth!

[@ryantrue9372]

CONGRATS ON THE BABY FLEB!!

[@Znernicus]

glad to hear you are expanding the content of the channel!

[@JabaarTheZebra]

congrats on the kid, man! excited for the new content

[@gingerr8015]

Do whatever u feel man! Having guidelines is good but dont get burned out feeling obligated to keep that pace!

[@Gameboi834]

As a game design student and avid video game player, I would be floored to learn more about the history and application of traditional puzzles in video games, as well as puzzles that can only be applied in video games! I would love to see a series exploring puzzles in games such as Professor Layton/Myst and many Horror Games (e.g. The 7th Guest, Silent Hill, Resident Evil).

[@BigDBrian]

don't force yourself to do too much during every week -- you're setting yourself up for burnout or a decrease in video quality. I suggest, at the very least, that you don't go from one video a week straight to 4, but perhaps to 2 at first, later 3 once adjusted to 2, and finally 4 if you'll still want it by then :) Personally I enjoy all of your content, and you release new videos often enough already. Though more is better, don't rush it!

[@dkranda]

Congrats on the growth of the channel! I'm excited to come along for the ride.

[@PencilCase6B]

That's exciting, I'm looking forward to the new videos! And all the best for you and your expanding family!

[@captainm7722]

Yes. Yes to all of this. Especially history, games, design, and bios!

[@Morgiliath]

I feel like doing this you kinda fill a niche no one else really does, and I'm super excited to see what comes of it.

[@ryburks2758]

I'm excited for the new series Fleb!

[@AlineInGreen]

YO!! forgot how I ran into this channel but I love the direction it is taking. Cheers mate!

[@jwilder204]

Thank you, FLEB, I'd love to see more about Video Game puzzles. Thanks!

[@AttilaAsztalos]

Oh God, I'd love to see video game puzzles being part of this channel! They are the sole reason I keep playing computer games...

[@georgiivanov61]

4 times more FLEB? Amazing! I really hope you will be able to keep up with the extra work. But it should be worth it, your channel is getting bigger.

[@iceacamt6829]

Congratulations on the baby!!

[@LukeBonde]

I'm excited for the logic puzzles and brain teasers!

[@IguitarVreakI]

As a rookie DM for a D&D-campaign i would love to see a series on how to go about designing various styles of puzzles. could be amazing. More power to you FLEB!

[@mbiker345]

Look forward to it. Gonna be a lot of work for you though.

[@jacobkurtz4325]

Congrats on the baby dude!

[@JasonJayMusic]

Puzzles in video games is an amazing idea! Will be very difficult to get those out regularly though as you'd have to play through the games 1st. I suppose classic games like tetris wouldn't be too hard, but the more modern things might present a challenge. If I can make a suggestion for a game that has good puzzles (in my opinion) try "Limbo". I really enjoyed it and had to youtube the answers sometimes. Keep up the great content!

[@mrlefthand2348]

Jason Julies :)

[@seanthebluesheep]

One great logic puzzle from games I'd love to see you cover is the Zebra puzzle used in Dishonored 2, if you do a video game series. Partly because it's a great game, but also a fantastic contrast of a logic puzzle compared to the prior Clockwork Mansion level, that was very much a 3D maze

[@austinatherton6577]

Yes please, the more puzzles the better!

[@jonathanchavis7356]

Love your videos man. Maybe try and do things like this in one take. Hard cuts get really distracting after a while. Keep up the content! Excited about the new stuff!

[@devin_t4032]

I'm glad you're going to be pursuing more twisty puzzles. For that pesky 4x4x6 fisher cuboid it's going to take some progression for sure to get it. May I suggest this progression 3x3 3x3fisher 4x4 4x4fisher 3x3x4 4x4x6 4x4x6 fisher cuboid. You're going to get a crash course in all things parity related, multiple strategies for solving similar puzzles, and common algorithms and how they affect different variants of a family of puzzles. Good luck. pm me if I can be of any help!

[@TimTam69420]

more fleb is always welcome! dont burn yourself out though ;D

[@nochanceofmyname6615]

Quality, mate. I look forward to the new output. Cheers from the UK.

[@Kinkajou1015]

I noticed when I was at Gencon this past weekend there was apparently a puzzle hunt thing going on, I saw two of the puzzles. Maybe one day you can visit a convention with a puzzle hunt event going on and solve the puzzles and then after the convention post the videos with all the solutions and how you worked them out.

[@Kelis-melissa]

Keep up the great work Fleb! 👏🏽

[@nicochiesa]

¡You have a mate! I proud of you. Greetings from Argentina

[@franzjosephliszt1555]

I LOVE YOU FLEB

[@coolnoah8183]

I know that Id be more than happy to see further into the world of puzzles, so if thats what you wish to do then go for it because i know ill keep watching :)

[@martynsmith6279]

This is exciting! I'm very interested to hear your views and favourite puzzles from video games! Thanks for all wonderful content! 🙂

[@CH33K51408]

Maybe you could do a video or a series about the best point-and-click puzzle games?

[@ColinCharisma]

Keep up the great work FLEB :)

[@CharlestonAES]

Excited about more videos!

[@Imickskrals]

FLEB, you have a mate in your bookcase!! ("mate" as in the Argentinian drink, not "mate" as in Australia) You are so cool.

[@daviddemarta1188]

You're the man Fleb!!!

[@treverdefelice9684]

I can't wait!

[@LilyanaBoneva]

Looking forward to the next video! Keep up the good work!

[@TheKingdomdude]

I feel like we are getting closer to the super Fleb that solves zany crimes the cops cant figure out.

[@sungahn7386]

So excited!!!!

[@Satyamm3]

thanx Paul Hlebowitsh for the update...

[@katarzynaw4664]

I can't wait for logic puzzles ;)

[@deyaaalmasri339]

I'm looking forward to it

[@parkerjohnson4166]

Keep up the great work!

[@jbftcmof]

I think logic puzzles would be good at expanding the general audience for your videos because they go viral so often. I would also be interested in more puzzle hunts - sometimes I just can't tell what kind of clues and patterns people are supposed to pick up on. That said - Hooray more puzzles :D

[@realizeyourparadise]

Nice, looking forward to more content by you!

[@pauljustin9583]

Congrats for new born 😀 enjoy baby growth puzzle also

[@Aviraex]

More FLEB content is always good! :)

[@WalkerBikes]

Keep it up and great work! Great channel.

[@niamhcarroll2841]

I'm so excited ✨✨

[@sandraj.3116]

🎵 and I just can't hide it 🎵

[@yizharamir5915]

I really like the 4x4x6 fisher cube series!

[@weeksweeks9552]

Congratulations on yr newborn!

[@cameronmoe4627]

Exciting!!

[@Jeff321]

Have you done any escape room style board games? Wouldn't mind some videos on those. There are a slew of new ones lately!

[@talaveraleonardo]

Oh snap Baby FLEB!!

[@Blackcendre]

As a game designer, I would to see a video about classic real life puzzle that often make it into games.

[@jeremyfranklinross]

Love it! Boldly go!

[@Fhqwhgads86]

Congratulations on the newborn.

[@marcleeg]

Why did you leave Iowa City, Iowa?! 😥

[@McRawrzee]

What about some of those internet puzzles like Zahada or E.B.O.N.Y. where the answer to the current page is what you put into the URL to go to the next puzzle?

[@edderiofer]

The "put it in the URL" can be considered merely an answer-checking mechanism. The puzzles themselves tend to be assorted or hunt-puzzley, so I'd think if FLEB covered them, he'd put them under the puzzlehunt category.

[@MQ-xv2su]

Good news comes to those who wait.

[@skarsilverheart3238]

Puzzle hunt puzzles series would be awesome!

[@jeffreynorris6725]

Don't forget about jigsaw puzzles. You could live stream you doing on. If you don't have any, I have one that is a 100 piece puzzle of a dog wearing a police man's hat. Hopefully he doesn't have any poLICE. Ha. Get it?

[@abdullahmansoor1]

I'm writing a book about puzzles. It includes mechanical puzzles and twisty puzzles. I will like to know where can I find information about different twisty puzzles, metal puzzles, wooden (burr) puzzles and more. My goal is to educate people who love puzzles or people who are intimidated by them so they can get involved in the world of puzzles.

[@mrlefthand2348]

Since I talked to you (just now ) do I get a discount?

[@slendercaterpie]

I hadn't subscribed because it seemed like there wasn't enough content to warrant it previously, so I'm glad to here this

[@a84334656]

To here this huh

[@Yell0w_d0ggg]

Fleb, you're so lovely ❤

[@Faithra]

Hi Fleb, I love your content and always love to watch it as soon as I can when you upload! Have you considered doing a patreon? I'd definitely want to back you!

[@SoulSukkur]

your roster is getting pretty thicc

[@lenhister]

Skinny version of Shmee150

[@carpetlick5243]

A newborn? Will his hair look like yours?

[@at-smile]

I would love logic puzzles but don't beat yourself over it. Also yes brain teasers please.
