Wait, can I have a little more context? I don’t know the connection between this song and Super Mario

[@arvidbergman]

@@lrgogo1517 On the first episode of the second run through Super Mario 3D World on Friends Without Benefits, a Let's Play channel Jacob used to be on with some friends that's still around, they had forgotten to actually _install_ the game before they hit record So while waiting for an hour they just did a bunch of random stuff like have Jacob play the guitar to pass the time, which included him *trying* to play the To Be Continued riff

[@Reisen_Inaba]

Seeing you call it To Be Continued kind of hurts me It's the start of Roundabout by Yes

[@arvidbergman]

@@Reisen_Inaba I know There's no group of people that I like to frustrate more than 70s rock fans

Alpha's metamorphosis into event coordinator is hilarious and I'm excited to see where he goes from here

[@PokePrinny]

He went from a professional gamer to “You’ve encountered a wild game show host!”

[@KyunaCookies]

honestly he always had that vibe, and now hes actually got the methods to fulfil it

[@IAmIn_Constant_Confusion]

I really like it, his videos were funny before but this is a mr.beast level of commitment stupidity and I love it.

[@angeloid_]

Dash's antiperspirant joke was the best talent in this video. Can't believe he didn't win.

[@FerdinandvonAegir]

That's a hit.

[@PancakesTsuki]

Did u see Phils tho? It was so dramatic and I was shook

[@loganbreau882]

At some point he needs to do the opposite of his impossible escape room. He makes it super easy, and sets it up very similar where one group takes about an hour. It would be interesting to see if the other grouping try or if some of them would just think it’s an impossible room.

[@TransientLunatic]

He really SHOULD do a ‘who killed Alpharad’ murder mystery event though

[@TheFlashyLucario]

Making everyone paranoid of each other, only to reveal at the end that no one is a murderer and it's "suicide" xD That would be so evil and simultaneously fitting for Jacob

[@PoneryBugsnax]

Jaiden is like the coolest person ever. Imagine just whipping out minesweeper and destroying it in 35 seconds.

[@TheGreatestYouTuberOfAllTime]

The talent shown at 13:35 changed my life. Every time that I am going through hard, stressful times, I do this simple trick, and it reminds me that sometimes life isn't about all the details and the condiments, sometimes life is about the simple hotdog.

[@Im_JoeCool]

this is his villain arc, the hair, the name, the way he worded the invitation

[@KatZEdition]

Alpharad went from "Mario's foward facing arial attack is hilarious." all the way to "It's not a social experiment if you don't have a hypothesis or a conclusion."

[@thetwistedsavant5821]

When I saw Skooch I thought "He is either going to do something so stupid it's impressive, or he's gonna be drunk and pull something out of nowhere" and what does this psycho do? He steals the keyboard, hoodwinks everyone, AND DOES A BACKFLIP! A well deserved win.

[@CanalAleblasco77]

He's just a genius

[@cano727]

It takes a man of pure talent to achieve such greatness lol

[@grimmreaper5349]

"My talent, you see, is Misdirection. And now, aside from those two, I'm going to do something, that in the industry - (what indsutry?) - the breakdancing industry, we call a backflip - I could breakdance but I don't want to - and I'm either going to backflip really well, or go to sleep really fast"

[@MichaelCravith]

Taking the keyboard so no one else can use it. Based as fuck.

[@djtabor]

As soon as I heard Jaiden say "Let's flip a coin for double points" I got flash backs to the pokemon charity stream where she lost like 10 pokemon to coin flips

[@fedoraturtle6536]

I really hope the invitation literally said "Would you like to come to a normal ordinary dinner party with no ulterior motive?"

[@Average-Joe851]

Jaiden definitely deserve the win. Many people can do back flips but few can beat minesweeper in 35 seconds, outsmart αlpha Rad, and do this without any of props given to her. Edit: Correct the spelling of Jaiden
