He thought that 10,000 was low odds, but it's actually likely to happen fairly quickly. This is because the only way to roll the dice for say the 500th message is if the previous 499 messages didn't trigger it. We can find the expected number of messages required for 50/50 odds of the stream ending by solving the following equation: P(🔨)^x=0.5 where P(🔨) is the odds of the message resulting in a ban and the stream continuing. (1-0.0001)^x=0.5 (0.9999)^x=0.5 log_0.9999(0.5)=x x=ln(0.5)/ln(0.9999) If stream ended before they posted a total of 6931 messages, then they beat the odds.

God, each message having the chance to completely end the stream is incredible, having that in every stream would be peak content.

[@iwannaseehowlongyoucanmakethis]

apparently, he accidentally left it on next stream.

[@0xEARTH]

4:29 Yeah, so the bot raid ban failing was my fault lmfao. As Mord said later in that section of the clip, when Doug's bot is active, he crashes our mod view. I had *just* enough time to enable Emote Only, not knowing he was gonna try and sick the eliminator on them... and then he tried to sick the eliminator on them, which crashed my mod view for like 5 seconds before I could turn back off emote-only lmao

[@sarahfeng]

"pity that doug born" really got me lmao

[@groofay]

This is just a straightforward demonstration that penalizing an action is not a deterrent.

[@ivorypayton]

Who cares about Doug’s birthday, what really matters is saying hello to Luka the editor

[@ApexBrachydios]

A great moment from a couple streams later: the stream crashed twice before Doug figured out that he left the code on that shuts down the stream

19:00 song is Lion's Rest, World of Warcraft Legion. Recognized it immediately.

[@NicNacNooNic]

The fact that this was happening while twitch chat was unknowingly playing fear and hunger just makes it better

[@lyepasta]

this was so much fun to watch, especially at the end, me and a bunch of friends were all messaging eachother like I'M STILL IN and IGOT TAKEN OUT BACK

[@blakksheep736]

6:49 gotta give credit to the person who got around the ban by saying happy birthday in chinese. 😆😆😆😆. "Shēngrì kuàilè!"

[@lightswitch2622]

Isn’t the last character supposed to be 乐 or is that traditional

[@blakksheep736]

Quickly editing the rule to ban the actual spambots was the absolute funniest part of the whole ordeal (4:07)

[@klouisi]

I feel like mothers and fathers should get presents on kids birthdays. The mothers pushed us kids out and our parents had to raise us to become the people we have became. For that I say parents should get the presents, or at least a hug and a kiss.

[@slifer4912]

I was dying at the thanos snap part. “Fourth time baby” Like idiot lool

[@funky555]

Im convinced Doug is an unfathomable eldritch creature that has infinite twitch chatters on demand.

[@voxfoxclips8684]

Twitch chat: (strikes against being banned for extreme and sudden changing rules by our local bear tyrant) DougDoug: Why is everyone striking? You're just going to cause a strained relationship between us... also '.' And 'strike' words are banned, now. No strikes! Me: *This place is a madhouse.* (Also the fact he banned his dad, too... and that ending. If that was the last episode, it'd make sense.)

[@DehydratedDarkness]

Nah, DougDoug's last Stream will be Something along the lines of: "I play GTA 8, but every twitch message has a 1/10000000 chance to turn off my life support"

The absolute chaos that follows this man…. I love it!

[@MimicalRL]

Dougs streams are basically just gambling on if you get banned or not and i love it

[@AlphaOrion98]

Good news: I am able to catch more streams live this year Bad news: this is the most dangerous time to watch Doug live

[@erddle3612]

PLEASE DOG MAN, DONT TAKE ME OUT BACK

[@Kyle-qi8oj]

Only a dougdoug stream could start out with a simple gag that ends with 99% of twitch chat getting themselves banned for the opportunity to end the stream

[@Mostly_Roblox]

Have an enjoyable anniversary of your date of creation (that makes it sound like Doug is a robot and I love it)

[@bimse420]

Twitch chat is just getting banned meanwhile the YT chat is hiding in the corner and wishing Dougdoug a happy birthday and Vive la révolution
