I've created the stupidest bot you can imagine to see if random inputs is better than Luigi doing nothing in Mario Party Superstars.

Hi there! I'm j0rts (Ben), and I like to explore mostly pointless things in video games while playing them in weird, unconventional ways.
Despite my name, this channel has nothing to do with jorts. In fact, I've never even worn a pair of jorts in my life. I just find the word fun to say... j o r t s.
Anyways, thanks for taking the time to check out my channel. If you'd like to hang out with me live, be sure to visit my Twitch channel over at / j0rts

Team Luigi or Team Randy?

[@PlayerPG3D]

Hmm i actually don’t know which team to pick

[@ethanlai7485]

Team randy because I like the name randy more

[@LinkTheOnePieceFan]

Randy, because waluigi is hot. Wait what I mean cool, definitely…

[@intellectualpencil7627]

Randy

[@GladiatorFromTds]

Randy 100%

[@EDoyl]

Waluigi wins by doing absolutely something

[@wafflepants3428]

Reminds me of Levelups video Waluigi loses by doing absolutely everything.

[@frostplays155]

Waluigi wins by doing... whatever he's doing

[@Neutral_Star]

Waluigi wins by being absolutely random

[@doctorreed_]

some of those 2v2 wins were FRAUDULENT. putting a normal human against a MALE GORILLA in a pizza-eating contest is clearly rigging the system. AND in that lava jump over the skewer minigame, they BOTH failed on the first jump attempt, which should really have been a tie, but then we again put the agility of a human against a gorilla. add both of those things with donkey kong WILLINGLY jumping into the hole in Pogo a Go Go, and we have an APE-SIZED CONSPIRACY on our hands!

[@j0rts]

Randy was DK's muse and inspired him to win those games

[@doctorreed_]

@@j0rts dont think that's all. of COURSE randy won the contest set up by HIS CREATOR

[@neoqwerty]

DK was looking for the bonus barrel in that hole, that one is all his own fault, he should have remembered that's NOT how you get bonus stars in a Mario Party

[@Mrstickthestick]

Randy was the one that was carrying

[@emerald_vixen]

I’m sure this has been said before, but for the team minigames (1v3 and 2v2) I feel like the whole team should have consisted of doing nothing / random inputs instead of having CPUs carry them

[@thepichumaster9354]

True

[@Thedarkbunnyrabbit]

I dunno, I think it's fair. The CPU are equal in skill/AI, and both teams have one who is doing nothing or randomness. It's an equal test. You could do a different test of 'what if the whole team does nothing' or 'what if a whole team does random things' but that's a different test than just one person.

[@thecreatorofpc7929]

16:04 Seriously, is NO ONE gonna talk about that? That was simultaneously really funny and also very horrifying.

[@Thecoolguy310]

I love how in some minigames randy actualy seems like hes trying and just never played

[@truncatedGrip]

so proud of randy! he was a LOT confused but he had the spirit :')

[@CowpokeScav]

He had the spirit to play all the minigames! unlike the afk Luigi!

[@Chicenk]

Since randy has a nickname, and luigi doesn't, I'm guessing randy is technically the player according to the system, so it's rubberbanding his teammate to win-

[@Spacebugg]

Both of them are probably the player. Unless theres an option to create a braindead CPU.

[@isyyc]

ngl i was going for luigi but randy is just funny for some reason

[@nicolascifuentes1318]

15:02

[@skarloey1214]

I feel sorry for Rosa and Donkey during the team games

[@montymole2]

if you're going to shorten "donkey kong" just call him "kong" because i don't think "donkey" sounds right on its own, since donkey kong is a gorilla lol

[@voiky752]

​@@montymole2 or just DK, stick to the old days

[@abigriffin9496]

I wouldn't say Randy won this, I'd say that Donkey Kong did.

[@TeknoThom]

Randy just ending it all on most of the minigames was honestly the best part of this. Had me laughing everytime

[@iau]

Sounds like the best strat is to just press A every once in a while. Should follow this up with "Wario wins Mario Party by randomly pressing A"

[@kenyon7619]

"The only way luigi wins is a tie" Randy: *jumps* "Randy wins!" The timer: *enough time for Randy to fall*

[@rageldith9600]

It could be interesting to see randy with an update where he can do more inputs per second

[@JuanpyStudios]

Well, all the inputs that randy can do are all you need to play every minigame

[@montymole2]

@@JuanpyStudios what they mean is for the inputs to be done in quicker succession. not more inputs lol

"Mashing's gonna be hard here" Randy: "no thanks" (walks off the side)

[@plushdragonteddy]

randy is just me and my friend as kids playing mario party 8’s “king of the thrill” over and over again just to jump off the platform because it was funny lol (and because we liked to be on opposite teams and force the remaining AI players to fight each other lol)

[@silveramyknux241]

Gotta love how Randy always goes against the rules.

[@Serch_YB27]

I mean, despite of fhe final results, I think Luigi's strategy had better results if you also factor in the effort they both gave.

[@elboz3460]

For some reason, Randy being Waluigi just fits and I find it funny

[@Drago_Whooves]

can you approve Randy's AI with the ability to do multiple inputs? like directional jumping

[@vraza14]

This video has learnt us one thing. If a minigame has a ledge, Randy WILL try to walk off it.

[@sansleskeleton4073]

15:11 wah-Luigi gets air

[@d4n737]

We are going to have full-formed personalities for the characters at some point Mario: Plays as intended Luigi: Does nothing and wins Wario: does everything he can and loses Waluigi: Does... something, that's for sure. Yoshi: Commits tax fraud

[@NaoshikuuAnimations]

Dont forget to code in input combinations (forward + jump, etc) otherwise this isnt a true random over your action space

[@shufflecat3334]

Watching this it is hard to say which one is a better metaphor for my life

[@ThunderCam777]

Randy and Luigi was definitely the best duel of this year, by far

[@Joseph_Drew_III]

Scores with Rosalina and Donkey Kong factored in: -If a team wins, everyone on said team gets a point Rosalina: 31 Uncertain: 28 Tie: 14 Donkey Kong: 33 Luigi: 17 Waluigi/Randy: 29

[@hydrusalphy4654]

It's the golden rule of examinations: Better to guess than to pick nothing.

[@matthewthompson5763]

I am genuinely curious on how long you sat there watching Randy run into walls for. A lot of the tie mini games where timed ones.

[@bandman7600]

Randy... What a weird name... I wonder why he picked such a random name... Me a minute later: 😮

[@JJ_R]

Team Luigi! Randomness is something, and you win more often by doing nothing!

[@alexcat6685]

You see this a meaningful discussion about the idea of how reality functions vs how you react, do be like Randy in having the life carry you in whatever direction you see fit or art you like Luigi who would rather stay we he is, sastified in this being his spot.

[@TheJ12345]

Ah yes, pure order versus pure chaos.

[@The_G.2]

8:04 “aight randy lets see those mashing skills… mash” Randy:bonk

[@YarnLalms711]

idk why, but every time Randy lost, I immediately thought of the Metal pipe falling sound

[@danielkutomi]

What if you try running two codes at the same time? So it may do two inputs at a time (like jumping and walking?) Them you can do a Randy vs Randy 2.0

seems like a fun programming challenge to try and create some system of weighted randomness that can beat randy. spaming directional jumps seems like a good plan.

[@DarciousMaluki]

[@JezElectro13]

Of course Randy is Waluigi in a video where he is rivaling Luigi XD

[@YuBeace]

Bruh, Randy in the spiky tube race (I forgot the name 😂) he really was NOT having it anymore.

[@LithmusEarth]

I would like randy to have gotten a point for getting further in the chomp hide and seek one, even though he didn't finish. You still count other mini games where one of them dies slightly sooner than the other, or does more of it even if they don't finish. just need to point that out. Give Waluigi the point!

[@LithmusEarth]

i know you can't control it but the ice hockey one in 2v2; the placement of luigi front and waluigi back makes a difference, have them both be goalie or both be forward.

[@NinjaLobsterStudios]

I'm guessing that there is going to be considerable disjoint between the mini games you can win by doing nothing and the mini games you can win by doing random presses (I mean technically random inputs can win any game but we don't have infinite time). Randy struggles with survival games (in particular games with no walls), but Luigi can't run off the stage if he can't run. If they combined their power they could probably win a lot more.

[@macmadness5932]

6:30 WHAT WAS THAT RACE L O L
