Let's Drown Out... Keep Talking And Nobody Explodes

[@SpazzyTheGeek]

"There's this thing I can only describe as a triangle headed man standing next to an H" ... 1/4th of a second later: "Got it". God, you are like a married couple.

[@TheLastThingWeNeed]

The ultimate test of their not-marriage.

[@bloodrunsclear]

Generally you don't want your bomb defusal team saying 'The manual keeps cutting to black!'

[@EmpressTiffanyOfBrittany]

+bloodrunsclear XD Honestly why I prefer books. They don't fucking crash because Reality Windows 10 is fucking shitty.

[@HarduntheRanger]

Sergeant Gabe and Inspector Yahtzee are my favourite homosexuals of the Yard.

[@rudyhero1995]

+Hardûn and even in the entire ward

[@Th3pr0gramm3r]

+Hardûn They bring all the lads to the Yard

[@Nexus42]

+Th3pr0gramm3r They can teach you, but they have to charge

[@MoonMoverGaming]

+Shadownet Spy you with indecent exposure.

[@Manabender]

Why the bomb exploded around 16:00 : There was a higher-priority clause that states "If there is more than 1 battery on the bomb and the button says "Detonate", press and immediately release the button." There were indeed a pair of AA batteries; you can see when he looks around for the lit CAR indicator. Why the bomb exploded around 27:00 : When describing the white light's position Yahtzee heard "2nd from the left"; Gabriel said "2nd from the right". This happened a second time, except he confused "3rd from the left" and "3rd from the right". Why the bomb exploded around 29:45 : You skipped step 2. Twice. Which is weird, because you did it correctly once... Why the bomb exploded around 33:30 : The obvious answer: Time ran out. The not-so-obvious answer: The maze they got required 24 steps. Why the bomb exploded around 36:30 : Memory is *evil*. Why the bomb exploded around 45:00 : Morse Code is *even more evil*. Why the bomb exploded around 53:30 : Wire sequences aren't evil if you know what you're doing. Gabriel, however...

[@Crusader1089]

I find it amusing that whether he is in the bomb diffusal position or the manual reading position Yahtzee assumes a dominate role over Gabriel.

[@talonpop]

It's to compensate for Gabe's dominant role in the bedroom.

[@Vegalyp]

Just remember the small dogs bark loudest. We know Yahtzee just tries to look dominant.

[@trebuh]

Gabe's a powerbottom.

[@JAWZxz]

+Vegalyp except small dogs don't bark the loudest? have you ever even owned a big dog wtf

[@RFC3514]

+JAWZxz - I've had an Alaskan Malamute that was literally big enough for a 12 year old to _ride_. He hardly barked at all (just made a very low "woowoo" sound). Smaller dogs definitely tend to bark _more_ (and have a higher-pitched bark, that can seem louder even when it's not, just like a baby crying can sound louder than an engine, despite outputting less decibels). Dog breeds have been shaped over centuries, and a small dog that couldn't even _alert_ people to danger was less useful. Bigger dogs were expected to deal with problems themselves, so they didn't need to be very good at calling in reinforcements. They certainly have the lung _potential_ to bark louder, but most don't.

[@willisverynice]

They successfully did a "Who's on first" puzzle, then completely forgot how to do it 10 minutes later...

[@Mechsrule1]

It wasn't 10 minutes, it was between steps 1 and 2!

[@Finbiff89]

Tonight, on Snarky & Butch...

[@paulo1ftw]

+Finbiff89 hahaha

[@---cy5gh]

+Finbiff89 This is great and you should feel good

[@Kingy9000]

+Finbiff89 They should just rename this channel to that XD

[@1pieceisdareasoniliv]

"We got what I can only describe as a triangle man standing in front of a capital H" Half a second later, "Got it" Goddamn that is impressive

[@malikoniousjoe]

lreinirz That whole sequence is incredible. You can tell how close two friends are when they rattle off " An A with a penis, Lambda, Triangle Head, Backwards C" and the other is like "Gotcha" without a second's hesitation

[@trolleymouse]

"Munted" is a word I need to hear more often.

[@Zeluthor]

"A with a penis, lander, triangle head, backwards C." Possibly one of the greatest set of instructions spoken by man.

[@Audiojack_]

+Samuel Mabey It's "lambda", not lander. It's one of the greek letters.

[@Zeluthor]

+Audiojackful realised that as soon as I posted it. Clearly my phone isn't well versed in Greek letters. Nore my 2am brain at picking it up.

[@safe-keeper1042]

He missed the opportunity to call the opposite C a boob.

[@Ylatch]

The Memory module is fucking brutal

[@Nexus42]

+Ylatch It's easy if you write the labels and positions down as you do them.

[@AntonAdelson]

+Ylatch Not really if you someone has a pencil and paper handy...

[@AntonAdelson]

***** WHAT? Explain please!

[@Nexus42]

Anton Adelson He means that it's intended to help you train your short-term memory. If you don't write it down, you'll gradually start to get better at remembering the labels and positions on your own.

[@AntonAdelson]

Shadownet Spy Ahh... Silly me, and I thought I'm just intended not to blow up ^_^ Peace.

[@MisterVercetti]

"If Gabriel keeps talking, EVERYONE explodes!" Definitely the useful life lesson of the day.

[@Danloadable]

The little laugh after the 'Detonate' incident.... I can't help feeling that Gabe was getting revenge for all of the false advice during Dark Souls 2

[@slarti-bartfast7614]

I'm quietly impressed by how well Gabriel did, and by how calm and collected he remained. For a man who can waffle for Australia and say nothing, he can direct with an exact precision. Who is this new Gabriel?!!

[@MoonMoverGaming]

I'm tech support, and this game looks way too much like work for me to ever consider playing myself. "Okay, is the bomb plugged in and powered on?"

[@malikoniousjoe]

Moon Mover I worked IT too, and truth be told, at least when things fuck up here you don't have a client to complain at you anymore haha

[@EHKOS]

Gabe is going to be a teacher. This thought scares me more every episode.

[@donnydarko47]

lol this

[@TheBiffJohnston]

+EHKOS Vaklam Think back to the dumbass teachers you've had in the lower grades and rethink that.

[@OdaSwifteye]

+TheBiffJohnston It's all coming together. This is why our education system is fucked.

[@Zidana123]

+EHKOS Vaklam "Those who can't, teach."

[@BodallaGaming]

+Zidana123 Those who can do were taught.

[@spoonfairy1723]

"This man want to teach our children" Fucking golden quote after getting killed Yashtzee

[@Firestar4041]

Here lies Yahtzee #1, Yahtzee #5, Yahtzee #Blue, Yahtzee #91, and Yahtzee #Q, he was my favorite. All blown up by the evil evil Gabe. Speaking of which, here lies Gabe #7, and Gabe #Two, blown up by the handsome and dashing Yahtzee. May their drunken angels sing thee to thy rests.

[@RS250Squid]

I spent what felt like a short while listening to my two favourite bomb fiddlers, and before I knew it, 55 minutes had gone :D. Not a lot of drowning out in this one, but definitely one of the most fun ones :D.

[@OmegaSoypreme]

This is actually really damn exciting. What a clever game.

[@HORRIOR1]

"Switch places!", Alice in wonderland really could have used some bomb defusing XD

[@100lincolns]

I would watch a whole series of just this. I don't know anyone else would want to but I would.

[@glitchysage]

Anyone else see the vowel in the serial code and was like "Yahtzee you fool!"?

[@Zeluthor]

Was a great "wait for it... " moment

[@BodallaGaming]

+Joseph Dipalo That doesn't work because autistics are actually very intelligent with numbers and sequences.

[@mattk750]

I did!

[@smellyeri]

Yahtzee: "I'm about to explode I think..." greatest last words ever.

[@rlrsk8r1]

When I first started this video, I thought they were doing two games: one called "Keep Talking" and another called "Nobody Explodes." Fun stuff.

[@PonyusTheWolfdude]

Kind of a moot point... -Yahtzees final words.

[@Thylonicus]

Gabriel's accent seemed to have thickened as he took over the bomb-defusal. I find that interesting, and amusing.

[@SeraphRyan]

Generally if a button says "Detonate" you dont press it ^.-

[@ZackRToler]

+SeraphRyan That's what the bomb maker WANTS you to think

[@MegaHungryNinja]

Advise for life.

[@juancariasr7932]

+luke bryer Maybe he just has fun watching people panic while defusing them.

[@wetrellk5304]

+ZackRToler I mean it did detonate the bomb

[@EmpressTiffanyOfBrittany]

+just a cat IKR where the fuck is this guy getting his bombs made that they're all bloody uniformly solvable.

[@CyricZ]

PDF won't load. I imagine having the foresight to actually download the PDF, or horrors, actually *print it out* never crossed their minds. :-P

[@EHKOS]

+CyricZ That made me laugh. I hope law enforcement doesn't rely on an internet connection irl. "Sir, we can't connect to the Wi"-*BOOM!*

[@nicolasjamo]

+CyricZ Yeah but having it on screen is easier to search, (Ctrl F), but printing it out will cause minutes of looking through and losing pages.

[@frederf3227]

+CyricZ Chiyo-chan would have at least saved the PDF offline so it didn't stream.

[@TheTaleForge]

+CyricZ Oftentimes even when downloaded large PDFs will have some loading troubles.

[@Doktor_Jones]

+Nicolas Jaramillo But printing brings you an authentic experience :D

[@Vic2point0]

Okay, totally lost it during the whole "Dot dot dot dot" "Wait, are we-" "DOT DOT DASH DASH DOT" "Okay, um" *"DASH DASH DOT DOT"* part.

[@megamegapop12]

How would you do it?

[@Vic2point0]

Nicholas Nolan Oh I'm not saying they did anything *wrong,* just that it made me laugh. It was like Yahtzee was just powering through and Gabriel was trying to get him to slow down or something.

[@megamegapop12]

Vic 2.0 Oh I got you.

[@a.lampman2165]

+Vic 2.0 Yahtzee was adding extra dots and shit. I died inside. Like he said "Dash dot dot dot dot" after "dash dot dot" so many times. I'm still physically pained.

[@howell2010]

I'm glad SOMEONE finally called it a lambda. I mean, if Half Life is such a popular game then why on earth does no one recognize a lambda?

[@AntonAdelson]

+Howell2010 I'm still waiting for a letsplayer to recognise a capital psi

[@zeemod1556]

+Howell2010 Half-life is the only reason I know what lambda is. But not everyone is gonna play the game no matter how popular it is.

[@KiraZeroYamato]

+Howell2010 Because most people can't make the connection between a greek letter and it being used in a video game. I mean most people can't figure out that the common symbol used in Megaman X is a Sigma, even though the main antagonist is named Sigma. So yeah.

[@howell2010]

+Zeemod155 See, I was never a half life fan. It's an alright shooter but it never did anything for me. And I still know what a friggin lambda is from half life because it's been all over the fucking internet for decades.

[@AntonAdelson]

I also know Lambda from Half Life. I don't even remember how I know it's called lambda anymore. (I played HL originally when it came out)

[@berndberndsen5680]

Not a lot of drowning out in this episode, is there?

[@LiquidShamanMan]

Gee, its almost as if they should change the name to lets PLAY

[@bkiffter]

Also the drowned out how "Who's on first" works at around 29:30, after already having beaten it before.

[@theoriginalzeotcho2432]

I feel like this is to make up for all the drowning out they're doing in Dark Souls 2. They probably don't have much to drown out about while that series is going on. I honestly don't mind them just playing a game for my amusement, especially one like this that emphasizes communication and teamwork. I wouldn't mind if Yahtzee and Gabe did a whole cooperative Let's Play series with them actually talking about what they're playing. Maybe Yahtzee could record him and Gabe playing the multiplayer games he reviews for Zero Punctuation. They really do have a good rapport.

[@ChaoticPesme75]

+Zach Holtz Regarding the multiplayer idea, I don't think it could ever happen. Yahtzee reviews a multiplayer every 6 months and australian Internet being what it is that would be too much of a hassle.

[@Thylonicus]

+Zach Holtz Gabriel had actually advocated for that very thing before, but--unsurprisingly--Yahtzee either shot the idea down or simply ignored it.

[@mark23a]

The last words you will ever here if Gabe is helping you, as the explosion rips into your body is the usual sentence "Well it's not my fault...."

[@GoblinClown92]

"Do you have a mother waiting for you?" "No, I have a husband...I'm turbo gay" lol, I squirted my coffee out of my nose.

[@0waka]

I love how Gabriel blames Yahtzee when he just didn't listen to the several times Yahtzee gave him the same information!

[@1000yearswordling]

This isn't drowning out, this is playing with intensity.

[@trevor5933]

Damn it! We already gave Yahtzee the gold pocket watch at his retirement party last night. Its a shame we can't return it now...

[@Bosinicus]

"imagine a 6, but someone sat on it"

[@theblackwidower]

I think it's clear Yahtzee doesn't own a printer.

[@RockOn398]

"This man want's to teach our children" made my day LOL

[@talonpop]

"You got a momma at home, Officer Buttercup?" "No, her husband. I'm turbo gay!"

[@fds7476]

You know what they say... if you see a bomb technician running, follow him.

[@danielschroedinger2090]

They also say: not every man running with a bomb and a detonator in his hand is a technician ;)

[@Finsternis..]

The problem with people playing this game, IMHO, is that people are playing it with a on monitor pdf. It misses the tensity you would get from rushed and paniced paper rustling by the person looking for the instructions for the respective module.

[@hairyson94]

+Die Finsternis Couldn't you just print it off then?

[@Finsternis..]

+Harry Weir Well yes. If I had friends who would play the game longer than 5 minutes before being frustrated I'd do that. But I was more talking about the playthroughs on youtube specifically. It's also not meant as criticism per se, more as an observation.

[@caboose309]

+Die Finsternis the game really isn't hard. A friend and I got fairly far on only like 6 hours of sleep between the two of us over like 48 hours. It's about communication under stress. Honestly the hardest thing for us was the morse code module because we don't know morse code and it's difficult to tell when it starts.

[@Caphalem]

+Die Finsternis Those pdfs sometimes takes their sweet time to load

[@trequor]

+Die Finsternis Achievement Hunters printed it off

[@Robert399]

It's pretty brutal that the timer starts running down faster after every strike.

[@tdcsguy]

Holy shit, that morse code module is like orders of magnitude more difficult than all the others. Yahtzee couldn't even read out the blinking pattern.

[@rinusluijk3514]

Gabe is gonna be a teacher. Oh, the humanity.

[@Slow.Learner.Devolution]

I would love you two to be an EOD team in a movie or something. This is quite funny

[@UndeadHavoc1]

Heh heh... got so nervous at 20:58, heeh... "So where's the white light again?" "Just to the right of the second green circle I just told you." "And where's the uh... white light?" "Very bottom left corner." Gabe got lucky xD

[@Renegadebane]

It makes me giddy every time they succeed and fills me with dread when they fail.

[@GunTraining101]

Gabriel literally wants to help guide children towards their best futures possible. If this video proves anything it's that those children are royally fucked.

[@isodoublet]

Gabe and Yahtzee switch positions more often than usual in this video.

[@Mirality]

Perhaps you should have printed the manual out instead of relying on the PDF version.

[@Egoangell]

Paper and ink are expensive yo!

[@kemonoautumnfall6331]

laser printer

[@sobranius]

I guess escapist pay for games and not for ink.

[@VikingDrummerRob]

+sobranius I seem to recall an episode of LDO where Yahtzee said he doesn't get review copies, but has to buy them himself.

[@NickReffin]

+VikingDrummerRob He talks about it in ZP a lot, he's often talking about how he acquired that weeks game by physically going to a shop.

[@Hermaniac8]

Jesus, was pissing myself for a solid minute at the phrase "munted six"

[@ace5762]

Gameplay was a little hectic to get any discussion going, but this was a fun episode!

[@valkin15]

best part was the second time Gabe fucked it up for Ben, and ten seconds left Ben's last words: "I am about to explode..." fuckin lost it XD

[@critterking2871]

Did Gabe say "I'm in the naughty stool"?

[@doomfeast1102]

Their descriptions of Glagolic and Cyrillic letters are just pure comedy gold.

[@schiz0phren1c]

this is one of the best drown outs,Yahtzee and Gabe are a funny pair of defusers

[@esek308]

The communication aspect of this game is hilarious. "Now go up four times" *tk* *tsk* *boom* "...Alright"

[@ZILOGz80VIDEOS]

48:37 thats is probably the best expression of relief I've ever heard.

[@afgncaapthegreat2706]

Just started playing this last night. Best. Game. Ever.

[@Togerax]

+AFGNCAAP the great Agreed!

[@Runie549]

Yahtzee: "I have a bomb that Gabriel can't see, and Gabriel has a bomb diffuse manual that I can't see. So we have to work together! I have to describe the bomb, and he has to tell me what to do to diffuse it! :D" Gabriel: "Oh Jesus." I lost it XD

[@NoSwear09]

I think Yahtzee is one of the few that actually know what the λ sign is called.

[@SpydersByte]

+Wicdz I hope not. Considering it's relationship with Half-Life I think quite a few people know about it. Of course there are also people who just know plenty of greek letters on their own from general knowledge... or maybe because they were in a frat :/

[@frederf3227]

+Wicdz But oddly not psi. That "munged 6" was either a lower case delta or that Cyrillic one. I'm darn surprised that someone who has published a book doesn't know the paragraph symbol. Double dagger (puzzle piece) is pretty obscure too.

[@brodericksiz625]

God I love Yahtzee and Gabriel interacting, they're a blast!

[@MCCanaryVideos]

for a channel about being soothing and boring you managed to make bomb defusal soothing and boring I congratz both of you

[@Spookynoises125]

My favorite part of this game is the shorthand people come up with and rhythms people get into. Mostly this is for the Symbol game such as what gabe called the squashed 6, or the capitol A with a dick.

[@DannOfSteel]

Munted Six is my new musical project.

[@AncelDeLambert]

I remember Penn Jillette talking about this game. And how awesome he was at it when he was on the pdf.

[@Gunman610]

Even though this game is tailor made for KZbin, there's nothing to spoil. If I had a laptop, I'd definitely get this game.

[@dark-ambition]

FINALLY SOMEONE RECOCNIZED IT AS LAMBDA!

[@Marblez3]

This is going to be a shitshow. And I can't wait.

[@danielt6856]

just finished my hsc, and I stayed up late watching this; the combo of lack of sleep and bang sound effects is gonnaaa keep me up a bit longer Solid video though!

[@taffowst]

4:20am and cannot sleep for the life of me so hoping yahtzee's dulcet tones ease me to sleep. only drawback with this plan is this video is too entertaining to miss...

[@endre54]

I lost it at "Well, kind of a moot point." *boom*

[@whatfor5]

Yhatzee is definitely the worse of the two at this. While he should be calming and collected, instead he is angsty and confrontational. Gabe is, thankfully, comparatively unflappable. Two Yhatzees, as if the universe could take such a thing, would be disastrous here.

[@noonie6872]

+Whatfor5 Yes, but Gabe is about as dense as block of cement, of course he's unflappable.

[@djpheeze]

+Whatfor5 It's like some sort of ancient Greek punishment for Yahtzee - a game based entirely around taking instructions from someone he normally always tells to shut up...

[@HyperNova1234]

Because one has a huge but fragile ego, and the other has a small but hardened ego. But that's what makes them so adorable together.

[@heartbrony]

*"Huge but fragile, ...small but hardened"* I'm sure there is a joke somewhere in that wonderful comment of yours my friend. xD Thumbs up to you.

[@tehfoxxy9630]

Stress... the video game...

[@cameroncroucher8789]

I really enjoyed this video. You guys should do more things like this. It's hilarious.

[@rlrsk8r1]

Yahtzee wants to roleplay the SHIT out of this game. Gabe keeps having to shut him up. "What's your name Son? You got a wife at home?" "Yeah, uh we got Wires..."

[@rlrsk8r1]

+rlrsk8r1 Also, that "Morse code" is very badly keyed. It's hard to tell a dash from a dot, and the spacing is very strange.

[@MrPackerProductions]

Yahtzee and Gabriel even give Ahmed a run for his money.

[@shankybiscuit8109]

This is going to be Pure Gold.

[@TheOutlawMan]

How hard is it to say "4th column, 1st row"?

[@walfalcon]

I find it hilarious that Gabe got the 'A with a penis' and 'Triangle headed man standing in front of a capital H' so quickly.

[@KinzyKenzie]

37:50 I would've called that the Infogrames logo.

[@MrThewooter]

This video revealed allot about yatzee.

[@thospe-f8x]

As much as they like to bicker, they're one of the better-coordinated teams I've seen play this game.

[@Ravlar84]

this looks like a sweet drinking game, you guys are on point

[@Nixitur]

In Memory, the defuser absolutely _has to_ tell the expert what position and label they pressed. And, frankly, remembering all that is the expert's job. The defuser has enough to worry about and does not have the benefit of being able to use pen and paper. Well, I suppose they _could_, but I imagine it would be massively against the spirit of the game. Not to mention that telling the defuser to "press the button with the same label you pressed in stage 1" takes way longer than just saying "press 3" and then the defuser relays the 3's position.

[@aflhabalafhabab]

R.I.P yahtzee and McGaff Something - 2015 Killed by Nuke Bomb

ahh poor neglected douglas uppity!

[@yuridegtyarenko1528]

10.10 There was something so perfect about that moment. I practically expected a "Wa-wa-Waaaaaaaa."

[@DraggyBDragon]

Gabes first attempt at reading Morse-code "daaaat".

[@NamelessBody]

The game would be much better if it wasn't module-based and had less gamey modules. Imagine Space Engineers: You build a ship that's rigged to explode upon flying, with a really complex mechanism. Defusing that is fun, because you really would have to explain to the person with the manual where everything leads and goes - it'd take an hour, and you'd have to go without a time limit (or a long one, or one that isn't enabled at start, or one that can be disabled independently of the bomb being defused)... Win condition would be to get the ship into a hangar without explosion, without knowing at first what will trigger an explosion. Accidentally removing core elements of the ship would also be a fail state. ... I'm going to make that now.

[@joet.s.6283]

The most amusing part is that there is absolutely no Drowning Out being done in this Drowning Out video.

[@trisymphony]

Since everyone is dead now, see you in Lordran/Drangleic in a few days.

[@ikkeheltvanlig]

Morse blinks twice. Dotdotdotdotdot lolololol

[@robwilkinson146]

One of the best ones in ages. As with the FTL vid I think this works really well when Yahtzee and Gabe are forced to cooperate on something rather than just bitch at each other.
