I'm pretty happy with our light bulb, it ties it together. 600 00:24:16.140 --> 00:24:20.540 But actually, I think overall I'm just happy with how it all came together. 601 00:24:21.110 --> 00:24:25.850 I was doubtful yesterday morning, but I think we did good. 602 00:24:25.850 --> 00:24:31.650 Once Linus had painted and we got past the five hours where we couldn't do anything, 603 00:24:31.650 --> 00:24:32.650 it came together quick. 604 00:24:32.820 --> 00:24:33.920 Least favorite part of the room? 605 00:24:34.060 --> 00:24:36.760 Probably the fact that we weren't able to get rear speakers. 606 00:24:37.430 --> 00:24:41.360 And then just time; I think if we had more time, 607 00:24:41.660 --> 00:24:43.770 we would have been able to do a lot of stuff better. 608 00:24:43.770 --> 00:24:46.300 Our TV wouldn't be as rickety; 609 00:24:47.400 --> 00:24:50.740 our sound panels, we could have made them look a bit better. 610 00:24:50.870 --> 00:24:54.140 But it's scrapyard doors, you're made to not have time, so. 611 00:24:54.640 --> 00:24:57.550 Natalie: My favorite part of the room is probably the color; 612 00:24:57.550 --> 00:25:00.750 how it came together, the walls, the sofa is kind of bluish. 613 00:25:00.750 --> 00:25:04.820 And then the throw blanket that we have matches the walls. 614 00:25:05.520 --> 00:25:09.890 I think the least favorite part of the room is going to be the PS5. 615 00:25:10.060 --> 00:25:12.160 I think we could have done a computer. 616 00:25:12.160 --> 00:25:13.930 Other than that, I think that's about it. 617 00:25:13.930 --> 00:25:15.100 Justin: My favorite part is the vibe; 618 00:25:15.100 --> 00:25:17.930 it's kind of what I aspire my house to be at some point. 619 00:25:17.970 --> 00:25:20.400 I know it's basic b****, but I really like it. 620 00:25:21.840 --> 00:25:25.910 So, two things; and they're kind of like the biggest things of the whole project, 621 00:25:25.910 --> 00:25:26.880 in my opinion. 622 00:25:27.610 --> 00:25:28.580 Wasn't a fan of a projector. 623 00:25:28.610 --> 00:25:33.550 I don't think spending $800 on a projector was a wise choice, it was a lot. 624 00:25:33.550 --> 00:25:38.090 Like it has 3D and everything, but our movies that we had selected, 625 00:25:38.890 --> 00:25:43.360 they weren't 3D capable; so there was literally zero point with us going to 3D projector. 626 00:25:43.360 --> 00:25:47.060 So we probably could have saved $200 honestly, if we still wanted to do a projector. 627 00:25:47.530 --> 00:25:52.300 And then the other thing I wasn't a huge fan of, but I guess it works, 628 00:25:52.300 --> 00:25:58.370 is we got like a thin client PC; and then ran a remote VM for running our games. 629 00:25:58.410 --> 00:26:01.910 Which, yes, it works; it runs at a decent frame rate. 630 00:26:01.940 --> 00:26:05.880 But the latency with the projector, on top of game streaming, 631 00:26:05.880 --> 00:26:08.120 with control- Xbox controllers. 632 00:26:09.420 --> 00:26:12.450 Like, if you're trying to play anything that's remotely precise, 633 00:26:12.450 --> 00:26:14.760 it's just, it's just not going to do it. 634 00:26:14.860 --> 00:26:19.700 Sammi: I think our group, the best thing and the worst thing is that we're very independent. 635 00:26:19.700 --> 00:26:22.330 And we're very much like, work in our own corner. 636 00:26:22.330 --> 00:26:24.630 Okay, tell me what you need me to get done. 637 00:26:24.630 --> 00:26:25.900 Okay, I'll just get it done. 638 00:26:26.030 --> 00:26:28.900 And then, like, I'll do my part; trust me that I'm going to do my part. 639 00:26:29.300 --> 00:26:32.670 Like I mean, I was stressed earlier; but I didn't- 640 00:26:32.810 --> 00:26:36.310 Like, if Dan said something was good then it was good. 641 00:26:37.080 --> 00:26:39.050 If Luke said something was good, then it was good. 642 00:26:39.050 --> 00:26:41.320 If Justin said something was doable, it was doable, you know? 643 00:26:41.320 --> 00:26:46.590 Like, I had full faith in them to get their part done. 644 00:26:46.620 --> 00:26:50.360 I think I would have... I mentioned this before, like, done something- 645 00:26:50.430 --> 00:26:52.660 Because I was mostly focused on vibes and also just like, 646 00:26:52.660 --> 00:26:54.930 helping other people get what they wanted. 647 00:26:55.030 --> 00:27:01.070 I think one thing I would do is probably make things a little more personal, 648 00:27:01.070 --> 00:27:02.340 like, vibes wise. 649 00:27:02.440 --> 00:27:05.270 But in general, I think one of the things our entire team didn't do 650 00:27:05.270 --> 00:27:11.410 was we forgot that we could pick up after work; so before 9, after 5:30, 651 00:27:11.410 --> 00:27:14.380 we could still do pickups, we just couldn't put anything together; 652 00:27:14.380 --> 00:27:16.050 and we didn't use that at all, 653 00:27:16.050 --> 00:27:21.990 and I think I could have done some of that a little bit during the first two days. 654 00:27:21.990 --> 00:27:24.030 But, you know, it ended up working out. 655 00:27:24.590 --> 00:27:27.730 And there were also things that I couldn't pick up until yesterday, 656 00:27:27.730 --> 00:27:31.600 because we didn't have a final decision on like, 657 00:27:31.600 --> 00:27:33.570 whether we were going to need more money or not. 658 00:27:33.570 --> 00:27:36.670 So yeah, I was kind of limited on budget there.
