WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.720
Now that the judges have seen everything and our teams have talked, we finally get to see each other's rooms.

00:00:04.720 --> 00:00:07.920
Yeah, I'm kind of excited. Welcome to the Vibe Zone.

00:00:07.920 --> 00:00:14.640
Oh, Mike, they're so similarly named. Oh, wow, oh, wow, oh, wow.

00:00:17.280 --> 00:00:21.360
This is, where did you get the phone? From a store.

00:00:21.360 --> 00:00:24.800
Okay, okay, all right, you can be like that, okay. Home Depot.

00:00:24.800 --> 00:00:28.800
Oh, really? Can you not wreck stuff?

00:00:28.800 --> 00:00:31.120
Oh my, oh my, okay.

00:00:31.920 --> 00:00:34.160
It's the same stuff that we lined the server room with.

00:00:35.040 --> 00:00:39.280
Did they go after you for only two cushions? We debated on this so much.

00:00:39.920 --> 00:00:44.080
I think we saw literally this couch. They got after us for our crack seat,

00:00:44.080 --> 00:00:48.480
being truly the worst crack seat of all time. Go ahead and sit on it. All right.

00:00:48.480 --> 00:00:51.840
Oh, wow. Yeah, there's a spring that wants to go right up your rectum.

00:00:51.840 --> 00:00:56.240
It really does. Yeah, okay. It's not as bad here, but it's a pull out.

00:00:57.200 --> 00:01:01.360
Oh, that's cool. So that's something. I am now 99% sure we saw this couch.

00:01:02.080 --> 00:01:04.640
Yeah. On play games? Yeah.

00:01:06.160 --> 00:01:10.400
No, no, go for it. Fraternals, go up, okay. Oh, I'm not gonna grab the other controller.

00:01:11.680 --> 00:01:16.000
All right, hold on. The move of going with a PlayStation,

00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:18.080
we knew because we heard the boot up sound through the wall.

00:01:20.000 --> 00:01:23.680
The move of going with the PlayStation was, I think, pretty smart.

00:01:24.720 --> 00:01:28.320
I knew there was no way you'd do it. So I knew it would be different.

00:01:28.320 --> 00:01:29.200
That was a good call.

00:01:31.600 --> 00:01:34.880
I hate dual shock controllers. This is dual sense.

00:01:34.880 --> 00:01:40.400
Sure, whatever. I just, the non, I don't even remember what it's called,

00:01:40.400 --> 00:01:43.920
but the thumb sticks in the same spot. Symmetrical design. Yeah, I don't like it.

00:01:43.920 --> 00:01:47.280
It runs nice. It sounds really nice.

00:01:47.280 --> 00:01:50.080
I heard you guys audio system, and I was like, well, we'll lose that category.

00:01:50.960 --> 00:01:54.560
Really? Because we were expecting audio to be a major strength for you guys.

00:01:54.560 --> 00:01:59.680
Yeah, seems like there was maybe something messed up

00:01:59.680 --> 00:02:01.600
with the balancing or something. I'm not sure yet.

00:02:03.680 --> 00:02:08.080
That's unfortunate. James was unhappy, and he was sitting in the prime spot.

00:02:09.440 --> 00:02:13.040
I was off on the side, so I couldn't hear it properly, but yeah. Yeah, I know.

00:02:13.040 --> 00:02:15.600
We're pretty happy with our sound. What are the stats on this TV?

00:02:16.160 --> 00:02:20.480
How much did it cost you? We paid 550 CAD plus tax,

00:02:20.480 --> 00:02:23.280
but we got a free sound bar that we sold for $100.

00:02:23.600 --> 00:02:26.880
So 450? Plus tax. In total plus tax?

00:02:26.880 --> 00:02:30.960
Yeah. What are the stats? 75 inches.

00:02:30.960 --> 00:02:35.280
It's 4K HDR, but it's trashed here HDR.

00:02:35.280 --> 00:02:42.480
It's edge lit on the bottom. Like we got 1080p blue rays of our movies

00:02:42.480 --> 00:02:45.920
because we knew that HDR was not going to be a major advantage for us.

00:02:45.920 --> 00:02:48.880
Right, yeah. Pearl Harbor.

00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:53.040
We were just trying to appeal to the film buffs. That's an actual film strip from the film.

00:02:53.040 --> 00:02:57.120
Cool, that's cool. This is kind of a cool little collectible. You can fly that randomly on Facebook, where?

00:02:57.120 --> 00:03:00.240
Atelize. Oh, what is that? Thrift store.

00:03:00.240 --> 00:03:03.120
Oh, cool. Okay. Yeah. I like the paint.

00:03:04.000 --> 00:03:08.160
Thank you. I don't like that. I hadn't actually looked up.

00:03:08.160 --> 00:03:11.760
What, our light? No, the sound panel's on the roof.

00:03:13.360 --> 00:03:15.760
From an aesthetic standpoint, I wouldn't have done it. Yeah.

00:03:17.440 --> 00:03:23.840
But from an acoustic standpoint, it was necessary. I wonder if your clap will sound that bad in ours.

00:03:24.640 --> 00:03:27.120
Because my clap doesn't sound that bad, but we have different sounding claps.

00:03:29.040 --> 00:03:34.000
I mean, there's almost no echo. That's what I'm going for. Oh, it just sounds really sharp to me.

00:03:34.000 --> 00:03:36.160
Well, that's probably a... It's supposed to.

00:03:38.720 --> 00:03:42.560
Cool, okay. Do you want to see a movie? We did, yeah, sure. Do you want to just look around?

00:03:42.560 --> 00:03:47.120
No, yeah, let's see. Because I mean, you know what a movie looks like. So we both went with, hey, we should probably put a rug down.

00:03:47.120 --> 00:03:51.440
Yeah. That makes sense. How casting couch did these rooms look at the beginning?

00:03:51.440 --> 00:03:54.720
Oh, it was bad. It was bad. The first thing we got was the couch.

00:03:54.720 --> 00:03:59.120
Yeah, pretty much us too. And I was like, no. There was a comment made where it was like,

00:03:59.120 --> 00:04:01.120
if this was black and leather, it would be bad.

00:04:02.240 --> 00:04:05.280
Yeah, yeah. You got a little side chair. That's cool.

00:04:05.280 --> 00:04:08.960
So you kind of got away from the two seat problem.

00:04:08.960 --> 00:04:13.840
Because I was talking about this, like, do we just do this, I think literally this couch, and get a side chair.

00:04:13.840 --> 00:04:17.600
And we decided to go for a actually much more expensive couch, but it has three seats.

00:04:17.600 --> 00:04:21.680
We got that for free. Nice. That's pretty good. Yeah. That's a nice chair to get for free.

00:04:22.640 --> 00:04:23.920
Also. Nice.

00:04:25.680 --> 00:04:28.160
The rule stipulated that we needed a working PC.

00:04:29.280 --> 00:04:32.320
There it is. It's not even plugged in.

00:04:35.120 --> 00:04:41.280
It's so light. Oh, what the heck? Well, the heaviness doesn't impact the functionality.

00:04:41.280 --> 00:04:45.840
No, I mean, if the rules said, yeah, if it, yeah, I mean,

00:04:45.840 --> 00:04:48.960
that's, it's part of the game. That doesn't actually bother me.

00:04:50.400 --> 00:04:55.840
Whatever. It works. I'm surprised you didn't like really try to hide it,

00:04:55.840 --> 00:04:59.760
like put it in there or something. I, you know what? We actually had it under the chair.

00:04:59.760 --> 00:05:04.960
And then we realized sitting here that the subwoofer and this empty corner were kind of developed.

00:05:04.960 --> 00:05:08.400
Yeah. Okay. Yeah, sure. Our cable. Our management is sketch.

00:05:08.400 --> 00:05:12.640
What is even happening? This is just pieces of the shelves that used to be inside here.

00:05:12.640 --> 00:05:16.880
Yeah. And do not bump the TV. Whatever you do, do not bump the TV.

00:05:17.440 --> 00:05:21.760
What? What? Like, why isn't it just on its, wait, it is on its. We need the center channel under it.

00:05:22.560 --> 00:05:26.720
We 3D printed a riser for it last night, but the print failed.

00:05:26.720 --> 00:05:29.840
Oh, no. So we had to Jerry rig something.

00:05:29.840 --> 00:05:33.440
I like it. This is awesome. We got this. I'm assuming this is reclaimed.

00:05:33.440 --> 00:05:37.760
No, for free. Oh, really? Yeah. Wow. And then we put the acoustic paneling in it.

00:05:37.760 --> 00:05:42.720
No, it looks great. Yeah. Cool. We were all about sound treating the room

00:05:42.720 --> 00:05:46.400
because I feel audio is half of the experience for both games and movies.

00:05:46.400 --> 00:05:49.600
So the way that I saw it, audio was one third of the score.

00:05:50.240 --> 00:05:55.920
Sort of the mentality. The paint job is a paint job.

00:05:56.480 --> 00:06:00.800
Did they look that closely? Yeah, they probably only did because of you.

00:06:00.800 --> 00:06:04.560
You probably made that more difficult on yourself just due to reputation.

00:06:04.560 --> 00:06:08.400
Because when I heard you guys were painting, I was like, yeah, but it's like Linus, of course, he's painting.

00:06:09.200 --> 00:06:13.600
Yeah. Yeah. So what was your team name? We were the scrappers.

00:06:13.600 --> 00:06:17.760
Oh, I saw it. I read something vibe. No, no, I said our space was the vibe zone.

00:06:17.760 --> 00:06:21.520
Got it. I just made that up. We didn't agree on that with the team. Yeah, they're good with it, apparently.

00:06:22.400 --> 00:06:26.320
Nice. All right. Well, let's go. Well, what's your room called?

00:06:26.320 --> 00:06:29.920
Vibe Maxers is the team name. We don't have a specific room. Wow.

00:06:29.920 --> 00:06:32.960
They made the white walls work. Yeah.

00:06:32.960 --> 00:06:36.720
See, when I saw that you guys didn't paint, I thought you were boned.

00:06:36.720 --> 00:06:42.000
I was concerned about it until probably about 30 minutes before the competition.

00:06:42.000 --> 00:06:46.400
Modern art. Modern art. You love to see it. Two specification.

00:06:46.400 --> 00:06:49.840
I looked it up. There are specifics about how high it has to be off the ground.

00:06:50.400 --> 00:06:53.040
The only thing is it is technically a derivative work,

00:06:53.920 --> 00:06:57.440
legally distinct derivative work, because the banana is facing the other direction.

00:06:58.080 --> 00:07:01.440
Projector is a choice. It is a choice.

00:07:01.440 --> 00:07:04.480
It is a choice that I regret, but it is a choice.

00:07:04.480 --> 00:07:08.880
Yeah, no, it's a choice that I would have regretted too, but I've never used a projector before.

00:07:08.880 --> 00:07:11.200
I thought we would get a huge amount of the wall,

00:07:12.320 --> 00:07:14.160
considering how much of the wall we got.

00:07:15.360 --> 00:07:20.960
That was one of the mistakes. I thought one of the requirements was rental-friendly.

00:07:21.680 --> 00:07:24.800
Yeah, they won't notice. That is quite the hole in the wall. They won't notice.

00:07:24.800 --> 00:07:26.880
None of the judges noticed. Oh, my God.

00:07:28.320 --> 00:07:33.920
This is nice. This is nice. And guess what? Both of them combined was like $67.

00:07:35.200 --> 00:07:39.760
Well, it's not too bad. Hate to be that guy, but all of our acoustic material,

00:07:39.760 --> 00:07:42.880
plus the paint, was $79.

00:07:45.680 --> 00:07:50.640
That's not bad, though. It's not terrible. It's not terrible. You guys have enough stuff on the walls

00:07:50.640 --> 00:07:53.760
that it helps to break it up. I don't think it's as good as your guys',

00:07:54.880 --> 00:07:58.880
but the couch, the rug, all these other little things, it adds up.

00:07:58.880 --> 00:08:02.480
I'm surprised how much you guys spent on ambiance.

00:08:02.480 --> 00:08:06.080
Check out the... You've got three controllers. Damn.

00:08:06.080 --> 00:08:08.000
Check out the wires. Check out the wires.

00:08:09.280 --> 00:08:12.560
Yeah, that's also not particularly rental-friendly, but sure.

00:08:14.000 --> 00:08:15.440
It seemed to be that it was allowed.

00:08:17.120 --> 00:08:20.480
Yeah, interesting. Interesting fishing wire through the walls.

00:08:20.480 --> 00:08:23.920
We had an assortment of snacks in various areas.

00:08:23.920 --> 00:08:27.680
The idea was that you had the command position here.

00:08:27.680 --> 00:08:31.280
Sure, yep. So this area was in range of the receiver

00:08:31.280 --> 00:08:37.040
where the controllers get stashed, the 3D glasses for the 3D projector.

00:08:38.080 --> 00:08:42.400
That's not your PC, is it? Oh, it totally is. Oh, that's unfortunate.

00:08:42.400 --> 00:08:45.840
We benchmarked higher, which I'll explain shortly.

00:08:46.720 --> 00:08:50.720
Unfortunately, we didn't have time to deal with the cable management. No, we really didn't.

00:08:50.720 --> 00:08:52.320
That's a fun table. Have you seen it?

00:08:54.160 --> 00:08:57.680
Oh, yeah, yeah. I've seen these. One of those. It's pretty dirty.

00:08:57.680 --> 00:09:00.720
Oh, Coca-Cola machine. Okay, you guys...

00:09:00.720 --> 00:09:04.240
Honestly, yeah. Did better than I thought. I meant to clean the table.

00:09:04.240 --> 00:09:08.160
We forgot about that part. I think the judge has noticed. I hope you turned off the light

00:09:08.160 --> 00:09:11.280
when they were watching movies and playing games. We did, but then they turned it back on

00:09:11.280 --> 00:09:14.480
and I kept trying to get them to turn it off, but they wanted to see it with it.

00:09:14.480 --> 00:09:17.120
Yeah. It's part of it. That's unfortunate.

00:09:18.000 --> 00:09:19.920
Do you want the explainer for the computer?

00:09:21.200 --> 00:09:23.040
Let me see if I can figure it out. Sure.

00:09:24.240 --> 00:09:28.000
Did you guys just use like... You can ask how much it was. Maybe that would help.

00:09:28.000 --> 00:09:30.720
Did you guys just use a streaming service? We didn't use GeForce Now.

00:09:31.600 --> 00:09:34.880
But did you use a streaming service? For sure. Yeah, okay.

00:09:36.080 --> 00:09:39.920
That's pretty smart. So you guys would have been at 60 FPS in RDR2.

00:09:40.560 --> 00:09:44.320
No? It was not smart. It was a huge problem,

00:09:44.320 --> 00:09:45.920
specifically because of our office.

00:09:47.680 --> 00:09:51.120
Firewalls, networking and stuff. It's perfectly stable at my place.

00:09:51.120 --> 00:09:54.720
Perfectly stable at my parents place. Perfectly stable everywhere else I tested it,

00:09:54.720 --> 00:09:58.480
which was many places, including other areas of Canada.

00:09:59.360 --> 00:10:02.480
Not stable specifically here. It was stable yesterday.

00:10:02.480 --> 00:10:06.000
It was stable this morning. That is the drawback. That is the drawback.

00:10:06.000 --> 00:10:09.840
I accept it. It is the drawback. It's unfortunate that it's like

00:10:10.560 --> 00:10:13.680
decently related to our setup, but that doesn't mean

00:10:13.680 --> 00:10:16.880
that it wouldn't be decently related to someone else's setup. Yeah. So...

00:10:17.920 --> 00:10:20.960
It was a wise call to just turn off that light.

00:10:20.960 --> 00:10:24.800
We technically swapped the bulb, and the judges did ask you about that.

00:10:24.800 --> 00:10:28.160
We made it a little bit warmer. Yeah. But I did make a point of like,

00:10:28.240 --> 00:10:31.440
that's really not to be used unless you're like cleaning the room.

00:10:31.440 --> 00:10:35.680
Yeah, that's a good point. I like your shelves. We were going to do shelves,

00:10:35.680 --> 00:10:38.080
and then we ran out of time.

00:10:38.880 --> 00:10:40.480
Yeah, these were very last minute.

00:10:42.000 --> 00:10:44.480
We got slightly dinged because one of them isn't level.

00:10:48.080 --> 00:10:52.080
Little 3D printed battery covers. Nice. Also 3D printed thumb stick,

00:10:52.080 --> 00:10:54.240
which didn't get noticed. Nice.
