Imagine this: you go to see someone you haven’t seen in 18 years they go to shake your hand but before you do you stop them, Setup your camera and walk out just to walk back in and acted normal .
He could have called his teacher and asked him to set up a camera beforehand
or he had someone with a camera go in before him
You should've made fun of him putting a camera in the overhead bin on an airplane then putting his bag in and closing it, and then most likely opening it back up to take the camera out.
i would like but this has 666 likes
Thought the exact same thing
There’s absolutely no way your opponent will let you get away with an “or” question.
Light Treason exactly
usually what i do yo start with is say “does your person have any accessories” since that is about half
Thank you! I got into a huge argument at a sleepover in the early 90s because no one would let me ask the question "Does your person have any facial hair?" Everybody thought it counted as three questions and was therefore cheating.
Then you just lawyer them. The rules don't disallow "or" questions.
@@ddawn23 tf? i cant even imagine how they would THINK it was 3. I cant find any way to make that more than one
I like the alternate way to play guesswho where you have to ask abstract questions like "does your person look like they would enjoy tapas as a first date" - it's a genuinely funny way to play with friends.
want chiken nuggets
also surprising how well it works!
what wait this is great
100%. I call it “hypothetical guess who”
We called it 'character assassination guess who' and it was great fun
Claire was literally the WORST character to get! My sister and I would always hate that card because she literally had every “unique” factor so you’d lose pretty fast if you got her lol. The Claire card became the running joke in our house
as somebody named claire, i’m also a running joke in my house
@@cbear7996 Hit em with your Claire Bear stare.
@@andytheshark xd
@@andytheshark I hate this
@@cbear7996 both you and my cousin claire have the nickname clairebear-
My friends were ruthless, there's no way you could ask an "or" question without being killed
Same
Yeah. The rulesbook may not include it, but that's only because they probably assumed that kids would be smart enough to know that that would be cheating
@@ashscott6068 But its not cheating because that just means you have way more people to geuss between. If they asked a simple does the person have a hat, if yes then you eliminated everyone but 5. Thats why the "or" questions dont get you as far as you think
The Random King yeah but if they say no then you’re screwed
Other than the killing, your friends were actually normal, we didn't allow "or" questions either.
It’s been 4 years, they might have patched it
yeah, the OR questioning was part of the 7.3 patch lol
K
Not My Rodrick na they thought of it but they just leave it at 1.1 but other versions are updated
5*
update to ios13 you’ll see they did
"It's a random process but you do know the group will always look like that" - the teacher says this with such fresh and genuine fascination even though he's taught that perhaps tens of thousands of times. His unwaning passion for the subject he teaches is indeed super contagious, just like the one who made this video.
Lovely comment. Very true
I finished my Math Analysis class last week and never thought I would use it.
Watching this video and understanding all the terms was kind of rewarding lol

You must've been a nightmare student for most of your teachers! There's nothing more humbling than a student who is WAY smarter than you are. Unfortunately my son went through a school system that didn't believe in separating out gifted students. Consequently, he fell through the cracks because he was smarter than most of his teachers, wasn't challenged enough and lost interest in school. The public school system robs us of so many gifted students because they're more worried about stepping on toes. What a loss. So happy you made it through and I hope you work on making public schools a more nurturing atmosphere for those types of students. Thank you for all you do!
I played this with my daughter last night. Can i just say that the newer guess who boards are SO Much more diverse, and i wonder if they still stuck with the "5 people have a particular attribute" thing. it was pretty fun though
You mean racially diverse?

michakiri yeah
The teacher was so passionate. Just look at him while he's explaining. He's so enthusiastic about it.
My 12 grade teacher looked like he would commit suicide if I ask him a question again.
My 6th grade teacher once told a kid after asking for a textbook or something "YOURE WORTHLESS AND YOU DONT DESERVE ANYTHING"
Mind you this was a special ed kid.
@@billysbasement4498 sounds like a nice guy.
@@billysbasement4498 Jesus that must of really ruined that kid
@@SLOBBER62 well quarantine will save him now
my teacher would just say ‘you should have learnt this last year’ and last year’s teacher said you’re teacher will teach you this next year’ what bullshit.
98% of the time the other person isn't going to let you specify 3 things in a single guess, so it'll be hard to win with this strategy =p
It's technically within the rules, but I agree that it would get house ruled pretty quickly. I'm sure there's more subtle things which you can ask which apply to more than 5 people but no more than half, and that still improves your odds
I think it's a skill thing. You need to learn how to cover multiple categories without making it obvious that that's what you're doing.

Even worse is do you have a character.
I love how passionate and proud his teacher looked, I wish every teacher was like this!
Every teacher is, if you have 10 mio subscribers on CZcams….
Dude, mark rober became a mechanical engineer who worked for NASA.
I'm pretty sure the teacher would be proud by his engineering degree alone.

No one is going to play with you if you keep using "OR".

I wanted No to play with me anyway.
Then i guess I'll keep using "OR".

Nandita Menon they couldn't. If one person bought 96 percent of the total cards, any other person would have at max 4 lottery cards
Teachers dont make a difference.
Best line ever.
You can see how proud that teacher was to have taught him all he knows today.
It's pretty cool that he had such a great relationship with his teacher. Visiting someone after 18 years-- wow.

I like playing guess who with my wife with the obvious rule of not reusing questions. That turns really funny over several games when you get to questions like "does your person look like he would be banned from schoolgrounds"
Adkit2 that sounds very fun
Adkit2 your profile pic looks like it would be banned from school grounds
Ha! That's a good idea.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha x))
I legit failed math but fully understood and leatned from this- then again I found out I had ADHD as an adult and think that makes it all make sense because my silent tests were easy but classwork sucked. Either way this sort of learning really gets peoples attention 😁
+1 for teachers who make a lasting impact. I like teachers who are popular or make students want to keep in touch because of how well they taught the students.

"Each question must have a 'yes' or a 'no' answer". The combination of test conditions with an OR parameter linking them will ultimately always result in a final yes or a no. The way the rule is written suggests that the final answer being singular is all that matters, and that it doesn't matter if you combine a series of tests in the question to get to that answer.
Yes, Yes = Yes
Yes, No = Yes
No, No = No
No, Yes = Yes
...
... that's the definition of or? I didn't get your point
@@petermuller608 in my experience with programming logical functions, that's the definition of "or" when carrying out a series of tests.
If A, or B, or C, then PASS, means only one test needs to pass in order to proceed.
If A, and B, and C, then PASS, means ALL tests need to pass...
Rober is saying that the evaluation of A, B, C is one question with one answer rather than three questions,.
@@MyDanMo thanks for the explanation :) I'm not a native English speaker and thus might be missing your point.
But as far as I understood Rober's strategy was to ask "does your person have white hair or glasses" would yield yes iff the "person has white hair" is yes or "person has glasses" is yes
Thus you are agreeing with how Rober? Or are you commenting on the difference between or and either or?

I’ve watched this video countless times and I still can’t remember what the answer was
I know it's not in the rules but "or" questions weren't allowed when we were kids, because it was more like asking two questions and that just led to arguments.
It's not quite like asking two questions because if you get a 'yes' then you haven't narrowed it down as much as if you asked about both attributes separately.

Wouldn’t it be inaccurate to use a bell curve to represent your strategy since it always guarantees a win within five or six guesses exclusively when done properly? In that case, the distribution between number of guesses to win wouldn’t resemble a normal curve, but instead be a single split probability between two outcomes.
Yes, although I think you could technically represent that as a bell curve with an average of 5.5 and a standard deviation of zero. The simulations are could to test out how many guesses it takes with a 'normal' strategy
I’ve watched this video many, many times and I still have no idea what the special strategy he’s using is
