Scam School hi
I owe you a dollar now
I miss old school scam school
For the third one. I thought the dead was extra because none of the words had 1 letter 2 times. Only DeaD had the letter D 2 times
Same here. 😀
PandaGirl2112 Me too.
Mercury has two r's?
SAME
+brandon rios But "Fast" Doesn't. The associated word. I also noted that dead was only word with repeat letters.
Got the second one nearly right out the gate. I am elated.
same
He's definitely right about them sticking with you. I watched this video years ago and forgot I saw it until 5 minutes in. I had already figured out all 3, and thought they weren't that hard. Then I remembered, I'd seen it already. I already knew the answers! Even subconsciously, these puzzles stuck with me!
WAIT! My answer to the last one is that each word has no letter that appears more than once, except for dead, which has two d's.
Got it: Something something "wahh," something something "I clearly didn't notice that last week's show was an awesome magic trick."
...I'm on the case.
I thought the last one had to do with the fact that the word "dead" was the only one that used a letter (d) twice.
So did I
Steve Sharp I did as well but who cares
I love this channel! I can spend hours each day just watching all these awesome tricks:D
2:37 - Is it just me, or are the 2 and 5 backwards?
LOL. Your right 😂
+Sphee hood (Sphhood) no they arent backwords but i do believe the 6 is done incorrectly
+supernerd1212 On the paper it is backwards, on the graphic it is right.
+WillRennar you are right i didn´t even see that
WillRennar they are
i'm glad he changed his hair
The last one I never ended up getting until you explained it, but the first two I had before you were done with the explanation! :-D
love your show brushwood,two thumbs up man!!
thank god u got rid of that 90's freakig hairstyle
+Diptanu Chaudhuri **sigh** i.imgur.com/91sn32Q.jpg?fb
+Scam School I miss the spiked hair :/ any chance of bring it back at the near future?
I missed it. I watched this like 2 years ago and loved it. This hair style is also awesome so I'm fine either way so I guess I'm not missing it? But I'm fine with it coming.
Stegosaurus hair?
I actually thought that the answer to the first puzzle (with the caclaor display) was that it spells out "NEW DOOR"
same
so did I
The first one didnt even take me 10 seconds its so easy even a kid could see it. The second one was sneaky, i got after a minute of rearranging the letters. The third one was just amazing. My train of thoughts (before watching any hints) to get the answer was exactly the same as how the hints flowed. Elegant
Nice. Dude's drinking Shiner Bock. One of my favorites. Gotta love the Darker/Amber stuff.
I'm coming from the future, where Pluto is once again considered a planet and we have discovered gravitational waves
+Neo_metallum1618 Scroopy Noopers?
+Scam School R&M!
Waiting for Pluto to be reconsidered a planet, as gravitational waves have been discovered early 2016 :)
Dead is the only entry with repeating letters.
axelasdf that's what I thought to
the one word one was so obvious XD i love it
It's good to rewatch good old stuff from Scam School, now that you're involved with Modern Rogue :)
I have a quiz.
Lamb, Nutcracker, Pancreas, Burkina Faso, Bespoke, Polished.
uhhh... answer please?
There is a fail, on the paper
Look to the first quiz with the number
Look close to the paper at "3:52" and at the screen "1:24"
Why are you, speaking like this, when you don’t, need to do this?
I freaking love this show
Best freaking part of the week! Since I live in Sweden I pretty much wake up to a new episode of Scam School every wednesday! I remember when I started watching the show about 3 years ago, and I have pissed of my friends so many times now I lost count! Thanks for the best show on youtube Brian (and ofcourse the rest of the Scam School crew) :D
and i thought i was bad at giving hints.
How the hell can we solve the first puzzle if the symbols on the paper are different from the symbols on the graphic? Which is right?
You were supposed to pay attention to the one on the graphic. That was there for us. Apparently the one on the paper was wrong. So yeah definitely the graphic.
I just past the setup for the one word one. It gave me a little chuckle.
I didn't recognize the HUGE hint when Brian was talking about the calculator problem. "You think of a digital eight" lol great hint.
why is the youtube layout different for this vid?
ik its weird
Isn't the 2 and 5 reversed on the 7 segment display?
no
yes, in his original write up it was..
That's what makes the scam so good. You might have to sacrifice buying your mark one beer for getting that but the other two will drive them crazy and then you get two beers. The easy one gives them a confidence boost and makes them stay to try get the others.
I know the second answer:
The answer is ONE WORD
I got the one word one
Tried these. Instead of answering it, a guy breaks out matches and starts doing other episodes. He knew and kept it classy!
His hint to one word is great
Anyone else here the moan at 8:50
Wut
ya i did
yeah
i got the second one. the first one is rather clever. the third ust in't fair. you'd haveto know about the gods relation to planets and all that.
Yeah!
+sugarkitty2008 not to mention the analogy doesn't hold.
Venus = Beauty (Venus was God of Beauty and Love)
Earth = Home (duh)
Mars = War (God of War)
Neptune = Ocean (perfect)
Mercury = Speed? (He was the messenger of the Gods and known for being fast I guess, but he was the God of travel and thieves. "messenger" would have been better to hold the analogy)
Jupiter = King (Zeus is God of sky and thunder, also known for being Head of Gods, however his literal assignment is God of sky which conflicts with "Uranus")
Saturn = Feast? (He was the Father of most of the Gods, sun of Gaia and Uranus yes there was a feast called Saturnalia but he was not the God of feasts, "Father" would have been a better analogy)
Uranus = Sky (This is ok, he was known as the God who personified the sky as in he literally was the sky. The sky "uranus" and the Earth "Gaia" met and had baby Gods and the Titans, a better analogy might have been "Space" so as not to confuse him with Jupiter as he represented everything "not" earth aka "space")
Pluto = Death Crossed Out. Clever and fine. The fact that 4 of them are not the same kind of analogy really messes this up though. I probably never would have seen it due to the Saturn and Mercury problem.
My "God" I just realised they were Roman gods not Greek gods.
+Larkspur There's also the problem that he says the second set of words aren't related to each other.
+Larkspur judging by the snobbish comments regarding this, that actually makes the puzzle harder.
Brilliant puzzles! I got the new door one and the not dead one but the led light on stumped pretty bad I love scam school!
the one about digits was easy for me as I did that at colege once. came back to my mind instantaniously.
The 1st one I got accidentally... Not so much because I figured it out, but because I figured it was gonna be correct as is. (My thought process was completely off the mark, though the answer was correct.)
The 2nd one I got immediately, but I hate those kinds of puzzles, so I tried to come up with another word... I failed to do that.
The 3rd one is my problem... You lied twice during it, while giving useless information as to what the goal is. You said the words "aren't related to one another" and "they aren't in a sequence." Both of those are false. They all relate to gods and planets and in a specific order, or sequence.
Now, the way my mind works, I am fairly poor at understanding instructions when it comes to puzzles like the 3rd one, so I am willing to bet its me that's mistaken but... The way you explained it, on top of the 2 false hints... It was presented so poorly that I feel like the fault was on you for that puzzle and it's difficulty, rather than the puzzle being clever in general. (I won't count the whole "Pluto not a planet" thing, even though crossing out the word "Dead" was another false clue.)
Yeah true. I agree with you.
I got the 3rd one right but not the way it was supposed to be solved like I was way off but correct at the same time lol I thought "dead" was crossed off because it was the only word with two of the same letter in it "dd" lol
I agree to a point with you (sorry for the late response). The presentation was definitely, but not necessarily deliberately, misleading. I think what he meant by saying that the words were not in a sequence was that after DEAD (and now OCEAN), the series terminates, unlike the calculator sequence, which can go on forever (which he makes note of in the video). As for crossing out DEAD, it actually is a genuine clue, as Pluto is not considered a full planet any longer. He added to that clue by saying that when he was shown the puzzle, DEAD was not crossed out --indicating that something had changed (Pluto's planetary designation) from then to now, so it was definitely not a false clue.
As for the words not being related, I agree that it wasn't presented well. I'm guessing that he was saying that it didn't require knowing anything about one word to guess the others, although it was still a clumsy was to state it.
TeamPaul17 Yeah, I never do well with explanations as it is... As I usually don't understand the puzzles until I try to solve them on my own anyway...
Either way though, it was interesting... Even how he screwed up the 1st one.
Your videos are very nice, but those advertisements are annoying the fuck out of me.
D1NO oho! Someone hasn't seen any of our new ads... Enjoy, sir: czcams.com/play/PLjqQ16mcrfswivBaqcRHzk58vvcje7B6x.html
Wow, super funny. I'd prefer ads at the beginning or the ending of the video.. Now it's more like a TV Show. And you know it - YT should stay a free platform and rather not commercialized.. (sorry, i'm not a native speaker, so some sentences sound a bit twisted i think)
+derD1NO you have no idea how youtube works do you?
Should we even trust the ads because... This is SCAM school.
***** ? He's saying that youtube should be ad free? Which is very stupid, hence why a lot of people hate youtube red. If youtube was ad free then the youtubers will get no money meaning they won't want to upload anymore... pretty basic.
Amazing how u think of new stuff every week. I got new door and the first but third was pretty tough.
I gotta say, one of your best eps.
I miss your old hair
MMohamed MMustafa me too.
+MMohamed MMustafa He looks and sounds like Hank no from sci show.
+MMohamed MMustafa The Johnny Rotten hair
+MMohamed MMustafa What a beautiful irony.
The third challenge is nice because it can be adjusted on the fly. If they're having trouble figuring it out, you can talk about how three of the four classical elements are in there, and that you're going to add fourth one, fire. While you add it to the beginning, you say that everything revolves around fire and you can circle it or cross it out like dead or something. And bam, the puzzle becomes easier without really giving anything away.
These were good!
hella yeah! i got the first two right ;) feeling so proud and invincible now
The second puzzle was super easy for me. The other two were tougher.
Plus, the first puzzle, when they show it on the screen, the third symbol and the six symbol are the opposite of what he wrote on the paper.
I had some trouble with the first one because I noticed a difference between what he wrote on the paper and the superimposed box (he wrote the "reversed five" in the "reversed two" place, and the "reversed two" in the "reversed five" place), and that made me think that the trick would work both ways, leading me down the garden path. Once I focused on the "official", printed version, it suddenly became clear.
I big urged the first one out! It reminded of of one of the levels in the game 100 Floors so it was easy for me to catch. The LED lights that are showing are actually the lights that are 'off'. So is you look at a digit clock, when it restarts, it looks like an '8' without any LED lights on. Up on the vid, at 4:14 - If you turn the LED lights that were on to off and turn the LED lights that were off to on, it creates the numbers of 1,2,3,4,5,6,7 and the missing number is 8!
I figured out the first one before Brian finished explaining, I feel so smart now. :)
I got the 1st and 2nd ones instantly. Funnily enough I made up the exact same thing as the first puzzle to send coded messages to mates in class in early high school when I got bored. It wasn't perfect but it could be done as you can more or less get nearly every letter in that digital style readout
I knew the "New Door" puzzle, because it in a book by Richard Lederer. I think it was titled, "English Our Crazy Language".
I read the answer in the book. Kudos to the guy who solved it. The only other person I've seen solve it quickly was my wife.
I had no idea for the first one.
For the last puzzle, "Dead" is the only word listed where the same letter repeats in the word, so it's crossed out. That fits, so I'll give myself that one, even though there's a different answer.
YOU ARE AWESOME BRIAN
I did the last one immediately and I solved the first one just after he mentioned it's got to do with numbers. But the 2nd one was just too clever :)
That's funny, I got the 2nd one immediately and couldn't get the others.
*nods approval from the heavens*
*sheds a single tear for your commitment to the cause*
I got the first two almost as soon as he finished explaining them, that third one was killer though
I got the one word one straight away. No idea on the others.
Bryan, I learned today that you played TF2 With Dead Workers Party
My mouth dropped to the floor.
I was truly shocked, because I've been really into their shows, and my brother has been really into Scam School.
THAT IS SOOOO COOOOOOLLL
Got the one word one straight way. I think it must be the first time I've done one of your puzzles.
My fav is saying I'm going to slide a full beer across the bar without spilling a single drop, then I just take my hand and walk it down to the other end of the bar.
These are my favorite type of scams
You are a great host!!
Those were pretty great good job :)
Got the second one straight away. Had my own (incorrect) theory about the first but the third I didn't have a clue!
I work with electronics a lot, and I figured out the calculator one in a matter of seconds. I love inverters.
that first one was super super easy for me, i instantly saw it was the negatives. the other two stumped me till i saw the first bits of the answers.
hey! the puzzles are completely awesome.
I know I'm late to this video but I was actually somewhat close with that last one! I was thinking of the greek gods and if I somehow got to their roman versions I MAY have gotten it. Love these vids man!
Yeah, I got the one word thing immediately. I thought I had the answer to the third one, in that Dead doesn't belong because it was the only word in there that repeated the same character twice: d. I do like the actual solution, in that's it's almost impossible to get but it made sense as soon as you said it.
that was so frustrating but I can't wait to use them on my friends now
at the second puzzle I'm like
hmm wat is it...
Redwood, no
*Brian says you need to make one word*
wait a minute... ONE WORD! BRIAN YOU TRICKY TRICKSTER I DID IT!
Watching scam school drunk makes you feel like you're really there. The pre show adverts are not lies!!!!!! All hail Brushwood God of booze.
When you have to change new door into one word I immediately got it
got the second, really liked the first once i saw what it was, not really surprised or annoyed that i didn't get the last one because that was a little more out there
I was thinking it was all were nouns except dead. A fast, a home, a beauty, a war, a king, a feast, a sky, an ocean.
I'm a bartender and I love the puzzles, I use them on all my guests!!!
DEAD was the only one with two same letters!!!!
The only one I got was the first one, but those were great puzzles, thx for another good video :)
Oh my god that is so sneaky..........I CAN'T WAIT TO TRY IT
FIgured the second out so quickly, it is literally one word
I am not kidding that as soon as he said the second puzzle I was only thinking.... the answer must be "One Word"
got the first two as they were put down. Halfway through the video and still can't work out the third one. Felt so happy at first but now annoyed as all hell- brilliant though
well now its 313!!!! keep up the AWESOME work!!!! :)
I love how watching this made me realize that the new door one was literally one word
GUYS THE MIDDLE ONE IS MARUS EDDIE!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOVE THAT DUDE
I, for one, like these puzzle challenges. And Brian, I know no one cares, but for the record I solved all three of these in about two minutes (the second puzzle I got immediately), didn't cheat or hear them before. I figure out about 85-90% of the 'scams'/challenges presented on this channel - but I'm not the type to frequent bars/pubs.
Thank Soo much mr. Bushwood. U helped me talk 2 my crush and almost get her number. I broke the ice with the quaters diamond puzzle md then 2 of these nd then followed up with the number trick(I don't think u have that on one yur channel, u should)
Watching scam school makes me feel so smart. I got all of these fairly quickly.
Wow! this guy really love bears
I was on the right track with the 3rd puzzle. I was thinking Greek gods because Hades, the god of the dead, was thrown out of Olympus, but alas it was about planets, which are named after the Gods' (and Titan's in the case of Saturn) Roman counterparts
I got the first two pretty much instantly, the third one had me 100% stumped.
I find this stuff amazing it is funny whatching people try and figure it out.
And we love every single one
Amazing vids
I like how the table shadow makes it look like the guy in shorts is wearing fishnets.
Best scams ever
nothing's better than watching scam school while eating cherry pie
New door I already knew this one cuz we had a puzzle trivia game in math in seventh grade and the teachers kept saying its one word... And I was like wait that works! And got it. I still remember it haha
