Christ, I got jump-scared by my own name! Though, credit where credit is due, Tyson Kroening is largely responsible for the actual cutting on this one, but I did help plot it out a bit-glad we could keep it interesting for ya! 😈
Thanks for the work you all do! I knew it was a gamble name dropping you in particular, but I'm glad it had the intended effect. 💚 Y'all need to tell the team to credit their trailer editors! :)
OMG the speculation about the thjngs on their wrists was so funny! You specilate so hard and come up with such wild theories - and at the end of the day, it's just lemons.
Please consider doing a post-season review! I’m a casual jet lag viewer so I don’t necessarily remember all the details you may have gotten right/wrong. Would be fun to see it all summarized!
After having watched the first 5 episodes of the season, I finally dared to watch this. The amount of research that went into this is insane, chapeau to all contributors!
Wow, I'm watching only now because I'm one of those that like to go in blind. Well done with this given the information, or lack there of, that the trailer contained.
oh wow looks like the guys have learnt how to mess with you! i'm surprised by how much u guys got confused, and the lemon thing absolutely made me burst out laughing, i hope they keep making future teasers confusing cause this was fun to see haha
I am always looking forward to watching ging these after the season is finished! These analysis‘ are so great to watch and it does have a comforting aspect as well, still getting to watch this video after I’ve finished the actual season
With other jetlag games I'd wait for them to finish to watch this, but hide and seek is far more entertaining if you know where the hider is hiding and can asses whether the seekers are playing well.
If you're trying to watch bits while avoiding spoilers: Safe to watch to 7:00 if you've seen episode 1. If you've seen episode 2, STOP HERE TOO. Moderate spoilers for (presumably) episode 3 in the minute or so after that, and big spoilers for (presumably) episode 4 and beyond from 8:27 (edit: actually at least episode 5, and probably episode 6 too). (And yes, this may in itself be a spoiler for episode 2? Or maybe not depending on what else is said in the video beyond those points.)
8:53 should've been a pretty conclusive that sam and ben was somewhere (probs 3.5h from saruhashi) down the southern coast when adam was hiding his second round. So you got more right then you said in your conclusion
Episode 2 spoiler: I love that you made the same mistake the seekers made in the actual game. I'd love to see you on the show. Would be really interesting to see if your skills translate into the real-world (and without your discord team) ;).
Watching this after episode 4, I gotta say that it's pretty funny that Sam and Adam (well, mostly Sam) made the same assumption as you for Ben's second hiding spot lol
So just as a recap, this is what hamfrags theory says Day 1 Ben goes to yamadera Day 2 morning, Ben is caught and Adam goes to koriyama, and we see reference to asakagamori station Day 2 somewhere in the afternoon evening, Adam is caught Day 2 Ends with Sam hiding Day 3, Sam is hiding in the narita airport Day 3, late afternoon, Sam is caught, and Ben starts his run no clear clips are shown, but maybe Ben might be hiding in the bushes of northwest Nagano (hamfrags' wildest guess) And, we lose track of days But lets keep it Day 4 night-late evening, and Ben is caught Day 5 morning, adam reaches sarohashi No clips were shown after this So, its difficult to say who wins it But with the theory we r going with, if Adam is caught before Day 5 night but after evening, it shows that Ben/sam will win So we can clearly say, Day 5,6 are the most important days and whoever spends the most hiding in these 2 days will win the race So for Ben to win, he needs to find Adam before day 6 afternoon, and he'll win If adam is hidden until after the day 6 afternoon, Adam will win And For Sam to win, Adam should be caught before the evening falls in day 5 and Sam needs to stay hidden until the end of the game So chances of winning Ben- 40%-50% Adam- 30%-40% Sam - 10%-30% Well, this all makes sense only if our theory actually works! Hope whatever i wrote made sense and is understandable... Edit: I know my English is bad, its just not my first language, I'm learning the language, but hope u guys understood what i explained here
It's fun knowing and finding them. After watching the last week's episode on Nebula, I wanted to get some preliminary ideas where he might be hiding, so I consulted with ChatGPT and after checking it's suggestions on Street View, the station that ended up as most likely candidate for me turned out to be just one station over. When I saw his station in this week's episode, I quickly ruled out the former one, but found the real one and even found that little waterfall from the teaser. Spoiler alert: I loved seeing how they fricked up with their assesment and ruled his area out. I wonder how long it will take them to reconsider it, but based on the trailer, he's lasting until nightfall at least.
I've got a question about Sam's airport hiding spot. The obvious answer is he wants to found early on to have a second go-around like in Tag v3(?). Because otherwise it just doesn't make sense to just hide right at the train terminal to instantly be tagged. He still has a half-mile radius to work with. Is this just a case of realizing that everywhere else in your half-mile radius of the train station at the airport is off-limits due to not be accessible during all hours of game time?
Oh, I have been playing around with my own designs for a year and a half at this point! Hopefully you'll get to see something come of it sooner rather than later!
Something seems wrong. If Ben's second run puts him near Koriyama and definitely Adam Saruhashi then why are Sam and Ben soaking their feet in Atami?? That is out of the way from Koriyama to Saruhashi by a lot.
Chase went next and hid near Tobiyama Castle Site Station in Tochigi Prefecture, where he achieved a time of 7 hours and 41 minutes. Denby went next and hid in Narita International Airport in Chiba Prefecture. Saw this in wikipedia go and check it under seasons it will be there under season 11
He isn’t though Spoiler Alert He correctly predicts that it’s Adam’s second location being used in the trailer and not first one. His only miss so far is him guessing wrong on when Ben is found.
Yeah, I've stopped worrying about getting these out before the season begins. This time, though, it was simply that the thing took a while to put together. :)
@Mrrchv8181 I don't watch such crap so I wouldn't know, but just the idea of taking someone else's hard work just to destroy and spoil it for others is vicious.
@ holy what an overreaction. He is not destroying the work, he just analyzes what has been put in the trailer. Or even better said - he is one of people who do, there is a small group on the Jet Lag’s Discord server who do. The whole crew has acknowledged these guys and even gave them separate channel on Discord server. So if they don’t find anything wrong with it and pop in occasionally to check how’s things going - then why you do?
every night, I fall asleep worrying whether I correctly identified Koriyama station because its in such an awkward location to string into a timeline with the other locations. ;-; Im scared of embarrassing myself lol
I love how the trailer uses Adam’s second hiding spot but not his first one to prank you specifically
With how much confusion it caused, it did feel almost targeted, lol
It’s a better one for a trailer tbf
Christ, I got jump-scared by my own name! Though, credit where credit is due, Tyson Kroening is largely responsible for the actual cutting on this one, but I did help plot it out a bit-glad we could keep it interesting for ya! 😈
You’re definitely keeping it interesting! Thanks for being a part of creating this Amazing game(s)!

Lol, X to doubt :P
@@exxplore I would say we get 7 episodes... I cant see us getting an 8th and for sure not a 9th.
Wow, I'm watching only now because I'm one of those that like to go in blind. Well done with this given the information, or lack there of, that the trailer contained.
Thanks! Yeah, this trailer was a tough one for us to make sense of. My timeline from this video was not the only one that was proposed.
Always watch these after the season, it’s crazy how good you guys are
It’s so funny seeing this breakdown knowing what ends up happening.
Putting my reputation on the line for your entertainment 🫡
@ You ended up getting most of it right in the end anyway! All of the ones possible to pinpoint anyway.
I love that both you and the seekers thought ben would go to nagano
Haha, "great minds" and all that...
I'm intrigued by Sam's choice for his hiding spot in Episode 3. Looking forward to seeing if Ben and Adam view his choice as insanity or brilliant.
Seems vulnerable to photo clues. Gonna be interesting seeing how it plays out!
@@Hamfragsit was even better after watching the episode
@@tuurderom2017Just real bad luck they find him by accident. Searching an airport could have taken hours.
@@Psi-Storm "This line is only used by locals and confused tourists" -Sam, right before getting caught by two confused tourists
14:03 "Even if we take into account his incredible speed"
I see what you did there
oh wow looks like the guys have learnt how to mess with you! i'm surprised by how much u guys got confused, and the lemon thing absolutely made me burst out laughing, i hope they keep making future teasers confusing cause this was fun to see haha
It turns out Jack was indeed messing with you/us.

Are you going to do a retrospective? It'll be *interesting* this season.
6:37 when they think it’s some insane device but it turns out to just be a lemon :/
With other jetlag games I'd wait for them to finish to watch this, but hide and seek is far more entertaining if you know where the hider is hiding and can asses whether the seekers are playing well.
Why do you need to know the hiding location to assess whether they're playing well? The seekers don't have that info either
@@thesuomi8550Well, the seekers also don't know if they're playing well

And this is why seekers can’t use google streetview.
"shock collars" "gps trackers" lemon :3
We need more of these spoiler.. so much fun watching you talk about the finding
Something came up, so I moved the premiere a bit. Sorry!
First Episode was tje Something that came up!
I would love to see some of the hiders head towards maybe the Kansai region and hide there in future episodes.
I hope that too! Maybe if we see a round 6!
Chicago Geographer reference on the shirt. Lets gooo
Episode 2 spoiler:
I love that you made the same mistake the seekers made in the actual game.
I'd love to see you on the show. Would be really interesting to see if your skills translate into the real-world (and without your discord team) ;).
Wow, this was actually crazy close. Amazing job!
Waiting for the day you will be a guest on one of their seasons
thanks for the mention ❤❤❤
Of course!
Finally time to watch this
Can’t wait to watch this when the series ends
Watching this after episode 4,
I gotta say that it's pretty funny that Sam and Adam (well, mostly Sam) made the same assumption as you for Ben's second hiding spot lol
Finally get to watch this
me too, i never watch the trailers
as a Slovenian i was so caught off guard when u said Slovenian hole
So just as a recap, this is what hamfrags theory says
Day 1 Ben goes to yamadera
Day 2 morning, Ben is caught and Adam goes to koriyama, and we see reference to asakagamori station
Day 2 somewhere in the afternoon evening, Adam is caught
Day 2 Ends with Sam hiding
Day 3, Sam is hiding in the narita airport
Day 3, late afternoon, Sam is caught, and Ben starts his run
no clear clips are shown, but maybe Ben might be hiding in the bushes of northwest
Nagano (hamfrags' wildest guess)
And, we lose track of days
But lets keep it
Day 4 night-late evening, and Ben is caught
Day 5 morning, adam reaches sarohashi
No clips were shown after this
So, its difficult to say who wins it
But with the theory we r going with, if Adam is caught before Day 5 night but after evening, it shows that Ben/sam will win
So we can clearly say, Day 5,6 are the most important days and whoever spends the most hiding in these 2 days will win the race
So for Ben to win, he needs to find Adam before day 6 afternoon, and he'll win
If adam is hidden until after the day 6 afternoon, Adam will win
And For Sam to win, Adam should be caught before the evening falls in day 5 and Sam needs to stay hidden until the end of the game
So chances of winning
Ben- 40%-50%
Adam- 30%-40%
Sam - 10%-30%
Well, this all makes sense only if our theory actually works!
Hope whatever i wrote made sense and is understandable...
Edit: I know my English is bad, its just not my first language, I'm learning the language, but hope u guys understood what i explained here
Your English is good, very understandable, and can't see any mistakes
@netheritebunny thank you 👍🏻
I think Sam is in Higahi-Nartia Station Which is the Old Narita airport station with limited service
I can confirm that someone has to hide in Tokyo
It's fun knowing and finding them. After watching the last week's episode on Nebula, I wanted to get some preliminary ideas where he might be hiding, so I consulted with ChatGPT and after checking it's suggestions on Street View, the station that ended up as most likely candidate for me turned out to be just one station over.

I can’t image your reaction when it was just a lemon lol
HELL YEAH TIS THE SEASON IM SO EXCITED
10:30 this was too funny 😂😂😂
Love the CG hoodie. Big beef cow 🔛🔝
This has been a good way to gauge the amount of CG fans in my audience, lol
Nice predictions hahaha
fed video, sjovt at se spekulationer osv og så og ha set de to første videoer

W merch
I have to wait 2 more hours? I might be dead by then, you don't know.
Sweet, I didn't die.
@@DFWHoppe ahaha
bro did not predict the lemon curse lol
Obviously not
Bro plated himself😂
i really wanna see a retrospective on this
I've got something coming around the end of next week that you might like even better. :)
Obligatory “Cya in 5-7 weeks” comment
Obligatory “im back” response
Welcome back 💚
Hamfrags trailer analysis times you know what that means! (I go back and watch last season’s trailer analysis)
Ep2 spoiler.
He simply didn't take into account afams incredible speed
Switzerland 2.0
Nice. Keep it going
First 4 episodes are out now it was round 5 not round 2 when “Adam was hiding just west of Tokyo” 10:36
Ìts pretty cool how much you got out of a trial!

Is this just a case of realizing that everywhere else in your half-mile radius of the train station at the airport is off-limits due to not be accessible during all hours of game time?
It will make sense in the episode, I promise (I have nebula and I watched it this morning)
nice CG shirt!!
CG hoodie huge dub
Hey hamfrags, now that episode 1 has released, how would you change your predictions given that ben was caught in the evening
W Chicago geographer shirt
A follow-up on the accuracy of your prediction would be nice.
Ben is an Yamaderian for the first episode of the game.
Great, now try predict season 13 (spoiler: the first scene is probably in London, UK)
pretty good
Thanks
Did anybody notice the CG sticker on his shirt?
Was very surprised to hear death note the musical in the credits but I really like it!
Haha thanks
Both shows are about finding a guy somewhere in Japan. Same thing basically.
holay molay, chicago geographer merch right after i just watched one of his videos??
not at saruhashi in his first run
0:58 hmm have absolutely no ideas whose merch that is no siree lol
Chicago geographer
Did you ever think about playing the games? Forming a team for it? Filming it/not?
Oh, I have been playing around with my own designs for a year and a half at this point! Hopefully you'll get to see something come of it sooner rather than later!
@Hamfrags Looking sooo forward to it:))
I waa looking for this video yesterday 😂😂😂
Something seems wrong. If Ben's second run puts him near Koriyama and definitely Adam Saruhashi then why are Sam and Ben soaking their feet in Atami?? That is out of the way from Koriyama to Saruhashi by a lot.
Well, spoiler for episode 2:
It turns out Sam and Ben are not immune to taking the shinkansen pretty far in the wrong direction.
I think it has something to do with Ben hiding in Izu in ep 4
6:49 why does this transition kinda feel like a bit of analog horror?😭
You remind me of Tom Brady ngl 😂
lmao bro is right Bro is the best detective lmao bro became a nerd but peak fr lmfao
Chase went next and hid near Tobiyama Castle Site Station in Tochigi Prefecture, where he achieved a time of 7 hours and 41 minutes. Denby went next and hid in Narita International Airport in Chiba Prefecture.
Saw this in wikipedia go and check it under seasons it will be there under season 11
The first episode is already out on UA-cam.
i am NOT watching this (yet!) see you at the end of the season
Good luck on S13 lol… it’s impossible…
Lol well, there'll probably be a trailer at some point.
why is this guy obsessed with hide and seek
this is way too nerdy for me😭🙏🙏
lmao bro lmfao peak fr
Spoil alert ... those are lemon in that tide to their hand
Wow the first time Hamfrags has been as wrong as this😂😂😂
Spoiler Alert
Adam is in Tobiyama Castle Station at Run 2( not mentioned in this whole video)
He isn’t though
Spoiler Alert
He correctly predicts that it’s Adam’s second location being used in the trailer and not first one. His only miss so far is him guessing wrong on when Ben is found.
I could do better than you right now for this season than you then ngl
Bro, reveal it before the video comes out innit, u made a mistake, especially premiering it 1 day after the 1st video came
i believe it's done in case there is another teaser at the end of ep1 as it was the case in a previous season
Yeah, I've stopped worrying about getting these out before the season begins. This time, though, it was simply that the thing took a while to put together. :)
Things take time, and also everything was super hard to guess timeline wise, give poor hammy a break!
Why would I watch this?rather than the actual thing? Quit trying to ride their coattails.
you don't have to watch this.
this was made before it released
Unnecessary spoiler
Get a life dude and don't destroy others' work 👎👎👎👎👎
He literally warns you that it contains spoilers and that you should leave if you don’t want to hear it

Nah, I looked over the UA-cam vid you posted, and it looks solid to me! Don't worry about it!
@@Hamfrags what's his youtube channel name, where can I see his video
What I meant is they found a youtube video of a walking tour of Koriyama Station, which was what we used to confirm the location of that shot of Ben.
