- Today we're having four nations with varying levels of intelligence go to war! Will the idiots put their collective knowledge together and win, or will they get destroyed by the geniuses?

i think that every time the people with the "bad" traits will win because the chance of inheritances isn't a lot and they will eventually just turn into normals, making them really op
That's true, Mellon should toggle that option to have 100% chance of inheritances.
Curious way to look at it
The worst can only grow out of it, while the best can only tarnish their heritage
I suppose early game doesnt matter much, so all the traits get mudded together and when it comes to actual conquering its just about who has a bigger army
Yeah, the traits just fade out and the places with the most population and thus army win.
@@kajnake5905 yeah, and when he gives them the traits again, its when theyre already at war and cant improve too much before they die
super genius is a mod? or a real in game thing?
*Long ago, the 4 Nations lived together in harmony. But that all changed when The Idiots attacked.*

"Idiots rule the world, not because they are competent but because there are too many of them"
Because the smart people underestimate them and fight other smart people.
@@tyrantonion6660 a common trait of all smart people is to skip over anything or anyone that is considered beneath them. Always a fatal mistake 🧐
Basically our world
@@daniel6anks819 what is this
Sounds like the idiots is stormtroopers
The early takeover of normals by idiots really just helped get rid of their negative traits and just made a huge army without the stupid debuff

Battle idea: 3x3 square, like tic-tac-toe board, with mountains in between each. Put each race of humanoids in each corner, put each one of the summoning things (like tumor and cybercore) on the side squares, and put a few undead in the center. See which one comes on top. Also, if you don't want the cybercore, you can use bandits or some one man army.
That's cool bro😎
This 3 by 3 grid idea seems pretty interesting, hope he tries it out

why comment random numbers
@@cclockwize I think they meant to say bigger area? Like 6x6 or 7x7? I'm not entirely sure.
"Wow the geniuses are already level 2"
"The super geniuses are already level 16"
Dude this entire video's literally the perfect depiction about the current world situation
"idiots are stealing everything from the super geniuses", yep, this game worked just like real life.
bro thinks hes jaiden smith 💀💀
The super geniuses can use their genius to prevent thieves
Current? My friend this has been happening for thousands of years of recorded history

You should give a civilization all good perks and see how far they go
Lolz
and use expansion mod to increase the cap
What mod do i need to give civilizations traits???

"quantities have quality of it own"
A quote from Sun tzu after sending a horde of peasant to slow down the Mongols
if victory is assured, you must fight! sun tzu said that! and I think he knows a little more about fighting than you do pal! because he invented it! and he perfected it, so that no man could best him in the ring of honor, then he used his fight money to buy 2 of each animal, and hearded them into a boat, then he beat the crap out of them, that's why when you have a group of animals in
1 place it's called a zoo! I'm less it's a farm!
8:32 the equivalent of when the bully steals your work.
Pretty sure the super geniuses would have won if both genius and them declared war on the idiots first instead of getting each others' armies killed.
I guess that makes them pretty stupid. If they were actually geniuses, they would defeat the common enemy and live in harmony.
Idea:1 person with all positive traits vs 1500 people with no traits.Also how do you add those traits?Is it a mod?and if it is please tell me how to get it
Good idea!! And yes, it's a mod called Powerbox. I have instructions on how to download in my Discord
Yes power box is a mod you can add traits/armor or weapons and other powers that are not available ingame
You can download NCMS ON mac but there is one good one by beserker knight revised one
@@mellon9 Idea: Strong bois vs Fast bois
Who do you think would win: A handsome genius lucky guy vs 1500 normal people. Even if he had the best armor even then he cant beat 1500 people coming towards him.
if possible you should somehow turn up the likeliness of inheriting traits all the way, then if you start with two traitless people eventually you'll get superhumans
i wish the intelligent traits actually effect their day-to-day lives like if they are in war, the ones with the best intelligence will most likely win
Smart people find a way to send the idiots to war for them. Historically.
In mordern warfare that is actually the case now. Technology has advanced so much that the utilities of something like an anti-tank ballistic launcher is both used as a thermal/night vision scanner that can be use without the automated tracker is used by creative troops giving them huge advantages over people who lack them or have them but never think of this use.
Real modern armies want smart people hence why they offer so many education bonuses and home assistance. If they wanted as many idiots as they could get there hands on they'd cut all the college stuff and just give folks bigger checks. And days off. maybe salary? I don't know, i study sociology not economic sociology
@@davidbeppler3032 and you base this on what? it was mostly social class if anything.

Suggestion: Next time for this type of videos, make the outest most spaces oceans instead of just all land. Therefore Naval development of countries will be useful.
Oh trueee
@@mellon9 you could also use a mod to make a bigger map than the game allows.
@@mellon9 don't forget advanced weapons, like bombs and stuffs.
a pretty interesting example of how quantity can massively overweigh quality.
Das ist ein Spiel, nicht das wirkliche Leben.
"Who would win a couple geniuses or a ton of idiots?"
Well given the sheer amount of misinformation that exists on the internet, I think we know the answer to this.
I'm curious if it would have been different if the locations of super-genius and genius were swapped.
It is possible that idiots were going down to super-geniuses and killing them for their weapons and since supers had such low numbers they couldn't really fight back, even with better weapons it's still 10 to 1.
Swapping spots would have made it supers vs genius (25 vs 10) and vs normal (5v1) which could have given the supers more of even odds numbers wise.
Now try the same except they all start with 100 pop'
Truly even batle for science. Having less pop' due to higher int' seems kinda silly when you're trying to directly compare that one stat.
If Super's don't win that, then we're all done for.
Really love your videos and your content 😊. Keep it up 👍
I have been watching your channel for a while and your channel has been growing faster than most others I have seen , you are doing a great job
thanks for the good worldbox content
Love your content have been watching your for a short but fun time
This is a prime example of how civilization was created.
Top one hundred! Love this Chanel and all the vids! Melon your great!
Thank you!!
1:50 I think there were no trees because the biomes there were intermixed, and when they try to convert other biome tiles, any trees there die.
Yeah that makes sense
Wow. I really enjoyed this video.
4:28 tbf in world box having half your population ready to fight at a moments notice is definitely a good idea.
This video is the definition of strenght in numbers
Idea Make random traits fight
Spin a wheel with all the traits and give them to 4 nations and let them grow and then fight
I really think the "Kill Everyone in Same Race Wars" thing should be on for these trait wars.
Love the videos
The balancing on things like this could really use a rework. Instead of halving the population each time, try a simple reduction of 20 or so. That should allow for numbers advantage early on, but let each group expand earlier, too.
Another great video!
Love that video!
I love your voice its like df voice calming but very chaotic
Bro make sure to put on angry villagers. The normals merged with the idiots and the geniuses join they shortly after. There was no way the super geniuses could win with that much people
This was way beyond my expectations
That voice effect gets me every time
this video is the definition of the world
You should put like 2 geniuses on the largest map and see if they can survive long enough to find eachother...
they definitely can unless he adds some other obstacles
@@tyuh860 Any suggestions on what obstacles one could set up?
@@kartikiyer3067 i dunno stuff like the expanding core summons (idk what theyre called) or maybe very frequent natural disasters
“To balance it we’re gonna mess with numbers.”
Then you’re not determining if it’s intelligence but adding an extra variable. You have to do the same number, at the same time, in near identical areas of value, and for best results repeat the experiment.
yea isolation of variables
you would not see this in a proper trial
Super geniuses: we declare war
Idiots: what’s a war
I love these vids
U gained a new subscriber
I love you Mellon, just wanted to check in and say I still love your videos haha. Please, please, please play some zomboid or rimworld, I would love to watch you play a game where you have more control. Although, no one else on UA-cam does these world box videos like you do. Love you Mellon!
Thanks dude, I super appreciate it!! I actually just bought Rimworld so I might do a video on it in the future (just gotta learn how to play it first haha)
moral of the story: in a world full of super geniuses, be an idiot
"We will build a massive army with superior technology!" ~ Super Geniuses
"Why build when you can just steal instead?" ~ Idiots, who turn out to be super geniuses in disguise
Those who rely on taking supplies from the enemy will always have enough, those who plan to bring supplies from home will never have enough - Sun Tzu
Hey Mellon have you ever played or thought about playing Hyper Light Drifter as i saw that an image from it was the background of all the "the immortals return" cover image. If you haven't i really recomend playin git as it is an awesome game
Amazing video
You need a larger map and some bodies of water. Numbers trump everything when you're in an enclosed space like this. If there were land shapes in water then your geniuses and super geniuses could maybe use their boats to take islands. Also, how smart those first guys are doesn't matter for much after the first few generations. So either find a way to make traits 100% inheritable or, maybe try this out with elves instead. Just some thoughts. :)
Idiots weren't idiots for long when they captured the super-geniuses
Idiots be like: IT'S BIG BRAIN TIME
If this channel has ever taught me anything it's that numbers matter.
What this tells me is that numbers matter a lot more than technology assuming the gap isn't too insurmountable.
4:09 "Idiots are capturing the entire world" no truer words have ever been said.
“I would not build a nation of the strong,
I would build a nation of the wise”
-me, while watching this video
i got this game on my phone like 4 years ago and haven't thought about since, it turned into a half decent game
Well that was a surprise!
how do you use the super geniuses trait? is that an add on to the already installed mod, because i dont see it? also i love your videos!
Hey so how do you add traits to people? I have the computer version and I believe its up to date.
Thank you so much!
You just described mankind in the first 5 seconds
Lol the icon for the idiots was a book of knowledge
Well, there goes more of my hope in humanity
Idea: make them all dumb, with the most negative traits, most hostile environment, but good recourses
Me while clicking on video: "I don't know anything about this game or the rules of the experiment but I already know the idiots are going to win"
How do you get that extra tab where you can put traits on different people?
One of the few places where saying 'his name is Mud' is actually a good thing.
the twitter stats in the beginning was so funny
Quality over quantiy is my favorite line
hmm ..somewhat scewed to drop in 10 vs 100 to even it out .. by that alone you already answered your question.
btw. it makes a huuuge difference who's placed where, i.e. being next to an agressively expanding tribe
"Idiots are capturing the entire world" yeah, we know🤣
Can you please tell me what version of the game are you using and what kind of mods. I got inspired by your videos, but I can't get all the same traits and stability. I need info and advice🙃
I have a question, what mods do you use to get those trait rain things?
it is powerbox
@@Darkownercute ?? What’s power box?
When you want to set up a test for who would do better with different preferences, you have established that you want to test differing levels in intelligens, aka, you want to test that factor, which means, to get an accurate result all other factors has to be the same in all subjects. When you introduce different factors, as you did when not giving everyone the same number of inhabitants, you change another factor, making the result inaccurate
Do this again but with eqal amounts of people to start with!
Well, in real life. The super geniuses came up with so much ideas on war they just win
With weather on their side, Russia’s numbers would disagree
There not doing so hot in there current war, they may win, but it going to be pyrrhic.
@@brendenhawley2225 a win is a win
@@jairomelgarejoreyes1609 Winning so much, your people have to stand in lines to get bread does not really feel like wining
@@brendenhawley2225 it is still a win
Is the traits menu part of the game or a mod? I have the mobile game but not the pc version yet.
Glad to see my people win.
Cool video
:)
Say yeet in your next video
Ok
This video is warning us of what is happening right now in real life.
I feel like the super geniuses would've clapped if they were opposite of the idiots as opposed to next to them, thats the leg up the geniuses had and probably why they lasted so long. High pop is basically a fast win except for in the early game
8:58
Yeah you know what that sound is
quantity has a quality of its own
-jozef stalin
This is just like real life.The idiots win and the people with actual talent lose.
my name is mud is a great primus song. the super geniuses have got the right idea
Human geniuses vs Elf, Orc and Dwarfes in a Humongous world !
3:10 bro cant touch type unlike me 😂
I just had a question how you edit the traits of people, I have the game and can’t find the meni
Mellon: A ton of idiots
Background: "Twitter currently has 396 million users"
LMAOOOOO
if you buy the game in steam will it have ingame purchases like in mobile? or nah? since you already pay to get the game?
This is why you don't argue with idiots. They will just drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
very accurate!
Keep it UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)
:)
@@mellon9 :)
You did the fallout 4 Commonwealth vs the institute run lol
I think the main reason idiots always win is because 1. The idiot trait fades out over time, and 2. There’s always way too many of them.
Some people think they can outsmart me. Maybe. Maybe. I have yet to meet one who can outsmart bullet.
