The worst part about all of this is that, assuming we're honest players who ended the game when we lost and totally didn't go back and change our answers so we'd win, this means that there are so many videos Grey put up that won't be viewed by a large number of the contestants. So much effort, so little "profit" so to speak.
I played it yesterday and lost immediately, then explored some of the paths and mused, "This is the craziest abuse of UA-cam I have ever seen. It must have taken him ages to do this. Respect."
I spent a good 2 hours watching ALL of the videos, I'm pretty sure. My computer science graph traversing algorithms knowledge was finally useful for something!
Just wanted to say, your RPS game was much appreciated. Thank you for the experience. It was only a few minutes for me, but the hours and weeks and months you put into this will not go unappreciated. Thank you again for your time investment. Here to you, Grey! 🍻
Back in the dark ages, when the earth was still cooling and I was working on my Master's degree, one of the assignments was to come up with an idea for a web site. Our group's idea was to do a choose your own adventure kind of book. We had to make a demo of the site, and that was hard work for 4 of us with no HTML experience. (Yes, back then you actually had to code your own HTML. Oh, the horrors!!) I can't imagine how much harder this was to accomplish than our puny little demo site with only a handful of pages. Thank you for doing this. It was a lot of fun to try a couple of times honestly, then cheat my way through multiple paths to the end.
I lost in the fourth round. And I kept watching. While I was no longer playing, it was fun to watch the odds and their comparisons grow to greater and higher heights.
After getting the 1 out of 1,000,000 trophy...I felt it. The satisfaction. The reward. The gratify... It felt good. It was the best. I will never forget this moment.
made it all the way to one in a million, my thought was “ah yes, rock. will carry me to victory.” and then when i went billion or bust, i was like “no, that’s too many rocks. he would never.” AND I PUT OUT PAPER. IM GOING TO SOB.
dang it, I thought I'd clicked on every path and seen all the videos, and then felt bad bc I felt like I was skewing the numbers, but there's a HUNDRED videos in this??? WELL I know what I'm spending my sunday on!😂
We'll never know. You can cheat and click through all the win videos to see the final video, and there's no way to prove you got there honestly. Even if you recorded your run, there's no way to know you didn't watch all the vids first to know what he picked

Can confirm. Played once, and since ties are "fail," was in the 66% eliminated with the very first choice.
well,we all know that most of us would just go back and at least find out the billion winner ending 😏
Or trillion. Let's be honest if you're here chances are you're reverse engineering the map

It's very much akin to a heist with Markiplier and in space with Markiplier. More people should do these kinds of things as they are really fun
This really hit old school UA-cam vibes.
Can I cheat now to get all the endings
CGP Grey: I make Quality Video over Quantity.
Also CGP Grey: *makes 100s of videos at once*

I will print my cerificate of unluckiness and shall never speak of this ever again, thank you.
You made me laugh out loud at the sheer scale of this while playing. Your videos are always awesome!
Managed to get better than 1700 in the whole billions. So not too shabby. 😂 This was so old school awesome - I appreciate the hard work!!
All I could think about while running through the videos was how enormous the work must have been to create it. It was really cool though seeing it.

Ngl this UA-cam series was really fun and probably the best UA-cam series ever. Thx grey!
I really enjoy "If you're not a student"
That was the greatest video maze I've ever seen and I didn't yet explore all of it, amazing work Sir !
This was amazingly fun and I can’t believe how much effort went into making it you’re amazing!
All this effort for rock paper scissors I love it
So there ARE multiple choices! I was watching on mobile and lost the first round. Thought the whole build-up was an elaborate troll 😅
Yay it’s out I really wanna see those secret endings
I loved it! Thank you so much for creating it.
I'm so happy you did a choose your own adventure video! It was a lot of fun!
As a Bonnie Bee I can this video alone is worth 100% of a 1-month ($5 USD) or even really 3 months for those who are honest.
made it all the way to one in a million, my thought was “ah yes, rock. will carry me to victory.” and then when i went billion or bust, i was like “no, that’s too many rocks. he would never.” AND I PUT OUT PAPER.
IM GOING TO SOB.
Great work, CGP Grey! You're aweomse.
dang it, I thought I'd clicked on every path and seen all the videos, and then felt bad bc I felt like I was skewing the numbers, but there's a HUNDRED videos in this??? WELL I know what I'm spending my sunday on!😂
I just became a bee so I can see.
I will watch the video when I wake up again.
That was really great! Great game and message!
Awesome idea! Great job with the project :))
You really done did a game design on that one. Congrats!
Also love the classic beepey music!
Never disappoints !
This video was great!
What a rush… still got a buzz from thinking about it 27odd chances in a row
Grey just overdelivers yet again.
Loved this
see you next year gray!
dude I am speechless I just don't even know how you could do this
I loved the challenge, nice
I wanted to see all the videos. Yes I did, so I cheated my way through it. What fun!
But oh my, you must be exhausted!
Honestly that video was very fun.
so fun :)
Did anyone ever get to the final video?

Your rule against students is both admirable and bothersome as a student.
Is it cheating that I want to know what happens if you get all the way through?
My adblocker automatically blocks ad cards and I had no clue what on earth was going on in that video
Can I get permission to cheat now? Please? Just to quench my curiosity?
I loved the game!
so we have your permission to explore the maze? we wont spoil some stats thing you are doing?
well I missed most of those hundred videos
had no idea you posted a game
Please do a video on the Minnesota flag submissions 🙏
Proud Anti-luck here!
Best online game i have ever played
Wild
I certainly missed a couple endings then 😅
1 in 40k gang!!
what video? it never showed up in my subscriptions
Grey, why do you do these things to yourself?
Top 500 certificate holder gang
I gladly ended at the bliss of ending at 1 in a million
I truly hated Grey pointing out the unlikeliness of everything
I think I "watched" almost all of the videos and it was interesting how there were multiple different chains of wins.
