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
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.
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-
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
Man... this is the guy that built the mars rover and quit NASA to make a video about how to win in guess who
He obviously made the right choice
Terrtail Huegos yes it was amazing
lmao
Best decision of his life...
.
"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

Well it’s at 2k, LET’S GET TO 3K
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.
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?
@@ingwiafraujaz3126 ethnically and otherwise
The worst strategy:
-Is your character a man or a woman?
-Yes.
Haha
best
even worse 'a human'
Is your person on your board
Even worse is do you have a character.
Can we all just appreciate how proud his old teacher looked.
Awww. Love teachers like that
@@friendusesthisaccountnocom9928 you're clearly not that interested then lol
Joe Kinchicken except John cEna and the rock
@@friendusesthisaccountnocom9928 you should really try and work work on that then if you can't focus for 12 mins at a time lmao
michakiri yeah
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!
one more thing I just wanted to say I really love your videos and you have helped me learn so many new thing that I never even new about. So I just want to say thank you so very much mark rober

No one is going to play with you if you keep using "OR".
Ask if its a person
I was looking forward for this comment to upvote. Using "or" is not against the written rules but it's also not fair.
I wanted No to play with me anyway.
Then i guess I'll keep using "OR".

+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.

One time I guessed my opponent's character by saying "okay Ashleyyyyy" in a sarcastic tone and I've never been able to do that again. Guess on the first question.

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"

Did you notice at 7:57 there is a sound effect playing when he shows the chart, and it sounds like the sound of Zelda breath of the wild chest opening sound. Although this vid is posted 7 years ago, and Zelda BOTW came out 5 years ago, so there is a possibility that the sound effect is inspired by this

Oh snap, I know Prof. Malloy. I had him for Discrete Mathematics. Cool Guy. I didn't recognize him in those photos you posted, but I did recognize that hallway of the Math/Science building of FJC.
this is basically a very similar concept to database indexing. when you are searching a database for something, its much faster to find it if you can order all potential answers, and then the computer tries to figure out if its above or below a random guess. It requires less amount of checks to do it this way than to sequentially check each individual row if its accurate or not.

“Yes.”

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
That BB experiment was literally one of the coolest things I've ever seen

I liked the little reference at the end.
Wouldn’t it be unlikely an opponent would continue to use the conventional strategy if you played a series of games? After potentially one or two games of losing, they would recognize your pattern of questions and adopt it and then you would not maintain the advantage for the remaining set of games
This is an extremely underrated comment.
@@lazarlol4132 agreed!
Real question is how does this change the mathematical probabilities?
And do they know How to use it
Variations like that are one of the reasons for needing so many games to obtain statistical validity.
Those variations end up being are accounted for In the long run
Asking "do they have this OR this OR this" seems like a cheap cop out, even if it's not technically illegal
@@Deadpan10 I believe you may be misinterpreting the question. The "or" is including all of the parameters. After asking that question you don't know which of the three qualities the opponent has, which is what makes it valid.
@@Schindlabua I would play. The thing is that even though there are more parameters, there is still only one correct answer of two possible answers: “yes” or “no”. The “or” just alters what people fit into “yes” and “no”.
@@paulshin4649 but if the answer is no to the a, b, or c question, haven't you wasted a turn unsure if all are 3, just 2 or 1 is untrue? I dont get it. I think the 3rd option is messing me up.
I understand the or/and difference. Im just missing how the 3rd option improves your position.
@@iluvdissheet The point us to ask a question that covers half of the remaining characters so that you can narrow down the board by 50% no matter what answer you get
This has always been legal. The rulebook even has an example question of "does your character have a hat or glasses"
