That one poor house owner. Their house got robbed, area flooded, neibour directly across the road died, their house then got set on fire. All while having no power :(
OR...or.....electrify the swing set? Then the children will have more time to work in the pumping stations which must be manned AT ALL TIMES. ALL TIMES.
Logan Smith Yes and the Australians lost.... also DONT FIT ME IN WITH THOSE *AUSTRALIANS.* I said I am Dictator of Australia. The only Australians that will be leading my army are Mr. Sunday Movies AKA Goatman and Nick Mason.
Welcome to the OXtralia Dam! I am your dam guide, Cameron, please don't wander off the dam tour and please take all the dam pictures you want. Now are there any dam questions?
I haven't even watched it yet but I know what's gonna happen. Ellen will become some kind of maniacal dictator while Luke tries fruitlessly to stop her. I've seen this before. *Stares at Jane*
I think last time it was Luke who turned into the tyrant and started rationing air. Then mocking the protesters. Concerned about his attentions falling upon her, Ellen was just swept up in the process.
Friendly stats for Oxtralia: Motto: "Its fine. Everything's fine." Official animal: The Giggling Dropbear Official song: "AaaAaaaaAhh!" Population: Dwindling.
A Children's playground right by a power pylon, a river with history of flooding, and a cliff. Because nothing bad ever happens when those ingredients are baked into one cake!
I'm not sure if I would want to live in the town that is run by three tyrants who rule with an iron fist or a town run by two people who flood their own town
This is all very nice, but who would want to live in the boring comfort of OXtralia, when you can never know if you'll be evicted for no reason by your tyrannical mayor triad in Oxboxford? Honestly guys.
@Timothy McLean And that half of the city they purposefully neglected while showering the other half with wonderful amenities. Perhaps they put all the refugees from Oxboxford there, and that's why they ignore it... that would explain their need for an "Oppression Office"...
Oh don't worry. Your regular Oxboxtra fans would be OVERJOYED with that 75% friendly fire death rate. On a side note, I sure hope those two guys who upvoted my other comment also upvoted Sverker. Oxboxtra playing Magicka would simply be hilarious.
Luke: Theme Park! Airport! Fun! Ellen: We need to do more sensible stuff... Luke: Awwwww... Think most of us are Luke at first then Ellen when it goes wrong
As an Australian, I appreciate how you've gone out of your way to include homages to the floods and fires we experience here. I trust come OXtralia's summer you'll arrange the traditional half-fire and half-flood with a couple of cyclones around the edges?
Imagine if you will a space colony abandoned in the dead of night, 1000s fleeing in shuttles and craft to escape their tormentors only to find Luke and Ellen also dominate the world below them. Moving from the colony of their nightmares to a terror filled planet based habitat. All we need now is a colony simulator under ground or under the sea (they were close this episode!) and it will prove OXBOX's reach knows no bounds. You are safe nowhere NPCS.... NOWHERE!
Is this the first time they have been sponsored, I kind of like it because it meant we got a great video like all of their videos and they get more money
Not the first time for the whole team, Oxbox crew have made some other sponsored videos over years. Oxtra team for the first time, I think. And yeah, I do like it when they do it, too. They handle it great.
I think living in Oxtralia would be a combination of feeling the crippling fear of death all day but at the same time the surroundings are looking so good that you can't help to just love them
Andy: "Jane! Reports just came in. Oxtralia is doing a lot better than Oxboxford." Jane: "Our normal bulldozer is designed for houses, not entire towns. Go get the big one."
'Why doesn't the government do anything about the fires?' Luke responds by accidentally flooding the town and howling to summon the animals of the wild. I actually injured myself laughing. XD
Welcome to OXtralia! The riverside town where house fires are put down by flood from the river and necessities are provided only when you need them (not before you need them). Also, we have tons of electricity for a town that uses 4MW.
"Nobody panic..." No reason to panic, it's not like a freakish water monster is towering over the dam, deciding which part of OXtralia to devour first. Luke was worried about people rioting, but who thought about nature rioting?
No it's not. Dams are supposed to have the curve pointed upstream so it divides the push of the water against the two sides instead of having the curve be pointed downstream where all of the weight is pushing on that one point of the structure. Google "Curved dam" to see it for yourself.
I'm sorry for people like you who can't take more that "first!" or "let Ellen play Kingdoms of Amalur" or "who's watching without socks?". Sorry to make you less dumb.
Seriously though, speaking as an Australian, things being both on fire AND flooded at the same time is the most accurate description of Australia during the summer time (especially over Christmas time). OXtralia's resemblance to actual Australia is almost uncanny.
That one poor house owner. Their house got robbed, area flooded, neibour directly across the road died, their house then got set on fire. All while having no power :(
OXtralia, where if its not on fire, its probably submerged in water
just like some places in real Australia
lol
@@Montasir125 Uh... >_>
Some things never change.
OXtralia promises healthy inhabitants by keeping them on their feet 24/7 due to occasional flooding.
After they named it after Australia they really shouldn't have been suprised about all the fires and floods
Ema Porter yeah they kind of jinxed themselves there!
yeah there are a lot of cyclones aka hurricanes and fires happening here
It's a Utopia! :)
NO DON'T LOOK OVER THERE!
Mc Uber Boss 😂😂😂😂
Mc Uber Boss Oh hi Kim
Mc Uber Boss is the first to write you
yes I meant to say that
i mean, it's more utopian than oxboxford...
they just eliminate whoever disputes the fact that it is a utopia...
Mike's grill is going places now it's moved to Oxstralia. Seriously, it will be going into the sea with all the flooding.
It Took me like 20 minutes to make this terrible joke.
Time well spent
"Corpse house! It's haunted!" - This is why you don't take Luke to your grandma's wake
If the electricity stops at the swing set, then why not rig the swing set to produce power every time the swing swings?
Children: the power source of the future
OR...or.....electrify the swing set? Then the children will have more time to work in the pumping stations which must be manned AT ALL TIMES. ALL TIMES.
David Witheridge sounds like the essay "a modest proposal"
Nerd Herder I wonder if you can get baby back ribs at "Mike's Grill"
David Witheridge I can honestly say that I did not expect anyone to get that
"Somehow things are both on fire, and flooded, all the time."
Yep, sounds like Australia to me.
I live in Australia and can assure you all that we would be proud to announce Oxtralia as our sister county
Aaron McDonald Well I just appointed myself Dictator of Australia and I now officially declare war on Oxtralia.
It's treason, then. AAAARRRGGGGHHH
Not the first time Australia had a weird war. Didn't y'all declare war on Emu's?
Logan Smith Yes and the Australians lost.... also DONT FIT ME IN WITH THOSE *AUSTRALIANS.* I said I am Dictator of Australia. The only Australians that will be leading my army are Mr. Sunday Movies AKA Goatman and Nick Mason.
Aaron McDonald EXCEPT FOR A FEW
Welcome to the OXtralia Dam! I am your dam guide, Cameron, please don't wander off the dam tour and please take all the dam pictures you want. Now are there any dam questions?
That is exactly what they do at the Hoover Dam.
Yeah, I remember the guide from the scene at the Hoover Dam in one of the National Lampoon movies!
Yes, sir! How old is this dam joke?
Yeah where can I get some dam bait 😂
Yes, mr.sir.dam guide , can I get some dam fries?
I haven't even watched it yet but I know what's gonna happen. Ellen will become some kind of maniacal dictator while Luke tries fruitlessly to stop her. I've seen this before. *Stares at Jane*
I think last time it was Luke who turned into the tyrant and started rationing air. Then mocking the protesters.
Concerned about his attentions falling upon her, Ellen was just swept up in the process.
FrodoTheDodo took a whole couple minutes for them to ruin literally everything. Right on schedule.
Ellen as a Dictator? that sounds like paradise.3:)
Toma Calin Stanescu Instead of executing people she'll be throwing free candy everywhere.

I like how the school swing set was just a few feet away from a plunging cliff face
Natural selection at its finest
I'm not sure if I would want to live in the town that is run by three tyrants who rule with an iron fist or a town run by two people who flood their own town
I'd move here. At least Jane doesn't have the only job in town! You can at least pay your bills here.
This is all very nice, but who would want to live in the boring comfort of OXtralia, when you can never know if you'll be evicted for no reason by your tyrannical mayor triad in Oxboxford? Honestly guys.
things are both on fire and flooded, pretty and ugly, well thought out and I want a stable so I can look at horses.
As an Australian living in Australia, i find OXtralia appropriately named considering Australia is often 'both on fire and flooded'
Luke and Ellen: [sensibly planning out roads and streets]
Outside Xbox: "GIANT O, GIANT X"
Why did I move here from Oxboxford?
because Oxboxford was an tyranical government that cared more for egotistical statues over basic services like water and power lines?
it has the opposite problem where oxboxford doesnt have clean water oxtralia has too much clean water
I'd say that Oxtralia is by far the preferable community, aside from the angry river spirits threatening to consume the town's supply of electricity.
I can't say I lack water. In fact it seems to have developed a mind of it's own. Is this a result of some experiment created on Ellen's brain farm?
@Timothy McLean And that half of the city they purposefully neglected while showering the other half with wonderful amenities. Perhaps they put all the refugees from Oxboxford there, and that's why they ignore it... that would explain their need for an "Oppression Office"...
The first lecture at the new uni will be how to properly build a hydroelectric dam without causing a massive flood
So, who wants Ellen and Luke to play Magicka? :>
Magicka supports up to 4 players, right? I say we bring Jane and either Mike or Andy as well.
Great idea. :)
As long as you're happy with 75% of total deaths being caused by friendly fire, yes, the game technically does support 4 players
Everybody upvote this guy. We need. Magicka. Let's plays. By. Oxboxtra.
Of course if they let Ellen play more KoAR, that'd be fine too.
Oh don't worry. Your regular Oxboxtra fans would be OVERJOYED with that 75% friendly fire death rate.
On a side note, I sure hope those two guys who upvoted my other comment also upvoted Sverker. Oxboxtra playing Magicka would simply be hilarious.
Luke: Theme Park! Airport! Fun!
Ellen: We need to do more sensible stuff...
Luke: Awwwww...
Think most of us are Luke at first then Ellen when it goes wrong
As an Australian, I appreciate how you've gone out of your way to include homages to the floods and fires we experience here. I trust come OXtralia's summer you'll arrange the traditional half-fire and half-flood with a couple of cyclones around the edges?
Those residents are just 'flooding' in ;)
0:59 why oh why must you condemn yourselves in this way. "We're going to keep deaths to a minimum."
Imagine if you will a space colony abandoned in the dead of night, 1000s fleeing in shuttles and craft to escape their tormentors only to find Luke and Ellen also dominate the world below them. Moving from the colony of their nightmares to a terror filled planet based habitat.
All we need now is a colony simulator under ground or under the sea (they were close this episode!) and it will prove OXBOX's reach knows no bounds.
You are safe nowhere NPCS.... NOWHERE!
YOU FOOLS YOU HAVE ANGERED THE RIVER SPIRITS!
Everything was peaceful in OXtralia, but everything changed when the water nation attacked
Is this the first time they have been sponsored, I kind of like it because it meant we got a great video like all of their videos and they get more money
Th1anonly I think it is, yeah. I really like how oxbox/oxtra handle sponsored content.
Not the first time for the whole team, Oxbox crew have made some other sponsored videos over years. Oxtra team for the first time, I think. And yeah, I do like it when they do it, too. They handle it great.
This city went just as well as OxBox's city. Dictatorships seem to be the norm here.
our over lords will hear you
are you trying to get us all killed?
You know it's going to be a good OXtra video when it literally opens with the words "What's on fire?"
I think living in Oxtralia would be a combination of feeling the crippling fear of death all day but at the same time the surroundings are looking so good that you can't help to just love them
I appreciate them being upfront about this being sponsored content. Another reason why this channel is great.
OXtralia -Flooded and on Fire
Play more! This was fun to watch and you actually have a good start.
That Aladdin reference was golden and made me smile, thank you, Ellen =)
OXtralia, twinned with Oxboxford: Please wade carefully through our definitely not at all flooding rivers.
Considering all the fires I can't decide if the crematorium is the most important building in town or the most redundant.
Andy: "Jane! Reports just came in. Oxtralia is doing a lot better than Oxboxford."
Jane: "Our normal bulldozer is designed for houses, not entire towns. Go get the big one."
This video is peak OXtra: careful planning and the best of intentions completely undermined by game mechanics
Im just glad the hospital isnt called a horritorium. The flooding and fire doesnt phase me
Best videos are when in the preview all you hear is Ellen laughing and Luke telling everyone everything will be okay, when clearly it won't be okay
'Why doesn't the government do anything about the fires?'
Luke responds by accidentally flooding the town and howling to summon the animals of the wild.
I actually injured myself laughing. XD
I'm not sure which made the local river spirits angrier-damming the river, or destroying the dam.
Welcome to OXtralia! The riverside town where house fires are put down by flood from the river and necessities are provided only when you need them (not before you need them).
Also, we have tons of electricity for a town that uses 4MW.
Oxtralia is dam mad......
Lenkrad Lankrad woah
Ahhhh Ellen's laugh just makes my day sooo much better.
I love how no matter how hard Luke and Ellen try they always mess up drastically!!
Please play more of this!!!!
Luke: Everything is fine in Oxtrailia today
Ellen: Everyone is dead Luke, Luigi got them.
Luke: But they aren't complaining
"Nobody panic..."
No reason to panic, it's not like a freakish water monster is towering over the dam, deciding which part of OXtralia to devour first. Luke was worried about people rioting, but who thought about nature rioting?
the dam... is backwards... And nobody has yet noticed.
No it's not.
Dams are supposed to have the curve pointed upstream so it divides the push of the water against the two sides instead of having the curve be pointed downstream where all of the weight is pushing on that one point of the structure.
Google "Curved dam" to see it for yourself.
Jonathan Schuett ii
You sound like you'd be amazingly good fun at parties...can I be your friend? =D
Because it's not. The dam is in the right way considering the current of the water. The problem is that it should be upstream, not downstream.
I'm sorry for people like you who can't take more that "first!" or "let Ellen play Kingdoms of Amalur" or "who's watching without socks?". Sorry to make you less dumb.
I think we now can safely say " Please do not let these people ever gain power, we actually enjoy living!"
Tsunami floods the entire city
Luke: Don't panic! Nothing to see here.
This is not just any crematorium, this is Mikes Grill!
The meat might taste a little funny.
As an Australian in my country we have the same amount of disasters as in your town
Oxtralia Mayors: We're here for you, citizens!
Oxboxford Mayors: (Sinister) We're for you, citizens...! *Cackles*
"Hey we're doing something to stop the fires!"
Nice to see how optimistic Luke is about the flood.
Today in civil engineering 101: If you wait long enough, the problem will fix itself.
I've just found a this channel and I love it
Oxtralia- a lovely place to live, if you happen to live on a boat
Brilliant start of the video with the Eastenders! 😂 Great video guys! x
'We have to connect both sides of the highway to the roadsystem'
Nice, Oxtra is already better at this than oxbox was :D
Anyone notice the children's play area is right next to the cliff edge...
the water mechanics are one of the reasons why i love this game
You guys have the best dam solutions for problems related to both electricity ánd fire
OMG MAGIKA!!! You guys have to play it, I love it
I tried going back to playing Sim City after playing Skylines that I picked up last year and it's damn near impossible to have the same amount of fun.
In OXboxford there was no water,in OXtrallia there is to much!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I liked this as soon as I head the Eastenders theme. Just for the pure Britishness of it.
Lol, you two =) Lots of fun to watch. Thanks!
Luke Westaway's managerial skills strike again!
I swear sometimes you videos are as good as a single dose of an antidepressant. Love you two 💕 Happy new year.
you completely missed the opportunity when the town flooded not to say well that's a dam problem
Love this video. Didn't really make it a typical sponsored content video which makes it awesome. Good job everyone!
OXtralia vs OXBOXFORD
I'm really glad that they're upfront on whether or not a video is sponsored
On fire, and flooded. You've pretty much managed to capture the essence of Australia right there.
the water blob strikes back ... I love this game
Seriously though, speaking as an Australian, things being both on fire AND flooded at the same time is the most accurate description of Australia during the summer time (especially over Christmas time).
OXtralia's resemblance to actual Australia is almost uncanny.
Drunk EastEnders 😂😂😂
And the sudden realisation that your town is flooding 12:17
Good work Luke always looking on the bright side.
are you gonna make a new episode on this
@9:41 and 12:20..... I could not stop laughing when Ellen's sides were splitting 😂😂😂
Ellen- "Let's make all our people happy"
Luke- "Let them burn!"
I love how patient Ellen sounds "No, not an airport"
Ellen talking about home insurance premiums for people living near water lol you can't get flood insurance when you live in flood prone areas Ellen
"Our town is going so much better than OXboxford, which was complete anarchy", At least OXboxford didn't periodically flood
MAKE THIS A FULL SERIES PLEEEEEAAAAAAAAASE
Sow how long do people think the stables lasted before they were both set on fire and flooded?
In which Ellen teaches us about home insurance premiums.
Laughed myself silly. Subscribed. Great vid guys
Ellen is way too happy when the city floods
'What's on fire?'
'I don't know, but everything's flooding!'
Now THAT'S how you start a video
"Unlimited Power!" - Expected a StarWars reference, got an Aladdin Reference instead, what a pleasant surprise!
Forget about the people starting an up rising. Seems like the water made a fine job of doing that.
The motto of OutsideXtra: "That is not quite right" xD
An elementary playground on the edge of a cliff near an overflowing river and a bunch of power lines...well that's a good idea if ive ever seen one
