So… I hate to be that guy. But I am “that guy.” It would take 45 days for the Vita drawer to be at least half filled, and at no point would be exactly half full. Doubling the total amount of games would be one thing, but we’re doubling the amount entering the drawer. So day Zero, there are 0. Day One, there is 1. Day Two, there are 3. Day Three, there are 7. Day Four, there are 15. The amount of games at EOD day 45 would be double day 44’s PLUS ONE. So you would only have 49.999% (only going out 3 decimal places) of the total on Day 44, and you will be more than 50% once the next game is added.
Blessing explained it wrong. He should have said Greg adds the sufficient amount to double the quantity, not that he adds the double of what he had. I have ADHD, I also hated that explanation but totally understood the logic of the logical problem in a micro second like any kid would xD
I got the answer right because I understood what blessing was going for. But it was described wrong. Blessing mentioned that the amount doubling is the amount being added, not the amount in the drawer. Day 1, 1. Day 2, 2. Day 3, 4. If it were double the amount in the drawer, it would be day 3, 6. All that being said, this was an amazing show Bless and love what you are doing this season.
Just a suggestion, but 20pts questions during Round Robbin should be 10pts when they're passed onto another contestant. They've got more time to think about the answer and get multiple choice.
I think the vita math question is not correct. The answer 44 would be correct if the number of games in the drawer doubled every day, but not if the number of games being ADDED doubles every day.
Yeah. Doubling the new amount each day would give you sums of 1, 3, 7, 15, 31, etc. Simply doubling the amount of games in the drawer each day would mean you have 1, 2, 4, 8, 16. So personally I would have also guessed 43, though I don't know how you actually solve it without doing the math manually on a calculator.
This^^ I was on board with Blessing’s answer until I heard the word problem the 4th time on the phone with Kyle. Because the contents are not what doubles, but what’s put in does, the halfway point wouldn’t actually be the day before capacity gets hit. Let’s say you hit capacity on day 6 rather than 45. 1+2+4+8+16+32 = 63 So halfway would be 31.5 games. Because there’s no such thing as a half game, you have a problem - because of day one being 1 and there being not ability to double into an odd number after you went to 2 on day 2. So, it is impossible to get to a place where the halfway point is a whole number. Because of that, you reach the halfway point on the same day as at capacity point. But only on a technicality. In fact, it’s impossible to fill the drawer halfway if the drawer can reach capacity with the sequence laid out.
Yeah, I was thinking while listening to it that they're going to say 44, because the real answer would be far too challenging to do in your head. After 44 days, there would be (2^44 - 1) games, which, if you double, is (2^45 - 2), and the actual number of games after 45 days is (2^45 - 1) games. In fact, there will never be a day where it is half full as, let's say, on the nth day it is half full, then there would be 2^n - 1 games in the drawer. Then if we multiply this by 2 to find the total number of games to fill the drawer we get 2^(n+1) - 2 which is less than the number of games in the drawer on the day after it is half full which would be 2^(n+1) - 1, which is a contradiction, hence it could never be half full.
It seems like Greg’s friend understood the problem correctly but then maybe wasn’t confident enough to call out Blessing when he revealed the answer, so instead he just went along with it. JUSTICE FOR KYLE
They didn’t give him his 20pts his first correct answer, then the second question is the one you’re referring to and they gave him 40 on that one to make up for it
For teh vita drawer question, the answer should be 45th day? Cause on 44th day it would have less than half (around a third or more of the drawer full) and then then you add double of that portion on the 45th day to make up the remaining 2/3rds of the drawer
i got the 45 day Vita drawer right away. it doubles, so 1/2 is day before. For anyone wondering. 45 days of doubling each day. On the 45h day, you would add 17,592,186,044,416 (thats 17 Trillion) Vita games to the drawer. On that day, you would have 35,184,372,088,831 (35 trillion) games in total in the drawer. thats a big drawer.
This isn’t exactly right. At the very least, it’s sort of worded oddly, or maybe incorrectly. It’s cumulative, so at the end of every day, he’ll always have slightly less games in the drawer total than DOUBLE what he added on that day, except for day 1. Let’s limit it to day 4 and the same logic will apply. It takes 4 days for the drawer to fill. On what day was the drawer half full. Well after day 4 there’s 15 games in the drawer. Half of 15 is 7.5 but half games don’t exist. So on what day did we cross from 7 into 8? Well after day 3 there were 7 games in there so the drawer was half full on the Same day it was full, day 4. Same will apply for day 45. We could also do this with algebra instead but it would take longer :)
In fact, because Greg started by adding 1 game, that means every day the total number of games in the drawer would be odd, therefore, if the drawer is full with an odd number of Vita games, it'd be IMPOSSIBLE to be half full. (After 45 days it'd have over 32 TRILLION games BTW). Even if you say Greg adds 2 the first day, 4 the second day, etc. the total number of games in the drawer after however many days is more than twice the total it was yesterday, so technically the right answer in this case would be very early on the 45th day after Greg has only added a comparatively small amount of games.
Doesn't the last part of that math question invalidate the first half of the question? Like a red herring to throw you off. It takes 45 days to fill the drawer. How many days would it take to fill half of the drawer would just be 22.5? I wouldn't question it if something as obvious as a chest from Sea of Thieves wasnt credited correctly lol
I checked out that GQ top 100 list. There're lists that i don't agree with, but i can still respect them, but there's this GQ one, that i don't agree with, and don't respect it either.
This is another YT show that I've seen recently where the expected answer to the math question solved another similar - but very different - problem. People putting math questions in have to make sure that they're worded 100% correctly, because otherwise everyone involved looks like an ass 😂 Not everyone is ready to call out the producer on being incorrect because you just assume that you got it wrong somehow and move on.
Wild that Pokemon Red and Blue are in that top 100 list. Influential? Absolutely. But not top 100 in quality. Just take off those rose tinted glasses people voting and look at them. They’re good for what they did starting the series but they aren’t anywhere near the best Pokemon game let alone top 100 of all games
@@skylarforslund3315 Im not gonna pretend I havent forgotten most of the stuff I have learned, but I thought most people would remember that photosynthesis is the proces where Oxygen is produced.
The amount of answer errors in this episode is starting to pain me. For the treasure chest guessing the second round #4 was Sea of Thieves NOT immortal Phoenix rising. For the math question about the number of vita games Greg has the answer based on the wording of the question is absolutely not 44. Luckily neither error affected the scores but man it hurts to not fact check

To clarify, this is 2x+1, not 2(x+1).
Blessing explained it wrong. He should have said Greg adds the sufficient amount to double the quantity, not that he adds the double of what he had. I have ADHD, I also hated that explanation but totally understood the logic of the logical problem in a micro second like any kid would xD
To fix it he needs to start with 1 then add 1 the first day, ending with 2. Then he adds 2, then 4, then so on.

I see others have made the same comments, so I apologize for piling on… not my intent.
This is truly the first episode I would have crushed

I learned so much this episode that I will probably forget tomorrow
Was the number 4 chest on the last group not sea of thieves? Am I losing my mind?
It absolutely was, Blessing messed up lol
It was i wanted to comment about that too.
I thought the exact same thing!! Glad I'm not alone haha
It is from sea of thieves. seaofthieves.wiki.gg/wiki/Ashen_Captain%27s_Chest
Yes it is even sitting on the deck of a ship
12:22 this WHOLE time I've been screaming "44!" 😂 wtf lol
And he just said 43. NOOOOOOOO!
Loved this episode! It’s so great to see y’all delve into the variety of game show concepts that are out there!
You’re doing fantastic work Blessing!
This was one of my favorites. I love it when they do stuff thats not video games, and it just screws with the guys.
Photosynthesis is done mostly in the organelle “Chloroplasts” which is surely where Greg was getting tripped up
Greg got 40 points instead of 20 for the first question in Mad Categories, I smell collusion with the Boss Baby (loved this episode btw)
They didn’t give him his 20pts his first correct answer, then the second question is the one you’re referring to and they gave him 40 on that one to make up for it
Screaming at the screen so much today 😂
The math question with doubling vita games was incorrect because you are adding games to the previous days total.
I have realized that game show down is the only KF show I watch anymore. It's always so good! Love starting my week with it.
For teh vita drawer question, the answer should be 45th day? Cause on 44th day it would have less than half (around a third or more of the drawer full) and then then you add double of that portion on the 45th day to make up the remaining 2/3rds of the drawer
No because the 45th day the drawer is full according to Bless. So the day before is half
You are correct @CresentSoul I said the same in another comment :)
Been listening to the podcast forever. Finally getting on the youtube train. Love yalls content.
i got the 45 day Vita drawer right away. it doubles, so 1/2 is day before. For anyone wondering. 45 days of doubling each day.

Isnt that wrong if he is ADDING double every day? Not making the total in the drawer double everyday?

We could also do this with algebra instead but it would take longer :)
Its also about 35,184,372,088,821 more games than are actually available on the Vita *ba dum tss*
(I actually love the Vita)
My favorite part is that it is not a math question, but a comprehension that hides behind shades of math to fool you!
Nice but that would be the 46th day according to that math 😇 he has 17t on the 45th day
I LOVE this show. I look forward to watching it every week.
This is now the 2nd time Greg has tried to get Kyles’ help on a math question. Off topic now this 😂
I’m still watching after round one. I’m a real fan
Lol! Blessing, you gotta put a trigger warning on this episode for us nerds Ooooooweeee
Chest #4 in round 2 of GeoBlessr was 100% Sea Of Theives right?
love the change of questions on this episode
Blessings is innovating the hell out of this show! Bro needs to phone it in for once 😂
The 45 days to fill a draw with vita games question I got straight away 😅 I thought that was easy
This show brought me back to Kinda Funny

This was such a great episode. Loved the little game shake ups.

Wait, did Blessing refer to them as a squeaker? I've been calling them squeakers since the CoD MW1 days.
It’s weird if these grown men had fifth grade friends. 😅😂
As a PC gamer, I never know their console questions. But this nerdy show? Would have known them all
I was gonna say midichlorians for the plant question and couldn’t get it out of my head haha
Normally a audio listener love the game logos geo blesser brill. Also the vita one I was screaming at the screen 😂
i really enjoyed the math questions tbh

Yo shout out Andy for knowing Las Cruces.
Doesn't the last part of that math question invalidate the first half of the question? Like a red herring to throw you off.
It takes 45 days to fill the drawer. How many days would it take to fill half of the drawer would just be 22.5?
I wouldn't question it if something as obvious as a chest from Sea of Thieves wasnt credited correctly lol
It's ridiculous that no one got round 3 lol
