    3:47 you managed to upset North American English speakers and non-North American English speakers over the course of 10 seconds with Aluminium/Aluminum there.

    if you think about it killing those rock bands is kind of comical, imagine if vietnam executed aerosmith or led zeppelin in the 70s or something

    I know you pre-record these several in a row, question for you... around half way through this video would it have been worth it to buy John Rockefeller for the +3 Oil per turn? You had enough gold on Turn 235 (around 11k)

    Just a heads-up: I think it's good to say in the video how you pick Patron names. Is it random or have they given the most money?
    I don't have Patreon because I'm poor, so sorry if you tell them there. But I think it's good to say in the video anyway.

      Pretty sure it's based on when the name change is requested.

      late reply.
      but to answer your question:
      there are three tier options (price charged each month) Prince £3, King £8 , Emperor £14.50.
      the King Tier and above allows you a random chance to have your name selected to be used in an up coming game.
      So it would happen when either PotatoMc-whiskey remembers or is reminded by the community 🙂
