Rocco made an absolute baller move in clearing any potential asterisks from that Jenga game. Props for taking Derrick's challenge and making it a clean W.
that was the most unclean W in the world. rocco would have knocked over the tower if he hadn't used two hands. he disqualified himself either way. rocco lost
Amazing show, how this jenga was better than last year ill never know Watching live and i thought every single move of that jenga game was the last from the 7th move in, cannot believe it went the way it did
Once again, awesome Jenga game. I do think 3 player Jenga favors one player over the other 2. In this particular game, Rocco had a substantial advantage, last year I think it was Derrick, because he always has access to the newly created 'legal row', and thus will always have at least 3 viable moves on his turn. Obviously, it's not like the advantage is so great it can't be overcome by the other players, but it does become frustrating the longer the game goes on, because the other players do run out of options eventually and lose by default. My house rule to fix this would be a 'double turn' special privilege the most disadvantaged player can use. Take this game for example, with the turn order of Rocco, Derrick, then Garrett. Garrett's turn always creates a new row of 3 legal bricks for Rocco to choose from. If he chooses, Garrett can choose to do a 2nd brick pull after his first. It's obviously risky, but the reward is he becomes the new 'favored' player, because his turn will be the one where the new legal row to pull from is made. The player just before him could take their double move, however, and so the result of this house rule is that the favored position in turn order will strategically rotate, and everyone will have a chance at having fresh options when their turn comes around at some point(s) in the game. Alternatively, everyone could choose to pull 1 or 2 bricks on their turn. Easier to remember, probably less fair.
I was so happy to be there during the stream, and now I get to relive it with the VOD! Thanks for all of the effort you guys put into this. Looking forward to the third annual.
This was such a great stream, not a single dull moment. That Connect Four should have been best of 5 though, Rocco was still shaken from the Jenga round and couldn't think straight!
You guys have no idea how much that intro meant to Sean, even if he says he was "pumped about it" to you in private, thats 1/10 as excited as he actually was. You smashed it, Sean.
Would love to get a tour video of the Video booth. I know Johnny mentioned the ATEM glitching up and that piqued my curiosity on the equipment being run up their.
Every DnD group has some quarantine lockdown story and I hate it. The whole point for RPGs is to escape reality and not think about Covid for just one dang afternoon.
rocco beating champion derrick in a grueling hour long jenga match only to get bodied by garrett in 5 min in connect 4 is a greek tragedy
my favorite part by far, we needed that comic relief after that Jenga movie. i laughed my ass off

Thank you! Updated the video with these chapters!
imagine losing $1000 in a 1m20s game of connect four
Jenga was the most insane unadulterated competition the world has seen this year thus far.
Shawn mispronouncing Rocco's name had me in stitches
Knowing that Shawn has always dreamed of carrying the olympic torch makes it so fucking sweet that his friends made these olympic games
"I've covered everything: wars... quinceanera's"
Yeah thats the reporting i will only ever trust
I don’t know what it was but seeing Rocco do the pinch in Jenga was therapeutic every time
I think that the added risk never affecting him was incredible. Absolute Chad pinches.
Garret’s self portrait made my day oh my god
Rocco doing the Vulcan Pinch to put the tower back to sleep. A true master of his craft.
Johnny with the ring swing, absolute legend.
Derrick actually being late due to actual stomach cramps is like a dream come true for the boys as far as their comedy goes lmao
Rocco said "he is out doing whatever or some shit..." He was literally shitting Out The Ass.
Derrick: we've reached the end game
meanwhile, an hour more of jenga gameplay
45:47 shawn screaming in garrett's face off mic
This and Hell-festival have become the two must-see streams of the year for me.
Don't forget 64X!
Amazing show, how this jenga was better than last year ill never know
Watching live and i thought every single move of that jenga game was the last from the 7th move in, cannot believe it went the way it did
And especially when Rocco had to redo a movement actually insane
Oh thank god I was avoiding spoilers for this on Twitter like the plague
My favourite event of the year!
I sincerely hope there's one next year too!
my favourite event of the year and im getting married in a month
Most intense connect 4 game possibly ever put to film
Taskmaster.... is a great game to watch! You guys need to do like a patreon ep on Taskmaster!
Absolutely ever minute of the D&D was worth it once you get to 4:40:00 and you get to see the absolute ASSAULT the power of Mimzy provides to Rocco.
the giant jenga was such a blast to watch, hopefully there'll be more to come to have something worth looking forward to every february

you guys are nailing it with these all day stream events
Every segment was so good this year. Excellent DMing by Mason too!
Shaun's absolute defeat in Kendama is hilarious.
shawn apologizing to his family live on air had me on the floor laughing
I love how rocco tries to cheer up Shawn whenever he doesn't win at something. "You actually did really good."
6:59:46 Rocco busts out the best joke I've ever heard, and barely gets a single laugh 🥲
that was the worst joke ever. i literally groaned after that
@@user-nh1og5hy1u I literally groaned after your mom kissed me on the lips, got ya buddy.
Excellent ending to an excellent show
Fucking sweet. Poor Rocco had half a brain cell left after all the stress.
I was so happy to be there during the stream, and now I get to relive it with the VOD! Thanks for all of the effort you guys put into this. Looking forward to the third annual.
I continue to be blown away by how fun and creative everyone is. I'm glad this became a reoccurring competition
Was nice seeing Shawn run the torch an extra time for good measure!
Yess!!! Finally! I live in UK so I had to go to sleep during the DND game. I can finally see the ending!
PlagueofGripes voice: Dark Souls has a Board Game you ask?
It does! It's not very fun singleplayer, however.
Shawn running with the torch at the beginning is ultimately proof that manifesting your goals really works
Beautiful show guys
Great editing johnny
And congratulations Garret
6 hours in - LOVE the boys and their production here! Hope they keep doing these every year!
the four boyz crowding around the Lightning Reactions at the very end was a heartwarming ending
bro, my anxiety levels during Jumbo Jenga were at an all time high, where do I mail you my doctor bill?
Imo the dnd should be a seperate stream so u dont have to stress it, and remember more
Number 1 Yearly Board Game Podcast on the Internet.
Hmm, Idk... Ill maybe allow Shawn to run the torch... Only if he says Howard Stern references the whole distance.
I want Rocco to know that I appreciate the Nick Arcade move sound at 2:39:10
HAHA THANK YOU
@@roccobotte of course! 🍻
wow. Apple hasn’t made an iPlug yet, but if they did I’d certainly have met my daily kegel goal after watching this
I've never grinded my teeth so hard through a match of jenga.
Really fun show, guys! Jenga was INSANE.
Even better than last year! You guys should definitely do more charity streams, they are super fun
that was amazing
This was such a great stream, not a single dull moment. That Connect Four should have been best of 5 though, Rocco was still shaken from the Jenga round and couldn't think straight!
Shoutsout to Mason!!!
Quality content guys. Keep it up
Derrick the TNT champion forever
I had plans but I guess I'm watching UA-cam for the next 7 hours
when I used to play don't break the ice as a kid i'd try and hit it as hard as i could to knock like 3 or 4 pieces out
Jenga ASMR with Shawn
Jenga X Tenga
the poetic justice of that ending lol its "perfection"
1:24:50
Derrick's AEW origin point
You guys have no idea how much that intro meant to Sean, even if he says he was "pumped about it" to you in private, thats 1/10 as excited as he actually was. You smashed it, Sean.
Would love to get a tour video of the Video booth. I know Johnny mentioned the ATEM glitching up and that piqued my curiosity on the equipment being run up their.
Strange how the "one hand only" rule was so strictly adhered to yet, the "can only touch the chosen block" rule was left out in the Jenga round.
Y'all should've made a "Kevin fucked us" shirt a long time ago after that Christmascast
I love how in Jenga it’s just “are you kidding me” and “no way” the entire game lmfao
My favorite part of this 7+ hours was at 0:10
Just at how hilarious "Sabertooth Tiger and Triceratops form the legs" sounds out of context.
Great content, everyone! Thanks for putting this on!
Mad respect to Rocco for his thousand dollar pinch trick
Stoked for this
Yo shoutout to all my homies that played the Jenga custom game on Halo 3 back in the day. That was my shit.
The Jenga segment was sponsored by Tenga
2:20:05 BOOOOOOOOOO!!! That's a chump move from the champion! Booooo!
I legit thought Shawn drew himself as a wide-eyed anime boy with a Naruto headband 59:40
I actually never realized that Derrick was so short compared to the others!
Love a short king.
the electric shock game was so funny 🤣
Legendary Jenga game.
Forget more bug stunts lets get more fire stunts
PELO? Oh shit! Please get him on the podcast/Mega Strange
Congrats Garrett!
I thought Shawn was going to win.
That jenga match was nucking futs
@Sr Pelo what a nice guy AAAH
Dang derrick if you went middle block then it would've been a tie perfect game!
Oof, that connect four game is hard to watch. Good thing I blinked and missed the whole thing this time.
Derek, me and my whole family got stomach bugs over the weekend. everyone barfed and shat liquid. there is definitely something going around
What the hell was that final round haha
Helllll yeah I'm not getting any work done today
why does the break music remind me of pretty vacant by sex pistols haha
yo shoutouts to fucking johnny
I disagreed with the cup switching 😔
Derek made an illegal jenga block move. How did nobody notice? 6:14:18
1:03:55 that’s hilarious 😂
Vrock Hudson
🏅🏅🏅
I thought Roccos whiny personality was a act but I realize that’s just how he is and I’m disappointed how annoying he really is
Some of this shit is scuffed
is it just me or has mega4 become an indie fashion brand?
Every DnD group has some quarantine lockdown story and I hate it. The whole point for RPGs is to escape reality and not think about Covid for just one dang afternoon.
1:53:01 No Johnny, you can do something about that- it's your fucking job.
(edit) just kidding zee!
