What Is The Weight? | Put Complexity Aside, Who Will Come Out Victorious? | Board Game Challenge

0:01 hello hello everybody my name is IIA and my name is Tyler together we make up c a couple that loves to play board games and today we're standing and we'll be doing an activity exactly a challenge one might say we are going to be talking about the weight of games now complexity is one thing that we discuss quite frequently on this channel it is weight is also something that we talk about because weight can be complexity but weight in a physical form is something we don't usually mention and that's what we're here to talk to you about today and what a better way to talk to you about it than through a challenge form to see who indeed is a superior weight Master Ilia or Tyler who knows that's why we're about to do this challenge we've got a scale in front of us and we're going to have we're going to do seven rounds uh where each round is going to be dedicated to one PB 2 lb 3 lb and so on now I will apologize that we are using pounds the less Superior measurement so to all those kilogram folks and gram folks you're better I know but in Canada we often use pounds which is so unfortunate we we use um Imperial and Metric all is aess time it's a mess yeah so anyways the scale is in pounds we're going to do seven rounds and we're going to have two two different types of winners One winner

1:32 will be determined by who wins the most of the seven rounds and then the other winner will be determined by who has the smallest difference between the entirety of the games so we'll track how far off we are for each round and we'll add that up yeah yeah and uh maybe it'll be the exact same person maybe it won't and if it isn't we'll have to do some kind of tie break and loser does the dishes loser does the dishes no I'm kidding we will both do the dishes together mhm anyways hopefully that gives you a rundown of what we're about to try um we're going to start the with round one we have to grab a one pound game each of us and um we haven't done this before there's no testing we just got this scale and thought it would be a fun idea and we're about to see how great or terrible it goes do we have a concept of weight we'll find out maybe maybe not all right let's do it let's do what round one we have brought back our games yes I have the Tranquility the ascent and I have chicken oh chicken's fun chicken do you want do you want to do the honors okay I will do the honors I describe this beautiful Cooperative game in which you're trying to build a oh we're going to have to explain the game as well we don't have to explain okay Moment of Truth are we ready Tranquility is well I think I'm going to be pretty far off too then 54 lb not quite a

3:02 pound and chicken is 384b all right well that was a poor showing for both of us I would say but I have claimed the first round and I've got some some uh catching up to do round two two lbs round two I have Kodama Forest I have Kyoto NOCO I feel like I was off so I went for a big game mhm uh I feel like this is going to be over 2 lb um I'll go first then Kodama Forest is I think you have to do it this way oh okay yeah that's probably that's pretty close 1.

3:49 n31 all right beat that well I guess you could reuse this game for round three no well looks like Tyler has round two uh pretty close to 2 lbs pretty close to 2 lb that's going to be difficult so I need to work my way to catch up because the difference is going to be not great exactly okay let's keep going round four round three three so we're trying to get to three lbs's grabbed our society and I've grabbed my city all right my City My City Is At

4:33 I am crushing it all right why do we even do these I'm going to write it down cuz we need to make sure 98 all right I got this wait what was it 2.56 four five 6 4 done I feel like this isn't even fair at this point well I I I started off slow but here we are1 lb how am I supposed to beat that yeah does it say how much it is on the box no no no my city was a good guess actually I'm going to check it what it says how complex the game is it doesn't say how uh it says it weighs 3 lb no liar I'm kidding liar rude all right on to round four I almost dropped the game so I'll put this here Tyler keeps using the old games for reference well we didn't say that wasn't a rule all right I grabbed Arc Nova Ilia grabbed Castles by the Sea we are at 4B games winner goes first winner goes first ah this would have been a perfect 5B game 4775

6:05 4775 now it's me yikes I'm feeling okay about this one actually I knew Arc NOA was too too heavy 4 4489 I won one what you won the last or the first one too yeah so now it is 22 now it's 2 two but my differences are not doing well for me uh that one hurts me a little bit the 4.77 five but that's okay let's uh move on to the next one round five round five what do you have I have R Coco deluxe edition I have Planet unknown you get to go first I do oh I knew that one was going to be too heavy what are we at 6.97 three I'm not very good at this game I think Planet unknown will also be a little too heavy but this is 5 lb yeah ah shoot but I still win so that's nice five 6.12 0 I feel like I have a good concept and I feel confident and it just destroys my confidence you would roko is actually what I was thinking about grabbing for seven well too bad you can now now I cannot so you've ruined that for me oh well but we are on I'm very close round six round six round six this is where we get the games from

7:38 now we're just disappearing okay so Tyler one so he starts we're looking for six lbs and I brought Boku so and Boku sits at 5.43 4 I knew it oh no it feels a little bit heavier than my game dominance species let's see it oh no 4 point that would have been a perfect five pounder I'm not very good at this. 947 so I'm just saying that puts me at the winner of the most rounds but will Tyler win in terms of the overall Victory and we still have to do this seven pound game and that could be the the game let's check it out let's see space base Liz boa all right 7 lbs so my logic was roko mhm is probably similar production and and it was pretty close to seven so let's fingers crossed all right I will go with space Bas s lb here we go no that's still pretty good only a pound difference 5924 all right and then Moment of Truth oh that's cool 45252 but is it enough to bring me close let me do some math and I can figure it

9:08 out for you and let's maybe just do the thing where we speed it up nice one point uh 076 all right um point the math is in we done it but you would have known all along cuz the math is tracking on the side of the board screen yeah that's true now you know that I'm indeed the double loser of our weight challenge that 1.9 or or like the what was it round five you R Coco really hurt you well I thought it was 5 lbs I mean I have no I have no sense of weight it's just such a clearly you do I have a better sense of weight than you do but I was still 4 lbs like 4 pound difference like there was that much of a difference that was yeah so that is our weight challenge for today did you enjoy the video yeah let us know down in the comments below let us know what maybe what games you would have picked it's hard to actually like conceptualize it in the comments but if you enjoyed it please give us that Thumbs Up Hit That subscribe button if you're new here and maybe we'll do another challenge like this again and if you're interested in trying it out yourself I have a modification for you you should write down the weights on a piece of paper and then draw one so you don't go in order so kind of because with us it was easier to be like this one's a little kind of guge like is it double weight and you can't touch the other games after you're done with them yeah the other thing I think I would have done too is maybe not done one through seven cuz I think some of the games like like uh the

10:39 terraforming Mars big box how how heavy is that the frost a box how heavy is that I think that's 23b we could get into the 20s if we really wanted to this could be a long challenge yeah exactly but that is it for today thanks so much for watching now for question of the day how much does your favorite board game weight oh you will leave the weight down below and Tyler will guess what your game is since he won the game no no no no tell us the game and the weight if you really really want to you can also just let us know your favorite game down in the comments below until next time though we will see you later bye
