Yogscast trying to play OpenTTD and failing miserably!
Hooray for descriptive topic titles!

We received roughly 5000 extra unique visitors because of their broadcast. Not too shabby for a livecast about a random game 
For sure it was something else than their usual Minecraft stuff

That was hilarious, although the excessive use of profanities could easily put some people off.

Re: Yogscast trying to play OpenTTD and failing miserably!
Heh, that was fun to watch.
I hope that the other parts are put up soon as I only got to watch the last part live.
So yeah, how about download counts?
Drury,
personally I do not mind but the first post should perhaps mention the use of strong language in the video.

Yeah hilarious indeed, especially the part where one says "I thought you knew this Game?" after the other one discovered he build his station to far away from the powerplant and coal was doing pointless circles.Supercheese wrote: That was hilarious, although the excessive use of profanities could easily put some people off.

Re: Yogscast trying to play OpenTTD and failing miserably!
Amount of downloads is very hard to tell. Many will use their repository, which we cannot see. And download amounts always heavily fluctuate in general, so I cannot really make any claim one way or the other about the amount of downloads.

Those videos remind me of my first games... I wouldn't call it failing, they are just new to the game.

Re: Yogscast trying to play OpenTTD and failing miserably!
That second part posted is the part I saw earlier ... seems like a big part of their session did not end up in the two vids.
Anyone happens to have links to the complete session?
I agree Terkhen, it is not their learning the game I found hilarious but rather their comments that make it worth watching the vids. Somehow I was expecting a few My Little Ponys (TM) to turn up doing "diggy diggy hole"
Also ... "The Goat Boat".
Nice reference to this:

I hope no-one minds me advertising this here, I think it is a nice way of doing something that has long term effects.
No, I have no connection with either Yogscast or Oxfam whatsoever.

^^^ lolz.
Whatever, I prefer to fool myself thinking that I made a difference somehow as I do not have the means to donate at the moment myself (first feed my own kids).
Since I put up the link here the amount raised has risen with almost 1000 pounds.
Edit at 22:25
Way over a 1100 now ...
And OpenTTD is mentioned more than once ...
Edit at 23:00
Almost 1300 now.

Almost 1650 (making a total of 12190.66)
Edit at 00:25
Almost 1800
I'll update this tomorrow ... time for bed now.

Re: Yogscast trying to play OpenTTD for charity
I was going to edit my previous post but then decided to reply for the sole purpose of bringing this topic back to the first page of the active topics ... I assume that is bumping.
My ps was me apologizing for this as I know very well that this is in general not appreciated (as per forum rules).
Edit at 13:12
Currenly 12695.10 ... I wonder if the number will overflow when they reach the target.

Re: Yogscast trying to play OpenTTD and failing miserably!
Well, remember that playing OTTD was not their only 'fundraiser'
They're doing several different things in the run up to christmas
Besides, the Yogscast have around 1.3 million subscribers, so even without any large number of fundraiser related videos, they probably would've got to their target in a fairly fast fashion

Re: Yogscast trying to play OpenTTD and failing miserably!
I am well aware of what you are saying LordAro. 
I can only hope that what I am doing here makes a (however small it may be) difference.
I am not delusional enough to believe that I am making THE difference.
In the meantime ... 13000 now.
/me has this mental picture of 520 goats going maaaaa, maaaaa, maaaaa, ... all at the same time.
