this is my first attempt at a scripted, video essay style project in awhile! i think i'm getting better and quicker at these types of videos, so let me know if you'd like to see more of these mixed in with my other stuff from time to time :) hope you guys enjoy!
I remember in January of this year all my levels randomly became popular and like 4 of them got 10k+ plays and a keep run level got 25k+ plays, which caused me to get #1 weekly and to be on the world leaderboard
Stuff like this makes me wish I followed more people live, but I like RUclips's system more than twitch's and these sorts of things just happen and then they're unexpected and they're not gonna happen again
Honestly we're all so used to having everything we want instantly with the internet, when you don't have it you're forced to use your own creativity. It's great sometimes.
How in the world do you define the word "Accidentally"? You accidentally became the #49th Mario Maker Player in the world you then purposefully worked to become the #1.
raysfire's most recent stream (from Sunday night) actually ended early - he was doing the Iron Bros. challenge and suddenly the stream crashed. I don't know if he went live again (I went to bed about 15 minutes after it went offline) but I think his internet went offline again. He'll probably stream again tonight (about 45 minutes after this comment)
No joke. 10secs into watching this video, my wifi went out on my phone. It didn't take 12 hours to come back but only a few mins. But I could not help but enjoy the irony.
Here's a summary of how maker points work Likes from your levels get you maker points. All level likes combined, each maker point requires exponentially more and more likes. Also, on each level you need increasingly more and more likes for maker points. Therefore it's better to get like 10+ levels to get 100 likes than it is to get 2-3 levels with 1000 likes when if it was linear, you'd need 1 1k like level vs 10 100 likes, though it's not too bad to get few really popular levels as total likes of all levels also count. All-time points top leaderboards have like 30k pts at the top with, because it gets exponentially harder to get more points even though they might have 100x more likes than you at 5k maker points. For weekly points, from what I have seen, each gained point counts for that leaderboard for a week. If you were gaining 100 pts a day, you'd have 700 at max. But all points are equal in weekly. Whether you gained 5k more points from 20k or from 0. If you have gained points slowly over time, or have failed to get #1 and instead got top 100 a couple times at max, it is nearly impossible to pull it off again on the same account. Here's a bit of my experience: There was this trend couple years ago of simple platforming levels with just semi-random falling platforms and sawblades. They got super popular with very little effort. I tried it once, and after a couple weeks the level blew up to 3k+ likes overnight. It was the first level that blew up and I was 2nd in weekly maker points, just crazy. Only beaten by someone who then happened to get their level to top 10 ALL-TIME. I tried making a 2nd level similar to my first but it only kept me in top 100 for a week more. I can't really get to top weekly points anymore because it is exponentially harder.
Hello, I am Mr. Fusion Man. There are no fusions in this video. Also I thought I would mention ciarenni posted a"secret" chat message that tubers wouldn't be able to see. Nothing can be secret.
TL;DW: - His Internet connection dropped out and they couldn't play other people's levels. - He had a (US-only, from what I can tell) sponsor for his live stream, and he had to fall back to mobile data in order to continue streaming and meet the sponsorship requirements. The connection was out for 12 hours. - His mobile plan has mobile hotspot functionality locked out (seems to be a typical thing with USA telcos to charge separately for that). - Because he couldn't connect to Nintendo Switch Online, he had to either play story mode or use Make mode. He did the latter, but as he had an expert with him, he handed the controller to him. - Once he was able to reconnect, he uploaded the level. - He made another level himself and upload, and the game began recommending both levels to other players who were playing online, much like how RUclips somehow decided to recommend this video to me. I wish RUclips would tell me what video I watched that made it recommend it to me. - He got a top medal for the week - He decided to try making levels in 15 minutes each, making 4 levels, and they all got recommended to other online players. - Near the end of the stream, he decided to make one last level for the night, and got a ribbon award. - All of those levels were likely recommended, nabbing him the top spot and unlocking the 'Royal attire' creator outfit option.
I comment variations of the same comment on all of your levels and you still havent seen them (also please help my ears are ringing) (also also i saw you were #1 and that you were grinding levels one night when i was about to go to bed which is when i decided to comment on all of them, good job man)
when i saw this i was like "raysfire??? like 'tf2 hud tutorials' raysfire????" and sure enough, i look at the playlist tabs and there it is. good on ya mate.

Scripted videos are fun, all the context without needing to ask around lol
Good video :)
I'd love to see more! Very well done!

That's not an accident rays. That's premeditated. Please never try to defend yourself in court
To be fair, the first two levels that started him on this journey were in fact an accident. The rest of it was planned.
its called a title that people would click on
@@thatwaterriver3824 So using words wrong is how you get people to click? Got it.
@@Syranovæ exactly lol
How is his internet going out premeditated? How does making a clickable title mean he shouldn’t try to defend himself in court?
I love this style of video! I would happily watch more about the various challenges you do on stream since I'm not often able to watch live
Stuff like this makes me wish I followed more people live, but I like RUclips's system more than twitch's and these sorts of things just happen and then they're unexpected and they're not gonna happen again
Could happen again, it happened once and nothing is stopping a similar course of events from happening twice
Honestly we're all so used to having everything we want instantly with the internet, when you don't have it you're forced to use your own creativity. It's great sometimes.
And that was when the unthinkable happened... his internet went out.
*summoning salt music plays*
The most important part of it is to have Panga as your good friend, just so to kick it start. PANGA!!!!!!!!!! and kudos Ray!
Penga is the best tutor ever he doesn’t even waste 1 month for something or nothing only few minutes and raysfire is the best mm bulider
i loved this video style, please do more of these!
Thank you for making real levels instead of drowning the servers with fake levels which take less effort.
And congratulations for the achievement
Me who didn't realise there even was a leaderboards tab, and ignored it forever
That ending conclusion made me physically coil with laughter 10:38

i like this style of video, you should do it more tbh
loved this style of video man!! excited for more (hopefully) in the future
When in doubt,
Let your internet go out
I love how at 12:34am I'm fast asleep but that's the time you and Panga decide is best to start creating levels 😂
God damn ray ur such a wholesome guy my dude. Congrats
It gave me the motivation to create some new levels, Thanks You !
Weekly is so exploitable, pretty much the only reliable way to get the first place outfits lol
0:46 live panga reaction:
Trying for the hell of it isn't the same as doing it accidentally...
What a saga! Happy for you. Smiley face emoji
This also happened to me and like you, it was completely by chance. I feel that the system that puts levels into popular is pretty much unpredictable.
Unfortunately, the game promotes little timmies and 'refreshing' course creators more than some traditional course creators.

Just an all around great, uplifting video. Congratulation, Kingsfire.
Underrated youtuber man
This video gave off the same vibe as azula going to the earth kingdom for her family only to mess around and takeover the earth kingdom itself
How in the world do you define the word "Accidentally"?
You accidentally became the #49th Mario Maker Player in the world you then purposefully worked to become the #1.
he accidentally CAUSED himself to try to reach the top, thats the best explanation i could give
Shhhhh it's just a better sounding premise for the story
That was a very fun video!
I think the funniest moments were when Panga (and then later on, both Panga and Rays) were staring at the camera XD

I like the moral of this being have your internet go out. Because although I depend on the internet for a lot, deep down I have a very low tech center

this guy is the most positive streamer.
Great story, man. Congrats & thx for sharing! 👍😎👍
*For the week. In making levels.
For real though, that's pretty cool.
