    You know, sometimes after a lot of reality shows on television there is an extra episode where the cast, producers and other involved individuals have a more formal sit down on sofas and discuss the season? I think that would be great for Scrapyard Wars. It would give everyone involved a chance to look back and discuss their challenges, anecdotes, disasters and fixes...maybe even provide a opportunity to discuss a certain purchase or sale with the the buyer/seller. Personally, I always enjoy seeing you guys casually interact. Just a thought. Loved the season. Congratulations LMG!

      Luke's score per price was 0.26% higher. It's within margin of error, and doesn't show any real difference in score per price. Linus had the better system overall anyways.
      Also, if Linus could have sold that ram to someone, there's no doubt he would've won. Ram isn't cheap, DDR3 is currently ~$4.50/GB at the cheapest, and goes into the $20+ range; at the lowest end with the ram sold, Linus would've had a 40.8, which means his score per price would've been 4.35% higher than Luke's, which is outside margin of error.
      And if Luke hadn't sold the other components, he would've been at 35.4, which put's Linus' score per price at 10.17% higher than Luke's. This is only counting the $35 worth of stuff sold to that guy, not the returned cooler. I also wonder if that guy knew of Luke and accepted a lower price, we didn't get to see the usual, "Would you buy/sell at this price if I was anyone other than Linus/Luke/anyone at LMG?" part.
      And assuming Linus didn't have mixed ram, his score probably would've been higher anyways.
      Linus was put at a disadvantage by not selling leftover components/Luke selling his leftover components. Although not against the rules, it doesn't make for a fair comparison.

    Scrapyard Wars 8 Idea (assuming it hasn't been done)
    "Generals"
    Linus and Luke act as commanders. They spend the entire time in a central location (the office, or something), and direct the actions of a team of 1-3 people. Team commanders can only contact their subordinates by text or phone call, and must rely on their team to do all the research, footwork, sales interactions, information gathering, and negotiating. (Commanders can direct negotiations, for instance, by proxy, but cannot contact anyone but the team directly.) It is the role of the commanders to direct their team toward what kind of parts for which to look, to vet potential deals, and instruct on the construction and testing of the assembled parts.
    Subordinates can use internet; I leave it to you to decide whether to allow commanders the same.

    • @avii5429
      @avii5429 6 лет назад +1

      Now that's an interesting idea! I like the idea of separating the "generals" from the action even more than just cutting their internet, rely solely on the knowledge you already have to not only figure it out, but now direct subordinates to do your bidding, the potential for miscommunication is incredibly high, and that makes for great television.
      But in my version, footsoldiers wouldn't be able to access the internet, just like a soldier would have limited access to information and even base contact in a real battle. The generals, even IRL during wars, don't generally have very much information and when they do, they're time limited as actions need to be taken urgently, so I'd allow the generals internet use, but it's time limited. So they'd be allowed maybe an hour in the morning , that way they'd still have to make purchase decisions without directly consulting Amazon to ensure they're getting the best possible deal, but they would still be able to find out about specific products they're interested in, and unlike previous scrapyard wars where time penalties were just extra time for the other team, penalties could even mean less internet time.

    This is well within the fairly unavoidable variation in between individual runs, especially for a game that can get a bunch of variance between individual runs.

      I actually like that idea. I just wish they wouldn't weight pure cheapness so high in the final score. Sure Luke's POS was only $330, but it would not be nearly adequate to use as a daily driver. Linus' system is actually a decently high end gaming PC.

  • @joenodden

      2) also pretty sure Canada Computers DO wear blue shirts so that does improve the chances he was either the dude at the counter or someone else working in the store
      3) If I was working and a guy came in trying to sell that bag with a 2TB HD for that price, id probably agree to buying it as a regular person NOT associated with the business I work at. If he wore his shirt and bought it during work hours he coulda been fired I'm sure.
      4) I know im looking way into this non-important detail but I'm really bored and its really late, so what are you going to do? Brains are weird.

      Probably was, seeing as the shot before was Luke selling it inside the store. The store probably has a policy that doesn't allow it's employees to make transactions as the business(wearing the uniform), so he borrowed a shirt and buttoned it all they way up to avoid that.

    Im glad Luke won, everyone saying linus' pc was better can do one. He literally does the same thing all the time, a 1070 with an i7. He optimised his too, Luke should've overclocked his setup as much as possible. The difference would be bigger.

    • @maxmustermann1455
      @maxmustermann1455 6 лет назад +7

      Luke spend time selling stuff, returning the cooler etc. Time Linus used to "optimise" his rig. Which actually didn't do much as it seems.
      So Linus might actually been better off selling those ram sticks or something.
      And so what if Linus does the same every time. It makes sense. It's not about being creative. And that being said, getting some fringe Xeon and fiddle with the ram setup to "emulate" an i7, is actually quite creative.
      Both did a great job, it was close. No reason to slam one over the other.

    • @786arslan
      @786arslan 6 лет назад

      Max Mustermann If luke overclocked his build, it wouldn't have been this close. An extra ~10-15% in performance would win easily. Even if he sold his sticks, for what? Like 10bucks? It was ECC memory Im quite sure.

    • @maxmustermann1455
      @maxmustermann1455 6 лет назад +1

      +786arslan
      You say "It was ECC memory" if it was a bad thing. You can sell a 4GB DDR3-1600 ECC stick for about 50€ on eBay Kleinanzeigen (basically german Craigslist). I know that for a fact because I have some on eBay currently. Which are currently at 35€ bidding each with one day to go.
      DDR3 ECC isn't that useless for random people, seeing that quite a lot got systems like the Dell T20 (which was just dirt cheap at times, paid 240€ for mine. For what is basically a Core i5 system) or stuff like the HP MicroServer Gen7 or Gen8, both using/supporting ECC Memory.
      Also you can just slam ECC memory into a not compatible system and run it with ecc disabled Without knowing what exactly he had and knowing current canadian prices, it's hard to say. But definitely more than 10 bucks for sure. Especially with the current DRAM shortage, which of course mostly affects new DDR4 ram, but also makes people more interested into hanging on to their older systems for a bit more and getting cheap used ram (in turn making it a bit less cheap)
      Anyway, I got the impression that fiddling with Afterburner and that Intel Utility didn't do squat to the actual results, so yeah. Even for 10 bucks, using that time to sell the ram might been the smarter move.
      But my main point was, that Luke might not have had the time to overclock AND return his cooler / sell his stuff. Then his total cost would have been at 400. He would have had to get pretty good overclocking results to even out the lost money, let alone improve his score.
      Mind you, he didn't even had the time to install bloody cinebench.

      Are you ignoring the part of Luke not having the time to do both, selling/returning his crap AND overclocking on purpose?
      Because that's the real kicker.
      Like I said, even 10 bucks for all sticks together might actually been enough to turn the tide.

      Actually Linus won. When you compare relative benchmarks like this, in order to reduce the statistical bias, you calculate the result by using mean of ratios (MOR) and not ratio of means (ROM). With MOR Linus performance is 2.3344x better than Luke's but with ROM (which is what they used) Linus' performance is only 2.3202x better. So if they used the MOR method Linus' performance would be 2.3344x higher than Luke's and since Linus only paid 2.3333x more he wins.
