What is going on guys welcome back to the channel and I appreciate you being here today I bring you another destiny 2 video and today I'm going to discuss with you guys what in my opinion is the best way of reaching that top rank now I have seen so many prep videos from other content creators basically giving you guys Advanced guides and how you can reach top like fast and what you should do But most of these videos people are based on old systems of doing this It's different now and what they're giving you guys is false Information but before we get into it and check that out guys I have five destiny two complete collection codes to give away to be with a chance of winning one Simply make sure you are sub to the channel drop a like on the video and leave a comment down below I will pick winners over the coming weeks and DM you via YouTube So good luck to everybody who enters if that does not bother you and you already have the DLC If you would like to show your support to me and the channel hit the like button and the video really does help out and I do Appreciate it. Okay, so these videos. I've been seen demonstrate past ways in how you can level up and maximize your game And actually reach that top level that being a level 50 and reaching the power cap of 500 before the grind Actually really starts but guys it's actually different now these old systems of leveling up They ain't the same in four second. It's way different for instance I've seen people say if you have crucible gunsmith and van guide tokens You shouldn't use these until you reach the power cap of 500 because these will help you progress higher That's actually wrong. They don't they're kept around your level I've also seen people say you should hold off playing the campaign until you reach a rank 50 and the power of 500 That's completely wrong. Also, I mean people say hold off and do public events Last sectors and so forth get a higher level then do the campaign because then your power level will rise because the drops at the end Will be higher. That's actually not true people and to prove this guys as you can see on screen now And all I have done is go through the campaign. I am a power level 500 and a rank 50. I haven't even opened the dream in city yet I've still got all that to do and I'm already a level 50 and the power level 500 and I've just done the campaign I haven't done public events. I haven't held off I've just done the campaign because what happens is you progress towards this level just through the emissions and having blues drop You don't have to hold off doing anything and do other means to level up People think there are campaign drops that drop around your specific level ones like the vesting dynasty from Petra That's actually false. This thing will drop at a 500 no matter your level the item is locked at that level No higher. No lower. So it doesn't matter your level when you get to this stage It will always be a 500 and this is no doubt for any other weapon You are rewarded for doing a campaign so you don't have to hold off and honestly guys If you ain't here at 500 and a level 50 at this stage, which I guarantee you should be your drop from here on forward We'll be around that 500 power level and that's before you even open up the dream in city like me Also the wanted bounties from spider These do drop gear which will help you reach that 500 power level if you ain't there yet So get some of these done I'm a 500 at this stage and I haven't opened all these means of powerful gear like the crucible and strike challenges gambit The ones from spider the daily buff from the Coup d'arc Which gives you one prime engram daily and that's without going to the dream in city and doing the blind wild Petra bounties These also offer you powerful gear. These are all things I still can do Which all help me head towards that 600 power level another thing to add people also state You should stack powerful in-gram rewards because these are the true things Which really did allow you to raise over that 500 power cap to a degree. This is right But it doesn't matter what level you are guys powerful in grams will always drop above 500 power level I opened one near the start of the d24 second campaign and was rewarded the last dance It dropped a five or three, but at the current time my power levels three nine three So it seems powerful gear was will always drop above 500 but in saying that saving as many as you can until you reach a 500 is definitely the right thing to do So we know once 500 power is reached there are certain places in which you can use to level up Crime engrams and powerful give rewards are these things So this is my take on a matter It could be the best advice you've ever heard or it could be completely wrong But it's working for me play the campaign get to that like 50 and as high a power level as you can Which should be around a 500 power level because that is the drop cap and you will do this most probably before you even Open up the dream in city not touching any of your powerful gear rewards And that these rewards will actually become available when you actually reach a level 50 anyway So once a level 50 is reached You should then go on to doing all these challenges for this powerful gear That means strikes and nightfall crucible gambit and so forth And what other ways you can to get that powerful gear as this is the only way to actually progress higher Once you have reached the power of 500 so get them out of the way then go on to the dream in city We get a dream in city There are more means of getting those extra levels pictures blind while bounty's the daily Rahul both also gives you one Prime engram a day and whatever other means there are now I actually didn't intend in actually doing a video talking about this until I actually watched a video from a fellow content creator last Night bless this kind of sucks He thought he was giving you guys correct information It's dating to hold off on the campaign until you're a level 50 and a power level 500 That is just making you guys completely waste your time indeed So a quick summary of what I believe you guys should be doing first get through the campaign until you reach the dream in cities first Ages and get into that rank 50 and a power level 500 once you actually reach a level 50 Many other means open up in regards for you to actually obtain this powerful gear You should then do all means possible in obtaining this powerful gear That means crucible strikes gambit and whatever other bounties you have a line around or picked up from various vendors Then go on to the dream in city Do what you need to complete whatever is available here because although I won't spoil it There's so much more to do here and you need to be a higher level to even survive on this place It's ridiculous again pictures daily bounties their daily prime engram and more these should help you reach that top Rank as high as possible. I mean if you do a little research There's not many people out there now who are higher than like a 515 I mean I've still got all of this to do and at the current stages and the recording this video I'm a 503 and I haven't touched any of these powerful gear awards. So will I get there? Will I not? I'm not sure another thing that I will add a fellow friend of mine was helping me through my remaining missions and the adventures within the tangled shore He's already a 510 power level, but he was getting blues drop at his level now for me blues are capped at 500 I'm not sure what stages you reach for 510 blues to drop. We haven't figured that out yet But just try people if you've got a pal who hasn't completed the campaign yet Still has adventures to do on a tangled shore help him out and see what rewards you get We may just have practical here, but who knows but guys on that note I am asked just a quick video giving you guys my opinion the best means in getting to that top Rank as quick as possible. Don't hold off and doing the campaign That's probably the worst advice I've heard so far and before we log out people every month I'm giving away a fully customizable controller for Xbox PlayStation set in your way in the world to beam with a chance of winning Simply drop a like and a video leave a comment down below make sure you are served and follow the gleam link at the top of the video Description is fast simple and legit guys, but on that note I am out of thanks as always for stopping by and hopefully I will see you on that next one

Welcome to Toffee TV. It's my pleasure to say I am joined by Robbie from AFTV here to preview the Everton vs Arsenal game. Robbie, how are you mate? You must be like bouncing, absolutely bouncing. Yeah, listen, I can't lie. At the moment I am bouncing. It's been incredible, really incredible this year. The team playing brilliantly at the moment. I remember going to watch the team pre-season. I remember actually because we played Everton as well. We were there, yeah. In Baltimore, yeah. I remember watching the team in Florida as the game I was at. And I was like, hey, for the first time in a long time this team, they look really fit. They look really ready for the season. They look sharp, you know. And I just remember turning around to one of my guys and saying, you know what, I think we're going to have a good season this year, you know, because we're looking sharp. I remember we played Chelsea, we beat them like 4-0, could have been more. So we carried that through into the season and just since the start of the season onwards, we've just been playing really, really good football. And then of course we've made a few really good signings on top of that and that always helps, you know. And yeah, we're flying at the moment. Let me take you back to the sliding doors moment in 2019. We appointed Carlo Ancelotti. You appointed Michel Arteta. Some people on that day thought that we'd got it the wrong way round. That maybe we should have got Arteta and you should have got Carlo Ancelotti. Just the way that the clubs were set up. You know, going back to that day, what did you remember and what did you think about bringing Arteta in? Do you know what? At that time I actually was mixed. So on the one hand I did think what I agreed with what you said. I was like, Ancelotti would suit Arsenal more because I looked at it and I thought, Michel Arteta, alright, I get it, but he's very inexperienced. And this job at Arsenal needs someone with a lot of experience because there was so many problems that needed fixing. So I was like, Ancelotti would be a better appointment for us. But then I was prepared to give it a shot because I've kind of been like of this thing over the past couple of years where I'm like, I'm getting fed up with the same old managers all the time, the same old faces. So I was like, I do want to see someone new, but is he going to be what we need right now? So I have to say I was skeptical and had we've got Ancelotti at that time, I think I'd have been a lot more happier at that time because I just felt that experience was something that we needed because we were just in a mess at the time. So what's changed then? Because obviously you went through a couple of tough seasons with a lot of people suggesting Michel Arteta wasn't the right man. And obviously the back end of the last season you missed out on the Champions League and obviously there was the Tottenham game where obviously you got beaten. That was sort of like the desire. What's changed to get you to where you are this season? Well, first of all, I think there's a bit of a misconception on the whole Arteta thing where a lot of fans or a lot of pundits always say, well, you guys all wanted him out. That's not true. I think when Michel Arteta first came in at Arsenal, you have to remember in this very first season he won the FA Cup for Arsenal. So he bought himself a lot of credit in the bank because we were going backwards and he won the FA Cup. So the following season, we got to the semi-finals of the Europa League and we had a half, we didn't get into Europe, because again, we had a good run in an important competition. He still had credit and he won the FA Cup the year before. And then we went into that next season now where we started off really horribly. We had that defeat against Brentford, that famous first game of the season and lost our first free. And I think that's when he was on a bit of a sticky wicket then because then some of the credit was starting to run out. Fans were like, you know what, we got a couple of games coming up.  Maybe we need to bring someone else in. But then there was a lot of other fans were like, well, listen, got a couple of games coming up. Noriger Ohm, Tottenham. If we don't win those games, maybe it's time to change. He did win those two games, especially the Tottenham game was a massive turnaround for him because we beat them very handily. I think it's free one at home. And then after that, we went on a run. And I think after that, the fans were right back behind him again. So he and then, you know, he's made some really tough decisions since he's been there.   And also, I think the most important thing that he's done, apart from, you know, building a good side is he's brought back that connection. He's brought back that connection between the players and the fans. I remember when he first came in, he says, I want to get that connection back between the players and the fans, which didn't really exist over the last few years. And he's succeeded in that. And then really built a team in his own image, a team that, you know, really does what he wants to do on a football pitch, which has been really aggressive. Have a lot of skill, but play on the front foot. And it's been great to watch this season. It really has. Yeah, just watching the documentary, obviously, those things can seem quite embarrassing. But I really enjoyed it and I really enjoyed how he dealt with the Bamiang situation. And it showed that, you know, he was trying to weed out what seemed like the bad elements within the dressing room.  When you don't see that, you guys would have been, why is he getting rid of this player? But it's all played out for the main in the right way, hasn't it? You know, the real strange thing, when that documentary... Obviously, we were filming the documentary and we missed out on fourth place, Tottenham got ahead of us. And when that documentary is coming out, I was like, oh my God, this is going to be the most embarrassing thing ever, you know? The documentary came out, made our title look even better. To the fans, they were like, wow, this is a guy that like, he really, really wants to succeed for this club. This is a guy, he loves this club. This is a guy that like, all the decisions he's making, whether they're right or wrong, are for the good of this club. And that really shone through in that documentary. And I think that really got everybody on board with him. People were like, wow, this guy, you know, that's why sometimes being open, you know, it doesn't happen enough in football. But sometimes you've just got to be, I know the problems you guys have in Everton. And sometimes when people are open and honest, you know, you can look at things and say, all right, you're in a bad situation at the moment, but this guy is trying his hardest, he's trying his best to succeed. Let's get behind him. So the documentary as well was another thing that done brilliant for Michel Artet, a person of me. And, you know, and then I think in the transfer market, he's made some, you know, him and Edu, they've made some really good signings that have really transformed Arsenal.  I mean, it's just added so much quality to the team. And you're just seeing a different Arsenal right now. All the decisions he's been making, Michel Artet, even the one, there was a lot of fans at the end of last season, it was with Eddie and Ketya when his contract was running out, there was like, move him on, let's go and get something. He said, nah, I'm keeping this guy, I believe in him. Eddie and Ketya's come good. When a lot of Arsenal fans are saying, Granite Jacka, come on, man, this guy, get rid of this guy now. We all know the clash that he had with the fans a couple of years ago. Michel Artet came in and said, nah, Granite Jacka is a very important player for this team. I'm keeping him. I'd have to say, he's one of our best players right now. He was one of our best players last season, and he's one of our best players this season, and he's one of the most consistent and important players in Arsenal's team. And that's Granite Jacka, a guy that we all, you know, if you did a poll, 90% of us wanted him gone a couple of years ago. So Arteta has really transformed this team, and has really been making some really excellent and strong decisions. Yeah, like just two things from that. I can't imagine what an Everton documentary would look like. It would be absolute blockbuster. Why every single streaming platform has not tried to get an Everton documentary sorted. It would be absolutely unbelievable viewing. Like if I could afford to do one myself, I would make one myself. Do you know what, Pedia? Maybe though, and I don't listen, I don't know for sure, but maybe sometimes if you actually saw what the problems were, like for instance, I saw the other day that you guys didn't buy anybody in the transfer window, which, you know, quite rightly, your fans are really angry about.  Yeah, you're going to say that because of the, but sometimes when you can actually see what they tried and then you might, you know, you might sympathise with it and say, well, all right, actually, let's get off their back a bit. They actually did try, but we a lot of times we don't know, do we? We don't know. They don't really feel the same with the things that are going on. So we don't believe them. Well, that's it, Rob, isn't it? And we've been doing this for a very long time and, you know, we've both gone through different things with our own channels and communication is such an important thing.  And that's one of the, that communication is a big problem with them at Football Club either no communication or miscommunication. And, you know, so what have you made of the things that you've heard about Devon in the last few months? Because I'm fascinated by this of how, you know, obviously, someone like myself who's quite close to the Football Club interprets things against people in the national media or people who ring up national radio stations and say, oh, the state of that club or the fans are toxic. How have you looked at it, you know, through your prism of doing this? Well, I've, you know, I've been watching a lot of your guys stuff. And I've obviously, you see all the headlines, like the other day when they said that the boards were advised not to turn up at the game because they hadn't tell that, you know, there's going to be trouble and stuff like that. But then I saw your guys and then the stuff that you were saying, and then I then saw that the police came out afterwards and said, well, we had no report of, you know, any trouble that was going to happen. And I just feel that, you know, the, I don't know, it just seems a real mess with how Everton are being run. Yes, the owner obviously spent a lot of money and you can't deny that he's really, you know, I've heard him say himself, you know, I put the money and I spent the money, but it's not just about that. It's about how the club is run. And I don't know if it's maybe people have come in and kind of hoodwinked him and made him spend money in the wrong areas or make really bad decisions. But I feel sorry for the fans because, you know, Everton are a huge football club.  They're a massive club. You know, I know that when Everton come to Arsenal, no matter where you are, the away ends fall, it's a huge club. And I just think that the fans at the moment of Everton deserve better. There's, there's, you shouldn't be in the problems. You shouldn't be in the state that you've got right now. Let's look at some of the decisions that Everton, when, when Everton appointed Rafa Benitez, I said there's, they don't know what they're doing.   And I just look at some of the decisions they make. I know, you know, I'm not, I'm not a director of football, but I know that if you're trying to, you know, replace Richardlesson's goals, you don't go and get Neil Mopay, who's probably never scored 10 goals in a season before. So I just see some really strange decisions at Everton. And it's a real shame to see, because as I said, I just, I just see Everton as one of his big traditional clubs. You know, it's one of the oldest clubs in this country. And it just shouldn't be in this, shouldn't be in this state at the moment. And it's all down, I feel, to how it's being run. You know, the best clubs are all clubs that are run, you know, the clubs that are most successful are run well. That's why Chelsea at the moment, despite them spending, you know, nearly a billion quid are still 10th in the league, because I just think they're not run right at the moment. Maybe they might get it right and get back to where they were. But they're in a little bit of a turmoil at the moment. It's not how much money you spend. It's how the club is run from top to bottom. And I just think Everton at the moment, it shouldn't be run right.  That's what's happening at the moment, I guess. Yeah, absolutely. And the money thing's interesting because it's often used as a way of praising the owner and saying, well, look at all the money you spend, but it's like, well, if you spend that much money and you have nothing to show for it, then that proves that you are, you know, really bothered doing doing your job. Obviously, let's move on to the game itself. Obviously, Evan, you've got a new manager, Sean Deichers in charge, you know. You know, what have you made of, what did you make of the Frank Lampard situation? And how do you see Saturday? Well, I ain't going to lie, I wanted Lampard to stay. I wanted him to stay because I didn't think he was doing a very good job at all. I don't think he should have got that job in the first place. He did well last year to keep Evan up, but I just feel that that job's quite a big job right now. I think Sean Deichers is a real smart appointment, you know, not a sexy appointment, but that's not what you need right now. And I'm just hoping that it's not going to give Evan that new manager bounce, you know. He's the sort of guy that, you know, he'll just work with what he's got, he'll get on with it, he won't complain. We saw the job that he'd done over the years at Burnley, always a really hard team to beat. Always a team punching above their weight. You know, he's a guy you've got to admire. Look how long he was at Burnley. He's one of the longest serving managers, you know what I mean? So I was only just surprised that nobody had sort of brought him back into football earlier, you know. So I know that it's going to be a tough game because, you know, he's going to set up Everton and make them really tough to beat.  So I think Arsenal, we've got to get off to a fast start, which is something we've been doing, especially away from home in literally every game. But we've got to get off to a fast start. And I don't know, even though we've got the new manager bounce that Everton have got, I'm still quite infused with Arsenal because I think we've had a good transfer window. We've been playing really well. We've brought in some good players in Trossard and even Georgina, I think is a good backup to Thomas Partey, who's been absolutely key to us this season. But I just look at the way Arsenal have been playing away from home this season and, you know, we've only lost one game away from home. We've gone to difficult places and made it look easy. I mean, we went away to Tottenham where we had won for nine years and blew them away, you know. Even the other day we went to Man City, I felt, you know, we made like seven changes and that was, you know, there's nothing really in that game. So we're playing well and I just want Arsenal to just continue what they've been doing all season. And I think if we do that, we should get the result. Yeah, it's going to be a very, very tough game. You guys are absolutely flying. Listen, you've got lots and lots of good players, but who's the one player you think, if Everton are tight and do, you know, make it really hard? Who's the one player who can unlock the Everton defence? Well, Martin Ortegaard's been brilliant this season, you know. £30 million he cost and with all the money that's been spent this week, I'm thinking how much money is he worth now, you know.  He can unlock a tight game, but the other player I think has been really important for Arsenal as well has been Thomas Pate. He sits deep, you know what I mean? He breaks up play, but he's got this ability to break the lines with his passing range and just dictate the play. And I think if he's on song in any game, you know, we're always good. The only game we lost this season was when he worked playing against Man United. So he's an absolute key player to Arsenal, just sitting there deep and sort of dictating the play. So I think it's one of them two that are going to be the real important players. Yeah, one of them, one of those 11 players will be OK. Yeah, I mean, listen, you know, Martinelli's been great this season as well on the other wing. You've got Saka, and Eddie and Ketchum in the last, you know, he's been on fire these kids, you know what I mean? You know, I remember last year at Everton, he missed that absolute sit-up. No, he did, when we went after him. And I was looking at him, thinking in the last minute, who is this guy? But after that, you know, he came in towards the end of the season, scored a couple at Chelsea. He scores goals in big games as well, that's what I like about him. And he's so confident, and he's been on fire. I fancy him to do something tomorrow as well. Yeah, I remember that miss, I think I was holding my breath for about five minutes after it. I couldn't believe it. I couldn't believe it. He missed one. I remember a Bamiang missed an easy one at the end as well. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, oh my God, that game was all right. We got our luck, we rode our luck that night, and we got it some night, you just get it. To be honest, right, even though you rode your luck that night, you deserved it, because we were shocking. And I thought that in the second half of the game, you just came out and you were a different team. And I remember that day, with Charleston, he had a really big influence.  No, he hasn't done anything. Absolutely nothing since he's gone to Tottenham. He should never have went there. He shouldn't, but they all do that though, Rob, don't they though? Yeah. All these players do that. I'm not saying the big fishy little ponds, but they get that kind of love and they get that kind of encouragement. And don't get me wrong, I don't blame players for wanting to try and do the best at the highest level. But it hardly ever works when they leave Everton. I don't know what it is. There's very, very few that you can name. And he certainly should have stayed at Everton, but I don't know. I don't know whether Everton would be still here if they hadn't sold them financially because the club is such a mess. Rob, I'm not going to ask you for a prediction because I know you're just going to say you're going to win. So I'm not going to say I'm not going to give my prediction, but listen.  No, no, it's all right.  No, no, no, leave it. Rob, he thinks they're going to beat us three now. That's all I'm going to say. And I've got no reason. Listen, if I was sat where you were sitting, I'd be looking and thinking, we're going to beat you six and he'll never mind three. No, mate. So I got back my boys at the moment. They play so well, man. It's a good time to be an Arsenal fan. Listen, we listen, what I'd say, right? All right, maybe we're not down where you guys are, but we've been through it over the years. We have been through really horrible times, man. And teams come back. Yeah. You know, and I'm hoping Daesh is the guys to bring you guys back after, after tomorrow. You know what I mean? It's standard, mate. It's all it is. It's standards. Some people look at, like, maybe fans of Arsenal, even fans of someone like Liverpool at the moment and say, oh, you're entitled because you're moaned because you're in this position or you're that position. It's your standards. That's all it is. It's believing that your club deserves to be where it is. And maybe for various reasons, they've been a road that they haven't over the year. I don't know. I can't talk for other people, but that's maybe what it is. Robby, big thank you for coming on our channel. Thank you. You can obviously find Robby over on AFTV. I mean, I don't even have to tell anyone to subscribe. You've got all the subscribers. I don't know if there's anyone left for you to subscribe. Do you just wait outside maternity wards and sign them up as they come out? Is that what it is? You've got all the... Oh, that'd be good. That's a good idea. Instant match reaction from outside the maternity ward. Big thank to Robby for coming on. It's always a pleasure. This man has been a huge, huge help and influence over the years at Toffee TV. I can't tell you how much this man has done for our channel in shape and our channel. I love your channel, man. Just keep doing your thing, man, because, you know what I mean? As I said, I'm informed about what's going on. What's really going on there by watching your channel. You know what I mean? So it's been fantastic. You guys have been working at this for years, man. Deserve everything you get, man. Apart from the team at the moment, you know what I mean? I thought you were going to say apart from the three points tomorrow. And three points here. You don't deserve that either. We need those. We need those badly, man. You don't want to see City winning this every year, do you? No, no, no. There you go. What would you rather? We get the three points tomorrow and then you go and field next week and turn them over. Yeah, yeah. No, that'd be nice. That'd be nice. But yeah, we're not into the realms of fantasy here, Rob. There you go. Big thanks to Robby for joining us from AFTV. It's been an absolute pleasure to check out all this stuff as ever. Maybe tomorrow you can check them out because we've won and it'll be fantastic. Imagine that. I don't know. Imagine that. There you go. Thank you for watching and we'll see yous later.


Hello everyone, thank you for joining the academic summer school webinar for summer 2020 at SOAS. My name is John Whitaker, I coordinate the academic summer school programme and I'm here with my colleague Rufus. So we're both going to be chatting through a few details with you all today about the summer programme and a bit about SOAS and about what we offer and basically answer any questions that you guys have as well. And on that you can I think type any questions that you have as we go. So if you've got any questions at all about anything we're talking about then just write them in the text box here and we'll be able to see those so we can answer anything as we go. And then at the end we'll have some time for any questions as well. So yeah either of those is actually fine, don't worry about stopping us as we go through. But we'll keep it very kind of informal and hopefully just give you any information you need and yeah help you along the process of applying for the summer school and coming to study here in London and at SOAS this summer. So I don't know how much you already might know about SOAS. Some of you might know it quite well. Some of you might not have heard about SOAS at all. So I thought we could give you just a very brief kind of overview of SOAS. The kind of things that we teach here and yeah kind of a brief kind of general overview just to let anyone know who's not familiar with SOAS about the kind of things and what we do and the approaches that we take. So I mean in terms of SOAS we are the School of Oriental and African Studies. We're part of the University of London and we are well at least Europe's leading institution but some say maybe the world leading institution for the study of Asia, Africa and the Middle East. So although we offer courses across all the kind of core areas that you would see at other institutions whether that be law, politics, finance, management, business, economics all of those things we offer but the approach we take is always with kind of looking through the lens of Asia, Africa and the Middle East and using perhaps case studies that are from those regions or will always kind of be looking at the kind of global context rather than perhaps a western context that a lot of institutions or a lot of other places would kind of start with. So our starting point is looking outwardly, looking at these other regions, looking at Asia, Africa and the Middle East and starting there and looking at the issues and problems faced there but bringing that all together and looking at these core concepts in relation to finance, business, law, politics and all of those key kind of things that we're all kind of interested in and we'll be focusing on throughout our kind of academic life and throughout our careers but at SOAS you really get a real kind of specialized approach to the teaching here that often isn't offered anywhere else and often isn't the things you kind of hear and learn are really things that you just don't really hear elsewhere. So in terms of our teaching is quite unique in that respect kind of relating back to the summer school programs that we offer the faculty that we have at SOAS are often from the regions that we teach about so you're not kind of hearing from someone who's just studied kind of these regions you're hearing from experts that have lived in these regions who have grown up there and who have now kind of come to SOAS as a kind of real melting pot and hotbed for this kind of teaching and this kind of academic expertise they all kind of gravitate to SOAS in some kind of way because of the kind of unique approach that we have. So our faculty are teachers and these will be the teachers that you hear from on the academic summer school they're core faculty so these are the teachers that are teaching our degree programs these are the people who are then teaching our summer programs as well we're not drafting in external people just for the summer these are often heads of departments, they're senior academics they're senior professors who teach on our degree programs and they also teach on our courses over the summer and I would definitely encourage you to go on to our website and have a look on our course descriptions you'll find each convener listed there and just go and have a look at their biographies and see the kind of research they've done and the areas they're focusing on because you'll learn so much about the kind of what their background is and what they're going to be bringing to the courses just by having a quick look at their names have a search of their names and seeing what information is on the website and yeah as I said you're kind of what people always say when they come to SOAS especially on the summer school is that they learn and hear things that they kind of never knew before or they get perspectives that they just weren't aware of partly that's because of the teaching and the things that are taught here but also because of the group of students that come to SOAS over the summer so you'll get students from all over the world who are sharing their perspectives on these issues and so it's not just learning from the teachers, it's learning from your group and your peers as well and that's basically a general kind of intro to SOAS as well as our kind of world renowned academic expertise one of the other things that makes us so special is really our student body and the kind of international student community that we have here at SOAS not just throughout our term time but also over the summer as well you get a particular type of person who comes to SOAS it's not really, it's very different I think from other places especially other places in London where you get these very big universities that attract lots and lots of students but here at SOAS you really get a feel for the certain type of person who comes here, they're very politically motivated often kind of involved activists in various forms across London and they all want to make change in the world, positive change and that's really the kind of perspective that we have here is making positive change in the world and influencing people and making a difference basically so we all kind of come with that approach and you can really feel that here at SOAS is that we're all kind of together heading towards a kind of shared goal of making the world a better place really so the student body here is something that really stands out from other universities and something that people really love to just get involved with and experience so that's one of the special things about SOAS then just quickly about where we are, where SOAS is placed within London, we're kind of perfectly located in central London in Bloomsbury it's an area with, it's kind of a buzzing area really with lots of other universities very close by we've got UCL, we've got FEC and various other University of London institutions that are based within a stone's throw of SOAS but in the wider scheme of things we're a very short walk from places like the British Museum, the British Library Covent Garden, it's a really nice area and Oxford Circus, Trafalgar Square, Leicester Square and SOHO so you've got these places that are about a ten minute walk basically from SOAS so it's not just a great place to come to on its own you get to explore London just by kind of being very close to all of these main kind of attractions so it's a great place to base yourself our accommodation is very close by so you'll be really in the heart of London and be able to kind of just explore the various kind of areas that are really close by so we're in a really good place and location within London Transport links are brilliant so you'll never be far from a tube station you can get around London, London is very big but you can get around very quickly and yeah, I would just say that you won't really get a better location in terms of coming to London to study and because you're here for a relatively short time over the summer you want to be very close and you want things conveniently located so yeah, in terms of where we're placed we're in a very good location so I think I'm going to hand over to Ruha to speak a little bit more now we'll start to give you an overview of our summer programme it's the academic summer school and Ruha will talk you through the specific details about how the courses are structured we also arrange around 20 courses that are designed to conspire to challenge several questions and answers and you can see the table on the right that we cover a range of different areas from law politics, finance, regional studies and many many more you can see the dates listed at the top of the table and each course is three weeks long but you do have the options you choose to study for six weeks six weeks with us by choosing one course from each session I'll talk about it in a bit more detail later but if you do choose to study two courses you will be eligible for a 10% discount as well which is great so in terms of how the courses are structured each course is full-time, which means Monday to Friday roughly 10am to 3pm which typically will consist of a mid-term election morning at 2am or 2pm or 7am or 1pm and then a bit of assistance at least across the three weeks we do kind of hold a few different social events we'll be talking a bit more later about our guest lectures workshop series that you can get involved with so stay tuned for that you can choose to study our courses for credit if you choose the credit assessed option pay it slightly high C and then be required to complete the course assessment and you'll receive a transcript of the actual study confirm your marks and your credit and of course if you don't choose to study the credit you will not be required to complete any of your final course assessments it's first mentioned in this file that we do receive received very mixed cohort applications so that includes undergraduate from all years postgraduate, working professionals from a range of industries and of course I want to speak a little bit about our guest lecture workshop series I mean I'd come in a little bit just on a point that Ruha made there about the mixture of students I mean so Ruha was just giving you really an overview of the program and of the courses that we offer so it's a typical kind of structure it'll be Monday to Friday you'll have usually lectures in the morning and you'll have seminar discussion sessions in the afternoon but interspersed with those we don't kind of just keep it very classroom based we want to get you out and about in London so you'll visit various sites, various organisations sometimes that are linked with the topics that you'll study it could be an NGO that are working in a particular area on the development path so you'll go out and visit these places you might go to the British Museum and see the Africa archives that they got there so we try and take you out of the classroom as much as possible so you're not going to just be based in the classroom having lectures and that's it you're going to be out on various visits and trips and the structure and the schedule will be quite varied on all of our courses but something I just kind of wanted to chime in on there and what Ruha was mentioning was the kind of mixture of students and on our courses which again I think is quite different to other places our courses attract undergraduates and they are taught at a kind of second to third year undergraduate level but we get I think a lot of the applications that we've had through at the moment are from postgraduate students and that's perfectly fine our courses are designed to be appropriate for postgraduates as well but also get some kind of young career professionals or people working kind of out in the field who want to either refresh their knowledge on a particular area or they're using it as some kind of professional development so you really get to hear so much kind of expertise from people who aren't just either currently or have graduated but from people working in these various fields as well so that's something that people say is so great about doing a summer school course at Soasis but again the people that you hear from so that's just to say that our courses are very mixed in terms of the range of students we get we're not just specifically designed for one level of students summer courses are they the same every year our programme changes year on year so some of our courses have been running since we started which is about eight years ago so we have a core selection of courses that will run every year but we always add new ones in as well so it does change each year but we have a core set of around ten or so courses that will run each year if there's any particular areas that you're interested in then let us know on the chat and we can say which courses might be most appropriate but this slide just basically gives you an overview of what courses are on offer this year one of the other new things that we have developed for this year is that you can study for credits so they're all credit bearing they offer 15 credits or 15 SOAS credits per course so if you're currently studying and you would like to use or you'd like to earn credit over the summer at SOAS and take that back perhaps to your home institution and transfer that credit then it makes it a lot easier for you if you choose to study for credit but some people also as I said there's a lot of professionals who don't particularly require credit so they can take a non-credit route which means that you don't complete any of the final assessments on the course and you can just study the course for the experience but you don't actually receive an assessment or a final grade or transcript to the end so we have two, we have a credit bearing route and a non-credit bearing route on every course but you will all come together and study the same course I've got a question here, monitoring and evaluation for next summer will be interesting for me so that's great so we'll note that down, thank you, development evaluation so we've got the project program and policy evaluation which may be of interest to you I'd suggest having a quick look at that but we'll make a note of any suggestions you have for courses it's really actually helpful for us to know what you guys might be interested in if there's any areas that you think we could cover and please do tell me culture ethnography would be interesting for young professionals definitely that's a great suggestion I mean culture, I mean those areas I think are covered in quite a lot of our courses but maybe something specifically around that of course our courses around understanding Africa gender all cover that kind of culture aspect and I think all of our courses will look at cultures in these various regions as well research methodology we actually offer I don't even know the content so we've got an understanding research methods course available in session one so that's there there's another exciting element about our summer program that I think isn't offered anywhere else and that's the addition of guest lectures a guest lecture series and also workshops practical skills workshops I'll focus on the guest lectures first so aside from the kind of core subject learning and those courses that we were just talking about there in the first week of your programs whether it's session one or session two we will be offering guest lectures that are open to everyone it's a time where all students across all courses can come together and hear from kind of people who are working in the field again within it could be within media but they really honed they're designed to hone your communication skills these guest lectures so you'll hear from BBC news anchors, political journalists there's I think we've got a kind of public speaking communications expert who trains leading business CEOs so there's going to be as you can see on the slide here and in the first week we've got there's a couple of funny names there so Bendit Like Obama is actually a session on public speaking and where you can tailor any kind of speech you have to make it sound as good as something that Barack Obama might have said and the way he kind of structures his speeches and then we're offering kind of there's also panel discussions around feminist politics around gender so basically in week one three guest lectures to bring everyone together to hear from experts and this is something that we do at SOAS during the term time as well for our full-time students is this kind of communication media skills type training and that ties into the work we offer them as well so week one we have this guest lecture series from experts in the field who will come to SOAS they'll do a talk for about an hour after your courses are taught so between kind of four to five in the evening in the late afternoon and that'll be a way for us to just bring everyone together and get kind of courses networking between each other that was one of the comments we had last year is that people thought they wanted more networking opportunities between courses not just with the group of students that they have on their particular course so we're looking at ways to bring everyone the whole group together more and this could be a good way to start off conversations as well so they're open to everyone that's just part of the program that's just an exciting element in your first week but then in weeks two and three you have the option to add some practical skills workshops to your summer program there's a small to add those to your course but what they will do what they're designed to do they're very interactive immersive workshops that will provide a taste of the practical skills that we teach here at SOAS so they're around kind of media skills and political skills training and they're practical skills that you can actually take away with you so aside from the teaching of the theory and practice related to your particular program we're offering workshops that are designed to increase your kind of employability skills and careers skills so we're thinking of what you can take away with you after the summer and put into your kind of future careers here so there'll be things like CV workshops, there'll be newsroom simulations one of the workshops is a newsroom simulation where you'll be something a massive news story will come up at the last minute and you have to kind of adapt and deal with that and how you approach that other ones will be around using your voice and kind of managing the kind of power differentials that you might experience within a room and making yourself effective so there's lots of things there that you can add to your program that will enhance your kind of employability further down the line we think this will be a really attractive aspect for this summer and in the future we're not just focusing on academia we want to come away with skills that you can put towards your futures and your careers and the area you're going into so that's just to mention those and there's lots of information on the website so I would say go on to the academic summer school website each workshop is explained fully and the lectures are explained as well and any questions about those as well as I said so the guest lectures will happen after the core teaching so your teaching will happen normally at three in the afternoon so at three o'clock onwards you're kind of free the guest lectures will probably take place between three and five so we'll get you all together for those during the first week then the workshops take place also between three and five so it's still within that kind of nine to five day you'll have your core teaching up until around three o'clock normally and then the workshop to take place after three o'clock but not too late you don't have to have a really long day if you're to be exhausted but I think these will be a really good thing that you can add to your program as well just something to say on the workshops is that the spaces are limited just because of the nature of them they're very practical and hands-on will be getting you to kind of work together in groups as a kind of one big group really and in that sense we need to keep the numbers fairly small for each session so numbers are limited so if you're interested in those I'd get in there as soon as possible and add those to your application if you haven't applied yet but also the workshops run across both sessions so perhaps if someone is studying two courses you could choose perhaps whether to do a few of the workshops in both sessions but we'll always try to find space for you anyway but just to say that there is a limit to that so we're going to talk a little bit about the discounts we offer on the tuition fees and scholarships that are available we've got another question are there additional fees for the workshops so it's £100 to add shops to your program so in the grand scheme of things fairly low it's an expensive package to come to London we know the accommodation sites and the tuition as well but yeah so for the workshops there's a small fee of £100 to add that so I'm going to hand you over to Ruha now to talk over the next slide so to begin with we offer an early bird discount so that's for everyone who applies before 31st of March you'll be eligible for 10% off your tuition fees as I mentioned before if you choose to study two courses with us over the summer you'll also be eligible for 10% discount and then finally we offer discounts for students who are South Wales alumni as well as students coming from our partner institutions we have a full list of partner institutions on our website but if you are unsure as to whether you fall under one of those institutions please just drop us an email to let you know whether or not you qualify so to go back onto the ambassador scholarship we offer six tuition fee waiver ambassador scholarships so these basically cover the tuition fee one course per successful applicant and these are available for passionate students who have a desire to make a difference in the world to apply the process is very simple all you need to do is send in a video response to the question which you can see on screen so the question is so as inspire students to make a difference in the world what inspires you and how you've chosen the summer course to help you to make a difference so all you need to do is film a video response to the question we're not worried about the quality of the video so much so feel free to film it on your phone, your laptop, whatever you have with you and then you can send that to us via email which will be at the end of the presentation and for the ambassador scholarship is the 17th of March it has been extended so if you had a look on our website before you might have seen that it was the second it has been extended to the 13th of March and we will hopefully get back to you by the 20th of March by the very latest about the outcome so yeah just to say that I think there's information again on the website about the scholarship but there'll be things that we'll be asking of the winners of these scholarships over the summer so there'll be blog posts there'll be social media takeovers and there'll be various promotional things that we ask the winners to do but it's a great opportunity, we've increased it to six this year and it's really we call them ambassador scholarships because we want those people to go back to their home institutions or to just go back to wherever they're living and to really help us to promote SOAS and promote the summer school opportunities as well. That might be quite useful when you're applying fuels but a lot of our ambassador scholarships will also offer additional bursaries for two courses so understanding Africa and the colonising translation and translation studies. If you would like more information on these I'd recommend either getting in touch with us by email or looking on the course pages where there's more information the deadline for bursaries for decolonising translation and translation studies is a little bit later it's the 31st of sorry the 3rd of April so you've got a bit more time there So it's just very quick one really just to say while you're here over the summer summer school students will have full access to the SOAS library which is an incredible resource for journals and academic texts that you won't find anywhere else especially related to these specific regions that we focus on So this is just a quick one just to a lot of people come to SOAS specifically just to use the library, it's a national library and it's pretty incredible the kind of things that we've got here and as summer school students you'll have full access to that while you're here One of the benefits about studying for credit is that that gives you access to our offline journal so if you're not on campus or you've returned home you'll be able to access some library material offline that's something that we can only offer to credit-bearing students at the moment but what I would say is that when you complete a summer school you can sign up as SOAS alumni and receive all the benefits that SOAS alumni gets and that actually gives you access to the online journals and academic resources that the library offers off campus I think we've got to work around for it so if you're studying for credit you will automatically but if you decide not to study for credit I would definitely suggest signing up as alumni which you can do while you're here over the summer and that then will grant you access anyway I think to these offline journals our students say that it's really helpful to be able to access some of the material that they were reading and looking through while they were here so yeah I think that's quite a big thing to mention there so I'm going to move on to the next slide and I think I'm going back to Ruho on this one so just a bit of information about London in the summer So as John mentioned earlier you are going to be based in a location in London our campus is based in Bloomsbury so you're really in the heart of central London you're really closely located to places like Oxford Circus some of our most amazing museums and libraries as well so there will be plenty of opportunity to explore London to get up to some exciting things whilst you study with us I would definitely recommend taking a look at our blog I know I mentioned it before there are some posts that are very much centred around the things that you can do in London we've got a blog post specifically about the parks that we have we've got one about the food that you can eat here which is really great we actually have a really cool farmers market too which I'd recommend trying if you come here so definitely have a look at those and then we also have our student testimonials up on our website which are a bit more general but will also give you an idea of how great it is really to study in London and we'll be having convener interviews going up on our blog too so definitely look out for those you might see the convener of course who are interested in discussing their research and a bit more detail which might be quite useful there was another page on this slide there's so many really useful articles on it's really great to just have a little flick through so I definitely checked that out and yeah basically London in the summer is really an amazing time I think everyone's kind of hibernating over the winter and they're just looking forward to the summer where it gets warmer and you can just go outside into the parks and really explore and just access everything that London has to offer I think the summer is everyone in London really just waits for the summer and it's really really fun time to be here so obviously these courses are kind of perfectly timed for you guys in London what else is I going to say about that but there was something else but yeah I think what I'd say is just definitely check out the blogs that our previous students have written because as Ruha says there are people who have come here hear from their perspectives they've got some really interesting things that they've gone and done places they've gone to visit things that they've eaten and the food they've eaten yeah so something Ruha mentioned is we have the farmers market here on the SOAS campus every Thursday which serves amazing food from kind of all over the world lots of vegetarian and vegan options we always kind of head out there on a Thursday and try all these things we've also got a Harry Krishna stall that serves gives out free food and that's something a lot of students tend to access when they're here on campus and they do really interesting different kind of dishes that they serve up and they give that out for free or you can donate to them so we have Harry Krishna stalls here set up on campus that they're here over the summer as well so that makes food a little bit cheaper for you but also options in London for food I'm very greedy myself I've got a lot of them and yeah you'll never you'll never go hungry I don't think when you come here got some questions here on library after summer school when access to the library so your library accounts are active for three months after the summer school so I think it takes you up until around the beginning of December so if you're staying in London if you're UK based you can still go in and out of the library with your SOAS card until December and your offline access will give you access up until the end of sorry that beginning of December as well so you'll have a few months after the course to access all the materials until your account as a summer school student does expire but as I said if you sign up as SOAS alumni which will send details when we're over here on doing that and so we recommend doing that and that will give you access to the electronic journals and resources that the library offers as well so if that continues then you'll always be a SOAS alumni even if you don't study for credit yeah so again if you don't study for credit definitely sign up as alumni and you'll gain that kind of e-journal access to the online of campus access as well my first time in London how could we manage accommodation and transport in the town so we're actually going to be speaking about accommodation next in fact so that's good timing so if I had to change slides a second and we'll talk about the accommodation options and also transportation around London as well so accommodation we have a range of SOAS halls available over the summer so you can see the three here Urban Nest and Intercollegiate Halls are kind of the top two that we recommend we've arranged discounts at those halls for summer school students as well so this is a discounted rate that you're seeing on the screen Dinwiddie House that's their standard summer accommodation rate from our experience we think the top two Urban Nest and Intercollegiate Halls are probably the nicer of the three Dinwiddie House is great as well but I think in terms of what you get for your money the top two are probably the two better options but space is more limited in these two so I'd say if you're looking at accommodation book that as soon as you can and we'll talk about the booking process in a second all of the halls are located very close conveniently to the SOAS campus I think maximum would be a kind of 15-20 minute walk from I think Urban Nest Kings Cross perhaps is the furthest way but they're all within walking distance for sure and if you were to say jump on the tube the underground it would be about 5 or 10 minutes from SOAS campus so they're all great options really I would just say go and have a look at them do a bit of research on what areas you might want to stay in but they're all kind of around the same central London area Kings Cross is a great area for transport links in terms of just getting around London but also even getting outside of London and exploring the kind of outskirts and other places in the UK booking process you book directly with these halls so when you want to book actually what we in terms of the discounts that we provide for the first two I don't know which one you would like to book there's a special form and a code that we can use for booking these accommodation options so we'll give you a SOAS code and then you can go ahead and make your booking so we'll give you all of those instructions when you're ready to book accommodation and when you apply we send you all that information so you'll get that in an email it's easy to get around London whether you're using the underground whether you're using buses, even bikes a lot of people cycle so if you're used to cycling lots of people cycle around London and there's cycle lanes pretty much all over central London but I would say definitely have some experience of cycling in busy cities roughly just jumping on a bike if you don't have to cycle on a road you can cycle down the canal there's canal paths and really nice way to see London I think it's a regional canal running through central London runs around some of these accommodation options around King Cross and especially in the summer you'll see lots of people walking and cycling up and down the canal and just financially really it's really nice so there's lots of ways to get around buses are really good for quickly getting around and I would definitely suggest getting an app so you could either get a transport for London app on your phone there's also city map app and all of these information all of this info will give you when you arrive as well so those apps on your phone will basically give you all the instructions on which buses to take or which underground lines to take yeah it's always fun always a fun experience trying to get to grips with the London Tube map it takes a while but you'll get there but yeah in terms of travel in terms of these accommodation options and getting to and from campus I think you'll normally walk it pretty quickly and you'll get used to that journey very quickly most of these are a very short distance so I'd really view this as an opportunity to explore London but also to maybe explore a kind of subject that you're interested in we see doing these summer schools as a pathway into further study of SOAS so if you're looking or if you're interested in postgraduate study at SOAS then the summer schools are a way to get a taster of what we do the way we teach and see whether it's right for you also if you're not able to come for a full-time programme then it's a great way to experience what SOAS offers over the summer as well so the first step I guess of applying is making your application fee payment the link to that will be on our website but once you've got that done you can get into the actual process itself all that you're really required to provide are your personal details of course so kind of very standard information you will also be given the opportunity to provide a personal statement so I guess that kind of falls into what you said letter recommendation, written letter that kind of thing so in there you can talk about what's made you apply where you had about our course and so on with regards to the documents that you'll need to provide we do ask that you provide your academic transcripts or an off-letter or a degree certificate anything that confirms your current study at your institution if you are an undergraduate or postgraduate student the only other documents that we'd ask you to provide are based on your English language and proficiency so if English is not your first language you might want to provide an IELTS certificate or another kind of certification of your ability to speak English but the full kind of list of the types of certificates you can provide are listed on our website if you don't have any of those but you've studied that in English speaking institution you can also just provide the transcript and that would be more than enough the main thing about the application form is the personal statement why you want to join the course, tell us what experience you have already and why you're what you're hoping to gain from the course that's really useful so we pass all your application details onto our conveners once you're confirmed and confirmed as attending the course, we'll pass it on to conveners so they'll see your motivation for joining the course and what you want to learn and they'll base their teaching around that as well so they make sure that they're addressing every point that you guys want to cover but other than that it's just transcript, it can be unofficial, it can be official whatever's easiest for you guys to get and if English isn't your first language then some kind of proof of your ability or your English language level and that's about it, rest is quite straightforward I think when you apply it tells you how many pages there are and there's about 50 or so pages so it might look a bit daunting initially but they're very quick, they're literally yes and no answers so it doesn't take very long at all so if you're into teaching for those who are working you would like to learn from a university so if you're employed or working then just a certificate perhaps from your transcript or a certificate of completion of your degree is absolutely fine if you're working and have studied then we're kind of confident that your level is over as well, we just need to be sure that students have got around at least one years undergraduate experience under their belt so they don't struggle with the kind of material and the level that we teach on so if you're employed then I wouldn't worry so much about the transcript but if you've got something that you can attach then great could credit apply during the summer school help to apply in the future for a masters in the UK I mean that depends on the university you're applying with whether they can use that credit but something to say about the credit is that it's undergraduate level so it's not master level credit so I would say most of the time it wouldn't count towards a masters program but you would have to discuss that with the institution that you're applying to our application, official application deadline is at the end of May but I would say apply before the end of March so you qualify for that early bird 10% discount get your applications in now if you can other places limited do I need to be very quick yeah that's a good question Kelly so places do become limited but I'd say at this point you don't need to be very quick we're still relatively early but to be honest we haven't had a course that has filled up and we've had to close in terms of it's filled up and we can't offer anymore places so I wouldn't worry about that we've got space on our courses to accommodate plenty of students so and one of the things about our courses is again that might be different from other places is that you won't be in a massive group of students say 50 plus our courses are usually around between say 20 to 30 students some might be a bit more, some might be a bit less but it's usually quite a small group relatively head to other universities so that's quite a nice thing as well so yeah Kelly don't worry but just get it in before the end of March and you'll be fine our email address and phone number is on screen there you can touch with us and we're really looking forward to welcoming those who do apply and those who come we're really looking forward to welcoming you this summer it's a really exciting time so yeah thank you all so much and see you this summer


Okay boys, we are back once again with another Game Theory FNAF reaction. This one actually crept up on me, I did not realize just how soon this new theory would come out. Then again, he did say next week, honestly it really does not feel like it's been that long since the last reaction. I think it's only been a couple of days, but here we are with part two. Let's not waste any more time at the beginning of this and let's just hop straight into it. Game Theory FNAF, the Faceless Puppet Master. Here we go. What do we got? Also, I'm sick right now boys, so if I sound like I'm dying, it's because I am actually dying. Okay, what's this math drawing right here? Man, look at that stiff arm as he draws footy. What's going on? I mean, it's not bad drawing, to be honest. Alright, sure. Pretty good opening, I like that, it's kind of loud. Feels good. Oh, here we go. Still not red. Into the pit. 1985. Good theory, that last one. Hmm. I wonder if Matt has had time to think about this more, because he said that he had to think about it, so I wonder if he'll return to it. Oh, I don't have it here right now. I do have, um, I don't have that book, it's back, back there, behind the green screen. Oh, I gotta hit myself. Ooh, I got that. That's right here. Yay! Those drawings were just terrifying. Who is this? Snap forward. Like you said in the past, David, but now he's, he's fixing it. Yeah. Oh man, FNAF help wanted, good times. Good times. Oh, boys. Okay, fine. Shame the self-insert. They lied to all of us. Man, those tapes.   The whole thing starts with like, oh, this game designer is a joke, psych. No, he's not. He's actually critical to the lore and is exposing the crimes happening at these restaurants. Boo yah, fool ye again. He's actually. The double of Oskar. He actually settles on this. Damn, Scott. We're like going at it. Hired by Fazbear Entertainment to make indie games. The games that we've all been playing at this point. It doesn't have to look like Scott. October 3rd? It was that long ago?  Got it. See, you guys yelling at me. It's all for nothing. Oh. Hey, guys. Look, I even talked about this in my reaction to that video. Gotcha. He can't help but he doesn't know you're making a vid. Man, I don't have feelings about that either. It's not like I got killed. In PNAF IV I used a picture of a mountain range that I took while I was a truck driver in West Texas. I used a picture of a snowman that me and my older sons made together. I used a picture of a pet mockingbird that we nursed back to help one year. Do these lore significance? Well, you probably already know the answer and quote, Oh, I know the answer, Scott. And that answer is yes, you prid. my ever-decreasing sanity aside it does leave open the door scott's pet mocking boat is cannon and I think that basbair prices story into the pit reveals to us who it might actually be admittedly this is a bit looser of a theory but I think it's one word discussing I believe our secret game designer the one who's been lying to us through is the story's main character Oswald the little ten-year-old boy who winds up in a time traveling ball pit that is the 1985 mercy I'm ready interesting interesting I believe he grows up to be hired on by basbair entertainment to create these games now that might seem like a stretch for a character that we only get to know in the span of 40 pages I mean there are a lot of evidence in those 40 pages to back that assert all right let's see what Matt Oswald has shown to be obsessed with animatronics for no apparent reason quote from the book he didn't know why lately he'd been drawing mechanical animals bears I read I read about this this is the few moments that I actually remember reading sometimes he drew the animals exposed metal skeletons sketch them with the fur peel it was a creepy effect like seeing a person skull remind you this is without him ever ever having a connection to animatronics heck he doesn't have a connection to the pizzeria at this point in the story he has never been there nothing this is just him naturally choosing to draw these oddly specific things without any outside references or influences so already this boy seems to have himself a strange connection to the FNAF lore or is just a psychopath in training but there's more first you don't know time to establish Oswald as a fan of video games be great Japanese movies and manga a lot of time for a 40-page story we hear about him listening to video game soundtracks we witness the debates that he has with his father over cheesy toho style Godzilla how funny he finds the actor's lips not matching up with the dubbed in words in those sorts of movies he visits the library and we hear about his enthusiasm for the latest manga installment now the connection to video games is pretty obvious here right if he likes video games well there's a picture of games roll up to be a designer of video games himself but it's his connection to all the cheesy Japanese films and manga that really got my years turning think back to at various point oh no I don't want to go back to these times each one inspired by those old poorly dubbed Japanese samurai movies the art style clearly riffing on classic anime and manga animation the mysterious designer of the FNAF games who presumably made me would need to be a fan of this style of storytelling to want to incorporate it into his work and here we have ourselves Oswald a person who exists in this universe whose limited characterization is spent establishing him as a fan of exactly this type of storytelling speaking of limited characterization it's a minor what no money is how money strapped Ozzie and his family are the reason he spent so much of his time in the library and the pizzeria is that they're both cheap forms of entertainment during the day because his dad when he's like yeah go to Jeff's pizza his dad's like well not that poor that you can't get pizza again I remember some stuff as his story goes Scott oh no not 50 shades of Scott that's weird as a dollar general store clerk and working on his games at night with none of them going anywhere many of them being poorly received the first Freddy's game was the one where all of his years of hard-working grinding finally paid off there's obviously a lot more to that story but suffice it to say Oswald seems to be a character after Scott's own heart coming from modest means a fan of nerd culture so to see Ozzie be the in-universe programmer of these games to be Scott's literal in-universe standing for himself well it doesn't seem like that much of a scratch okay saying our designer was this strong spooky animatronics comes from a low to modest income family story similar Scott likes the video games and anime is still a bit of a stretch right describe little little kids okay well maybe not all kids have a psychic connection with a decade's old murder restaurant but the rest of it yeah I've been in a time-traveling ball pit if you look at Ozzie's experience with a bathroom restaurant in the story you could see where this baby hey guys what's up the first and most obvious is Jeff the current Jeff Jeff Jeff what happened to you man described in the book like this well Jeff was creepy too he looked a hundred years old but was probably just 30 but those heavy-litted bloodshot eyes stained apron it's one thing to read about descriptions it's another to actually see them zombie pizza chef with a red stained apron it sounds like you could very well be the inspiration behind an undead murderer in a pizzeria who refuses to die that after the game designer hired on by Fazbear Entertainment was tasked to lie about and make light of the murders in the Freddy restaurant you wait you wait games would likely be a mix of reality and fiction Oswald could very well be pulling from his real-life experience I mean that does also have themselves does explain some stuff some sci-fi stuff Mike who outright says this quote you know when I was little I loved Freddy Fazbear's band I even had a stuffed Freddy I used to sleep with and quote really you don't say so Mike a someone makes a passing reference to now for in that conversation Mike also reveals that he has himself a sister oh really you don't say so Mike and then they also talk about how creepy clowns and dolls are whoo whoo whoo whoo whoo apologies that sounded like the it music anyway it doesn't seem to be Mike Afton or Mike Emily you can bet I checked into that one but these conversation was that supposed to be a paper please setting I left a lot like papers please loves the Freddy Fazbear franchise who has himself a favorite Freddy plush who has a sister who loves dolls and becomes a really creepy clown doll hybrid commands an army of dolls herself later in the book Oswald meets a girl named Gabrielle loves Greek myth and gives him the courage to fight back against Golden Bonnie Gabrielle is a very random character but one with again a very Gabriel once again shockingly similar to one of the kids that we find on our gravestone Gabriel even the theme of this short story could have inspired Oswald's games you see after Oswald uncovers the 1985 murders his dad gets sucked into the time travel pit by Golden Bonnie dad sucked in no place so everywhere his dad should be Ozzie instead sees the silent staring Golden Bonnie that's fucking creepy imagine that happening in like real life Jesus his father like normal actually a really creepy disturbing yeah it's great but it's also one that directly ties back to the core motif of the games a father William Afton becoming a golden bunny to terrorize kids including his own son a son who then has to go out seek and ultimately rescue his father in order to end the I'm going to come find you random lines inserted into the story that kind of fit but kind of don't but are also oddly specific to key moments throughout the FNAF franchise like this quote every day you toss me out on the street like garbage end quote which are reminiscent of the FNAF six salvage minigames with animatronics literally being thrown out on the street this line as Ozzie says it in the context of the scene is kind of awkward but if you're looking at it through the lens of hey this is actually a lore connection back to the games now all of a sudden it fits perfectly there are just so many details that line up between Oswald's character interesting and the things that he goes through that line up with someone who could have made the FNAF games who could have concocted parts and pieces of this story even motive wise it makes sense maybe fazbear hires him on because they know he knows the truth and it's to get him to shut up maybe Ozzie accepts the money because a he's poor and B he's scared he knows what they can do to it I mean will any of this ever come into play in any way shape or form unclear probably not but one it actually may be able to help us better separate out the truth from the fiction in the early games of this franchise like knowing zombie people were inspired by Jeff every time I see his face that information off the table and really let us focus in on what truly matters a specific subset of murders but even if it doesn't do anything grandiose like that too I wouldn't be surprised if we end up seeing Oswald again at some point I mean already there's a new teaser for the next installment of fetch fetch fetch a fun scott's website we do that preview soon about the series and its connections with the games in the coming months oh boy that's just of course my name damn it huh well I wouldn't oh yeah I'm actually gonna let this play out because God that stream was incredible I won't say it's a complete stretch this theory it is interesting um like I said I still have not finished reading into the pit so I I don't know all of the details that Matt has been throwing out but I will say it definitely is interesting nonetheless yeah it definitely is interesting nonetheless I really really should get around to um to reading this because it will make it will allow me to understand these theories so much so much better so yeah I gotta get around to that but as for the actual theory again I don't think it was that bad it's very very interesting to think about and I love I would love to see Scott's reaction to this God can you imagine if Scott to like a reaction channel I would love to know like his opinion on this because Matt did connect Oswald with Scott so I would love to know whether or not Scott really does think that Oswald is like the the in-game or like in-book version of himself I think that's very interesting I would love to know Scott's opinion on that yeah that's really all I have to say it's interesting it's not bad again as with all of FNAF theories and maths theories there are a few plot holes here and there and I was very very intrigued to note on whether or not Matt was going to fill in some of those plot holes that he mentioned in the last video but I guess I guess he did he did say he needs time to think about though so maybe in the next game theory for now video he'll he'll address those but I don't know and he may just leave them there and not address them that's that's probably what he's gonna do so it seems like and I really don't know how to think about this but it seems like Matt really is leaning more towards looking at the books and not the games anymore cuz like FNAF AR has come out and in the last theory he mentioned that he should probably do a game theory on it but he hasn't and yet he's done two book theories and it seems like he's going to do more of them when fetch comes out and that just that's very interesting to me the fact that he's moving away from the games and going towards the books more that's something to take note of anyways I think that's it don't need to drag this out for any longer than it has to so I'm just gonna leave that there thank you everyone so much for watching and I guess I'll see you all in the next few months with the next FNAF game theory so again thanks for watching and I'll see you all on the flipside goodbye
