I decided to get a jump on an issue I have with my incredibly stumpy lawn.
Thank you to Armando for giving me the lawn mower

This is a reupload, with clarifying additions. The original version I failed to mention the drilledout holes in the axe container for water drainage. I've spliced in a clip for clarification, not shown in the original version. I unfortunately had to reshoot that scene twice due to a framing issue, and forgot to mention the holes in the second shoot.
I used this reupload as an opportunity to play a game, and released the new version as a Premier. The object of the game was to "select the edit". Basically I picked a "clever" edit and asked the audience to guess which edit I had picked as the edit to find. There was mass confusion on the object of the game, with many thinking it was a "spot the difference" game, though I thought I was clear it was not that sort of game. I posted the instructions of the game in the Community Tab confirming numerous times that the game was not to find the new edit (used for clarification within the video about my use of drain holes in the mod I made for my lawn mower), or that there was any new edit of any kind to find pertaining to the game being played (I suppose it would be a bonus if you did notice the spliced in clip), but that there was an edit in the original version that was meant to be pointed out. This edit remained the same in the new version of the vlog., as did all the rest of the video, minus what was explained about adding a clip for clarification. Find the instructions here

and added the same instructions into the comment section.
I admit that i'm not the best at explaining things all the time, so i'm not surprised that there was some folks who misunderstood the object of the game. Many thought it was to find new edits, because of coarse there was one new edit. This of coarse was not the edit i wanted found, if you read the instructions or watch the video explaining the game.
If you'd like to watch the 2 second shorter version to compare the edits, here is the link.

This will prove that the videos are virtually identical, except the edit I made clear would be put in, which again had nothing to do with the game.
The object of the game was to incentivize folks to rewatch a video they basically already saw, so as to garner views matching the first version, that had since been "taken down", due to my error in not including a clarifying remark about objects within said video. The result , much confusion amongst some folks.
After this video finished premiering with 2 winners to the game, we did a live video to announce the winners and further clarified to people the object of the game with further context being experience by the act of actually playing the game and seeing the result

Still some confusion as to what the object of the game was. That it wasn't about finding new edits, or the actual new edit promised, but about finding an "easter egg" in the form of an edit that appeared identical in both versions of the vlog. It could have been any edit within the video. I just chose one at random that I liked and the object of the game was to guess the edit I chose. I even gave some vague hints in the live video (the one mentioned above) explaining the game that it could be about the words that appear on screen. This is something I did for fun to see if anyone would pick up on it, I am not sure if anyone did. The edit I chose to have people guess was the edit where "first mow, then snow, then tow" appear on the screen, with "tow" quickly changing to "two." The edit was a silly clever way to make the three sentences rhyme, and then change to make sense within context.
And this is how there came to be so many videos pertaining to one vlog! Haha.
Thank you to everyone who played. Congrats Annet and Suz. Sorry to anyone else who couldn't understand the game. Next time it will be easier as there will be less elements to contend with.
Thankyou for reading my novel. This is my last attempt at clarifying the game. lol.
Check out my stuff
