History Headscratchers / Chuggaaconroy

* Throughout his second ''VideoGame/EarthBound'' LP, Chugga keeps talking about his insecurities about the way he says "hamburger." But, does he even say it any differently than how it's supposed to be said?

** It doesn't help that Chuggaa's interactions with her often fuel the speculation that they are dating.

* Considering all the drama and arguments surrounding rumors about him and LetsPlay/MasaeAnela dating, why don't they just come out and say they are or aren't to calm it down? Whenever the question actually comes up, they just ignore it or dance around it.

* In Animal Crossing Welcome Amiibo, he attends Egbert's birthday and explains how birthdays work. Why? He already explained how Animal Crossing birthdays work during the original LP (at least during the second half).

** His videos are usually live commentary. Post-commentary is done for parts where he should've said something in live that he didn't, when doing it live would be difficult or detrimental, or when skipping past a portion of the game and thus presumably not speaking in live. He might also sometimes do it for some of his informative bits (seeing as they definitely sound like he's reading from a script), or just to redo a bit of commentary if he flubbed his words, but that's standard fare. And he hides it (usually) in these cases because otherwise it would break the flow.

** Also I would be really surprised if he had done post commentary for his reaction to the shiny koffing he caught in Pokemon Crystal and the reaction to catching Groudon in Pokemon Emerald

** He doesn't. If you watch his Animal Crossing videos, he explicitly mentions that "fishing while doing live commentary is really hard".....

* Why does Chugga try to hide that his videos aren't live commentary?

** Never mind, Chuggaa addressed this himself in Episode 22. The reason he doesn't do this is not because he didn't think about it, it's because he's been having the worst luck with Monster Claws. According to him, he once spent 30 minutes grinding without obtaining a single one.

* In ''VideoGame/TheLegendOfZeldaSkywardSword'' why doesn't Chuggaa just grind for Monster Claws whenever he doesn't have enough for an upgrade? They can be easily obtained by killing Keese until they drop enough for the upgrade in the Waterfall Cave which is right in Skyloft, where the Bazaar is.

** He probably does. He just sees the optimal strategy as going for the most powerful threat (aka Rookie).

* In Superstar Saga, he complained about Popple not doing much before running away. Does he not know that getting rid of Rookie first automatically results in Popple running away? I just found it weird considering he did know that attacking Popple while Rookie is around results in Rookie throwing hammers.

** Someone make a DeathBattle out of this.

** He thought she looked really creepy, and because her arrival coincided with him having a small time error with his game, he jokingly concluded that she was a zombie formed from him causing a glitch in the fabric of reality. And since then, her choices of wording and dialogue have inadvertently helped this interpretation. He's just kept rolling with it, even though he likely doesn't hate her, because it ruins the immersion that he talks about sometimes if he just plain ignores stuff she says and does. Hence why he also takes animals' wording into consideration with his choices, such as the RunningGag of Croque being a jerk just because his CatchPhrase "as if" makes half the stuff he says seem like sarcasm, or letting Stinky move out just because his randomly generated reason was to "get out of cleaning" when this was technically no different from when Shari said she might move out for different, less comedic reasons.

*** After months of careful analysis, observations of the specimens conclude... Slavinater stares down his miniature foe....and then just steps on him, killing both Steve the Pikmin and Steve the Meme, because A) Chuggaa isn't the only one tired of that meme, and B) Steve is less than an inch tall and Pokemon are much stronger beings than humans.

* So...would someone care to explain what's so bad about Shari?

* Hypothetical: [[PikMin Steve]] vs. [[PokemonRubyAndSapphire Slavinator]]. Who wins?

** Someone make a DeathBattle out of this.

* Hypothetical: [[PikMin Steve]] vs. [[PokemonRubyAndSapphire Slavinator]]. Who wins?

** I just assumed he did it a sort of grand finale for the final battle.

* What the hell is with Chuggaaconroy's fans? Seriously, in the first part of the Horror Land board on LetsPlay/TheRunawayGuys channel, a user stated that he hated Chugga, and they all tore him a new one, but on the final part they're all calling LetsPlay/ProtonJon a huge jerk just because he didn't let Chugga win. Seriously, it's like FanMyopia at it's worst.
** ...Um, it's fun to call Jon a jerk. We all know he hams it up and doesn't really act like that in real life, but it's fun to call him it because it's just so damn funny.
*** Is that your justification for comments like "FUCK U JON CHUGGA DESERVED TO WIN" (not remotely an exaggeration)?
*** ...You know, when I wrote the comment above yours, I meant it in jest.
** Also, FanDumb at its finest. Chugga himself doesn't condone this behavior.
** That's not true. He has talked about his FanDumb a few times. Some examples are in [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EYhKA5EKlBM#t=4m58s this anniversary video]] and in [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2TC7qWo73kA this incident]] where they went entirely too far. His fanbase is pretty notorious for blowing things way out of proportion, and I wish they'd just grow up.

* Why is Chugga called the "most popular [=LPer=]" on YouTube when there are others that are more popular than him, such as {{Tobuscus}}, PewDiePie, and UberHaxorNova?
** Do they even call themselves Let's Players?
** Those three strike me less as Let's Players and more as Entertainers. Instead of showing off a game, which is the draw of a let's play, their draw is more the players and their reactions. It's a comparison of which is the primary entertainment, the game or the player? If it's the game or even, it's likely a Let's Play. If not, then it's likely an Entertainer.
** That description is outdated. It was made before those three guys were known.
** Tobuscus isn't entirely an [=LPer=]. Whilst he does Let's Plays, his channel isn't purposely for them. So you can't really count him as a "more popular [=LPer=] then Chugga".
** Is Pewdiepie really technically Let's Playing though? I don't think playing a game and showing it online is all that makes a Let's Play, so I don't really count him as a Let's Player.
** Well technically, that is what a Let's Player is. Someone who basically play's games, provides a commentary over the game play and then uploads it onto the internet. There are different styles of Let's Players though. Chugga is one who plays the game, but also intends for it to be a walkthrough, so makes sure to tell the audience where everything is. But then you get ones like LetsPlay/NintendoCapriSun who just play the game and provides an entertaining commentary. So Pewdiepie does qualify as one.
** Personally, I'd identify a Let's Play as being an informative play though of the game. Basically, it's a walkthrough, except with people talking over it. PewdiePie doesn't really Let's Play, as such; he does reaction videos, meaning that he's playing it blind, is recording his reactions to the game's plot, has no clue what he's doing and anyone using one of his series as a guide is going to either get incredibly lost or be severely disappointed. LetsPlay/NintendoCapriSun does do Let's Plays, however, because he's played these games before(except for when they're marked as being blind), as evidenced by the amount of time he spends talking about his practice file.
** So you don't count all blind Let's Play's, that's half the LP's out there. By comparison, there are only a few Let's Players that intend for their LP to be used as a walkthrough. [=LPers=] are generally for entertainment purposes. If they can be used for walkthroughs, that's great. But if you need a walkthrough, you generally use a walkthrough, not an LP. Let's use LetsPlay/NintendoCapriSun again as an example. Sure, he has obviously played the games before. But he doesn't spend the whole video specifically pointing out everything nor does he go for 100% completion.

** Tobuscus isn't entirely an LPer. Whilst he does Let's Plays, his channel isn't purposely for them. So you can't really count him as a "more popular LPer then Chugga".

** He was probably intending to catch it with something weaker. He did call it his ace in the hole, after all.

* So when he's fighting Evice in Pokemon Colosseum, why didn't he throw the Master Ball as soon as Tyranitar was sent out? What was the point in weakening it?
