* Trogdor7620: I've been a big fan of the guys for a very long time, but I'm of the opinion that Mario Party 3 was one of the weakest projects, for a variety of reasons. However, none stick out so much as the Koopa Kard catastrophe. When Jon receives a Koopa Kard in a hidden block, Emile lands on an Item Space and grabs a Plunder Chest, hoping to steal it. That's not what irks me, because, come on, it's Mario Party, who wouldn't try to steal it? Emile then says to Jon "Use your Skeleton Key on the door", which he does, emptying his inventory and guaranteeing that Emile will steal the Kard. Come Emile's next turn, out comes the Plunder Chest, and Jon's Koopa Kard is now in Emile's hands. Again, that's not what irks me, because, again, it's Mario Party. What DOES irk me is Emile stating "By the time you'd done it, it was too late to give you advice otherwise". I, personally, have a very hard time believing that. There was 18 seconds between Emile suggesting that Jon open the door, and him actually doing it, more than enough time to warn him about what was about to happen. At this point, in my opinion, Emile seems to have just been unnecessarily kicking Jon while he was down.

* K-Star700: First thing that comes to mind in terms of a DMOS that hasn't been listed is more directed at Emile specifically (although Jon is a little responsible for one small problem): Kirby Star Allies Episode 18 - Not So Helpful Waddle Dee. This episode is notable for Emile trashing on Bandana Waddle Dee for the pettiest of reasons: disagreeing with Kirby fans for wanting him to be PromotedToPlayable in VideoGame/SuperSmashBros. Jon, despite only seeing him viable as an Assist Trophy for starters, at least defends him by turning the "Hat Goomba" allegations on its head, but the DMOS doesn't come from Emile's differing opinion. No, it comes from his incompitence on failing to switch Waddle Dee's element from ice to fire. HE'S the one who had to trigger the mechanic since he was the only fire elemental in the group (Magolor with the revolving fireballs), but he's so impatient and condescending that he doesn't realize this and blames it on the AI, and the way he words it makes it sound like he's blaming it on Waddle Dee in particular. Unfortunately, Jon is stuck in a loop as well, not realizing the oversight either, and gives up by switching the AI to Jammerjab.
-->'''Emile:''' See, this is why you shouldn't be in VideoGame/SuperSmashBros.!

* [=DevNameless=]: As TRG is one of my favorite groups of [=LPers=], I will say that, in my opinion, one of the only Let's Plays of theirs I'd ever say I honestly don't like is their ''Mario Party 8'' one, just because there's an overbearing aura of negativity I get from it. I don't intend this as a HePannedItNowHeSucks kind of thing. 8 may be my favorite Mario Party, but I am humble in accepting if there are people that don't like it. It's more just the sensation I get that they're just not having a good time in general, which brings the mood of the Let's Play down and makes it hard to watch for me, because it just subtracts from the experience of the videos. The Runaway Guys, even when they get worked up, I can tell they're at least able to appreciate the experience, but here, they just don't seem to be on their A-game since they're clearly not enjoying the playthrough.
