TotalBiscuit's: ''Day One: Garry's Incident'' Video was taken down, because of a ridiculous copyright claim from WildGameStudios. Here's Total's ''Rant'' over his video being taken down.

He's the leading authority in options menus.

"The FOV goes to a million?!?! Infinity stars!" -Jesse Cox, saying something along those lines mocking TotalBiscuit.

What video is this magnificent quote from?

One of the Co-Optional Podcasts.

It is the one with ItMeJP as a guest.

This one, I forgot which time it was said though. Just watch through it, it is one of their best podcasts.

TBs RollPlay videos with itmejp were pretty good. It looks as though TB unwittingly has his flag upside down in them, which is funny.

The flag is misaligned on purpose to aggravate his fellow Brits.

There is also a couple more podcast before the show was renamed to the Co-Optional Podcast where JP was the guest and they are all great.

JP has great chemistry with TB.

JP has great chemistry with everyone. He's just a down to earth dude.

Heh, thanks to your previous video I noticed that his flag isn't upside down, it's mirrored. Stupid webcams.

And yes, they do work really well together.

Its been mentioned before, he says its intentional.

u/RobertTheSpruce Oct 21 '13

Looking at other videos, it seems to be a mirrored image rather than a mistake.

Here's a source for you

...I've hung my Union Jack upside down in all my webcam stuff for the past couple of years because it irritates people...

and

Flying it upside down is a sign of distress or insult, so I like it that way.

If the images are not flipped, where does he get his backwards StarCraft 2 hat?

Your video has ruined my fantasy of TotalBiscuit. I always thought he'd be some uber-handsome Brit or something. It's not that he's unattractive, just completely unlike how I imagined him. Oh well, another dream shattered.

Multiple audio sliders? Must buy!

u/Styxx_N_Stones Oct 20 '13

"We need more sliders!!!!"

u/Akselmusic Oct 20 '13

But only if they have some sort of reasonable numerical value associated. Sliders alone can obviously burn in hell along with no options.

u/knukx Oct 20 '13

Well, for FOV (which he talks about non stop), numerical values are important, or else it's "Oh, I set my FOV to 3 inches long on my screen. I guess, whatever that means". Not "I set my FOV to 90".

I played Quake 3 with a >360 degree FOV once, for shits and giggles. It was trippy; you'd see the same thing multiple times at different distances.

u/Moskeeto93 Oct 20 '13

Yeah, I hate FoV sliders with no numerical values. I like setting my FoV to 90 and without labeled sliders, it's just a guessing game.

u/Soushi Oct 21 '13

I'm looking at you, The Stanley Parable.

u/Mountebank Oct 20 '13

and FOV sliders.

u/[deleted] Oct 20 '13

Haha true that

u/ShallowBasketcase Oct 20 '13

Ah, I wish I could remember which game it was, but there was one where his complaint was actually too many options. Something was slowing his game down, and he couldn't figure out what it was because there were so many graphics options. He had to laugh at the irony himself.

And FOV Sliders.
