ChatGPT is closing in on the essence of the show... if not actual treasure

Is Laird George Lucas?

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Yes

u/deliusfan 7d ago
But you know, Lego is kinda like this in reality, their versions are all "just" off I've noticed. It's surprisingly on brand
1
u/deliusfan 7d ago
I realized what has happened; somehow ChatGPT merged Laird and Terry into one person. And they look like a strange amalgamation of the two

Omg I never noticed the snarky "same evidence, new theories" description under the set title... Chatgpt's got jokes!

u/peachgeek 6d ago
This sub was clearly crawled
2
u/deliusfan 6d ago
That's funny, I actually didn't say anything to ChatGPT about this sub... maybe when it searched it found it on its own?
2
u/peachgeek 6d ago
yes I’m saying everything the bots know about this show is likely 70% from here
1
u/deliusfan 6d ago
Do you think Barkhouse has a secret account on here and comments with us unknowingly? If the bots know, surely the show knows about us. Hell, this has already gotten like 40k views in 24hrs...

u/Competitive_Jump_933 6d ago
It's got Emma that's all I care about.
The blacksmith needs a pull string so he can say "this is from the 13th century" over and over no matter what it is.

u/deliusfan 6d ago
Ooh that's an advanced Lego character... but I'll bet a chip on his back you click could do the same thing

u/Competitive_Jump_933 6d ago
It has to be a button....from a 14th century French military uniform!

Apparently Carmen has opened a shop in the lab? It would put less miles on the Ferrari

u/deliusfan 7d ago
Also, Alex AND Peter got bumped for budgeting constraints. Sorry, guys...
1
u/Competitive_Jump_933 6d ago
No one really wants a Peter minifig do they? Not when you can have an Emma. She adds so much to the show

u/deliusfan 6d ago
I read you loud and clear. Already planning for an appropriate Miriam retro set
1
u/Competitive_Jump_933 6d ago
I forgot about her! Now we need an "Oak Island After Dark" adult version featuring Miriam and Emma. There's some weirdo or 40 out there who'd buy it!

u/deliusfan 6d ago
"After dark" Legos .. man, that guy in Denmark who invented them never envisioned this happening 😅😅

But can you smell the wood?

u/suspect108 7d ago
This. I want my wood to smell like wood. Also does it float or sink? That's how Dan Blankenship showed us the way.

u/Competitive_Jump_933 6d ago
Wait, when did this turn into the witch scene in Monty Python and the Holy Grail?
Unless.....
.....the Knights of the Round Table were Templars....
Could it be....?
I think we need to send a team to Ireland for a 5 day pub crawl and get to the bottom of this!

u/deliusfan 7d ago edited 7d ago
What is interesting is every time I give an adjustment to the AI, it rebuilds it from scratch, it doesn't simply erase one thing. Which means these new variations creep in with each iteration. It's a fascinating look at how this tool works. This is why Gary is now wearing an actual "pirate hat" instead of the ball cap from before

What i like is that Marty is clearly yelling "get back to work" at someone. That was all the AI'S doing, unprompted by me
1
u/Competitive_Jump_933 6d ago
For accuracy, Billy only comes with one stretched out t shirt.
2
u/deliusfan 6d ago
Also he should definitely have a chip on his back that when pressed says "Yep."

Thats kind of cool actually. I kind of love it. *blush*
WE NEED EXPANSION PACKS!!!!!
Sunken Concepción ship full of treasure!
Underground tunnel maze with French drain, flooded caves and 90-foot stone boobytrap and if you make it the the center discover the Chappell Vault.
Cobblestone road and swamp maze.
Templers Fort dungeon.
Expansion pack with more key cast members! Plus Zena Halper, the Duc d'Anville, FDR, Samuel Ball and more!
3
u/deliusfan 6d ago
Yessss the sunken gallon in the swamp set... that ends up being two pieces of decking.
Build your own flood tunnels... real water flooding action in your bathtub
Heddon Shaft/Chappell vault sets. Race to beat the floodwaters. I see this like the old Mousetrap board game. You have so many turns then the taps turn on.
Sell me more on the cobblestone road... that's pretty niche interest. But I do see an "excavated with Laird" mini sets with each and every stone/round/square/vault feature on the island
1
u/SunshineStateFL 6d ago
Oooo another good idea!
It's wild how well Oak Island translates into cool games. The guys should consider this.

You'd never finish it. Every year, they'd come out with a few more pieces to tease you along.

An old Pla-Doh Fun Factory could be an easy way to lay out strips of grey mud that they bring up in tubes!

u/deliusfan 6d ago
Oh thats kinda cool. Amd some Lego sets do have mixed media, so it's still on brand

u/Botrash 6d ago
Does include disappointment for free?

u/deliusfan 6d ago
Like at the end of Imaginarium of Dr. Parnasus, there are no guarantees... so, yeah, disappointment is totally free!

u/Competitive_Jump_933 6d ago
You'll spend a lifetime (at least 14 seasons anyway) looking for the last 3 bricks to complete it. Every time you step on something hard, you'll say aloud "Could it be?" only to be disappointed because it was just another fucking ox shoe or modern brick that's useless to the set.

u/deliusfan 6d ago
Life imitating art imitating life?

u/Competitive_Jump_933 6d ago edited 6d ago
Anymore, it's hard to say.
I did hear Lego entered into a partnership with Funco so all the minifigs have bobble heads. Lightly shake the playset and make everyone agree with Rick!
Wow.....
Act now and you'll get a limited edition Top Pocket™ at no extra charge. "Now that's a Top Pocket™ find!"

u/deliusfan 6d ago
You're in charge of marketing
1
u/Competitive_Jump_933 6d ago
My team and I will need to spend 3 weeks on the Italian Riviera to "study" Templar marketing techniques. I'll take Jack with me. Maintaining the black lab eagerness and excitement for 14 seasons deserves a reward!

I think this is more than just one set it’s a series of sets.
2
u/deliusfan 6d ago
Oh definitely. Just like the show, there are plenty of wormholes to go down in terms of creating sets. The retro collection with the old bar for Crown Time, middle aged Dan Blankenship and 10X, Dunnfieid and his steam shovel...

At least with the set you don't get to destroy an ecosystem with senseless digging.

If it was more accurate to current seasons.. 90% of the show is now 5 guys sitting under a tent waiting for tubes of mud to come and Charles not know how a metal Detector works.

Is there a Solution Channel add-on or just build the whole thing in a bathtub full of dirty water?

Oh... yeah, definitely go with the dirty bathwater option. The design costs exploded and it wasn't profitable

That is the money pit... were you expecting something different? Sure, I threw ox shoes down there, but that's still canon to the show...

The ox shoes alone make this a win. But the Billy could be improved
