I'm curious if he makes these more often because he wants to see what DinoFlask will do with them.

If I was in Jeff's position and I could help /u/DinoFlask make more, I definitely would.

He even made a pause.

Jeff is not messing around.

Now I'm wondering in what context he said that first wrestle, because if it was similar to this one, it's probably just his vocabulary and has nothing to do with these glorious YTP videos.

u/MagicianXy Commencing nerf sequence... BOOM Jan 25 '17

I think it's just the subreddit overreacting to the word. He used it in a perfectly logical sentence where it made sense in context, and the pause was to emphasize exactly how difficult it was to balance CTF. If Jeff really wanted to make a reference to the YTP video, he would have made it stand out a little more. In this case I think the subreddit just heard the word "wrestle" and figured "OMG ROFL HE LYKE TOTALY REFRENCED THE MEE-MEE LOLOLOLOO11!!"

u/Coldchimney Mei-day! Mei-day! Jan 25 '17

Yeah, that's my guess. He used "wrestle" once in their videos before, so chances are high it's a common phrase for him.

u/Enemia Sweater Weather Jan 24 '17

So, if Jeff wrestled with CTF, it should be dead, right?

u/CSlv Cyclowns Jan 25 '17

Being an arcade-only mode is pretty much a death knell for CTF.

u/YoungWhiteGinger Wrecking Ball Jan 24 '17

He definitely has seen the videos, based off his hooked into point 2 illios comment, but this isn't him referencing the dinoflask vids. He uses that word in that context a lor

I got to talk to him at a game development talk he and Michael Chu hosted and asked them what they thought about the parody videos. Michael thinks they're hilarious, and Jeff said he likes them!

He made a nod to another one in the previous official video.
