An actual good ZP-stylee thing

There's no easy way of saying this without sounding like a hypocrite, but with him being American and trying ludicrously hard to sound English from some county wherein the entire population hunts pheasants, he just sounded purely smug.
I saw the one that was good enough to attract Yahtzee's attention himself, and didn't have the same problem because he was American and made no bones about it.
OK, it was intelligent and rather witty (aside from using "bugger off", again being American), I'll give you that.

Well, I myself have an American accent even though I'm middle eastern.
As for the video, his attempt on doing a British accent was funny. Its like he was trying to be funny rather than a Yahtzee.

Yeah fake accents suck; and I could care less about philosophy, really.
At least the guy made enough of an attempt at replicating the ZP look that it didnt come off shitty.

Oh, don't get me started on The Problem of Induction.
It's still a little weird... Pretty close, but off. A big difference was character size compared to desk size, but perhaps that's because ZP Yahtzee is supposed to be 8 feet tall, and his desk is therefore much smaller, relatively speaking.

Yeah, and his immigration papers say 'Baronet Thistlethwaite of Derbyshire'.
I happen to know a Thistlethwaite...

I concur. He did a good job. But from the first 10 seconds it looked like he was going to do far too much movement. The good thing about Yahtzee's ZP is the imagery doesn't distract you from the words.
