So this video is a really good and interesting to watch even if you’re a bro or non bro ** 

But there’s this one part at 8:50 that just isn’t correct. I wasn’t really bothered by it, since this is the “Game Theorist” not “Game Facts”. But I’ve seen more and more taking this to heart as fact. Even saying it’s the only reason my channel grew. - I wouldn’t mind people believing whatever about how my channel grew. But now I see people saying that I’m exploiting the system on YouTube?

So I felt like it was time to set this straight really quick:

So basically what Matthew speculated was that; since I’ve moved so much during my YouTube “thing?” (From Sweden to Italy to UK). I’ve been promoted by YouTube locally in all these countries. - and managed to get an unfair advantage by doing so through extra views. 

This would actually make a lot of sense, but it just isn’t true. I’ve never been on the UK frontpage and I’ve never been on the Italy frontpage. YouTube only puts me on the frontpage of Sweden, since my account is created with Sweden as my nationality. Regardless of where I move this never changes. This goes for everyone on YouTube.

So here’s an example of comments I see from time to time: 

I went to Japan last week which was the first week holiday I’ve taken in 2½ years. I also make 5-15 minute videos, because that’s what I think is a good time for a YouTube video, no other reason. 99% of YouTubers upload with this length as well by the way.

Tl:Dr this entire post is pointless, but I wanted to get that out. 

Money changes people, but not everyone =.=
