Ludwig's phone-a-friend moment becomes a jewelry discussion
A Pokémon challenge ten years in the avoiding also joins his thirteen-upload week.
Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.
Thanks for the help though I guess…
Calling for help does not necessarily mean getting an answer. That is the running joke viewers have picked up from Ludwig's "Thanks for the help though I guess…", the most-watched of his thirteen new uploads, with about 4.4 million views.
The comments turn a phone-a-friend exchange into two parallel conversations: who would have been a more useful person to call, and which metal makes jewelry leave green marks on skin. Several viewers reach for the Statue of Liberty as their copper-colored clue. Others suggest alternative callers, including Nile. The leisurely pace of the call is itself part of the discussion.
Elsewhere, "I've Avoided This Pokémon Challenge for 10 Years" brings a long-postponed gaming task into the lineup. "And that's why he's my goat" had a considerably bigger first day than the phone-call upload, though the latter has since become the channel's busiest video by daily views. "There's dozens of people just like me..." is also gathering attention, while the previous week's "Just give me a little time..." remains among the strongest daily draws.
Across the channel, the week brought roughly 39 million views and a modest subscriber gain. Daily viewing is now more than twice its usual pace. Among nearby streamer channels, CaseOh is also seeing above-usual daily viewing, while Kai Cenat's channel is having a quieter spell. For Ludwig, the most active corner of this busy week is a call that has viewers supplying the answers themselves.

What viewers say
he should have just called Ludwig for the answer
@zachranson3500See it on YouTubeHe should've called Nile, they've collabed before and that would've been both a funny phone call and actually helpful as well
@KlondukeSee it on YouTubeCopper can be polished and coated to look like gold. I wear a copper ring (not a fake gold ring, I just like copper) and it turns my skin underneath it green.
