Game Grumps (YouTube) played eachother, here's the analysis of the first episode

You have a link to this episode? These guys are clearly both beginners but it's nice that they made the video :)
All moves before 3...g5? are pretty reasonable. Then it just gets out of hand.
Your liberal use of symbols is distracting and out of control. ? should be for the loss of a pawn or a significant positional error. ?? is normally reserved for moves that lose an entire piece or get mated by force. ?! should be used for moves that are mostly bad, not any move you disagree with. For instance, 2.Nc3 isn't dubious, and is usually played in conjunction with Grand Prix moves e.g. f4, Nf3, Bc4, etc. 2.d4 is far more common and best by test. Obvious moves like 2.d4 don't deserve an exclamation point.

You're right, but I'm trying to emphasize what was good/bad/sortof bad/ whatever because I'm linking this to a forum where nobody plays chess, the game grumps subreddit
