OBJECTION UNDER RULE 5
Suspected bot engagement / engagement groups / bought comments, and the 3-video limit (Rule 4)
Entries covered (standings screenshot: link):[list=1]
This objection is posted under Rule 5. I believe these entries may break the Disqualification rules on
bot engagement, engagement groups and bought comments, and three of them may break the limit of 3 videos per entry (Rule 4). I treat all four entries the same way.
1. Summary| What | @coachrosechannel | @oxaisweety | @coach-kitti | @l_digitalwealth |
| Videos in standings (limit: 3) | 5 | 3 | 19 | 4 |
| Views / likes (these videos) | 2,560 / 334 | 1,260 / 60 | 2,261 / 207 | 1,401 / 305 |
| Comments incl. replies (of which written by the channel itself) | 946 (402) | 1,137 (553) | 344 (12) | 370 (5) |
| Commenting accounts (without the channel itself) | 87 | 72 | 23 | 109 |
| New accounts (created Oct 5, 2026 or later) and their share of the comments | 16 (14%) | 49 (75%) | 7 (31%) | 61 (60%) |
| New accounts whose first comment came within 60 seconds of creation | 15 of 16 | 46 of 49 | 7 of 7 | 46 of 61 (57 within 5 min) |
| New accounts that commented on 2 or more videos | 13 of 16 | 11 of 49 | 5 of 7 | 55 of 61 |
| Biggest account-creation burst | no burst (max. 2 in one day) | 20 on Nov 6, 14 on Nov 8 | no burst (max. 2 in one day) | 50 on Nov 8 |
| Comments per 100 views, compared with the same channel's other videos | 37 vs 24 | 90 vs 3.3 | 15 vs 0.10 | 26 vs 1.15 |
2. MethodI pulled the comments (including replies) of every video in the standings with the official YouTube Data API v3 (commentThreads, comments and channels endpoints) on Nov 9, 2026 at 07:47 UTC. All times are
UTC and come directly from the API. Counts include replies, so they match what YouTube shows. Comments written by an entry's own channel are not counted as commenters. "New account" means a channel created on or after Oct 5, 2026. The per-account tables are in the evidence workbook (see Evidence), so every number can be recalculated.
3. Rule 4: "Up to 3 videos each"[/color]The standings show
5 videos for @coachrosechannel,
19 for @coach-kitti and
4 for @l_digitalwealth (@oxaisweety shows 3). I do not know how the tracker scores the extra videos, so I ask the bounty manager to check how Rule 4 is applied to these three entries.
A. @coachrosechannel (1st, 5 videos)A1. 16 of the 87 commenting accounts are new (created Oct 13 to Nov
. 15 of them posted their first comment within 10 seconds of being created, and 13 of the 16 commented on 2 or more videos. They wrote 79 of the 544 comments (14%).
A2. New accounts: RichaphonPahonpakdee, จีราภาเหมือนซื่อ, Ramphueng-j9u, PhawanaLummapuech, KriangkraiTiemtas, BbBb-g8s6q, Richaphon-b8d, นวรัตน์คงทอง-จ8ฆ, ลํายวงแจ้งกลีบ-ษ4ม, TipsitaChotkerewan, prayatteekhawong, PhetcharaphornIntana, ละเอียดกองอุนนท์, เพ็ญศิริสอาดเย็น, nongworachit, Nisarat-h6v.
A3. What I do not claim. The comment volume per view (37 per 100 views) is similar to this channel's other videos (24), and 71 of the 87 accounts are older accounts. I have not counted them as bots.
A4. Accounts shared with @l_digitalwealth. 19 accounts commented on both entries. They wrote 146 of the 544 comments (27%) on @coachrosechannel and 74 of the 365 comments (20%) on @l_digitalwealth. 17 of the 19 are older accounts. Examples: @neenee6840 (28 comments on @coachrosechannel, 5 on @l_digitalwealth), @จาน่ารักsmilelove (24 and 3), @upinwarorost4612 (17 and 11). @โค้ชนิกกี้ commented on three entries (5 on @coachrosechannel, 11 on @l_digitalwealth, 1 on @coach-kitti). I do not say these accounts are fake. I ask the bounty manager to judge whether this is an engagement group.
B. @oxaisweety (2nd, 3 videos)Videos:
9F6pzAfdqTE,
iaHKkgHkdkw,
IYQkM85DwZ8.
B1. Most commenting accounts are new. 49 of the 72 commenting accounts (438 of 584 comments, 75%) were created on Oct 6 or later, in five groups: Oct 6 (8 accounts), Oct 7 (3), Nov 5 (4), Nov 6 (20) and Nov 8 (14). 43 of the 49 posted 3 or more comments (median 9).
B2. First comment seconds after creation. 46 of the 49 new accounts posted their first comment within 10 seconds of the account being created. On Nov 6, 20 accounts were created with a median gap of 4.0 minutes between two accounts.

E. Links between entriesE1. The channel of @coach-kitti is
publicly subscribed to @coachrosechannel. @coach-kitti commented 13 times on 4 videos of @coachrosechannel (AZf7imYwrWQ, NYYKVkPWEME, kkvAoTh8DWc, UJKaw0zyNX0). @coachrosechannel commented 3 times on videos of @coach-kitti (0ic_ktxBlK4, zXFwzz60MDQ, OuvO6756tco) and 5 times on videos of @l_digitalwealth (NNwFs0HIY4M, rH7ubFoCiLI, PpJiQbEXvoc).

E3. I cannot tell from public data whether these channels are run by one person or by several people who support each other. I ask the bounty manager to compare the registered wallets and BitcoinTalk accounts of the four entries against Rule 1 (one person, one channel, one entry). I found no shared commenters and no direct link between @oxaisweety and the other three entries.
