Mizkif Addresses Cheating On OTK Game Show

Mizkif, a popular Twitch streamer, addressed the widespread cheating on his quiz show Schooled! , and detailed why he believes certain streamers have broken the rules of the program. 

Schooled! is a game show created by OTK. Eight streamer competitors are put to the exam on typical school subjects like math, social studies, science, and geography. The questions increasingly get more difficult as the potential reward, in the form of gifted substitutes, climbs from kindergarten through 12th grade. 

During math questions, googling answers, seeking outside assistance, and using calculators are all prohibited. Previous contestants, on the other hand, have not been deterred. Schooled! is now in its second season. has had a long-running problem with cheating streamers. The issue resurfaced after two candidates, Mia Malkova and TheNicolet, were discovered cheating during the most recent show. 

Mizkif responded to the outrage by saying that he doesn’t believe streamers cheated for money, but rather to defy preconceptions. Mizkif stated; “It’s just a stupid mistake. I do think a reason why some people cheat is because they don’t want people to think they’re stupid because people perceive streamers as dumb.”

This rationale was particularly poignant for women broadcasters, according to the OTK co-founder. Mizkif said; “That especially goes to women. A lot of times people are like ‘oh wow, this girl, all she’s known for is her tits. They want to prove they’re not just a girl with tits. They want to prove themselves.” 

The Schooled! The host went on to claim that he is frequently aware of when streamers cheat on his show, but that he does not want to call them out in front of a live audience.
