DarksydePhil / TheyCallMeDSP / Phil Burnell: General Discussion #2

[GotchaNowScumbag]

- Level 151;
- Every item location in the game spoon-fed to him from the beginning;
- Has a dedicated group of wheelchairs looking for guides non-stop;
- Has a "#elden-ring-library" section in his Discord;
- Used the jump + attack the whole time, which is still considered one of the "cheese strategies" to beat the game;
- Watched multiple streamers fight this boss beforehand.

You forgot the most important part:

- Facetanked 150 deaths until boss RNGd herself into a corner and then mash weapons art.

Every aspect of dsp's life hinges on some aspect of gambling. Lmao

Totally possible to run viewbot instances locally.

Is pigroach setting up 100x virtual machines or whatever and running traffic through a VPN or whatever all on an on site server?

You decide, but please remember his green screen and stream deck.

If someone gave him step-by-step instructions or set it up for him in such a way that he needs to click one or two buttons as part of his stream startup I can see it happening.

Given everything else we’ve seen though, it’s definitely not Occam’s Razor territory. I think it’s more likely that some pig makes it part of his monthly tithe.

 

[SkippyLongbottom]

That was probably the most anticlimactic moment in the whole playthrough.

No skill.
Spam attack with known cheese weapon.
Complete luck with boss attacks.

Congratulations, this run is dead finally.

It wasn't even a "I did it everyone wew that felt great!"
It was a "Boy, glad I lucked out there and got that over with"

He cheated himself. Wasted everyones time playing fairly by his standards and then throwing it away to use an abuseable cheese but it's LEGIT because no summons, somehow.

Honestly we will get a "redemption" run at some point and it will be gay as fuck.

He should of just summoned peeps, would have been more entertaining. What a fucking waste.

The guy who's too dumb and scared to upgrade win8 on his laptop? Yeah, he's for sure running 100x VM's on his NSA-level viewbot farm.

Regarding the view bot speculation:

Using DDM from today's stream I tracked DSP's public facing view count in 5 second increments (he went down at approximately 12:56:45 pm for about 4 minutes and 50 seconds.

I have an idea for some empiric testing to try and put this to bed one way or the other, but for now here's the control data. Green dot means stream was active at that timestamp, red dot means he was offline/buffering.

What the fuck is this?

 

[Mask_de_SMITH]

Always thought it was super retarded when Phil started calling his prestream a pahdcast because besides his sad lonely ass I've never seen a podcast that was permanently 1 person.

It isn't a podcast, and he knows it.

He's just calling it one because it removes two birds with one stone: he gets to keep his pre-stream rants and stall before playing a game while he waits for new fans that never come, while also providing his views with an illusion of new khantent. Now every time someone says he doesn't have new khantent on his channel, he can just point to the pahdcast. "Look, see! I do have other stuff on my channel!"

It's such a fucking joke. DSP provides nothing else that any other gaming-based YouTube channel already has, and can do much better. Anyone with even a hint of self-reflection would just hang this shit up and get a real job, but this is Phil we're talking about.

So this is a video about using a view bot. for those curious.

The default CHAT TIMEOUT on youtube when you end a live stream or a stream gets cut do to connection issues is 5 minutes.

So when a live stream buffers or goes down and you can use, James's, Proper's, An's or Shinko's streams that have connection issues the viewers don't drop when the stream has issues. Phil, within less then 15 seconds instantly started losing viewers. Now unless every viewer lives within say a 3 mile radius of the same NODE Phil is on then that would explain it.

Otherwise HE is the one using the view bots, if it were one of the wheelchairs it is unlikely the view bots would drop unless its like Phil's neighbor running them. I've never seen a live stream lose so many viewers when there's a connection issue like this.

Remember the CHAT is not run on Phil's end, its run on the YOUTUBE side of things. Phil just initiates the stream and all chat functions runs off of YOUTUBE share servers. The closest server to Phil from YouTube is Oregon, so there goes that theory as well.

Whether its him or someone else doing this, he seems to be aware of some artificiality on his view count and that's why he leans on his dents so much for support. I'm leaning that the view botting is somehow coming from him, since the fluctuations appear to be connected to offline/buffering on his end.

Even if one of the autists wrote a script for Phil, I refuse to believe he would have a python environment to run it in.

Either the script checks to see when the stream is up or it's a byproduct of the API. If the stream isn't up do you get a landing page or what?

 

[LieLieFyre]

If bots but a large strain on his PC it would explain why his lemon can't play anything more intense than a flash game. Right?

To add to this, would botting views cause lag? Let's say he's honest and does lag as often as he claims, could this be the reason?

 

[TurdFondler]

Did we crack the case, lads?

This might actually be a use case for his business class internet.

[King of Not Playing Games]

Is viewbotting something that can be run from one computer? I figured it was more of a distributed thing, where a bunch of servers all over the world are using different IP addresses to log in to old/unused/compromised YouTube accounts.

 

[Wasabi Panda]

Back from break
Kills her with weapon art cheese that I mentioned earlier with said Blasphemous Blade.

lol. Guardian Ape situation again.
Says he beat it legit after saying how much luck he got because she didn't do any of the hard hitting moves. Welp it was fun everyone.

Ha!

Christ phil you really do suck.
