DarksydePhil / TheyCallMeDSP / Phil Burnell: General Discussion #2

[PieceofShet]

Its pointless to think what would happen. IT WILL NEVER HAPPEN! HE WILL NEVER GO TO A PUBLIC EVENT!

 

[Michael Janke]

Why would any event let a 300 viewer Andy onto a panel?

This is totally ignoring the rest of the facts about this guy being a scumbag

i wonder how many people would show up to a phil panel.
would tevin and other trolls show up just to mess with phil. if phil does a panel, imagine the questions they'd ask him?
i think a decent amount of people would show up to a phil panel.

back when phil used to have panels, it wasn't just him though, he had panda lee, rambo and howard joining him. plus a few other people they knew from the FGC.

 

[Balr0g]

what do you mean my time is up? i haven't started the panel yet
THAT WAS THE PREPANEL PODCAST DOOD

Did you ever see the panel he did at Magfest with the rest of his then friends? He gave the audience his whole "I do Youtube since blablabla" spiel. I think it is ingrained in him to tell everyone his life story like some autisitic tick or something

 

[Iron Hamster]

This is pure speculation on my part, but I think the convention idea might be Phil fishing for a hotel staycation.

People that live in poverty as Phail claims to don't get vacations.

I honestly think he should just go to a convention unannounced.

But then how could he play the victim?

 

[SupremeVictory]

Nah, that's his ego still riding 4th Place EVO to this day. He always plays his rep the way it suits him in any given moment - sure, he claims to be small time but simultaneously he still will insist he's a big fish when it matters.

I wish I knew what took the fight out of Phil. He was a competent enough player even though he didn't place high at a lot of tournaments prior to 4th Place EVO.

 

[Lei Wulong's Left Leg]

I find it highly unlikely Phil would ever do something like a convention. Given how often he leaves the house as is, this isn't something he'd willingly do unless there was some crazy purse attached to it. And it's already been proven that he won't jump for 50k, after all. Besides, can you imagine how much he would seethe if even a single person asked him a question that was slightly off colour? What's he gonna do, snap his fingers and have two burly security guards escort the person out of the room?

 

[tzgnilki]

There is 0 chance of Phil going to a physical convention. Anyone who's been following him for some time knows this.

So why did he post it?

My guess is his rebuttal to this moderately popular post on his subreddit /r/dspdiscussion4. Note 14 hours ago.

It calls him out perfectly, here's one comment..

View attachment 3442388

6 hours ago he brings out his tweet, to LARP as someone who isn't a social retard and self imposed hermit.

that redditfag needs to lurk more, he didn't show up cause this was peak covid and the court system was jacked up, anyone with a sore vagina had to stay at home

if I debunk 1/53 things, that means i've debunked everything, ok alright

 

[Cardef1121]

I don't know if anyone has suggested this, as I'm quite far behind, but I think Keem was looking to turn the three stooges into a managed show/"podcast" akin to the setup Perry Caravello has going on with either Keem himself or, more likely someone he had in mind, playing the role of Tom who manages the 'talent' and wrangles the audience.

imagine a DSP, Wings, and Boogie podcast hosted by Keemstar.
that'd be shit for the birds. imagine phil just giving his hot takes on any drama keemstar brings up and somehow relating it to himself and how he'd been wronged in the past.
"Kobe died today and my save file corrupted, what a shit day."- he literally said that, not word for word.

 

[Iron Hamster]

He should make Perry the dsp replacement and let it be known he was the second choice.

I assume much better competition once real money could be made. Back in the early 00s, in order to survive you needed to be Justin Wong, have rich parents or bury yourself in debt like Phil did.

im not sure about that anymore.
as the FGC audience grows, it inevitably becomes more casual as well.
you could probably make money based on Cult of Personality or a gimmick instead of pure skill now.
back in the day it was about pure skill because the audience was small and only the hardcore fighting game players cared.
Low Tier God actually had some mild success with this. he was Low Tier God and his fans were the Covenant.
he was just such a shitty person that it didn't stick, his personality ruined his chances of success.
if low tier god was more positive but kept the schtick up, he'd probably make a lot of money based on just his Character that he plays.

 

[PhilsCamelToe]

Way too bitch made to ever show his face to a convention.

He loves to bark on that we are all mentally ill and would never do stuff to his face so I don’t know why he felt the need to put a “The trolls could ruin it” option on the poll.

Phil, if someone is more likely to do something autistic like put their hands on you, it’ll be your own denthead “fans”.

 

[Coke Zero]

Its amazing how many people here couldn't pick up on that. "The show wouldn't work because phil doesn't have anything intelligent to say" or "the show wouldn't work because phil is too socially awkward"... like no shit, thats why it would be funny.

The concept wasn't dsp, wings and boogie have deep intellectual conversations about important news and topics. It was more like just get them together and watch all the retarded things they do and say.

No, the competition at higher levels has become stronger than what it used to be. Casuals will just stay in their slightly above Derich ranks even if there's ten times more of them now. More new blood means more people at the high end of the bell curve as well. There's a lot of factors that go into that but the most important one is that it's much easier to learn how to play a fighting game and it's easier to connect with other players and hone your skills through practice. Even for "solved" games like Super Turbo, if a player who is in the upper-mid level of skill was sent back in time to the late 90s he'd squash Daigo. I also mentioned this in a past post but when I play Third Strike nowadays I see lower-mid skill Uriens do Aegis Reflector setups consistently, which 20 years ago was something only high level players could really do. Same with EVO moment 37, you can see skilled randos on Fightcade do that like it was nothing.

Pros of the yesteryear who didn't evolve, didn't keep training and weren't open to learning new tech and strategies got washed up and left in the dust like how DSP did.

 

[Martys_not_smarty]

Thinking it over a bit more I think Keem should have Derich on his show sort of like when Howard Stern would invite Gary and Wendy the retards on just give them leading questions and they're so retarded they don't see the writing on the wall example:
Hey Derich which actress takes black cocks the best?
*Derich* I like turtles
Hey Derich how much money would it take to have (insert porn actress here) shit on your chest?
*Derich* around the amount I'd give to Phil but not enough that someone can call him out for hitting the tips goal but still asking for help.

It's cause it's his day off and he's watching old videos of his again, trying to relive his glory days.

I've said it before but the fgc of the early 2000's when Piggy was doing his thing can be compared to the early years of the UFC where they changed the rules every other event and it was just a bunch of strip mall sensei's, titty bar bouncers and guys who were in other professional martial sports such as kickboxing or pro wrestling/pancrase. You put Royce Gracie or Ken Shamrock in the octagon against any ranked contender today and they'll look like CM punk getting taken down in forty seconds.

there are real life examples of players in real life sports who became popular due to gimicks instead of pure skill

the harlem globetrotters.

wrestling is based on this premise somewhat.
edit: im not saying you shouldn't have any skill at all. but the personality can become the hook instead of the skill.

Yo! It's a Philganger.

*Edit*
And if Phil does go to a convention, I'm going. I'm there with fucking bells on. I'll bring the whole gay bar that I go to. I'd just follow him around, ominously. I wouldn't say a damn thing, I'd just lurk around him and observe his behaviour.

That woman has some very greasy hair wow
