So much this. Has Wu ever admitted to being mediocre at something?

The only recent self-defecating (heh) humor that I remember from him was that disgusting pic of his ghoul legs wearing two different filthy house slippers, size 16 triple E, and even then: A) The joke Wu made was suggesting the contrast between his awesome life and the silly shoes, "Dress for the job you want" or some such, and B) Wu's socially awkward 'tism prevents him from realizing that showing his disgusting stems wearing these grotty slippers on his filthy floor isn't by any stretch of the imagination FUNNY, it's just vile.

But more to @Francis York Morgan's point, what has Wu claimed to be a master of? Like, not just good, but masterful? By my reckoning:

1. Games programming and creation, specifically Unreal 3
2. Pokemanz
3. Running
4. Knowledge of "EDM" dance music
5. self-enucleation (heh)
6. What am I forgetting? Help me out, Kiwis....

Wu has really pissed off a lot of people:

What are the odds that this drop is due to the "publicity" increase because of the (supposedly) impeding release of Rev60? I mean people who had pledged a couple of bucks and then promptly forgot about it, and just got reminded so they cancelled that shit. It's not hard to miss a couple of dollars a month, especially if they are donating to more than one person on Patreon. Presumably they'd expect a monthly deduction to Patreon, but forgot that part of that was supporting Wu specifically.

I know Wu's been threatening to release it for years now, but there's been more activity recently in channels other than her usual twitter hugbox. She finally did a Kickstarter update which would have sent out a notification to backers, and there was that "news" story about her going back to "one of her best selling games"

You'd think that after months of bleeding hundreds of dollars from her "fun time" fund that she would eventually learn to shut the fuck up, right? Most kids start getting the message when you start going after stuff like their allowance but Wu has repeatedly demonstrated that she's not as clever as most kids.

It's likely that Wu actually makes money when her Patreon goes down. Most of the drops are probably sock accounts she forgot to maintain, so when they go stale that's less PayPal and Patreon fees she pays.

Agreed, assuming there is a service out there that provides a horde of fake bots, it might be that her ups and downs solely come from these sock puppets in the first place. Just assume that for some it takes a day or two to register that the payment arrived, and you get such drops that fill back up a day later.
 
We are almost at 100 pages and it's only been a couple of weeks since the counter went back to zero. With the game being "released" next week, and considering all the sperging, counter-sperging, mansplaining, transplaing, and gamergating that will no doubt bring, I predict that we will (conservatively) be somewhere in the 200 - 250 range by the end of September.

It's month end so all those accounts that NSF'd or canceled come off then.

I'd expect an upsurge as Johnny pads his numbers again. But maybe not, Patron support isn't the status symbol it was last year and Johhny sure doesn't need it to "work".
 
Didn't he used to be one of the highest paid e beggars with like 12k a month?
