🐟 Fishtank Sam Hyde's Fishtank.live General - Jet Neptune's Little House of Horrors

[Da R00D D00D]

Vance came in to drop off pizza rolls. Sam admits to cole that he gets the most gifts and has the most endorsements out of all the fish stating "the fans hate everyone else".

If you don't bring back my Bitch, JC, then you must bring me an XBOX.

 

[Rome Is Burning]

Xbox was a genius idea, imo. It’s going to encourage seething and scheming from the other fish. As long as Cole doesn’t puss out and actually leave. I don’t know if he’s being serious about leaving or just doing a bit to help push his stocks even higher

 

[WelfareNiggerQueen]

What's the point of keeping him here if he just plays video games for the rest of the show?

Make Brian seethe

 

[Blindeye]

I also keep forgetting TJ exists because he's so boring. What's his money situation?

He said he was working in a flour mill filling bags, sounds like factory labor type work. He said he wants to win the money so he doesn't have to work those kinds of jobs anymore, I think he mentioned retail at one point too, possibly something he did in the past.

 

[JamusActimus]

Cole should have paid for the xbox in chips

 

[Da R00D D00D]

Karate time. Jet tells Cole to bring the xbox down so the other fish don't mess with it. "I don't want any of those poor faggots breaking my xbox"

Edit: After many of the fish put on their karate gear, Sam tells everyone but Cole and Shinji to take their stuff off. "Cole's mom paid for private lessons with sensei". Shinji was playing xbox with Cole which is why he's singled out.

 

[Steinercard]

This is what every sam hyde dickrider dreams of and Cole acts like it's nothing. They're currently deathmatching each other, Cole might not know it now but this will be what decides if he stays or is eliminated. As the saying goes, if you swing at the judge, you better not miss.

Cole is engaging in a time honoured tradition. Back in the day real men settled their differences via all BR SWAT.

 

[Mr. Manchester]

"TJ tell everyone not to put their karate uniform on, Cole's mom paid for a private lesson"

hahahahaha

 

[Kane lives in death]

I hope Cole starts demanding more unreasonable shit.
He must realize he has production by the balls, after this xbox shit i believe they are losing control of the tank.
A fucking xbox lmao.

 

[Da R00D D00D]

TJ, bored as can be, walks in to watch the karate lesson. Sensei says it's up to Cole if he can watch, when Cole approves Sensei says he has to sit in the cuck chair.

 

[Raw Onion Enjoyer]

While Shinji and Cole are training downstairs, Trish has cut all of Cole's clothes with scissors. Then took some ball (?) from his closet with her.

After this Brian came and took his good clothes from top of the closet to B3. On his left.

 

[Steinercard]

I got to give mad props to Sam for turning this around. Turning a potential show ruiner into more content. Get everyone even more resentful of Cole, make Cole feel good and feel like he has control whilst really Sam Hyde just manipulated him into making more content instead of leaving. I'm impressed for real.

Edit: I take it all back. Jet and Sam are retards. Cole has left. Mission failed.

 

[Enig]

Is it me or even this place becoming overran with genuine parasocial stupidity this season, if anything on the level of the retardation of today occured half a year ago you'd have people here openly asking what the fuck is going on instead of becoming just as retardedly symapthetic as the season pass paypigs on the site itself. Like yeah I get people want factions, but this is just a cartoonish distortion of the already cartoonish autism that was Jontent. Hell, when you stop and think about it the Halo thing is just another callback to that book from S1, everything about this feels like WWE level damage control.

 

[attractive_pneumonia]

everything about this feels like WWE level damage control.

Because it is, the show was always billed as an unscripted reality TV show but that was never the case, they always brought in people to fuck with the status quo, Airsoft Fatty and Frank Hassle being two major points. The addition of Simon was just a pivot when Simmons turned out to be a pedo, hell Josie even started laughing when Simon was first introduced because as she said "A bunch of the stuff about him was basically the same as the guy that just left." The show always had damage control and twisting of content, its just there is a bit of rose tinted glasses for the first series because fish like Letty ended up having insanely strong villain arcs once the entire house started trying to fuck with her.

 

[Noble Redditor]

damage control.

Fishtank has been doing damage control from the very first second of season 1. It probably always will be.

I'd say it's less parasocial than season 1 since it's more blatantly fake and there's constant interference from production. There has been a lot less parasocial TTS and most of it seems to come from Jet, probably in an attempt to drum it up. People would send conversational TTS in season 1, not so much season 2.

You have people still being parasocial with Josie, Letty, Vance, Jon, and even Sylvia. It's baffling.

 

[laoyang]

A certain level of damage control and jankiness adds to the charm imo. I don't think there's a single piece of content MDE has ever produced that doesn't have a certain level of jank, but this season so far is less jank and more "Jet is fumbling the ball like he did the edited show and is drowning to death from his own incompetence, and dragging the show down with him".

 

[Lowercase I internet]

I understand why some people might be upset, but this is the formation of a new narrative. This has been being built up since yesterday when Sam got everyone to gang up on Cole. This planted seeds of hatred between the fish and Cole. Sam giving Cole an xbox and treating him as an obvious favorite is the entire point. It creates a Cole vs the house narrative and causes friction that is needed.

You can call it coddling, but it is so obviously coddling that it plays into a bigger arc that production, or at least Sam, is clearly trying to create. Class warfare. Rich kid Cole vs the rest of the house.

Even if this was done as a way to keep Cole on you have to admit it was a smart play. They've basically taken "coddling" and made it an obvious part of this new arc instead of trying to subtly pull it off. Cole is the "rich kid" and Sam wants everyone in the house to know that and hate him for it.

I truly hope this lights a fire under the other fish's asses and gets them to make moves against Cole more as a team. I would like that very much.

This is likely due to a selection bias from the fan bottleneck from S1 to S2.

Risking puzzle pieces here but a good geeky e.g. of this is Gintama's latter seasons appearing four (!) times in the MyAnimeList top ten. Lukewarm fans get filtered by the first season (majority filler) and the remainder goes rabid for the latter seasons' plot arcs.
