My hours have changed a lot in the last few months and time is precious but this arc is honestly the worst in all his arcs. Every stream is literally the following; turbo begging for goal in pre stream, the detractors and autism schedule whilst trying to appeal to Ashton. He still does not understand the Kino appearences are done now, it was apparent during the election stream because no one interacted with him and Ashton looked done 5 minutes in. He wrecked the flow of that stream I just skipped the time he was on because it was so awkward.

It's sad to see a lot of the good detractors go tbh, I love listening to Meerkat on shift and Anl33, PoP usually are streaming on my commute but all 3 are far less engaged and have life. Phil does not realize though that as soon as there is a mass exodus of detractors his lifestyle is on a countdown as they maintain his relevancy. I can see Alt exitting soon too honestly because the prestreams are the only good thing but are the worst. He needs to watch his own audience too because its gone down a couple of hundred the past 2 months.

It kinda feels like the ride is essentially over at this point, the KC grab was a dying breath and held for a month but is now gone. I knew he would try and exit gaming but I am actually surprised at the pace because he barely games now really even TIHYDP are few now. He is going to go the way of Mersh or Ralph and just have a very small platform of 50 views, a few restreamers and that is it.
 
TBS was great. I was both stunned and dying with laughter that Phillip didn’t see the joke in the Will Ferrell commercial. All this time we’ve laughed at him for it and he still can’t tell what’s a joke. There’s been zero cognitive development. No wonder he blows all his money, he probably believes every word of commercials and believes when they say buying the latest $2,000 phone makes you the coolest guy on the planet.

I don’t have strong feelings either way but it’s surely a notch for the ‘Phillip has autism’ camp.
he's a narc. no one is funnier than the clown that knows nothing about comedy.
I did not see this posted yet so...

Remember all those fuckin years DSP preaching about "donating should be private" bullshit? Well, fuck that I guess. Now he brags how he donated to help other people prove a point / so he doesnt look like a massive hypocrite faggot.

he'll do a chargeback. :story:
He was doing Flintstones vitamines, the good shit, Fred AND Barney, the kind of shit that makes you see Pterosaurs flying around.
lol. this was exactly my first thought too.

I noticed the DDM viewership was way down as well. Generally I try not to be a parade pisser, but it's become a mechanical game of DSP does the thing and Tractor references the corresponding meme. That's not golddust. It reminds me of Pee-Wee's Playhouse where when someone says the secret word of the day you have to "SCREAM.. REAL.. LOUD!" Someone is going to need to restream the restreamer soon to maintain entertainment value.

Hasn't all the DDM viewership just gone to TBS/WPIG and people who are making fun of Phil live, rather than just people in chat doing it? I keep reading about detractors declining and Phil keeps saying it, but most of these channels didn't exist a few years ago and still have way more viewers than Phil does. Even if Phil himself has gotten stale and boring in the past month, since the interviews and KC appearances have ended, I'm not seeing this "end of the detractors" that Phil loves to claim is happening.

Maybe for the pre-stream, but part of the fun (AHAHAHHHH!) of DDM was spamming "lols" and trombone fail SFX emojis when he died like a scrub during gameplay. I haven't checked lately but I don't think the viewer count picks up for gameplay.

Autists generally go the other way, refusing to believe any marketing.
 
Here’s a whitepill for yall: there’s a concept in poker when calculating the cost-benefit analysis to staying in hands called pot odds and implied odds. Put in simple terms, the rule of 4 states that on the flop, you must take the amount of cards remaining that could help make your hand a winning one and multiply it by 4, with that number being considered your hands percent chance of winning. If that percent ratio is better than the amount of chip investment needed to potentially win the total amount in the pot, you should stay in the hand, mathematically speaking.

Implied odds is the same equation, however it also considers the potential gain of your opponent putting in more money to the pot in the future. When trying to calculate investments in something, or how likely some chain of events is to occur, people almost always think in terms of pot odds rather than implied odds. This is all to say, when thinking about Phil, I know for a fact that who he is makes it almost impossible to predict what sorts of large scale blunders or hijinks he will get into in the future. Who could have predicted the Sidescrollers fallout? Or the KC arc? The gain could be FAR larger than you may assume it to be working off the information we currently have.

I’m sure people were saying the exact same thing about Phil years ago, and yet some of the arcs in the last year have been incredibly interesting and entertaining. My niggas, imagine what kind of content we get if Kat happens to leave? Know your opponent, don’t forget your implied odds. Because my chips are in on Phil continuing to fuck up and make me laugh.
 
He is going on some insane tirade about the video game awards, this happens every year for some reason, every gamer knows that the VGAs is just some fake and gay bullshit for journos to jack themselves off, only Phail has been slow on the uptake on something everyone figured out a decade ago and takes it as seriously as he does.

I'm here for the horse divorce arc. Unfortunately Phil targets autistic people. Not just autistic people but suggestable ones he can manipulate. The same is true with khet. If you pay any attention to her behavior in the excerpts of her online, Shes socially awkward and dethatched. Right up Phils alley. I doubt she has the faculties to leave him which is why he fucking kidnapped her and Stockholms her every day by talking too her like a puppy. "Its ok honey." "You don't have to be here if you don't want honey, its ok". "What do you want to do honey, its ok". You know, talking to her like Shes a toddler. Obviously its indicative of her mental fortitude. Anyways...hopes are high *Beg* *Prayerhands* *Double Prayerhands* *sneak-snort followed by light beg*

She's never going to leave unless he has absolute financial destruction. But even if she does, I do not think it will be like the pandalee leaving arc at all. When that happened he still had a huge amount of "real" fans around and the entire tumbleweed forums. He doesn't have any of that anymore. So while he may be dramatic I don't think there will be anything that will come from it.

You have to really objectively look at how sizable he was and how many "real" fans he had when Pandalee left. There's a night and day difference between then and now, he really doesn't have any "fans" left besides like 6 people in chat. The Derish is even gone lol.
