I'm crashing the fuck out, man.

I don't know what the wiggers are doing. Normally I'd be optimistic (maybe they're just letting them leave for Thanksgiving!) but I think it's kind of clear that's not what's happening, especially if Mizzy's been able to have a live stream with some of the contestants.

The bulk of the content over the past few days has largely driven by or at least propelled by new fish. Burt is experiencing diminishing returns, Payton has done fuck all, and Binx is content, sure, but she's been annoying beyond the scope of the show for the most part. I'm fine with not liking people: I hated Slimeball, I was growing to loathe Kawan, but they were filling villain spaces. I had fun hating them. I demand more from Binx as a viewer because she's been here the longest and she was never explicitly in a villainous role; Sam said to prove she's more than a thot and she failed spectacularly. Which I could deal with as long as the other fish were around to keep her on her toes or act as a counter to her.

I don't know how to fucking explain this.

You don't just introduce a new cast of characters, settle them in beyond guest star roles, and then pull them out. I gave a fuck about Star, I gave a fuck about Turbo, I gave a fuck about Tony and Kawan and Lily, all for vastly different reasons. They had personalities to them and as someone who enjoyed Famous House 1.0, this was me getting to experience that feeling again: getting to know these fucks and anticipating their reactions to shit going off the rails.

Now I've been rug-pulled and I hate it.

Just pulling them aside and saying sayanora is fucking bullshit, man. The other contestants had some form of stressor before they left but this is fucked. I kept reading through the pages hoping they would not be dropping them like flies but one by one, every fucking contestant got a non-exit minus Kawan who really deserved to fucking stay after his performance, fuck whatever their plan was. He barricaded himself in the fucking penthouse to avoid the chaos emerald. Come the fuck on.

I don't care about Frank coming back to hassle Binx or Payton. I don't care about Burt. I'd rather see Kawan and Tony hassled. I'd rather see Star milling about with a burnt baby doll and workout every morning. I'd rather watch Lily try and spread more herpes. I'd rather see Turbo's brand of non-content because seeing her sat down with an octopus on her head is new and fresher than Payton doing nothing. I'd rather watch Kevin wander around looking judgemental and bored out of his fucking mind.

I don't care about the old contestants because in a house of new faces, they failed to engage me. And now they're just handed a sense of security and a Fish Tank they're already prepared for and prepped for a victory they don't fucking deserve? Fuck that shit, man. Fuck that shit.

Now Jobe's gone, Fatty stays, and Luke's been demoted to freeloader? And I'm supposed to be excited about the next however many fucking days of Binx and Payton being smug and Burt still being fucking confused.

This is so fucked.

I don't know who this is. I'm assuming it's Luke because he's been couching since he arrived but they keep eating and the crinkle nonsense has been giving me a bit of a chuckle while writing this up.

It's burt, he's sneak eating krispy treats under a blanket when he wakes up from his little naps. Bizarre ass shit.

I've recorded a lot, but I'll need time to edit out me being a tard and accidentally opening windows over my screen recordings lol. It looks like I got close to 300GB. I am trying to stick with it through the end but I'd like to play some video games over the break and I don't really care if Binx, Payton or Burt wins. Maybe if they take them outside, which I think might be possible. They seemed VERY intent on making sure Burt has 2 weeks of medicine, so maybe we let them cook. I know Frank is supposed to come back to the area early next week. Who knows what could happen. Smugtank isn't fun though, even with The Unfuckable Persian, Simbal, Sicilian, Ling Ling, etc., at least they provided content. Binx and Payton do NOTHING. Burt has become increasingly confused with time and requires prompting, like a Fishtank CWC getting prompted by Idea Guys. That's not interesting for me (not knocking those of you who enjoy it, just not my thing.)
 
I believe this is not correct. Peyote said to Kawal earlier today "at least you guys get a daily rate, we do not". I take this to mean only a few of the fish (like cymbalta) actually got a daily payment.
There were a few instances of production jumping in at conversations early on in the show and telling people to not discuss payments, contracts and that kind of shit specifically because of this.

And tbh its kinda shitty of production to not give everyone some bare minimum of payment considering the amount of money they get from the show - this is probably the exact reason that Shinji was particularly upset in S2 and said he doesn't do "charity work".
I am farily certain from all the fish who have left the show that they were paid out a daily rate and that Payton is just retarded. (Or had a different contract)

They all mention getting paid more than what they made in fishbucks, plus it was talked about during the show about them getting paid a weekly/daily stipend for being on there. Mizzy said she made 12-14k from being on the show.

Luke also mentioned in his first live after being kicked from Famous House that he would be willing to come back but would probably ask for a higher rate.

Not to dismiss the rest of your post but that's Burt. Luke claimed the Penthouse, production gave Burt his schizo board back to take back the penthouse. Burt tried a hostile gay takeover of the penthouse and almost succeeded, but then King Luke manhandled Burt out in his classic fashion and banished Burt to the Den of Flames.
 
Does that mean people will not bother as much next season if the outcome is egregiously retarded? quite possibly. This especially includes the more mainstream kind of audience who have put a significant time investment in following the show and possibly also spending money on things. If people spent money to support some particular contestant and then the results get fucked with, why would you ever spend money on it again?
No one would be upset at the wiggers making Luke a fish, no one would ever stop watching the show because of that except for the backwash of the bottle containing the audience. Luke is literally the most popular person in the tank.

And this mythical "mainstream audience" you speak of is the last thing that the wiggers should be catering the show for because it would ruin everything. That "mainstream audience" can just go watch Big Brother since that's literally Fishtank for a mainstream audience. Not sure why there's some people here who even want Fishtank to be more "mainstream" since the mainstream kind of audience would want this very website shut down for "transphobia" and bullying.
 
Doesn't that go both ways? Money spent can be for negative or positive reasons. Why spend money degrading a fish if they're just going to filter it or keep TTS off altogether? That messes with the results. Yet it never slows down.

I think most people would keep spending because they just like the interaction and aren't thinking about "will this help my fish win later?"
Yes and no.

When you do/pay for a TTS it is fairly instantaneous - you are going to know whether it is approved or rejected within like 2-3 minutes (I don't know how long it actually takes). Then you hear it live (also presumably within just a few minutes). Even if your TTS gets rejected you immediately get refunded.

If you're spending for TTS and fishtoys across the entire season and lets say you spend $50 (not an outrageous sum) and you're supporting one particular contestant - then at the last second the wiggers swoop in and go "nah nigga we be frontin' and shit" and little wigger-Jet jumps in the air and clicks his Balenciaga heels together and chooses some totally faggot/unfair option that fucks over the contestant someone was supporting for the past 6 weeks. You'd be pretty pissed.

The exact same applies even if you didn't spend a single cent but you were watching a few hours a day and making tweets about the show. If your tweets even got moderate traction and had more people turn up and spend money or raise more attention to the show, and then production does some wigger ass shit to piss you off, you're probably not going to prioritize watching the next season.

In any case, I don't think that will happen, production would be really stupid to try and do something too jarring. Jet indicated they have "something planned" for the finale that will be challenging + fair and that's really the best way to deal with it. And even if the results of the finale aren't what production expects they can still offer consolation prizes or at least do something to make sure that the most hardcore fish get some sort of acknowledgement (they've been pretty good at that for the most part anyway by retweetering people after they leave the show and shit like that).

I think as long as the "faggot/unfair" option is well liked I really don't think the FT fanbase minds.

People will still spend money. The world still turns. The paypiggies thrive on that parasocial relationship with the cast.

*Edit* Honestly the paypiggy toys have been a lot slower now anyways. The original "totally fair, non-faggot" cast has been receiving a lot less toys/roses/other shit (except Burt, he still gets lots of attention). Make Luke a contender and have him do based shit, the crowd will love it and spend money.

Thanks to everyone's directions, I've found Luke.

Fishtank is an amazing show actually. I was wrong. I'd like to make a write-up about exactly how I've come to understand production's genius in the last few minutes and go into austistic detail about everywhere I've gone wrong. My prior opinion needs to be erased from the internet and I hope I can replace it in all your minds with this once, as it is a better and more accurate depiction of what Fishtank truly is and all the wonders it carries. Production is amazing and can do no wrong. Season 3 is the best season and will continue to be the best season and I'm here to explain to you why.

Lumpy head Aryan prince sleep, I simp.

When you blindly simp, you ignore and forget everything else. You zero in on one thing and one thing only: shallow and primal thought processes that tell you human look good, could make good mate. I would like to marry this man and thus Fishtank is a good show. I think Luke is attractive and thus Fishtank is a good show. Here he is providing no content, not even arguable because he's literally fucking asleep, but he breathes and I think he is cute and so I am satisfied; suddenly this is now content. Fishtank is an amazing show.

I love Fishtank.

I see Luke is now a freeloader. I guess it's up to Burt to win this in the name of content.
Option A: Schizophrenic Negro Homosexual Escort who dreams about being a mass rapist & Paedophile, Option B: Manipulative 32 Year Old Blue Haired pro-abortion Libtard Hag who lied about not sleeping with Black Men & Actively defended a Paedophile & Option C: Nontent 19 Year Old Libtard Model who Actively Defended a paedophile and endorsed Child Drag shows & will probably donate a portion of the money to groomers to spite Production & the Audience

I agree with you on both things.

Luke can easily be a fish, but they can't just nig the results to force him as the winner in some super obvious way - if they do that then they're retarded. I mean to begin with it is only because they're retarded that he left and rejoined so early on, so Luke being in "fish" purgatory/existential crisis is purely on them to begin with. They're also the ones that re-introduced him among like 20 other new people which also fucked up the show a bit (IMHO).

And yeah, I totally agree the mainstream audience would suck shit and ruin everything that makes Fishtank special. When you attract large crowds they ruin fucking everything (look at the internet, look at your favorite fishing spot, look at tourism, look at everything)
But when it comes to money and viewercounts, I don't really think they've managed to make huge sums or gained huge viewership this season. Putting on Fishtank as it is, is a huge financial risk because of how volatile the contestants are - imagine you have someone like Burt or Jeff and they actually stab someone and you have to shut down the entire thing like a week into starting? If that kind of shit happens they will also be purged of any sponsors pretty rapidly.

The problem or I guess situation is that both Jet and Sam Hyde obviously want to turn this into a sort of media empire - probably not quite on the level of MrBeast (but Jet obviously have huge ambitions with a pirate ship or space ship season). I think the peak viewership I saw this season was about 15k viewers and I do not think that is enough to get the kind of income they want and need to make this thing scalable and feasible to continuously run on a long term basis.
I don't really want a mainstream audience but that is what the Wiggers are trying to court and I am sure they are aware that it will kill anything magical about the show and just turn it into a generic off-brand Big Brother when they do so. They very much need and want legit investors and sponsors and they're not going to get too much of that with 15k viewers unfortunately.

A lot of people in this thread seem to be gobsmacked about how much money they must be churning, but even if they make $3-500k in profit (after tax), or even a clean million dollars from this season, that really is not a large amount of money that they can use to make a bigger/better next season.

Yeah I mean ideally nobody wins. That won't happen so I have to go with who gave me the best laughs while "acting". I don't like any of the fish as "people".

I'll give it to burt, mostly because he's made the most content this season, in my opinion he earned it.

I'd give it to Burt also on account of him having achieved the most shit in his life. Degenerate "daddy burt" or not they guy supposedly has some degrees and has aspirations and goals (even if they have ventured into becoming a gay pornstar in the past few years for some unknown reason). Burt also clearly was put under the most stress compared to anyone else, by fucking miles (its not his problem he has the unfair advantage of just being able to self-wipe his fucking memory lol).

When you stack him up like that compared the other options I really don't understand what aspirations the rest of them even have in life besides literally just "being famous". What bill Binx do? Buy a new gayming PC and wireless dildo and stream faggy games for a year before having to tap out due to age?

Anyway, the final options sure are some strange ones, but that is what the show has as contestants so it shouldn't be particularly surprising.

Burt has stated multiple times he'll just give the money to other fish and share it. Even if this stayed within the bounds of the OG fish, fuck that noise. I don't want Slimeball to get a fucking sliver of this considering how much he fucked off the very day he left the show, Payton and Binx would end up wining by proxy which is dumb, and Mizzy has already won since her elimination and doesn't deserve Burt's sloppy seconds.

I don't even want to think about a portion of the cash going towards fucking Alex B, who Burt is still soft (hard?) for.

If I could guarantee Burt was lying his ass off and would be keeping the money to himself, sure because that would be a hilarious heel turn. But he seems like he'd genuinely go around trying to hand money over to these people and if he didn't, it's likely he'd get manipulated by sob stories from some of the worst cast members this season for the cash.
 
Discussing "mainsteam" Fish Tank is a totally different thing because that's a Fish Tank that I won't be watching. So I guess I don't really care to ponder on about it because if it happens....I won't be there.
I think it depends on how much control Sam has over the product. If Jet is the big boss it's fucked the second it becomes mainstream but if Sam is the big boss I doubt it would change, he didn't change WP for Adult Swim/Turner I don't think he'd change Fishtank unless someone bought it out, in that case I think he'd just start over under a new brand name doing the same shit, hopefully with someone far more competent than Jet.
