I must be missing some lore so hopefully someone can help me out with this, when did Phil kill off The Week in Preview?

At the same point he finally started uploading videos longer than 10-15 minutes--when the ground fell out from beneath him and it was way too fucking late.
I leave ya'll some gems from 1st stream 28,July 2018:View attachment 506156
If he would just be able to sell the shitty condo, this might help instantly.
But he tried to sell it one time, didn't work, fuck it, next house. You don't just try one or two times and forget this thing over the next years. I highly doubt he's still actively trying to get rid of these infested rooms.
Serious question. I'm not very familiar with the American way of renting condos or Phil's situation. Is there a big pile of money he still has to pay or is it just the usual monthly lease costs (lease rental charges? English, difficult sometimes)? If it's just the monthly costs couldn't he just ask to get the contract killed? I mean, if I would want to relocate my home (rented apartment) I just need to say: "Can we kill the contract on [date], I wanna move". I'm not obliged to find a new tenant, it's the job of the landlords.
So what's the big difference here?
I feel kind of bad for Crimson King, putting all that work into the puppet right before DSP crashes and burns and disappears forever.Double Edit: Jesus Christ el Crimson King fucking wins-- https://twitter.com/elCrimsonKING/status/1023071322656538624
I don't know if it's different in Europe or wherever you're at, but a "condo" is a little bit different from an "apartment". Phil owns his actual unit, but there are shared spaces (parking lots, maybe a pool or club house) owned by the Condo Association, to which Phil pays dues monthly (these can be high for gated communities with a lot of landscaping or 'shared' buildings, but I think the CT Condo is just a parking lot to get plowed and someone to come mow the lawn once a week). Phil may also be on the hook for levies like repaving, repairing hallways/elevators/roofing, etc.
Since Phil is the landlord, and since his mortgage (which he's surely paying the bare minimum on) has more debt on it than the actual value of the condo unit, he's actually in a rough spot. Not that I have any sympathy for him. But he can't just abandon it since the mortgage holder can sue for the difference, and he can't do a short sale or a sale below mortgage value because the remaining balance of the mortgage (probably 25-30k still) becomes due immediately.
You know what's not underwater? His Renton mortgage. In fact, he could probably sell that and easily cover his moving expenses, most pressing Credit Card debt, and the Q1 and Q2 Federal taxes that a lot of us have assumed he's been ignoring. Going from 100k to 60k in income gets a lot more palatable when you go from 100k to 60k in expenses, fatty.
It worked for Patreon as well.Looks like Phil's REEEEEEEEEEEEEPAYME video brought out enough dumbasses to hit the 475 sub mark (with the help of 6 gifted subs). Here's the names for today--only a couple look suspect
It worked for Patreon as well.
Two of those $5 pledges were removed as well so I assume they were one-time. That's $326 more than normal coming into DSP's pocket August 1st unless those people remove their pledges intending to only give him that money one time. That person pledging $100 is in for a rude awakening Wednesday if they don't know that'll get charged to their account a second time.
- 1 new $100 pledge
- 1 new $10 pledge
- 10 new $5 pledges
- 8 new $1 pledges
Compare that single day to the previous two week period:
- 2 new $1 pledges
- 2 pledges dropped by $50
- 1 lost $10 pledge
- 3 lost $5 pledges
- 3 lost $1 pledges
So what's his current Patreon status? If the month ended tonight, how much would he get?
873 is the current amount.
He actually realized that the WiP was completely pointless because he already outlines what he is going to do in his tweets every week and he already sits for an hour and a half talking before every single stream.Thanks, i saw that there wasn't a WiP & wondered if Phil announced it's death or if it's just presumed dead.
The value of the condo is constantly going down as it has not been lived in for a few years and I doubt anybody is checking on it regularly. There could be a mouse or roach infestation in there and he wouldn't know. No way that thing is even close in value to what he owes.I cant imagine the condition of that house, if he did decide to sell the realtor is going to hit him with repair and clean up costs... he recently used that very same excuse as to why he cant sell, but I honestly believe he wont have a choice real soon.
he was over 500 at a couple points this year477 subs on twitch (record?)
$873 on patreon.
He's due to get a final paycheck from Curse in August so it's hard to judge everything until the financials are down to purely just twitch and patreon support.
At one point he had 559he was over 500 at a couple points this year

Prolly for the same reason he couldn't figure out how to crouch jump in Half-life 1 after 20 minutes until his chat told him how.A condo is basically a home. So Phil would pay a payment up front and then pay off the "house" monthly. Some Condo's also have a monthly payment for upkeep. In Phil's case, someone mows his lawn so he would pay for that. An apartment in america is different. An apartment has a contract so you agree to pay 1500 dollars a month for 6 months. Only way phil can get rid of his condos is by selling them or paying them off. It is unclear why he never sold the condo in CT when he moved. Most americans sell their current house before moving.
