Phil theorized that he is getting lots of tips today because it is almost the weekend and people are now starting to contribute to help out.

Reminder: It was a week ago that Phil insisted he didn't pay attention to contributions.

Superblindman is also desperately trying to start a cheer war again...

I'm surprised Phil didn't accuse Superblindman of being deaf instead of blind, since anyone who has listened to him at all would know that cheers are useless to him right now and are only going to distract from the needed tips. Yet curiously, Phil was quite excited by the cheer war. Hm.

Acts like it is "yeah, what ever!"

Phil: It is not a impress oinog_boingo_ stream!

Yet he have no problem to brag about reaching top 5, 3 or 2 several times over!

Edit:
Wins the match and immediatly starts singing and dancing about how he won and then talk about that is how you win matches.
Strange that he have only like 1-2 wins then...

Edit2:
Have the taxes information on his phone, but might be able tell everyone about it tomorrow and he will have a tip goal up on his saturday stream!

Okay, time for a nitpicky rant.

I downloaded his latest Blackgout gameplay to check up on how many tips were thrown his way today by people with physical and/or mental issues, so I came across his extremely cringy victory dance at the very end of the video. In just couple of sentences, DSP shows perfectly how disconnected from and uninformed about "being a streamer" he actually is. I'll probably point out some obvious shit we've known for years already, but I just have to get this out of my system.

















"Why play again when I just got a victory?"
This really shows what his mindset is in regards to streaming/interesting gameplay/playthroughs. He basically just revealed he has no intention of making sure his audience is entertained at all times by his gameplay. He's not looking to rise above other players when it comes down to tactics and gunplay that take actual skill or to rise above other streamers by delivering in-depth commentary about the game or other topics.
Other, more engaged streamers would state the exact opposite, such as "Let's play another match!" Why? Because they have so many other "cards" in their deck to play that make their stream worth watching, other than being boring and cringy, but bringing nothing else to the table.

So yeah, why play again, DSP? Good question, man, because I don't know. And it seems like you don't know either.

Funnily enough, in an attempt to boost his already inflated ego even more, MasterSaru points out to DSP that this was his 6th Blackgout win in total, to which DSP reacts with "That's cool!
701591
".
Though, when you take his Blackgout playlist, the 52 videos amount to 47.5 hours of him playing the game, which comes down to one victory every 8 hours on average. So, by his own definition of reasons to play, 99% of his Blackgout streams are basically useless gameplay-wise because it's only the victory that counts.

"A resounding victory by playing it the way everyone tells me not to play it, yet I still fucking win when I do. Right?"
Right.

Well, no, not exactly. Because... you win by simply getting lucky. Your Blackgout "victories" come down to getting as lucky as someone who's streaming himself playing roulette where he constantly bets on the same number, and where it takes about 8 hours to get one win. And watching someone playing roulette like that vs. watching DSP playing Blackgout is about equally entertaining gameplay-wise (read: boring as fuck). But luckily you just revealed to everyone that the journey towards the goal doesn't matter in the slightest, that entertaining your audience by offereing riveting gameplay is of no importance whatsoever, so I guess you've accomplished your goal there.

In the end, it's an extremely self-centered way of conducting yourself: "I win, so the thing I'm doing is a success, regardless of people being entertained during the whole lead-up to said win or not".

No wonder it's mostly exceptional people giving him money while he's doing this shit.

You would think that people would wise up and stream snipe Phil just to make him knock it off. He's never get off the pot unless people press him and make him realize he's not fun to play with or entertaining to watch.

It's really a microcosm for his entire "business." Everybody tells me not to play this way but it doesn't matter because I still win. Just like everybody tells me my kwality khantent is crap but it doesn't matter because I still get money. Even the spacing out of the wins fit into it. Some games he'll place high, some he'll place low, but eventually he'll win. Some days are "slow." some days are acceptable, but it all works out when that whale shows up.

I seriously don't get him in this regard.
Nowadays, it is really easy to get games early even if you're not a YTer/streamer or reviewer.
Just go to a retailer and 9 times out of 10 they will sell you the game 1-2 days before release.
Hell, even if you're one of the "digital-only" kind of guy. Just buy the game in the Australian psn store and play it at least 16 hours earlier than in the US.

And even if he doesn't want to take these extra steps, Just play the game on Midnight-release.
Really don't understand why he won't just stream Friday night for such a big release.

If long time supporter, chat mod and willing co-op partner LordLamb's silently leaving the Apex party during the stream due to D$P's overly passive play style did nothing to make him realize he's neither fun to watch nor play with, I doubt anything will. D$P merely shrugged his shoulders and upon bringing in new folks admonished them that he prefers a more laid back playstyle commenting that Lamb played too aggressively.

I voted ¥3000+ on the pol. However, if possible I would vote for: There is no goal, he just expects infinite donations if he sets none. And £3000+ is the closest to infinite.

Laidback playstyle
Playing a Battle Royale Game.

Phil should really be playing Bejewelled or Peggle to get that "chill gameplay" and "chat interaction" that he wants. The successful Battle Royale streamers are balls to the wall - rambo playstyles that they are able to achieve because they are generally good at games, while Phil is not. This man puts zero effort into FPS games, the only thing he tries a moderate amount is Street Fighter because of Muh Legacy, and you can tell he actually tries because he gets so salty.

Have there been any instances of people trying to go to Phil's current address to attempt to troll him? Cause I was just thinking that his address is known and he's announced that he's going to be conveniently out of state for a few days. Then we know there are some people that go to extreme lengths to try and mess with him. Put those together and, possible detractor break-in saga when he gets back?

DSP about the amount he has to pay for taxes just now in pre-stream: "It's not as bad as I thought, but it's not good either."

-edit- According to DSP, he still owes $17,161, even with what he got from emerald_seven. Has to pay his "tahx guy" $1,000 as well (not sure if that's included in the mentioned $17K).

-edit2- Goes off on TheNewFaceofCreation for asking about emerald_seven.

-edit3- The CT visit "will be in the 2nd week of April" and "will likely be a 5-day visit", "right after his birthday".

-edit4- Goes on a rant again about trolls making up stuff about him and Khet going to Disneyland blowing all the money that was raised, instead of visiting his parents.

That would be stupid. It would instantly give him the victim status he claims all the time and confirm everything he said about people fucking with him no matter what.

I'm pretty sure the chest-high wall around his gated community will protect the Wakhondo during the absence of the gout-lord.
