DarksydePhil / TheyCallMeDSP / Phil Burnell - General Discussion

[Martys_not_smarty]

League of Legends? Yes and fuck yes but the game is Stasi run when it comes to in match harassment so you'd have some pretty dedicated people to pull it off.

 

[Abby]

Forgive my lateness or lack of grasping what's going on here but is fatfuck failure phil currently or has been propositioned to play League of Legends for a bounty? If so bwahahah deard lord that would be as rich as him trying to play world of tank still kinda sad that never panned out.

No, I derailed things by linking a clip of a Twitch streamer showing the amount of money one gets from bounties. One of those bounties was to play League for an hour, which would pay $8000+. Others have said DSP isn't a part of the bounty program so it's irrelevant.

 

[actually]

• he didn't stream for an entire week, which in DSP's case is a substantial amount of money not received
• he had a relatively bad month following the CT trip, financially speaking (subs are down, tips were down, Patreon is on a steady decline)

Despite what Phil has to say, that week was somewhat made up for by his begathon immediately prior to and the vacation "explanation" on the 14th after he returned. Given that we know only about $1000 (based on Phil's assessment, anyway) of the $2500 he received in tips went to the taxes, most of the money from his April 5th begathon can be counted as normal income. I'm still tallying tips, but all signs point to a pretty standard month on Twitch (~$6200-6400) with about half of that coming via tips.

Add in the $3800 he got from Twitch's double payment, and he should actually be doing alright. As noted over and over, though, he's just shit with money.

So listening to Phil talking about meme's yesterday, it's pretty clear that he hates all of them, probably since they dreg up his past constantly and I'm convinced that he thinks past Phil is actually a completely different person from present Phil. He also seems to think they work the opposite of the way they do. For instance, he was claiming that people in general think he's a toxic streamer because of the "WHY AM I TAHXIC?" meme, rather than his personality influencing that meme.

 

[big ups liquid richard]

You didn't happen to follow up with a question why people should read his guides over the better written, presented and researched guides?

I didn't, but i suspect he thinks his are just as good.

 

[Phil Factor]

Phil's still been ignoring the whole stress thing, right? I think I've seen some people in chat try to @ him with comfort messages to bait it out of him but he's just ignored it and stuck with the 'I didn't make any money the week I was gone' meme.

It's obviously a big set up for the foreclosure/lawsuit/big twitch payout money drying up summer drama. I guess he knows he needs a month or two to let everyone's checking accounts build up again, with a cherry on top if some of the loyal fans are graduating high school / college and getting gifts for it.

To the graduating classes of 2019, congratulations! You have your whole lives ahead of you and are all about to embark on the next exciting journey!

Don't make the first step giving this motherfucker one cent of your graduation money.

If Grandma Ethel died and left you an inheritance and you gave Phil some of that? This would be worse than that, and that's bad. As a matter of fact, stop letting this stagnant tide pool flimflam you out of anything further.

To the class of 2019. Uhh. You did it! After working your ass off and achieving a 12 year legacy of going to school, okay, you finally have graduated. Later in life you may look back on, uhh your time uhh, your time in school. What will you remember? Snort.

Will you remember all your friends? Friends are stupid kiddie shit, okay, and real full adults don't have time for other people. Forget those nudniks. Fair enough.

Will you remember the umm information you learned over your studies? Will you use it to go on to college? Snort. Of course not! The American educational system, I kid you not, is a pyramid scheme and the only people who can go to a good school are either rich people or the blacks. And when you get done with college, what next? There are literally no jobs in America. Real talk. I worked at an office job for five years. FIVE YEARS! And I got lost that job because the company was run by idiots. But I digress. It wasn't my fault! The idiots at the company fired everyone and went out of business because they were book smart, not street smart. Ack ack ack.

What you should remember is all the fun chill times you had watching my content. The joy you got from interacting, whether through tipping, cheering, subbing, pledging to my Patreon, or buying my merch from teesprings. This is great quality merchandise, I own dozens of my own shirts. There are so many benefits to being a supporter. Umm, some troll just cheered something about Kat, my wife. Going to do the "lean in manual ban" there you go. So anyways, you can clock on the link to tip. You can be completely anonymous.

Congratulations class of 2019. Just a reminder, Thursday is my day off to run errands with Kat but I'll be back Friday with more cool fun content.

There are things you have to do during sponsored streams such as putting in your stream title that it is in fact a sponsored stream, and Phil has only ever done that twice and according to some mod leaks Phil stated to his mods that he was blacklisted from the bounty program. .before he ran his 2nd sponsored stream. .which means his "Sponsored stream of Assasin's Creed: Odyssey" was in fact fake he literally just put 'Sponsored' in the title and pretended it was when he figured out it was on the bounty board either due to hearing about it likely from his mods or reading other stream titles in the sub-directory. The 1st one was a shitfest of FakeSydePhil and his chat non-stop shitting on the game (an obscure Steam game available in Alpha) and after detractors REEE'd in the dev company's Discord they were very displeased with who was representing their game on Twitch, and stated they had ties to people running the bounty program.

TL;DR Phil ran 1 sponsored stream and got 86'ed from the program, then he faked a 2nd one to try to prove to his Twitch overlords he could be a goodboy or some shit.

The ELO Hell sponsored stream was great.

The "story" was stupid and filled with corny jokes. Normally Phil would have said how dumb it was or talked over it. Instead he praised it for being "90's inspired in the vein of sitcoms like Friends".

The gameplay was also not very good. Phil had no idea what he was doing. Normally he would berate the game and developers for being idiots. Instead the AI was very smart as it knew to attack him. When the AI was bugging out and spinning in circles because Phil died and it couldn't find him, Phil commented on how good it was programmed. "The computer is spinning in circles just like a real player would do a victory dance".

And after the allotted time, nothing was accomplished, the gameplay sucked, and the story was dumb. Phil's expert gamer opinion? "It was a fun game. I can't say anything negative about it because it is unfinished. I can't wait to play the finished game and see where the story goes".

 

[ZehnBoat]

it's a shame phil no longer can do sponsored streams.
i would love for phil to work for his money
having to put up with that fake ass "guys it's a good game" attitude all stream
watch him try to bullshit his way past everything

in fact, i would have loved it if he had to do a sponsored stream of a fighting game
imagine, he can't scream about how "THE DEVELOPERS ARE DUMB AHUHUHU"
no "ONLINE TACTICS STUPID SCRUBS!!"
every round he has to "good jab" "good throw" "good game" through gritted teeth

My favorite part of when he complains about memes is just how uninformed he is on the Internet. He talks about liking memes makes people feel like some sort of culture or “viral movement. They feel like they’re a greater whole and have purpose”

Like I’m sorry but what? It’s just some funny pictures online dood. I see them on twitter, get a good laugh and then move on. Who looks a a fucking meme of the new sonic movie online and get some weird boner like they are part of a “viral movement”

It’s just baffling, he makes it sound like pictures online that come and go like the sun are a group of dedicated people on a forum passionate about a specific topic.

It’s just people getting a chuckle out of a picture online....for fucks sake dark

 

[Pargon]

Spergs. So, like Phil.

I think he sometimes conflates subsections of the internet with something approaching secret societies. Like memes are all some sort of autistic shibboleth and we're all communicating with one another on some deeper level that just confuses and frightens him. I'm fucking Methuselah and I swear to God Phil is a bigger boomer than I am.

That's two things I don't like about Phil, now that you brought this up. He calls other streamers shills but is willing to abandon his personal opinions on games he dislikes when he's sponsored. He'll always leave some shifty compliment where he'll insert a watered-down version of his opinion. It's fucking dishonest, but that's par for the course with him.

You know in his head, Phil was thinking "This game fucking SUCKS, dood! Now gimme my money, ACKACKACK!"

I mean, Jesus, Phil. Either shit or get off the pot.

Just don't even try. Roll over and play the victim. As if Riot or Square give a fuck about who you are or the 100 trolls that would tweet at them if you took a bounty.

The way he describes “meme culture” sounds like Internet forums or groups that have hated on him in the past. Which I can understand to a degree, take this forum, we all come here for pretty much the same collective reason, to make fun of some loser. Or I guess he feels that way about people who follow say tervin because he’s a face for detractors or something(even though that’s a bit hypocritical on his part since he practically runs a fucking cult of speds)

Like I can understand his logic in that scenario....then he just applies it to pictures people get a laugh out of online....and he just sounds like such a boomer. It’s not a viral movement, it’s just how information and news is spread along social media.

Idk why he thinks everyone’s got a secret agenda to everything online, social media has made memes so easy to spread it’s hard to find anyone 30 or younger with any modern internet presence who isn’t passively familiar with some of them, but what do I know dood I’m just a nudnik and feel a real sense of purpose and belonging when I chuckle at the CJ meme.....

"Sad but true. I should be eligible for any program or offer regardless of my standing, level of skill or minimum resources! All avenues should be open to me, dood!"

Phil is every sad old bastard in every place of business who demands special accommodation on the virtue of being the most shriveled fucker in the room. His most oft-touted accomplishment, his ten year legacy, isn't a testament to tenacity or strength of will. It's just a monument to Newton's First Law.

 

[bearsintrees]

I posted that but I'm kinda thinking that there's a reckoning coming with regards to twitch bounties. Streamers who don't care about the game they're playing making in an hour what a programmer or artist makes in a month is probably gonna be a big story in the coming months, and it's been Twitch's dirtiest secret.

 

[actually]

He wouldn't make that $4k bounty money anyway. His viewcount is nowhere near high enough to be worth more than a small fraction of that kind of money.

 

[Pargon]

And we know this because if $4k were being offered by as reputable (lmao) an entity as Twitch rather than some nudnik detractor then the lengths to which we would see Phil go to claim it I daresay would shame the devil. We would witness a man suck his own dick.
