He WILL get rid of them. He only got into it in the first place cause hoped twtich will monetize them and he will get some of that.

Did Phil hint at that being a future plan at all for this system yet? I know the guide posted for them a few pages back indicates there will be more functionality added to the system at an indeterminate time but I can see DSP getting a little more info through Twitch that might carrot on a stick him enough for him to bear with it hoping to juice the monthly payout amount through them. If there is a monetization on the horizon it may now be a race to those two finish line outcomes, so we'll see who gets there first...

Until there exists a very simple, obvious method for monetization (because Phil is neither creative nor industrious) we will see very little in terms of unique perks for Bearers of the Penne. In point of fact, I bet we won't see any movement on it until someone posts about finding one either here or on TKOHF. Considering it's meant to be a system for streamers to reward their audiences that shouldn't be surprising; Phil doesn't give a single shit about his fans.

So apparently the moderator chat rooms on Twitch are being closed down permanently on Oct. 31st, and DSP has set up "a new method outside of the streams".
















No more mod chat need to set up.PNG


Leaks from the private Discord, when? :stress:

Someone mentioned a Mac and cheese pizza and Phil said "that sounds disgusting to me as an honest Italian. An authentic Italian... At least an authentic east coast Italian.... First of all what you have to understand, Mac and cheese is AMERICAN"

The council of regional dishes at this point has agreed that in the US you have two types of mac and cheese, the kind for little kids in a blue box and the kind you find at places where the people who frequent make Phil bite his nails. In other words it's either soul food or you mix it with hot dogs for a five year old.

I really don't see any reason Phil would implement the 'Penne Points' system of the channel currency that Twitch is launching. If he gave detractors and paypigs a way to to access things for free like emotes and highlighted comments then he would lose munny.

The other thing is chat currency is already a thing that has existed for years, this is just Twitch officially trying to launch chat currency integrated through their site UI. Before you had to set-up chat currency on your own through the bots, but people were already doing endlessly creative things with it years ago.
I know one guy who would let people redeem points to buy their own sound effect where they had a chat command that would play a .WAV file on his PC
Other people I've seen use it to open raffles that cost points to enter and the randomly chosen winners get to join his team to play the game.
You could already set-up chat commands that contain your channels emotes if you want to give everyone the opportunity to access and I'm sure you could set that up to require channel currency to activate.
I saw someone streaming with his wife and you could pay channel currency to switch whose perspective the stream was showing.
etc. . .

The point is this shit has existed for years and Phil hasn't ever thought of implementing it, the only reason he's talking about it now is because he has to act amicably disposed towards the update so that he can later shit all over it and pretend to be the 'even-keeled rational big-brain' so his chat doesn't riot.

Has he ever let people vote with bits to decide which character he is going to pick from the roster in a fighting game?
And that actually involves giving him munny.
I could see him maybe setting it up just so he can tear it down as "proof" of his paranoid shut-in worldview.

You know, like, uhm... EVO

You raise a good point, how many people actually compete in EVO?

I assume it's a decent number, and that 4th place is still a pretty good place to end it - but if it's only 5 dudes in the whole tourney it's a different matter altogether.

Evo 2004 had about 700 participants counting every game. A fuck ton of people boycotted the game DSP placed in at Evo 2005. That should give you an idea of how few people he completed against.

Evo 2004 SFII placements:
1stJapan Daigo UmeharaDaigoO. Sagat, Ryu, Balrog
2ndUnited States John ChoiChoiboyO. Sagat, Guile

No one who had top 8 the year before actually participated.

Nowadays they get upwards of 7K competitors.

I don't follow fighting games at all and I recognize 3 names from the 2004 list and nobody from 2005. I remember hearing about the boycot in 2005 because of the bad port they decided to use. Does he ever defend this at all? He seems to cry about how shitty Capcom ports of their old games are constantly now but his "Win" (4th place) is on a really inferior console port that everyone seems to universally dislike?

i believe he does defend the port he played on since it got him the win, i couldn't think of any other reason he'd defend it
