[October 23, 2019] NEW REEEEEEMERGENCY - The begging season starts earlier every year...

[ZehnBoat]

Nah. Probably get the one week token ban like Amouranth.

It'd be hilarious because he "can't afford" to be banned for a week so he'd try to stream to Youtube instead and probably botch it somehow.

I mean, he's already said "faggot" on Twitch and not been banned, so I wouldn't be too hopeful on that score.

honestly, guy could slit khet's throat live on stream and twitch will give a 24 hour ban tops

Dude if this guy gets a job, and currently feels overworked, he might actually die.

If this bare minimum, lazy, reductive experience is hard for him then he'll never find a job. Imagine having Dark as your coworker whining constantly about when the next break is or how hard it is.

Imagine having Philip as your coworker and having to hear about how he lost his job at the helicopter factory, about his 10+ year legacy, and how detractors ruined his life and now he has to work this shitty, dead end job that he is totally overqualified for because he was the high school valedictorian and he has a business degree. Oh, if you can, please tip him through Patreon. He gets that money immediately. Every little bit helps. He needs that money to pay his bills. Every fucking day.

$1800 Halloween costume, possibly as King Midas.

Okay, so just rewatched the begging segment on Tevin's stream archive and, now that I could pay attention, I'm even more dumbfounded. He starts by saying, 'I'm not gonna beat around the bush'. Can't decide if that's just insulting or not, given what follows. Then, he basically makes this pitch, this appeal, for $1800 (this was the best cumulative paraphrase of all the words salad he threw out during the segment I could put together):


'My parents told me I had to change some unknown stuff behind the scenes (can't say what things). I have been all year, but I if I tell you what those things are, it wouldn't make sense legally and, legally, it could get me in trouble. I asked someone (can't say who!) and they said I'd get in trouble. I basically have to pay a certain amount (can't tell you yet how much!) by the end of the month. If I don't, all the unknown stuff I've been doing behind the scenes all year (remember, I can't tell you what, because, illegal!) will maybe not happen in the next month to beginning of next year and will fall apart. That's if I don't pay these unknown things with this unknown amount, but I can't tell you what will actually happen, so let's just say... ummm, I might lose my house. That works. Also, if I only get SOME, it won't be perfect, but it might not be as bad'.

In what world could ANYBODY say to any group of people something this vague, this obfuscated, with as many generalities and as few specifics and, in the end, receive $1800 from the people you said it too? Because we know hes gonna get it. Really think about it and try and picture doing this in real life, exactly like he did. And EVEN THEN, nothing would change, no problem would be solved to any extent more than the most immediate short-term, and you'd have to do this same thing again in no longer than a year's time from now. Amazing.

Got a good laugh from this imagining his parents set him up with a loan shark and he's about to get kneecapped. Too bad the reality isn't half as interesting as that.

DSP's average monthly income in 2019: $9700.
DSP's average live viewers in 2019: 380

DSP wants his viewers to pay him an average of $25 or more per month. Dude has no concept of money.

"if all of my viewers just paid me 1 dollar, I would never have any money issues"

 

[Perspicacity]

"if all of my viewers just paid me 1 dollar, I would never have any money issues"

That was to his "million+ viewers a month" on youtube . Seeing how bad DSP is with money, he'd still be broke.

 

[DarkScrubPhil]

Here's a random thought. What if the payment(s) he's talking about is related to his income business taxes? What if Phil actually got audited by the IRS, and they came back to him and said, "This is how much you owe us. Pay up or else."?

It is reasonable that Phil probably under-reported his income by not including all the "gifts" he's been receiving. I'm talking about the TV, the PS4 Pro, all the games, etc. Those things should have been reported as income for his business, even if he didn't receive cash. So the IRS audits him, finds these gifts, recalculates his taxes and says, "Pay this amount or else we're coming after you."

The first thing the IRS would do is do a civil suit against a delinquent tax payer. This is so the IRS can come after his assets, such as his house. Jail time would be the last resort, and only in cases of gross fraud or tax evasion.

Of course, it could be a mix of things, but I'm starting to suspect that it has to do with his taxes yet again.

Inspired by EA and Ubisoft, DarkSydePhil Entertainment has now embraced the live service model for the quality of early access. Sounds good?

Naw, he wouldn't put it as a gift. He would write it off as a business expense like he does his electricity and internet line. They probably asked for reciepts for all of those things and he ain't got em.

 

[DiabeticSP]

It's possible, I suppose, he got audited after the payment plan fiasco.

"Hey this guy didn't pay his taxes for 3 years someone should look into that" and eventually later he turned up on the spot check pile and got flagged.

It would make sense why he needs to 'stay on track' for a second tax reason.

 

[PomegranateKing]

I wouldn't believe this even if Phil was streaming it on his phone from his front lawn as repo men took all his gamer shit. But I have no doubt he'll raise it all on or by the 31st. This man would beg for money as they installed a diamond encrusted toilet in his house, and they'd beg him for a dsp tries it "diamond toilet shit" as they throw their money at him. I guarantee you, there's already a whale that has promised dsp that they will give him the remaining balance he needs by the end date.

It's like watching blackhead removal, or ear cleanings. It's fucking disgusting but hey, there's a market for it. But unlike those videos, nothing is going towards the health or wellness of an individual.

DSP just said he's still taking Tuesday off to do groceries, despite Wednesday being "the last day" for him to raise funds. Reasons: he has obligations, such as "appointments and meetings", and he can do groceries only one day a week.

[MoonRocker]

DSP went on a massive rant yesterday that anybody surmising about what the $1,800 are fucking children whose balls haven’t dropped and we know nothing about finances because we don’t own properties.

Given that he said the same thing about the marriage and cat reveal, we’re probably right for all we know.

If only there was someone else in the house who could do those things instead of him.

 

[CausticMinory]

He's gotta go though doods! How else is he gonna make sure Khet gets the right ingredients for his special sauce. Can't trust that horse with his money unsupervised.

Still funny he really seemed to think he had a million+ people watching 1 10 minute chunk of a playthrough each not ~1000(at his peak) watching each video to see the full playthrough.

Even if all of that was true (and I don't think it is), why would he only know about it a week before the money was due? If it was a payment plan with the IRS, that's all laid out way in advance. For a logical person, it would be a top priority, and the tens of thousands of dollars he's made in the past few months would easily cover it anyway (since even with penalties you would only pay taxes on a fraction of what you owe). It wouldn't be something he'd suddenly have to desperately beg for the week before it was due.
