I'm getting nonstop video recommendations for anti-EJ/Rippaverse videos from people I've never heard of. It's turning into a monster grift.

How pozzed are your youtube recommendations? Where do you even find these people?

It's been mentioned in this thread before, but FNT, Nerdrotic, and Eric July have managed to rise up to their heights without a dedicated Hatercorps. This is, as previously put "an untapped content mine".
This is the gamble of Trashcast/Thrashcast/Cashcast/etc. To build an audience of people who simply dislike or have genuine hatred for the FNT Friendtubers. It's a tactic that Memetubers like Pyro Cynical leaned into during the Pewdiepie vs T-Series competition. There are various channels dedicated to exploring the drama related to Game Grumps, Jontron, Vanoss Gaming, Minilad, Wildcat, Nogla, and Terroriser (Let's Play youtubers). As the self identified Rippaverse Detractors have proven, it's lucrative. The trouble is, when the attention on Eric and FNT begins to shrink, the Hatercorps will shrink at double speed.

So let's do a little math. According to Martin, Snowman was ready in August...but EVS announced needing more buyers to print Snowman back in October 2023. Meaning, the book is completely done.

Back in July and August Matt Martin told everyone that tweeted at him asking about Snowman to "go ask EVS the book has been done for six months", so at this point the book probably been done for about a year now.

After Matt tweeted the announcement of it going to print soon in August I went back to look for those tweets, but he had deleted them.

The forced meme of NDA is so cringe. What's the point? Afraid people won't buy it if details are described? The absurdity of these youtube products and their inability to just fucking make a thing and sell it without making it a circus. Legit comic book companies do ordinarily launch a shit load of different titles so in that respect the Rippaverse gets closer to being a real comic book operation than any of the comicsgaters. Even this garbage announcement owns @FROG maybe it will trigger him into launching yet another diminishing returns title people won't see for 5+ years.

His timeline is tweet after tweet screaming about Melanie Mac being childless in her late 30s and Eric July.

It is interesting that that, despite Mac looking good for 36 and being a conservative "Christian" woman, she's got tattoos, recently dyed her hair red and is still single.

From what I understand he has income from other sources beyond comic book sales as well.

He does. He has his music, he has YT rev. I think he might have a third.

That was one of the big things about his structuring that he invested up front with his own money to get everything set up and make Isom. The crowdfunding was essentially a way to learn how many they needed to print. As opposed to others funding it then actually making the product. Thereby meaning it might take ages to actually get books.

Does EVS have any other streams of income besides drawing art, streaming, and getting paid to have people fuck his woman?

Because nowadays, merely surviving in the US, or trying to obtain a six-figure income, involved having multiple sources of income.
 
I would guess that EVS has a very limited ability to fulfill campaigns and that what has been holding back Snowman is his prioritizing getting out other campaigns over it. I would suspect that his fulfillment is as poorly organized and inefficient as everything else he does.

I'll try to locate it later, but I recall someone recently posted a video on Twitter EVS made (possibly January 2023). And apparently EVS ordered at least 10,000 extra CyberFrog 2 books than he needed for the campaign. Based on the video EVS made, the warehouse he had the pallets in was packed. Will guess about half of that would eventually go out. But that kind of checks out with not ordering the Snowman book then because of lack of space. I don't know if he had the second warehouse at that point or if he got it for the toys. A lot of which are possibly still unsold at this point.

While there is a chance that he spent some or most of the money. I'm starting to lean more and more on him just not having the space for stuff anymore. Will be interesting to see if those posters actually get printed and go out in April/May since of all the campaigns. That really should be the easiest to fulfill. They'll probably already come in a tube too. So it's just a matter in most cases of just slapping a label on the tube and sending it on its merry way. A retarded monkey can do that.

Found it.

I was going to try and add up the comic orders based on the campaigns, but he has too many variants making me not want to waste my time on it. So am going to just go with what the guy that posted this said and keep it at 10,000 to sell after the campaign.

I think the NDA thing is meant to be fun, but to also build hype. Get people to talk about stuff which in turn helps get the stuff trending on Twitter and maybe YouTube/elsewhere. I don't know if the trending stuff on Twitter is localized or based on who you follow. But practically everyday for the last week or two I've been seeing nothing but Rippaverse, Yaira, or Eric July on the trending tab.

Early on, she mentioned that she was married at some point. But it didn't work out. Can't recall if she got more specific than that. And won't talk about it beyond that because it'd be one sided and not fair to the guy. But who knows. Could have been religious reasons. He or she did something. Something else.


EDIT: Added picture/video.

No I'm pretty sure they'll arrive at the warehouse in a big slab of 100 or 500pc bundles. Those slabs may be in a tube but usually they're packed flat. From there each has to be rolled individually and placed in a tube for shipping to the customer.

By my count he sold 594 total posters but there are 4 variations:

Poster A: 159
Poster B: 127
Poster C: 151
Poster D: 157

If I had to guess he's probably printing 500 of each, maybe 1,000? The shipping tubes will take 10x the warehouse space of the poster bundles themselves.

Yeah. I’ll just assume he’s having a lot of logistic problems because he did not buy enough space.

sounds like he needs help in fulfilling orders and logistics. I think there's something that can help him

He had two warehouses at one time and recently let one of them go, consolidating into one IIRC.

Wait, so people were giving EJ shit for getting a warehouse for his business when EVS was already doing it to begin with???

Christ, these obsessed detractors really are just disingenuous as fuck.

Correct. He even hired some of his sons friends at one point to help before putting his wife to work.
