Who had Sgt Slaughter tweets at Gat Hanzo on their CG bingo card?
Granted, he has no idea what WC is or any of this shit, but a Sgt Slaughter cameo is just what this season of CG needed. I can't wait til Cuckston gets retweeted by Pee Wee Herman 😂

Wasn't Gat supposed to be meeting with his lawyers last week about Frog's abandonding him? I remember several tweets about that. Has the lawyer stopped laughing at him yet? Anxiously awaiting an update.
 
Have you watched his debut appearance on the Liamstream with TUG? That shit was fucking hilarious. If you haven't here's a link with a timestamp included in the URL of when Mike Oxmaul enters.
Yes, he was epic, mostly because he goes random railroad/gay partner/sasparila randomeness, only to hit them with totally rational arguements and hard truths. When he was asking TUG about his wife I was on the floor laughing
 

Do we get a say? Because fuck that....if we adopt anyone it won't be Frog...

Big props to Doug here. He's sending copies of the remastered version of Bigfoot Bill to all the international backers who got screwed on getting a physical copy of the Making of book on his dime. This should earn back a decent amount of goodwill from people who still pissed about not getting it.

He should have fulfilled his promise and better late than never. It's always been a black eye.

In news after my mental health break from this tism. Brought to you Sunday because DC killed new comic book day so who cares what day anymore.

Vestige 2 is funded! it has 25 grand.

Breaking it down. 4,000 of that is off the black and white. 100 is from multiple copy. 3,900 is from original art. another 3,000 from the draw into the book tier. So just original art pages and the draw me in the book account for a third of Vestige 2's bank.

In other news, Frog has two IGG. The first is Cyberfrog and we all know how he's manipulating the numbers there. More interesting is the Vampirella covers.

So his first Dynamite cover got 62,000 before going in demand eventually topping at around 67,000. His second did worse, 51,000 before going in demand and finishing around 61,000. This last one is in demand so Frog can't mess with the numbers too much. It finished at just 24,000 dollars and is currently at 31,000 dollars. He can leave it demand for longer periods, run multiple campaigns. But the numbers indicate a steady decline in these alt covers. They're still lucrative. 30,000+ for what's a days work plus whatever he pays Kyle Ritter isn't bad.

Listen up War Campaign: right now there is a community suffering due to having zero access to crowd-funded comic books. Right now, there is unprecedented cultural warfare that only you, the OGCG, can put an end to. They need innovators. Even if they wind up using Vestige as toilet paper, CHAZ needs you! Stop being so selfish thinking your twitter tent community is the only one living off those rent-free memes! Think of how the threat of dox alone could keep the peace. Everyone would come together. No guns! Think of all the dead siblings you could help bring back to life only to place your metaphorical knee to their necks!

Black Lives Matter?

No.

Black Dragon Lies Matter.

I hear ambulance response times could vary slightly in your area. Don't let that keep you from doing your duty for this country.
 

Testefy-HD was brought on to Ethan's stream for Ethan to completely blame Testefy for the destruction of WC. It's still going.

Testefy is now the cause of everything according to Frog. He's going to let Ro and especially psycho Pan off the hook and back in. WC had a long DLive stream tonight too and only added a single backer.

Mark it, Ro and Pan are coming back and WC will be worse than ever before.

Ethan, WHAT does Ro have on you???

all these grifters who 'showed up' after zack made his money on his first jawbreakers book are dumb.

I wondered who the new villain they'd have to invent would be and it's clearly the Testefy guy, I just never guessed Ro and Pan would be welcomed back. This whole thing feels like a work. Rasslin' brother!

I don't think Ro and Pan are gonna be welcomed back. Malin clearly pointed out that Ro crossed the line too himself. Pan also wars with Ethan all day. Don't think they'll be mingling back together.

EDIT: A wild Ro appeared. TUG who was trying to sound like he's sucking Ethan's dick on this issue, is going to get a rude awakening it seems:

And... a wild shot at TUG's Mailbox:

The door was opened for their return. Wait a bit longer, there will be a token apology from Ro, Testefy - who nobody heard of until a month or so ago - will be thrown aside and it will be all good.

Testefy has been getting BTFO'd on various livestreams for the past three days. Mike Oxmaul destroyed him on Oz Art's livestream, the next day Oz destroyed him over his comments on Liam and now Ethan is eating him alive.

Testefy-HD on suicide watch.

So Testefy is being set up to be the next Praetorian? Warcampaign's sins will be blamed on one member who is instantly exiled and discarded giving WC as a whole a scapegoat for their recent behavior? I could honestly see it happening and Testefy would be the perfect fall guy since most of WC agree he's a fucking idiot too.

I could see Ethan and Ro patching things up, even Pan and Ethan. Ethan has welcomed back JDA to Comicsgate twice now despite their history of slap fighting on the internet, I could see him patching things up with Pan. Ro and Malin would be a lost cause but perhaps an uneasy truce could be arranged with certain guarantees.

I bet TUG is sweating balls right now. We can only speculate that receipts between Ethan and WC exist, however receipts between TUG and WC are pretty much guaranteed to exist, we have some of them already. TUG seems to be caught between a rock and a hard place, Ethan wants all CG creators to disavow and disassociate with WC, while WC probably has a lot of back room chatter with TUG that he doesn't want to get out.
 
After 3 years of making videos YBZ realizes that pros cancelling other pros and fans on twitter is about taking out competitors/opening positions they want.

It took him a while...
 
I'm 2 hours into the livestream Oz did with Testefy because I missed it, but goddamn does Oz drag his ass here. He lost the argument against Testefy very quickly. So he spent the next hour trying to fish for Testefy's personal life information in order to pin something onto him to go back to the point that Testefy could have been wrong for calling Liam a liar. Apparently, Liam told Testefy something in private, which caused him to suspect that Liam doesn't actually care about CG, which I actually kind of agree with.


If you ask me, I agree with Testefy actually that Liam is probably doing something suspicious. His black and white version of his book was done 2 months ago, the colored version currently is being worked on. Why has he not printed his book to ship the black and white version to his backers so far but is instead moving onto developing a videogame? You can't really make the argument of "he might get more backers, so why would he print it now?" because you should always print a sizeable amount more than what you currently have for the incase. Also, having extra copies after sales means you can take it to eBay or other bookstores.

Liam also has never shown a proof copy either.

My theory is that Liam's redirecting his funds to the video game development and people won't see the book until he makes profit on the game to print them, and I could be wrong, but I have no other theory at the moment, however, because I'm interested in what all WC knows on the inside, I'm inclined to believe Testefy that he knows something about Liam that is damning.

Ethan's a retard for not letting Testefy say anything and trapped him before he could defend himself and used a blanket statement to play gotcha and call him a liar, and I'm not even playing Devil's advocate here, but Testefy really didn't get to talk much because Sketch kept jumping at him every chance he got. Once again, EeHee was an absolute moron and was totally ego-tripping.

Testefy also said in that livestream with Oz that he will not say what Liam's told him in private because he will not "dox Liam".

I'll have to finish watching the rest of this, but watching Oz try and play mental gymnastics whilst trying to get every single personal information out of this guy whom, even if he's been railroaded by some folks the past few days, does actually bring up some interesting things, is pretty retarded because he's scanning for possible arguments to attribute it to why Testefy is the way he is. Playing armchair psychologist basically.

Somebody mentioned how the Australian dollar had cratered vs. the American, so I was wondering if that might be part of the problem. The answer is...not at this point. It had a big drop in March, but it has come back to its traditional range of somewhere between US$0.65-0.70 vs. AUS$1.00. In fact, it looks like it is trading at the high end of that range presently. Meaning I don't think shipping costs should be anything he didn't (or shouldn't have) anticipate(d)?

I doubt it.

If you hound someone out of Comicsgate by making CG unbearable to be in for them, in Frog's mind that means that person weak and never meant for CG. If you make Comicsgate unbearable for Frog to be in, as it was when Frog announced he was no longer having guests, then in Frog's mind you are an existential threat to his business and must be dealt with. Collaborating with renfamous against Jon Del Arroz is a white lie; wearing a cherry emoji on your twitter handle is grounds for purging.

Ro knows Frog very well and took care not to cross that line, but got sloppy over time and lost control of his morons. Oz Art made a very interesting observation when he noted that the two more aggressive WC newcomers he interviewed (Testefy and Wiggle) did not even consider people or events that occurred outside of Comicsgate.
 
Frog had three good non-WC days but then jumps right back in to give them oxygen instead of moving on? Now he's on with Oz stirring it all up again. It looks like he's decided they MUST have this drama to drive clicks.
Moron forgets eventually people stop caring, and this will legit kill off more people from buying again because of the about face. Not that he gives a shit, he only sees the income bracket, not crowd size bracket.

Until he tries and fails to use this thread to gaslight or "dear diary" about it because he keeps getting pissed about how that's the better margin for success IMO.
