At this point they should leave director ON on autopilot, I just leave the site up in the background as I work, and every few hours when I hear activity I jump over and take a look. Been a consistent 5k+ today

Audio is not working. (Probably fired up on Kick and is waiting for people to show up)

FAILURE. Couldn't get the audio working.


Bongo wants to sleep in the tank. Bingo does not.

So people are saying Burt's $50k is a bit, I really don't think so though. I think last minute they decided to give the Twins $20k and Burt $50k because they made so much money during the last month.
I dunno... Like yes Burt deserves it for the value he brought to the tank 100%. Season 3 and his week on season 5, for getting beaten, for just being a content machine, it made the show so much more enjoyable.

But I don't think his behavior when the twins were getting choked was an act and that really was horrible. I do find him to be unbelievable and unbelievably funny, it's just his face in that moment really turned my stomach. So fuck him. Pay him or not, he'll come back to work the goo room in season 6.

Bingo gave her Binding of Isaac hat to Mints as a thank you for getting them on the show.
 
Must haves:
  • Interesting personalities and character arcs
  • People either sinking or swimming to the pressure of the tank
  • Absurd shit that makes you remember that it isn't Big Brother lite
  • Jet and Ben doing stupid ass bits with the cast members (dragons, aliens, weird talent show mog complete, tiktok dances, little maejok spirit, superfriendbed, date, filming a movie) this is essential to the shows quirky nature
  • A cast that goes well together in terms of all being different enough from one another. It's beneficial for me as an audience member to be able to switch to whatever "show" I want to watch when there's nothing scheduled.
  • Vibe repair days NOT ON A FUCKING SATURDAY. Also they DO need to sleep sometimes.
  • Letting them box Mints. Please God let them fight Mints.
 
I think more prize money is good, but I also liked that Jet held out until half way through to start giving out more prize money, so that the quitters(Bezos, Charity) and the lame(JD) got nothing. I think Drunk POS challenge was the only cash prize in the first two weeks, and I think they could of done more
Now that I think about it, why not just use the missions as a sort of a day rate? Every day they get a mission with say $150 payout(or it starts lower and gets up as the time goes?). Even if we assume 10 people with an elimination every 4ish days, even if every fish clears every mission they will have to pay out like 30k which is not a big deal.
And I'm sure that people would be more willing to do stuff for 150 bucks than they are for some gay fish dollars that will buy them 2 redbulls
 
I definitely took the Burt 50k as a bit
Think they planned Burt getting the 50k, and Twins getting 20k, to cement the new era of Fishtank. Ben and Jet obviously want to change the direction of the show; it can be dark, silly and stupid, but ultimately they will value you if you give into the show. Burt gave a lot to the show, metaphorically spitting in his face and leaving him in the desert isn't a precedent they want to repeat. Makes sense from multiple angles; encourages more content providing personalities to apply; keeps fans happy; grounds and legitimises the show, reminding production that this isn't just frivolity. Sam Hyde is a great host for Fishtank, but seemingly doesn't care about longevity. Ben and Jet are stating they're in it for the long haul with these decisions.
 
Decided to put it on because I'm addicted and wanted to see what was going on in the house before bed.

Really cool to see Wes taking the time to genuinely try to teach Landon. Obviously there is only so much to teach someone with 0 experience but he's doing a better job than James who kind of treated Landon like a child trying to learn as a joke. Don't get me wrong, James did teach him the basics in a bare minimum way but Wes is genuinely taking the time to help him get the feel

Regarding Burt, that certainly isn't a bit. I believe the wiggers really wanted to do right by Burt considering everything. He'll get the 50k.

also more jetbot/nifty type stuff, some of the funniest bits in the show was production clearly high off their asses messing with the fish at 4 AM in the morning
 
Bongo (or Baldgo) has stated James Drake deserved the W and that the shot of him choking them out was " what's the word? kino?" because of how sad he looked doing it.
No sad sore loser here. Good vibes only.
 
I swear to God if Jet said "All contestants get a chance to box Mints." I would apply for the next season right fucking now.
 
Jet back on Director. Let's see what he says.

1776224172143.png
- "We're doing pretty good. Lot of sleeping today."
- Richie is playing around with a new Ronin gimbal.
- Most of the cast are still there, having fun.
- Someone asked to autopilot director to Kick. He said it's gonna keep it on the site. They streamed to Kick enough.
- Jet feels like a faggot being on stream.
- Jet was wrestling with guilt last night, making him toss and turn. #1 he didn't give the Twins an exit speech. A lifetime regret, he only realized afterwards. Robbed them of their moment. (I noticed this.)
- Additionally, he forgot to thank Ben on his "Thank You" round. (I noticed this too.)
- Made the same mistake on Blood Games, forgot to thank Sam.
- "Gotta make sure nothings on fire, BRB."
1776224607879.png

- "Smells like a burning wire."
- "Oh wait, it's the bugs."
1776224697489.png

- Season is over, pressure is relieved.
- "People still watching aren't doing it because they have to, they're doing it because they want to." Got me there, generally intrigued to see how they take the show.
- Talking about post-season content.
- Talking about Alex Stein shooting an AK through a trailer and bringing on the weird troon Drake, Bash, and Landon tossed.
- Rest of the wiggers are at a bar. "While you drank, I studied the blade. While you partied, I read the Art of War."
- Told the remaining fish to be quiet outside, neighbors are close.
- Likes the off-season nature of today / right now, there's way less pressure.
- The team wants to do some whacky ideas.

1776225213194.png
- Wes enters.
- "TJ had the arc of autistic to man. Landon didn't get that full arc, but if Sam was here, he would have been molded into a better soldier."
- "In the post season we can change Landon into a chad."
- An idea they had was "CHUD to Chad." Give autists botox, raised shoes, and so on. "We wouldn't do that to Landon, though."
- Burt is likely leaving later. Jet says he has honed his entertainment skills.
- "We used to just try to make ourselves laugh than the audience."
- 35,000 viewers during finale

Three ideas:

1. Mansion casting party, tons of people, whittle them down
Not buying flights, just let people buy their own travel, RSVP though
Jet says everyone was calling it "Onlyfans Egirl Diddy part!"

2. Survival type content. Hunting, outdoors, getting away from screens.

3. Chud to Chad

4, Shorter events, like 5 days

- Making fun of people being annoyed by Kimmee.
- She suggested "Week on, week off." So the week off they can plan, and week on they could execute.

- They aren't gatekeeping the strategy for the fishtank format.
- "It's so difficult to do, it's probably a bad idea to try and do it."
- They don't know if people like the new cameras, or prefer just the surveillance mode. (I think they should split it, two directors: Fishtank Classic, and Goo Mode.)
