With a (questionable) W from James Drake, how would you rate season 5 of Fishtank?

  • 1 Star — Absolute disaster. Unwatchable, boring, production fucked it up bad, the fish were lame

    Votes: 56 7.3%

  • 2 Stars — Pretty bad. Some funny moments, dragged, too many vibe repair days. Barely worth checking.

    Votes: 87 11.4%

  • 3 Stars — Average. Solid entertainment in spots, some good chaos and crashouts, but nothing special

    Votes: 170 22.2%

  • 4 Stars — Really good. Lots of hilarious moments, strong fish personalities, solid content and vibes

    Votes: 405 52.9%

  • 5 Stars — Peak Fishtank / Masterpiece. Non-stop insanity, legendary fish and production, pure chaos

There is probably an upfront cost and then a metered bandwith cost, if the show is attracting far more traffic than they planned they could rack up huge costs very quickly. It's like cellphone overages, the rates are designed to fuck you.

Aw bloody hell, imagine being fucked by a plan working above and beyond what you expected. Imagine being fucked by success. The absolute state of the world, fuck me sideways that is the gayest shit imaginable.
 
Aren't there free and open source alternatives? Would that be viable or are they full of flaws as well?
Edit: I'm retarded

I think it works in a credit system and it’s just getting drained so fast due to the viewership. Each viewer is streaming 11 video feeds constantly, etc.

If the site just streamed the active camera and updated thumbnails for the others that’d probably save so much.

If they are streaming all those feeds independently that seems stupidly expensive. They should be streaming a single 4k feed and then breaking it up into smaller sections and isolating/up-scaling them via script.
 
I leave for one hour and the entire thing fucking crashes into the ground because Sam is illiterate? Truly a master at work.

Perhaps sending the data from all ten cameras to all viewers at all times even when only watching one view is kinda retarded.

Guarantee that's fixed before it comes back up, if it does.

Seriously, they could have cut on bandwidth in so many ways. When viewing all cams, you could compress the shit out of the quality and probably throw out 75% of the frames. Whoever is in charge of the tech is either or retard, or too intimidated by Sam to tell him shit like "we're going to exceed our web services cap soon" and "I'm too incompetent to figure out how to save you bandwidth and not fuck your hosting costs".

Will they tell the contestants why paypig TTS went quiet or will they leave them in the dark? I'm picturing him bringing the camera crew in and telling the fish that shit hit the fan all of a sudden.

It can work. People are pretending it can but I'll preorder at this point.
