🐟 Fishtank Fishtank.Live General - Jet Neptune's Pisces Aquarium Internet Reality Show w/ Host Bam Margera

[Jobama]

Not worried or fixated on winning this. Isn't sure there is a winner this time but wants to take it less seriously.

I can’t believe that there’s almost three days until this starts and they still don’t even know the basics of the game. I can’t fathom why they would sign up for it in the first place if they knew this little.

Game? We don’t even know if there’s a winner or a way to lose. This is quite literally a camping trip with added larping and is probably the closest the show has been to an actual friend simulator

There is a good chance we'll be days in and we still won't have a clue how someone wins.

 

[>-Ack!]

Anyone who still thinks that production rigged it for TJ is just coping because whichever contestant they supported lost. TJ won the swamp Olympics by a wide margin with or without the curses.

People can try to say that they rigged the challenges for TJ to win but there times like the paintball challenge when Tj arguably won but they gave it to Tay anyways. It’s not productions fault that Tay lost ever eating challenge after she said that she would eat shit to win or that Shinji quit the paintball challenge after getting hit in the head once.

all the final contenstants were pretty shit, honestly, and you could make a very good argument that they were all coddled in some way or another, shinji basically gave up before the finale even started, tayleigh gave up near the end of the first day of the challenges , TJ was the only one that never stopped doing it

 

[The Real Me]

A new a b upload.

 

[>-Ack!]

They were definitely biased against Tayleigh at the end. The majority of the fans were against her, almost all of the freeloaders were actively conspiring against her, and both TJ and Shinji were double teaming her, and production was constantly doing things that set her up to fail.

honestly the only people i have seen that like her are the schizos in /bant/ and some weirdos here, she is pretty universally hated otherwise, mostly because she is basically what haters thought letty was in season 1

 

[The Tall Man]

TJ was the only one that never stopped doing it

He was allowed to spend two days outside the fish tank before the finale. He even talked about getting some pizza and how nice it was being outside the tank.
Lubecooch got coddled because he had a little boo-boo.
Production blocked all the Lubecooch related TTS. Because he was too retarded to hold onto his chips, they invented the swamp Jinn.
I don't know why Jet fell in love with Lubecooch but it was plain as day that he did.

and you could make a very good argument that they were all coddled in some way or another

No, you can't.

 

[Alizarin Crimson]

I don't know why Jet fell in love with Lubecooch but it was plain as day that he did.

In my opinion, there are two reasons:
1. Their astroturfed narrative around TJ "becoming a man" was the best story they thought they could come up with, instead of just letting it play out without interference.
2. Just like in Season 1, production wanted the winner to be the one which appeals to the most paypigs. Josie was who the paypigs wanted to date, and TJ was the paypigs' self insert dream come true.

They were definitely biased against Tayleigh at the end. The majority of the fans were against her, almost all of the freeloaders were actively conspiring against her, and both TJ and Shinji were double teaming her, and production was constantly doing things that set her up to fail.

They gassed up how important chips were all season only for them to completely nerf them once Tayleigh had 3x more than everyone else. They did tons of challenges that she had basically zero chance of winning just because of physical limitations. They took away Dunyaye when he was planning to stay the entire time. They never gave her the advantage she was supposed to get for the drunk shenanigans. They made her go first in the bob sled thing and then disqualified her for stupid reason, then TJ went next and they let him lay in the floor and writhe for like 5 minutes without disqualifying him or making him continue forward. They were letting Trish give out false information that caused Shinji to keep cursing Tayleigh. They gave TJ free chips after he had his stolen making it even more impossible for Tayleigh to get points. There was absolutely no fucking way for her to win with how they did the Olympics and for some reason she's a doofus and bought into their bullshit reason of she didn't win because she was a meanie weanie when the entire show is supposed to be about being an asshole.

Fishtank is a social game and if Tayleigh made TJ and Shinji go against her that is her fault.

You should read the infographic I posted earlier but even without the chips TJ still would have been ahead of both Shinji and Tay by 10 points. They also didn't give TJ the chips for free he had to pay fatty 3k if he won. In the end those chips wouldn't have even mattered because he still would have been ahead without them. TJ clearly dominated dominated the competition points wise.

I think it's pretty disingenuous to say that it was biased against Tay because of the physical challenges. For one, Tay is athletic and could be on equal footing physically as seen in her boxing match against TJ who should did fairly well against. It's also not true that there were a disproportionate amount of physical challenges. Besides, Tayleigh did win some of the phsyical challenges like the egg dodge and the paintball challenge. Also, it's not like there was anything like a bench press challenge that would have obviously been biased against her. Besides, Tayleigh lost a lot of the non-physical challenges like the eating challenges.

You are completly misremebering the sled challenge. Tayleigh lost because she fell off the sled when they were going up the stairs. TJ didn't lay on the floor and writhe for five minutes. He hurt his tailbone and layed on the sled for 20 seconds before succsfully completing the challenge without falling off.

Tayleigh lost because she was unlikeable AND bad at challenges

 

[The Tall Man]

TJ and Shinji go against her that is her fault.

The problem with this statement is that Jet convinced Shinji to team up with TJ.
Coddled again.

to pay fatty 3k if he won.

Which production renegotiated on behalf of TJ, because he was too retarded and would have given Fatty half.

No, some bulimic girl can never beat an average dude in boxing, that is just complete nonsense.

I know you are our resident TJ simp, but you are constantly glossing over the fact that TJ got to spend two days outside the tank.

 

[Jobama]

He was allowed to spend two days outside the fish tank before the finale. He even talked about getting some pizza and how nice it was being outside the tank.
Lubecooch got coddled because he had a little boo-boo.

TJ went to the doctor because he had pink eye and injured his rib. Obviously they would have to take him to the doctor in case he seriously injured himself because it would have been a legal liability.

Production blocked all the Lubecooch related TTS. Because he was too retarded to hold onto his chips, they invented the swamp Jinn.

No, production absolutely did not block any lubecooch TTS. The swamp Jinn was invented in the start of the swamp Olympics when they were explaining the various NPC roles.

No, you can't.

Shinji barely has to deal with any physical or emotional abuse like TJ, Trish, or Tayleigh did. After his glasses got broken, Shinji immediately tried to quit before production coddled him to stay longer. Tayleigh punched Trish in the face and got away with it because they had already lost too many people

The problem with this statement is that Jet convinced Shinji to team up with TJ.
Coddled again.

It was mostly TJ and TTS that convinced him to go against Tayleigh. Even then he still would curse TJ

Which production renegotiated on behalf of TJ, because he was too retarded and would have given Fatty half.
Coddled again.

I’ll concede that production did help negotiate for TJ however he still had to pay for the chips so it’s not like he got them for free.

No, some bulimic girl can never beat an average dude in boxing, that is just complete nonsense.

I don’t think that Tayleigh can beat TJ in a boxing match. My point was that for a bulimic girl she did well against him so there being physical challenges wouldn’t be a massive disadvantage to her.

I know you are our resident TJ simp, but you are constantly glossing over the fact that TJ got to spend two days outside the tank.

I know you’re still mad that Lubecooch made your favorite tranny chaser Jimmy quit but it’s time to get over it.

 

[Blackstar]

Are you fucking retarded? There were barely any loobcooch TTS across the whole season, he was obviously protected from it after a single horesock TTS sent him running to the basement.

 

[The Tall Man]

You misspelled convinced.

 

[Jobama]

Are you fucking retarded? There were barely any loobcooch TTS across the whole season, he was obviously protected from it after a single horesock TTS sent him running to the basement.

Is there any proof that they censored lubecooch TTS? I’ve heard people make all sort of baseless claims regarding censored TTS like that Shinji had negative TTS blocked or that Tayleigh had positive TTS blocked. Besides, if production had wanted to protect TJ from lubecooch messages why would they have Frank and everyone else constantly bring it up? That one therapy session with Frank was essentially a lubecooch interrogation.

You misspelled convinced.

You’re right. It would be better to classify what production did as convincing rather than coddling. I accept your concession of everything else though.

Get that ugly, disabled freak away from me. I don't want to look at its fucked up face! His smooshed up, baby, disabled face.

I don't want to LOOK AT IT.

TJ's LubeCooch account was one of the biggest and most talked about discoveries of the season. To think that no-one would want to send TTS about it is delusional.

There were a lot of them, so much so Frank brought it up and pressed TJ about it.
maybe they were being censored in the fact sending the same thing over and over got in the way of the good TTS like circumflex circumflex circumflex circumflex circumflex circumflex circumflex circumflex circumflex circumflex circumflex circumflex circumflex circumflex

 

[Alizarin Crimson]

There were a lot of them, so much so Frank brought it up and pressed TJ about it.

Almost none of them were in the week or two after it was initially discovered and he ran to the basement. They only started properly pressing him on it and allowing them through much later on.

[Halloween23]

Fishtank is a social game

This is part of the problem. We were pitched Fishtank as being "HELL HOUSE" and with that you would think that the meanest, toughest, most entertaining person would win. Shouldn't the entire fucking point of Fishtank be to make people hate you and harass them so much that they quit? Instead the meta has emerged that doing that will get you to the finals but ultimately you'll get cucked because the fans will be butthurt and (((Goldstriker)))) doesn't want to get chargebacks if someone the fanboys doesn't like wins.
