I just love how every dude has their shirt off, reminds me of gibby from icarly. an
non production fabricated arcs
but it was, production crafted everyone's personas like some cheesy murder mystery
My ONLY worry is that they'll have trouble getting contestants who don't know about fishtank
lol, i assure you despite being big in this sector and 4chan. literally all of the population that isn't part of our realm doesn't know about this show.
. But I can't imagine niggas who think they are on Big Brother putting up with this lol
thats my only main worry, the types of people that use casting agencies aren't the type to put up with this shit. its an entirely different personality and skill set. from the first TTS racial slur they'll be gone. 90% of people that would be fine being in a shitty reality show have the social awareness to not get tricked into stuff like this or understand why its bad and they'd need to leave immediately . there's a reason there's an entire porn genre revolving around tricking women into fucking, and while the scenes are fake they're based on a very real thing that happens.
because I didn't think they'd be legit about how much money he was making.
honestly if i was getting paid that little to live in the woods for 9 days i wouldn't do it, unless i really liked the other people i'd be hanging with. like anyone working at a fireworks stand the last 2 weeks made that much money and got to go home at the end of their shift.
free room, free food, free booze,
the room isn't that good and neither is the food. the booze and cigs for free would really alter the equation for me. but thats because there were days in the summer at the lake where i'd knock out a half a carton and a handle in a weekend.
got 15k live viewers
Metokur gets that every time he streams, the killstream got that one time awhile back. not seeing any media reports about them either. its not 2015 anymore pal, a mid woman playing chess can break 15k live viewers.
but Betty is apologizing again
Betty is a perfect case example of someone who's life would be cured by becoming sex worker. all that attention plus a reason to get naked and masturbate and she'd get money from it too! this isn't even me bullshitting, quite a few bpd sexual weirdos have said sex work is a life saver because they can get out their sexual needs and get attention and then put down the phone and live a normal life.

pretty crazy for Contra and Sam Hyde's dads both work at the same university, you think any other lolcow parents teach there? wild if Janke's dad did
 
I don't know what it is but I stopped caring about this season that much. I'll have it up sometimes as white noise but there's zero investment in anything going on, it's just people hanging out and listening to Jimmy sperg mostly.

History is repeating itself. Content maker is off the show, Sam starts breaking character and hanging around, artificial love arc is created. I genuinely believe the only thing that could carry the show is NPC's at this point. Not a bad season, even the worse days have had things going for them.

Day 9 has been a slog. No Xavier and no Jon clearly has an effect on content output. At least Vance is kind of becoming visible.

Season 2.5 is pretty experimental so at leas Sam is learning what works and what doesn't content wise.

I was enjoying it, but no one except NPCs are really roleplaying. Plus Xavier's questline with Tayleigh got thrown off and out, the remaining goals aren't obvious for viewers that can't be glued to this 24/7, the overarching storyline feels ditched and forgotten. It has fun moments but it's fallen apart. Xavier should return tomorrow and hopefully gets things back on the rails even a little, because Jimmy doing his monologues and sexpesting is awful and without Jon, Jet, or Sam around he won't ever fucking stop it.

Yeah, regardless of the 'storyline' it's still entertaining enough on a base level just to see what they're up to. The Retard Fight arc was kind of the climax anyway, I didn't think anything was going to top that. Jon can't stand getting mogged more than once.
 
The fish just got burned out and are going through the motions until the end because they correctly observed that production has largely given up and transitioned into the "Smash it" mindset. These are seasoned fish who have been through seasonal collapses before so they're just going to do whatever they find entertaining and hang out with their friends. It was predicted that the larp would become tiresome after several days and right around day 5-7 is exactly where the show started to derail.
Honestly the problem is that Production let their pet Wetard break the game for over a week and constantly caved to his bullshit. I don't think they have enough time to bring it back at this point.

Ever since the dyke flipped out it's sucked.

The last two days have been a struggle. I am so sick of Jimmy and Tayleigh.
 
I feel like all of the fish are just bored at this point and want to go home. Since they got paid flat appearance fees there's really no reason for them to give a shit about defeating the Duke.

Actually, this is a big part of it. They let their own show get derailed by a literal retard they had to baby daily and it became The Jon Show featuring .... instead of anything else and now that he's decided to move on and got rewarded for doing so they seem at a loss of what to do. Overall, it's a recurring theme they lean too hard into and considering Sam asked Jon if he'd be on season 3, I expect more of the same.

Alpha male Jon is a retarded minstrel with a speech impediment, brought on to make money for people that pretend to be his friends.

I'm in the same boat. I was watching religiously for the first week but now I have only watched a little bit in the last few days and mostly just stuck to keeping up in the thread. It's a shame because I do still genuinely believe this is the best season that they've had, but there is like 1-2 things happening a day at most now and the rest of the time they're just sitting around listening to TTS and hanging out. It's gone from non stop kino genuine entertainment straight to the doldrums of the end of season 2.

All they had to do was keep the lore stuff going for 2 weeks, but it looks like a week is the best they can do. Even with the contestants burning out, production still could have easily kept up with stuff for them to do. But when it's just the same vampire attacks over and over again everyone involved is going to start phoning it in. It also doesn't help that it seems like whenever a fight goes horribly wrong for the fish and they are downed, production quickly interjects and resets the fight or bails them out in some manner, meaning there are no stakes and therefore no investment from the fish. I don't think production would ever let one of the fish die before the end of the show - and Jon is only gone because he sperged out.
