  • 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

Well I mean it has hundreds of thousands of fans, so you are going to get a bit of all sorts with those numbers. Plus most rational and normal people do not have the time, or the will to stream themselves like this with the hope of going on a big brother style show at the end of it, they have lives. So you are cutting those fans off. The requirements are selecting only the truly unhinged and homebound types to participate in this, so its going to be loons of some sort.

I meant more along the lines of the show/its fans being openly antagonistic to those kinds of people in the first place. I guess it's not unsurprising that pick-me trannies would exist, and goes a ways towards explaining all the "hehe I only have an OnlyFans ironically" trannies I saw in the FT discords + their "ironic" orbiters.

Remember the Mauro-Lance beef a month or two ago? Mauro's still agitated :story:

I don't see why Mauro would still be hanging on to Fishtank. It is a little interesting how strong a lot of participants are holding on to it.

It's their only claim to fame. Without Fishtank and its community they have nothing else and must stick to it to stay in the spotlight.
 
I gotta say TTS & SFX token prizes have been surprisingly fair if you wanted to have some "fun".
using the stat's on Fishtank.observer with the token to $ ratio of maejok-tools (0.0828$) that's an easy 20k over the last 7 days currently (and day 4 only just started).

over night and this morning new toys have been added to the site for "relatively" cheap for the "power" they got.

they are also tweaking the formula still:

this resulted in VanceVictim getting on top of the board despite only hovering between 10-30 people but he was also one of the first ones streaming on there and hasn't logged off once.
1740839422902.png


this has now again changed with everyone getting more points overall. I assume this is to nerf the toys they just added?

vecmen jumped right into the charts by destroying pretty much everything he's got. his doing this for "us" he says.









meanwhile piss pool replicators struggled to get more than 10 viewers...
 
Vecmen came out of nowhere to second place while I was asleep, and not one post recapping it itt? :lossmanjack:

The above was written over an hour ago but the site went down and I had to go do stuff so that screenshot is out of date.

But fear not, I went to Twitter and found some clips. I don't know if this is the correct order but it still shows what makes a streamer popular on Stream Stars. Broken glass and screaming.

Vecmen set up a tent in a room in his house and destroyed everything while on roller skates. Smashing doors is a strategy I would recommend to all potential Stream Stars, you can buy interior doors without handles at Home Depot for like 40 bucks a pop and they break real good. Just spend a couple hundred dollars and you have hours of being the top streamer.

Huffing fire extinguisher fumes. I can't find a clip of him actually spraying the extinguisher though.
It's clear by now the meta strategy for Stream Stars is pretty much the Big Brother "Gamer" strategy. Last year, AB put out this video analyzing the BB strategies and how they translate to Fishtank. One of the strategies touched on, that AB believes could be extremely powerful in the right hands, is the "Gamer" strategy which to put it simply is "be entertaining." While Yoobles was waiting for his gf to come back from the store with laxatives and rum last night, he went on a 30 minute+ rant about how the other streamers are boring faggots and he's the only one who deserves to be on Fishtank. Vecmen did the same sort of rant last night too. That kind of speech is emblematic of Gamers, and the actions of both Yoobles and Vecmen (and other streamers such as Mediaconsumer and Vancevictim2018) are clearly of the "I want to be entertaining, I am going to put serious effort into being entertaining and come up with creative ways to be entertaining" variety. Some people (imbeciles) question the longevity of these guys, as you obviously can't destroy a house for 6 weeks straight without getting boring, but they miss the forest for the trees. It's not about "can you smash a lot of shit," it's about having the mentality to be entertaining that people like Yoobles and Vecmen clearly have. There are a lot of factors in Fishtank proper that weigh in on this that we'll never truly know how they can affect the contestants until they're on the show, but these guys display a clear willingness to be creative and engaging and their viewership numbers, points and popularity reflect that.

To cap off my point, here's a screenshot of Vancevictim2018 just a few minutes ago reacting to an air raid siren SFX by cowering under the desk he built the other day and screaming for mercy. This type of audience engagement is exactly what the wiggers are looking for.

Foot lettuce guy is carving "I'm Foot Lettuce" into his wall with a claw hammer, without eye protection, and got chunks of drywall in his eye. :story:
ow my eye.png
Vecmen has apparent real concrete plans, mentioning an "investor" and his own "production" and "sharks." He was cleaning earlier and mentioned this.
vecmen.png
Right now he's critiquing other streamers, like Texas-Toasted. She's a new streamer who just joined today, doing lazy simpbaiting mostly. He's critiquing her stream.
shit talking.png
Now he's pulled up foot lettuce guy and is commenting on him. Nothing exciting but it shows he's engaged with other streamers to generate content through beef.

With sneed chat down at the moment I'm going to ask my question here. Does anyone have an idea of how they approve who gets to stream? At least 3/4 of these fans are complete nontent and are at least under 5 viewers.

edit: spelling

edit: I've been trying to get on for the weekend because why not.

If you have a season pass you can stream. I got one of the gifted passes and have this:

I guess they just chuck random people who stream themselves onto the site to see if they make content. Throwing darts at the wall to see what sticks.
 
Burger King foot lettuce guy is using oatmeal as glue to put lettuce spelling out "I'm Burger King Foot Lettuce" on his walls, in channels he chipped out with a claw hammer.

He told the story, which tl;dr:
>got a job at BK right out of high school with some buddies
>they goofed around every day
>one day he's prepping lettuce and decides to stand in it for laughs, one of his buddies takes the picture
>throws the lettuce out right after
>2 days later the buddy who took the picture calls him at midnight panicking because he posted it on 4chan and the restaurant got doxed etc.
>decides to not come back to work
>picks up his check a week and a half later and nobody there wants to make eye contact
>moves on with his life
>decides to cash in and become an eceleb just this year

I don't think it's gonna work out for him. Yoobles sent a TTS earlier accusing him of stolen valor for destroying a door.

The people who apply to Fishtank aren’t normal. Once they get that dose of minor fame they get addicted. They feel like they’re apart of something greater, even if they’re boring. It’s very rare for a previous contestant to break the cycle. Production can spit in their face directly, and while the Fish might make a big deal out of it in the moment, they will always come back for more. It’s very sad, and a big reason why nobody should apply for Fishtank. You will regret it, and you will still come back to be abused.
 
lmao he's already been assauled by Frank and Bunnies and tied up. Now he has to crawl like this to his destination while Frank smacks him with an electric fly swatter.

Kino is back on the menu. I can already tell that Frank is going to go too far and make Greg cry at some point. Also the director cam is already better than fishtank. It switches fast as hell.
 
I remember that part of the original HELL HOUSE vision was that you get a bunch of dumb rich kids who want to be famous and mess with them. Not sure how rich these people are, but they sure want to be famous. It's kind of hard to watch.
 
There seem to be 3 male and one female bunny, and frank. Already more production than ADL. The audio seems to only come from a karaoke microphone that Greg has to carry with himself everywhere with a very long cord lmao.
