I get the impression he's a fag doing a half bruce springsteen half morgan freeman impression. It's more obvious if you remove the lower half of the notched spectrum entirely.

Then he cuts out the frequencies that make the vocal fry most obvious (the frequency range humans tend to be most sensitive to overall...) and occasionally says things breathily like "a bit too much about computers". You can hear him slip out of the fry at times like when he giddilly calls himself a "big nerd" and his normal voice comes out.

This whole podcast just reek of soy faggot energy. Wasn't this also his bullshit FBI story as well?

>four days
a lil optimistic but I love the spirit. We'll be lucky if we get there in the full 30 days.

What we really need more than anything is hype. Assuming there are bad actors (mald) trying to flood it with fake petitions to make it fall short so people stop signing the petition. We need more than 1 million so trying to keep spirits high and send a message by raising awareness. This is the best course of action. The absolute best outcome is that it blows the initial goal out of the water to rub salt in the wounds even more.


I have to type like a dry husk to stay anon.

Never thought I'd see another Mangs fan on the farms. I find it very funny that even mentioning his name on the advance wars subreddit will get your message deleted cuz hes an alt right chud or something. He also thinks wargroove sucks which is also a plus.

Mangs was accused of SAing some random chick but completely BTFO'd an entire group of strategy game youtubers with proof. Probably still some sour grapes.

Your code shows nothing when I scan it buddy.

Heres a QR that goes DIRECT to the EU initiative.

This is so wrong! Mine works for me and also works if you scan it with google images/bing/etc...
This is rigged bullshit! FUCKING RIGGED!!!! a working QR code is due!

I had spare ad credits and wanted to play with it to see what happens.

For the record, no relation to Ross, no relation to any of his campaigns, this is something I did mostly because I can, I want to, and I like experimenting.

Coincidentally, Ross has lived in Poland for a very long time. Has your whim got something to do with it?

If memory serves, Ross moved there to meet his girlfriend at the time, currently his wife, before deciding to settle in Poland due to the cost of living being so much more affordable than in the US.
This was something he talked about, in his very first request for donations on the Accursed Farms website, to bypass Patreon fees; back when he needed to buy new hardware, in order to produce episodes of Freeman's Mind more expediently.

It's quite the strange, charming case synchronicity, seeing two Farm owners settling in Eastern Europe for a time, motivated by nothing but rampant autism for their respective endeavors.

okay try this one pls:

We can just use what I put. I think the heavily stylized ones work worse, which is why I went for the regular ass lego brick ones.

plus BMJ cat is too sus / kiwi coded. we DO NOT want to advertise this as "THIS IS KIWI CODED". I love KF, everyone else here does too, but we DO NOT want KF branding fucking with this shit.

And stop linking stupid boss man jack shit with QR codes.

No, i just believe that the greatest potential market on X is the Poles, who are underrepresented on the petition and who have a high presence on X. I generally have high affinity for the Poles anyways and they're my first choice for a lot of stuff.

[CryptoHermit]

Yeah I can't fucking stand Mangs, he's not good at the games he purports to be an authority on and Andaron Saga was uneven dogshit with terrible writing.

That said, I'm not about to push away an ally when our interests align.

Is Mangs the Advanced Wars guy? Advanced Wars by Web is awesome btw. Although it's been active so long you have established autismos who never pull their puches and wreck you if you're new.

I just watched his videos where he played the Advance Wars games without losing a single unit and he did that, so that's all I know about his skill level.

I think you could probably get it for 20 depending on who, but kirshe already has supported it plenty.

We ideally want to penetrate euro markets. IE if you saw a streamer in euro area italy poland ect with thousands of views, THAT would be a good dono target.

REMEMBER especially when spending money goes, you want to inform EUROS. we could have 2 hour informercial in america but it would do fuck all if only americans watch.

Yeah, I just specifically saw Gura's redebut that got up to 200,000 live viewers, surely some of that must be Euros.

You can tell vx isn't chatgpt just because he uses emdashes incorrectly—you're not supposed to surround it with spaces.
But yes, using correct fucking punctuation has become a sign you're AI and it's incredibly annoying.

yeah but also idk if she would take the time.

I recall the burger king twitch ad fiasco, and they were INSANELY successful with the following strategy.

-find streamers who have automatic bit announcements
-buy the minimum amount for TTS
-TTS blares "BUY THE NEW HOT AND SMOKEY DOUBLE BURGER AT BURGER KING FOR 6.99" or whatever the fuck
-they spent like 50k but had the success of spending 500k on ads since they basically paid maybe 5 bucks an ad tops.

If you REALLY wanted to go that route, I'd recommend that. But I also think a lot of people you wouldn't need to be THAT obtuse, and just asking would work.

if you CAN make it work with gura, whatever, I can't and won't stop you, but getting her to do it is the challenge

Basically the military adage, if its a stupid idea, and it works, its not stupid.

Well I certainly don't want to waste a hundred dollars if it's unlikely to work. So maybe I'll rethink.

 

[The ATF Disliked That]

I'd also email the shit out of them as well, but donations will usally get immediate attention of them to put them on the spot. A good strategy might be to reach out to political ones who are against "You'll Own Nothing, and Be Happy" WEF bullshit, because the principle of StopKillingGames is very much about fighting that. It's not just videogames, it's a consumer rights issue. That might be able to get some non-gamers who will agree with the campaign's underlying principle.

 

[Large Rodent]

Funnily enough it appears Mald's negative coverage and the subsequent backlash was the best and most effective PR you could ask for for Ross and his movement. Ha-ha. Eat a dick, corpo. 1,000 years in the game dungeon.

Well, before its growth got shut down, null's xeet calling Mold a faggot got more engagement than iirc any of his other posts. Maybe that's the trick? Instead of "corpos want to take away your games, don't let them", go with "this FURRY FAGGOT will be happy if you DO NOTHING, make him want to KILL HIMSELF by signing a petition!".

 

[Hooked on phobics]

Well I certainly don't want to waste a hundred dollars if it's unlikely to work. So maybe I'll rethink.

my thinking if this were REALLY to be done....

1: scout out decent sized foreign streamers who have bit notifications
2: get the international clique section of KF to translate some generic SKG message asking for petitions politely in german, french, italian, polish, ect (like : Hey, have you heard of stop killing games? They are gathering signatures from EU citizens like you to hopefully stop developers from destroying games after you buy them)
3: message them messages about SKG with bitty donation

Reason is these guys would likely have citizen viewers, and so it would be concentrated success. especially for italy

The official response from the Britbong Parliament is promising:

(TLDR - No plans to change anything, sellers must obey consumer law, issue will be monitored and CMA work/decisions will be considered).

Basically, they'll tell Jason 'no, stalker child, not here'.

https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/702074/

Archive: https://archive.ph/qMXSJ

'There are no plans to amend UK consumer law on disabling video games. Those selling games must comply with existing requirements in consumer law and we will continue to monitor this issue.

The Government recognises concerns raised by video games users regarding the operability of purchased products. As the lead department for video games, the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) regularly engages industry representatives and monitors how consumers interact with games. We work with the Department for Business and Trade (DBT) as the lead department for consumer protection more generally.

We are aware of issues relating to the life-span of digital content, including video games, and we appreciate the concerns of players of some games that have been discontinued. We have no plans to amend existing consumer law on digital obsolescence, but we will monitor this issue and consider the relevant work of the Competition and Market Authority (CMA) on consumer rights and consumer detriment.

Video games sellers must comply with existing consumer law – this includes the Consumer Rights Act 2015 (CRA) and Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008 (CPRs). We have provided details of relevant protections below. However, there is no requirement in UK law for software companies to support older versions of their products. Decision-making is for those companies, taking account of commercial and regulatory factors and complying with existing consumer law. There may be occasions where companies make decisions based on the high running costs of maintaining older servers for games with declining user bases.

The CRA gives consumers important rights when they make a contract with a trader for the supply of digital content, requiring it to be of satisfactory quality, fit for a particular purpose and as described by the seller. It may be difficult and expensive for businesses to maintain support for old software, particularly if it needs to interact with new technologies. However, if software is offered for sale that is not supported by the provider, then this should be made clear, for example on product webpages and physical packaging.

If digital content does not meet these quality rights, the consumer is entitled to a repair or replacement or, if not possible, some money back up to 100% of the cost of the digital content. These rights apply to intangible digital content like a PC game, as well as tangible content like a physical copy of a game. The CRA has a limit of up to six years after a breach of contract during which a consumer can take legal action.

A trader or third party can upgrade and improve the features of digital content so long as it continues to match any description given by the trader and conforms with any pre-contract information provided by the trader, unless varied by express agreement.

In addition, the CRA requires that the terms and conditions applied by a trader to a product they sell must not be unfair and must be prominent and transparent. If not, they may also be challenged and the question of fairness is a matter for the courts. Terms found to be unfair are not binding on the consumer.

The CPRs require information to consumers to be clear and correct and prohibit commercial practices which through false information or misleading omissions cause the average consumer to make a different choice. As such, the regulations prohibit commercial practices which omit or hide information which the average consumer needs to make an informed choice, and prohibits traders from providing material information in an unclear, unintelligible, ambiguous or untimely manner. If consumers are led to believe that a game will remain playable indefinitely for certain systems, despite the end of physical support, the CPRs may require that the game remains technically feasible (for example, available offline) to play under those circumstances.

The CPRs are enforced by Trading Standards and the CMA. If consumers believe that there has been a breach of these regulations, they should report it to the Citizens Advice helpline (or Advice Direct Scotland for those living in Scotland) which is a free service advising on rights and how to take their case forward. The helplines will refer complaints to Trading Standards and CMA where appropriate. Consumers can also pursue private redress through the courts where a trader has provided misleading information on a product.

The CPRs section of the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers (DMCC) Act 2024 is expected to come into effect in April 2025. It restates and updates the CPRs into primary legislation, revokes the 2008 regulations and sets out rules around unfair trading. The Act:
● Provides the Secretary of State with the power to add, amend, or remove a description of a commercial practice which are in all circumstances considered unfair
● Provides clarification that someone facilitating supply or promotion of a product is a ‘trader’ and must comply with consumer law

The use of this power will be kept under review – any amendments proposed are subject to a duty to consult with stakeholders and approval by both Houses of Parliament.
