Much exclusive news, everyone!

Jeez, I haven't updated this in a while, have I? Alrighty, well I figure quite a bit of thoughts have been going through my head and you, the cool fans who read the blog deserve to get in on some more neato exclusive information and news and shit! Whoo!

So since late January, I pretty much got laid off the site I was working and have been playing it by ear on a new one. It's been a month now and it gave me the free time to get a lot of Machinima work done, as well as finally being able to hang out with some friends again, rather than my work schedule fucking me in the ass 6 days 'til Sunday. With that time again, I was able to finish GIB 8, finish the intro and 2 skits for GIB 9 and work on the 100,000 sub milestone which should hopefully be done within the week.

Originally, the milestone video was going to be a little gag piece called "A Day in the Life of Dr. Hax." The video was going to be about ... well ... yeah, a day in his life where he reacts to everyday stuff like grocery shopping and whatnot, the angry way. Of course, the only reason I thought of doing a video like that is because many fans whined a whole lot about Dr. Hax not getting his own skit in GIB 8. Then I realized why I had kept using Dr. Hax. It's not because I liked him, no sir, it's because the fans adored him. As for me, I'd like to set the record straight ...

... I do not like using Dr. Hax that often. He is a one-dimmentional character with one line and one function that should not be getting THIS many skits of his own and the only reason I use him as much as I did was because the fans demanded him. His 0.5 second appearance in GIB 8 was supposed to send that message across. Alas, it seems nobody even SAW him and just said, "Wut, no hax?"

So not only is Dr. Hax one of those characters that should keep his appearances entirely "cameo" timeframe wise, I thought about the video idea more and I realized people were probably going to be doing a whole lot of skipping of many portions of the video to get to the good parts after seeing it the first time. In other words, the idea was a slightly amusing one at best, which would not withstand audience attention well enough to deserve it's own video.

Instead, the milestone video came to me in the form of a private message, one of many that has repeatedly come from a certain hardcore fanbase that grow increasingly irritating with their whiney demands. I'm not going to spoil too much, as the private message will be posted in the video description of the upcoming video, but let's just say, not only will this be a fimiliar funny, over-the-top video, but it's also a great big "WHAT-EVUH, I'LL DO WHAT I WANT!" to that particular hardcore fanbase that has whined far enough.

Aaaaand finally, I remember back then, I planned on doing a Gmod Arena called "Jack Thompson VS Uwe Boll" but as time went on, I realized that really isn't going to work out for two reasons. One is, Jack Thompson was disbarred from being an attourney at all years ago, so it would be like beating a dead horse. The biggest reason however, is barely anyone knows who Jack Thompson or Uwe Boll is, ESPECIALLY not Jack Thompson. Since Uwe Boll is pretty much better known and is impossible to like, viewers will just go into the video thinking, "I just hope Uwe Boll dies is all." But I'll tell you what ... I'll leave that descision up to you guys with a poll. Should I make that video next, or forget about it and just use that time to stick with the other upcoming projects? The choice be yours, dawgs!

Okay! That about covers everything! Once again, thanks for being the cool fans and reading the blog posts! Hopefully I don't neglect the blog that long again. That was mean ... sorry blog! D8
