Support NeoGAF

[Hasney]

Zelda, yes.

Now Damiani is partly on board, I hope he does something with EZA for Zelda U's release.

I'm really hyped for Fridays 7.8 redemption stream.

 

[Mikey Jr.]

Let's not forget that Twitch gets 50% of the $5 subscription fee. So even if they have 300+ subs, that's only $750/mo. For a 7 person company, that's not much. It'll definitely be used for gear and such, but it's definitely not a "ton of money".

Ohh right.

Damn, twitch is a waste of money, lol.

 

[ElephantShell]

Fuck, have to go to class right when Zelda is starting.

 

[MultiJhonny]

Can anyone explain what "Easy Allies" is supposed to denote?

Uneasy Alliances is something that Huber loves to talk about and it came from that.

uneasy alliances are people who are allies but there is tension lol

 

[Hasney]

Can anyone explain what "Easy Allies" is supposed to denote?

One of Huber's common saying is about an Uneasy Alliance. This is the opposite of that.

 

[MultiJhonny]

SFV tourney is confirmed for next up

 

[Hasney]

Going to bed. Just looked at the live chat like this:

Since streaming times mean I won't see it again!

 

[MisterCTwo]

I've been watching for a few hours now. Really enjoying seeing them again. I just subscribed on Twitch. Super hyped!

 

[sora87]

Ohh right.

Damn, twitch is a waste of money, lol.

Yeah, I'm happy just supporting them on patreon

 

[Japanmanx3]

Ordered pizza. Ready to keep it going.

 

[Orthogonal]

I had no idea Twich had such a high cut of subscriptions. Surprised that a competitor hasnt capitalized with a more reasonable rate.

 

[Hasney]

Just to give another metric of successful hype, it took a month to get this many posts in the GT OT.

 

[Dineren]

Considering how quickly they got their sub button it's possible they worked out a better deal on the subscription split with Twitch. I know the more popular streams get slightly more of the subscription than others. No idea if Twitch would consider that for a new venture though.

 

[EdReedFan20]

Have they given a name to their version of GT Time? If not, how does EZ Time sound?

 

[Lexad]

The funds slowed down considerably since right before the stream started

 

[Static Veins]

It's just going to be called the "Easy Allies podcast". Chat suggested "EZ Time" earlier in the stream but Kyle said while it sounds good it won't be used for branding reasons.

 

[Hasney]

Yeah, it was always likely or they'd be close to the highest gaming Patreon of all time. Wonder if there will be another bump when people finish work, then when the stream ends as people think "yeah, I'll support this" and a final one for the week after the podcast. WE SHALL SEE.

 

[Japanmanx3]

lol that song

 

[ilium]

WIR TANZEN IM VIERECK

[MultiJhonny]

The german efficiency!

 

[Static Veins]

"This looks like barf!" - Kyle on Twilight Princess

To which a member in chat responds:

"'This looks like barf!' - Kyle's mom when he was born"

 

[Mikey Jr.]

So apparently the archiving wasn't on...

 

[Zomba13]

Kyle isn't wrong about TP and Borderlands.

 

[wiibomb]

oh boy....

I'm sorry for all of those who couldn't watch the stream prior to this.. the archive option wasn't on, so basically, it's already lost

 

[AgentChris]

So apparently the archiving wasn't on...

Was Ian running the show? He always does that. Hopefully someone archived it for us.

 

[Already Torn]

oh boy....

I'm sorry for all of those who couldn't watch the stream prior to this.. the archive option wasn't on, so basically, it's already lost

At least there's gonna be more, unlike last time

 

[Static Veins]

At least the remaining 8.5 hours will be archived.

 

[J-Skee]

Someone in here said they would archive it just in case, right?

 

[MultiJhonny]

Someone in here said they would archive it just in case, right?

Yeah they did lol

 

[soultron]

Anyone else finding the Twitch stream very choppy/constantly buffering? Wondering if it's just me.

I backed on Patreon. Really excited to see the gang continuing to pursue the dream.

 

[MultiJhonny]

Coach Bosman right now hahaa

 

[Static Veins]

LOL @ Coach Bosman training up Blood ready for the Street Fighter tournament.

Watched the stream at Source and think it buffered once in the 3 hours I was watching.

Lol saddest post of all time.

Chat gets archived now too.

 

[Napalm_Frank]

Does Patreon charge people immediately for the first month or can we expect a bunch of people withdraw their support just before a certain date?

 

[Alucrid]

edit: wait, bosman picked mika? kyle the best then

 

[Ray Down]

Chat gets archived now too.

Good.

 

[MultiJhonny]

They charge the 1st of every month so no not for another 10 days

 

[Napalm_Frank]

Here's hoping it stays above 20k.

 

[Deputy Dangle]

He's leaning back! The absolute madman.

 

[sora87]

NOOOOO the jones zone crashed out that was some Evo shit right there

 

[Japanmanx3]

The popoffs lol

 

[Mikey Jr.]

Seems like this is going to cap at about 23k which everyone should be super proud about.

I honest to God thought it would top at 15k. Never thought they would gain another 8k.

Plus some twitch money in there. Good stuff.

It could easily go up throughout the months though. With the help of sponsors and stuff too it can really go places. This first day has been a huge statement that we want them and people will notice.

 

[HylianScribe]

I think that every single one of us who started streaming since GT's closure on new channels forgot to turn on archiving. I feel like Twitch should just set that to "yes" by default and make users opt out rather than opt in.

Yea, things take time to build. It's a better start than I imagined.

 

[Roberto Larcos]

They should really be taking advantage of the huge views / hype right now by making it easy for people to donate on Twitch. Honestly I bet they've lost out on literally thousands of dollars already.

Probably saves data overheads per user for Twitch if it's an opt-in rather than opt-out feature.

 

[Mikey Jr.]

436 subs on twitch.

The Patreon funding cost breakdown link in the OP doesn't work.
