it's not always there
You're using the youtube player rather than the site player.

Yes I am. doesn't really fix the problem
are you implying there is a choice in the matter
should I have been more concise myself?
"allow us to use the site player instead of the youtube player or some other method to allow fill browser or riot"

Dropping in some of that hot #content for anyone that's interested. It took way longer than I expected it to take to merge the two clips together and then upload the entire thing. Had to leave my laptop open overnight.

It is not on the schedule but UPF is a sure thing. Look forward to UPF.
They are probably going to waste their time on dvd commentary stuff.
Saw some people talking about gb's site design. I made a site last year to teach myself some stuff and fix problems I had seeking out content on the official site. It's far from perfect and there's a lot of stuff I've wanted to improve, but it's still up for now at gbomb.club if anyone wants to try it.
Technical stuff: I built it mostly using php/knockout, and I've almost completely moved on to node/react now. My own coding has improved a lot since that project, and it's a complete pain to go back to it when I need to update/fix anything, so I'll probably be porting it in the near future. For example, a minor thing like appending slugs to episode urls would just take too much time to go back and implement now, whereas if I built it the way I do things now, it would be much more straightforward and manageable.
As for gb's official site: I don't know if they've talked about redesigning it, but it seems like such a massive undertaking because there are so many parts to it. IIRC, the current site is the redesign they did when they had to start from scratch after the sale of their development stuff to bermanbraun. I think they had a deadline (a year?) to complete it by, which probably didn't leave much room for a lot more than a port of the old site with a visual redesign and some enhancements.

do you post questions in other threads that can easily be solved by clicking around the respective UI too?

That's a pretty cool site! Does the game list (for example in the Disney collection QL) come from the API or do you add it manually?
I'd prefer the GB video player to just load automatically when I click on a video since it doesn't autoplay anyway. Now I need to click on a video, click GB and then click play on the embedded video.

Nahh, Brad unlocked his potential with his cool haircut. I still can't get over how good it looks.
Wish I was adventurous enough to change my hairstyle like that.

Hey that job interview I fell on my ass after I left the building. I totally got the offer!
Even though I have Horizon to finish, Persona 5 to start, FF15 to go back to, Bayonetta on PC to try..... should I buy a switch and zelda to celebrate?

I mean you got to get used to your job depleting your time being able to play all these games while you continue to buy them.
So why not.
Thanks. Games/staff/guests are all added/attached manually via an editor interface I can pull up for whatever episode I've selected. Unless they've changed the api since I setup my site to pull from it, they unfortunately don't have that sort of data associated with their content.
I could have sworn the gb embed used to autostart like the youtube embed, but you're right it now requires an unnecessary extra click. Having it start immediately upon opening an episode would be nice to have as a setting (like: check a box to remember I always want to play the gb embed straight away), but that would require some work to update. It's a little complicated because in a lot of cases there are two ways to play a video: gb embed or youtube embed, and in the case of video bombcasts, there's 3: the gb embed, the youtube embed, and the premium gb embed. It wouldn't be impossible to set it up to work in an order of preference or something, but like I said it would be a pain to go back an implement that now. If I do end up porting the site that's definitely something I'd try and do.
Congrats!
Are you starting on today's bombcast?
And sure, why not buy another thing you won't have time to play? Worked for me!
Wait...

Over a third of the way through and they haven't even started playing. Saying that less for the slow start and more for how short a game of this is.
It probably was the falling on your ass that helped. Just keep that in mind for the future. Congratulations.
That is something better to look forward to than death I guess.

Dang this is fantastic! You (and qlcrew) basically made GB into a Netflix style site faster than GB did. AWESOME!

How much experience did you have before you made that?
Yeah. Dan's arguments make total Dan sense. Expected much worse after reading some posts here.

Also it's not like he's instigating it to do a Dan troll, he probably wouldn't have talked about it if Vinny didn't ask.

Yeah, you shouldn't have to justify why you aren't interested in something. For example I love A.I. stories and Platinum made games but in reality the only award Neir: Automata wins is 2017 biggest disappointment in my book.
wtf
/edit i know even questinoning this goes against the exact first sentence of your post lol

Trying to debate narrative tastes with a man who thinks that Metal Gear Solid is literally the greatest story mankind has ever told seems like a bit of a fool's errand to me, if I'm honest.
