Relax, I'm sure it won't be that early.

So everyone breaks even.

Seriously though, I disagree with most of Pravado's statements regarding the show, but the dude's got as much of a right to express his opinion as everyone else. I think most of the problem here is the result of boredom. Only thing I actively dislike about the gaps between entires, we start to eat our own.


I don't think I've ever agreed with Pravado before (if I have, it's been rare) but he brings up an extremely valid point in that the IG timeline could be managed more carefully by the powers that be. It's not hard to not tweet until you know you've got the entry ready to go. I mean, how many times have we been bitten in the ass by an entry delayed by an OOG reason and be force-fed some bogus excuse like "Oh, sorry, I had to change hotels" or "Woke up in my car, wtf happened!??!!111" before Trosephim begin to learn.

That isn't a complaint about the length of the gap, so much as just smart management of the in-game continuum.


This^ completely.

I think TwistedPuppet thinks that we're all just plotting to make Troy speed up the release dates of entries (especially with the rain thing), but that's not what anyone was saying at all...

AND there it is. The reason they should have waited until the Entry was in post production and guaranteed to hit the net within the next few days.

Now we have a "Going this weekend!" tweet, a weird gap, and I guarantee we'll get some awkward IG excuse that just feels 'off' when the entry finally releases.

I wish they'd just have Jay tweet the truth- that the weather has been bad and he and Tim are going to wait to go to the hospital until next weekend. That'll at least be better than having a weird gap again.

I don't recall there being an excuse for the weird week-long gap after saying they were going to Rosswood Park on Sunday.

Fucking East Coast Rain Shit Fucking Blargy Blargy Blargh.

It's been foggy and rainy and shitty for two days where I am and I can only imagine how frustrated Trosephim are considering it all started a day or so after Jay tweets about going out that weekend.

Shitty timing weather, shitty timing.

That's only 96 hours away, minus another 12... Give or take 6 hours.

Well let's see, if I told someone, "let's go to this burned out hospital this weekend" and then it was raining balls and freezing outside, I think I too would not go.

I don't get why everyone gets so pissed about talking about out of game shit.

As if anyone could possibly maintain the illusion of realism with this story let alone the absurd breaks in story.

I could see people getting upset about it for an actual ARG, not for a scripted series.

You know, if Jay and Tim would just hurry up and find the damn Ark, they wouldn't need to worry about filming in the horrible weather...







Cool

Entry #66 is just white-on-black text:

"Tim got tired of me waiting for the weather to get better so I could film the hospital visit."

"He went by himself and found the Ark... and nothing went wrong."

"..."

"Why do bad things only happen when I'm involved? ;_;"

And then the series finale Entry #66.5 is an unboxing video.

It actually is snowy and icy in Alabama. There's a picture of Troy next to a snowman he made on his twitter. https://twitter.com/whatatroy/status/292013698011242497

I couldn't help but feel like snow would be kind of cool in an entry. But maybe not.

Oh yeah - WHAT THE SHIT NO ENTRY UNTIL NEXT WEEK WOW
