 		I don't see how "Can I get answers now?" "Okay, wait for me to come back and reveal the things I've vaguely been alluding to" would work as an ending anyway.

 		I had a dream about EMH last night.

Vinnie walked up to HABIT, said something, and HABIT started chasing him.

 		Probably asked why the guests are taking 3 months to show up.

 		Pardon me as I step up on the soapbox here for a moment:

This series can go **** its face. Initially they have tons of characters involved and multiple storylines including a Habit sideshow contest. Now it can't post a video within 3-4 months, and the only characters still involved are Evan and Vinny. If you don't have the time or energy to keep this going-end it. Tribe Twelve takes a few months per video but the effort put into it are worth it. It's a farce they wanted THEIR fans to spend so much time and devotion on their story then they decide "oh hey its not really important to us anymore". So now you're getting called out on it.

Take your rip off Gollum/Masky (Rake) storyline and shove it. I'm sick of the circles your plot goes around. At this point your storyline has gone around so many times you're literally kicking yourself in your own ass.

/end rant

In all seriousness I liked this series, but they really piss me off when they discard it like they have.

There's obviously an explanation for this delay, so there's nothing to have a tantrum over.

I have to disagree with your defense of this series. Let's say that there is a reasonable explanation for the delay. Ok, that's fine. The only thing is, they have OOG accounts, and they have yet to mention any reason for a delay. I know they had technical issues, but that was before their latest two videos. I'm sure they fixed it by now, and if they didn't, it would be nice to have some form of an update. The delay isn't the problem. It's their severe lack of acknowledging a delay that pisses me, sp103, and many other people off.

 		There is an explanation.

See, there's an upcoming TT crossover, and they're waiting on Adam to release his content before the next EMH video. He says that he'll try to get it up on Halloween. Expect another EMH shortly after that.

So, the delays are because of Adam. Although I don't blame him, his special effects are pretty complex and he's all by himself in this. And he has college.

I doubt they've dropped it, considering all the work they've put into it and the fact that they're one of the most popular ARGs out there.

Also, Rake is actually something they took out of another mythos called the FEAR mythos, originating from a creepypasta story. I'm actually happy they took from this mythos since you just don't see enough good video-based ARGs for it.

The least they can do is tell their fans on their OOG accounts, then.

Ahh yes, the crossover.

I agree. I think they like to keep it a "surprise" though. Its getting a little frustrating with all these huge time gaps. As of today, it has been three months since the last update.

Actually, Everyman HYBRID used the Rake before the Fear Mythos existed. Those mythos were inspired by the already-existing crossover of Slender Man and the Rake.

Ah, I didn't know that. I thought the blogs and vlogs that featured the fears had taken them from an already existing mythos.

Of course, if I'm not mistaken, the creepypasta had to have come first, yes?

 		Glad to see my rant didn't ignite a shitstorm of anger here. It was 50/50 serious and a stab at them.

On the seriousness part It does irk the living crap out of me that they start something so serious, so involved but now can barely post a video. Excuses don't work-especially when your not posting videos like Tribe Twelve does with a boatload of special effects. My baseline argument is if YOU don't give two shits about it anymore-we won't either. Marble hornets (the series, you know, that YOU COPIED at first) is still posting videos on a regular basis.

You can't.

I'd just like to point out that if you think EverymanHYBRID "copied" Marble Hornets in the beginning, just look at TribeTwelve's beginning, which you seem to be a fan of.

And why are you talking to us? Shouldn't you send a message to one of their OOG Tumblrs or something?

EMH actually cares A LOT. Just because they're having production problems doesn't mean they don't care. Sure, there's less special effects, but look at the acting! The acting is amazing (well, Evan does overact from time to time...), and you can't get that right on the first try. The story is a great one--you can tell they put effort into it. The acting is far better than TribeTwelve's. And Marble Hornets also has big gaps in time. People thought the series was dead after season one!

I don't like the delays, either. They get me a little annoyed. They probably should've done the "seasons" strategy like in Marble Hornets. But I don't want to rush the creators. They're good people. They enjoy doing their work. They work very hard. They have lives beyond the internet. I respect them; they're more than just humanoid machines for turning out entertainment so you can enjoy it.

You have the right to your opinion. But if they read this, with a fan shouting nasty words at them, do you really think they would want to make more content for an audience like that?

That's my problem with them. They created a storyline with blogs, a ton of characters, some stupid Habit contest etc etc. My main point is they created a basic slenderman story (which was great-teasing the slenderman then he appears-aweome!). Then they decide to go all in depth, making the series literally unwatchable because they take their storyline SO SERIOUS for a short time people like me get turned off by the complexity of it.
Now, they can BARELY, and i mean BARELY post a video. I'm not asking it to be Tribe Twelve quality, hell Tribe Twelve is just as confusing as EMH was a year ago. I still don't get the full storyline of TT. But he posts videos, and shit-they are good. I can't get mad at quality over quantity. EMH is just two characters now, per THEIR storyline, posting a video every 4-6 months.

Sorry if calling them out is wrong-But i don't see them caring at all. I'm not going to go after them on OOG twitters/facebook/instagram accounts. That's just Sheldon Cooper nerd style. I don't give a crap if they don't like being called out on Unficiton.com.
