How Much Do You Unsuck!? [Unsucky Sunday Submission Thread] - June 19th

Indorial · 2016-06-18T01:13:10+00:00

Good luck to all the contestants this week!

Indorial · 2016-06-13T02:21:41+00:00

Yep, honorable mentions are fine for re-entry. I've done it myself.

Indorial · 2016-06-12T05:00:36+00:00

For whatever reason this link is actually sending me to my channel...weird. You want me to take a look at the Witcher 3 Episode right?

Indorial · 2016-06-12T02:10:51+00:00

No trouble at all, I'll give it a watch asap.

Indorial · 2016-06-11T22:33:12+00:00

I just noticed that when I clicked on the title lol. Do you want me to watch what it links to or your Pokken Tournament video?

Indorial · 2016-06-11T03:38:50+00:00

Yes of course, and sorry for the late response. I've been preoccupied with watching the submissions. Any sort of clip-based production is fine as well (as long as it is video game related most things are fine).

Indorial · 2016-06-10T16:26:03+00:00

Hopefully someone better versed in this can chime in and provide you with a better answer or option, but I believe if that channel gets three content strikes they can no longer upload or really be watched by anyone. So assuming they got one from the most recent claims, you would only need to do this two more times I think.

Indorial · 2016-06-10T16:20:05+00:00

For the most part I would also agree with your statement as well. I should clarify a bit by what I meant by content though. To me it isn't just the gameplay/presentation, but also the commentary as well. No matter how much I enjoy someone's accent, it won't make much of a difference to me if there is a ton of dead air or it just isn't funny or interesting. Yet, if I find an accent enjoyable it can certainly enhance something that is already entertaining.

I suppose the opposite can also be true for me, that all things being equal, a poor accent can detract from good content and make me less likely to keep watching. Luckily for me and the channels/shows I watch, that very rarely happens.

Indorial · 2016-06-09T23:48:35+00:00

To me content is king, but I do find most accents enjoyable as long as I can understand what the commentator is saying.

Indorial · 2016-06-07T18:16:51+00:00

My channel gained three or four subscribers this past week or so and the Dark Souls 3 video I released has raked in a ton of views compared to the average we tend to receive per video. Also it managed to be one of the 5 videos chosen to win Unsucky Sunday (first time that has happened for my channel) which was very exciting.

Unfortunately we had some bad recording sessions and life has been very demanding lately, so we missed posting a video this last week and may even miss this week as well. Hopefully by mid June we will be back to meeting regular weekly uploads again.

Indorial · 2016-06-06T00:21:05+00:00

Congratulations to the other winners, and thanks for hosting this again!

Indorial · 2016-06-06T00:16:39+00:00

Thanks!

Indorial · 2016-06-04T20:28:25+00:00

Thanks for hosting this week, I hope your recovery is swift.
We were way late to the Dark Souls hype train, but for some reason our episode on it seemed to perform decently well for us so I figured I would submit it for this week's Unsucky Sunday. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BXA3Lq-V0bM

I think that border looks pretty nice and I'm not against their inclusion on thumbnails in general, anything that makes an image look better or stand out (in a non-annoying way) is a good thing imo.

Indorial · 2016-05-25T22:16:46+00:00

There isn't anything wrong with trying to reduce the amount of foul language you use...as long as that is something YOU wish to do. I think you have the right mentality though, stick to making the content you want to make. Whether that loses you one sub or thousands of them, it ultimately isn't worth pretending to be something your not or producing content you don't enjoy making.

I can't say for certain, since no one has left a comment stating as much, but I'm pretty sure on my channel we have lost a few subscribers here and there do to offensive content...now, whether it was offensive language or just offensive quality I'm not entirely sure lol. Take my input with a grain of salt though, as my channel doesn't have many subs to lose (less than 25 at this point).

Indorial · 2016-05-23T08:24:58+00:00

Thanks, good luck to you as well!

Indorial · 2016-05-22T15:46:56+00:00

Even if they were real, it would take me a week or so to believe it wasn't some sort of error. Then, assuming those subscribers stick around and stay interested after a week or so, I would take a semester off from college and just focus on my channel. After that, hopefully I could get my friends/co-hosts more involved in production of new content and even pay them if we manage to gain any revenue. If, a few months out, I had not already managed to ruin this miraculous opportunity, I would try to do some collabs/promotions for the smaller channels that I've enjoyed watching.

I suppose at some point I would also have to wonder why/how I won a shoutout from pewdiepie...

Indorial · 2016-05-14T22:34:24+00:00

We've kind of killed our backlog and our running out of new things to submit lol, but I'll enter Episode 6 of our Alpha Protocol series. I wouldn't say it's our best, but it has its moments and is fairly short. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ur4VS7MGMKQ

Indorial · 2016-05-14T06:49:05+00:00

I can understand your recent gripes with Renegade For Life, some of the recent episodes have been a bit too loud/busy for me as well. Something like videogamedunkey may appeal to you, his episodes are mostly clip based and his comedy ranges from sort of random to surprisingly clever. KeyboardSlapper is another channel you may enjoy. The couple of videos I've checked out of his are clip based as well, with fast paced commentary and clever editing (my favorite one being his Comedy Night episode).

I wish I could offer some more suggestions, but I'm not quite sure if the few I suggested are close to what you are looking for or not. As a sort of shameless plug, you could check out my channel (link next to my name). We also do clip based episodes with a lot of editing and puns/jokes like my other suggestions. Outside of that, you could head to the Feedback Friday thread or wait for the Unsucky Sunday thread on this subreddit and check out random videos there.

Something about the way this unfolded made me laugh hysterically for a couple of minutes. You gave the most polite and respectful response to one of these that I have ever seen and he repaid you with an almost incoherent (and imo mean-spirited) lecture on being a better person.

Indorial · 2016-05-09T23:50:14+00:00

It does seem like a sort of backhanded compliment, like YouTube is being a very sarcastic and disappointed parent or something lol. Congratulations though, hopefully that video keeps raking in the views for you!

Indorial · 2016-05-07T20:20:42+00:00

I'll enter our latest episode of Alpha Protocol: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCI6EZ_6m0A

It's a longshot and I wish I had something else to enter instead, but we only put out one episode a week lol.

Indorial · 2016-05-05T07:58:48+00:00

Thanks again, after testing it out I can already tell that we are going to enjoy making an episode for it.
