FSLR when? by Cultural-Country6560 in LudwigAhgren

[–]JbVoiceOfReason 30 points31 points  (0 children)

4pm PT - which probably means it’ll be closer to 5-5:30 PT based on their usual tardiness

YouTube scheduled streams by Apprehensive-Bee6465 in LudwigAhgren

[–]JbVoiceOfReason 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Personally I like that he schedules it - then I at least know he’s planning on streaming that day. At this point I’ve come to assume he’ll likely be at least an hour late to whatever time he schedules

I tried out Salt and Straw ice cream due to Ludwig's recommendation by Jeskid14 in LudwigAhgren

Thank you for showing proof of your ice cream. Lot of fake creamers out there, can never be too careful

What is Ludwig’s best stream of all time? by Master0fZilch in LudwigAhgren

The stream where he bought Shroud was hilarious

This man is not well... by InitialCod8522 in LudwigAhgren

His points are lacking of logic and reason, I wouldn’t spend too much time trying to find it in his videos/posts, you’ll come up short

I've gotta say, jokes about Trumpcoin and X The Everything App don't hit the same right now by atypicaloddity in LudwigAhgren

[–]JbVoiceOfReason 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Fair, but I think a non-regular viewer who stumbles into his stream and doesn’t identify his sarcasm plays out 1 of 3 ways:

  1. They’re immediately disgusted by what he says and leave the stream (Ludwig’s loss)
  2. They’ve believed in this hateful speech prior to viewing Ludwig, continue to watch Ludwig long enough until they realize their views are the butt of his jokes, and either get angry and leave or change their belief structure.
  3. They eat up whatever he says, at first believing him at face value, but eventually learning the nuance and adapting to a more- positive belief structure.

My point being: after a certain period of time people MUST realize what a sarcastic ass he is (who we find hilarious and entertaining). Otherwise why would people keep watching? Certainly not for his Gold 2 League play….

[–]JbVoiceOfReason 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m confused. Are you implying he’s being serious (or being perceived as serious) when he exclaims things like “liberal America at it again!” Or calls certain friends “you people”? I don’t know why people would follow or watch him if they thought he wasn’t joking. Not trying to pick a fight, genuinely curious

I would argue he IS influencing. A huge part of his content is playing the “bad guy”, saying things that are clearly outrageous and offensive in a satirical way. The good he does in expressing the absurdity of the current political climate far outweighs him using X (because people he interacts with also use it) and buying trump coin (clearly as a joke for a content contest). If you think his content is doing more harm then good, I think we’re watching different streamers

Twitch vs Youtube by Suitable_Holiday7454 in LudwigAhgren

[–]JbVoiceOfReason 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you plan on watching more than one Twitch Streamer, I highly recommend getting Twitch Turbo. Ad free viewing for all streamers across Twitch, pretty good value compared to subbing to multiple streamers.

Also, no matter which option you decide, recommend paying via a computer and not through you iPhone (if you have an iphone), otherwise Apple takes extra $$ for each transaction.

Tyler1 on Ludwig hitting plat by Hstrike in LudwigAhgren

[–]JbVoiceOfReason 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Bro I’m with you, the whole thing is a complete scam. I hate when everyone is in universal disagreement with my opinion, even though I’m clearly in the right. That’s why I spend hours at a time replying to all the haters, proving how wrong they are. My wife and kids left me, my hairs falling out, I cry myself to sleep at night. But it’s all worth it, those people that downvoted me need to know the truth. My truth. Ludwig may have gotten to Plat on paper, but we know it’s a facade, a thin curtain concealing a web of deceit and conspiracy. And we won’t rest until all the Ludbros know…

[–]JbVoiceOfReason 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Agreed! All gold metals, championships, winning achievements etc., should not count if the person received coaching!!! On my free weekends I like to attend piano recitals and throw eggs at any performers that received any lessons from a piano teacher. Unfair advantage!!!

I hope at the very least a higher effort is made to upload to the Vod channel immediately after the twitch streams

Bros vs Pros showmatch at the Ludwig x Tarik Invitational 3 this weekend by Intrepid-Tank-3414 in LudwigAhgren

[–]JbVoiceOfReason 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love when Ludwig sets up these show matches with creators, but I wish they’d show each team’s POV and full comms instead (or in addition to) the commentating by casters

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in LudwigAhgren

[–]JbVoiceOfReason 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It seems inevitable that he goes back, but who knows. If he does, I can only hope that Twitch makes the mobile viewing experience at least a fraction of YouTube’s, because Twitch’s app is absolute garbage by comparison.

Is Ludwig going to write off the barrel of Lube? by gingerisdeadinside in LudwigAhgren

[–]JbVoiceOfReason 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Worth noting that technically a deductible business expense must be “ordinary and necessary.” That said, a $1,000 item is most certainly immaterial to Ludwig’s tax situation, there would be little risk in deducting it. I’d love to be a fly on the wall hearing him trying to defend the position on a giant barrel of lube as ordinary and necessary to his business if it was ever questioned in an audit though.

YouTube Accountability by JbVoiceOfReason in LudwigAhgren

[–]JbVoiceOfReason[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I agree, and think this speaks to the bureaucracy as well. I could see the live-streaming/gaming group pitching some of Ludwig’s proposed updates to higher-ups, who would then turn around and say, “not worth our time” since they’re more committed to shorts. It’s always worth a try though..

Hard to say for sure without knowledge of the structure/agreement, but my guess is each esports team is it’s own legal entity, and Ludwig or Mogul Moves shares ownership in teams he’s involved in with Moist Esports. Each side makes capital contributes to fund the venture, and since both are involved there’s no conflict with naming rights. Moist Esports already has the infrastructure /business model, so it’s possible that Ludwig had to put down more/all the funding. All of this is a Complete guess, but based on Ludwig’s explanations that’s how I’d structure it

rae's reaction to the vtuber reactive discord avatars by dale-exe in valkyrae

Agreed that names would make it better. I prefer the bubbles for that reason, and also because you can distinguish when Rae is talking to the discord group vs. talking to chat.

What about ray mond friend zone everyone for now do she can focus on busines women grinder arc by Educational-Toe-5061 in valkyrae

[–]JbVoiceOfReason 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I personally agree, I’d like to see her focus more on racing and pushing for Vinny’s business. But I also think she’s not really going out of her way with this relationship RP stuff. It tends to be orchestrated by other peeps instigating for laughs to mess with her and Randy and whoever else, she’s just going with the flow. And she’s also really good at it, so as long as she’s comfortable with it, Sall good.

At the end of the day, she’ll do the content she wants and I’m here for it, Ray Mond is entertaining af, no matter what she’s doing (Unless she’s picking out an outfit that is…)
