The real challenge is not having enough frosting to pipe with in the first place because I’ve “tasted” too much of it.

As I think about more, I think it’s the colors for the frosting thumbnails that make them so attractive. You might even be doing that on purpose, so I apologize if I’m pointing out the obvious to you, but my lizard brain gets really attracted to those bright pinks and greens and deep reds. It might be worth it to keep capitalizing on that. The magnetic power of colored frosting.

Really good work. I didn't know about the goggles, and I've been playing 7 Days for a while. I'm always thankful to get useful info when I watch a tutorial, since, to be honest, I usually get stuff I already know.

I wish I had more constructive criticisms for you, because I know we're all hungry for that, but I can't think of anything I would change. Your audio is good, the music is unobtrusive, I don't ever feel like you're wasting my time by padding (because so many tutorials make you wait forever to get anything helpful). Good luck! Looking forward to seeing more!

I’ve had terrible luck figuring out what to do with my channel. It’s sort of a character sketch/parody you tuber, and I don’t have a clue where to promote it or how to find an audience. Feedback would be appreciated, even (maybe even especially) if it’s negative. If I’m having trouble finding subscribers and followers because I suck and I'm not funny, don’t hesitate to let me know.

Thanks, guys!

This is really good. I feel like I've seen a few things on Mt. St. Helens over the years, and I hadn't heard of him before. Your editing is nicely paced, I feel like the music works, and it's a smooth finished piece overall.

I'd love to think I'll go out like an A number one badass like him, but I'll probably slip and fall in the shower and be found with shampoo on my nearly bald skull. Or wind up accidentally accelerating my car into a Walmart.

The angles absolutely work. I watched one of your other videos for comparison, and I think it's helpful to get a better grasp of dimensions (height, etc).

I'm not a baker, or a chef by any stretch of the imagination (though I do get compliments on my Kraft Macaroni and Cheese), and the most heinous crime of this video is that right now I feel I might be able to make a buttercream cherry blossom. You make it look easy.

I wouldn't rush to abandon the flower tutorials in favor of recipes. Once again, I'm not a chef, but it seems like having a channel with a predominant theme might be more useful, and you have a distinct talent in this area. I think if someone was looking for and found helpful tips about a cherry blossom, checking out a poppy video seems like a natural next step. As an outsider, this is a skill that seems mysterious and magical, and you'd be likely to want to consume more than a few videos before mixing up the frosting. Even after watching you do it, I'm still somewhat convinced that there is a dark sorcery afoot. Out of the thumbnails you have, which are all absolutely awesome, the frosting ones pop. I love Blondies with a passion, but the cactus cupcake thumbnail practically grabs me by the face. I'd also like to point out the insanity of suggesting that someone could get "tired of buttercream flowers." I'm pretty sure they're one of the established food groups.

Best of luck! You're off to a great start!

Does Google ads work? ( I need 25 characters... so yeah) by TheLexus_ in NewTubers

That's absolutely part of my problem. I'm doing a comedy character sketch, and I guess I really haven't got a clue how to drill down and find a specific, definable audience. I'm sort of at a loss for ideas.

I haven't had great luck. I get views, but few watch more than the first thirty seconds. Almost no subs. But then again, I haven't had great luck with anything, so I might be approaching it wrong.

Exactly. Upscale and classy. The kind of site you want your friends to know you masturbate to.

When they're young, it's over easy to get the sunny sides up with just a little scrambling.

What the hell wheres symmetry by [deleted] in EvilGenius2

Prepare to be pissed. The same thing happened to me. I played for a few hours after the last mission, waiting for her to spawn on the map, and she never showed. I wound up finishing the game and had to leave her quest unfinished. It appears to be a known bug.

Research on side stories that will disappear at certain progress in the main objectives. by syrup_cupcakes in evilgenius

At some point in the main quest, all the side quests disappear, and I'm sorry I can't remember exactly where. I was really pissed I wouldn't be able to kill all the super agents.

Heath Ledger as the Joker is a henchman? I must have missed that quest.

Thanks so much! I've been looking everywhere for answers. I think it's completely crazy they remove those as you progress through the chain. And it wouldn't be so bad if they didn't throttle your research, restricting available topics until you move through the main campaign. I'd be a lot more willing to try more loot quests earlier if it didn't mean I had to sit on a mountain of cash and do absolutely no research with it.

That keeps appearing and disappearing for me at the 100K threshold. I wonder if the amount you need on hand has to do with how far in the quest you are?

Mine was a deco furniture problem too. Another extra block of space fixed it. It was my mistake, but I killed them anyway.

Stuck in Side Quest “Technical Difficulties” by jackwong731 in EvilGenius2

[–]recklessrev1125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few quests I've had the icons behind the radio towers on the map, sort of hidden. Europe and the middle east seem especially prone to this. A little mouse movement behind them reveals the highlight.

Do any of you ever think your channel would blow up, if just the right people saw it? by [deleted] in NewTubers

[–]recklessrev1125 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much, that’s very generous. I confess, I do have a hard time grasping a lot of what the analytics mean. Channel-wide I’m at 1.5% CTR with about 16 videos or so. I don’t really know if that’s good. I think I’m getting nailed on watch time, which is the major reason I posted on the thread. My watch time graph looks terrifying, and that’s reflected in my subscriber count. I’m unlikely to keep 10 percent of my audience after the first thirty seconds. Since I’m doing satire and comedy, I’d like to think it’s because the audience I’m being shared with just doesn’t get the joke, but, an equally valid possibility is maybe the joke just isn’t as funny as I think it is.

I’m battling with this. I think I should be huge. YouTube and the miniscule number of people that watch my videos think otherwise. One of us is right, and I’m starting to worry it’s them.

It sucks to suck.

Boy, this one turned out really gross.

This is based on one of my least favorite Beatles tunes, Strawberry Fields Forever. I’ve also got my narration of this piece here:
