Intermittent Denial of Service attack is causing downtime. Looks like a kiddie 5 min rental. Looking into some solutions.

Just as well. In theory I would like to own an official Sonichu commission (in much the same way I'd like a cameo in a Uwe Boll or Friedberg & Seltzer movie), but even if he made the prices more reasonable I refuse to enable him while his life is in the shitter. Once he moves away from his crazed mother and has another source of honest income, I'd be happy to give him some of my money.
... which means I'm never going to get a commission, am I?

And so came the end of an age.
I assume no one actually bought anything from the sale?

No one actually bought much from Van Gogh either. But then again, he didn't have eBay.

Money-making idea for CWC:
Why doesn't he take a page out of half-brother Cole Smithey's book, and auction off a "Have Lunch with Chris" date at McDonald's, or a similar venue? Chris himself, rather than his artwork, is the truly marketable commodity here, and I have no doubt that weens and fanboys would compete to purchase an hour of time with this unique Internet celebrity. He could write in strictures to the event (no yelling "JULAAAY!", certain topics off-limits, etc., any violations of which are subject to him walking out), and maybe even vidya the whole thing for resale to his fan base.

And I still don't have a CWC original.
*stress sigh*
He's actually kind of addressed that idea before in his Craigslist and eBay sales, saying "no meets in person" purportedly because he's afraid for his safety.

Damn. And I was JUST ABOUT to buy that picture of them eating lunch with random people.
In a public place like Mickey D's, with maybe a friend or two in tow, I don't see that as a problem. Then again, if I'd been subject to the monumental amount of trolling and weening that CWC has, I might be pretty paranoid as well.
His online dating profile says differently. He's okay with tarding off to meet complete strangers if they have that elusive "candy" known as china.
I'm not sure. He was excusing his lateness on commissiions due to his girlfriend, so maybe some people had $150 to spare?
"Win a Date with CWC", perhaps?
That would certainly mesh with his Carlos-Chantor manwhore persona.

I got a free B&W commission with the picture I bought off of him a month or so ago. I felt the same way, but at the same time I legitimately wanted something from him because I collect weird crap and a CWC original is kind of a good inclusion there. I paid him twenty bucks and I know out of that 20 he spent 21 before it even cleared PayPal.
"The sale is over. Hmmpf. So there."
Chris is dumb, but he knows that such an idea would just lead to more trolling.
