Will the Beg-a-thon be a payday? - Let's see how well we read the paypigs

[Destro1986]

Okay I know I personally think it's gonna flop, Dave seems to think it's gonna flop, but @actually has been pretty confident it'll payout.

With 12ish hours before it's due to start, who thinks he'll have a payday? I'm defining this as at least double his normal stream totals- so around $1100 if I'm reading things correctly.

Poll is gonna be public, I want everyone to stand by their calls!

I think it will. I'm not watching the stream tonight. But what some people on the farms/twitter seem to be saying. He's going hard on a guilt trip, and I think he'll do the same tomorrow and go all in. He's going to do his usual long sigh, talk in his "muh depression" voice and get them pity christmas donations.

FYI, double his normal streams would be more like $500-600 total (subs + cheers + tips). My guess that it'll be a payday is based on the assumption that Phil's whale tippers (flybeast, afghanistan, and so on) show up. If they don't, it'll be a normal stream at best.

I'm calling it now, you'll have story time with the goutfather. One or two whales will give early, and that will spur him on a long, drawn out story about his misery and suffering. However, the tips will dry up in the first 30 mins and Dave will end looking more depressed than when he started. There will also be low interest from the mods, to the point that Dave will start manually banning left and right.

The content? More rehashed, mindless garbage. Not even worth memeing.

This could be interesting. It'd be something of a project, but would anyone be willing to track the times (and amount) of tips? Could combine that with the cheers and see if the patterns match.

He's gonna be starting well into my work day but I'll try and keep track when I'm around

Depends on whether or not he wears the black begging shirt

 

[PieceofShet]

He needs to pay and bring out the kat if he wants a payday.

 

[Wurstbrot]

You can't get dissappointed if you anticipate it. Of course his porky ass will be saved against all odds.

But I welcome the surprise of being wrong.

He's calling off the Podcast again.

Phil's not confident enough in the podcast to have it so I assume him pushing it off is trying to generate pity for more donations.

I don't think it'll work.

Not surprised. he is well over fed with the emerald_seven $12k at this point. he probably tries to motivate himself to do the begging stream and over come his hurt ego but then his belly reminds him its already quite full and loses the motivation.

Man I don't know this is a new type of behavior. I think he's really upset about this for some reason.

Holy shit guys we came out at exactly 50/50 lol

The community is so torn on what the new twist is going to be it's rather exciting.

Well, even with (or because of?) the delays, I think we can safely declare the begathon a bust in terms of producing large whale tips and cheers.
