There Will Be Brawl Series Finale This Friday
- Thread starter Spinwhiz
- Start date
Is The Escapist borrowing from the SciFi Channel's Book of How to Host a Hit Series? They've been sitting on it since last Tuesday, so what possible reason could there be for this extended wait? At least when the second half of BSG S4 was yanked away for a whole year it was to milk more money from the fans.
Actually escapist only had since late last thursday, friday was christmas, then the weekemd, I'm told that monday technically could have been a "bank holiday?" they might have fumbled the ball a bit on tuesday but its wednesday and the world is at peace. I'm not 100% happy on the handling but it could have been worse, a lot better also but worse as well.Will the Great said:
Normally a bank holiday would be an acceptable excuse (or would be, if that didn't still leave us with a week), but somehow the Escapist managed to upload other content despite that fact. I wonder what bizarre plot device prevented them from using this same advanced technology to post TWBB's finale the same way.
Other content that ISN'T a 40-minute long epic finale to a popular series, you mean? I bet the unskippable guys/Yahtzee upload their content themselves, and the reviews are probably made in-house. (and easy enough to upload before christmas and timed to go live, even)Will the Great said:
Plus, news flash: People are usually on vacation on Christmas, andspending time with family, not checking websites. If you're posting something as epic and awesome as Brawl, you want ot make sure people are aware of it. It's why you post it with advance warning on a day when people are likely to be nursing hangovers instead of having fun with family, or instead of 3 AM on Tuesday.
It's just smart business to not put it up on Christmas.
It certainly is. But what about the other six days that aren't bank holidays or Christmas during which the episode was not live?
I'll be still drunk (i hope), but hell - i'm gonna watch TWBB no matter what !
By the way : I still consider Luigi as prime suspect of being the killer.

thanks for the heads up, after going to this website everyday at night to see if its on, at least now i can chill and just wait for tonight, or tommorow if i go to a party. Thanks for the New Years Present.
Please don't feed the trolls. Leave them to wallow in the knowledge that no one will remember them when they die of collapsed arteries.zimpirate said:
There Will Be Brawl... on every single thread about the finale. guys? has it occured to anyone that maybe the Escapist is NOT a horrible, evil, money-grubbing corporation seeking to control us all? has it occured to anyone that maybe, just MAYBE, they wanted the finale to be a Happy New Year gift to everybody? simplest solution is the most likely solution, and this time, if it's not a scheduling issue, it's a "let's try to give our fans something to look forward to to start 2010 with a bang" issue.
but if you want to get your testicles (or breast-icles) in a twist over this, go ahead and QQ SUM MO. some of us have more important things to do.

And now you know... The rest of the story.tibet said:
Seriously, thanks to everyone that was involved in this. It's one of the best re-adaptations of the Nintendo Smash Bros series that I can think of. It's pretty clever and it has a lot going for it.
*thumbs up*
