The guy who plays Wario shares my last name!

Awful news indeed... I hope he gets well soon (no one wants to spend Christmas laying on the floor!) and hopefully they'll take all the time they need to finish the episode

Well, it's been a while since I've posted in the forums here.

Due to finals and such, I haven't had a chance to visit The Escapist for a while, and last I heard the finale was supposed to go up around Christmas, so I took this "On Set" as additional commentary to tide us over until the final product comes out. I guess I'm just not as dedicated a fan as the others here who have been checking the site diligently for the past several days, but I agree that you should take your time and not overdo it. I consider There Will Be Brawl to be the best show on The Escapist, and the most profound piece of fan-fiction ever done in any medium. Color me impressed. I have no doubt that the final episode will be epic, and very much worth the wait.

Besides, you're just staying true to the gaming industry with all these delays.

While I wait, I'll continue pestering various friends about the show. That way when the final does come up, you will have more fans ready to watch it.

Pretty excited to see the last episode. Hope Matt gets well.

my favourite brawl moment was when red sang the more epic version of the pokemon theme, and the excuse me princess part from link, i remember as a lil kid having to find those old cartoons on the internet, and watching them all in 2 days xD... good times, goooood times.

Yeah Matt, don't pull a Heath Ledger on us, dude.

Yeah... wait. What? Don't OD?

 

[TheSkaAssassin]

Yeah Matt, don't pull a Heath Ledger on us, dude.

Yeah... wait. What? Don't OD?

I think he meant don't work yourself to the point of needing medication, thus preveting any possibility of OD-ing like the late Heath Ledger

 

[HatchetDown]

I didn't know it was because he was working hard. I thought it was because Ledger just liked drugs.

Did he OD or did he just mix the wrong drugs together? I didn't look into it that much but that's what someone told me. Please don't OD Matt!!

What I've heard is that he took some pills and went to sleep. Woke up, forgot he took pills, and took some more.

lurkers, lovers and escapists,
this just in, there will be brawl episode 10 was being sent to the escapist magazine a little after 8,
so ya'll know what that means, expect it sometime soon

 

[vagrant247]

Two questions.
Where are you getting that info?
What do you mean by 8? Time zones and such are important when dealing with a worldwide community

 

[mudshovel]

Ugh. Using the 1337 haxxor technique of reading the friggin' post, I was able to determine that the evil Escapist editor who tricked us all by telling us it was gonna be the 18th, was none other than... Matthew Mercer.

So apparently this wasn't some coup by the publisher to push the date up, it was just Matt biting off more than he could chew. Poor bastard. I think we've all been there. I feel like a royal douche now.

Apologies to The Escapist and all its staff. And Matt. Dear god, Matt. Get well soon, man. Feel better.

I am pretty sure all of the videos are 'posted' by the creators. I doubt very much they make the actual post however. Plus if he is told a date he had to conform to, he would put it up on the upload regaurdless of if its realistic or not.

 

[SuperMarioBrawlers]

This was an amazing series, I'm glad though to see it end with a definite ending unlike so many other shows, who end up becoming ridiculous.

Matt get well, Christian and Jordan, get some well deserved rest.

Ummm, no. http://therewillbebrawl.forumotion.net/there-will-be-brawl-the-web-series-f1/ep-10-disc-thread-final-episode-is-on-it-s-way-editing-team-we-love-you-guys-but-don-t-hurt-yourselves-t372-1050.htm#38954

Or, to quote:

Just spoke with Matt. There was a problem with the credits screen after exporting. He went in and changed some stuff and is now re-exporting. The episode is done, but Matt has gone home to gain some much deserved rest. When Jordan comes home from work he will double check the episode, but if the credits portion is still screwed, Jordan will be uploading it tonight anyway.

This unfortunately means no episode tonight. You can all get some sleep yourselves. Technically the Escapist's offices are closed tomorrow, but we have emailed them and told them the episode will be on their FTP tonight and that they are more than welcome to remotely upload it to their fine pages of web for a tomorrow release. It truely is out of our hands from this point foward.

I don't think it was ever in our hands. Just now it's up to The Escapist to be awesome (hopefully)

My bad. An anonymous muckraker just called my attention to this:

http://www.escapistmagazine.com/articles/view/editorials/6907-There-Will-Be-Brawl-The-Story-So-Far

Looks like one Greg Tito originally declared the Dec. 18th date to the public.

So it was definitely someone at The Escapist who made the call and set the unrealistic deadline.

(Insert humorous photoshop of Greg Tito's head pasted onto a screenshot of Link delivering the killing blow to Gannondorf.)

 

[Paridice]

You pulled the series together so well from beginning to end... A true work of art! Do please keep this updated!!! Can not wait for the last episode. I can not even put into words how I feel about this series. Truly spectacular though, I can say that much.

 

[evanASF27]

I seriously be needing my fix of TWBB.

According to the crew the fixed/finished/blah'd episode has been sent in and should have been put up today...

...would really suck if we had to wait a blasted month for this thing.

 

[Buuman]

argh it must come out
