Hello everyone,

I hesitated alot posting this, but I'd rather keep you informed and be called a bullshitter than not say anything.

I know your patience is wearing thin here, and I would not willingly test it by pulling this off if it wasn't out of my control. I'm actually putting a lot of pressure on myself to better my service to you all, and this fucking happens...

I'll keep it short.

I travel with my external SSD where all my files and videos are stored. Since I work on a laptop when away, it's normal and necessary.

Returning home last Saturday I saw my next three videos were corrupted, as well as most of my past ones. All mp4 files and dcproj files.

I mean chunks of the videos missing, sounds still playing but images gone in large random chunks leaving a black screen; so I had decided to simply reopen the master dcproj files to re render, but these were also completely unusable.

Thankfully, I keep the raw "unsubbed" vids on a separate disk, so what I've been doing is quite literally re adding the dialogue and sound fx manually.

Eden is now re rendering and will be posted tomorrow.

Chavs is going through the same process and my next quickfire is also fucked but it's manageable.

The VIP late commission from Buddy is unaffected as it wasn't rendered at all, so that's not an issue.

I know it's all "a lot", it's nevertheless what's truly happened and I'm just laying it out.

I'm mortified, not because of this, but because I've let you down completely again, but this time, I truly don't understand how this could have happened.

Maybe I'm not careful enough when I handle files, maybe I bumped my ssd, maybe I'm cursed, idk.

I don't really know what to say exept sorry. And since actions speak louder than words, I'll just make sure to triple checm

K everything this month, so tomorrow is Eden, no fail since it's rendering now. The Halloween Chavs special will be a few days after and for you'll still get the two videos for this month, a quickfire and the next VIP overdue commission.

I'm gonna keep making these videos, it's what I love doing. It's my only job right now. So I'm not going anywhere. I can't.

That's all.

Stay Awesome.

Elliot.

SSD drives are immune to jarring. I would question a cable.

Sounds like a lot of bullshit. So many words. You've been making these videos for years. Now, your process falters? No wonder people are leaving in droves.

It’s ok mate. These things happen. Just keep your head up and keep working hard. Hope you’re doing good.

No worries. Shit happens. However, if this is really bothering you that much then it might be good to create one or two videos you don't release right away (or even talk about) and keep them in reserve for cases like this. Because (according to Murphy's Law) shit will happen again at some point.

I think this is a great idea Avalon. Having two videos ready as back up can never hurt, test it will be some time list where you don’t make money over immediately. But it will help you managing your follower satisfaction.

Thank you for the update Elliot. I know I’ve been very loud with my criticism of late. But next time keep us in the loop beter man. On the 2nd of October you told us Eden 2 was almost done, so if we that hear basically nothing for a month after that, of course we’ll be annoyed/fed up with you. Anyways, happy to hear you’re doing better now. Let’s keep that up!!! 👍
