The Battle Plan 2 December 2019 (Patreon)

Silberman - Why don't you cover more games, something more unusual? Don't you have, uh... a bunch of keys from random indie titles? Show me a game I haven't heard of.

Vukovich - A game you haven't heard of?

Failure - You go with the one game. Something about the algorithm generated by a living YouTube. More than one game won't go.

Silberman - Why?

Failure - I did write the chuffin algorithm!

Silberman - Okay, okay. But this Transport Fever 2, if it's a game...

Failure - One game!

Silberman - Oh, right, right.

Silberman - [shuts of YouTube on which the police and Sarah have been watching the interview] This is great stuff. I could make a career out of this guy! You see how clever his part is? How it doesn't require a shred of proof? Most paranoid delusions are intricate, but this is brilliant!

Silberman - Why did you stop recording Automation Empire? And Soviet Republic, people like that one.

Failure - Most games were lost in the launch window. The algorithm knew almost nothing about Transport Fever 2. The title, when it was coming out. It just knew it was popular right now. The algorithm was just being systematic.

Silberman - Uh-huh. Well, let's go back to what I was...

Failure - Look! You have heard enough! I have answered your questions! Now, I have to record more videos!

Silberman - I'm afraid that's not up to me.

Failure - Then why am I talking to you? Who is in authority here?

Silberman - Please, I...

Failure - Shut up!

Failure - You still don't get it, do you? The algorithm will find these videos! That's what it does! That's ALL it does! You can't stop it! It'll wade through videos about trucks or factories, reach down my channel and pull out a chuffin 5 minute masterclass!

Day 7 of the Transport Fever exclusivity period, friends and it seems I'm making some videos that people actually want to watch. That's nice. Maybe if I made a few more of these, I'd be a Big Deal On The Internet, which is stupid to aspire to but there it is. Last week's FESTIVAL OF ENTERTAINMENT that was my livestream was a great deal of fun and broke all previous records I had associated with live streams. Herself, wisdom incarnate, repeatedly tells me I should do them more often. She's probably onto something there, just like she is with 99% of her Colonel Failure's World Domination Plan suggestions.

So, what's coming up? Don't be silly you know the answer to that already.

Okay, so what's coming up after that?

Soviet Republic will return, as will baseball (you should watch this series even if you're not a sports person, the commentary, I'm told, is splendid.) Beyond that will be the shock of something new.

I'll continue with daily Transport Fevering until the view numbers drop off a little then I'll return to the usual eclectic mix. If that wait looks lengthy then I'll just have to knuckle down and make more vid-yo. I like making vid-yo so this is really not an issue. Time. That's an issue. I'll work something out.

Expect more live streamery next week on launch day. Cool kids stream on launch day. I'm cool. And I behave like a kid. So that's all good then.

Until next time, I've been Colonel Failure.
