Yup, an hour for each comment.
When they make a feature film adaptation it's going to be split into three parts and released 3 hours at a time just before Christmas to compete with Starwars, The Hobbit, Harry Potter etc.

See, this is a youtube video I'd watch
I second that.
It could become a dark and moody short film about a man slowly driven to madness by his metal miniatiures. Please make it. This story needs to be told.

Until I saw the youtube comments in my email I had completely forgotten about this.
"I drive a big car, cuz I'm a big star. I'll make a big rock-and-roll hit." "I am a big car, and I'm a strip bar. Some call it fake, I call it good-as-it-gets."
I am both selfish and chaotic. I value self-gratification and control; I want to have things my way, preferably now. At best, I'm entertaining and surprising; at worst, I'm hedonistic and violent.

I had a pewter dreadnought leg and arm break off yesterday, while swapping it's cannon for a TLLC. I wanted to scream. There was cussing and pinning to be had. (Oh and to echo chamber everyone else, that is the video we deserve by the way.)
Gandair, I'm kinda surprised you took the time to do this.

Can i get famous by derailing the thread discussing the video review of a thread derailing?
Is gandair getting any advertising revenue from YouTube from this since the latest stipulations?

I know I'll only be satisfied when this guy posts another video about this thread about his video about another thread on which the pressing issue of the TV show "The Slap" is discussed at length by tabletop wargamers. The struggle is real folks!

A review of a thread. That's over an hour long. Has anyone actually sat through the whole thing? This does not seem to be an effective use of time. Since its a year ago, does that technically count as a necro?

Breaking news! There was a ten poster pile up on the DakkaDakka Discussions Board earlier today when a poster made a wild claim that Riptides were perfectly balanced. The claim has left the DakkaDakka world reeling, and our prayers go with the toy soldiers and their plight!

OK.
And?
And I find it continually amusing how things posted on the internet have their way of creeping back into relevance from time to time. It gives me a giggle. Once in a while I will randomly get a comment on the Valkyrie Profile Salerno Academy Puzzle Walkthrough video I made years ago or someone stumbling across one of my 40k batreps to point out stuff I did wrong or give me criticism about my style of presentation.
Also if anyone's curious I don't make any money off that youtube channel. I'm not partnered on it. All my videos are just my own folly/amusement. If you see an ad on a video for some reason that's all youtube and I have nothing to do with it.

Then I see I have no choice but to make my own video complaining about how he pronounces Dakka in his video about a thread on Dakka! And I shall post it on Youtube also, in order to make my nemesis tremble in his boots when he sees that my power has grown to the point where I may absorb some of his previously untouchable youtube powers!
