I belie dat for FPC. I think you get large Dump readership, but for FPC who knows. The same goes for me: I don't think my new show today even got a freaking THREAD view on the FPC.
They didn't even open the freaking THREAD to see it!!
Heck, I know I'm not producing the e-fed equivalent of Uematsu, but at least they could check it out for two seconds!
JD made that great thread a while back about what people want in an e-fed and I remember making a Simpsons joke in that thread that turned out to be pretty true:
" Man: How many of you kids would like Itchy & Scratchy to deal with
real-life problems, like the ones you face every day?
Kids: [clamoring] Oh, yeah! I would! Great idea! Yeah, that's it!
Man: And who would like to see them do just the opposite -- getting
into far-out situations involving robots and magic powers?
Kids: [clamoring] Me! Yeah! Oh, cool! Yeah, that's what I want!
Man: So, you want a realistic, down-to-earth show... that's
completely off-the-wall and swarming with magic robots?
Kids: [all agreeing, quieter this time] That's right. Oh yeah,
good.
Milhouse: And also, you should win things by watching."
I know some of our e-fed characters have long backstories that new casual fans don't want to get into, but geez, a lot of us have been creating NEW characters recently. Guys that don't have really long histories! And hell, Spunk Pro has pretty digestible shows with writeups. Whereas my shows are long and have videos. So honestly...how the hell aren't EITHER of us getting feedback there when we have two shows that are pretty opposite in form? (though of Mt Olympian quality!) Know what i mean? That relates to the above quote. They say they want vids
or writeups and yet NEITHER of our stuff gets comment! They really want a realistic down to earth fed with TONS of killer Mysteriosis robots. Oh well, I know the ma in audience of my feds are contributors and if they are enjoying how things are going, along with me, then things are cool. Still, it would be nice to get a bit of extra feedback from the FPC masses
Seriously, I think Mysteriosis is the gold standard over there...
And obviously, I don't expect everyone there or anywhere to take the time to follow e-feds, but i'm just surprised that those that do talk about them there don't seem to check stuff out.
