Think it's intentional, since he does it more than once. I found it funny. #foreveralone

I've heard about him. He goes a little bananas when deprived of videos for a long time... Sorry, couldn't remember your exact nickname. I did enjoy it when you went bananas, though. But I love my nerves...

Hey, guys, remember that guy who's keeping a diary every time he has to wait for a new finished episode being uploaded by Machinima? I guess Ross is just making the episodes shorter in order to read more. Fair is fair, though - you gotta give, not only take. Yeah, yeah, I read the post saying that Ross is using landmarks in the game. Then again, the government keeps saying they aren't doing anything secret. So I guess not everything can be used at face value. Anyway, awesome episode. It's like those 10 minutes of awesome were condensed into 5, which made it the ultimate episode. It had ninjas. What more can a guy ask for?

Voted no. Ross needs the money and one week isn't that much. Our generation is simply spoiled to have everything asap ("I need it YESTERDAY!"). The progress bar is useful, because sometimes, Ross could go on for more than a month delaying. And about Machinima delays... This is a marketing move. The last episode went out just the 5th of May or something like that. You get a lot of episodes back to back but when you look at the history, you see that usually, it's a monthly 'special'. Of course, that is not quite logical, because delays kill the hype (it excites the fans, but those who are not sure whether to watch it or not will simply forget and stop refreshing). Then again, I haven't studied marketing at all, so I might be wrong. Or it might be that they're lazy. At any rate, Ross needs the money. Not to mention that to go solo, he needs quite the team. Or 24/7 dedication. P.S. I would still have Machinima's heads for delaying, though.

33 & 34 Green?! It's a sign of the apocalypse!

At this point, I just hope somebody missclicks and uploads by accident the latest FM. Apparently, they only upload bullshit on time. And no, you can't convince me that 6 days delay for a 10-minutes-long video is a legitimate delay for a group that gets money out of it. Imagine walking into a store and them telling you you have to wait for a week on the queue for the new product. P.S. Seriously - have you seen some of the stuff out there in Machinima? *Shudders*bbrrrr -
In all seriousness, this is a dire situation.

Freeman has no cause whatsoever to think he's some kind of hero. So the guy just wants to survive. That's what I like about the whole series. -

Piestein replied to GameGodOfAll's topic in Freeman's Mind
that was a quote when they used in in v for vendetta, idk where from, but its old yeah, its from the movie. I don´t know who said it in real life, but it has a Rousseaunian (if thats spelled right) tone to it. Still nothing regarding FM though. I think sabotaging machinima is looking really good right now... Yahoo answers says that this quote is just a rephrased version of this: "When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty. " Thomas Jefferson Then again, if we're playing the game of "similar" and not "exact" quotes, I bet somebody else said similar things before Mr. Jefferson. Curious quote, btw, considering the ideology behind the current version of democracy (which is that the elected should be the best of the best, not just some percentage of all and every class; if one could say classes still exist). Btw, a boycott wouldn't help us against Machinima. I suggest infiltration in their ranks and then total submission from within. Get in, get at key posts and rule the place. First thing I'd do then is write a Declaration. Article 1: Thou shalt not prioritise directly or indirectly the upload of videos holding no humorous content for no other purpose than profit. Article 2: The quality of each video is deemed appropriate or not by the Commission, referred to as "the FN fanbase". This won't be a dictatorship, don't get fooled. The Chief, His Holy Grace the Second Cousin of God Twice-Removed, will also be called The Liberator. These new rules will free the people of the old ones. I get carried away when I have no Freeman's Mind .
