Studio hype is real.

Era is an active EZA community with a number of lurkers, but so is the unofficial discord (which did the big surge) and I'd imagine the reddit page. But there's also twitter as well

And the 50 counter is from the last graphetron snapshot which i believe is at 9pm PST.

My guess it's a combination of a number things. The discord kicked things up a notch, people here and elsewhere noticed it, it fed into more jumping in as people feel motivated to contribute once a goal draws near. Plus And for that reason ep 2 dropped today.
Wait, there's an unofficial Discord? Where's #thelink fam?

Someone wanna recap.what Jones said on stream, if anything?
Mostly he's just excited, but wants to make sure everybody knows to not get too excited until they see if the 50k stays by July 5th. If it does, they will begin checking around for potential office spaces. He said he also wants to get more in-depth on Tuesday's Cup of Jones.

I'd like to see the dudes that did the E3 graphics get tapped to come up with some designs for the studio. That was some fine work. We want that studio to be crissssssp

Even if they get the studio, Kyle may (and from what he's said, likely won't) want to do that kind of show again. If he's forced into it, it will be shit and do more harm than good.

People gotta come up with new ideas. Kyle having a show has been bounced around "Ohhhh but they won't get very far without it" and here we are, not even 3 years later, setting new records and potentially getting a studio and people still harping on about it.

Yet the numbers go up in spite of that. Let it goooooo.

It doesnt need to be final bosman or a show like that, but kyle certainly needs something after box peak to channel his energy into. The way kyle has talked about doing a final bosman like show before was very in tune with the fact that they didnt have a studio and the fact he really didnt think they would get one soon or if at all.

Kyle doing a show that is somewhat regular in some form is clearly very value-able and has the most potential to catch on and not take months to work on (aka game sleuths and retros)

I hadn't watched And For That Reason until now and had thought it was just going to be a longer form of what they did on the podcast. I was totally blindsided by how different it is, but I love it.

I didn't have time to post when I first saw them, and ended up forgetting to come back and do so when I did, so a few days late but thanks for the kind words everybody.

I think this would do wonders:

52k: Huber's Video Game Game Show

54k: The Final Bosman Revengence

56k: First Fifteen

Bloodworth Is Mario Tennis Aces getting a review? If so, by whom?
Also, if you're the one doing the review, may I recommend at least a section going into its Online Tournament mode? Because I really think that online tournaments of the kind Mario Tennis Aces has should be the way forward for online competitive games and I think that if reviewers praise stuff like that, the chances of seeing that extended to other titles increases. To me, it's as big as it's almost fighting game-like gameplay and it having a campaign lol. I even made a thread about it when the demo was happening.

Great suggestions. But I don't think Kyle has interest in creating another FB style show.

Based on one of the Q&A's months ago (don't remember which) that's not true. He said he doesn't want to give people a show he knows will be much worse without a studio, at that point they had so so cameras, no time to bring people together for bits etc. Maybe with a studio and much better equipment he will bring it back.

Currently at $51,560, which for me is very significant because it means even if our lord and savior Thrillhouse completely dropped his amazing pledge, they would still be at that $50k mark. Obviously still keeping in mind the first of the month drop would then bring it back down below $50k, to me it means that this could be more sustainable than initially thought. Pretty exciting!

So updated totals between the 24 hour snapshot from graphetron. Yesterday they gained 62 new patrons

So far today they have added 14

62 patrons in a day is just amazing. To me that's far more important than just reaching the 50K (well, both are important, of course). But the allies have always said they prefer to have more patrons with smaller pledges than less patrons with higher pledges. And things like gaining 200 patrons in less than a month or 62 in just a day feel soo good.

It starts to look like they could actually get a studio earlier than expected.

52K - Brad's Co-Op Adventure - Brad and a rotating Ally co-op through some notoriously difficult retro games

54K - First Fifteen Successor

56K - EZA Family Feud, hosted by Huber, (The people polled come from a new Patreon tier locked at 100, or the first 100 submissions of a poll each episode)

58K - Throwdowns - One Ally challenges a guest from another gaming outlet to a game. Monthly show. This would allow more guests and collaborations, all contingent on scheduling.

60K - Bosman Does Something Quirky

I just want full playthrough Fridays back like at GT. Like, 3 or more allies playing through a game every Friday. Of course, over multiple fridays if needed.

On their Plays channel, the full playthroughs are their most viewed videos by far.

It's be great to have the JRPG crew reunite. The Gundam streams were unofficially that but to pick back up where they left off with Mario RPG

I would definitely like some older shows to make a return, like Final Bosman & Mandatory Update. Elyse pops up on Easy Update every now & then anyway, so it could work. And they recently did a similar SNL style thing for another channel no too long ago.

Yeah, I was gonna say. The times I've heard Kyle talk about it it has seemed like it was a matter of time, money and studio space. Perhaps it's more complicated than that to him mind you, but from what I remembered it actually sounded like a feasible post 50k goal to me.

Stretch goals are good but I'm not sure they need to stack any additional shows onto themselves... They have so many shows. I wonder if it would be better to rotate some shows into/out of production periodically

I hope Damiani appears on Frame Trap soon because it feels like it has been a while and I'd love a Dragon Ball update.

Not sure if it has improved but the discord is generally not friendly to outsiders, that's why it's "unofficial".
As a mod over on that discord I'd have to disagree. We've done a lot in the past 6 months or so to pretty much reboot the place. We have tons of new members and everyone is welcome to new people. Even Ben likes to stop by regularly to chat with us (sometimes for hours). We welcome anyone from the community that wants to join. However, if people simply don't want to give it a chance, I've found the EZA Era discord to be a pleasant place as well.
