I'm almost certain Mack is BD based on the paragraphing style and tone of those posts. Not to mention the walls of text BD is famous for.
I always thought this myself too. They even deleted the post that the bot makes for when the Mackenzie person joined the Discord. Even mine from last year is still there, thought that was such an odd thing to do.

Just seems like the Mackenzie account is for him to post about the game from while his own Discord account is for him to talk about the Steelers.

No it doesn't. Patrons are down 14% since the start of the year. Why the earnings and per-patron estimates have gone up I have no idea.
It depends on what you look at I guess? compared to one year earlier he lost 7% of his Patrons, but:

He had 2733 Patrons left in August, and 2816 in September. That means during September he gained 83 Patrons. You can literally see the September line being higher again in the left image. The peak was higher though - but I would think if Graphtreon uses the baseline for comparison, that one is more significant? :unsure:

If you look at the curve more closely, it is mainly due to the fall of Patrons at the end of September being smaller than before, so this might suggest that most people not happy with the current situation left already, and what we see now is somewhat of the die-hard-core of Patrons - who knows?

For Graphtreons money calculations - I have no idea if Graphtreon can still track that because BD removed that info from his Patreon account, as visible in the charts too.
But before he did so, the pledge per Patron was on a slow rise - so my guess is, with no new data, Graphtreon assumes, that trend just continues indefinitely, so every month it assumes everyone just gives BD a little more - forever. And of course, every new Patron pays the average of what Graphtreon knew last to be true .^^
The high rise in money per Patron might even indicate, Graphtreon looks at both curves somewhat independently - so with fewer Patrons, for the money climbing like it did last when available, everyone obviously has to be upping their pledges all the time.

So, for Graphtreon to just show what you want to be displayed, wait until you have a good run, then turn down any info it can analyze and your charts are good.

No, looking at it again it's just buggy, and it assumes that the earnings are exactly the same now as they were when they last had data. Obviously you should ignore that part completely, and just look at the patron counts. Which are up ▲2.3% since last month, but still down ▼8.6% from three months ago and down ▼11.2% from six months ago.

The earnings were actually in a fairly steep decline when he switched off the data, despite patron numbers only declining slightly in the same period.

Yeah, I was only talking about him gaining Patrons in September comparing it to August. The overall trend is negative, but it is still interesting, that he was able to 'win Patrons back' in this timeframe, going from the bottom-points of this graph. We'll see how that continues or not.

And like I said, I find it interesting, that it feels like he is zooming/zeroing? in at around 3000 Patrons from that graph, with fewer Patrons in the peak, but also fewer losses at the end of the month, so less fluctuation overall. Feels a little like most people not happy with what's going on left already, and those numbers might be the rest that'll stick with him.

Didn't take a detailed look at the earnings, but that is an interesting observation.
It is of course like you said, completely theoretical at this point and doesn't have any real value.

Edit: Is that how it feels to follow some shares/stock and analyze what's going on with that company? :LOL:

Here are my guesses for this months excuse.
1: His favorite houseplant died so he is taking a break because of its death.
2: Someone stole the towels from his laundry room and now he is hunting them down.
3: He was playing for Hufflepuff in the quidditch tournament.
4: He was cleaning his ears with a Q-tip and put it too far in. Now he can't hear his alarm to wake him up to work on the VN.
5: He overslept.
6: His house was too cold so he had to go to the Caribbean to warm up before he got sick.
7: His cat ate his HDD with some fava beans and a nice chianti.
8: He forgot.
9: Stubbed his toe which caused too much pain to sit and work on his PC.
10: His PC was covered with 8 feet of snow in a surprise snowstorm.
11: He drank a glass of water forgetting that he is allergic to water so he spent the month in the hospital.
12: The police raided his home and gave him a speeding ticket for typing too fast. Now the VN is delayed again because of speeding.
13: He did get sick and had a fever of 132 fahrenheit (55.5 celcius) (Little health fact, the highest temp a body can live with is 108F/42C)
14: His cat got depressed and now requires constant attention.
15: A crow stole his HDD.
16: He spent weeks on the phone with the insurance company after his swimming pool caught fire.
17: He had to go shopping for the perfect chair to use while working on the VN after his other chair broke from overuse.
18: He tripped on the stairs on the way to his PC.
19: He saw a dodo on the way to his PC and had to follow it all around town for weeks.
20: He didn't know that he was allowed to work on the VN.
Giving him ideas for the next 19 months of delays is not the best thing you could do.

You'll have to re-download the whole game. Update only is broken
I installed update only, seemed to work fine, other than the obvious error in the Anna scene (naming)

If ever I had a need for a mod, it would be to permanently remove that heresy from existence. JFC, girl, you're a legal adult, don't fucking talk like that.

BDs made well over $150k this year alone and all we've seen is some DILDO and like 500 renders. Wish I could slack off at work while making close to a 1/4 a million dollars :ROFLMAO:
.. Well, fuck me. I should talk with my pal Mike and see if we can get a game going, he's got some experience with the model setups, and I can do code relatively easily. For that kind of money, totally worth it! Granted, I know it never starts out that good, but.. goddamn.

So... I guess I didn't play since October? 2020, when MC was arrested after the fight. Am I missing something? Where should I restart from?
