If I were them I would say fuck it and become the villains the community tried to make them into. Scalp every one of those motherfuckers and show up to the concert in limos wearing Louis Vuitton Bae happis.

The whole thing really didn't seem too out of the ordinary to me. I've seen and heard of plenty of fan clubs, for both music and sporting events, organizing to buy up a contingent of tickets for their ranks.
The way they went about it was a bit odd, and it would have probably been better if they registered interest beforehand and then only bought enough tickets to provide everyone who registered with a guaranteed ticket. If any are left over after that, they could still be raffled off.

I'm pretty sure that was what was happening.They had spreadsheets and everything, and were letting people just come into the server and ask to be put on the list for tickets right up until the point they got shamed into giving them up.

What a sad sad state the fanbase on twitter has gotten into that they can be baited so easily.
It'll only get worse, seeing as no-effort ragebait, and picking fights over nothing are currently the most popular forms of content on social media, or at least that's what it feels like.

Its whack that this place is more okay and level headed
It's a combination of a few things comes together

1. This place was an offshoot of kiwifarms, most regular who came over has been through an entire era of internet
Which basically means "everyone here is old as fuck" the average age is probs 29-ish, and you may even find 40+ people. Meanwhile the average of twitter user age is like 13. Given vtuber audience is older than the normal internet, the average age of twitter hololive user is probs around 16-18
2. We know who this Kyouko transgender woman is. We know who zhis moderators are. And when gay ops this obvious we can see it. The average won't but we can't
3. This is the hololive thread, when the threadpocalypse arrived, driveby was forbidden and basically only hololive neckbeard goes here. Some people would come for the drama but refrain from making stupid comment still.

Also is the switch a limited run? Why are they releasing it in a lottery system?
I read just before release that there was apparently something like 5 million applicants for the Japanese lottery against 2 million ready to sell units over there. So yeah, it'll probably take them a while to equalise the stock on the Japanese-only version.

I mean if BVTM wants to talk about morality in organized discord activities... let's not forget how he was one of the people who weaponized his own discord to literally raid holoplus when it launched. Very big FAN there for sure!

It seems that the whole thing was mostly genuine, it just that the mention of priority system that rubbed people the wrong way, especially for those who didn't know better or hearing it from people like say, the resident retard BTVM.

Since it wasn't in the BMVT twitter post, the priority is listed like this:

I did looked around (technically skimmed) through mentions of "priority" on that fancord when it happened and most of the people agreed that they should drop it around some hours after it was mentioned, but the guy above pretty much said when asked:

I don't really want to screenshot everything lest it filled proctor's forum HDD space, but from what I gather, the combinations of chaotic attempts to buy tickets where they basically is in discord voice calls just to coordinate things along with what BVTM did caused shit to crumble. He tried his best to defend his ground, but it's clear that people will consider what was supposed to be a community-focused effort into a cascade of disasters thanks to out of context screenshots, unnecessary attempt to raise up morale that rubbed people the wrong way, and well, chaos.

So, to probably no one's surprise, I wasn't able to secure tickets to the live concert. Oh well...at least I can still get the streaming tickets. 2 months should be plenty of time to figure out how the streaming sites work, right? :pippasadl:

I did order the Cecilia plushie, though. Retail therapy: it works! :mikothumbsl:

Clip tax: cute Ina.

So they prioritize themselves? What a crime!
