Dusting Off the Old Files: Episode 2 and "Confession" without vocals

I uploaded the second installment of Dusting Off the Old Files two hours ago (oops).

I have received this question from my devoted stalker...um, I mean fan, Ace Lucario.

Q: "Any plans later, Gil?"

I replied with the following:

A: "Actually, yes. Early this month, Daniel and I began the production of our own Barney movie that focuses on the aftermath of the review. Of course, that means it probably won't be on this channel for several months at most.

I also am intending to do a commentary on a video I found that claims that Islam is evil, and I'm currently working on a rant about modern society.

These plans, however, are being pushed back because of school, college, and the fact that Daniel and I have tons of unedited videos. I'm just trying to get those out of the way before I do anything else that I want to get done."

Let this be a reminder to everyone that I'm far from having drained all of my video ideas. I'm just finishing up unfinished projects so that way I won't have to worry about them later.

Anyway, here's the video:

"Dusting Off the Old Files: Puyallup Fair Adventures!"

Also, since so many of you have watched my video of "Confession" (a whopping 3 views as of writing this), I've decided to post a video featuring no vocals, just in case anyone was unimpressed by my singing voice.

Here it is:

Thanks for your support, and take care. :)

A New Song: "Confession"

I began writing this song on January 2, 2014, though I didn't finish writing it until yesterday. Most of that is due to my ever-busying schedule, although I find it funny that I still can post these kinds of videos on whatever time I have left.

I actually recorded my singing voice for this one, and, hopefully, after you listen to it, you'll understand why I don't usually post things with me singing to begin with. Just trust me.

Thanks for watching, enjoy, and take care. :)

New Video: Dusting Off the Old Files (Episode 1)

This is the video I mentioned earlier. I hope you enjoy it.

Expect many videos in this series. Seriously.

New Series: Dusting Off the Old Files

There will be a video posted today showcasing the first episode of a new series called "Dusting Off the Old Files," where I edit and post videos that I filmed a long time ago that I couldn't get to edit at the time it was filmed. Sometimes, it can be years after filming. Other times, it's only after a few months. Either way, these videos had been gathering dust, and so this series will dust them off.

The first episode in this series, which is a rant about children playing M-rated shooter games, was originally filmed on the afternoon of December 18, 2012. Be patient, for it will be uploaded soon.

Thanks for your support, and take care. :)

A PSA? From Me? Sure, Whatever.

Just a quick one here. I needed to say it here and now.

Barney Movie In Production!

On January 4, 2014, at 3:33 PM PT, Three Losers with a Camera has begun filming a movie about the aftermath of the Barney review series, documenting the experiences of the three reviewers as they try to defeat Barney in their psyches. We're trying to make this at most a full-length film, so production will definitely take several months. Please be patient.

Take care. :)

New Video is a Series of Confessions

To start off 2014, I've decided to let you guys know:
  • whether or not I'm a furry.
  • my true thoughts on the Internet Rules Rant.
  • my sexuality.
I'm not doing this for publicity, but rather to help get the big elephant off of my chest. This will serve as a test for my fans and friends. If you leave because of anything I confess in the video, you will have failed. If you stay even after everything I say in the video, you will have passed.

I expect most of my fans and friends to leave after they watch the video, but we'll see.

Thanks for watching, and take care.

Happy 2014! (Plus some random stuff about my current viewership)

Holy shit. Is it 2014 now? Great, I guess now I have to post a happy message here on every single national holiday celebrated in the USA.

Well, it's 2014. SpaceGuru5 has almost existed for 5 years now.

What the hell happened to those 5 years!?

I became SpaceGuru5 literally 9 days after I turned 12. At first, it was a very secretive channel—it came into existence entirely due to my sister setting up the channel for me. She set my age back then to 14 years old, which is why I can now view 18+ videos even though I'm only 16—though, as you can probably tell, it's become quite public over the last 5 years. Sure, I have 255,691 views on all of my videos now, but keep in mind I have 157 videos.

255,691 views / 157 videos = 1,628.605096 views / video ~ 1,629 views / video

If I got 1,629 views on my videos, though, I think I'd shit myself, because the average number of views I get nowadays is nowhere near that number. Maybe it was possible back in 2011, when I was hugely popular, but now I have a tough time getting videos to reach 500 views, let alone 1,629.

Wanna know how many views I have for my 2013 videos? As of 1:58 PM on January 1, 2014, that number is 1,995 views. Yeah, 1,995 views over the span of 365 days and 19 videos. Seems like a lot, right? Well, let's do the math:

1,995 views / 365 days = 5.465753425 views / day ~ 5 views / day

1,995 views / 19 videos = 105 views / video

Pretty small numbers, right? Now, let's look at videos I made in 2011. As of 2:01 PM on January 1, 2014, I have 15,093. Let's do the math here:

15,093 views / 365 days = 41.35068493 views / day ~ 41 views / day

15,093 views / 43 videos = 351 views / video

So, over 3 years,...

2011                                   2014
41 views / day                    5 views / day                         100% – 12.19512195% = 87.80487805%
351 views / video               105 views / video                  100% – 29.9145299% = 70.0854701%

Basically, I've lost 78.94517408%, or about 79%, of my audience from 2011, which means that, if I had 100 viewers in 2011, I only have about 21 of those same viewers now.

So, to the 21% of you that are still watching my content from 2011, thank you for your patience. I appreciate your kindness that you have reserved for some weird old curmudgeon like me.

To the 79% of you that have stopped watching my content since 2011, was I just not good enough for you? What the hell were you expecting from a lower-middle class teenage Mexican American high school student? Obviously, you can't expect great work from someone like me.

Anyway, Happy 2014, and take care. :)

P.S. Don't even bother making a resolution, because you'll end up going back to apathy within a week anyway.
