What A Month It's Been

Things have been incredibly hectic, but I reached a minor milestone (at least in base 10) when I passed 50,000 subscribers on youtube. Frankly I find this amazing but It's nice to know people like what I do. On the other had I started to self censor a bit and decided that maybe not everyone wants to listen to me and Marlona Sky talking for an hour about Eve Online and how he's going to let people kill him in a supercarrier as part of a competition to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the game. So if you're a subscriber and really did want to know about this then make some noise, I think we might start a regular Eve Online podcast type thing because there's always so much going on. Anyway, the reusable space program proceeds, I've got an interplanetary rocket design which I think you might like, but that didn't make it into this episode. What did make the episode what a horrendous mistake on my part where I left infinite fuel enabled from a previous 'muck around' so I flew one of the landing operations without noticing that I wasn't burning up fuel. Very embarrassing when you consider that all this messing around on the Mun is about giving myself a good fuel supply.... To celebrate the 50k and apologize for my infinitie fuel gaffe I'm running my biggest giveaway yet - 5 winners this time! a Rafflecopter giveaway

    1. Are you talking about the raffle entries? There's a general 'name' field that you can set to whatever you like, but you need to get the youtube/twitter/facebook names right if you want credit.

  7. Cheater Cheater !!!

    only joking i watch it for the entertainment anyways scott its all in good fun i know that all the craft in question had way more dV than was needed

    iv got a lot of helpful stuff from watching you but i made everything on myn stock apart from the fuel transfer and kethane stuff so my mobile base uses the stock rover wheels they work really well just have to remember to invert some of the wheels in your train or some wierd twisting starts to happen when u turn

    i get really gd fps its getting there just added a tower lighting mod with some sol panels i only have 1 issue with myn that i over looked the large kethane converter module lifts the center up off the landing legs when its turned on when i built it didnt know it expands out when its active its funny as hell to watch on min with the ultra low grav

    just an extra note i have that wierd bug that destroys ships when you approach a landed craft with a ground vehicle and i dont use or have that robotic arm it must be something else that causes it

      i got everything down with ease i stole your crane style ship with the 4 nuke engines on it

  8. Haha, I always take time out of my day to watch your videos. They're fun, entertaining, and on the occasion informative! Yeah, learning, woo! xP

    Also, there's something about that voice that just latches me. In an brilliant way, may I say, haha.

    I hope you don't plan to stop making videos anytime soon, because I would have one less person on YouTube I can consider a favorite! :D

    Cheers, and many exciting KSP videos to come!

    1. guess we just have to wait for it to sort its self out

      scott might have to do something with it before it says who won

    2. I need to get the widget to pick winners, and then I need to filter out the 'winners' who didn't actually enter correctly. Some are making playlists that don't actually include any qualifying videos.

      Delete
    3. The 'playlist' option specifically requires the creation of a playlist containing videos from my channel, I rejected 2 'winners' because they didn't even have a playlist.

    4. lol wouldn't know where to so start to make a playlist but that been said if you uploaded a load of videos i didn't have time for at that moment that i would need such a thing or have time to mess with and sort out in the first place

      well id just watch them directly from your channel

      i often don't bother with useless things and personal playlists on youtube are def in the category of useless once somethings watched its watched and if i needed to watch something again id just go directly to the source

      after all i can go to your channel and watch every ep of reusable space program from start to finish tehe

      Delete
