A few things:
- Some of you may remember me, well over a year ago, discussing ads being placed so that we could donate the funds to Mark/give away items from his store, which never happened due to some unexpected events
- Both arctic_hare and I kind of totally forgot that like, income taxes were a thing (in our defense, we were both unemployed) and your lovely moderator, who was to be in charge of the money, would have been thoroughly screwed had ze made money off of the site and gave it all away to Mark who, as generous as he is, does not qualify as a charity (I'm pretty sure, anyway)
- arctic_hare has been moderating this site for several years now, mostly on zir own, with zero compensation aside from gratitude, and as zir best friend I'm like "TREAT YO SELF" and have finally convinced zir to set up ads and make money off of zir hard work (which, in case you were wondering, I will not be touching)
- I am still technically a moderator of Spoils as it pertains to the actual blog (in fact, all past mods are technically still mods, lol) and am helping your actual moderator implement them. We're testing things out at the moment so bear with us
- We know change is scary and ads are gross but we'll do our best to keep them as unobtrusive as possible
Long story short: *shoves ads in your face to help my best friend*
ETA: Hi everyone! Thanks for all the nice messages and the support!! <3
The thing is, some lovely person(s?) from Ireland* seem to be aggressively clicking, which is very sweet and the estimated earnings has gone waaaay up, but the thing is that Google is smart and will likely count those clicks as invalid and 1) Bunny won't get paid for it and 2) we could get zir account canceled if that keeps happening. I appreciate the effort and the sentiment, as I'm sure arctic_hare does as well, but please don't click too often, okay? Thanks so much! <3
*Zir account has an estimated $5+ earned today and out of that exactly $0.01 has been earned from the United States and the rest is from Ireland and unless we have waaay more Irish people than I thought... :P

I have just started re-reading the series for the umpteenth time, and am very much looking forward to when Mark gets around to reading it. Looking at the list of video commissions has answered one of my questions and raised another:

I got a whole bunch done on Saturday, so ready yourselves for updates over the next couple days! I'm actually right where I left off previously, so I'll finally be digging into new stuff in Witcher 2. SO EXCITED.

This week:
Monday: 5x01: 'Erqhk'
Wednesday: 5x02: 'Erqhk VV'
Friday: 5x03: 'Hahfhny Fhfcrpgf'
I'm going on vacation this week, so the individual episode threads might appear at weird times, and if they aren't around by the time people want to post about a particular episode, just post them yourselves? :)

The original and Pup Named were my favorite shows as kids, and I greatly enjoyed the first couple made-for-video movies from the late 90's. My brother lured me in with the promise that "guvf vf yvgrenyyl gur bayl Fpbbol Qbb jvgu na birenepuvat cybg naq punenpgre qrirybczrag" and also that if I liked Gravity Falls, I would love it.

Were you aware of the idea and/or the term of "social justice" before stumbling into Mark Does Stuff?
Which fanfiction site would you prefer: ao3 (Archive Of Our Own) or Wattpad?
Are there any fellow Filipino/a/xs out there in the Mark Does Stuff community?
Do any of you mention or advertise Mark to only your closest friends online? (Online only, no offline.)
Previous questions can also be answered here too, so here they are:
Other than Mark, which person (like an author, a celebrity, or a celebrity author, etc.) would you want to meet and hang out with in real life?
For cake lovers, what is your favorite kind of cake? (It can be any kind of cake.)
What was a thing (i.e. a blog post, an essay, or a book, etc.) that changed your view of the world in general?
What was the first convention you attended? When was it? How did you get in? What were your first impressions of that con and how did you feel about it?
Have you seen any movies from Studio Ghibli? If so, what was the first movie you've seen by them? (Note that this question also includes any movies that Miyazaki-san has not directed.)
What is your D&D (Dungeons & Dragons) alignment? Note that you don't need to play D&D to know about your alignment. You can find out by taking this questionnaire and see your results there.
When and how did you stumble upon one of Mark's sites? This can count for either or both Reads/Watches.
How many of you are familiar with the Tales franchise?
Which Rei do you guys prefer? Ayanami or Ryugazaki?
When did you first stumble upon or know about Princess Tutu? How?
Have you ever played any of the LittleBigPlanet games for the PS3?

This is a web serial about a teenage girl with super powers. Going to try to get through at least three chapters this week.
You can read the entire serial here: https://parahumans.wordpress.com/table-of-content....
And can download the audiobook version chapter by chapter for free from here: http://audioworm.rein-online.org/
Note: the author basically says to assume ALL the trigger warnings. Especially so far for bullying, control, domestic abuse, and anything insect related, but I'm not even halfway through.

Now includes the 2014 Christmas Special. As it's out, he feels there's no sense in waiting for it, so it's now also available to commission (Mark didn't specify anything beyond that, such as covering the cost of the episode).
I can't personally commission it at the moment, but if it's still available close to the recording time, I'll see what I can do. 8x10 is also still available for commission.

On my blog:
Captain's Log, Weekly Digest 28, 29, 30, and 31: The ongoing chronicle of my Star Trek Online character, Adm. Eilonwy Nerys Morwen. These adventures include the conclusion of my Delta Quadrant adventure, promotion to Fleet Admiral, and the beginnings of an original adventure by yours truly involving trying to avert a new war with the Klingons. (Spoilers for STO definitely, and potentially for any and all Trek.)
Videos: Live Reaction and Vlog Review, Steven Universe Episodes 48-9: In which Steven Universe shifts in my estimation from "really good" to "one of the best shows I've ever seen." Panel: Postmodern Anime at Anime Boston 2015: Video of a panel I gave at AB earlier this year. Vlog Reviews: Gravity Falls S1E1 and E2: Starting to vlog a new show, Disney channel's coming-of-age story/Twin Peaks parody Gravity Falls. At least I think that's what it is so far?
Near-Apocalypse of '09 posts: My exploration and psychochronography of the DCAU continues with You never got a laugh out of the old man (Joker's Favor), Crisis on N Earths (N=1): Cartoon Network, Man to freakshow (Vendetta), and The expert on troubled kids (Fear of Victory), covering, among other things, the first appearance of Harley Quinn, the launch of Cartoon Network, the importance of framing in determining the audience's sympathies, and the return of Scarecrow and the question of whether Batman actually wants to win.
Other stuff: A piece on why I and many other Jews find the term "Judeo-Christian" offensive, a brief review of Inside Out (spoilers!), and an attempt to nail down that je ne sais quoi that, irrespective of quality, makes some cartoons appeal to me much more than others.
On my Patreon:
$2+/mo Patrons got Near-Apocalypse articles covering the infamous anti-comics book Seduction of the Innocent, the Emmy-winning BTAS 2-parter "Robin's Reckoning," and Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.
$5+/mo Patrons got vlogs on Gravity Falls episodes 4, 5, and 6, and Star vs. The Forces of Evil episode 1.
