I kinda feel bad for Canadian Producer Tim who gleefully partook in organizing that channel and its livestreams. He really seemed to be buying into that mgtow stuff and looked up to Drex like some sort of mentor. That's the kind of impression I got from that dynamic on the channel.

The entire channel and discord is acting like camelot and lofti combined. They share their it totally happened stories and puff their chest and everyone back pats like they all totally believe it (tim does this too if anyone has ever watched a migtown episode). If anyone watched nick's recent stream where dick grilled lofti on whether lofti is really a party animal like he claims and lofti just falls apart and looked obviously lying to anyone listening. It's like that without the grilling part. Like a safe space for mgtow lol.

Basically, Drexel's ideal world would quickly become a place where men are just cogs in a machine and trannies will become highly desired as surrogates. He doesn't understand the value of family because he's an idiot.

He's a nigger!

Hey what the fuck ever happened to Rekieta's totally real friend's totally real murdered father? Any updates on this totally real crime?

The possibly politically motivated murder of Nick's "brother"'s stepdad in a 3rd world country?

Nick's good friend is on the case:

It's a shame none of the Titan sub passengers were a Youtuber. He could've milked the distant psychic connection to another fallen Creator and somehow related that back to his own problems. "His money was so heavy and burdenous that the sub had so much weight and couldn't come back up!" Splat.

why watch this video?

As Drex said in that very video: “These guys have a humiliation fetish”. Nick’s whole commentary throughout was nothing more than him telling on himself & enjoying it too much.

Nick wanted to show this to win an Academy Award at "how grossed out he is by cucking"

nick is not a good actor. a great liar because his is a lawyer, but not a good actor. an actor can inhabit a persona and you can't tell the difference between the actor and the character. a liar can only do it in a situational conversation because the liar has developed internal logic to justify his stance during the conversation.

in this situation, nick is grossed out but cucking because he has convinced himself that swinging is not cucking. if a bull is plowing his wife and he is banging a wine mom or a dude (nick radiates bi vibes), it cancels each other out, and therefore, no cucking has taken place. in the video they were watch, the cuck literally said he did not want to bang other women, only for this gf and himself to get into threesomes with other dudes. because there are no woman involved for the cuck, the cuck is a cuck.

according to nick's logic, if he gets nothing and only the dudes with his wife happens, that equates to cucking. cucking by dudes with his wife will cancel out by him doing sex with other people. therefore no cucking has occurred.

BELIEVE ME! MY NUMBERS ARE BETTER!

I'm betting that he thinks this is laying the groundwork for him to get his contract renewed. "Look at how good my numbers are Rumble!"

I wonder if Rumble knows that their view counts are inflated. Do they realize it's a bug or do they think the numbers are real?

THey know what their numbers are, at least some people in the stack do. There was a public spat between the owners of Odysneed and Rumble just as Rumble was doing their... merge to go public? (It was not just an IPO, it was some sort of shenigans.) Team Odysneed stated that Rumble was inflating their numbers, Rumble said nuh uh. I think they dropped it (cheaper than a lawsuit), and ultimately Rumble went public. There was a short forum thread:

Ironically, the kiwifarms.net was the first search hit that came up on brave search. More info from here:

Key bit from Odysneed:

In summary, yes Rumble's metrics are garbage, but probably not multiplier garbage.

but probably not multiplier garbage

Except for the 6x multiplier they applied to my unlisted funeral stream and the two test streams before it.

I am in 100% agreement that Rumble inflates their numbers somehow. Whether that's a multiplier or using bots or something more bizarre, Julian (or Moloch or Lauren Southern or whoever runs Odysneed) has a bit more credence to me over a small test. Whether it's bots linked to an API or just an integer multiplier, we won't know without access to the back end.

Regardless of how it's done, Rumble's video view stats don't line up with their corresponding engagement, which was the point. You would expect some drop off as compared to Youtube, since people can watch without an account on all, and it's more friction to sign up to Rumble (or Odysneed) than it is to youtube (where most people have an account of some sort) to post/rate. But the difference is huge.

Also Rumble is retarded for their stupid "every time you post live, add a new key" bullshit. Given that level of idiocy, I wouldn't be surprised to find out it's just a multiplier, but I'm more inclined to believe they're fudging the books in a more opaque manner on the back end. edit: but most likely, it's just a bug or a different manner of counting.

It will be insightful to see what happens to Rackets wrt Rumble and if he's re-signed to Rumble. Perhaps more insightful if not, as we will see how he does on youtube (until he's banned). At least that will be an apples to apples comparison.

Edit: all the above is hypothetical. I have no inside knowledge and can only see the same numbers as any other member of the public.

I have a few theories as to how this happens, but they are all pretty much scandals for Rumble. The options I can think of are:
1. They count total unique connections that make requests on that page as unique viewers. That would be a 20-50x inflation of numbers.
2. They add to the counter when a new IP connects, but don't subtract until a very long timeout occurs, causing everyone on a cell phone to be at least 5-10 "viewers."
3. They use some sort of tracking cookie that has a major bug. Rumble has stored a cookie on my (logged out) computer, so this is a possibility.
4. They are fudging the numbers, probably with some linear scale factor or a more complicated formula (not just a constant).

None of this is particularly good for the company, but counting users is actually kind of hard. The YouTube viewer count is likely pretty accurate because it uses Google's hyper-invasive and very accurate tracking system, but Rumble is definitely far off.

It may be time to do some experiments... especially if anyone has other theories.

The only thing I can think of, and I don't know if this is possible, when you drag your mouse over the videos on the home page and it starts playing, could Rumble be counting those as views?

Google does, if it exceeds 5 seconds.

4. They are fudging the numbers, probably with some linear scale factor or a more complicated formula (not just a constant).

I'd be leaning more towards this out of all the options presented. If it were me I'd have some sort of semi-randomized multiplier for starting viewership and then as the legitimate views get higher this multiplier would scale down before eventually reaching 1. In my case, granted it's an extremely limited anecdote, it was exactly 6x each time so they don't start out randomized. But if they did start with some multiplier that drops off it would be a good strategy.

People just starting out would get some sense of encouragement that they are actually getting some level of viewership, albeit small. This would inspire them to keep at it and perhaps they eventually do pick up actual viewers. More content for the site. Whereas in reality they are streaming to like 3 people for a month straight and would have given up by now.

Start at a 6x multiplier, and drop by 1x for every 5k views and the numbers start to make a lot more sense. 35k viewers would become 110k.

Not to mention that the Rumble social accounts can put out infographics about their top creator's views to garner more visitors, potential content creators, and in the long run investors

Yes and it's annoying when perusing recommends a bit too lazily, inevitably History ends up with some interesting results that I don't even recall having seen listed. Not too many, but enough to be confused about what someone else was watching on another device (shared results from other family members on set tops, etc). For the most part, it's accurate though.

Google tracking is insidious. Because so many admins use GA/Google Adwords, which GA uses scripts for, that means their code runs on most websites and they have most of the web pegged. Even calling up their fonts will run a script and one would have to be pretty naive to believe they aren't using those statistics to beef up their data. It can be easily justified to say they must pull device data in order to load the appropriate font for the best experience possible. Debate over, simps won back. I remember one time taking a plane trip with Google Location History enabled and it actually noted in my history which plane number I took, at which time and what airport I left and landed at in Google Location History. Completely pointless for my usage (obviously I know what plane I was on!) but they thought it important to note. Androids also track footsteps and when riding in a car using the accelerometer, iirc. FB keeps shadow profiles on non-users when admins dubiously include their commenting platform on their websites, so they also manage to build a similar data cache across the web.

I say all this shit to say: that Youtube is only accurate by virtue of the other unrelated tracking that goes on across the web tracking our devices and every move in the real world.

Rumble is a shoestring refugee video platform. It likely conveniently tracks everything and anything to count as views. There's no profit motive in being accurate with their numbers. They may choose to be technically accurate using some very literal method, but still run through the results and represent them in a disingenuous manner. I agree with the other person on here who mentions chat usage. User engagement numbers are the best metric for tracking the health of a channel regardless of count accuracy. Rekieta won't care anyway as long as he gets paid and can use the inflated charts to self-promote. "Everyone's doing it!"
