So now there's 3 outcomes:
1. The "trial" doesn't work out and OIC's status gets revoked, leading to him funneling thousands more into DSP
2. We get some underwhelming betrayal to highlight how pointless this whole thing is
3. OIC becomes a genuine, full-time mod that causes extreme detractor salt with his every appearance
I see no bad results here
As much as I loathe discussing OIC, I'm a sucker for endless Phil speculation.
I'm going with number 2. But unintentionally, and not for at least like, a year or two. OIC is going to follow the usual mod formula, he'll keep throwing money at Phil in the honeymoon stage, but once he's settled in as a mod, he'll slow down and just enjoy being king of the playground. He won't have to rely on money to get attention and instead stir up chat drama so he has an excuse to crack down on people and get his power rush.
But, eventually him and Phil will disagree over something stupid, like a game OIC genuinely enjoys that Phil shits on, or enough people (probably with some mod support) will cry to Phil about OIC enough times where Phil finally has to do something about it. OIC will feel like a betrayed spouse and try to spin it like he was always a detractor and this was all part of his plan. He'll come here promising some elaborate leaks, which ultimately end up being incredibly overwhelming and just highlights how much of his money/time/life OIC wasted. But, he'll linger and try to fit in cause he gets a few asspats from people, but not enough to satisfy him so he fades into obscurity and finds some smaller detractor channel on Twitter or Discord to fit in with, trying to chase the attention high he got from Phil's channel.
And just for some more speculation, he'll get doxed, turn out to be 30-35 years old, working some unimportant, middle management tier job where he barely interacts with anyone, but pulls in 30-40k a year, just enough to live off of while funneling money into Phil if he carefully budgets. Deeper digging will find posts about him defending autistic people because he has some form of it, but the highlight is when Nigel swoops in and posts a combo of OIC admitting to being a furry, then showing pictures from several years ago where he was dating some hideous girl, with us speculating they broke up because of his Phil obsession. Fast forward a few months and OIC is mostly forgotten about and only gets brought up in passing when we compare him to whatever new pay piggy has stepped up to fill the void. Expect lots of "Well, that other dude, OICK or whatever managed to buy modship, maybe this new guy will get modded after 100 more superchats."
