With a (questionable) W from James Drake, how would you rate season 5 of Fishtank?

  • 1 Star — Absolute disaster. Unwatchable, boring, production fucked it up bad, the fish were lame

    Votes: 58 7.4%
  • 2 Stars — Pretty bad. Some funny moments, dragged, too many vibe repair days. Barely worth checking.

    Votes: 91 11.7%
  • 3 Stars — Average. Solid entertainment in spots, some good chaos and crashouts, but nothing special

    Votes: 177 22.7%
  • 4 Stars — Really good. Lots of hilarious moments, strong fish personalities, solid content and vibes

    Votes: 408 52.2%
  • 5 Stars — Peak Fishtank / Masterpiece. Non-stop insanity, legendary fish and production, pure chaos

    Votes: 47 6.0%

I'm really not sure what's the best here. I'm leaning towards wired since you're going to have to power shit anyhow.
Agreed
Limitations/Constraints of the wire (IE if they are retardedly trying to use CAT cable they are limitted to about 100m lengths at best (That's ~320' in freedom units)
They could use fiber optics cable for the longer distance. That stuff isn't nearly as expensive as it used to be.
Potential hazard of getting knocked down by falling branches (If hung)
Put the cable on the ground and place some boards over it.
 
Wondering if this 10-acre wooded lot has anything to do with the property Nick bought up in Maine (the same one he's building a house on for the Scuffed Realtor stream).

Always thought he was a no-brainer as a consultant on their real estate investments for Fishtank S2, but the day he did the walk-through it seemed pretty obvious he'd never seen the house or been there before.

I got corrected in the chat, it's actually 60-acres and the mentioned 10-acres is just a single section of it
 
They should postpone if needed, but they already asked participants to set aside time so they've already wasted others' time and inconvenienced people. Now when it goes live there will be a reasonable expectation for things to work on day 1 and things won't if wigger history is anything to go off of, so there is inevitable disappointment they've set themselves up for.

It is obvious that they talk about a lot of "cool ideas" but don't ponder implementation or do any dry runs before committing to them. Before announcing anything or looking for participants they should have done some tests to make sure they can pull this off at a technical level and factored in inclement weather, health concerns, etc.

For my usual griping, have any of these guys been to a summer camp, let alone taken care of people doing activities outdoors? There's always someone who doesn't drink enough water, people who aren't used to the weather get sapped quickly, critters get into things, bugs are a major pain, someone has an allergic reaction, etc. Something like a sprained ankle is much more likely if they have people active at night in the woods, then what? If someone is fatally allergic to bee stings but doesn't know it, do you have a plan?
Also those "12 hour days" they're working, too bad, so sad, no one cares and it doesn't show. Their time management is nonexistent and there's probably a lot more fooling around than any hard work if the pictures are anything to go by. Those "16 hour days" working on the season 1 edit resulted in terrible output and they don't even pretend otherwise.

These morons could vlog the setup to build hype and allow people to laugh at goofy fuckups but they can't even make this a fun process. The fans have no idea what's really going on and that's because production doesn't either.

thats a lot more common nowadays with how much of a sellers market it is, plus with the internet you can have a virtual walkthrough, in general because everything gets brought so quickly you don't have time to wait. And almost everyone buys something a fuck load further away from them than is reasonable (usually because of white flight)

You'd probably want to burry it a little bit in some pvc pipe for what you can run underground. If you just leave it on the ground and not have it protected enough inevitably with the level of retardation going on someone is somehow going to step on and bend/pinch the wire and potentially fuck it up. If you don't enclose the fiber optics too moisture could be an issue with it fucking things up is another concern, fiber optics is more common now but the shit for outdoors is probably more pricey. I do agree fiber optics is probably the way to go though. Only concern is if they use their old cameras they probably don't support direct fiber optic connections and I'm honestly not aware of any surveilance systems that use fiber optics connections directly! I think it's safe to assume though the existing cameras they use or would have to use would be Ethernet based as far as what they require.

So basically they are going to have to have (ideally NEMA3R) enclosures for converters at the cameras and power for all devices involved in some capacity.

Aditionally if they hang the cabling under a supporting metal tension line like aircraft cable or whatever they can have that take the brunt of any damage if something falls on it from above. This trick is actually used by some ISPs/Cable/Telecomm companies.

Depending on just how long this shit show runs for they may not need the outdoor stuff though.

Really I'd only waste time running shit underground if it would be on camera hanging from the trees. Our eyes aren't the contestants eyes, and really them seeing some wires isn't that big of a deal.
 
Season 3 but it's Jon, Jimmy, Simmons and Dungay locked in a room and whoever gets molested or attacked first gets eliminated.

They can connect the cameras in local groups within a 100m radius with normal coax to a router convert to fiber and send it all the way to base.
They don't need much Fiber, so they could go for the armored outdoors type.
There is no need to burry these outdoor Fiber or Coax cables or at most deep enough so you don't trip over them.
 
just based on the pics Jet has been posting, there's too many trees to do a lot of digging anyway. Those cable burying devices used on golf courses and manicured lawns wouldn't take.
I just checked and armored Fiber cable, the type that's basically a water proof steel and aramid rope costs under $1 per meter.
Just have it lie on the ground and secure the section right before the router and you are good.
Nobody is going to accidentally rip apart one of these cables.

They all team up on Simmons, Jon may show some initial hesitation about this. Then Dumgay and Jimmy attack Jon eventually, he probably holds his ground pretty well against the 2 tards, but ultimately is beaten. Then Jimmy goes into a lengthy monolgue about him being unable to turn against his fellow season cast mate after all they've been through while Dumgay makes call-and-response type validations (ex: "Mmmmmhm!" "Dats tru!") After which, Jimmy drops to his knees and willingly succumbs to black freeloader.

There would be some consternation at the start as I don't think Duany'ay knows what Simmons looks like or is especially familiar with his whole deal. There would be an interesting phase of Jimmy spluttering about, "fuckin little girls, huh?! grooming kids at camp, huh?!" and not actually landing any useful blows before the air is clear enough that Jon and Duany'ay would decide he's actually in the right and that they should be helping.

My favorite version of this was one someone posted that was, which of the women from fishtank would win in a hunger games scenario

I forget the details, basically it went like, girls team up on Tayleigh to kill her, Letty Meg and Sylvia die due to not being as strong, Betty kills herself, in the finale of Ella, Jackie, CK, Bex and whoever else Jimmy appears in the arena and kills the finalists

Sensei Scott hosted a little Family Feud with Season 1 and 2 contestants

Team 1: Josie, Vance, Sylvia
Team 2: Tay, Brian, TJ
Team 3: Letty

It's pretty funny, I feel like they're all having a good time with each other.
I know I'm kind of late, but I LOL'D so hard when they did the draw fatty naked challenged and when they all revealed what they drew you couldn't see TJ's drawing because he drew it so lightly :lol:

Or just use coaxial instead.
 
There's been a lot of good advice posted here but too bad that they probably don't read KF and are also retarded so even if they were messaged with the advice they would be unlikely to take it and would just find some other way to do it shittily.
