DSP was in Uselessness, a top tier faction, when the leaks first started coming out. A lot of the top factions seem to have a "family", with feeder factions for lower levels (people who already maxed their CCs.) For big events, it seemed normal for top spenders to leave their current factions and team up. That all came crashing down when a gang of internet trolls decided to fuck with Phil's life behind the scenes, and he was ostracized from the top faction community, forced to live out his days with the poors in a sub 100 faction.

Christ, all that shit just to get sweaty man jpegs. It's almost funny if people weren't ruining their lives over it.

Don't forget he has NO sense of loyalty either. As soon as he found a new higher faction he trotted his hooves as fast as he could, only to scurry back to his old low tier faction once he was run out of that one like the pigroach he is.

I love it when a troll with high standards tries to keep his lolcow fame to a certain level.
what troll would harm a lolcow's name? I mean come on, let's be real.

the dude is almost 40 and can't even play pretend on the internet.
you don't even have to bait him at this point.
 
I thought Phil still showed up as "TheyCallMeDSP" in chats though, because the custom renaming hack-job Scopely did wasn't thorough.

Has anyone checked it out? Is the spending about to double?

The bank leaks prove that Phil is spending every spare penny he has on a combination of Doordash, gacha, and whatever those huge Fred Meyer's bills are (they could be iTunes gift cards but could just as easily be home furnishings or electronics since it is also a hypermarket). He might play this game, it might even become his new favorite one over Champions, but there just is not enough wiggle room in his budget to spend much more on this stuff- he might be OK with cutting back on takeout for even more gacha but I doubt Kat is.

He does. "TheyCallMeDSP" in this conversation is the real one and "DarkSydePhil" is the ween.

Assuming this isn't shooped or out-of-context it looks like Phil is giving the mods the same lie he told his whales, that he isn't DSP for real and it's all just a huge coincidence, but still refuses to prove it. He's also openly mentioning the Farms which fits well with Phil but not with some Internet rando. We're e-infamous in many Internet circles but we're not a household name by any stretch.

Edit: Phil is cavalier and demanding enough in that chat that I imagine he's been in there for a while and the mods realize he is an ultra-whale. He was way more courteous and deferential when he was constantly getting booted and most guilds would not touch him with a ten-foot poll. It sure would be a shame if things wound up like that again :epik::epik::epik:

Edit x2 to avoid a double post:
Slightly meta/off topic but the Wall Street Journal did a piece on the economics of the Apple App Store and I thought it would fit in here.

The Wall Street Journal has been covering the civil suits against Apple in depth (fun fact - the App Store means Apple makes more off of videogames than MS, Activision, Sony, and Nintendo combined!) and they inevitably got around to the issue of micropayments. Most of the article was written to help explain some of the issues in the ongoing suits but there was some useful data on the App Store in there (all these numbers are approximate) that helps illustrate why Scopely loves Phil and Apple loves Scopely:

* 6 percent of all App Store users account for 88% of profits.
* 1 percent of all App Store users account for 64% of profits.
* The average 1%er (I know that's an OWS term but it works here) spends $2,964/year.

Doing some really crude math I estimate that the top 6% spend $680/person/year while the top 2-6% (as in, people in the 6% but not the 1%) spend only $150/person/year and the bottom 94% pay $6/person/year. So as you go down in percentile, spending drops fast. This lines up with another piece I read saying that a large chunk of F2P players do not spend anything at all.

Now let's bring this back to Phil. The bank leaks show he spends on average about $2,000 a month on this stuff or $24,000/year for eight times the average whale and he's going to do it forever because it's f2p. He's such a whale compared to the overall playerbase that it makes perfect sense for Scopely to protect him as much as they have, he might literally be one in a million as far as Apple players go.

Is there a particular reason why you bring that up now?
This shit is like 3 year old news.
 
You can watch loot opening videos on Youtube, but I decided to blast all my F2P cash that I had saved on some of those, I'll post my experience (no video because that's going to be a pain).
  • Started with +8K in cash:
1) Spent 2394 cash on 6 pulls of Bianca Belair's Loot:
Bianca.png
Bianca1.png

Got trash except for Carmella which is "Very Rare", probably the best item in all of this but I think I got really lucky. Despite the percentages, it seems like a miracle to get anything above rare.
They say Asuka (the green one) is not bad, but it's nearing the lowest level. As for those shards, for my F2P account they're completely useless.

2) 2995 cash on 5 pulls of The Rock's Electrifying Loot:

Trash.

3) 2388 cash on 12 pulls of Justin Bradshaw "Acolytes Protection Agency" Loot:
Justin.png
Justin1.png

I got @The Penultimate Warrior, Farooq and chinese man.

This was just my experience this time, if I were to do it again I bet all I'd get is repeated posters. It's what normally happens when you do the Silver league loot (for free players, if they manage to get the daily coins).

I also noticed this, you'd think there would be an incentive for spending more cash on bigger packs, but no. 1 pull still costs 599 even if you go all out.

I felt the gacha rush when opening the packets, ending in disappointment, good thing I didn't spend anything on it. Now imagine droppping 200$ one day on Champions, they should put a suicide prevention line on display just in case.

Yeah its interesting how not dsp behaves exactly like someone trying to protect dsp's ego, not someone who's just caught up in a random similar username situation.

Why would not dsp give a shit if people were making fun of dsp if he supposedly doesnt even know who darksydephil is?

"I'm not this streamer you guys keep accusing me of being and I've never heard of him before but please be nice to him and dont make fun of him"

And I know this is an old discussion we've already went over a million times but it is amazing how phil cant even pretend to be a random person who isn't aware of dsp without sucking dsp's dick the entire time.
 
I may be retarded and late or a lazy faggot, but what is the new running total since the leaks as to what DSP has sank into this pixel parade?

We don't have a hard number because there is no way of knowing how much of the Fred Meyer's spending is iTunes gift cards - I don't believe for a second he is spending thousands a month on food but I also can't prove that the high spending is iTunes gift cards or that all the iTunes spending is Champions specifically.

@Prince Lotor calculated that Phil spent $39,000 between March 2018 and January 2020 (when we discovered the account) based on his level - apparently there is no way to get these via grinding and this figure does not include any spending he did in his first ~year of playing (March 2017-Feb. 2018). This is a minimum and we can't rule out more whaling.

If you assume all the iTunes spending is on this game and none of his $1,000/month Fred Meyer's bills are going towards it then he is spending $2,000 a month based on the bank documents. So that's $22,000 in 2020 plus another $19,000 this year to date (I am assuming that October is halfway over) for a total of $41,000 or a bare minimum of $80,000 total. If we extrapolate a bit he'll hit the $100,000 mark by August of next year.

To be clear these are very conservative estimates and he may have spent way more than I am claiming, we just have no way of knowing for certain.

I still don't think there's any reason for Phil to be buying gift cards to pull for Hogan. He has absolutely no problem pulling for thousands of dollars at a time right off his bank account, and presumably Paypal too. And his mature adult wife doesn't see any of these details, presumably. Why would he buy cards right under her nose and show off how much money he's spending on himself instead of her?

If anything, it's more likely that he's buying pulls for her on her mobile games because her finances are too busted to do it herself.

That's what I think too. The "grocery" bills on off days are all for paying Catherine's tithe to keep her in the gout fort.

But, why does Phil separate his gacha pulls between his bank and his Paypal? We know the bank leaks are only a small percentage of his gacha spending.

I agree. What I think is really happening is that he is getting cash back when he is grocery shopping (let's say 100.00 each time) and buying lottery tickets or scratch offs with it. Unless Washington doesn't have any lottery.

At my grocery store I can take out up to 200 USD when I use my debit card.

Seems like a DSP thing to do.
