So... As you can probably tell, my plan to restart this blog failed... Rather drastically. And that's not on you guys at all! It's totally on me. The truth is, I just don't have the time and energy to run it, at least not steadily.
This is especially sticky since it kind of runs in a loop. The Venturiantale gang is hilarious, and every video is just packed to the brim with funny little quips and one liners and sibling moments that should be shared! But since they're so packed to the brim, I feel like I have to save and queue all of them. But everytime I decide to save something, it requires me to pause the video, type what I remember, switch back over to the video, replay the scene, switch back over to the post, edit what I've written, switch back over to check the name of the video, triple check the quote, etc. etc. etc. Every. Single. Quote. And as I said, every video is packed to the brim with funny moments.
What this means is that a half hour video can easily run into over three hours of saving time and I just don't have the time and energy for that.
So what does this mean for the blog? Well... I'm not sure. Whatever happens I want it to at least stay up, even if I don't add anything more to it. But I still think that more people should know the funny quips and moments that VT has to offer.
I've come up with three possible solutions.
1) Opening up mod applications. The mod would have to be a semi-regular VT watcher with either time on their hands or a much better auditory memory than I have. The benefits would be that I could still add some quotes when I have the time, but people would still be getting regular content.
2) Somehow finding a way to give this blog to a fellow adventurer. Ideas I have include changing the name slightly so someone else can have the old name, and then they can reblog my posts and then start up a new queue. The benefits would be similar to the above, but with the added bonus of unfettered access to whoever inherits.
3) Drastically reducing the amount of quotes I pull from a video at a time. And by this I mean only pulling one quote from a video as I watch it. The benefits would be that I think that would relieve some of the pressure on me to get all the good quotes, but it might end up being that you get repeat quotes if I forget that I've posted it before.
4) Set up a queue of previous posts in a circle so that when I do add new content it just gets filtered into reblogged old posts. I personally dislike when blogs do this but if you'd rather have old content than no content, I'd be happy to do it for you.
5) Label the blog as inactive and just let it sit as is. I hate to do this, but unless something else gives I rather feel like I'm beating a dead (or at least very sick) horse. It's just not fair to anyone involved.
Let me know which option you prefer, guys, and if anyone has any interest in modding or inheriting the blog, please please let me know. I'd be more than happy to work something out.
Well, I think that's all I had to say. Until later, y'all,
