It's Time For The First Weekly Whiskey Media Happy Hour, Live! - General Discussion

Posted by Brad (2684 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

Hey there. Are you free on this lovely Friday afternoon? Are you a member of the Whiskey Media family of fine websites? Yeah? In that case, do you have anything blindingly awesome to do at 4pm Pacific Daylight Time?

You bet your sweet derriere you do. It's time for our first weekly live Happy Hour!

After the resounding success of last week's Big Live Live Show Live, we figured there might be something to this whole live-video format, so we're making it a weekly thang. Join us on the couch as we recap the events of the last week, talk about what all is new around here, abuse our green screen in previously unexplored ways, and, uh, drink.

Hey, what the hell else would you do at a happy hour? Fair warning: we haven't exactly done one of these before, so I'm sure there will be a little of that Whiskey™ brand of controlled chaos while we figure this thing out as we go. Please grab your spirit of choice, situate yourself in front of a computer screen, and figure it out along with us!

CLICK HERE TO GET HAPPY

NOTE that the weekly Happy Hour is available exclusively to members only. If that's you, head on over to our live video page around 4pm PDT and punch in the short code you see on your screen to view the live stream and jump into the chat. If you aren't a member yet, hey, what better time to sign up and take part in the madness like young Trixee here? The clock is ticking! 90 minutes and counting! Operators are standing by!

NOTE ALSO that the link to the video page won't be active till shortly before the show starts, so don't fret or nothin'.

#20 Posted by Dany (7877 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

FYI, I can't be happy because the link doesn't work yet.

#21 Posted by Vorbis (2746 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

404 and an error about encrypted channel on the video in the article. Suck!

#23 Posted by embef (27 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

404!

#24 Posted by shadyspace (457 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

Hey, maybe the chat'll actually allow me to comment this time.

#25 Edited by Sergotron (372 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

Nice, I am down. It is usually slow here at the office on Fridays anyway.

#26 Posted by GideonAmos (150 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

Well, I'm gonna miss this because you guys haven't set up Paypal yet as payment method :(

#27 Posted by CharlesAlanRatliff (5226 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

Awesome! Hopefully this will get more people to subscribe.

#28 Posted by AlwaysBeClothing (1279 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

I hope the chat issue from yesterday was related to however they're doing sub vs non sub users. Otherwise, I hope at least I can watch the dern thing.

#29 Posted by sommer.derek@gmail.com (26 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

i like how downloading videos on giant bomb isn't a cluster fuck, already got my moneys worth

#30 Posted by kratier (223 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

sad, this site has seriously gone down in quality since the launch of p2p service...

how much money do you honestly think you could farm off 3000 reoccuring viewers?

#31 Posted by Meltbrain (2935 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

Oh. Awesome! Totally stoked!

#32 Posted by Necrotoxin (138 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

404 is not my friend.

#33 Posted by Cyborgmatt (92 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

@Dany: Justin.tv has a passworded stream option, so at a guess that's what they're going to be using for the time being tbh.

#34 Edited by Refactored (24 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

@Insectecutor & @Vorbis:
Much appreciated, will be well on my way to drunksville for it so. Cheers.

peer 2 peer? what do you mean? Also, if you pay for something that is usually free, their are some perks that might go along with it. That is all this is, perks for those that pay.

#37 Posted by chem (157 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

Dude, I wanna be a cute girl!

#38 Posted by RobotHamster (3948 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

I want to join but first I'll see what you guys have to say about the live show.

Also, for anyone who got the t-shirt whats the size difference between medium and large, I don't know which to choose if/once I sign up.

#39 Posted by Tosus (1 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

I'm ecstatic not to lose the complete show as a non-subscriber, but I'm still trying to find room in my budget to pay for you guys. The mobile site and HD video is very enticing.

This

#41 Posted by Cyborgmatt (92 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

The link is probably down until they get everything setup, there's plenty of time to go yet.

It's a scam man, I signed up and I don't have tits yet :(

#43 Posted by Cyborgmatt (92 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

@RobotHamster: There's a sizing guide on the cart page, which guidelines what their sizes represent.

#44 Posted by lawlerballer (204 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

thought so

#45 Posted by Vinny_Says (5156 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

404

#46 Edited by shadyspace (457 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

@Insectecutor: Same. All I've gotten so far is Thighs 2.0. Fucking rip-off.

#47 Posted by Daiphyer (1202 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

So, I have to be a paid member to see this? Also when will this start(In how many hours?)

#48 Posted by TheAdmin (694 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

This page is quite broken on the mobile version - video doesn't work and the code link is a 404. I need some top men to fix it.

#49 Posted by CaLe (2491 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

Stop promoting the consumption of alcohol. Don't tell me to relax and don't tell me to get laid. I'm serious.

#50 Posted by Branthog (7044 posts) - 2 years, 8 months ago

Will it be archived for subscribers, too?
