Thanks Ben, for bringing a new fresh perspective to everything you were apart of and coming with lots of fun new ideas along the way. You will be greatly missed.

With that said, I am happy that you are in a position where you can get out and escape the hellhole of the internet as it is clear that this is what you want and I would never begrudge anyone that!

Hope whatever you decide to do next, you are happy.

Congratulations Rorie!

I know this is quite specific, and I have a clear work around so not the end of the world, but recently I seem to have an issue I didn't have before -

When I watch livestreams on GB in Chrome they freeze/stop to buffer continuously if it's on high quality and if I pause to watch it a bit behind it shows that is buffering (ie. the grey bar extends to show the video loading) but playback stutters and also still freezes ever few seconds. If I switch to low quality playback is fine, and I have tried watching videos in Microsoft 'Edge' (as saw the Firefox issues in this thread) and playback seems totally fine there (both live and if I pause and watch behind).

As part of this I have also just checked normal videos on the site and realized that playback of videos in HD when using the GB player is much smoother using the Edge browser from the get go but if I leave both videos paused (like I did while writing this) then both play fine... so it seems like the rate at which I'm streaming the video is slower in Chrome? Obviously both browsers are the same if I use the youtube player for non-premium videos. Will confess I'm no expert in this but thought I'd detail the issue in case it helps resolve it.

Mary Kish's rant about Cincinnati chilli is up there for me and I don't think anyone has mentioned it yet in the thread. Hilarious and I love the fact that she just completely takes over answering the question. Never fails to make me crack up. (15/12/2015 episode)

Roll ricks?

This was exceptional, this has probably been my favorite year they have ever done. Jeff seemed super on point, they had a good mix of informative serious discussion with funny (informative in a different way) stuff. Everyone seemed on the ball and I can only imagine the amount of work that was going on behind the scenes.
So thank you to everyone that made this happen!

Yeah that was so nice to see. Jeff mentioned that this is probably the purest distillation of what he hopes to do with GB and that gets me very excited for the future, can't wait to see how they keep improving!

Thanks Austin for being your voice and joy and enthusiasm to the site this last year. Look forward to seeing what this UNNAMED VICE VIDEO GAME VERTICAL SITE will be like, wish you all the best!

A powerful commentary.
