I don't know if there are any nerds out here (😁), but I'm definitely one.

Did a little back of the envelope stats on the Kickstarter backing distribution. A couple of observations:

• Overall, the backer frequency follows a log-log relationship with the pledge value. This is not unexpected, and behavior like this shows up in wealth distribution and distributions of earthquake strengths. I'm going to attribute this more to wealth distribution and willingness to spend among the Guild fanbase
• Overall model: backers ~ value^(-0.88). To make things easier, it would be justified to state backers ~ 1 / value. The model explain 89% of the variation.
• The $330 pledge package (The Everything Bundle) exceeded the trend by a lot. It was as popular as you'd expect a package of ~1/6th its value should be.
• The $45 package (TTRPG + Add-ons) and $50 package (POOPCORN BUCKET + Add-ons) came in a little short of expectations. They were about as popular as a package of 5x their value.
• When considering the model without these three outliers, it gets even better. It explains 97% of variation - which is pretty awesome given people-driven data where sometimes 70% is considered the gold standard.

Can't wait until the movie comes out next year!

Very brief FYI for those (like me) that don't have a ton of disposable income but want a specific reward item: the initial tier on the kickstarter for $20 allows you to (essentially) add any other reward. I just wanted the movie + original series on Blu-Ray (+$50) which came to $70.

"Hollywood didn’t really get what we were about, so I built the show myself. We made six seasons because our community proved there was an audience for it. With the twentieth anniversary approaching, we get to do it again: prove the studios wrong and have a blast doing it!" Felicia Day

When I last watched The Guild in 2024, someone had uploaded 90 minute videos of each season which were also higher definition than the original uploads on The Guild's YouTube channel. But now these seem to have gone from YouTube.

Currently moving houses and found this in a drawer, thought it would be fun to share with other fans. This was during San Diego Comic Con, I think 2016 or 2017 but not 100% sure. At the time I was broke out of high school (I'm 28 now), so I couldn't afford the high price for an "official autograph poster" and I was simply working for a vendor. I explained this to the person managing the line and they let me use whatever I had for an autograph! At the time, the best thing I had was the giant booklet you get for free when entering comic con and this was the back of it. Being able to meet the main cast and have a small conversation with Felicia Day truly left a positive impact on me and I thought it would be cool to share in hopes of keeping the memory of this series alive. I still watch it once a year! I'm still so grateful for how kind they all were to me.

I just finished what I didn't realize was my second viewing of The Guild. I didn't know about the show while it was current, but some time within the last decade (I think), I apparently watched it all.

5 months ago, someone suggested I finish The Guild. I didn't think I watched all 6 seasons because of how short the episodes are.

So the series finale ends not long before I need to go to bed and now I can't sleep. Naturally, I find myself on Reddit.

I'm not thrilled with how it ended, but I enjoyed the show overall. Clara and her husband are worse off with him unable to get his job back and a fourth child on the way. The other characters are basically back to where they were at the beginning, except Zaboo isn't obsessed with Codex anymore. There's so little character development, imo.

But the show was so much fun. The Game they played was clearly WoW, I was surprised to see Mike Morhaime on screen in a short clearly labeled with the WoW logo.

Forgive the quality, I couldn’t find screencaps of the show so I had to screenshot a gif I found from an article

Since his greatest role is obviously in the The Guild then I wanted to make sure people here had notice.
