FUCK OFF (can I get a mod to make that bigger? ty) mod edit: no Rael edit: :[

[image loading]


Okay if you don't know what happened let me explain. Today we were doing King of the Hill on my stream and randomly during one of the games I get a hysterical message from iCCup.Diamond. It was something like this*

HOLY FUCKING SHIT LOOK A THE STREAM OMG OMG SHUT DOWN EVERYTHING HOLY MOTHER OF GOD OMG FIX IT WTF OMG BBQ


Not knowing what the problem was and unable to load the stream since I was in a game I kind of kept going cuz it was just him but he insisted with more of the above. We paused the stream restarted it and slowly after a long series of messages from chat and other people I came to realize that somehow....

My stream had been replaced while live with the image of a an empty desk with a chair that looks suspiciously like a person and a copy of Halo:Reach sitting on it.

[image loading]
Seriously what a troll**

Okay pausing the game because this isnt game I embarked to try and fix this. Apparently by comments being made on his stream they were seeing my stream on his end and we were seeing his. Some sort of epic wire got crossed on u-stream's end and our streams switched. I finally got it fixed and his returned to normal... So we continued forward or so I thought...

The next... 3 hours were filled with random cutovers of the Chair onto our stream at about 15-30 minute intervals.

[image loading]
Actually made by a viewer, this dude has SEVEN posts what an epic 7th post.

Now the most annoying thing about this shit was every time it took literally FIVE MINUTES to fix. THe stream would get stomped by the chair, chat would rage we'd have to pause it, I literally had Diamond in game with me just so he could go "Chair'd" and I could fix it. Once I got the chair off our stream it would go to the off air recordings and it would take me 2-3 minutes to get the stream back online consisting of 2-5 stream restarts to finally get back live.

[image loading]
Another viewr made image. As you can probably guess this quickly took off in chat with many many jokes about it in chat and on our tournament thread.

[image loading]
I disagree, but the chat is pretty funny

In short I direct this last part to Chris Pirillo's Chair not Mr. Pirillo himself.

GO CLIMB A WALL OF DICKS AND DIE IN A FIRE(again can a mod make this bigger for effect please? kty)

Notes
*Not an actual quote slightly dramatized
**Not the actual image on his laptop it has a face I assume his own

edit: In case you think all of those are photoshopped for some reason heres video

Well looks like I got a new sales pitch for potential sponsors. "We're so big we got trolled by Chris Pirillo's Chair."
