More importantly, OmeKim has vowed to find a girlfriend for (T)Flash. Will he succeed in finding such a "Godfriend"? Shouldn't it just be a Goddess? I really wonder if he'll have any luck with that haha | ||

The real payoff is in seeing the spontaneous coordination of hundreds and sometimes thousands of viewers (That plus Guemchi's absurd prose and literary creativity). Imagine you got a thousand people together on the internet and asked them to work toward one goal. If even one of those people defects from the cause, you will fail. When these people succeed in coordinating, it is like one of those videos: A meaningless exercise, but like watching dominoes or Rube Goldberg machines, it's somehow weirdly satisfying. Given that Guemchi has struggled with the direction of his stream since I wrote the article, maybe it is not a formula for long-term success. That said, Guemchi's travails deserve to be included in what would be an interesting case study of less popular gamers struggling with their income (and future). | ||

That's partly because there's a lot of waiting in between the action. Moreover, my personal view is that no one actually cares about these "sexy dances". One, they're often quite bland and always similar. Two, you can get much sexier content elsewhere.
