Riot Gear and Some Questions

I’ve decided I’m going to start updating this blogernator a bit more. But as we don’t have many updates, I figured I could use it to answer some questions. So from here on out, feel free to ask away in the comments, and I’ll do my best. If you’re an aspiring content creator, I’d love for this to be a place where you can get some advice from some guys who have been there and back and have the scars and torn up contracts to prove it.

Our first round of answers:

1) We still got lots of questions about Season 3 of Leet World. This kind of surprises me, because as much as I know people loved the show, it has in fact been over for 2 years. People have done some pretty cool things on the Internet since then, and I highly recommend checking some of them out. Such as this nifty Portal 2 machinima. The writing’s not fantastic, but I’m impressed with what they pulled off, technically speaking. And there’s always Red Vs Blue, which has gone into a stratosphere that no other machinima creators can hope to touch.

2) If you ask us if you can be the one to continue Leet World, my answer will always be that nobody can stop you from doing what you want, but you’re not going to get our blessing. I’d encourage you to make your own thing, in your own way. Because I’m tyrannical like that.

3) All of us have recently rewatched The Leet World for the first time in a very, very long time, and I’ve got to say… I’m still baffled we did it. There’s a lot of technical stuff going on in a lot of those scenes that a lot of effort went into, and in some ways nobody can ever truly appreciate it but us. Weird to think that we pulled it off with all of the hurtles we had to overcome.

4) Not to make light of a serious situation, But I think Player is ready for the London riots. Seriously though, stay safe out there you guys.

    Do you guys miss working on content for Smooth Few Films?
    I know you have said that you welcomed the break from it all, but since the Web Zeros finale has nostalgia clawed at you at all?

  2. CrAppy

    now that Counter Strike GO is announced, will there be a few hilarious shorts from you guys based on it once it goes out on the market? I’m not asking for a whole new series but some cool funny gunplay would be awesome

    Lots of GamerSushi podcasts, that’s for sure.

    Hi! First off, I loved and still love TLW series. Two years ago if I asked someone if they have ever heard of TLW 9 times out of 10 they would have said no. Once I showed them they fell in love with the series. Now so many people have watched this series. I remember that weeks of the last few episodes, it was genuinely sad to see such a GREAT machinima go. So here is my question: I am currently starting up a mod studio (pretty established so far), and we are doing a mod/machinima that will be a more updated version of a Demo Reel for the Orange Box engine. I was thinking of using Roxio Game Capture for the PC to capture footage, do you think this piece of hardware is a good buy? Or should I use an actual capture card?

    i’ve carried this question with me since the mid of season 2 of TLW. the only answer i got to it was “we cant tell you, its part of the plot”, but after TLW ended, the answer was never revealed. so here i am, posting this question again:

    if Cortez was blind, how was he able to use an AWP sniper rifle and be efficient with it???

  6. pl4y3r_rul3z

    I was wondering if you guys would mind terribly if I were to rip TLW onto DVDs for my own personal use. I really love the series, and much like all things I love, I must have a physical copy of them.

    Pwease?

  7. Adaminator1

    Hey guys, are you ever going to release A) The rest of TLW Season 1 soundtrack, or B) TLW Season 2 Soundtrack? I just figured, ’cause you guys were planning on releasing both of those… Even if S2 isn’t actually complied into songs, I find it’d be awesome to hear the individual cues used regardless, because as you said, it [i]has[/i] been two years; if it were going to be done, it would have been done by now, however that doesn’t mean we still don’t wanna hear it, because frankly, Jace did an [i]awesome[/i] work on the soundtrack.

    ZOMG its great to hear back from you guys! Being a fan of SFF since mid-season one of TLW, I was stoked to see this new post. I hear that Dan has been off getting his career started, but surely you and Nick still have many Leet World / Webzeroes moments going on. I bet my bottoms dollar that your wife has been greeted with “Hi Diane!” by some people once in her life.

    And your right; this machinima craze has absolutely been growing with many solid and creative writers and directors popping up all over the internet, though I will say (sorry fans) that Red vs. Blue may have lots of popularity and is a massive paramount for machinima everywhere, but it’s REALLY worn out on me personally since the writing became bland and uncreative around the fourth season onwards. Yet it has really impressive visuals. Still unwatchable for me though.

    Good to hear back from you guys! You now have a few more fans of TLW since I’ve been telling some friends about it and they’ve been really getting into it.

    Glad I still check in once and a while, an actual update! heh.

    Nice portal 2 machinma link btw, getting harder and harder to find decent machinma on the web amongst all the aspiring youtubers.

    And I like what Appy said up there, since CS:GO was announced, what are your thoughts and/or dreams about it?

  10. Nafets

    My friend and I just had a LEETWORLD-A-THON before we head out to our first years university. I have to admit during many of the scenes I had goosebumps.

    I applaud you men once more on the show that I will never in my life forget.

    Keep updating the blog. It is always cool to hear what’s happening with you guys 😀 😀 :D!!!

    Hope you are having an awesome summer.

  11. thaagi

    Humn… You said your baffled? And hurdles? Maybe you could, instead of a new series, just edit Leet World (First) to improve the bits which you think could have gone better. Not change it, but edit what you can, you no longer have a deadline-demands from people like us.

    Good luck with the updating and good luck to player, 😀

  12. theodoh

    HAHA player looks ready to go.
    I must say it makes me sad that its been more than a month since I checked up on the sight, and almost embarrassed as much as sad, but alas, all good things must end, yes?
    I’m glad gamersushi continues to be a classy, well maintained website that I do frequently visit. Appreciated!

  13. fsdetained

    Is there ever going to be a downloadable version of “Know about it”? I could use 80 different programs to download the video but the quality isn’t quite the same.

  14. DarkRook

    You guys just cannot get rid of me. I’ll keep checking here for an update every now and then. I still won’t give the site up for dead.

  15. MisterJ

    Hey guys,
    Huge fan of TLW. Naturally I’m one of many who is sad the show is over, but hey, all good things have an end, right? Anyway, I like TLW theme you posted, but the one in “Set Up Us The Bomb” I like better. Why? Because it’s got an awesome lead into the actual theme. So the question:

    Not sure if you have it still, but if that version of TLW theme exists, could you post the download link?

    Thanks guys!

    Eddy, Daniel, Nick, Jace, and all the other people who’ve helped out with this series, I can’t thank you enough for all the great memories you guys left me with. It’s been a long journey since season 1, and I’m glad I was able to follow you guys through thick and thin. I can’t say I blame you guys for ending the series, but I’m saddened by the fact that it had to come to a close. You guys put a tremendous amount of effort into this series, and I thank you guys for going through all that trouble just to please us, the fans. I’ll miss those days just sitting in class, waiting anxiously for the next episode to be released. Farewell dudes, I wish you all the best of luck. KTHX, BAI

    First I would like to take this opportunity to do something I’d never have the guts to do in real life and admit that I have a fat crush on Daniel Miller. If ever life gets you down, just know that you single handedly turned a 22 year old into a squealing 13 year old fan girl. I had to choose these next words carefully to truly express the depths of this crush, and it was best put in 5 words: You are my Ryan Reynolds. Just had to get that out of my system.

    Second I know you’ve probably been asked this question a million times, but are you working on anything for the future *cough leet world 2* because “Hold on Zach Gilifinakis– I’m gonna let you finish– but TLW was the best web series of All Time!” Well that and CS:GO is coming out (eeek!) and there’s a fan girl that’s really crossing her fingers.

    So I did a little more investigating after posting this comment and answered my question. Since I can’t delete my question… and am kind of mortified from the confession… I’ll just leave it there as a monument to what happens when I have one too many monster energy drinks at late hours in the morning.

  19. Santi Koach

    confessing shite is useful, lass, having the guts to say it, not giving a damn about what others might think deserves some recognition.

    come on, lads. aren’t you gonna give her a cheer?!
