Oh my goodness
Added 2018-01-31 16:43:36 +0000 UTCAbout 24 hours ago I launched this Patreon, and even after a night of sleep I still haven't completely processed the amazing response it has had. I've had people trying to convince me to start a Patreon for years but I always waved it off, thinking "nobody would ACTUALLY pledge, pffth" and here we are. I'm happy to have been proven wrong, but more than that, I'm grateful.
Every time I try something new, I feel "THIS is thing that's going to make them realise I'm not worth their time" but every time, the support remains. People are glad to see me do what I want to do. It's only now that I'm fully seeing the extent of how true that is. I will strive to doubt myself less.
I've been saying a lot of thank yous for the past day, but they haven't dulled in sentiment. I want to thank you all here again, not just because of your financial support, but for your support - period. Thank you for watching the silly little videos I've made. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to make more of them for you. And they are for you, as much as they are for me.
Mwah.

You're the best Owen! My friends and I have gathered to watch each of your videos for about 6 years now, with the Christmas special being one of the years highlights. Thanks for the in-jokes!
2018-12-27 14:23:03 +0000 UTCChristmas just isn't Christmas without your special episode. Truly
2018-02-08 15:05:30 +0000 UTCI made a patreon account for this purpose alone, keep it up man, I can't even describe the mini heart-attack I get when I see your videos pop up.
2018-02-07 00:19:07 +0000 UTCYou're one of my favourite content creators on the YouTube. It's rare that I'll pledge anything for anyone. But I almost felt obliged to here because of how many laughs (and tears) I've had watching some of your older videos. Keep up the good work Owen.
2018-02-04 22:39:06 +0000 UTCYou are my favourite objectively bad game reviewer, Owen, and with luck, you'll be one of the greatest objectively bad reviewers of literally anything and everything. Thank God for your worthless opinions!
2018-02-04 10:33:18 +0000 UTCI actually want the review for the board game
2018-02-04 08:58:15 +0000 UTCWe love you Owen! X
2018-02-01 20:18:40 +0000 UTCWill David Lynch be making a return appearance on the show?
2018-02-01 04:18:27 +0000 UTCI'm one of the people who has, along the way, badgered you to start one. I'm really happy for you that it's been such a success and I really hope that, as you mention, it does cause you to doubt yourself less. That's the only negative thing I've ever taken away from your videos and streams; your lack of self-confidence. Well, there's no better proof of that being unfounded than the success of this patreon so hopefully that can put that to bed. Good luck Owen!
2018-01-31 21:51:48 +0000 UTCLove ya Owen, x
2018-01-31 19:59:28 +0000 UTCJust wanted to say it sucks that we're in a world where the only way you can find money for your content is by having a patreon (something you've made quite a bit fun of in the past). Maybe you should review the ultimate joke game, youtube content monetization. Rant aside, good luck with everything and of course I'm throwing some money your way, it's a long strange story but your content lead to my (now) fiance and myself actually deciding to give a relationship a shot so as long as doing this makes you happy and feel anything close to being financially comfortable, I (and others) will support you all the way.

2018-01-31 17:33:58 +0000 UTCHonestly, the brief snippet of you doing "your style" in the patreon video was enough to make me pledge in a heartbeat.

2018-01-31 17:27:29 +0000 UTCI'm glad to hear about your success big guy hope you can afford that liver transplant and sure we'll have a massive session to give the old one a proper send off
2018-01-31 17:21:13 +0000 UTCI'm really glad for you, Mecha. Your stuff's always been a big highlight whenever it shows up in my YouTube feed, and I'm happy you're actually getting support you deserve for the work you do now. Best of luck this year, man.
2018-01-31 17:17:51 +0000 UTCI just want to see you review everything
2018-01-31 16:57:48 +0000 UTCWe earnestly love ya, mate, and I'm glad you decided to go this route, especially with YouTube steadily falling apart over the last couple of years. I can't wait to see what kind of delightful insanity you'll delve into.

2018-01-31 16:48:01 +0000 UTCYou're amazing and creative and hilarious. I've been waiting for you to make a patreon for ages. So glad to see you're getting the support you deserve.
