The revealing of what Aussie Guy acted like during the filming of this mostly. The rest I just meant people leaving the site and reviewing in general. I never heard of Aussie Guy. Video won't play, so who was all involved? I always like Phealous(sp?), Lupa, Mike J, Nash, NC, Nostalgia Chick before I noticed she was so anti-male, and I forget others. Angry Joe... Todd, Blockbuster Buster, um... Brad. That guy with the Star TTrek reviews, HATE the joker ripoff AMANDA HAGAN with a passion, Last Angry Geek reviews of Doctor Who but I am not into his characters. This video pre-dates the involvement with the site of a lot of the names you mentioned. Here's who was there according to the end credits - Doug The AVGN Nostalgia Chick Kyle Justin Linkara Benzaie Handsome Tom 8-Bit Mickey Little Miss Gamer Spoony That Aussie Guy MarzGurl Angry Joe HopeWithinChaos That Chick with the Goggles Bennett the Sage 2D Lee PawDugan Ma-Ti Rollo T Coldguy Dr. Gonzo The Cat The Birdman Plus cameos from Rob, Mike Ellis and Mike Michaud |

Aussie Guy is someone you'll only have heard of if you were really following TGWTG in the first year. During the hotel stay for this shoot and its resultant collab videos, he was spreading around rumours that Nostalgia Chick kept trying to proposition him. Or in his words "not much, just trying to dodge a BJ from Lindsay". When Doug and Michaud found out, they shitcanned him from the site so hard that the clip of him throwing a boomerang in this video is the only trace of him left. There's noone else in the history of TGWTG that got completely UnPersonned like that, and until the Lupa incident he was the only reviewer to actually get fired from TGWTG. |

God, I'm nostalgic for this stuff now. It's weird to think that if you look at it purely in terms of views and YouTube subscribers, Angry Joe is probably the biggest non-AVGN guy left. But I loved the original brawl. I really enjoyed Kickassia as well.

What was the deal with Lupa leaving though? If anything, I thought there was some kind of Jewario drama, and no disrespect to the recently deceased by mentioning it, I just wanna know more of the details of this all |

The Lupa thing was officially some bullshit. She'd been having disagreements with Rob Walker and Mike Michaud because apparently her putting mid-roll ads on her videos caused everyone to turn ad block on (never mind the fact Critic does the same thing), and they kept yelling at her for promoting her Patreon at the end of videos, even while they were sitting on the $90,000 they got from an indiegogo campaign that noone saw the benefit of for over a year. One day, Mike and Rob add her to a Skype conversation and ask her if she has time to talk. She was out for an hour or 2 away from her computer, but when she came back she saw that they'd waited 15 minutes, and then just sent a chat message that she was being removed from the site. Sure enough, they'd already taken all her videos off. Phelous also immediately quit out of disgust. |

Didn't get into the Channel Awesome stuff until around Suburban Knights so that was my first mega crossover. I feel like I'd be lost trying to watch this lol. Funny how much drama has come from Internet reviewers lol.
As for those I still keep track of nowadays - Nostalgia Critic, Linkara, Spoony (when he actually puts stuff out. Depression and bi polar is a bitch), Cinema Snob, and Angry Joe.

Lindsay isn't a "man-hater," she's a feminist; being the latter doesn't necessitate being the former. But that's a discussion we can curtail at this point, because I already have a headache from last night's stupidity and don't really feel like cleaning up messes today. |

Todd doesn't want his face or real name on the internet. For real reasons, or just to keep the mystique of the character? |

I'm going with mystique, otherwise it would have come out...I doubt he looks like Kabal under that mask. Anyways, It is a case of the cream always rising to the top and not needing TGWTG anymore. Look at Linkara and especially Angry Joe. They outgrew TGWTG and have really substantial fanbases that dwarf TGWTG. |

He was a journalist when he started, and if he ever wants to go back to a "real" job he's not going to have to worry about employers finding his videos by googling his name. Same goes for Hagan, JO and Nash off the top of my head. |

Same goes for Hagan, JO and Nash off the top of my head. Well, it would be a bit different for JO, since he recently transitioned and working for Anime News Network hasn't really stopped him from using his real name. I can understand the same thing about Hagan and Nash. The question is, what would Doug do if Channel Awesome ever stopped being a thing since he videotaped burning his bridge at work. |

Probably work for another site as some type of on air personality. I can't imagine he didn't make any networking connections all these years. |
