100K Subscribers in... less than 72 hours

What a crazy 72 hours it has been.

The Patreon numbers that are public aren't even accurate as most of our audience is on the free trial, so once we hit next Monday / Tuesday, we'll see the full extent of what we've all accomplished together in what has been the craziest 72 hours of pretty much all of our collective lives.

We'll do a full recap on Sunday most likely, but for now, we're just enjoying it.

Thank you.

I've watched Yahtzee and read Escapist stuff for about 10+ years now, so I'm glad to contribute even a small amount to everyone whose been part of my gaming life haha

Cheers for the future, free from corporate overlords.

Is yahtzee flipping us off? Cool

gulpirak

Its been awhile since I've used Patreon but the second I heard what happened to all of you, I knew I would back whatever it is you ended up doing. The fact that Yahtzee went with you all is even better. I can not wait to see what this channel becomes. Great luck to you all!

Jeff Thomas

Make that 100k +1 more! Love Yall

Not surprised at all. When passionate people get together to do something with their passion, people respond. You guys are awesome, you deserve all of the support!

Jason Lippert

We love you guys! Cheers to the future!

Bijan Emadi

I should have read a little bit further down! Couldn't be happier to see him with you all. We immediately cancelled our membership with Escapist and you guys are getting all of it directly! Good luck! Can't wait to see what this becomes!

Dark Thunder Studio

Excited for the new venture! Best of luck!

You guys have helped me get through one of the toughest years of my life with your wealth of wonderful content always providing me with perfect escapism! Wishing you all well and the best of luck. I really hope this is the start of something even better for all of you and us!

If everyone pitches in one dollar per month, you'll all be flush with cash.

Cynthia McGarvie

Cracked laid off its video staff, and now I'm on most of their podcast patreons. Collegehumor collapsed and out of the ashes came one of the best content services on the internet in Dropout. I came to escapist for ZP, but truly fell for Adventure is Nigh and can't wait to see what becomes of all my favorite people in that pic with this new endeavor

Philip Roworth

LET'S GOOOOOO

Adrian “Origami” Cioc

Woo! Feels like CollegeHumor leaving the mothership all over again. I probably won't hang around on Patreon long-term, but happy to throw in for a month or two now to help you guys get the plane off the ground. Here's to another decade of content 🍺

Matthew Young

Cheers to you all.

Dan Smeiska

Congratulations! I'm really looking forward to this

MAZAL TOV!

Esther Varin Reitman

Hoping for continued success and that this catalyst and support allow you all to flourish. I'm a big fan of workers taking back power which you've clearly done. I'll be following along and look forward to updates. Be good to each other

MaybeEatTheRich

So glad that the good folks behind the Escapist's video content will no longer be beholden to corporate overlords! Looking forward to seeing what the new setup will be like.

Spencer

From what I was able to look up on Gamurs, you folks made the right call. They've been laying people off left and right and tried to replace them with A.I.

Aaron Samuels

A crazy 72 hours doesn't even begin to describe it. @_@ This has been one heck of a week.
