Quote from: Silly Putty Clock;1714067A. You're stirring up drama right now. You should have plenty of material.

B. Motivation? That's exactly what we're trying to revive with this as-of-yet undeveloped RL project. It's not the same tired old shit. I don't know about anyone else, but I'm personally more likely to participate in this than by making flash.

C. We don't all have to work together on this. We can form independent cells and compete, for example. That's just one idea of how to do this without universal cooperation.

In conclusion,

So I'm applying my own advice?

I think we've already seen that motivation doesn't come from external attention and it shouldn't. We motivate ourselves, and if we don't, then we what reason is there for perpetuating the group? We don't need new members and short-lived attention to keep us alive, we need a dedicated group of people that enjoy making movies based on this tired old joke. Instead of "branching out" and looking for new and exciting ways to get the Clock Crew attention, we could just keep making stupid movies and entertaining ourselves. That's all the Clock Crew is, we thrive on drama and if you need evidence to prove that, just look at the recent drama involving complaints to mods about stagnation and power abuse. Look at this thread. We love it. So stop trying, as Maltese said so eloquently before, to make the Clock Crew into some eccentric, indie artist colony.

You really are a bunch of faggots. And that's exactly why we don't need new members; we already have an abundance of stupid, annoying faggots that want to be a part of some impressive and eccentric icon of the counterculture.

Quoted for truth.

Edit Also, because forum drama and personalities play such a huge part in current Clock Crew comedy, it's not surprising that people not familiar with our community can't appreciate it. If they don't see the humor, there's no reason for them to want to join (if you still think we need new members).

I think we're missing the point. Who cares if we get attention, who cares if we get new members? Let's just do this to have fun, fuck with people. The internet is too small for our spam and BS, it must spill into RL. Doesn't that sound fun to anyone?

Quote from: ToyotaClock;1713933or we could just not pull any sort of real world prank because it would be counterintuitive and pointless, if it even garnered any sort of attention at all.

Counter active to what? I didn't know we had a set goal or purpose, aside from annoying the shit out of Newgrounds.com

That's sort of what I was trying to get across earlier. Then again, I don't care about the Crew getting attention for the sake of new members, I just want us to get attention for the hell of it. Kind of like a spoiled child.

Quote from: Silly Putty Clock;1713962I don't care much about getting new members. I know I mentioned recruitment before, but at this point I'm more interested in the mindfuck aspect. I want people to be confused.

Yes!

Yeah, I kinda got off-track there talking about the new members.  I should stress that, in my opinion, that would be a possible consequence of this.

In the end we should still do this for

I was thinking, creepy UFO videos seem to get a lot of publicity. What if we made a few videos of the same shape and then later let out more footage showing a better picture and the UFO is StrawberryClock?

Better yet, have it be Steak Clock and then he shoots lasers at a place that is then on fire.

Yes that is better.
