Dan & Phil Part 23: Let's just retract the fist.

[anathema]

Just something I noticed that I've probably got wrong: did anyone else notice the guitar moving in the background? First of all: why do they have a guitar? But also, you can see it clearly from the start of the liveshow until Phil turns the laptop at about 40 minutes:

After he turns the laptop back, it's seemingly gone:



But then after it froze and he reconnects, it appears to be back but at a different angle?

Maybe it's just the angle of the camera, and I haven't slept in a solid 26 hours, so I might be completely seeing things just caught my attention

I think the reason it's not there in the second photo is just the angle of the camera. If you look closely you can (barley) see the shadow in the bottom corner. Also, I bet it's Dan's. In this liveshow (at 34:12) Dan mentions he's plays the piano and drums but would like to learn how to play the guitar. The ls is from 2012 though, but I guess he just now decided to pick up on it? I don't know, it seems kind of weird to me, but it being Dan's makes the most sense.

Edit: whoo, top of the page, how exciting

That looks like their guitar hero/rock band controller, not an actual guitar

(This is probs not an exact pic, I'm too lazy to find one though)

I really enjoyed the live show. Phil looked really good and I really liked the stories he was telling. Also yes, do give us your opinions.
I’m surprisingly happy that he talked about the Youtube thing.
Seems like we will be getting a baking vid, I’m happy about that because those are some of my faves.
Phil is not a potterhead smh.
Phil's mother didn't even watch his DITL vid.

Did anyone else catch that bit where he said that Dan would probably be upset about the Farfetch'd thing until 'the next time we go to Asia'?

He did his classic face for a second which made me think he thought he fucked up a bit there. Could be for two reasons:

1) bit boyfriendy to assume the next time they go to Asia they'll be together and admit that to the chat, given that could be god-knows how long into the future, unless...
2) there's Asia dates of tatinof coming up which he almost spoiled



Unless it's neither of those and I'm just seeing things. It wouldn't be the first time

Quoting and correcting myself because I noticed I missed Dan's name *facepalm*

Maybe they've discussed having another holiday in Asia.

Hm, you're probably right (this was actually my initial thought, but then for some reason I thought the controller looked different, so I let myself get my hopes up. I should take ten extra seconds to look up a photo next time )

I'm in favor of the "get married in London then have a two-week Japan honeymoon extravaganza" theory

[starlight-still]

Enjoyed the ls when I got to see the whole thing (thank you, SquishPhan )...yes, it was nice to see a chatty, energetic, almost-fully-recovered Phil. Glad he calmly addressed the YouTube controversy; he said what needed to be said and moved on. And, well, you've gotta give it to for making their friends' Christmas shopping for them very easy this year:

Yaaaaassss

[swofro]

I'm back and ready to let go of my Demon Phannie status.

So, Phil liveshow. I love it because Phil is so chill but chatty and the whole thing is so relaxing. And as usual, I'm going to list things that I love like the I am.

About phil
- his voice still sound a bit sick but he looks healthy, as n he doesn't look tired.
-love his hair.
-cheeky knee

Liveshow highlights

'Woop, we don't have to go back to school!' - love the recognition of older phans from Phil.

Love all the Australia animal adventures, the bats and possum and the dissappointment of not findinga big spider. told you they aren't real and Dan is lying about that 10 feet to spider thing, Phil.

"I never been so moist before in my life" Welcome to our side of the world, Phil, where we sweat every single day without trying.

Phil as a waterbender could work, but I can't see him as a waterbender warrior because he is such a clumsy angel bean, fire nation can wrecked him in one shot.

Koala experience. Love the description of the experience. I never knew koala really smells that good. The only good smell animal I've ever been in close proximity to sniff are only cats.

Phil hate washing dishes. I can't relate but chores that i hate the most is folding clothes (most probably same as every other young person).

timtams , congrats!

Mooncake festival. I don't know whether Phil's hand is on the big side or what, because the cake look small than what is sold in my country. I love mooncakes.

to not so bad jetlag

to Dan is no longer in pneumonia and probably busy playing Guild Wars 2 again. Is he trying the new thingy on it? (look at me trying to pretend I know anything about the game)

YoutubeRed photoshoot, yay! Can't wait for the pictures and trailers. I wonder how they will advertise it, like is it gonna be 'A Performance of a Lifetime!' or is it gonna be 'Dedicated to the Phandom' or something like that

that Phil mentioned about interacting with crew and explain a bit how it's hard to hang out with the crews back in USA. I knew it that they are not some arrogant star of the show who never interact with people beneath them. I mean, I always believe that, just great that now we have confirmation from the man himself. I love Dan and Phil

yes to all marriage proposals. Somebody need to write a fanfic on how Dan proposes on younow and Phil secretly said yes, and nobody realise it. lol.

"What is MrMime?" A mime?!!

I love you, Phil.
Thank you, Daniel

DINOF and DAPG are safe from the youtube apocalypse thing. Looks like it's not a big deal then.

lol to getting mosquito bites. Flashback to when Joe Sugg went to Thailand (two years ago??) and have mosquito bites all over.

Cookie Dough ice cream is one of his favourites. Same, Philip, same. I love that flavour so much and so sad that it is kinda hard to get here so I just have to settle to vanilla and chocolate rice.

does the tour even happened
How dare you said that when we are left in content drought for two whole months during your USA tour.

Phil really need to do a candle haul video. i think that is one of his most requested video here.

"Dan gonna be sad until we return to Asia" soon?

Sherlock season 4 ayy. I like detective stories, sue me.

I don't know what is Phil on about when he said he like cheesecake because I also don't eat cheese and don't eat thing that I can taste cheese in, and I absolutely hate cheesecake. Maybe I just need good cheesecake that doesn't taste of cheese. (or is it a bad cheesecake?)

Things Phil don't mention that I wanna know about:
-BBC Radio 1. Come on, tell me what's going on. I needs to know.
-BBC Teen Award (is that what's it called? has the voting close yet? will they present the award?)
-The voice over thing
-Is TATINOF over? yay or nay? tell me

Love the liveshow. Everything is good in Dan and Phil land. Can't wait for Dil. Is there gonna be a huge wedding reception? I hope so.

[danphil333]

that was the only tweet that made me consider the "swapped twitters" theory. i wanted to believe really

yesterday in his liveshow, phil actually said out loud "sign me up" at some point. i think they just spent way too much time together. thats dan's bad influence.
please someone save phil before its too late

[DryCereal]

Still an hour long playlist on Monday nights at 9pm... #OpenSlot

-BBC Teen Award (is that what's it called? has the voting close yet? will they present the award?)

Voting has closed, the ceremony is taking place (well, being broadcast!) on R1 23/10/16 at 1900hrs.

-The voice over thing

...Is the new Vegas vid.

-Is TATINOF over? yay or nay? tell me

Hopefully nay. They wouldn't be doing #spon for no reason...

Love the liveshow. Everything is good in Dan and Phil land. Can't wait for Dil. Is there gonna be a huge wedding reception? I hope so.

Eliza as Maid of Honour. Wonder where they'll go on honeymoon...!

For the people who missed the live show

That was really quick I can never watch it live because my internet is not good enough and am I the only one that is excited that Phil is playing Witcher 3? I hope he will talk about it some more, especailly what kind of decision he will make in the story

Disappointed they're not playing the new Attack on Titan game, tbh. (Maybe I'm just annoyed AF that my pre-ordered copy STILL. HAS. NOT. ARRIVED. ) I was looking forward to some fanboying, buuuuut no. Le sigh.

Yup the person who uploaded it was very fast.
Hopefully Phil will keep us updated on how the game is going in his live shows.

swofro I enjoyed reading your post.

Also I forgot to mention that I really liked how often he used 'we'.

Haha I saw that one and it looks really fun, although maybe a bit glitchy? They will probably try it a year from now also I saw some rumors that the sims 4 are getting a new expansion about city living soon so we will probably get some new sims episodes when it will come out

What will do you do when the merge is completed? Where will you go?


Anyway guys I'm just glad that YouTube withholding money from Creators, including ones who aren't top tier and don't cash in on the side but still rely on YouTube and that thing called free speech for at least part of their income, for months without notification and often unjustified considering all the approved appeals, isn't a big deal because two vloggers who don't do serious or controversial ever didn't get affected. Stellar. Before y'all come for my ass, I'm not saying that's what Phil thinks (though I did roll my eyes at him a bit) but many fans are immediately just like 'Phil says it's alright so just let's ignore every other red flag ' so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

Not that i disagree with you on other points, but it might be useful for you to learn that free speech concept does not apply to private entities (other restrictions do, but none of them protect swearing or being ~controversial).

It depends.. is phil part of the merge? whats phils role in it? Will he be absorbed into oblivion finally?

Phil said that those rules exist since 2013? What changed now and caused this reaction? Is it just more clear to the creators that they will not get paid?

[coffeepenguin]

For the people who missed the live show

Thank you! I was only able to catch the last 10 minutes, because I never know what time it's supposed to be (fake fan)

Loved the talk about animals, opinions, lots of "we", overall one of the best Phil's ls lately imo

One moment got my attention in particular, though, where he was talking about the photoshoot and said he tried to look exited because of course he's exited about the thing that he's doing (read: joint tour with Dan), seemed very sincere smh and filled my phan heart with joy

I know that and and I know Google is within their right to do this, but that doesn't not make it censorship. And if they just blocked videos that were actually just trying to shock for the sake of stirring up shit or actively preach hate, you wouldn't hear me. But videos that show or cover current events shouldn't be classed as controversial, nor should videos about mental health and such. But the guidelines that Google has enforced for the past few years are far to broad and unclear, basically giving them the power to do whatever the hell they like. That's their right, but still messed up especially considering Google's almost absolute power over the internet. They've applied censorship before on search results and intrude on privacy every second of the day, so it's just baffling to me that people think everything going on with YouTube is just fine just because Phil (who even admits he hasn't done full research and doesn't know everything) says so. People could really benefit from thinking a bit more critical about internet rights is all I'm saying. Don't give up your life to our future overlords without a bit of a fight.

I dunno the options are infinite. Imagine a centaur. A Phantaur. You'd be fine if it were Dan's lower half and Phil's torso, but the other way around might mean you have to unstan. :')

And yeah it's because the absolute darlings over at Google found the heart within themselves to actually notify people that their videos got de-monetized while previously they just did it but didn't bother to tell you because Google doesn't like paying people.

[uglyamerican]

It appears that in the past, videos were "demonetized" without the creators knowing about it, at least by some sort of flag on the video itself. Creators *might* have been able to figure it out by analysing their payments data from YouTube. Let's face it, although the content policy has been in place for a while, YouTube wasn't very transparent about when it is enforced. Now with the "yellow $," at least the creator can see which videos were demonetized, but they still don't know exactly why it was demonetized. At least we now know that colorful language will not automatically earn a $, so D&P content, with Dan's in particular, will not be affected.

How you don't know what time it is? Is easy, every sunday at 7 pm uk.

Now check what time is in your country, go to google and write London Time.That's all, you now have the time difference, just do the conversion

Example:
France time 8 pm = London time 7 pm

There you go Sundays at 8pm on France, be careful of summer time tho (or whatever it is call, we don't have that here)

are you trolling?? I think they just meant they can never remember what time it is (unsurprising given lack of frequency recently)

Completely agree Catallena the fact that it doesn't affect Deppy doesn't make it ok. I don't think that's what Phil was trying to say (not that you were suggesting that), I think he was just trying to pour cold water over the irate fans who do think that way to essentially shut them up. Can't deny it seems to have worked.

That's basically their MO though isn't it - even if some shit is going down, unless it directly affects them, they keep their heads down and stay out of it. I'm sure his full opinion is much more layered than 'we're fine so its fine' but like hell is he gonna share that with us. Wait for Dan's ls tomorrow for that lol

[DryCereal]

Bless. Philly, we've been calling you psychic over this for MONTHS.
