    I first came across your channel with the "What If Ezekiel Wasn't Sexist" videos. I loved those videos and I've loved your video since.
    You were actually one of the main inspirations behind me doing Total Drama content myself. I love doing TD content and the fixation for the show has only grown since I started 😂
    Your videos are awesome. I can't wait to see more "What Ifs" from you. And I also can't wait to see any more content you decide to post as well.
    Once again, thank you for inspiring me to do my own TD content and keep up the great work! I'll be watching 🔥

    Congrats on 1 year! I think I've been around since video 4¿ Either way, these videos scratched an itch I didn’t know I had. I watched total drama live all the way back in 07, and it's been a show I've loved since, but these videos helped me see that I REALLY love the show.
    I'm someone who enjoys story rewrites/canon divergences in any media I'm into, and idk why it took me so long to indulge in TD ones! Your channel opened that up to me, and since then I've read lots of great fics, seen great art (even drew something for a video of yours that's sitting in my computer), and even started writing my own td season rewrite!
    Thanks for the work you put into your videos, they're definitely appreciated, and I look forward to this 2nd year! Best of wishes and happiness in whatever you decide to make

    Congrats on ur first year!! ❤
    This video rlly puts things into perspective in a way where i and im sure alot of ur fans rlly do respect 🫶🏼 i think you should ABSOLUTELY put urself first and its good thing u chose urself first bc like u said outside of yt u have a life! Personally ive liked ur content bc of not only the what ifs having alot more depth and storyline but also just bc u just seem authentic and seem very real. I personally wouldnt mind waiting longer for content if it means not losing urself bc whats the point in listening if u dont sound authentic and sound like programmed. You always watch after urself, and we will be back whenever ur rdy to be back 🫶🏼 u have ur life and we have ours and i cant wait to support u for the rest of ur yt journey ❤ ty for the content u put out and being urself but most importantly PUTTING URSELF FIRST!!
    Cant wait for the live streams, ill try and watch them live too but i like that idea as well.

    You're videos were/are a HUGE source of inspiration for a lot of my most recent videos, and they helped me grow way more than I ever had before I started making that content. Believe me, it's tough to align yourself with a consistent upload schedule (I was also sick/getting surgery for like 3 weeks in a row not too long ago), so I don't blame you one bit for taking long breaks. Super excited for the what if Julia got screwed episode, and I'm interested to see what you come up with next!

I really enjoyed them as they felt like i was listening to a whole new script.

    I love your channel mostly because of quality and the fact that you are prepared for those videos. At forst you write script for long so it can be high quality and then read it so the writing and quality is good. Most of other total drama what if channels have very weak quality and most of their what ifs are just spontanious so even the stories they say does not really make sense and are not well written. Also I watch you since your first video and I liked all of your videos actually so no need to be embarrassed about the first 6 ones. The all stars ones still have better writing than original all stars lmao

    • @TDWonderer
      @TDWonderer  Před 2 měsíci +2

    Man i gotta unsub. Who on earth prefers DARK GRAY over nice and clean LIGHT GRAY, yuck.
    In all seriousness man, this was a really great year man. Every video youve put out was a blast and a mean it. I happen to find you channel way early on, so picked the videos from mostly the first era, and brought really nice scenarios that I ressonate a lot. And honestly, to me, the whatifs where you went and detailed every single moment were just marvelous. You just create narratives that were really good and took a different direction from many characters that we'd never expect, from og good characters or bad characters. That is to say, your quality over quantity mentality is what brought the best for the channel, and are the videos that i keep coming back, cause theyre that good.
    So keep the good work man, cause imma keep watching any output you give, cause i know its going to be good
    (also do you plan on continuing sierras and alehandro whatif in TDWT 😮, cause id love that)

      THANK YOU this first year has been a blast and im glad to see you enjoyed it as much as me, hope I can continue to meet your expectations through this next year as for the Sierra and Al WT what if, I don't wanna make any promises because im honestly still not sure but its possible to come up within this next year if I have the time and more importantly interest to go back to it.

    I don’t have much to say, other than it is kinda nostalgic to me, since I remember watching your first video and really loving it and while I wasn’t immediately sold, after the What If Ezekiel one, I was sold (probably because Noah made third place, but that’s just me). My favorite What-If’s on the channel for me personally are What If Ezekiel wasn’t sexist, Chris assigned teams in All Stars, and DJ never got the animal curse. Also, DougDoug moment. While I’m here, I’ll throw in my prediction for your next What-If, since I remember doing this a long time ago and I still have most of what I wrote, so I’ll just put down the elimination order:
    Pre-Merge:
    11th: Julia. Duh
    Merge:
    10th/9th: Raj and Wayne. Same reason
    8th: Chase. MK makes a plan to eliminate Chase in the last episode and tries to do it this episode now. She gets Millie, Emma, and Zee to vote for Chase, while Bowie, Chase, and Ripper vote for MK (Priya throws a random vote at Millie still).
    7th: Zee. Same reason, with the two alliances being MK, Millie, and Priya, and Bowie, Emma, and Ripper respectively.
    6th: Priya. After Bowie wins immunity, MK’s alliance votes for Ripper, while Bowie’s alliance votes for Priya, causing a tie. Because I believe Ripper would’ve beaten Zee in the tapeworm challenge, since I think MK would’ve sabotaged Zee by telling him something about tapeworms, Ripper would’ve had one immunity win, while Priya has zero, so Chris lets Ripper win automatically (unfortunately).
    5th: Bowie. MK, believing she’s in trouble, reveals to the others that Millie has been writing about them in her notebook. After Emma wins immunity, MK tries to save Millie, since she wants to keep the drama going. She goes to Ripper, and manipulates him by telling him that Millie must be impressed by his “skills”. Ripper agrees and the three vote for Bowie for being a threat.
    4th: Emma. Ripper teams up with Emma to sabotage her, as she’s the strongest one there, so she traps her in the webs, keeping Emma slowed down enough to where Ripper gets enough coins to win immunity. The three then vote Emma for being a threat.
    3rd: MK. She’s incredibly weak and I believe her partner would’ve been Julia, so she would’ve taken the saw, causing her to fall behind, while Millie and Ripper are able to get past the lava and pass her.
    2nd/1st: Millie and Ripper. Millie goes through an arc of not judging people so much, while Ripper breaks the record with his “skills”. I don’t know how you could do one canon winner with the way the season ended originally, since Bowie was in front of Priya when they went down the hill, but when the reached the bottom, Priya passed him, so I’m not sure who the canon winner is (I pick Millie personally, but that’s an opinion).
    Can’t wait to see what happens and I hope Ripper doesn’t make finales in your What-If.

    I remember always repeating the entire channel from time to time, essentially going throughout every single video and eventually getting over again and again. It really was a great feeling to the point where I begun making my own versions of what ifs, but I still look up to you for inspiration. We hope you never regret the stay within this overly toxic community, and kudos for the entire year and here's to more!
    Edit: So now that your ready to tackle big projects again, can we get a confirmation that your gonna work on the WT portion of Alejandro and Sierra on Island? I loved those what ifs, my favorite even, and it would be nice to have even newer people within that universe to spice up the plot..

    • @TDWonderer
      @TDWonderer  Před 2 měsíci +2

      im not gonna confirm or deny the expectations of working on the WT of Alejandro and Sierra what if, because im not sure I really wanna do it as the issues I brought up when talking about it are still present to me (lots of time and effort for a video that has a smaller viewing pools because its just limited to people who watched the last part). im more interested in starting other big what ifs that i've been thinking about but who knows? maybe in a couple months i'll feel like going back to that what if but I wouldn't get my hopes up and I hope that you can stick around for the other big what ifs I have in mind for this next year.

    I guess this would be the right video to ask you this question under, but have you considered stopping using the random wheel for indeterminable outcomes? I can understand why it might be a useful safety net, but in my (and I'd imagine some other viewers') eyes, it's just as arbitrary to use a wheel as it would be for you to make that decision. I personally get pretty frustrated whenever an outcome is lend to the wheel. But this might just be my personal perception of it, I just wanted to give you the feedback for consideration. Also, I really like your videos, love the more strategic and character focused approach to What If scenarios.

    • @TDWonderer
      @TDWonderer  Před 2 měsíci +2

      interesting thing to bring up... honestly for me i've never thought of stopping the wheel, some things are just complete random chance that I have no way of knowing what would happen otherwise, I guess I could just make the decision myself but to me that's just boring, the whole point of a what if and my exact style of writing to try and follow the story NOT lead it. And when im forced to do something because of a random wheel it forces me to be creative and versatile in my writing and also lets me entertain certain paths and storylines I would've never thought of otherwise, which to me, only improves the writing and viewing experience.
      (i totally get where you're coming from though and I love hearing feedback or opinions from my fans so thanks for bringing this up to me! and also im glad you enjoy my videos ❤️)
