Office Hours 3/14/18

Thanks for joining me for office hours today! -Brianne

Kristian Harloff

That sounds really cool. I feel like that would be something that we would need to convention to pay for us to come to, which means we would need to get the views up in order to make it happen. -Brianne

Kristian Harloff

Have you heard of GeekGirlCon? It's a female-focused con that "celebrates women in science, tech, gaming, comics, and more" and I went last year and it was great. Would you and other competitors ever be interested in coming to it (Seattle) and doing a ladies-only Innergeekdom match? I know it would be great for the young girls in attendance to see the ladies of the Schmoedown show that girls and women are a part of geek culture as much as boys and men.

David Dranow

There aren't any rules but no one is checking either so if something is done twice, it will be done twice. -Brianne

Kristian Harloff

When a new competitors comes in, and they submit the idea of what their entrance will be, does anyone do a background check to see if someone else had already done an entrance like that OR used the same music? I'm surprised I haven't noticed anyone use the same music as another competitor. Are there any rules on using intro music someone else used?

David Dranow

There's about 15 minutes remaining... let me know if I can answer any questions for you. -Brianne

Kristian Harloff

Not while I'm around. -Brianne

Kristian Harloff

When is Mr. Dagnino taking over as the rightful commissioner?

Jure Mugerli

The email you can use is SchmoesContact@gmail.com but that email gets so many requests and emails that I know it is difficult for them to respond to each request/email. -Brianne

Kristian Harloff

This is my dream match. I suggest pitching it to the former commissioner. -Brianne

Kristian Harloff

Okay will do, thanks for all your hard work Brianne 😊

Thanks for hold frequent office hours Brianne. I really appreciate it. I have previously stated my intention to purchase a new Innergeekdom belt in addition to my monthly Patreon pledge. My offer still stands but I haven't heard back from anyone. Do you have a good email contact for whomever I should get in contact? I certainly don't mind spending another couple hundred dollars to help out. I would, however, like to get an answer one way or the other if you would like me to get a new belt. Thanks again!

Rob Schaefer

Did you listen to the interview between Kristian and Take 3 productions? -Brianne

Kristian Harloff

Hi Brianne! Any chance we have a match with all women coming up? I personally think the name: "Femme Fatale 5-Way" is catchy. Women commentators (You, Emma & Perri perhaps at the desk?) & women players: Clarke, Rachel, Jeannine the Machine, Grae & Stacy? Jen doing post-interviews? (That's my dream cast at least) 🤓❤ Thanks for all you do

Corrine DePatra

Has there been any discussion on rule changes after the Top 10 vs Patriots match? (not saying i think there should be, just curious)

It has been good but in order to grow the show we need to bring in more patrons. :) -Brianne

Kristian Harloff

That is always done in conjunction with the Singles and Team Tournaments. Last year, tournaments took place in the summer/fall. - Brianne

Kristian Harloff

Also a big thanks to you Brianne for being this voice. How is the structure of the program holding up so far since the transition to Mark and Kristian self producing.

Vernon Greene

Hi Brianne! It’s a little late to bring this up or ask this, but have you guys thought about doing a march madness edition of schmoedown (fans filling out brackets)? Maybe something to think about for next year?

Austin

The live event will be uploaded to YT but I believe it will be broken up into two videos and released on two different days (however, this may not be true at all as things change in the schedule). I believe it will be released this month. -Brianne

Kristian Harloff

That is a question you will need to ask Kristian directly as I do not know what matches have been announced and what matches have not been announced. Try hitting him up on the facebook page or the best place to ask him would be twitter. -Brianne

Kristian Harloff

You will be processed at that level for 3 months. Once you are fully processed for a total of $300 we will send you a personalized video from a competitor. I will also ask you for a list of your favorite SD personalities to see if I can get your number one choice to make a video for you. -Brianne

Kristian Harloff

Will the live event be uploaded on youtube and if so, when?

Jure Mugerli

That is your time that you pay for with the former commissioner that is set up as an audition, but again, it is your time. So you can consider what you'd like to do with that time. Also, you have to be at that tier for 2 consecutive months. -Brianne

Kristian Harloff

where can I find an updated scedule/timeline of all the upcoming matches announced so far? Can't seem to find it on the facebook group. Do you recommend I just post this same question there?

For $100 tier, how does that work out? I’m new to Patreon.

For the $300 tier "Skype Audition with Kristian Harloff" is that solely auditioning for the MTS or could I audition an idea to Kristian related to the MTS? I emailed the gmail account but never heard back. I'd be more than willing to pledge that but I'm no way talented enough to be a competitor. I just have a parallel idea I'd like to talk to Kristian about. Thanks for everything!

I honestly haven't thought about it and won't be thinking about it (I say this in the most respectful way as I just don't worry too much about rankings or belts in general). -Brianne

Kristian Harloff

I don't know if that is still happening. -Brianne

Kristian Harloff

Hey Brianne, Who is your pick to be champion by the end of the year 2018?

Scott stokes

Btw, when will the commish match be? Kristian vs Thadd

Yes, 48. - Brianne

Kristian Harloff

Hi Brianne! Thanks again for letting me know where to submit the original music for the Schmoedown! I was just wondering if 48 is the final number of people in the Free 4 All next month.

There's been mumblings of a ST match between competitors but I haven't heard it mentioned by the commissioners (so far). -Brianne

Kristian Harloff

Any plans for a Star Trek only match?

Gotcha! Well either way hope I get to meet ya! Either there or the meet up prior

Vernon Greene

I don't know how the meet and greet will work, nor do I know which competitors will be there. The meet and greet is put on by Full Screen (not Schmoes/Schmoedown) which is why I know very little about what the set up is. -Brianne

Kristian Harloff

Do we get to choose the competitor at the meet and greet we get our photo and autograph from?

Vernon Greene

Correct, the Star Trek slice is locked into innergeekdom. -Brianne

Kristian Harloff

I am sure there will be plans to do something but I don't know if it will be Schmoedown related. I also know it's very expensive to rent out venues in San Diego during CC. - Brianne

Kristian Harloff

Nope! It wasn't captured on my camera so unless it was saved to the tricaster, you won't see it. Even if it was saved, you wouldn't hear what they are saying because they took the headsets with the microphones off. -Brianne

Kristian Harloff

If you scroll down in the "posts" section, you will see a timeline for when the digital fulfillment will be released this month. -Brianne

Kristian Harloff

Is the star trek slice locked into innergeekdom only?

zeddef

Are there any plans for a Schmoedown event at this year's San Diego Comic-Con? Thank you for all the hard work, Brianne!

Will we ever get the behind the scenes look at the debate over the challenge that lead to re-spin? Kristians comment about it has me dying to see it all go down!

When will the March patreon match be posted?

Let me text the former commissioner and get back to you. - Brianne

Kristian Harloff

For tomorrow’s live event, do we need to bring printed out tickets or can we show them on our phone?

If you scroll down in the "posts" section, there is a link to an interview with Take 3 productions where they address the questions you have. Additionally, if you scroll down in the "posts" section, you will see a timeline for when the rest of the digital fulfillment will be released this month. -Brianne

Kristian Harloff

At what date will the next State of The Schmoedown be? Will the controversy behind the team title match be addressed as well as decisions moving forward to prevent another one in the future?
