    I've been trying to hit the 100 Subscriber mark for quite sometime now, and I'm stuck at 92/100. At 100 Subscribers I plan to have a Raffle in which I'll give-away a $25 Gift card to any location of somebodies choice.

    I'm looking for a review on my channel, constructive criticism(I will probably respond and give arguments for why I did something, but also appreciate your input and likely make changes around it)

    I want to grow as I can.

    My current upload schedule is quite wonky, being that I upload every 3-4 days right now from my original 1-2 day upload schedule, I know I'll be getting less attention.

    I've just hit 70 uploads, and I'm at 92 Subscribers. Help me hit 100 for that giveaway, and help me improve.

    Appreciate it! <3

    My Youtube is in my signature.

    Nice channel overall, however to try and gain some more subscribers you maybe should explore and venture into some more recent games and try and upload more often.

    I would, but at the moment I don't have a computer capable of playing large-scale games. I enjoy sticking to my roots within the Indie community, which I know plenty have a love for.

    The only games I'm currently thinking of grabbing would be Undertale, Limbo, and a few other Indie games like those that I know people enjoy, and I haven't played yet.

    I've also just gotten Pokemon Moon so if I can manage to record that I'll be uploading some of that as well while it's still a very hot topic.

    Logo and banner look great!
    Thumbnails look good.
    Good to see that you have Playlists setup.
    You should add some more info about yourself in the about page.

    Working on your tags would definitely help get you more exposure. There's a 500 character limit to utilize, and it can help out nicely depending on the video topic.

    As for video content, it really depends on your target audience. Who are you looking to attract, and what do you offer aside from entertainment?

    I typically jam pack my tags as long as it's relevant to my videos.

    And I'm unsure what you mean 'aside from entertainment.' - I'm charming, I'm friendly, I don't know what else you could be referencing.

    That might be a subjective way of looking at it. Everyone tries to make entertaining videos, but they tend to only apply to a small amount of viewers. Imagine why someone should watch your videos, over anyone else who might have better equipment, a better personality, or they have a unique approach to their content. Something needs to stand out, otherwise it could get overlooked compared to all the other competition.

    The only thing that I can say is that you could be working on in your channel is your audio believe it or not a lot of people tend to click away from videos due to poor audio quality you can have the best video quality out there but if the audio quality doesn't match up it can hurt you in the long run my advice would be to invest into a better microphone or download some free audio software like audacity for example it will really help you tune up your audio quality even if you have a low quality microphone just learn how to use some of the plugins and your gold other thin that your channel is good

    p.s. If you're having trouble playing some newer games I would suggest trying indie games they're still fairly popular and most computers can run them fairly easily :)

    I play Indie games, and I always find my audio sounds pretty fine when I run-through and edit it and use noise removal to fix it. Sounds relatively fine on my end when I play it too.. I don't know if it's just my speakers playing it fine or what ? I know in older videos I've had it very static-y.

    then you might be putting to much noise removal in it because it fades in and out really bad on my end I even tryed it on my phone and my other pc got the same results on my end

    Oh my.
    Thank you so much for letting me know that.
    Could you check multiple videos for me and tell me WHAT videos do it? I'm gonna really have to work on things!
    I'm probably going to be taking a bit of a hiatus from uploading anyway - I'm gonna focus on changing up my style. I want to get into rants, and not do the whole Town of Salem thing anymore. I'm not that interested in it; I've focused on it for roughly 4-5 months now?

    I know I haven't been doing this YouTube thing very long only 28 days now but I have 74 subscribers Andover 4000 views so the only thing I can say is that make sure what you're doing is something you love doing regardless if it's playing a game ranting or whatever you may be doing because people will see that in you and want to follow you and try to stay consistent wish you the best of luck and as far as the videos that were cutting in and out it was mainly your newer Hearthstone videos which I like the warrior too but mage is where it's at

    May I have a link to your channel please? I would love to have a look at it. :)

    You're doing something right, and I'm doing things very wrong. I think I'll pick up a nice microphone next week and really work on things.

    Hiatus time, maybe? haha. When I return doing videos I think it'll be an upload schedule of every 3 days until I'm really settled.

    And pfft. Warrior/Handlock all the way.
