- Apologies if you're trying to tweet me. My stream is unusable – several tweets a second re: Athene's hunger strike. http://t.co/IHtkNSQc #
- Tweetbombing people is a really good way to lose credibility for your cause, no matter how worthy. #
- @Alriksson78 I understand – I don't blame them. I blame Athene. It's DDoS for a "good cause." Not ok. in reply to Alriksson78 #
- But you made Twitter unusable for me during a show. Is that what you wanted @bmarky? in reply to bmarky #
- Now I'm getting tweet bombed with apologies. OK OK!! Peace! #
- @shiralazar A YouTube broadcaster (Athene) asked his followers to all tweet me at once. Made Twitter unusable. Raised awareness and my ire. in reply to shiralazar #
- @Smishykins NOTHING anyone has tweeted to me in the past hour will ever get seen thanks to Athene's stupidity. That's a DDoS. in reply to Smishykins #

- @TheBrain0110 yeah great idea! More advertisers! in reply to TheBrain0110 #
- Listen carefully @vanroberts – I always say both. #
- Hey @markparrott1978 we would have taken any ads at all. The gaming industry wouldn't even look at something with fewer than 50K views. in reply to markparrott1978 #
- Live viewers are a fraction of downloads @vanroberts – a few thousand here and there make no diff. in reply to vanroberts #
- Oh it does @CombatReadyCat – we do very well with a relatively tiny audience because you all are so engaged! in reply to CombatReadyCat #

- @telonaes You're right – my apologies. I'm fixing it now. in reply to telonaes #
- Do not download the TWiT HD version on iTunes. We put the wrong episode in the feed. Fixing it as soon as I can wake someone up. #
- All the other feeds for TWiT 347 are fine – or grab it from the web site http://t.co/VxS3RWUm #
- I am so sorry. It's a 2GB download. I am deeply ashamed of our screwup. #
- It's not cachefly @nickswift498 – our production staff screwed up. in reply to nickswift498 #

- RT @JHarold: "Follow it up with an epic rant about how you fired your staff, closed the TWIT cottage and headed for the hills!" I'm tempted! #
- @stevepiazza Yeah Roku uses the same feed. We've fixed the feed and the correct files should start propagating soon. -sigh- in reply to stevepiazza #
- @Readdle You just did. I'll check it out. Thanks! in reply to Readdle #
- @renusm iPhone goes to the hospital today. I'm curious to see if the "I got wet" strip has changed color. in reply to renusm #
- @radiocolin Which of course means we'll have the ability to screw all the feeds up automatically! Whoopee! #

- @BenjaminZAMayo I think Paul corrected me – apps are paused. I should say the interface to app history is great. in reply to BenjaminZAMayo #
- Yes @timatlee – I've cancelled Game On. We planned 12 eps but the show was just too expensive and too little watched to do more. -sigh- in reply to timatlee #
- We tried the gaming roundtable for six months before GO! @Strembitsky – remember At The Controls? in reply to Strembitsky #
- We tried that @CohenJordan – At The Controls got six months and no traction. I think gaming's not for TWiT. in reply to CohenJordan #

- Watch it how you like it @bretjennings – we get credit regardless! in reply to bretjennings #
- Are you kidding @cbeagrie? @Veronica is a star. Sword & Laser, Tekzilla, etc. Game On was a minor part of her empire! in reply to cbeagrie #
- That was the idea @pchampness – we won't stop being ambitious, I promise! Thanks! in reply to pchampness #
- The cost of adding video is merely incremental @SeeJayEmm – and a bet on the future. in reply to SeeJayEmm #
- Interesting @rptrane – an audio only show about gaming? Did you listen to At The Controls? in reply to rptrane #

- I hired the best gamers I could find @djjester – suggestions? in reply to djjester #
- RT @MisterPuck: @leolaporte If you want to do a gaming show, get some people who are actually gamers to host and run it #TWiT style. #
- RT @MisterPuck: "If you want to do a gaming show get some people who are actually gamers…" and this is why we don't do gaming shows. #
- The previous tweet is why I can't do a gaming show. There is no gaming "community." Just a bunch of warring parties. #
- I agree @Tinnvec that's why I hired @shwood and @veronica. I think they're stars. #
