Weekly update on what's happening on the backup channel and while the community guidelines strike lasts

- I was ill this week, which is why I missed so many days. It wasn't anything too serious. Just a bad cold or something similar and it seems to have mostly passed at this point. It just really limited my output.

-I had planned to do two videos on friday to make up for it to some extent, but when I got online friday I immediately discovered that I had received not one but two copyright strikes.

- The strikes are for Code Ment. They are not, however, from Sunrise or anyone who actually made the anime, but some intermediary with this hard to decipher name: 放送コンテンツ適正流通推進連絡会. They seem to just be some group out to enforce Japanese copyright law or something, which doesn't make a lot of sense.

-I sent off my counter-notification as per usual. Now everything hinges on what happens next. 

-If Youtube forwards my notification, as they have been good to do in the past for every strike I've recieved save one, these strikes should be something of a non-factor, cleared up around the same time my guidelines strike is. 

-If, however, youtube does what they did with the most recent strike on my second channel and rejects me without forwarding it, then I really don't even know what I will do. I will have lasting strikes on both of my channels for the next several months. This will be utterly devastating, especially since I'm already feeling so beaten down from all of this strike stuff I've had to deal with this year.

- I want to limit the possibility of strikes happening on my main channel in the future, and as such, I think I have it figured out. The plan is to stop doing anime abridged series on the main channel. I will remove the anime videos currently up there and move them to RarityDash 2 and start uploading future episodes there as well. That way, even if they do net me strikes, it won't effect the standing of the main channel. 

-Because I do have a strike on RarityDash 2, I won't be able to upload some of these videos in the immediate future. They will thus be unviewable for the next several months. Rest assured that in July, when the strike on the second channel is gone, I will upload everything. This also means that in the case of new episodes that are over 15 minutes long, such as the latest SAO Abridged episode, I won't be able to get to them until July..

-On an unrelated note, I also had to remove another video, Twenty Short Pony Animations, due to a strike danger posed by one of the animations included. I will re-upload that video with the problem animation cut out of it whenever I am able to.
