Red Giant Entertainment CEO Benny Powell Lies....again

"Currently we are looking at approximately 10,000 subscriptions, which is an amazing start, but we know many of you are waiting until the last minute."

That was the statement from Red Giant Entertainment on their Zwagbox FB page. So do they already 10,000 subscribers ? Or does this mean they expect to get to 10,000 subscribers sometime in future.

If it is the former, it should not be a big problem to provide proof of 10,000 subscribers as of May 27th. Given their past history, this should assuage a number of concerns. Can we get a 8K or PR and with sufficient proof of the subscriber count. Anyway, my attempts to get the proof or any other comment got no responses from the board members, which is understandable. They don't like pointed questions and answer only what they want to talk about, thereby hiding behind their lies and deception.

If it is the latter, they I sure as hell did not see any safe-harbor or forward looking statement. And contrary to popular belief the statements on social media do NOT fall under forward-looking statements by default. Note that I expect, Benny Powell to lie and mislead the investors given his track record for past 3-4 years. However, note that even rest of the board members are also in this lie this time around.

I understand people say Markiplier has a number of fans who are interested in this kind of product. To them, I only say, ask Red Giant to show the proof and shut me up. Sadly history is not on your side.

I would hope all the investors of past and present who dealt with Benny for many years at-least ask for proof of 10,000 subscribers as of May 27th. But I guess it is difficult when Benny is flaming the fantasies with more audacious lies.

Until you get some proof, take it from me that Benny is at it again - lying and misleading. Thanks, -Kirak

Email exchange between Red Giant Entertainment’s CEO Benny Powell and myself about FB ban

The following email exchange took place between CEO Benny Powell and myself. I will add my thoughts on this later in detail. First I want people to read this exchange unbiased and make their own judgement. 

This is unedited mail exchange. I just commented the mail addresses/phone numbers.

Can you guess what happened after I sent my last mail ?

Initial Impressions of Tandem T-Slim G4 Insulin Pump

I have been a diabetic for ever and for the last 5-6 years, I have been using Medtronic Minimed insulin pump.  I was happy with it and  I should say I had no issues with the pump itself during all this time. But lately I had some issues with buttons (considering I used it way past the warranty, I think that is okay) and I was on look out for a new pump.

So  I looked at all the latest insulin pumps on the market.  One day all the different companies brought their pumps to display at my doctors office and I had a chance to meet the people and look at the various pumps up close. I went into that meeting wanting to take another Medtronic pump (I am person of habit :-) ). But looking at the various pumps, I thought the Tandem insulin pump was great to look at and its touch screen was very cool and easy for me. Working with it a few minutes, I felt  I was currently using flip phone when a new iPhone model was available at a similar rate( at-least thats I  felt).

Over the next few days, I looked into this Tandem pump and the company some more.  I was told that they were working on integrating the Tandem pump with Dexcom G4 Continuous Glucose Monitor (CGM) and it would be out in  few months after the approval process. And it was exactly what I wanted. Who doesn’t like carry one less receiver in their pocket.

Anyway, this September/October,  Tandem started shipping Tandem T-Slim G4 and I think I was one of the first to get one.  And I used this new pump for couple of weeks now and I should I am so glad I made the correct decision.

Here are my initial impressions and I added a few pics to give you an idea to understand what you get.

The touch screen is just awesome and is living unto my expectations.

Big thing for me was a less painful insertion process. So far, I can say  insertion with  Tandem has been a lot less painful compared to my previous pump. I could not be happier in that regard.

The Tandem menu is pretty intuitive and easy to understand and learn. After pump training, it took me just a day to be really comfortable with most of the ins n outs of the menu. 

The supplies cost a lot less than my medtronic supplies. 

This pump comes with 4 year warranty. 

The customer service has been really proactive and helpful in my case. 

Works seamlessly with Dexcom. The pump acts as a Dexcom receiver. 

Charging is easy and it lasts a long time (roughly 5-6 days so far). Or you can do it 5 mins each day and should easily last the whole day.

I do have couple of  minor things that can be improved with the pump and insertion process (like pump not being able to link to any glucose meters etc).  However, it is too early for me to decide if it is just me needing more time using the pump or if they are genuine suggestions. So I decided to give it sometime and will add them in another post later if  I think they are relevant.

Bottomline is finding the correct Insulin pump is one of the best things that can at this time for diabetics. And finding it is not an easy job considering the number of options we have.  I am glad I made a correct choice to meet my needs. Hopefully others who are looking can take also look into this pump…

NOTE: I am also into investing. So after using this pump, I decide to invest in Tandem (as I did with Dexcom sometime back).

GIANT-SIZE ADVENTURE (AMPED/MAGIKA)

One of the series of the Giant-Size Line free comics is the Giant-Size Adventure series. Consisting of double features AMPED and MAGIKA in a flip book, these will be available for FREE (starting) 3rd Wednesday of every month. So first time you will Giant-Size Adventure Issue #1 is on November 18th then Giant-Size Adventure Issue #2 on December 16th and so on.

AMPED - What began as a government-sponsored program to give mobility to young patients resulted in six teen minds trapped in android bodies that now everyone is intent on acquiring. Now it's up to them to save themselves while trying to save the world.

While the story reminds of Big Hero 6 or Samurai Rangers in terms what to expect in terms of all the adventures, AMPED seems to be one of the few comics featuring differently-abled teens as leading characters. Another reason to look forward to it.

MAGIKA - Niko is a child of two worlds, our own and a wondrous land of enchantment known as Magika, a place where myths and monsters come alive. When those two realities suddenly collide it is up to Niko and his new friends to somehow protect both worlds from deadly consequences.

MAGIKA is based on animated feature film NIKO: JOURNEY TO MAGIKA which is available for FREE on HULU (hulu.com/watch/721296). NIKO: JOURNEY TO MAGIKA chronicles a young boy's hair-raising adventures in a fantastical land of myths and monsters on a search for his kidnapped grandparents.
