Phil begging for his viewers to hit the Goal but he's already confirmed that he's going to be hosting a begathon this Friday anyway.
So why wouldn't people save up their money until then? He seriously expects his fanbase to shell out $300 every day until he demands they give him upwards of $1000 in the span of a week.
Also threatening to wagequit Halo. "If you guys want me to play this longterm, please contribute...you guys said you wanted to see this, but support hasn't been coming in..." but remember you aren't expected to tip.
EDIT: Someone named "The Silent Majority" donated a Superchat telling Phil that a low amount of donations doesn't mean people aren't interested. Phil told him that "he's operating a business as well as a hobby", and he has to "play what's viable." So we are just in it for the money, then?
