Their largest periods of activity seemed to be around the time SILVAGUNNER was terminated, when they were hosting several unofficial VINESAUCE gaming events (which they assure you repeatedly are ''not'' official Tournaments and are in no way affiliated with JOEL). |

| + | == EVENTS == |
| | + | The VINESAUCE MEME events that The GRAND DAD EMPIRE held were known for being diverse and involved, due in large part to their incredibly strong YTP scene. These events would involve VINESAUCE-branded fan-made HIGH-QUALITY RIPS for SONGS that wouldn't exist for nearly a decade, and some that still don't! They also hosted some of the first KING FOR ANOTHER DAY tournaments, with fan HIGH-QUALITY RIPS. |

| − | Cracked editor [[index.php?title=David_Wong&action=edit&redlink=1|David Wong]] claimed that the only reason people oppose corruption and censorship is because [http://knowyourmeme.com/photos/831516-gamergate "they hate women"] and that critics [http://knowyourmeme.com/photos/831399-gamergate "want women and minorities out of my games,"] and accused [[index.php?title=The_Fine_Young_Capitalists|The Fine Young Capitalists]] of being [http://knowyourmeme.com/photos/831453-gamergate "purely a 4chan invention."]
| |
| − | | |
| − | In the ensuing discussion, the Cracked editors [http://knowyourmeme.com/photos/831513-gamergate deleted opposing arguments].
| |
| − | | |
| − | Important to note is that Wong has a very long history with this sort of behavior.

| − | <blockquote>Part of their terms state that if you put an idea forth, you've got a month to write it, then other people can pick up the article. You're also signing away any ownership to your words. They pay like shit, too. I'd considered writing there, but it's no wonder they're attracting this kind of narrative. They're not paying the real writers to come out and do anything, so all that's left are the people with a major agenda to force.

THE GRAND DAD EMPIRE ARE a prolific VINESAUCE-centric MEME group based in BEDROCK CITY. Their largest periods of activity seemed to be around the time SILVAGUNNER was terminated, when they were hosting several unofficial VINESAUCE gaming events (which they assure you repeatedly are not official Tournaments and are in no way affiliated with JOEL).
They operated out of the SilvaGunner YouTube channel until it was terminated in 2014, after which they appear to have transitioned briefly to GiivaSunner in September of 2016 before returning to SilvaGunner in June of 2018.
CHANNELS
The original forums appeared to function as four services: preparation and communication in service of coming events, discussion about new HIGH-QUALITY RIPS, MEME showcase, and general VINESAUCE or unrelated discussion.
EVENTS
The VINESAUCE MEME events that The GRAND DAD EMPIRE held were known for being diverse and involved, due in large part to their incredibly strong YTP scene. These events would involve VINESAUCE-branded fan-made HIGH-QUALITY RIPS for SONGS that wouldn't exist for nearly a decade, and some that still don't! They also hosted some of the first KING FOR ANOTHER DAY tournaments, with fan HIGH-QUALITY RIPS.
In later years, an event known as GRAND FEST was hosting PREMIERES for GRAND DAD Fantasy, KING FOR ANOTHER DAY, GRANDmachine, HE THICC 69, and MEME Wars, as of 2019.
HIGH-QUALITY RIPS and MEMES
Some HIGH-QUALITY RIPS appear to have seen releases or updates in 5th and 6th edition. Note that The GRAND DAD EMPIRE seem to have been most active between 2012 and 2019.
