| + | '''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. |

| − | From GamerGate Wiki
| + | == 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. |
| | | | |
| − | Jump to: [[#mw-navigation|navigation]], [[#p-search|search]]
| + | == 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. |
| | | | |
| − | This is a Wiki case page for dubious behavior involving Ubisoft PR. Use this page for adding resources and links.
| + | 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. |
| | | | |
| − | The goal is to compile a case which, once addressed professionally, will help '''change policies and clean up the industry'''. Remember, these journalists are vanilla—probably not SJWs—so we're straight up professional ethics here. People might be embarrassed, but they're pros so they can take it, and make the industry better by doing so. '''Permanent company ethical policy changes''' are the best outcome here
| + | == 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. |
| | | | |
| − | Lets try collaborating on compiling a case straight to the Wiki on this one to get people on. Don't use the talk page. Talk on the thread(Here's how you make a reference): 8chan Thread:<sup>[[#cite_note-1|[1]]]</sup> KiA Thread:<sup>[[#cite_note-2|[2]]]</sup>

| − | ==== UPDATE[[[index.php?title=Case-File-Ubisofts-Senior-PR&action=edit§ion=5|edit]]] ====
| |
| − | | |
| − | Alright, some of you are skeptical that there are no disclosure issues here so let me give an actionable example. Andrea Rene previewed Fantasia on The Escapist - http://www.escapistmagazine.com/videos/view/escapist-news-now/8943-Fantasia-Music-Evolved-Multiplayer-Preview-GDC-2014
| |
| − | | |
| − | Andrea Rene is dating John T Drake - (source: http://doddscientifics.wordpress.com/2014/03/25/why-gaming-journalism-needs-a-kick-in-the-ass/).
| |
| − | | |
| − | John T Drake ran Harmonix PR, before moving to work at Playstation. He was still working for Harmonix PR at the time this preview was published (source - http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?p=116871689 - John left Harmonix PR in June of this year, the Fantasia video went up in March)
| |
| − | | |
| − | There is no disclosure in the preview that the journalist was dating the head of PR at the company who developed Fantasia.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Is that concrete enough of an ethical concern to discuss?
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==== UPDATE 2[[[index.php?title=Case-File-Ubisofts-Senior-PR&action=edit§ion=6|edit]]] ====
| |
| − | | |
| − | People were asking about Greg Miller and any instances of ethical concerns. Well this page from last year has a great deal of them, when it comes to his bias towards Playstation - http://www.crappyreviews.com/gaming-news-and-notes/how-can-we-trust-ign-to-be-fair-and-balanced

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.
- GRAND DAD 2: SPASTIC BOOGALOO
- GRAND DAD 3: THE GAUNTLET OF ASS (FEATURING SMOL NOZOMI, TITO DICKMAN, SPONGE, HE THICC, and SANS UNDERTALE)
