Chris: Hello?

Arthur: Yes, hello Christine.

Chris: Yes, hello, Arthur.

Arthur: It's nice--

Chris: How are you?

Arthur: --to speak to you again, it's been quite some time.

Chris: Yes, I've been quite... busy, and uh, backed up with a whole bunch of, uh, this and thats, you know.

Arthur: [murmurs something]

Chris: So anyway, yeah. How are you?

Arthur: I'm just dandy. How about yourself?

Chris: Yeah, I'm fair to okay.

Arthur: Fair to okay. All right, um, well I mean it's been so long I want to catch up a little bit; like, you know, how's everything over in America with your politics?

Chris: Uh, I don't-- I don't-- know much about-- I don't know much about politics, but I know wh-- I know what I like. And I definitely had taken it under consideration the qualities of Obama before I voted for him and comparing him to McCain, in 2008. Ha ha.

Arthur: Right now, Donald Trump's making quite an ass of himself, isn't he?

Chris: Yes, I don't care much for him. [unintelligible blustering] --Ah, which is among the reasons I'm definitely voting for Hillary Clinton if I get the chan-- if I get to in November.

Arthur: Oh, you like her platform?

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Uhh, well actually more like, uhh, I feel like this w-- country is long overdue for a woman's touch.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: That's it?

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Among which, and definitely I would not put Trump in. I'd rather send him to the dump. Send Trump to the dump.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: You know, that's an eloquent, you know, campaign title right there. I like that.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Huh.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: 'Trump to the dump!'

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: That's funny. ...Yeah. So anyway, umm, okay, so let's get this over with, what do we need to, uh, what do you need to know for the final part of this?

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Well, to be perfectly honest, we were ready to set up a contract about a few weeks ago, but I couldn't get ahold of you.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Oh... right. I forgot about that, I mean, I've been... And plus, uh, also, I'm talk-- I'm talking with my associates, you know.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: I understand.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Uh, but anyway, so, yeah. Umm... all right, well yeah, let's talk about that.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Well, we uh, we were setting up the contract. Um, it was going to be like a five million dollar sign-on contract and everything, it was gonna be a big deal, but when I couldn't get ahold of you, they thought that you simply lost interest. And I told them you hadn't, but for the--

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Yeah, I had not lost interest. But really, to-- I would-- I would feel better setting up, uh, such a deal, um, yeah, through my associates as well, I mean... yeah. You have, uhh, her email address?

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Yes, yes. But um, anyway, so it got kind of pushed on to the back burner -- it's not dead yet, but--

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: All right.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: --I have to put a little more emphasis in getting it restarted again.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Okay. All right, well--

<font color="#009966">Arthur: But don't worry about that. I'm not going to give up on you, Chris. I want to see this happen.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Okay, that's good.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: But one of the things I have to say is when someone looked up Sonichu, to help set up the contract? Something caught her attention.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: What's up?

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Apparently, nobody, at this moment, actually owns the legal rights to Sonichu.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Mm.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Apparently--

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: The what rights?

<font color="#009966">Arthur: App-- apparently, the last time that a patent was put out on Sonichu, it wasn't put down as a product, so much as an associate.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Hm. Well, I don't know the diff-- I don't know the total difference. But, I mean, I do have-- I did, uh, make the, uh, copyright into the DC Library of Congress a few years ago, and uh, my associates are helping me, uhh, recap-- recapituate and get all-- get all that back up to date, among which. Umm, yes.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Okay, you definitely want to do that, because you wouldn't want somebody to steal that.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: All right. Yeah, and this, uhh, call, we do not want this call that we're talking about right now to be put on to the internet at all. 'Cause we're talking business here and I don't wanna have anything overheard by, um-- by-- you know, the wrong people.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Oh, absolutely. Absolutely, I understand. But other than that, you'll find this funny: the other day, I was-- because I'm a big Sonic and Sonichu fan, I was--

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: All right.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: --checking out the Sonic, the actual S-- well, actually the Sega Twitter, is it Sega or Sonic? I can't tell, really, who's more on top--

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Uhh, I believe you-- you're thinking about the Sonic the Hedgehog Twitter? Uhh, I-- perhaps you're referencing, uhh, the subscription to the Big the Cat--

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Yes!

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: [?] channel...

<font color="#009966">Arthur: I noticed--

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: ...or Robotnik. Yeah.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: --they mentioned Sonichu.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Yes. Umm, yes, my associate had turned me onto it. You know it's, uhh, for the purposes I'm just, uhh, not saying her name for in case anybody overhears.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Absolutely.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Anyway, you know-- but you know who I'm talking about.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Mm, mm, yes.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: But right, I have, uh, seen that.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Yes, and they actually straight mentioned Sonichu. And you know what that means, right, Chris?

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Umm... I actually came up with, uh, two interpretations from that. Uh, one of which, umm... yeah, still ta-- the-- they're talking about Sonichu for uh, the uh, bigger part, but then also, it's being talked about like as if it's a reference as being a favourite of Big the Cat, and he's not one of the most liked characters in the original franchise, there.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: True, true. But the fact that a official Sonic character is mentioning Sonichu, means that--

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Right...

<font color="#009966">Arthur: --they still consider him a canon character.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Oh. Okay, well I had not thought of that.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Yes.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: It is interesting.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Well, 'cause, you know, for all we know, Sega might be thinking of something behind the scenes that even we haven't heard of.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Hm. Well, I'll definitely, uhh... Well, yeah, my associate has, uh, mentioned it, I-- much, I, uhh-- me-- I send a message to Sega, letting them know that I know about that.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Mm-hm. Definitely, definitely.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: That I've heard about that. So-- and, well, see what-- and see where that goes. Umm, all right, but you encouraged me a little bit more to do that.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Oh, de-- you definitely should.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Okay.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: 'Cause I mean, hey, I mean, if they're mentioning the character themselves on an official Twitter, that's a big deal.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Yes. Yes it is.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Now uh, something else, umm, you know, your associate and I, we were talking and they mentioned something just the other day -- you finally got your PS4 you've been after. Congratulations!

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Yes, thank you. Uhh, shoot. Uh, her name escapes me at the moment, but yeah, I wrote it down, yeah: Kagney Lynn Moore, Seattle, Washington. Uh, yeah, she sent that to me.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Oh, she gifted it to you?

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Yes.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Ah.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: And I gave-- and I sent her the uh, voucher to the, uh, Cwcville Shop.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Really, really.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: And uh, she redeemed it really quick, just as I described on the, uh, video I-- the first streaming I made through the PS4.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: That--

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Yeah.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: --is nice.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Of which I'm st-- of which I'm still learning about that, um. Umm, I'm thinking about, uh, what I'd like to try if I can figure out how, is to, uhh, yeah, definitely for the planned autism tutorial commentary video that I'm fun-- that I'm-- that's in-- that's in my head, and of which I have to do some updating on the, uh, vide-- on the, uh, animation levels, there, uploaded [where?] streaming for viewing through the PS4 version of Little Big Planet 3, 'cause right now, uhh, I view them through the PS4, on the, uhh-- uploaded, on the server. I come up-- I come up shirtless.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Really.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: It's like my ch-- my character's not wearing a shirt on there. I was like, 'What the heck's up with that?'

<font color="#009966">Arthur: [interrupts briefly]

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: So I'm going to have to figure-- so I'm going to have to--

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Sorry.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: --figure that out.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: I was going to ask, have you considered starting a Let's Play channel?

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Umm... Let's Play, what does that-- umm, what does that mean?

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Well, Let's Play is a popular YouTube group of people -- not really like an, an association or group, literally, but what you do is you record yourself playing games and then you upload them, online.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Oh.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: 'Cause if-- it's really easy to do on PS4. I have a PS4, and I could teach you--

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Oh.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: --how to do it.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Okay, well, uhh, what's your username, you can send me a friend request, and I'll definitely accept it.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Oh yes, I'll send it to you at-- at the end of this call, 'cause actually, I was going to-- I had an idea.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: What's up?

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Well, if you start a Let's Play channel, you can put ads on it and create a small amount of ad revenue.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Yes. I have already, uhh, set up an account with AdSense, and I've s-- I've opted in and said [?] among the, uh, videos, so I've gotten that started.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Well, if I'm going to join you on a PlayStation 4, we should play a game together.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: All right, umm... what's your favourite PS4 game?

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Well, I have a lot of games, and unfortunately, a lot of my favourite ones simply aren't multiplayer. However, I do know one game on the PlayStation 4 marketplace that is a game we can play against each other.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Hmm. I w-- uh, off the top of my head, I could definitely say Little Big Planet 3 and any of the, uh, co-op play levels uploaded or on the, uh, game disc, but you tell me what you have in mind.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Well, I know for a fact that on the marketplace, there's a Yu-Gi-Oh game.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Oh. Okay, Yu-Gi-Oh. Yeah, I have played that card game before, quite a bit. I still have my old deck that I used, off and on, it's Spellcaster themed. I definitely have Dark Magician and Dark Magician Girl in there.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Oh nice, nice. Well yes, um, I was thinking that... I know you're probably a little strapped for cash right now, so how about as a belated birthday present, I send you a little game code, and you can pick up the game off the marketplace?

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Umm... okay, well make sure that I can actually redeem that code in the Unite-- on the United States store front--

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Oh, I don't think it--

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: --versus, uh, versus the one that's-- that's on the, uh, where you are, in England.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Oh, don't worry. I will go to Amazon and do it there, and that-- and then it won't be a problem.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Okay. Mm.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: You give me just a tick, and I'll set it up right now.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: All right. Mm. Well I'm gonna [link?] it up while I'm thinking about it. I've already linked up my Vita so I can do remote play and all that, so...

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Oh, that's nice.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: It's like I don't have-- I don't have to interrupt my [?] to turn that on. It's about as amazing-- it's quite as amazing as the Wii U, definitely.

[muffled background noise from TV]

<font color="#009966">Arthur: ...What are you watching, there?

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: ...What's that?

<font color="#009966">Arthur: What are you watching, there? I can hear something in the background.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Oh yeah, I'm watching Seinfeld on CBS.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Oh. Yes, I heard something strange vibrating earlier, I wondered what it was.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: ...Uhh... vibrating. Um, yeah, I'm sure that's probably what was coming from the TV show. Oh yeah, Yu-Gi-Oh Legacy of the Duelist? Is that the one you're talking about?

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Yes.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: All right, I'm just looking up to see if there's the uh, add-on DLC here.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: I think there's a lot of add-on DLC.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Hm. I'm counting it, it's like one, two, three, four, five, six, seven... eight. All five dollars apiece here. I'll definitely look into that.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Well, right there, Christine, I just sent it to you.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Hmm, what, via email? Or to my...

<font color="#009966">Arthur: No, right there in the chat. The little window right now? The one we're in? Go down to the--

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Oh.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: --little word balloon in the corner?

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Mm, where-- mm, oh. All right. Oh...

<font color="#009966">Arthur: The digit code should be right there, you should try it right now.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: All right. I gotta get back to the front.

[silence for some time apart from the TV noise; Chris murmurs letters and numbers from the code]

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Mm. Well, twenty dollar-- that was a twenty dollar code, yep, I got it.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Yep, it should be just enough for the game.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Yes, it is nineteen ninety-nine here.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Perfect.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: I'll purchase it right now.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: All right. Takes some time to get used to it, I'll have to pick it up myself now, but I was thinking about you when I looked at it.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: All right, that's good. Thank you.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Yes, I was thinking take some time to get used to it, and then maybe we could have a little competition.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: All right.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: We could li-- you could livecast it from your console, or I could livecast it, whichever-- if you want to do it for your channel, you'll have to livecast it, and don't worry, it's super easy setting it up on PS4.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Yes, it is.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: And then we could have a nice little competition, your friends could watch a video of you playing against somebody else online.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: All right.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: See if you're still as good as you used to be.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Mm. Used to be. I pretty much, uhh, good mindset and memory of how the game's played.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Oh, I'll have to definitely--

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: I'll try to put together a deck with the digital cards similar to what I have in the old original deck. And I still have that for reference.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Well then, I think umm, I think we'll have to come up with a little wager when that time comes around.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Ehh, we'll see.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Oh, nothing bad. Maybe something along the lines of if I win, uh, two out of three, you make some new Sonichu Christmas Special pages. But if you win--

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Uh, I was gonna-- I was gonna do that anyway--

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Oh.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: --I just had not gotten around to it, I've been so busy with the, uh, orders from my shop and everything.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Well, I mean, if you won, I'd buy you a PlayStation 4 game or something.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: All right. And then I guess I'd buy you one, if, uh...?

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Oh no, no, no. All I would want would be more Sonichu pages.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: All right, well, definitely in the-- in my mind, and all in the works, and everything, believe me.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Go ahead. Get that game, give it a shot, I'll have to pick it up myself to play it as well; but once we get that set up, we should definitely look into a Let's Play together. Just to have fun.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: That sounds good.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Well, Christine, I think we've covered everything today, and like I said, check up on that legality stuff. I'm gonna get back with my people and let them know that you're still very interested in this.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Yes.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: But keep your ear to the phone, because if I'm looking for you, I need to find you as soon as possible.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: All right, well definitely, uh, relay the, uh, details to my associates as well, please.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Absolutely, Christine. Now you take care and you have fun.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: All right, yeah-- yeah, you take care and have-- and have fun and have a good day, too.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Yes, happy--

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Don't forget to send me your friend request.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Yes-- oh, that's right, I'm gonna send you that here right now, I'm gonna give you my name. Now, don't be, um, misled: I set myself up for a US account simply because then it looks like I'm on time with the US people.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Quite.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: A lot of people don't-- a lot of people over here don't play on PlayStation or Xbox people.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Hm.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: But that's my name, and I will, uh, you send me a friend request as soon as possible.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Uhh, wait a minute, I'm sorry, uh... I-- I thought you were in the-- in the midst-- I thought you were telling me [about your?] details. What was your name?

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Oh, it's right there, in the little... that little window, where I sent you the code.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Oh, oh, Blue Walrus. Okay. ...Well, I'll definitely keep my eyes open for that.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: All right, yes. Just send me a friend request whenever you have time. But other than that, Christine, you have yourself a happy belated birthday, and I will get back to you as soon as possible.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Okay, good, you take care.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Thank you. You take care as well.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: All right.

<font color="#009966">Arthur: Goodbye.

<font color="#0033FF">Chris: Okay, bye bye.
