Mikengreg, Solipskier, Gasketball

 * ... that the success of Mikengreg Solipskier (Greg Wohlwend's high score pictured) gave them the means to experiment when making Gasketball?

 * I'm afraid I haven't worked in videos, but this one seems quite long (4 minutes) for a main page thing and is quite repetative. If you want it approved, bearing in mind it may well not be used, I'm afraid you'll have to explain to me how it's fair use from YouTube, as I don't quite follow.

 * File:Greg gets 59m high score in Solipskier.webm No one's obligated to watch the whole thing through the same way no one's obligated to click through the pictures or GIFs or whatnot. The video was released by the game's creator (see OTRS permission). czar ♔   16:10, 25 July 2014 (UTC)
 * OK, so video good to go if wanted. Thanks, Mat  ty  .  007  17:06, 25 July 2014 (UTC)
 * I think Mikengreg is OK: long enough, neutral, no copyvios in few spotchecks, so all looks good there. Thanks, Mat  ty  .  007  16:05, 26 July 2014 (UTC)
 * , hey—just checking back in about the rest of the review czar ♔   16:54, 2 August 2014 (UTC)
 * Symbol confirmed.svg Sorry, been off wiki for a few days. Solipskier is long enough, new enough, neutral, and no paraphrasing in spot checks, as is Gasketball. Sourcing is all good, I would quite like some negative reviews if you can, but nothing to hold up the nom. Hook fact is cited in article. Thanks, Mat  ty  .  007  07:05, 4 August 2014 (UTC)
