Chief Show: Episode 4 - "Lots of Dead People"
Watch.
Video description: Master Chief is back to the small screen! An interview with Chief and Cortana, unknown news stories, and a tribute to all the celebrities who passed away in the last six months.
This was supposed to be uploaded on Friday, but I felt bad about delaying "Owning a Pet" and finished the video early so, Happy Thanksgiving!
Poll Results: Thanksgiving Special finished with 3 votes, Christmas was next with 5 votes, and New Year's Special won with 10 votes! Thanks to all who voted on the poll!
On a quick note, there will be no Chief Show on Christmas day or Fanmail on day after New Year's. I'm taking off the week of Christmas, except for working on the New Year's Special. There will be a Fanmail on 12/4, Chief Show on 12/11, and Christmas-themed Fanmail on 12/18. This fanmail will contain Christmas questions which I will ask for. Fanmail and Chief Shows will continue alternating Fridays starting the second Friday of January with a Chief Show.
Owning a Pet has a finished script. I will arrange the audio and pics soon. And, of course, the subtitles. I tried using a new caption feature from youtube to auto-place subtitles. Of course, it didn't work at all.
I hope you guys have a great Thanksgiving and spend some time with your families! Don't eat too much turkey (screw that, eat as much as you want :D).

Updates and Stuff
First off, you may have noticed that I FINALLY recreated the image at the top of the page with Photoshop that I just reinstalled. I kept the ZZ logo but removed the circle around it. I added "Hundreds of subscribers and counting!" and "since 2007". Also, this version is cleaner than the previous one, and now includes Sam and Cortana. If you checked my blog in the last few minutes, you had the opportunity to see multiple images at the top of the screen as I was testing them. Lol.
It sucks to have to delay the very first regular video, but I can't finish MCS at Owning a Pet in time for this Wednesday. You will get it Wednesday, Dec 2. I'm sorry. I know I suck. This was due to me missing vital needs for my video. Certain music and sound effects, not getting Photoshop until now, and lack of time because of my uncle's visit this week. It's the first regular vid since I returned and I don't want to half-ass it. The first video will be the Chief Show next Friday. It is the biggest Chief Show I've ever made, clocking in at over 6 1/2 minutes. I will be working on videos through this weekend and next week.
In other news, I will be probably texting a new style of subtitles (writing full sentences instead of fragments) in a test video soon. This goes against my subtitle standards but if you guys prefer it, I'll use it.
Also, I stopped those who had been already featured in Fanmail from sending in new fanmail. That rule is now null and void. The next episode of fanmail will feature fanmail that was originally supposed to be in the last episode, over six months ago. Some mail I probably won't find, but I'll try my best.
That's Update Friday! (Ok, I made the name up.)
Thanks,
Zomba

Nominate Me For Funniest Youtube Channel!
I went over to Mashable's Open Web Award website. They allow you to vote for anyone on the web in different categories. I added an HTML ad to the top of the page. By clicking that, you will go to the site and will be able to vote for me as Funniest Youtube Channel. I know calling my chances of winning a longshot, is an understatement, but I just feel cool being in the running (along with the other 600 channels up for nomination). Please vote if you would like. I don't know when voting ends, but you can vote once per day (not that I expect you to religiously go to Mashable's website everyday). Thanks guys. MCS at Owning a Pet (Not Gardening, I'm an idiot, I know) will be on November 26/27.

Master Chief Sucks at Returning
Enjoy.
This video basically explains my last blog post in Master Chief's words. I added a comical scene in the beginning of the vid, i figured you guys waited long enough to laugh.
Fanmail and Chief Show will again alternate Fridays, starting with a Chief Show six month recap on November 27, entitled "Lots of Dead People". (You can guess where this is going).
I asked everyone to write the angriest comment that they've been wanting to tell me while I was gone. Some of the comments so far, were absolutely hilarious, and alot were true...
You might have noticed the poll in the corner of the page. I'm allowing you guys to pick my next special. You can pick from Thanksgiving 2, Christmas 2, or the first ever New Year's Special. So far, voting's pretty close. For time constraints, you guys got until Saturday night to vote!
Don't forget to vote and write your angry comment!
Sincerely,
Zomba
P.S. This was supposed to be uploaded on Wednesday, but I got it done early.

I'm Back!!!
Enjoy.
OK, let's start from the beginning. In May 2009, my computer crashed as you know. I had it repaired. It worked well, but the website for my editing studio was down, stopping me from downloading it. In June, the laptop crashed again (of natural causes, lol, not a virus or anything). I got it back again. This time the guy who repaired it wiped my whole hard drive. Three scripts including MCS at Gardening were gone. Also, the virus blocker he installed stopped me from opening downloaded programs. My laptop was a vegetable.
During these troubling times, I drifted away from Youtube. I stopped watching videos and just enjoyed the Summer. It was good at first but I missed making the vids. I finally "woke up" and realized that I couldn't leave this way. I started planning my return, got a new laptop, and here I am.
You may have noticed the suspicious code in my last blog post and as the title of the "Not Great, But Not Bad News" video. (Sorry, it was horrible news afterall.) See if you figured out the code in my newest video (link above).
I thank all of my friends and subscribers who stuck with me through these last six months of viewing hell. Sorry guys, I can't apologize enough. I don't blame you guys if you're pissed off. If you want to say something mean to me, save it for next week, when I declare "open season" on my comments section. I'm releasing a video with a detailed explanation, basically this blog post in a video, next week.
Until then, thanks alot guys,
Zombamazomba
P.S. Go Yankees!!! Number 27!!!
