This official rust server didn't know i existed...

Willjum sits about ten thousand subscribers short of two million. That is a small gap for a channel built on a single game, and his one new video this week showed why the channel got this far.

"This official rust server didn't know i existed..." went up on September 27. The title promises the kind of story his channel is known for: a player moving through Rust, Facepunch's survival game, apparently unnoticed by everyone else on the server. It drew close to 600,000 views on its first day and was nearing a million by its third.

The older uploads are still moving too, only more gently. "How I outlasted an entire civilisation in Vanilla Rust... ft Aloneintokyo", ten days old, and the first day of "A duo Odyssey", now more than a month old and past a million and a half views, each still draw a steady trickle.

Among the shooter and battle-royale channels around him, TGG is having the big stretch, running well above its usual pace. DarkViperAU, More Lachlan and Wyful Shorts are drawing fewer views than they normally do.
