Damn I never knew he was ill... That's terrible news.
I actually did cry quite a bit yesterday, shed quite a few tears even though I usually don't cry. RIP Colin, I'll never forget you.
Goddamnit, RIP Kitty.
Your videos will always be some of my favorites
I didn't really like the comedy stuff he did, but the first person stuff was cool as fuck. I tried to figure that one out for months to no avail. Clever guy.
God, I can't believe the Leukemia came back three times.
Rest in peace.
[QUOTE=Holt!;47012733]Damn, that's rough.
His and DasBoSchitt's videos conviced me to buy Garrysmod many years ago.[/QUOTE]
I was actually in a Skype call with one of his friends last night about it, The way he worded Brandon's/RunFromTheMinge's reaction, it made him sound suicidal. Turns out there was actually a fight between Kitty0706 and Dasboschitt about a week earlier involving intellectual property, DasBoSchitt must feel fucking horrible after figuring that out.

Can't believe he fought it off twice and even figured out the beauty of life on the way. The aforementioned [URL="http://dakat0706.tumblr.com/post/63621891189/words-of-wisdom-from-an-animator-with-leukemia"]blog post[/URL] has some insanely good advice toward the end. I strongly recommend reading the rest.

What a shame to see him go, i feared this day would arrive.
Rest in peace
DasBoSchitt tweeted that he wants to make a tribute when he gets back from wherever he is.
Fuck That's Horrible Elliot goes to school was hilarious it's a shame he died RIP
meant to post this last night but I actually hope this means I'll see that thumbnail less, youtube needs to get better at not recommending stuff that much

why?
Ughhh this is a huge punch in the gut.
Kitty was pretty much the first person to introduce me to gmod with his videos.
If not for him I wouldn't even be a part of this community.
Thank you Colin, we'll all miss you so dearly
going to rewatch all his videos one last time
he introduced me to several new bands and a whole wave of gmod machinima videos
see ya kitty, you'll be missed
Well, definitely didn't expect this. Damn, Leukemia took Edd from Eddsworld back in 2012 and now Colin? Fucking hell.
oh my god I saw a thread on /v/ but I didn't want to believe it
rip kitty ;_;
I hope cancer gets cancer and dies.
Rest in peace you magnificent bastard. ;_;
I'm done, too many good people die from cancer. Where do I send my money in for research?

That blog post just cheered me up a shit load holy fuck.
You never really think about the person behind the videos when you watch other people's Gmod animations, but Elliot was different. He stood out in the crowd. Always coming up with new ideas and never failing to bring the laughs in. I actually shed a tear when reading the news. He just didn't deserve this.
Hope he's in a better place now...
I had no idea he had cancer, what a shame.

[U][I][B]You put a smile on people's faces,
You brighten people's day,
You inspire a lot of people,
You may have lost your battle,
But you've still won the hearts of many.
Have a good long sleep, Sir Elliot.
We hope to wake up to another adventure with you, someday.
Rest in peace, Colin Wyckoff. Thank you for all the years of inspiration and laughter.[/B][/I][/U]

Sure as fuck won my heart, I've been subscribed to the guy for 6 years straight, reading this genuinely made me shed a few tears.
he was too young.
His riddick videos were the driving factor behind me picking the game up on GOG. I'm gonna miss that magnificent bastard
Damn he got me into gmod in the first place
I feel horrible. How painful the world can be. How close death can come, even when you are seperated with great distance. The Internet has feelings too. :..(
Holy shit. :(
Tea Time with Dr. Breen is still like my favorite gmod video ever. His videos used to crack me up.
This is terrible, he had some serious passion for his work and such a bright attitude. Thing I should mention is that his hilarious playthrough video of "Scientist Slaughterhouse: Mod Messup #1: WTF"
[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iLlUeb6S3YE[/media]
is what actually got me into HL1/GoldSrc modding/custom animations; I started to make an expansion of that mod originally with additional animations, but later turned into GoldSrc movies. All my youtube movie work can pretty much be traced back to this playthrough video of his.
Very sad day.
