Looking good so far, still watching.
A bit to much profanity for my liking but that might just be me.

Video 1, 23:29 "You're always going to need to p for any stockpile that you want to build."

On a more serious note, I kinda like your style, but I almost feel that if I hadn't read some wiki or seen captnduck's, (2.5 hour,) tutorial I might have been a tad lost. (I have only seen number one of yours so far.) Though the swearing stresses where I need to listen, as far as I can tell. *grin*
