Hey guys.

I know there are not a bunch of you here, but I am very gateful that you have enjoyed my past streams. I enjoyed doing them very much and was extremely excited to play with you guys. I cannot thank you enough for joining me for my streams.

Anyway, I have not streamed (at all) for a long time. I do enjoy doing it and wish I could continue to do it. I haven't been streaming for a while because I have been busy in my real life at home. School is starting soon, I have been exercising daily, and overally trying to change my lifestyle to be more healty. Streaming simply doesn't fit into my current schedule. I'm sure if you even look when I am on line, it usually isn't for long or has been a while since I last played anything.

This coupled with Twitches new policies regarding muting in game music and sounds would render my streams impossible or very boring. While I never expect to get to the level to actually make money, content ID matching would prevent me from doing that. It could affect users now who have streams generate them revenue. I feel that I cannot use a website that will prevent its users from making money from their content that they have created.

Anyway, I had tons of fun streaming with you guys and I hope that you continue to enjoy other streamers on twitch. I will not be continuing to stream on Twitch unless their policies change.

So for now, feel free to chat with me on steam or ask to play something. I still enjoy playing and I hope I will get more time to play (alone or with others!) in the future.

Take it easy guys!

Hey guys,

I'm sure some of you noticed that I haven't been on for a few days. Well, thats because my computer crashed. I lost all game saves, server files, mods, streaming software, and my chat bot I was working on. Essentially, I had a fresh install of Windows 8.1. But, I am finally to the point where I can install games again and continue streaming. I should be back up in 2 days or less. As usual, I will tweet when I start streaming and I'm pretty sure all of you follow me on twitch so you will be able to see when I am live there. I won't have a ton of variety just becasue I cannot stream and download games at the same time (well, I can, but it makes the stream lag and low-res and I don't want that). I'd also like to try some different types of games like Dear Esther, Bastion, and some other story driven games. I think it would be a nice change of pace from open world sandbox and creative games. As always, I'm open to suggestions (provided the wallet agrees!).

So thanks for waiting, sorry for the trouble. I will be back soon!

Take it easy
