un-planning today's stream. I think my next stream is just going to be a guerilla stream announced about an hour before when it happens. I'm really struggling with the motivation to open OBS and do something with it right now.
Maybe it'll be better to wait until my sleep schedule shifts to normal.
Here's what I think is going to happen tomorrow:
I'm either going to pick A or B. A is stream before I sleep, B is stream after I sleep. Which I choose will be dependent on whether I think A is going to be too early or B is too late.
Either way, it'll be gacha maintenance to ease back into it.
Good news: The meeting went really well.
Less good news: my sleep schedule is royally screwed right now so actually streaming on thursday might be a challenge. If I commit it's probably going to be in the morning/afternoon.
Hello internet, it's been a while.
As I said in my last post, I did end up being largely too busy for streaming for the month of march.
I'd like to resume streaming on April 2nd, but there's a chance my mental state by then could be affected by a meeting or two I'll be having the days prior.
I hate to keep doing this, but timing is poor again.
There's a work thing I can't talk about that I must hunker down on. Tuesday my work set a timeline for something that I need to finish in two weeks. I don't think I can let myself stream 'till it's done and submitted.
This may last 'till April.
Feeling a lot better after a walk today. I should be able to actually stream, but I'm going to do it at the end of the week.
THURS: Fantasy Maiden Wars (2pm)
SAT: Labyrinth of Touhou Tri (4pm)
The world can't stop throwing things at me this week, huh.
I received distressing news this morning. No stream today.
Pushing that stream to Friday.
I mentioned on Sunday that my Wednesday stream time was going to be an experiment; Well, that experiment was whether or not I could reasonably do a stream on a day where I have a strict cutoff time.
Well, I've come to realize that Fantasy Maiden Wars is not a game that lends well to a strict cutoff.
Didn't get as much sleep as I'd like but I should be able to make today's stream time. Continuing Labyrinth of Touhou Tri at 12pm PST today.
If both go well, I'll see about Archipelago day on Friday. There's a specific bit of water-testing I'm doing for Wednesday in particular.
I've managed to shift my sleep enough that I'd like to try a couple streams this week starting at noon (12pm PST).
MON: Labyrinth of Touhou Tri
WED: Fantasy Maiden Wars
I have changed my mind once again.
For transparency, the reason for times and schedules getting shifted off is because of a sleep disorder of some stripe.
I've just decided to fully transition into Adjust Schedule mode.
No streams until I'm regularly awake around afternoons and evenings again.
I missed my stream time today because I failed to wake up in time, so I'm going to shuffle my schedule around to meet my needs. If I want to keep streaming regularly, I'm going to have to both stream much later and also probably start doing morning streams for a while.
Live in 1 hour (6:30pst):
It's time for another touhou fangame to get added to the schedule: I already streamed it once, but now that it's fully out, we're starting from the top! It's Labyrinth of Touhou Tri!

Going live very soon with the continuation of my solo archipelago multiworld. Going to be starting with some factory laying in Endfield though.

Schedule Change:
Due to work updates, I'm moving Archipelago day to thursday and Labyrinth of Touhou Tri day to saturday.
A title page for Fantasy Maiden Wars -Dream of the Stray Dreamer- The image depicts a scene of a horizon at a high angle, with a mountain rising at the right edge of the screen and a forest to the left. The sun is cresting above the distant horizon, the light of which is mainly cross-shaped. The game's title and subtitle sit in the bottom third of the screen. Chibi versions of the following characters from Touhou Project are flying within the upper two thirds in a circle: Marisa Kirisame, Koishi Komeiji, Satori Komeiju, Youmu Konpaku, Yuyuko, Hijiri Byakuren, Mystia Lorelei, Aya Shameimaru, and Mima. Additionally, the Palanquin Ship from Undefined Fantastic Object is floating up there as well in the background. There are characters in the full version of this image not visible in this particular cropping of the image which I will list now: Reimu Hakurei, Sanae Kochiya, Yukari Yakumo, Remilia Scarlet, Flandre Scarlet, Yuuka Kazami, Sakuya Izayoi, Tenshi Hinananwi, Wriggle Nightbug.

Though I've put the misadventures of masaki andoh to rest for now, I have not forgotten why I streamed a super robot wars game in the first place...
Fantasy Maiden Wars: Dream of the Stray Dreamer starts today.

Weekly Schedule:
I remembered yesterday that I wanted to pull back a little on Abiotic Factor, so I'm going to be rotating it instead. Therefore:
[DATES/TIMES ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE]
MON: Fantasy Maiden Wars
TUES: Archipelago Day
FRI: Labyrinth of Touhou Tri
Live in 1 Hour:
Solo Archipelago multiworld! I'm playing Pokemon Crystal and Metroid Prime! Everything's set up and working, so all that's left is go time.

Alright, Today's Archipelago day.
I've decided I need to do a little more testing before I go all out with my planned shenaniganry, so I've opted instead for my solo archipelago adventure to be 2 games:
Metroid Prime
Pokemon Crystal
Catch me at 7 PST for tossing beams and HMs around.
I have picked out most of my games for my solo archipelago endeavors starting on Friday. I'm going to be playing 4 or 5, haven't decided yet. Don't worry too much about the quantity of games, though, as 3 of them are in theory fairly short and don't have a lot of checks to them.
My attempts to stream battlefront 2 continue to be cursed. At least my audio balance didn't suck this time?
I woke up for a doctor's appointment, then fell right back asleep immediately after, so I missed my appointed stream time. But that's fine, since I wanted to restructure the week's schedule anyway!
It's actually looking like this:
MON: Abiotic Factor 6:30pm
TUES: SWBFII classic 7pm
FRI: Archipelago?
I've decided I'm not going to be streaming Endfield after all. I want to enjoy it with my dear friends more.
That being said, here's my projected streaming schedule for the week:
MON: Abiotic Factor 5PM
THURS: Solo Archipelago Multiworld [games tbd]
FRI: Star Wars Battlefront 2 Classic redux
I'll get my schedule figured out tomorrow.
I don't know who felt like reading through all this, but if you did, thanks for doing so.
Thanks to people I have been watching lately, I've been getting an urge to play a randomizer or an archipelago multiworld of something, so I'll probably add that to the list. I also think I want to redo my stream of Star Wars Battlefront 2 (classic) because the audio-balance made it unwatchable.
As far as what to stream, I'm going to end up dropping the super robot wars gaiden series. It's been too long and I've definitely ran out of steam on that. I'll continue Abiotic Factor, though I may try to slow down on that because I don't want to get ahead of my co-op with friends progress.
I know I still want to stream, so I'm going to keep streaming. The hope is that streaming will help me get better at talking, not worse like it feels like has been happening.
