Yeah, I go from 8:30 PM to 10:00 PM. Thanks for asking; I changed the OP so it was more clear.

Also, last week we all decided that for at least ten or fifteen minutes before 10:00 PM I'll stop gaming and just chat casually and play some VGM before closing up the stream. If I finish a game way before 10:00 PM, which is what happened with Sonic Spinball, this cooldown segment will be even longer. It's really chill and fun. Typically I'm going to trim off the afterparty before uploading to Twitch and YouTube, though, to keep that stuff special, secret, and safe.

Just wanted to say that you left me superimpressed, Key-Glyph. The stream was a lot of fun, very profesional (Good audio/layout), your commentary was fun and the chat culture you are promoting is fantastic. I wish the time difference weren't such a big issue because it was great.

Wish you the best! And guys, check it out, it's really worth it.

Aw, thanks Erik. I couldn't believe you were in there! Your determination to stay awake long enough to hang around was really sweet -- and also, your chat comments were hilarious. I've since been able to go back and read them and they cracked me up. I hope Spinball didn't give you teeth nightmares afterwards.

I'm tempted to play the new Genesis game Tanglewood that came out today - steam version.

I missed out on the game, but got to hear some sweet tunes and talk while I played Crash Bandicoot tonight haha.

I caught the end chunk of Contra then I had to make food. I'll try to be talkative next week.

I don't really talk much as if I'm watching Twitch it's generally thru Xbox on tv - not so easy to type.

I was there and had a lot of fun! I will say though, it's an odd feeling seeing one of y'all in a visage that's something other than our RB avatars, or hearing your voices instead of just reading text. It's like I'm gazing into another world, an AU version of Racketboy land where things are more than just text and static pictures!

Thanks! I did not intend to stay for so long, but I was really impressed with the stream and forced myself to stay a bit hehe

But yeah, I'll never see Sonic in the same way. Those Dr Eggmans. Oh god.

This week I've decided I need some bright and cheery zen gaming, and I also still can't get my NES controller case open, so we're doing Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine on the Genesis!

What's more, I'm going to do two streams on the same day. One will be at 7:30 PM UTC (which is 3:30 PM Eastern), especially for my international buddies who can't make the usual time. Join me then, or at the traditional time of 8:30 PM EDT... or both!

This is an experiment to see how well I can handle a double day. Depending on how it goes, I may try to do more of them, or I might split the UTC stream off for a different day on certain weeks. We shall see!
