The War Plan, 2022 (sort of) (Patreon)

The time of pontification was passed.

A plan emerged and written on a piece of paper. The plan, as written on the piece of paper was as follows:

"Every month, experiment, 2022"

We start with the why. The why is to climb out of the 2-year plateau this channel has been parked upon. Nothing changes unless your behaviour changes. The gradual increase in subscribers has, thus far, offset the natural moving on of regular viewers and subscribers leading to a net gain of zero more monthly views when averaged out. Progressing the number upwards acts as fuel for enthusiasm, not that enthusiasm is lacking, but it'd be good to be going places.

Now we move to the what.

Keep the fundamentals in place - trains, management and a dab of adjacent games that may pique the interest of regular viewers. Electrosports on a regular basis. But then the good stuff - experiments and hero videos. One of each per month. I have an idea for an experimental series to release once or twice a month, wrapping the series at the end of the year. Alongside that will be vlogs, tutorials and insights... reviews? Maybe? More one and dones. 

We now speak of frequency.

Assuming no change in my weekly work schedule (this is not yet confirmed) it will be 7 videos per week and a Saturday live stream, with a backers series and vlog in the mix. Similar to now but with greater purpose and, dare I say it, a plan.

All the stuff you like now plus more stuff you may or may not like but that isn't the primary goal. The goal is to try stuff and see if it sticks. If it doesn't stick, it won't be for a lack of trying it.

There you go. A vague and specific plan for those who plan.

Now onto the next few weeks because the remainder of 2021 could be very erratic.

You will find, on this here channel, more Transport Fever, more Farming Simulator and a couple of final Highrise Moguls to round out the series. There may or may not be live streams and these will be subject to change at possibly very late notice. Regrettably this is unavoidable due to the real world. It is also possible that some radio silence occurs, but again that's a tricky one to predict. If and when I can predict something I will do.

That is all.

Tidy your room.
