Wind Down (Blog) (Patreon)

Yo, totally slipped my mind to do this yesterday. I really need to get that checked out because I seem to legit have some kind of memory problem. I really wish I was kidding but I'm 100% serious on that! Don't know why, yesterday just did not work in my favor for me which is scary; got a lot of stuff I still need to get done in a short period of time this month.

The Top 10) Next week's Top 10 is running behind schedule due to a combination of things: Burnout from Hawktober, a day trip to the beach (hey, I think I earned it) and combating weather. I was meant to shoot it last night outdoors but it decided to rain like a bitch so, I've already lost a day of editing on that. It should be up for Early Access still, just gotta get stuck in and get it done.

Game Testing) Because it was all I could think about, I decided to take the time and shoot an episode of some game testing this week. It's been such a long time so I was a little rusty in my opinion. Haven't begun editing it yet but you can normally feel how things are going in the moment. Will still get a video out of it though, no worries there.

Halloween Review) Between the Top 10 and the review, I've got a week without time to really do much. So I'll be throwing up the Tony Hawktober Outtakes in between just so we've still got at least one video each week. I can whip that together without losing time on working on this video. In a perfect world, I'd have already started writing the script but that hasn't happened yet unfortunately. I think I really took for granted how simple October would be after this channel special, that my extreme preparation for that has led to no preparation for actual Halloween stuff, despite it being the only thing I could think about during the editing of TH. Again, it will certainly get done, I've got some ideas and such but I'm honestly looking at toning things down back into some more "normal" for lack of a better term, normal videos to see the year out. I love the big projects but I don't think there is anything wrong with some more straightforward stuff in there too. I mean... what am I gonna dress up as a Skylander and travel to the world of Skylands? I don't think so.

So yeah, with only 2 weeks before I have to fly to Melbourne for PAX Australia, I've got to get 3 videos done... fuck. One thing I've come to realize lately is that I've actually got SO MUCH SHIT planned that isn't all going to fit into this year: After today, we've got 2 more Tony Hawk Reviews, a Halloween Review, 3 Skylanders videos and a Christmas Special in December. That's 7 more reviews in 3 months!

Then there are the 4 game testing episodes in November, I'll hopefully have some kind of PAX Vlog thing like last year and more importantly, I've got a discussion topic I'm determined to talk about this year. I've also got room stuff to do, shelf stuff and finally some kind of new setup video so... safe to say, things are really going to flood out right at the ass end of 2017. Let's just hope I can keep on top of it, but until then, thanks for reading and I hope you have a great fucking day. Cheers!
