Hey guys, hope you're having a great week so far. Gotta admit, it's been slow and shithouse. Since I'm in no way a fan of technology, I don't work on my own computer but I'm fortunate enough to have a SUPER AWESOME computer store in my area.

PC Repairs) They built my new PC this time last year to perfection. Every 12 months, you need to take it in, they renew their antivirus cheaper than if I just did it as well as give the entire thing a check over and service for very cheap. I'd also been having a few issues with it the past few months so I took it in the day before, that 12 months was met...

TURNS OUT my 1TB HDD was failing. Normally they ring me up and complain "oh, you've only got X amount of storage left" but instead, the guy told me the HDD was running at 61% health... whatever that means. He said it could be caused with power cutting from the machine or that it could be an issue in production, he's not really sure (though that second one would explain why I was having trouble with it initially). And because it was having trouble, could be the reason a lot of my external drives full of gameplay wouldn't connect sometimes and why I was getting all these crashes earlier in the year. Well because I took it into get serviced a day before 12 months had passed, everything was still under warranty so they totally replaced the drive and cloned all my shit over for me saving a nice chunk of change. Made my fucking week!

The Downside) Due to the extra work they put into it, my computer was in the store 2 days longer than it should have been meaning I haven't been able to work on anything in the meantime... WHICH FUCKING SUCKS! I had a really good production line rhythm going with Hawktober prep and all that which has since gone but oh well, what can a person do? I'm just glad I've got the thing back because I was completely off the grid without it. My backup PC is worthless, I was watching YouTube through my Xbox 360, majority of my TV setup goes through stuff that needs a PC so I was limited to my NES until I could be bothered going behind the TV and building a temporary setup. It sucks and I've lost some time but now I'm keen to get back on the board and write these Tony Hawk episodes!

Closing Thoughts) When I woke up this morning, I had an email from YouTube telling me the Enter the Dragonfly video is from now on Age Restricted after a human manually reviewed it. I'm not sure if someone flagged it or if it was just on YouTube's backlog, either way I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner. It's just a shame though as that video still draws a crowd old and new, and despite being over 3 years old (April 28th, 2015 it was uploaded) it's remained on my Top 10 Highest Earning Videos that entire time. Really is part of the foundation what he have now was built on, so I'm sad to see it finally "die."

I think it makes my compromise 100th Episode of the Reignited Trilogy that much more special, as that entire Spyro series is really what the channel was built on in it's strongest days. Interesting how things like that come around. But anyway, I'm going to get back into some Tony Hawk this week and try to get back on schedule. Don't expect a video next week, I didn't have anything planned to begin with for the record. As soon as all this prep is done, I'm planning to have a Top 10, followed with those two discussion episodes through August into September and then you know the rest! Thank you so much for reading and as always, I hope you have a great fucking day. Cheers guys! :D

Your Enter the Dragonfly video got age restricted? Must be all the fucks that spouted out your mouth. People had no fucks to give, but you had loads of fucks to give in that review. LOL

Yeah that's why, I can understand the reasoning but that doesn't mean I have to fucking like it! ;)

You're doing the Reignited Trilogy for your 100th episode? That's pretty cool. I'm still waiting for Caddy to review the original trilogy. Too bad that's not going to happen until he gets 1 million subs. With the amount of subs he's getting at this point, that will take years.

I'm looking forward to Hawktober this year. I REALLY enjoyed the one you did last year. I wonder what Tony Hawk games you'll be looking at this Hawktober. Guess I'll find out when that time comes. :)

Honestly pre-built computers cheap out on hard drives and power supplies. Like most crappy hard drives fail within a year. But in all honesty a good hard drive at 1 tb is like 30-50 USD. Like Western Digital are a very reliable brand. I'm not saying you have to buy another, because it could be defective. I've had a few defective hard drives over time so. Basically the most common thing to cause them to fail is the read/write mechanism breaks. Because a hard drive is literally a very high density metal disc spinning at 5400 rpm the bare minimum. Most are now 7200rpm. So it's not a matter of if a hard drive will fail, but when. Some last 10 years plus lol.

I had my machine custom built and while I'm not the most knowledgeable on parts, I have friends who are and they revised my item list before I had it built. So it's all top quality shit. I think I may have just been unlucky and got one slightly defective due to productions issues. Or maybe it got damaged throughout the year, hard to tell.
