Sneak Peek of "the big one"! (Patreon)

That's right guys. Feast your eyes on the list so far! There's still a couple of checks I want to make but by and large this is the bulk of the soon to be live video of upcoming 2020 Kickstarters. I was sitting here thinking while setting up the script: "Why don't I share this with my Patrons for a bit of an early access view?" and I couldn't think of a reason not to :P

I wanted to also give you guys a quick update on me on a personal level. I've been fairly candid with you guys here about a few struggles recently and I just wanted to say that things are going great. There's nothing quite like the holiday spirit to get me jazzed up (I love Christmas time). Really though, I'm happy again with my home life, my work life, and on Youtube and it's a great feeling. I can tell you with almost certainty though that without you guys here I'm not sure I'd have continued with the channel.

While yes, of course the monetary support helps out. This is an expensive hobby and I still buy most of the board games I cover and all of the channel stuff. Next on the list is a new tripod, a second gorilla pod and a desk - I need one a few inches shorter length wise so I can move the couch in here and have my board games lining the entire wall behind me as I've run out of room and need another shelf...again.

In fact, those changes are what I'm waiting on right now to start filming the last milestone we hit where I show you what it takes to make a miniature painting video (and send the miniature out of course!)

Speaking of which, we're already 59% to the next milestone! This is a MASSIVE one as I really want to celebrate the momentum by sending out a few miniatures games to some of you - yeah, whole games! :D I figure I'll pick a few people out randomly and then just have you pick from a list.

Speaking of momentum - the channel is doing very well. I actually kind of regret how tied my emotions are with how well the channel is doing. I put in so much effort though that it just kind of hurts when stuff falls flat.

Heck, just earlier today (as I write this, so the 11th) I got a comment on my Zombicide Details video with someone saying that I didn't bother to do basic research (their own words).

Considering that was a 3rd video in a single week, a week where I'm putting in some extra time at my full time job as we just hit beta testing and are already architecting 2.0 of the project I'm involved with, and the fact that I started work on the video the hour I came home, ate dinner at my desk while I read through the entire campaign, watched the video, skimmed the rulebook and then wrote the script, recorded, captured images and edited those, picked some new music and then uploaded it - it was 2am when I was done.

It's just a huge bummer. It's so easy I think for people to not think of me as a person, or not realize that a 9 minute and 50 second video took hours to make. Heck, they probably didn't even realize that most channels would have padded out 10 more seconds to stick a 2nd ad in the video (10 minute minimum to insert ads) but I didn't bother because I didn't want padding.

I take pride in what I do and I take it seriously - and it's hugely rewarding when that's acknowledged.

Anyway, this perhaps turned into another rant - sorry about that! At least this time it wasn't about FFP or CMON :)

Alright, I gotta go finish this 2020 video ASAP and then move onto painting Fade - hopefully some early WIP shots next update for you guys!
