But time flows like a river...and history repeats...

We started this as a multiplayer stream right before the pandemic—and we might return to that again—but for now, it's time for me to beat Secret of Mana in a single marathon sitting for my birthday! Will I make it?

Join us starting at 4pm CST and find out! Even if I can't, it'll be a fun party, so come hang out!

Gaming Into 2024

Hey everybody! Meant to make this post earlier in the day. Earlier in the week, even! But like every year, we're having a New Year's shindig, and we hope you can make it, even if only virtually. We'll be playing lots of games together; hopefully we can accommodate everyone!

The party starts tonight at 7pm ET. I hope to see you then!

Goodbye 2020!

 It's my 6² birthday, so it's time to party! Join us for multiplayer shenanigans as we ring in the new year with a virtual party!

We'll be starting the stream sometime in the next half-hour, and picking games to settle into when we have enough players. (I'll probably be derping around in Tabletop Simulator until then, so if you have that too...)

Hope to see you soon!

Another Year of Beasts

The end of the year is upon us! For the third year in a row, I'll be celebrating New Year's Eve, my birthday, with a marathon stream of one of my very favorite games, start to finish in one sitting. And I invite you all to join me, in my living room or on Twitch, for as long as you like! Conversing with y'all keeps me energized, and makes the stream more interesting, to boot.

I must be a fool or a masochist, because this year, I picked Final Fantasy VI. While I love the game and know it very well, it's longer than my previous marathon games by a good bit. As such, I'm relaxing my "no help" rule from the last two years, and am writing up some super-condensed notes to help me plan the whole thing out, and perhaps reach the end before 30 hours have passed.

For those who are curious or care about such things, I'll be playing the SNES version with the latest version of the TWU patch. Woolsey's original translation is kind of incredible for having been done in three months, but under such tight deadlines, there were, of course, things that slipped through. This version is still primarily based on that script, but gone over using the GBA version and Lina Darkstar's translation notes as reference. I'm excited to try this version because a few years ago, I attempted to undertake this very thing, myself. I got maybe halfway through my first draft, had to put the project on hold for a little while, and when I came back to it, I discovered that someone else had done it already. I hope it lives up to my expectations!

The party begins on Sunday, December 31st at 3pm ET, and will continue well into New Year's Day. Won't you join us?

Happy New Year from the Mushroom Kingdom

Another year draws to a close...and what a year it was. Time to end it on a high note with some concentrated nostalgia!

I'll be starting my marathon of Super Mario RPG at 2pm ET, and running until I finish, probably sometime tomorrow morning. Drop in and help us celebrate the end of the year, as well as my 2⁵th (nd?) birthday!

A New Holiday Tradition?

Like last year, more holidays than Thanksgiving are landing on a Thursday! And since last year's Thanksgiving stream of Secret of Evermore developed into something more across Christmas and New Year's Day (eventually becoming Thursday Throne), I think I'd like to do something similar this year.

This Thanksgiving, I marathoned a game: Illusion of Gaia. One that I knew would take me a while, but I was confident I could clear in a single sitting. For Christmas Eve, I'm upping the ante by bringing you two games (albeit shorter ones), back-to-back! From start-to-finish and start-to-finish, I'll be playing Sam & Max Hit the Road, followed by Maniac Mansion: Day of the Tentacle!

Then next week...I'm really going to challenge myself.

Tune in today at 4pm ET, and don't miss a moment of these brilliant comedy adventures!

Happy Thanksgiving!

So, I just had an insane idea.

I'm going to marathon Illusion of Gaia for Thanksgiving. I'm even going to try to 100% it without a guide. I know it's a little late in the day for this, but I don't have anywhere to be until Monday, so screw it. :P

I'll be starting as soon as I get everything set up, so tune in and get ready!

Happy Independence Day!

If you're not out enjoying the fireworks, why not join us as we fight an oppressive regime? That seems thematically appropriate.

Tune in tonight at 9pm ET as we continue Final Fantasy II!

A Holiday Tradition?

Thanksgiving isn't the only holiday landing on a Thursday this holiday season.

It'd be a shame to leave such a good game unfinished, so at 6pm ET, I'll continue streaming Secret of Evermore! Around 9, I'll add some...unusual holiday music to the mix. Gotta have a little proper Christmas spirit, right?

Merry Christmas, and I hope to see you then!

A Thanksgiving Tradition

20 years ago or so, I started a new game in Secret of Evermore on Thanksgiving. Ever since then, the game's made me think of my grandmother's house, good food, and time with family. It's very nostalgic for me.

Now, I'm going to share the tradition with you! Tune in now, I'll be playing until 9pm ET.

Then, at 9, I'll be sharing another Thanksgiving tradition on Radio PSI: Alice's Restaurant, by Arlo Guthrie. Join us then, as well!

I hope all of you Americans are having a wonderful holiday, and to everybody else, a good Thursday.
