Feels cool. It was a bit surreal when it originally happened because I didn't campaign hardcore for it to happen. A based viewer of mine from 2012, WereGoose, submitted my face in the -- brace for this, gonna feel old typing this out -- "Suggest Global Emotes for TwitchTV" forum thread (back when there was a dedicated Twitch Forum, now it's the Twitch Blog).
Like 4 days later, a few Twitch Cops were lurking in my chat (which was a big deal because I was way smaller back then, like <300 viewer average), saw me going extra apeshit with the swag (because they were there) and asked "why is he trying so hard?"
The rest is history.
To be honest, I always find it interesting when new viewers come to my stream to discover -I'm- the TriHard face guy. Love finding out what context my face is used for external to the speedrunning/FGC channels on Twitch.
inb4 it's all racism. TriHard = EBT Cards Accepted For Turbo (no space)
Playing again after Wooly World. I want to introduce Yoshi's Island to everyone once they care about Yoshi. With Wooly World, Yoshi will be relevant to new games again, not some 20 year old relic.
Gradual release to relevance of my interests is best.
Don't worry, SMM marathons will ease up in about 2 weeks~
Apologies, forgot to Twitch PM it! Sent it on twitter:

(It's a bit outdated w/ the ideas of how I want to conduct chat tho. Check last ask.fm answer for that @

I agree. Was testing ideas last week & am doing a new system. I'll detail it in this week's newsletter. But here's the recap:
- Originally, dynamic slow mode (+15sec per 1k people present; caps at 120sec slow @ 8k), with toggled sub mode every 20min for 5min at 10k+
^ This controls chat, but I know for poverty brothers it super sucks. Also somewhat gives paywall to communicate intimately. ;_;
Now, I'm going to go for this idea:
- 5-10sec slow mode always, with multiple anti-spam bots present. Mods utilize a 1-strike or 3-strike system. So if accidental, or being a shit, you'll get a purge warning, then 10min, then perma.
Logistics still being ironed out, but I promise it's all effort to make chat better. Also going to review all the PM request bans soon to undo some of the fraud bops. ;)
I'm still learning myself! I don't think I'm at a point where I can talk -daily- about fitness and not get repetitive or run out of topics.
It's fun addressing the context some may not see in affecting their motivation, but I mostly have like 5-10 big tips for staying motivated with fitness.
I -may- do YT videos about it eventually, but for now, I need to get this 6-pack to be a certified douchebag first. :-D
No. Yoshi is considerably cult status. The Yoshi series is recognized by most as one of the greatest games of all time⁽¹⁾, but its sales are rarely an indication that it justifies having a Mario Maker (GBA port sold less than SMB3, SMW, and even Mario 2 USA's GBA port⁽²⁾).
To be totally honest, I don't think any of the additions made to Yoshi games since the original contribute to making it better, so having that "variable art styles w/ respective physics" is a bad idea and would fail at a full-game spectrum⁽³⁾.

I dislike the physics, lack of combo follow-ups & slowness of the game compared to SSBM and Project M.
If I can find my copy⁽¹⁾, I'd like to try out Ryu and recap what I did bad during Nintendo World Championships⁽²⁾ though. ;_;

I semi-categorized all my YouTube uploads informally. Here's a loose defining of them:
• A Nigga Moment™ ⁽¹⁾⁽²⁾⁽³⁾ - classic rude exchange between me and my roommmates on-stream (usually during a serious speedrun attempt). Often resembling the original Nigga Moment skit from The Boondocks⁽⁴⁾. Generally, A Nigga Moment can't only involve me, must involve a 2nd person, else it's likely Real Nigga Shit rant instead.

• Real Nigga Shit™ ⁽¹⁾⁽²⁾ - a new series, where I briefly monologue about a topic I'm passionate about, usually condescending towards the negative aspects of the subject. I'll sometimes use bite-size snippets from longer #RealTalks, if suitable.

• #RealTalk - Used to be when I'd answer chat questions after a Yoshi speedrun⁽¹⁾, but has modernized into when I do an extended rant about a topic⁽²⁾⁽³⁾. You'll know it's a #RealTalk when I have notes prepared to keep a monologue focused with a conclusion⁽³⁾, rather then open to audience interaction.

My bad. I kept forgetting to reply at the gym like 10 times.
You have my full permission! :)
I won't ever put restriction on sharing my stuff. Go crazy! <3
I never felt I was importnat enough to have a business email, but I realized I would've totally missed your inquiry if you hadn't sent an ask.fm too.
Ty, I'll reply back shortly, and now I made one! I'll add it to my twitter description soon.
Should be live in 2hr, so Euro-ish today. Tomorrow I don't have gym, so should actually be live at a Euro-time! It's slowly coming back together~
