Today's Notes 2/15/21

Good afternoon everybody,

Yup slept in today, because why not... but I've been up since 12:30 PM EST, part of why I was up late was because I was working on a new commissioned fan fiction project, kind of a unique cross-over. If you know where I post such things, you'll know where to find it when it's finished.

Anyway last night's stream of Overwatch was productive in that we got the nine wins needed for this week's Lunar New Year Rewards, a good portion of them came via the Capture The Flag Blitz mode. Earned one play of the game as Moira in a match where I had to spend more time playing defense than I would've liked because there was no other healers on the team. Let's be straight up, when it comes to Capture The Flag, the must needed heroes on a team are Lucio, Moira & Symmetra... because Lucio can speed boost anyone who has the flag back to base, Moira can flex from heal to damage, and Symmetra can set teleporters up from the re-spawn to the base, cutting down on travel time and set turrets up to make things a night mare either defensively or offensively for the other team.

Since it is Monday, we did a Bonus stream today of Fitness Boxing 2: Rhythm and Exercise, it went about 47 minutes (56 when one counts the stretching), and for whatever reason throwing straights were a bit of a problem today, I expected some issues to come from side stepping, but it always irks me when it comes from a punch, particularly when I'm streaming the session and I can see that the punch was clearly thrown!

Popped into Animal Crossing New Horizons, and finally saw what the Festival Event was, as it's a strong reference to a Mardi Gras like celebration, where all the island residents are dancing, there are feather for you to catch, and if you turn them into the special visitor to the island (Pave) you'll be rewarded with different items related to the Festival Event. It was pretty cool, and Pave's dialog was certainly a blast to read. Now of course I have to say Hopper was the best dancer out of my island residents, then again, anyone short and chubby is a good dancer (which of course means I dance as good as I sing, which means I'm awesome! LOL!)

Also did a run of Super Mario Bros 35, which lasted about 12 minutes, and managed to pull off a 3rd place finish. We might end up dedicating a full night to it to get to level 100 before the Nintendo closes the game down next month. We'll see how things shake out for that.

Tonight we'll be back to Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix, as we are in the later stages of the game. We'll be picking up at The Coliseum and going after the Hades Cup, then we got things to do in Agrabah, Halloween Town, The Pride Lands, Space Paranoids, Hallow Bastion, Twilight Town and then finally the World That Never Was. Most of these are direct boss battle encounters, so things go right, we fight finish the game tonight. We'll see how that goes.

And on that note we'll see you later over on twitch.tv/fredcasden!
