Xfinity Update and Other Stuff

Good morning everyone,

Well yesterday, I lost two hours of work due to internet issues but it certainly appeared to be related to an actual outage that should've been repaired by 12:50 Eastern... and my service was down till about 2 PM... but there was still intermittent issues that plagued when I was working, not to mention the stream itself. Considering Xfinity sent a text at 6:50 PM saying things were fixed, I was not expecting to have major breaks in the stream... things got so bad I actually got kicked from matches of Fall Guys, which we lead off with.

Now I did contact Xfinity during the stream, using the ticket number I was given from Executive Customer Relations to hopefully be able to get my issues addressed, I ended up speaking to generic people in the Philippines!  So what I ended up doing was emailing the FCC back with another screenshot of the upstream power levels, along with the email I got from Xfinity and my reply to them asking for a callback at a specific time. And considering calling the person at the Executive Customer Relations division directly only gets me an voice mail... I'm not expecting much.

Of course what I should have expected was for my internet service to have yet another outage again this morning which was not ideal. In fact as I'm writing this, the connection just came back up. I also finally got a call back from Executive Customer Relations team to explain everything to them directly. All they said was they were going to speak to their technical team regarding this to try and see what's going on.

So with that said, the stream opened with Fall Guys and we were so close to actually winning a solo show... but I made a mistake by diving when I should have walked. After the noted calls with Xfinity, I played some Smite an we were joined by SF Bumblebee for several matches. I stuck with playing Athena and Kukulkan since I had quests associated with playing as  Greek and Mayan gods

Big thanks to LvStrkr for renewing their sub to the channel for the 40th month in a row! Always awesome to note the major milestones.

Started work on the next commission fic request based around WWE... think I have a good idea of how to make it work.
