Mystery Heroes and A Mostly Stable Stream

Good afternoon everyone, 

So update on the Xfinity situation, the Senior Tech gave me an update that they were able to capture a system issues on the outside and they contacted a maintenance supervisor to send out a line tech, I was waiting for an update, but the tool they were using to monitor my connection was under maintenance so he could not see any logs from the tech to get an idea of what was done. I logged into the catway to see a number of things about the eRouter being administrativley disabled then enabled as Dual Stack, plus Missing Required Options 82 and 24. At least I'm being kept up to date on this.

Now last night's stream did see one instance of the stream being held up, and several minor instances of frame drops of Overwatch itself indicating a weak connection at times. That said, we had fun, we played a mix of Quick Play and Mystery Heroes. We were joined by PandaSweet for a good portion of the night which is always a treat! I picked up two plays of the game as Dva using her new skin. Other characters used were Moira, Mei, Torb and several others.

On a side note, a bit disappointed that this turn of the ReMix event does not give us any PVE options like the first two volumes of the ReMix. What we'll see on Sundays are Winter Brawls and different Lunar Jump variants on some match types.

For the raid we dropped in on Flint_Locke who was playing Higurashi no Naku Koro ni: Chapter 8 - Matsuribayashi over at twitch.tv/flint_locke! Flint is a very talented singer and does some Dungeons & Dragon streams every now and then.  

Today's Fitness Boxing 2 daily workout featured Double Combo #1, Defensive Combo #1 and Uppercut Combo #2 for 28 minutes.

Finished the commission request for a WWE story yesterday afternoon, and got another one based around Avatar The Last Airbender. I'm not too familiar with that show, in fact I've only ever played the Legend of Korra video game a couple of years ago! So some research will be involved!. 

What did the left butt cheek say to the right butt cheek? "You crack me up!"

What do you call someone who points out the obvious? Someone who points out the obvious.

My main Fantasy Baseball team that I have been directly trying to keep tabs on is sitting in 4th place in the its league, while my secondary team is sitting in 3rd. If all goes right, both teams could hit the playoffs.

For tonight's stream we're playing Mass Effect 3, with the focus being on the Quarian and Geth part of the story, which should be pretty straight forward! Also last night I put in quite a bit of time playing the Multiplayer mode, getting a Volus and Turian to level 20... and I learned the hard way that Turians can't roll. I'm only 1700 kills to the Veteran achievement, which we should put a fair dent into tonight... maybe... hopefully lol/

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