An Easy Night And Fantasy Baseball

Good morning everyone, 

Last night's stream of Final Fantasy XIV was a nice casual night, I thought I had everything I needed for the best weapon I could get doing the standard Pandemonium raids, but that just means I need to do a few daily roulette as my Bard to get the rewards I need.


Beyond that I bounced around doing some Fishing, Botany, Lancer and Dancer leveling. I was rather surprised I was able to solo a few lower level fates as the Lancer. I think I figured some stuff out as Dancer, but also realized that some of its abilities leave it very vunerable for AOE attacks in dungeon boss battles.

For the raid last night we sent the fun over to Oldish22 who was also playing Final Fantasy XIV over at twitch.tv/oldish22!  

That's right I decided to try my hand at putting together a fantasy Baseball Team using Yahoo and here are the players I drafted, not the league only allows for 23 players. Based on 2021 Stats and 2022 Projects, I did put together the 2nd best possible team in the league.

Today's Fitness Boxing 2 daily workout featured Hip Shape Focus Combo, Straight Combo #2 and Sway Back Combo. Still managed to work in some Free Training as well where I set a new personal best on Difficult Challenge Como #3 on No Mercy, out of 704 actions, 696 were perfect with 8 being OK.

I saw the achievement list for Chrono Cross, and to be fair, it's not a bad list, it does require two and half play-throughs to recruit every character (because only one of  Pierre, Guile and Nikki can be recruited per play-throughs). The real trick is going to be getting all the endings and triple team moves. I have a feeling many of the achievements are doing to be very rare for folks to accomplish.

I have played some ranked Overwatch matches the last couple of evenings, just for the hell of it mostly. Have a feeling if I continue with that, I'll dedicate myself to playing Tank.

Managed to win two matches of Arena in Smite last night, one as Terra and the other as Medusa.

Also tried to to get the Course 1 to 6 achievement in Super Night Riders, I managed only to get through 9 laps... which was like 1/4th of the way to the 36 laps it features. Still my Xbox achievement streak is continued through today thanks to nabbing one of the Stage achievements.

Super Night Riders Achievements

  • Desert Stage Cleared: Cleared the desert stage.

For tonight's stream, well it's Friday, and the focus returns to Persona 5 Royal on the PlayStation 4, as we will focus on the prep for dealing with the final boss of the Bank Palace, and hoping I don't screw up any more things that are scheduled. I still need to hang out with Ryuji and do a Billiards set, so hopefully I'll see an opening in the guide to catch up on things I skipped.

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

Persona 4 Golden and other notes

We opened up Persona 4 Golden tonight, and the intro certainly reminded me of the one for Persona 4 Dancing All-Night... and of course I mad...
