Hi, everyone. Joe Schmoe here. And I've managed to take this game up again after not being able to for years (account issues). I first started this game back in the mid-2000s somewhere, and played for about 6 years, but got burnt out and went to play World of Warcraft (I think).

But fast forwarding to today, I'm a Twitch streamer who streams this game, and I'll be posting stream re-caps/blog posts on here. But I think it would be important to let you all know what kind of streamer I am/what to expect:

• I usually play vinyl records when I stream, as in-game music/sound effects gets repetitious after a while, and having never grown up listening to vinyl - I grew up listening to cassettes - I figured "Why not?". And my tastes run the gamut, from folk music and jazz, to rock and metal, and some avant-garde/experimental as well, so one should keep an open mind. I've played some real doozies. I'll also play other stuff as well on my nights off (usually Joe Rogan Podcasts) as well, so I'm not playing my whole collection in one session.

• I eat/drink when streaming. Apparently it's a streamer taboo, but my lifestyle requires it. I do a sorta-kinda Warrior's Diet (one big meal per day, rather than several smaller ones), especially on my nights off when I fast, as it's more effective when there's fewer interruptions. And I stream every day, even on work nights, so I don't have time to set aside for just eating. I basically have to kill 2 birds with one stone.

• I also play Melvor (aka Runescape) Idle at the same time as well. In fact, this game is what got me back into OSRS! One of my Twitch regulars, named
white_wimmin
, suggested I try this game. And the rest is history. So if I'm talking about say, woodcutting, when I'm actually not woodcutting, that's why. ;)

Well, that's all I can think of at the moment. Hope to be here a long time. Take care, and feel free to drop by.

Been pretty gluttonous today, loving me some "mini-cinnis", eating about a whole package and a half, causing me to gain 2 pounds (147# now) and my gut going up a half an inch (33.5in). That made the fast I did the day before when I called in sick totally moot.



My session ( https://www.twitch.tv/videos/637623145 ) was up and down today. I did manage to get level 30 in fletching, and can now make steel arrows. Got my crafting to at least level 22 too, so I can now, once I get my magic level up, make Games Necklaces. Finally, a teleport of some kind! But unfortunately I'm almost out of feathers, so had to do lots of pickpocketing and chicken-killing to get all the feathers I needed. I'm also almost out of food (trout/salmon) as well, so I had to get even more feathers for that, which is what I'll probably be doing tomorrow as well. I might also start on my runecrafting campaign. We'll see come tomorrow.

And here's all the progress I made:



And the LP records I played this time around were:

Kraftwerk - Ralf & Florian
Joe Walsh - The Smoker You Drink, The Player You get
Redd Foxx - Laff Your Ass Off
Jimi Hendrix - Are You Experienced?
Joni Mitchell - Court & Spark

Okey dokey, time to get ready for work. Take care, everybody. Seeeee y'all on the flipside. ;)

I don't remember much about today's session, as I made the mistake of laying down and doing other stuff before even starting on this post, so details are a bit sketchy.

Pretty busy session today ( https://www.twitch.tv/videos/638499333 ), and it was mostly mining rune essence and Varrock's rooftop agility course running. I managed to make all the steel arrows I needed to make, as well as all of my ranged class's gear (I think). So I ended up doing some cow & chicken killing for a while. And I also managed to get 1500 rune essence, enough for some castings of Wind Strike and (eventually) Fire Strike. So I'll probably work on that next session.

And I got this far, statwise:



The licorice discs I spun this evening were:

Songs & More Songs - Tom Lehrer
Chicago Transit Authority (aka Chicago) - Self-Titled Debut
Rush - 2112

After those, I went ahead and threw on some vaporwave - this time, Glaciære's Water Slide album -, not wanting to blow through my whole record collection in one session, since I was going to be on a while. After that, wanting to watch some Minneapolis, MN riots (morbid, I know) I accidentally showed a protest march instead. Whoops! So I switched over to the Joe Rogan Podcast, this time with Tony Hawk.

Aaaaand that'll do 'er for this session. Take care, peeps. And have yourselves a wonderful night/day ;)

Broke my fast about 12 hours in *sigh*. I had to buy some more pulled chicken - my new delicacy - after running out today. And they sell tuna sliders, which I always get when I'm at that particular store, since I love tuna so much. Guess I'll just have to try for a full 22-hour fast tomorrow. But nevertheless, I still lost 3 pounds (back to 145 again lol) and my gut went down to 33.25". Got lucky this time. :O

Oh, and I know I mention fasting a lot in these posts. But it's something I consider very important to me, something I wish I'd have done years ago. But for those that are interested, I go into more detail about why I took it up here: https://youtu.be/0bMwXphp5Qk

Played my session ( https://www.twitch.tv/collections/dmxlyc3sFBbYng ) during a thunderstorm today. Luckily my apartment didn't black out. :O

But I started by killing imps (looking for beads for the Imp Catcher quest & a mind talisman) while leveling firemaking. I got 3 out of the 4 beads I needed before having to break off and do some runecrafting. I crafted about 1k mind runes and 200 earth runes (fire talismans are too out of my reach, level-wise), and eventually got my runecrafting to level 20, and I'll probably do more earth runecrafting tomorrow. And I finished out the session by doing - surprise! - cow & chicken killing.

And I got this far, statwise:



And here's the records I played this evening:

Ween - God Ween Satan
The Stooges - Funhouse
Pink Floyd - Obscured by Clouds
Herbie Hancock - Head Hunters

And after those, I did another Vaprowave album. This time, it was another Glaciære album, called Pool Water Blue. And then I did another SNES music playlist as well.

Okay, time to call it a night. Take care, everybody. And see you all next time. ;)

Okay, here's today's posting, again using Blogger (probably not the best post. Still trying to figure out the color schemes and stuff, they're not being very cooperative with me :@ ):
