Twitch.tv/Vespher - 2016-10-17 Patch Notes

Hey guys! Took a day off last night after SM64 120 and used the opportunity to get a bunch of stream maintanence done. Like always, I do my best to be as transparent as possible with everything. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to let me know!

- Phorcebot Changes:
	- Russian Roulette
		- Cooldown changed from 10 Minutes to 15 Minutes

	- Nagito
		- Timeout duration changed from 10 Minutes to 5 Minutes

	- Back end changes to Dog vs Cat war
		- The scores for each team are now saved to a .txt file every time a point is scored. This means that the values are safe if my 			computer restarts without saving them. No more checking VODs for what the scores were!

	- New commands: !warhelp and !rrhelp
		- !warhelp gives a link to the same google doc that !commands does but words it in a way that will assist new viewers in figuring out why the hell everyone is typing !dog and !cat.
		- !rrhelp does the same as above, but for RR and Nagito.

	- The entirety of PhorceBot is now backed up to the interwebs. In the event of data loss, I won't need to remake everything!

- New Things
	- I feel super bad about how often I've been late for starting my streams recently. I'm going to put my best effort into being on time (8pm Eastern) going forward. Additionally, I'm moving into phase 2 of my "do longer streams" plan, which I initiated a month-or-so ago. I will now aim for streams to be 5 hours minimum, often going for around 6. This is only phase 2 - Stream times will get longer and longer over the months.

	- I'll be working on some new emote drafts over the next few days. Subscribers, make sure to check in on the subscriber-lounge channel of my Discord! I post everything there to get opinions. If you want your voice to be heard, that is the place to do it!

	- I'm currently brainstorming ideas for the second episode of Mind Dump. My focus for this episode will be better clarity in my explanations, and smoother editing.

	- While I don't add new Moderators to my chat very often, I am always on the lookout for good candidates. I add new mods as they are needed, not preemptively. If you want to be a candidate, show a good, clean attitude in chat, don't feed trolls, and at least show up to the stream once in a while. And most importantly, never ask for mod!

	- I will be attempting to raise money for me to go to AGDQ. The goal is $900 USD, which will cover flight/hotel/food for the week. I've never been a fan of "asking for money" on my stream, so I will do my best to keep this as discreet as possible. If the goal is not met by December 15th, I will either save the money for SGDQ, or donate the raised money to the event (decided by vote).
