Delays and Gadgets Edition

Hey guys, how’s it goin?

The first broadcast of the Pokemon Puzzle Challenge tournament’s final bracket is already experiencing multiple delays due to staffing issues, but you will get to see the first round of the tournament later today, featuring yours truly and PPL S-Hard WR holder Tayman. This tournament was STACKED at the top. I might have to settle for second place in this one. At least I’m using this opportunity to improve my S-Hard time and actually making progress on that front. I expect the Intense grind to start next week.

By the way, I am aiming to start releasing the videos of the group stage matches this week. I did not keep track of the order the matches were shown so I’ll have to search through videos and logs to confirm the order I want to release them in. Once I do that, the matches should come out one a day until every match is released, which will probably be fully done after the end of the tournament.

In real life news, my mother’s crazy Craigslist capers have reached a new high—er, low—er, I don’t know anymore. Not only has she unearthed multiple old computers through free Craigslist ads, but she just came in last night with a TV radio, an old PC racing wheel complete with wheel and pedals, a tablet made for kids with a keyboard and a cracked screen, and a very scratched disc of Mario Party 5 that refuses to be read no matter what I do to it. There’s some damage on the inside of the disc that gives me pause as to whether it will ever be playable again. In any case, she’s finding some crazy things through the free stuff ads on Craigslist. I guess the moral of this story is: check out your local free Craiglist’s listings responsibly?

That’s my life story for the week. Until next time, everyone, thanks for reading!
