#PastebinMonday 04/20/2020 World F***ing Record Edition

Hey guys, how’s it goin?

It is finally done! After three months of trying, I finally have conquered the last of the Nintendo Puzzle Collection Panel de Pon VS COM difficulties. The record was 16:59 and I was one second behind it for the longest time. The record is now 16:26. I have no intention of trying to improve it anytime soon. The mode is not fun to try and optimize because the CPU seems to behave very differently depending on the arrangement of the available panels. I need the CPU to chain as much as they can so I can pin them down, but they're not always capable of that. It feels like I'm just grinding luck and I have no desire to grind that type of luck anymore. I will be returning to Pokemon Puzzle League this week.

On my way out, I also took a stab at the Easy – V-Hard category of NPC and beat the previous record by almost five minutes on my first try. For whatever reason, my S-Hard time is just as problematic, otherwise I would have cut the hour with ease. Maybe another time.

I am also looking into changes into the Yugi route of Yu-Gi-Oh! The Falsebound Kingdom. This new route has been great at the beginning, but very disappointing in the second half. I have an idea how to get the best of both worlds, but I need extra time to route out the best use of it before trying it on stream.

Speaking of, I have decided on a five-day-a-week schedule for the foreseeable future. My plan now is to stream Wednesday through Sunday starting at 4pm ET each day. It's probably better for my “gaming skills” if I do not stop and start every other day like I was originally planning.

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