It’s Getting Hot in Here Edition

Hey guys, how’s it goin?

The PPC tournament has 13 matches done. The group stage is about half-way complete. I had my last match on Friday and managed to PB Hard mode shortly beforehand. It tempts me to take back my PPC Challenge records instead of going through NPC. Thing is, I’m kinda going through NPC before transitioning into PPL in time for the speedrun tournament next year. I’m just now deciding that on a whim so it is subject to change.

In other stream news, I am coming to the realization that my issues with my Internet are almost entirely a function of my electrical issues. The less I run my portable air conditioner throughout the day, the more upright the connection remains. This likely means that I have to rely on a box fan to stay cool if I have any hope of reliable streaming going forward. All the more reason to stay hydrated, I guess. This week will be a stress test to determine whether I will be able to restream tournament matches going forward.

In other gaming news, I have lost SO MUCH SLEEP playing Dragon Ball Fusions. I really am a sucker for RPGs where positioning in battle is important. Then again, the whole “fusion” mechanic the game promotes so much is not that useful ingame so it’s a little disappointing. Still, I’m playing it so much that I’m already at the endgame. One small problem: I’m running out of Namekians to recruit to have the maximum energy needed to unlock the barrier to planet Beerus. I’d like to unlock it before proceeding with the endgame. All I know to do at this point is just keep looking for green energy. It’s the one thing that’s gotten me even slightly down about the game. That and trying to find Marron’s belongings was a bitch.

In real life news, my mother says that the elliptical we just found through Craigslist is helping me tone up. I don’t see or feel any difference, but this is the kind of thing I need to take time with in order to feel any benefits. I am getting a much more intense workout with it every time than any time I’ve had with the exercise bike. More on this story as it develops.

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