#PastebinMonday 05/27/2024 A Week For Self Improvement Edition

'Sup, doods!

Part of me does not know what to do with myself right now. It has been six months since I took a day off from the day job and now I have a whole week for self improvement in front of me. I have at least one doctor to go visit. I have a tournament broadcast layout to polish off once and for all. I have a personal broadcast layout to polish off once and for all. I just remembered that I have one Easy – V-Hard Tetris Attack PB to prepare for YouTube publishing and another one to track down in my archives. I have a 90% finished script to finish up and review before filming gameplay.

Before all that, I am looking at a hard drive that has fewer than 30 GB of available space. I cannot begin to try and create anything new without freeing up some extra space first. I have so many videos that I need to move off of my hard drive. I have so many files that I need to organize. I've lost track of what I have downloaded that I no longer use.

I have a lot to clean up, doods, but I have a week now to take care of much of it as I can. It's a week for self improvement above all else.


Today's (permanent) extra streaming goals:

Goal #4: compute everyone's precise tournament winnings and process payouts.
Goal #5a: clean up my hard drive. It is almost full from tournament footage. I MUST clean it all up before I can move forward with any other video making.
Goal #5b: finalize the tournament layout once and for all in a way that I can adapt for the Pokemon Puzzle League tournaments.
Goal #6: script and record footage for my Puzzle League tutorial series. I have some scripts left to touch up before feeling comfortable with moving on to recording gameplay. Then I will need to record my talking points and edit it all together. Getting back to this will be easier once the workflow for the monthly tournaments is finalized.
Goal #7a: clean up my own stream layout. Most of the framework necessary for a semi-proper stream is done now thanks to streaming the process. Next objective is to make transitions and alerts.
Goal #7b: catch up on video archives that I have yet to upload since I restarted streaming.
Goal #8: release the Puzzle League tutorial series YouTube shorts once a day until they're all done. I really do think I need to time the release of the series with a ramping up of my streaming schedule so that I can take advantage of whatever there is to gain from releasing the shorts.

This week's schedule:
Friday @ 9pm-1am EST – Friday Night Salt Mines – How Much Have I Cleaned Up Edition, Doods!
I may try a test stream before then if I decide to stop using the restreaming services.


That’s my life story for the week. Until next time, everyone, be decent to each other. Later, doods!
