Sub Goals, Hoenn210, and more

Hey guys! Just wanted to give everyone a quick update on some things, mainly my Sub Goals, Hoenn210, and some other kind of interesting stuff:

===Sub Goals===

First off, thanks to some really generous gifting in my community, we hit our latest sub goal of 25!! For that sub goal, we're going to do an Omega Ruby All Trainers speedrun on September 16th! I'll solidify the ruleset (for rematches and the like) before the event and share that when I have it. It's going to be a ton of fun, and I'm really excited for it

Second, we hit our (old) sub goal of 30 which was for a blind "speedrun" of USUM, courtesy of wartab. This was the second of my "blind speedrun sub goals", which we never reached and I sort of gave up on. I don't want to continue this with the other games still, but I am going to honor the old sub goal since wartab did win the prize from the Sapphire stream. He is going to let me choose between USUM and SuMo, so we'll see what I go for. Date on this is TBD, but probably sometime at the end of September/beginning of October

My new sub goal is going to be 40, which will be for a Blue 124-esque run in Omega Ruby where I catch all of the Pokemon obtainable in a single file. Another run which I need to solidify a ruleset (no time-based locations, items, etc). We'll set a date for this if we hit the goal, but I know it'll be hard to keep going up with a bunch of the subs I got yesterday being gifted

The only other idea for future sub goals I have is a Solo diploma runback in Red/Blue. We'll think of more, but that will likely be 50 if we ever need that one

===Hoenn210===

Don't worry, I didn't forget about this one! Hoenn 210, for those that don't know, was a bit goal I ran earlier in the year where, when met, I would do a "complete the Hoenn dex" speedrun in Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire. Using both games and trading between them, this is doable, however I never set a date for this and I never attempted it

I plan on setting a date as soon as I can find a good weekend to do this. The issue with this vs something like the All Trainers run is that I think this is going to be somewhere in the realm of.... many hours (Catch Kyogre in one game and Groudon/Rayquaza in the other is already 7+ hours) where All Trainers is likely more manageable. This means I need to make sure I have a 100% free weekend where I can stream this Saturday and sleep all day Sunday. I'm thinking October has a few openings, but I'll let people know as soon as I set a date. This is going to be a run you don't want to miss!

===Some other kind of interesting stuff===

People (often on weekends when I have higher viewer counts) keep asking why I'm not a partner and, while I'd love for it to happen asap, I don't see it happening for a little while. It definitely is one of my goals though, so I'll always be working toward it. To shed some light on my current numbers, here's a few average viewer counts for the last two months:

7/1/18-9/4/18 (weekends only): 60 over 7 streams
7/1/18-9/4/18 (weekdays only): 36 over 15 streams
7/1/18-9/4/18 (all streams): 45 over 22 streams

I did take a bit of a hiatus in August, but the numbers hold true for the last few months too. You guys can now see what I see, which is that my weekend streams are much more popular, which is to be expected. I think the key isn't necessarily the weekends, but more the time of day that I stream (morning rather than night), however that's not exactly something I can change for my weekday streams. This disparity, in addition to the partner requirements (12 streams, 75 viewers over 30 days), make it pretty difficult for me at this time to get there

On the bright side, I wasn't expecting my 2 month average to be as high as 45. That's encouraging at least!

This part was just kind of some useless numbers, but I wanted to share some of the thoughts I had on my current stream standing so that way it's out in the open if people want to discuss at all.
