The Michael Swayne Story V: King of his Castle

There are less than 18 hours left in the current Gaming King competition. As you can see from the title, I am still in the Top 10. Currently, I am 140 votes ahead of the 11th Place person. I have no idea who the person is, and frankly, I don't care to. It's just another Minecraft gamer. Nothing against the game, because I am sure it's fun, but making video after video of a game like Minecraft must get boring. It has to. I have watched tens of Minecraft videos, and they are basically the same thing.

The same could be said about my Microsoft Hearts series. But the difference is that my series is almost complete. There are only ten hands played. Some YouTubers spend hours upon hours with Minecraft. Maybe I would be saying differently if I would ever play the game. But I won't. It doesn't seem like something that would keep my attention. Just like FarmVille and games like that. I probably have a ton of dead farm animals and crops from my neglect to my farm.

Anyway, I filmed a new video today, and it wasn't a card game. Today I did a Speed Run of the online game Free Icecream. It is supposed to be scary, but I don't see how. I also have ideas floating around of a future series. I still need to finish QWOP.

Correction: I have just finished QWOP. Another video I need to edit and post. So, with QWOP, the Hearts tiny-series, and Free Ice Cream all ready for editing, I will have plenty of time to think of what will be next. I may try and connect the PS3 to the computer and figure out how my video capture card works.

Now in console gaming, I played Skyrim most of the day. I am really getting into the game. Mainly because the side missions are rather easy. And the fact that I am getting more and more trophies is encouraging me to play more. And it's for what seems to be random missions.

I also watched Gypsy Elder livestream on twitch today. She was playing Demon's Souls and Tales of Symphonia. The first doesn't seem like one I would like to play, but the second does seem interesting. I may get a copy.

My checks came in the mail today. Now I feel even more adult-like.

My brother got out of jail today. Since he came home, he's been telling about his time there. I think he's leaving out some stuff, because he seems quieter than normal. I think I know, but I won't mention it here.

Anyway...

Dad is with his other family. Mom wrote him a letter; and from the weight of the envelope, there is a lot in there. Whatever it says, dad brought it on himself. I have no love or respect toward him anymore, so it's no longer a concern of mine.

Tomorrow is another gaming day. And the last of the weekend. Since I am working on Monday. I will make the most of the day.

Well, I am off to play some more. I hope to see you around the forums, and until then...

Later!

Michael
