Okay...

First, GypsyElder is streaming more Catherine right now.

Second, I received an Email saying I have been nominated for King of the Web's Gaming King. I thought it was a scam at first, but it checks out. I think I was nominated as a joke. But I am embracing it. When I first saw the rankings, I was ranked 93 out of 1251. It sounds impressive, but when there are only 110 people with votes, 93rd Place isn't too impressive. The others are just people that don't visit the site. I don't know.

Anyway, after a little campaigning, I am now ranked 34 out of 1251. If you don't mind, I would like to ask for your support as well. You can vote up to ten times in each category, and if you do you then get 10 bonus votes. So, you could potentially give me twenty votes. On top of that, you can vote everyday up until the end of the contest. So, twenty votes times six days...that's 120 votes to me. If you want. Just go to www.kingofweb.com and vote for me. My name is michaelswayne. You can either search for in the search bar, or by clicking on the Gaming King Leaderboard. I appreciate it.

In other news, I watched the 2013 CCTV Spring Festival Gala today. I totally forgot the time difference and missed the first hour. And then, it was a different format than normal. Instead of showing the gala, they would only show certain performances and then cut to the news studio. I didn't like that too much. The big thing about the gala was Celine Dion's performance with Song Zuying. In a word, it sucked. She ruined the song. Well, it was more her style of singing that ruined it. She was singing a traditional folk song that has been sung a certain way since it was written in the 18th century. But she turned it into a dance number.

And I won't go into her performance of My Heart Will Go On. If you've seen her sing that once, you know how it was this time.

Anyway...

I got the microphone for my GameCube today. If only I had Mario Party 7 so I could use it. It should be here on Monday...I think.

Well, that's all for now. I hope to see you around the forums, and until then...

Later!

Michael

    I thought Mario Party 6 was the one that utilized the microphone - in fact, I'm almost certain it came with a bundle. Did 7 also support it? Would make sense, I suppose.

    And now, I'm also watching the Catherine stream. kthx <3

    Both 6 and 7 use the microphone. I couldn't find a bundle cheap enough, so I had to buy them separate. I told my brother that chances were that the microphone would arrive before the game. I think the microphone was something not used enough with the GameCube. Only four games were compatible with it.

    I've voted for you sir.
    If I remember I'll keep doing so.
    Is everyone really just streaming their gaming these days? I'd watch them but I can't understand the logic really - I'd rather just be playing than watching someone play personally. I think it has something to do with having really limited net access here too though. I'd stream my games but I doubt many people would be interested in little 'ol me.

    I just realized that BB code doesn't work in blog entry titles. I will change that real quick.

    Thanks, Martin, for your vote. I greatly appreciate it! I love watching people play video games more than actually playing myself. And I always support TFF members who stream/post videos of them playing. I am subscribed to I think ten TFF members on YouTube (actually, it's only nine; the tenth is a member of another forum). I give likes to their videos and even post their channels to my channel so people who view mine can easily view theirs as well. And on Twitch, I only follow TFF members (GypsyElder, che, LocoColt04, and others). If you were to stream/post, I would watch you as well.

    I don't how to stream myself, but I post a video on YouTube every Friday. For now. I am still trying to balance YouTube with work and find a time I can devote to filming. When things get more settled, I would like to try to film more.
