• Notes: Yes, this is a major change, I'm cutting back to four days a week streaming Sims. This is a TEST to see how it works out, and if it helps combat the burnout I have been feeling coming on lately. However, it will also give me some "creative time" that I have been sorely missing, and allow me to get some blogging stories out. On days that I'm working on a stream-able blog story, I will hop online and show you all what I have going on in the background, but the two I picked this week just aren't really stream-able.
• Also: this schedule obviously doesn't reflect my second channel, which I will likely be streaming on each evening (https://twitch.tv/thrallsnightoff/) .. Currently working on Assassin's Creed Brotherhood!

Fun Stuff:

• Community Challenges! - I have all three of my possible challenges up and ready for funding (i.e. wasting your points on... ) Feel free to fund whichever you want first, or keep things wild and interesting by funding all three each day. Basically, you're able to spend a maximum of 2k channel points per stream day on each of these challenges.
  • Sims Murder Party: 8 Rainbow sims competing to see who lives the longest. Chat redeems to add either helpful or murderous items to my build, as well as other chaos redeems. This idea comes from BritishSimerTime's stream - and as a chat participant.. it was SO much fun.
  • Coming Soon... My new Homes for Gnomes Village project: Another Community Challenge that, once funded, will be an interactive Shell challenge and special build a long stream (starting in August at the earliest) where I will give everyone participating (whether there for the build a long or just signed up via the Google Doc I will set up) a 15 by 15 outdoor room with a shell on it to decorate based on prompts I will be providing. Themes will be based on the base game gnomes in Sims 4, and the shells will be built by me to match. I will spin a wheel for each participant live on stream to see which gnome and shell you get, and your job will be to decorate it in the month following. Lastly, I will put together all builds into a huge downloadable Gnome Village lot (or lots if we have enough participants) and we will schedule a tour of all the builds! Again, you'll have a full month to put your build together as a participant, and they will all be "tiny homes", so this should not be too time-consuming or difficult for anyone. Depending on how this works (or doesn't), I may do more challenges based on this general idea.
