I just realized I haven't posted a thing on here about what's been going on. On December 1, I was diagnosed with both two large kidney stones.. and a tumor on my kidney. (Same kidney, no less).. So I had the kidney stones taken out surgically on December 11th, then had a healing period before they could go in after the tumor. March 13th (two days ago) I had robotic surgery to get the tumor out of there. Dr. says he got the whole thing out, so I should be home free. I will still not know whether it was actually malignant cancer until he gets the results back from pathology, which will be in a couple of weeks. I stayed overnight in the hospital after surgery, but I am back at home, and am doing pretty well. Pain is still higher than I'd like it to be, but that's how healing works. I will be back to filming my YouTube series by April 1st, and shouldn't have to miss too much there.. and as for streaming, at this time I'm planning to be back April 1st. But anyway - that's the main reason there haven't been any updates on here for a while.

However, What I really did want to mention, is that last week of "vacation" - I'm going to dedicate some time to updating ALL my challenge rule sets and the spreadsheets. So that should be finished before I start streaming again - I hope.

One last note: After much agonizing deliberation, I have pulled the forums down that were on this site. You can still easily contact me via comment or the "send me a message" page - and most of the people signing up for the forums were spam accounts. Which was a real hassle and headache. Finally, I just decided Discord is way easier to police and keep safe for everyone - so if you do want to chat about my challenges, there are channels for each of my challenges there. I apologize, but spending 4-5+ hours a week deleting spam member sign-ups just got old.. fast.
