oh lol i see now

but why?

because i can

4:17 PM

What's the area like where you are for walking @Novolone ? Where I used to live was mostly just retail and industrial estates, I've moved to a place with some decent countryside now though

i'm walking in a residential suburb

I just had my best stream ever today I got 5 followers and 2 sub from youtube

noice

hell yeah bro

7:02 PM

nice

Get it man, get it

Nice! Congrats amigo. Follower pops are amazing

randomly one of my vids got like 300 views????

1

9:58 PM

but all my other ones have like 0 views im so confused

Don't pick at your toenail folks. Just get a pedicure, even as a guy.

10:31 PM

I went too far. I just lost my pinky toe's toenail.

10:31 PM

Hurts like heeeeeck

noted

Wut...

10:41 PM

This reads like a horror movie :I

10:41 PM

The whole toe nail!

It stings super bad.

10:42 PM

I got a bandaid on it but still

I don’t think you understand the face I made when I read that lol

10:42 PM

So much cringe aghhhh

Maybe something like..

what the hell

10:49 PM

ok a bandaid might not work

The whole nail!

you might want to see a specialist about it

Novolone the whole nail!

10:50 PM

That face.

do you have a history of diabetes or malnutrition

Nope, it was just a pretty thick toenail and was like.. Maybe I can pick like a bit off.

10:50 PM

Wut

well, i guess you're an overacheiver

ok seriously though

10:51 PM

see a physician because the wound site can get infected and then you are fuk

Don’t lose the toe

10:51 PM

...

I'll make sure to keep the wound clean. I'll keep the bandaid on to let it close on it own, take it off and then see if I can clean it before putting one back on again.

10:52 PM

Lowest risk of infections.

AHHH YOU LOST THE WHOLE NAIL WTF

I know ;~;

well know you know what a toe without a toenail looks like

Wtf have I come back to

I didn't look properly my guy, I slapped a bandaid on it asap.

10:57 PM

I'm squeamish with that stuff on my own body.

It looks like a gagle of tendons

Couldn't even look at my own knee after I ahd knee reconstruction surgery.

Had a friend who knocked theirs off as well

10:58 PM

That sucks man, but they grow back so just keep it clean

Will do for sure.

11:00 PM

Maybe I'll book a pedicure once it's safer to take better care of my feet and toenails from now on.

11:00 PM

My grandmother swore by them that they felt great too.

3 hours into Tsushima and it could potentially end up as GOTY. What an epic swan song for PS4. And the soundtrack OMG!

@W4RP nice I’m pumped to play that Monday. My T-shirt guy said then worked better for him so I’m going to be all anxious the whole weekend x:

12:20 AM

It looks so good

Friendly, how's the foot

2:10 AM

you ok?

Hey today is my birthday stream and I was wondering if anyone was up for jacks box

Happy birthday. Don't have Jack Box.

Tsushima is stunningly good.

9:06 AM

I've not seen something like this game.

9:06 AM

It's PACKED with stuff.

Morning everyone.

morning

Happy birthday@Yojojoman

3:17 PM

Hey @SoulDrinker @Tweak

Absolutrly knackered

Morning!

Anyone got any plans for the day?

Horro Stream baby! It sFriday!!

Nice.

3:21 PM

I'll be playing more DBZ Kakarot. While probably getting my butt whooped.

im probably gonna continue my gwent obsession

3:31 PM

im gonna die

I mean, we all are. It's just a matter if you die alone, or taking someone with you.

I'mma stream I'm not sure what tho

saaaame

4:05 PM

calculating whether or not to stream gwent but a) im not very good and b) ive been playing long time players all night

4:05 PM

feel like im trying to outbid jeff bezos in an auction

Aww thanks @maaliktomtom

4:12 PM

Also @Tweak for jacksbox only one person needs the game everyone else can play on any web browser

4:12 PM

That’s why it’s popular for streaming

And life is happening, so no stream for me today.

sorry to hear that man

Life is as life is.

Hi

1:01 AM

Hello

The fish evade me. I am the old man and he is the marlin yet not as noble. Much more filthy and bottom feeing. The catfish is my quarry and he has evaded me at every turn. Dam catfish and dame the rocks hungrily grasp at my hooks like a starving gypsy

im worried if i respond to your comment ill turn into a fish or something

thxs for coming out Novo hope u get over ur cold

5:03 AM

also r u planning on streaming tomorrow?

What did any of that even mean

5:07 AM

@TheEasternWizard you good?

He sounds just fine

5:13 AM

I think

I mean he is playing dark souls Maybe this is from too many deaths?

Nah, it gives a sense of anger, not being delusional

5:18 AM

or at the very least, altered

Loo@the more I reread it the more it sounds like ramblings xD

I'm always scared and confused when I return here....

Lol the random stems from here

Exactly

I'm watching this educational video on the development on children betweenb ages 6 - 11, where some kids are interviewed as well.

10:27 AM

So, this guy asks a 6 year old boy what he likes most about himself.

10:27 AM

"What I like most about myself.. Is that I have legs.. Because I like to play soccer."

10:28 AM

So precious

️

I also like that I have legs

Kids around the age of 6 have the most adorable answers to things like that.

10:53 AM

"What do you like about your friend?"

10:54 AM

"I like to play with them. And their hair."

10:54 AM

So simple. And so adorable.

it's really sad that we don't maintain that kind of innocence as adults

3:18 PM

also @SoulDrinker nah weekdays only

3:18 PM

unless i surpise strem

if we were all so innocent there would be no one to apprecciate it

Morning people.

yeah but we'd be much happier

@Shanecus Im good. I went fishing yrsterday for catfish and the bastard snapped one the firts line and the second 30lb lin he slipped off. 5 days in a row and they have given me the slip again

he's your white whale

unlucky lmk if u do

6:33 PM

and cheapest that sucks

sure thing @SoulDrinker thanks

6:51 PM

i like how you don't have the 27 in the discord lol

lmao

7:16 PM

I couldn't get it without the 27 anywhere elsw

7:16 PM

so

7:16 PM

yea

basically I had to add numbers to my username specifically in Minecraft and twitch and YouTube as apparently there is a souldrinker on those platforms already

7:37 PM

sorry if I'm explaining it poorly

Hi

hi

Hi

10:16 PM

How many people streaming big this weekend?

10:16 PM

Any crazy events?

hey how is everyone's day going

If I had more of an audience, I'd stream big

11:08 PM

But i don't know of any events, sorry.

im still on the gwent train and fighting my cold

Hey nice on getting really into a game tho @Novolone

11:24 PM

@Friendly what have you been big into streaming lately buddy?

11:24 PM

@tenesha0910 doing okay. Working slinging some coffee, but it’s slowed down a bit now xD

Right now I've been streaming Dragon Quest Builders 2 a lot. It's something I enjoy playing, it's bright and colorful so it should catch attention and because I like it, I can talk about it more easily so there's no large moments of silence.

That’s good! Have you been growing your other platforms as well?

You mean social media and such?

Yea, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and YouTube

I've a YouTube account, but that's just for watching videos. Twitter is out there, but not a large following on it yet to matter or pull in new viewers. I've never really used Instagram before, so I wouldn't know how to properly use it to get more people to visit my streams.

11:29 PM

As for Facebook, I don't think I've actively used it since the end of college xD

11:31 PM

It's tough to get off the ground, you know? I can stream for four hours after letting about 4 Discord servers know, tweeting it out with relative hashtags and inviting friends, but my average viewer count lingers around 1 or 2

I would say take a few days and build all those other sites as well. Discord is tricky because even here for instance it is all other streamers. Not viewers. So taking time to build those others is worth it even if it only gets you one or two new fans because those little numbers eventually start to snowball

11:32 PM

Post something on twitter daily. Post something on insta daily too

11:33 PM

Retweet and like people who say stuff like you. Hell I’ll follow you on there if you link it

In terms of building up the platforms and posting things, can it be anything? Or preferably related to the kind of content I try to stream?

11:34 PM

And sure, I'll link it. One moment.

It is anything that is authentically you

I also think my problems lie on the time I stream. I live in the Netherlands, and I like. To stream in my afternoons jnto the evening, from around 17:00 to 21:00, meaning the larger American audiences don't have a chance to watch.

Treat it like a job and make the content matter, but it doesn’t have to always be exactly on games for instance xD

11:36 PM

I get that lol. I stream late pacific time so usually when I start I get Europeans I’m their earlier Monday morning

I can switch it up. I like taking pictures of flowers and I try some drawing here and there, which I'm practicing.

Link your twitch to your discord too so I can find you on there also

yeah my streaming time is weird too but i tried streaming at night, didn't work lol

11:37 PM

nice

It is just about putting stuff out there and showing people you are you

11:37 PM

Or pretend to be a pirate on everything if you want xD

i don't know how to feel about streamer gimmicks

There we go, linked as well. Can't believe I didn't do that properly yet.

@Novolone they gimmicks I just don’t get. Works for some tho I guess lol

1

I feel like you need a natural charisma to pull off gimmicks

11:40 PM

I guess you do with all kinds of streaming.

Yea and finding your niche and tribe takes some time amigo

Definitely

11:43 PM

I have been thinking of finding a new game to stream though. As much as I enjoy playing Dragon Quest Builders 2, I feel like it's not something a lot of people will enjoy watching as much as I enjoy playing it

11:44 PM

Is there any rule on running emulators in stream? I vaguely recall about it not being allowed?

11:50 PM

Looks like I'm not allowed.

11:50 PM

The general consensus online is that you use it at your own risk.

11:50 PM

They just have to be able to prove that you're using an emulator to punish you.

11:50 PM

But I'm not taking chances.

Yea emulators are a big grey area. Widely used Small enforcement It is tricky that way :/

I'll stick to what I have in my library then

if you want to emulate you should be able to prove that you own a legal copy of the original game

12:22 AM

at least

yep

I'm dying help, I ate too much sushi and I want to die

@Lily_Aspen worth it

12:39 AM

Had some good poke last night

oh shit

1:02 AM

i know that feel

1:02 AM

got any pepto bismol?

Nah it's just that my stomach was going to explode and my intensines were going to spill out onto the floor.....

1:17 AM

Feeling better now

because you are post explosion instead of pre explosion? lol

Post explosion is always better

Nah my stomach simply grew 10 times this day

fk

2:40 AM

5:24 PM

Get what?

Lol get them views

Gottem! 4 to 5 people watched this time around, which encouraged me greatly!

6:06 PM

I've got to have some dinner though, I might go again at night to get some US viewers.

Noice! Keep it up

Will do! I enjoyed myself quite a lot knowing there were people actually listening.

6:13 PM

Even if there's literally no one, I keep talking to myself, just to keep it all going.

6:14 PM

Even if the people didn't interact this time around other than my friend, knowing there's ears listening did me good

I understand that completely

6:26 PM

I’m glad you had a good one!

Hope everyones having a killer weekend

I was

8:11 PM

Wondering on whether or not I should go stream now. It's 23:20 here now, so I might be able to reach a new audience.

23:28 for me

@Friendly Dude I streamed at midnight last night and had my best stream ever, the night crowd can really be a good time i even made a separate name and art for my late night streams def stream at night

I'll keep that in mind for sure! I think I'll go for it tomorrow. I just took a sleeping pill to get a good night's rest, so I don't think I should stream at this very moment.

10:12 PM

But I'll do so tomorrow!

anyone try out Fault yet? I am thinking about streaming it a bit tonight if anyone wants to join

10:30 PM

Hey guys

2:25 AM

So I got a digital code that I’m giving away through a try not to laugh contest

2:25 AM

Whomever makes me laugh gets the code for Metroid prime trilogy on Wii U

are somewhat dark humor jokes ok?

2:29 AM

or do you prefer puns?

@MannyTheMilkman posted the rules in #old🔴streams

What’s up everyone

5:21 AM

I am a total noob to discord. Cool interface

5:21 AM

I’m looking to buy a new webcam. What do you all use?

Good morning everyone! And sorry, don’t use a webcam just yet.

C920 is a good starter camera

I use my phone

That's probably the best option considering you can't find a c920 RN unless you sacrafice an infants soul

also using phone

I have plenty of those laying around fanta if you want one

nah i have one

3:45 PM

suggesting for Pigeon master if your looking to donate it

oh I meant infants souls

3:47 PM

should've specidied

Fair and nah I'm good there's like a school nearby

oh nice

3:57 PM

I see u have plenty of access to them then

Alright boys, we're doing another Twitch Sings stream!

have fun

then he was lost to the unyeilding waves of the music

lol yeah hopefully it goes over well. the first one was a blast!

Sounds like a good time my dude, may you find yourself on some rockin' seas

When my chair is a rockin, please come a knockin

nice

yessss just had a great time in valorant

8:37 PM

i finally was able to git gud

But was good able to get you?

Time for some midnight streaming, gotta' get some energy!

I’ve been trying to decide if buying a Sony A5100 for streaming is worth it camera wise. I want it to second as a YouTube camera as well

10:59 PM

@Friendly you gotta this! Lol I’ll cheer from the coffee shop

Phew, that was a little tough. Night time streaming is fun since some other people are active, but it's tiring.

@Shanecus What do you have now?

The cheapest possible cam Best Buy sold.

mood

Anybody stream IRL?

No i do it over the internet

6:16 AM

AYOOOOO

Good morning everyone!

@maaliktomtom I see the dad jokes have come naturally to you

Morning everyone.

Morning Tweak

How're you today?

Doing pretty okay! Ordered some food just now and am anxiously awaiting the delivery person

Nice. I'm trying not to fall asleep.

2:40 PM

What kind of food you order?

Delicious döner and some fries on the side.

Nice. That sounds good about now.

It sure does. I'm hungry, so the wait is excruciating.

2:46 PM

and I'm watching food shows!

Never a good combination.

2:52 PM

basically this

Hey what’s up guys

What’s up pal

Nothin much just got back from the post office. What’s up with u

Working my life away sadly thought I’d just scroll through discord and see what’s popping

Oof hope that lets up soon

Time to go live again! Woo!

Have a good stream man:)

I envy people that get energy from the coffee I sell. Tell me your ways!!!!!

take your own product

9:05 PM

damn i played like crap today

:(

lol coffee doesn’t do jack for me

9:34 PM

I wish my dude

Man.. Just wasn't feeling the stream today.

9:36 PM

Over an hour and a half of just talking to myself. I got a little disheartened at the end.

good morning

Morning.

sorry to hear that man

wait friendly

10:25 PM

do you have vods save

I don't think so?

11:00 PM

Is that something I should have turned on? And how do I do so?

let me check

11:10 PM

yeah sometimes some people will want to watch your old streams just to see if your current stream is any good

11:10 PM

plus if you want to edit together yt content you will have the old stream around to download

11:11 PM

aight, you want to go to creator dashboard -> preferences -> channel

11:12 PM

and ctrl f "store past broadcasts"

11:12 PM

that allows your vods to be saved to your channel

11:12 PM

for 14 days if you're not partner (edited)

Yo just wondering if anyone is up for follow for follow https://m.twitch.tv/gizyourhippo/

gizyourhippo Videos - Twitch

Come watch me and my Friends play games and have fun I am a small streamer from Ireland who plays games and wants to share content with whoever wants to watch leave a follow if you stop by

@Deleted User dont do tht shit dude

2:10 AM

#old🔴streams

what's the best way to start from having 0 followers on Twitch? Would just be streaming for every once a day work?

Well people just ghost in #old🔴streams @maaliktomtom

@inflow yup.

2:13 AM

@Deleted User be more entertaining and learn marketing

2:14 AM

If people dont come to your stream youre doing somethint wrong

2:15 AM

You have no profile picture on discord or twitch, you do "follow for follow" which turns most people off immediately and you promoted in main chat.

Okay I apologise

2:16 AM

My bad

Your aim should not be gaining more followers. It should be to grow your viewerbase and to entertain. If all youre streaming for is a follower count youre doing it for the wront reasons

My twitch does have a profile picture tho

Not really. Its an cartoon picture, right? What does it tell your audience? Like, you wanna gain more viewers? Network and market

So what should a twitch profile picture look like in your opinion

Look at the difference in adverts

2:19 AM

Between these two ads who would you rather click on?

Okay I get it but can nobody understand I’m only tryna get to grip with the whole thing

Thats fibe

2:20 AM

Fine

2:21 AM

Pay someone to design a picture for you. Think about what you want. You have the word hippo in your name. Do you want your picture to be of a hippo?

2:22 AM

Or you running away with a hippo?

2:22 AM

I dunno im not in marketint

2:22 AM

But you should give it some thought. Its the first thing people see when they see your ad

My name or my image

Image

2:23 AM

Either tbh

I’m at a disadvantage anyway about streaming being a console streamer people come at you over that type of shit

I miss streaming. Dont let your opportunity go to waste. Somethiny something moms spaghetti

2:25 AM

No youre not at a disadvantage lol nobody gives a fuck whether you stream on console or pc or anything.

Well people join all the time and just rip into me over it

How do they know?

2:26 AM

Ive streamed on console before and never had any problems

Because I play COD a lot and they can see that I’m playing Xbox or PS4 as I stream from both

2:27 AM

But I don’t got like a camera or no shit like that

What do they say?

2:27 AM

Oh you dont have a camera or mic?
