Let's Talk Streaming

             Now as you know I do the occasional social casts over at Twitch.tv and maybe once and a while for the just chatting on Facebook and Twitch but it is sporadic when things are calmer with the work load. I look forward to it but when I do stream, it will be on twitch.tv/gamerem15 but will not be as often unless I have a bunch of spare time so really the schedule is randomly and unknown, just sporadically I will be live for right now. So hopefully this weekend tomorrow I will go live for several hours.

             So I am planning to but the matter is when will I have time tomorrow hopefully I finish up The CBOTW Show for next week and Entertainment Man as well.  So much to do in such a short time with blogs and the podcasts, I just want a break from work where I can enjoy a day off but today is been a busy day in regards to getting content done and out and we will see if I can squeeze a few hours of gaming in as I do want to finish the subway system finally. Anyways that is the post for today and as always I will talk to you guys tomorrow!

Going back to our roots.

             I promise you guys this is the last time I am making the Main Channel as it is here permanently. We are going back to our roots where we were last week. ChrisBOnTheWeb Media is back on YouTube as the main channel and once I enable streaming, I will be getting back to this schedule:

Saturdays: Chatting Stream (Facebook, YouTube & Twitch)

Sundays: Gaming Stream (YouTube & Twitch)

            So with streams this weekend they aren't happening but may pop up Monday night if possible but if not then I will be off till 2 weeks this Saturday (tomorrow) if that is the case so I apologize but I will be not here physically in the studio nor will have time to stream while away. However stay tuned for some content on social media while I am gone. Anyways that is the blog for today, I will talk to you all on Monday as she's doing the end of the week updates.

YouTube and Copyright

                I know I have had to delete some of the streams cause of copyright and for crying out loud I muted quick but apparently not quick enough... So I know now I will not be streaming Grand Theft Auto 5 or Grand Theft Auto 6 whatsoever cause of the copyright and their very stingy on the copyright especially that I actually muted it very very quickly like give me a break! I muted it and very, very fast! But noooo they are too strict on this and why even allow us to stream it on YouTube and make it restricted in a pile of countries honestly? 

                This is most definitely off my list and I have a pile of other games I wanna play and get done and is more important on my list right now. Games I do wanna play more of all together. I just don't like the fact I turned it off quickly and yet I still get slapped with copyright so I deleted the streams and got rid of the copyright affected so now that is out of the way, I am going to focus on other things. Anyways that is everything I wanted to say about the subject and as always I will talk to you all tomorrow.

When Am I Going To Start Streaming Again?

             When am I going to start streaming again? I know I'm very extremely busy right now with Power Rangers Collab and Entertainment Man Podcast at the moment but I promise you guys soon I will be back. I just cannot give an ETA on that right now as I am so focused. However I can say this, I probably will be popping up from time to time and been setting up for streaming on the Facebook Fan Page. 

              Schedule wise it will be a weekly stream on Facebook ONLY. However when I am live I do encourage you to come out and hangout interact, ask questions about CBOTW (ChrisBOnTheWeb), etc. I want it to be interactive and a fun place to hangout outside of the content once a week. Anyways that is the post for today, I will be doing a schedule blog post tomorrow and posting it to the website to get it up and ready for you guys but I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Plans In August!

              As my parents will be away, I get the house to myself and more time to stream. So I plan on streaming everyday their gone and look forward to it. The days and times are yet to be determined but as I get closer to then I will announce it publicly. Once Power Rangers Collab is finished up I am off for an entire week before going back on a binge to work on the next season for October/November. That should be the end of this chaotic schedule. There is other projects and tasks I wanna do like for example the Power Rangers Movies as it has been officially noted between my partner in Podcast crime, Larry that we should start it this year. Anyways During the week off between Megaforce two seasons and Dino Charge, I plan a week to myself before planning on the next two. I was up very late last night working on the collab and pretty much done the first of the two seasons. 

          However, the point I haven't gotten too; as I said before, I will be live a bit while I am home, not during the day time, more evenings streams here in the studio. Some will be just chatting streams and some will be gaming and just chill streams. If I can figure out a way to stream without having 1000 subs as that is what your required, I'd definitely do a cooking stream but that is most definitely not doable right now but eventually yeah I could do a cooking stream down the road. What I may need to do is use prism then the mobile device and run the stream from down here in the studio and going to try it and see how it works despite i despise Prism Studio cause of the lag issues on the stream. My computer seems to not like it whatsoever. However that is the plan for August and I will be talking to you all tomorrow for the end of the week updates.

Think I Was Only Semi-Retired From YouTube & Streaming!

                As you know now, I have a YouTube Channel now! Not just a YouTube channel but two of them to be exact. One of them being Entertainment Man Podcast which has been running a few weeks to a month now. Also the gaming/streaming channel that I have on YouTube as well. I know I said that I was done with YouTube and that I'd never go back to owning a channel but as you guys know I have been bugged and begged to stream and make video content and I think you guys finally broke me enough that I did it. And to be quite honest, I am happy that you guys pushed me enough to make a return and things are a little different now then they were almost 6 years ago when I made the announcement that I was done with YouTube and creating video content for you guys. Honestly that has changed and changed quite quickly to be honest but again I am glad this happened. 

                To be quite honest, I wish it happened in 2020 when Entertainment Man Podcast first began it's journey but it is what it is and I have a lot of you guys to thank for that. So I guess you guys can consider it a Semi Retirement and that has now since gone to the way side where I am now streaming more often, well weekends but those details are coming this upcoming week for you guys what the plan is. What I am trying to say is I do not think I was fully retired from YouTube, I was just semi retired. I guess I cannot get enough of the YouTube platform now so I had to make a return to the platform. That is my post for today, I hope you guys enjoyed reading this post and enjoy the rest of your weekend and I will talk to you all on Monday even though it's a holiday, I'm still posting regardless but I will talk to you all then!

New Schedule Coming In January!

             With New Years looming closer the schedule for January has been completed.  What I mean I have tweaked the scheduling for 2022 once again in the way of content and even streaming. Here is my Content Schedule:

Sundays: Entertainment Man Podcast, 1 pm EST (Regular Episode)

Monday - Fridays: Daily Blog Post

Thursdays: Entertainment Man Podcast. 1 pm EST (Bonus Episode)

Here is then Stream schedule and now mind you I was going to stream on Twitter but I do not get many listeners so to start I am going to focus on the Facebook and Instagram Social Media for right now. Here is the timetable:

Wednesdays: Instagram Stream, 3 pm EST(Subject To Change If I am busy with family)

Saturdays: Facebook Group Stream, 1 pm EST

              Originally with the content schedule I had the Saturday blogs saved for Saturdays but due to the recent increase in cases, I am putting that on hold at this moment. Also small note that Power Rangers Collaboration posting is a sporadic schedule and why there are times for us being quiet and not saying anything. Anyways those are the updates and they are subject to change at anytime. I will talk to you guys tomorrow!

Already Started To Prepare For a Podcast's Return!

                  I have a ton of information regards to podcasts and this one is a project I am working on that use to be talked about and no it isn't Everything About Reality TV Podcast, I am done with that podcast same with The CBOTW Show. What I am talking about is CBOTW Gamers Podcast. The gaming podcast is planning to return and it will have a co-host which will be my nephew. We have been talking and we are planning right now and we start on Audio ONLY then move to video later on. Right now I am trying to get my channel on Trovo back up and running as it was banned. No guarantees it'll be back, I am talking to them about bringing it back. I really do not care if I get a subscriber button on there, I am there for love of the podcast. Also if I get the channel back, I will spend a few years building up the audience on the platform then it will be time to introduce the podcast to video once I have an audience.

                 So it is coming back and the preparations have already begun. It will probably be years before the podcast begins so we've got time to do a lot of the Behind The Scenes work and logistics before we start to do this podcast. I do not wanna jump into the podcast on video without an audience and it would be best if I did grow an audience first before it starts up so I think that is what is best for growing that podcast. The fact also that Entertainment Man Podcast and Power Rangers Collab is still on going and I rather do 2 podcasts at a time not 3 as it was a pain to do 3 podcasts. Probably have Entertainment Man Podcast run several more years anyways at the most, it will be an ongoing project too at this moment but when time comes I will be happily switching to that podcast down the road I'm sure. That is my post for today, hope you guys enjoyed it and I will talk to you all tomorrow for the end of the week updates.

Do I Miss Streaming At All?

               The question is do I miss streaming? The  answer is a straight plain NO. The reasons behind that are trolls, I have a zero tolerance for the trolls especially and also the fact I have had to endure the amount of dislikes on each video on YouTube, I do not miss it whatsoever. Twitch or any other platform, I pretty much got trolled the heck off at least 3 or 4 platforms over the course of time. I could care less about video platforms I am very much happier where I'm at right now and that is what matters to me is I rather do the blogging and podcasting on Audio Only then waste my time stream. I know CBOTW Gamers Podcast is pending to return and there has been talks about me bringing it to video but I would have to convince my potential to stay Audio ONLY and to be honest not sure if it'll happen but it is being talked about and not 100% sure if it would happen whatsoever. 

                Back to streaming, I do not miss the trolls, it was pathetic to having to put up with that day in, day out and I do not miss any of this. I got better things to do with my time then streaming. I still got OBS in case of the slight chance but to be honest I will use it in case I fail to get Mix Minus setup by July for Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast and we may have to push back Mystic Force as I have been diddly daddling but the only reason I would use OBS only in case the mix minus is not setup properly and need more time but we'll find out tonight what happens with the settings but OBS is there as a primary back up for that but more then likely I will never stream ever again. That ship has sailed and I am very happy and comfortable where I am to this day with what I am doing. Yes CBOTW Studios and the CBOTW Studios Bot have been disabled on Twitch and more then likely will never log back into that account that is that post and there is a special guest post tomorrow and you might see em around my Facebook Group and my Twitter from time to time so I will talk to you all Monday, have a great weekend!

Mixer Shutting Down-- My Thoughts?

           This came sudden to me with the announcement for Mixer streaming website and I was honestly shocked. I know recently I have had my own feelings about the website but will not talk bad about them as it was a really good website up to me being banned for apparently being under 13 years of age which all of you clearly know that I am not. I was reading into their blog post and did not understand why they were closing and it doesn't  really explain why it is shutting down but here's the article: https://blog.mixer.com/2020/06/22/the-next-step-for-mixer/  however I do not understand why. In my opinion it is truly sad to see another website closed. First Stickam which I grew up with, then BlogTV.com then Justin.TV, Stream.me and so forth. This does mean that streamers will either have to go to Facebook gaming as it says in the post or some go back to Twitch, YouTube or another website. I know how it feels to go from site to site, I've been there as some was the perfect fit for me some weren't. It is wherever you are most comfortable streaming to be honest/

            However I have to remain positive with this post and I have to say thank-you to the Mixer Team for being there for us gaming content creators and helping us grow as creators and grow our community and help us succeed in creating our own community and building. We understand why you have to close down and I remember when it first opened and trust me I was most impressed with the way it looked and I loved the way the chat looked and the name colors rather then a badge for a rank on your chat or even subscriber and I really liked that they were different from other platforms.  I may not be streaming games anymore but still support gaming sites even without it as I watch streamers like Taran from Rob Has A Podcast, Kevin from Big Brother Canada, Boogie2988, McJuggernuggets. Also still streaming our podcast on YouTube eventually. However thank you for reading what I have to say and stayed positive throughout the post and I will see you in the next post tomorrow.

I Wanna Do More Instagram and Facebook Chats With You Guys!

                      So recently about 2 days ago I sat down at my desk and did a  FB Live for another 30 minutes with you guys and it was honestly fun! I know it wasn't much of a turnout but had a bunch of people pop in. One of my Instagram followers and 2 from the Fan Page but I have to say, thank-you for tuning in. I honestly need to do it in the evenings now I think and I honestly think people would tune in more so that is definitely something to think about moving forward. I think it will be a great idea to connect with you guys and definitely an idea and gives me something to do honestly as these days I am bored out of my mind at times but busy with CBOTW stuff. I can say this we had a great conversation and a lot of sports stuff and I actually linked  a sports links in there. Maybe for one of them, I will do a Q & A edition and let you guys ask questions or could even be a video in it's entirity and been thinking about doing one with Larry.


                      Anyways, I am off topic like usual but I like the fact this is on a Wednesday but again, timing I think wasn't right actually. However the response to it especially on FB was crazy! the numbers for that live broadcast was really high almost 30 people have seen it and I haven't actually looked at it since the broadcast but was overwhelming to see the number of views and actually our like count went up on the page so maybe this is truly a sign to start doing something like this more often. With that I want to thank-you all again for tuning in the other day and I will let you guys know when I wanna do another one and hopefully next week I will get another one and I plan on doing it in the evening this time around maybe around 6 pm EST.

Semi-Retired From Streaming!

             I know you guys haven't seen me live for over a month now and it has been a long time since I've casted on my own channel and obviously still co-host after PRCB is recorded on the "After Dark's" however we haven't been live. So I guess at this moment, I am just semi-retired from Streaming minus the "After Darks" that I have done but again not sure what the plan is this week yet if I am planning to be on the podcast or not. More then likely am but we will see what this week brings but either way I still cast but it is more of a co-host but still its a cast. So it is a semi retirement but still active around the community and a big part of Punk Rock Cheeseburger. So I am not fully retired so technically the title I think is clickbait title... SMH! I honestly streaming is not as important but I do stream with Rocky on an almost week basis. My primary focus and always will be the podcasts and with Twitch being second on the list but like I said I am a Co-Host role more. As for the Chris985 account on Twitch, I only use it for listening to shows on Twitch on an almost regular basis and I do follow a ton of different people too.


           I think this is the best decision for me to not stream and plus I have been trolled left right and center on the website but letting it bother me no more and there is something planned for PRCB and I want to wait and yes Twitch is involved and like I said I am on weekly on PRCB and that's it. I am dedicated to being on his stream once a week and honestly I am happy about it. I mean not just happy but I am OK with this change and I wanted to try and get away from streaming a bit more and to be a co-host or guest on Rocky's stream, I am really happy with it. I know we haven't been streaming Friday night "After Dark's" as we both have been a bit busy lately but we are going to get back to it. As you can see on the screen cap I posted on the post here to the title of the post for today, I changed it as I am technically Semi-retired from streaming as I said above. Why did I do this? Well I think it is more suitable that it says that I am semi retired not fully retired from streaming. It was the wrong idea and honestly the original title felt very clickbait for a title. I honestly do not want to be know for being a click baiter so that is why I changed the title and very quickly. So that is what is going on with me streaming and that entire thing about me streaming even to FB Fan Page, more then likely it will not happen at all.

Final Thoughts on Life Is Strange Video Games

                It has been quite some time since I finished Life Is Strange like a month or 2 now and it is time to do a blog review of the game.  I can admit I have never once played a Life Is Strange video game, this is the first one and I got into this game from another podcaster and Twitch streamer after watching them I got the game on Steam and played it right through and majority of the game I streamed over on my Twitch channel which I have not streamed for a very long time as my schedule has been extremely busy but that is for another day on another blog post. I made the wrong choices on the game and that was my intentions from the start of the game I was going to make the wrong decisions and no matter what I did I did I ended up getting Chloe's character expelled from school either way or. When I got into this game, I had no idea what I was about to get into nor I knew how long the game would be but only 3 episodes plus the bonus. What do I mean by bonus. I got the DLC for the game which was only a little bit more of money. I do admit I got stuck in one of the chapters of the story but I did not give up at all. There is a learning curve but the fact I watched someone else play the game did help me a bit which I never did with the Walking Dead video game but even YouTube or Twitch helps with playing through a game as long as I understand how to beat level after level that is what matters. 


                 This game was very interesting story line throughout the game. I actually really like the game and plan on playing older versions of the game, the earlier versions. It is not a very long game but the story line lasts long enough per chapter so even with 3 chapters it is still a lengthy video game and I do not mind the length of the episodes. Some of the streams last hour to 2 hours with just one chapter which is good it fills up the time I am live on the air on Twitch. I highly recommend this game if you enjoy games with a story and where you have to make a choice. Yes choices may be tough but this game sure as heck make you think and I like the fact I had to think I really enjoyed it.


                   What is next since I finished this game? Well down the road, I do plan on actually planning to play the previous Life Is Strange video games and you know never know I may end up streaming it on my spare time or the other option for me is play it on my spare time but either way I do plan on playing the video game down the road along with other video games on my list which in a couple of days, I do plan on doing an updated list of what games I would like to play but the other Life is Strange video games is most definitely on my list as I really enjoyed Life Is Strange: Before The Storm and I think I am going to get it either this month or next month at the most and do stay tuned as I am planning to do more video game reviews down the road.
