Gaming Updates

            Another update is here for video games. Not much more to report but as you can see on the right hand side the apartment building was torn down as I was not happy with it and need to do a full on rebuild on it at a smaller scale. Also built out back of the houses in the dome a barn full of animals that is over crowing the pens but no shortage of food right now which is great to have. 

          Stardew Valley, I streamed on the Facebook page for an hour and was quiet so I'm not even sure if I was even streaming as it was quiet but that's OK, I won't be streaming there anymore. I have moved the horse stable closer in to near the house without having to look for the building. Also in the midst of updating the tools and have a shortest of iron right now but I will fix that very quickly. As for The Binding of Isaac Re-birth, I am not even going to talk about it as it's getting more and more frustrating. That is the updates for gaming and I will talk to you all tomorrow for a special post about The CBOTW Show.

Avatar The Way of the Water Movie Review

               I was completely confused by the movie and I've never seen the first one ever. I kind of got bored of it and hard time to focus even towards the end and I didn't like the fact it was sooo long of a movie, about 3.5 hours long. However I did like some of the scenes in the movie without spoiling the movie. The action in it was really good but it was the length that was the problem with the movie. Too long and I was getting stiff from sitting even in a reclining chair they have now at the theatres still too long to sit. 

                To be honest I am not sure if I'd actually watch a 3rd movie but we'll see, I just wanna see what happened with the Commander who seemed to survived in the end but that's not really a spoiler but it is I guess in the end. Anyways that is the post and review and I would give it a generous 5 out of 10 not bad bad but it's more of in-between right now on my rating for this movie. Now this is the first time I have scored a movie low in any review I have done over the years but cannot always be satisfied right. I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Catching Up With You All!

          Well, after a week away and the drama that happened with me and the fan page being blocked for no apparent reason and all we asked is you do not block us, we needed you to see updates and it is rude to do that, so I just went off and ended up deleting the group all together. It is the fan page that Mark, Larry and I wanna focus on growing and recently it's started to peak again since we returned and with Mark the views on the page and the interest has gone down for a week or two but recently started to peak as we continued on to post every day. I know Saturday we went dead quiet and that was cause of the issues in the group we were busy dealing with.

             I do have something I want to mention to you guys and Larry and I talked about it over the weekend when we went to the movies which there will be an update on that. In better news, I will be opening up The CBOTW Show for auditions for Survivor and Big Brother Canada Recaps in January and February to try and grow a community within a community and excited for this to get underway. Anyways that is the post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow for a gaming update.

End of The Week Updates [12-16-2022]

              Not sure how Chris does end of the week updates but I am going to give it a go this week as he is still MIA and hasn't been returning messages all week long so he must gotten himself into a ton of work this week perhaps. 

Chris- I hope he returns on Monday to blogging as he's been off and away from the blog all week long but if not then I will be covering him for another week but hope to get a message from him this weekend on an update about that. 

Entertainment Man Podcast- What I have seen by his Tweets he has finished and wrapped up recording Entertainment Man Podcast for 2022 and now is on break along with Power Rangers Collab for recording wise. 

Power Rangers Collab- What I heard through the grapevine is Chris and Larry had a top secret meeting yesterday night about he collab so they must be cooking up a storm with ideas for the new year at this point. 

Website Updates- He was going to update the about section but we never got to it this week, maybe after the holidays we will sit down and do some revisions to it perhaps. 

Reminder of Holiday Blog Schedule: Dec 24th - 26th, No blog; Dec 27th - 30th, 2022- Normal Blog; Dec 31st, 2022 7 Jan 1st, 2023, No blog with blogs resuming on Mon. Jan 2nd, 2023.

            That is the update, we hope you guys have a great weekend and will see you around the CBOTW Community!

My Feelings About The Video Projects Team

                 Things were never always roses behind the scenes and like I mentioned yesterday, there was a ton of drama. I will not mention names but I know I said camera man but which camera man in particular I will say as he had a ton of camera men back in the day. particularly the one he had in late 2008 - 2010 there was always some kind of drama. I remember Skype call with the boss man Chris and he looked stressed the heck out. I asked him if he was OK and he said no. Chris even mentioned and a small disclaimer he's given me the greenlight long before as he wanted me to do a string of these posts so I have his permission to talk about it as long as names to people he doesn't talk to anymore weren't mentioned minus his which he was fine with that. 

                     Back to the story but after the 50th episode he was threatening to fire a bunch of people on his team that ran the event and camera as you guys didn't know he blew up on camera and now has become a bit of a viral video on YouTube with 2 to 300 views racked up on the video. My question to him that night was why didn't he get someone to help him with the ice as he went all the way down to Foodland on his own by his own place without help and had to carry it all the way back after.  I wouldn't have blame him for firing people but I know he has a big heart inside and couldn't do that. 2 people could of been let go. I gave Chris even to this current day if you need to remove someone then you have to and even gave him guidelines to reasons why and hopefully this helps with his decisions if he choses to come back to ChrisBOnTheWeb next week. I will speak to you tomorrow morning for the "End of The Week Updates."

My Connection To ChrisBOnTheWeb

                Chris and I have quite a history with each other. I was there between 2009  and 2012 which I was involved with his former team the one he's mentioned he's despised all these years cause of the drama that went on behind the scenes and I was there when it went all down with his former camera man and his camera man's now ex.  Which you all know who I am referring to as the Survivor podcast that was cancelled towards the end of April before the season was up. I was there when bunch of his team ended up quitting on him in April of 2010, less then two months prior to the series going on hiatus. 

                  I was there when someone got into the xat chat and I was only an owner and he was out of town with a group and his girlfriend, Jess at the time. I have seen him breakdown, raging, wanting to quit all the time and what not. I was like an Admin for TVPT back in the day. Now roll 10 years later, I always wanted to know what Chris made of himself so I searched The Video Projects Team, nothing whatsoever of the whereabouts of him minus his old YouTube channel which is now permanently dormant for the most part.  I looked his name up and found out he ended The Video Projects Team and moved to what he is doing now and saw he was between his management team and I joined on. I kept tabs on him between June 2015 and now to what was going on from his depression and leaving YouTube to being a successful podcaster. Now tomorrow's post I want to do a post about the truth behind TVPT how I really felt. Don't worry I will keep it clean but talk to you all tomorrow.

The CBOTW Show- New Development

             The newest development before all of Chris walking away from ChrisBOnTheWeb is he is/or was planning on bringing on 2 hosts one for Survivor 44 and Big Brother Canada. He was planning to go that route but not sure what the story is behind that podcast now whether he is still planning this or not. Like I mentioned yesterday, he's now gone, not sure how long or if he is planning to return right now. I really like the fact he wants to involved other people on The CBOTW Show and trying to grow that podcast.

              There is not much else I can say as right now he's stubborn like a mule refusing to answer private messages both outside of the group chat and in that group chat so right now I do not have the answers you guys are wanting so it is quite difficult to provide answers. I wish he wouldn't be so stubborn especially with the team. However I have known him for 10 + years and when he says he's done, he's quitting something he will be back in a week from now. I know him too well. In the meantime if I get more information, you guys will be the first to know and I will talk to you at 11 am EST for another post. 

Mark, CBOTW Team

Chris Has Gone M.I.A. from ChrisBOnTheWeb?

              Well Chris has gone M.I.A from ChrisBOnTheWeb and what do I mean by that? Well he's apparently left CBOTW and a lot has happened. I will not go into details but if that is what he wishes even for a little while then I do respect his decision and I will do the best I can to hold down the fort in the meantime. I guess I am next in charge as Larry doesn't know a lot about websites and the day to day but I know for a fact Chris is still in the team group chat at this moment and he says he's done and over ChrisBOnTheWeb yet he's still in the group and hasn't specifically told me I am taking over the community. 

               I have no clue what is going on but all I know is he's ignoring my messages right now so I am just leaving him be. Question and concerns I have what happens when it is time to upload Entertainment Man Podcast Thursday as that is his last bonus. He's said Entertainment Man has nothing to do with ChrisBOnTheWeb and same goes for the collab and The CBOTW Show. Question is where is he going to put the collab without a website or proper website so to speak.  A lot of unanswered questions he will not answer as his stubbornness is showing right now and maybe in time I will have answers what is going on with him. I will keep you guys posted but will talk to you all tomorrow morning.

Mark, CBOTW Team

End of the Week Updates [12-10-2022]

         Well another week has come to an end, it is time for another end of the week updates. It has been a strange but productive week with me only working 6 out of the 7 days this week due to my birthday but here are the updates:

Facebook: It is no secret I am back on the platform but Mark has been posting as the fan page for the last few days and I will be posting to the fan page this afternoon for the collab. You guys cannot really tell if it is him or I posting tho. I will try and stream in the afternoon for an hour maybe show you guys what I've been doing on my spare time on my server perhaps. 

Entertainment Man Podcast: Between recording episodes to complete this season in general as it's been a foot race to the end game for this year and generally this time of the year is a busy one wrapping things up for the podcast and getting ready for the next year.

         Anyways that is the post for today, not much to report. Minus one last collab being posted up for the year this afternoon but other then that Entertainment Man Podcast is the focus and will get into detail on Monday about that what my plan is right now but enjoy the rest of the weekend I will talk to you on Monday.

17 Years Doing Online Media! [What a Journey It's Been!]

             17 years.... Wow! I started this journey 17 years ago at the age of 20. I am now 37 years old and now in my 8th year of ChrisBOnTheWeb and closing in to breaking "The Video Projects Team" number of days it ran which is 3,261 days which in the next 10 months that will be a reality. My goal is to reach that 10 year mark and still is a goal to this day. I am totally off topic aren't I? When I started this journey, I was very inexperienced and very immature and had no idea what on earth I was doing. 

               However 17 years later I have learned a lot not just the coding side of things but learning what works and making the correct decisions that will make me a success. I know the last 2 years has been rough but finally got the hang of things and I just gotta find the right people to be involved with the website. Another 3 years and I hit 20 years in online media and 8 till the 25th anniversary. Either way it's been an adventure on it's own and weaving through all the ups and down being a content creator gives but in the end it is very rewarding in the end and I look forward to the years coming. I promise to have my favourite drink and celebrate today this journey that I have been on and I look forward to the next year and many years to come and I will talk to you all tomorrow.

More Information on The CBOTW Show

             I know nothing has been said much but this is what we can tell you guys as of right now about The CBOTW Show:

Platforms it is on: The CBOTW Show will be on only ChrisBOnTheWeb.com & ITunes to start with. Starting small and slow on things. There is no plans for YouTube, I feel like it is more appropriate for Audio ONLY and help grow ChrisBOnTheWeb.com even more.

How Often will it go up:  That is up in the air. Larry and I will be sporadic as we are currently still focused on Power Rangers Collab as we are still currently under contract with that podcast and once that finishes, we transition to The CBOTW Show full time. 

What is planned to be covered on there? Right now TV Shows and Movies and Power Rangers Movies will and is on top of our list there has been talk on other Reality TV series and trying it out again but taking time to think about it.

Finally When Is This Starting? I am holding on to that announcement for right now. We do know when Larry and I are starting but if other shows pop up then we have to decide on that. 

              That is the post for today, I will talk to you guys tomorrow for another post.

Chris

Big Thank-You To My Team!

             A BIG thank-you to my entire team, Mark & Larry for covering for me while I was in Facebook Jail! Without them, ChrisBOnTheWeb wouldn't have ran as smooth as it did, well minus the fan page being inactive for a month but I assure you we are back up and running and only lost 1 follower on there and we kind of know who it was but that's not the point. 

             The point is we are back to normal and as of this morning posting regular content links on there. Please give us some time to acclimate back to the Facebook community and I give Mark a crash course on how to run the page and the ins and out of the fan page as he never had to deal with The Video Projects Team fan page and not even sure if we had one in 2009 and I think it wasn't till 2011 or 2012 when we actually made one for the former team we had. Anyways we just need time and on Monday, I will have to add Larry to the Moderator list on there too. However that is the post for today and I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Minecraft and Stardew Valley Updates

              So I have built a little production village as I have built random islands to put villagers on to see how long they can last like on the TV Show Survivor. Also I have torn the old village down in the main hub with the railways and built a working barn for the animals and seems to work well and looks great. Also the Garden centre was realigned inside as the glass building was extended a bit and everything now looks amazing! I have also got one apartment building room or apartment built to see what it looks like and I truly like it.

              Stardew Valley, I have made some progress. One day I made 36,434 dollars from Pumpkin and Corn but obviously spent it on stuff as I made another barn so I can get more animals in there which I still gotta do. I am currently in winter season and only crops is in the green house or as I call it the garden centre. Not sure what other animals I can put on there but will see in time. I wanna add a mill and a slime hutch eventually but will take time. I plan on saving up for right now. Anyways that is the post for today, I will talk to you all tomorrow.

Birthday Today & Interim Manager Role

               I know a lot has gone on with ChrisBOnTheWeb in the last month. With Mark taking the reigns twice cause of a quit on top of my team changes being made in the last month. Yes he's Interim Manager and this is his test. As you know my management team has been shook up so many times in the last 2 years during this pandemic to a point, I had to let people go for not pulling their weight on the podcast to people just quitting especially this year not even finishing the season out. That's another blog post for this week. 

             Other note, today is my 37th birthday. Yeah I've become an old man now. 3 years till the big 4-0. Not doing too much today, going out for lunch with a friend, coming home to celebrate with my parents. Will be seeing my niece and nephew, brother hopefully but even writing this Sunday morning it is tough to tell cause the kids have hockey practice at 6 pm which is very important. Anyways that is the post for today and I am going to move the end of the week updates to Saturday as Friday, I am doing a special 17 year post in Online Media. I will talk to you all tomorrow.

End of The Week Updates [12-02-2022]

              Another week has gone by and it time for another end of the week updates. Been a very topsy turvy week here at studio but I think, I have things very much under control but here are the updates:

Website: Mark, Larry and I did some changes to the website as you know, there is a full bio of my entire journey in media for almost the last 17 years I have been doing this. Also the Schedule has been updated as there is no events remaining for this year as I am unable to go due to my mom recovering from knee surgery still which is understandable. Frequently Asked Questions was way out of date and hasn't been updated in over a year probably so we updated it. 

Entertainment Man Podcast: With the season slowly wrapping up as I said on my Instagram Stories this week, if I am not getting a request after the 12th which is a Monday, I will be closing out interview requests and will be a topic for the end of the year. Details for when requests open again are coming on Finale week for the podcast. 

            That is about it for updates for the week, I gave you enough information on the collab and I cannot wait for the next few weeks as things slowly wrap up and I can officially start working on things for 2023. I will talk to you all on Monday, have a great weekend!

Chris

Chris

Not 100% sure on the plan for The CBOTW Show...

                As you all know The CBOTW Show is returning and I have some things ironed out in the back of my head but the contents of the podcast what I want to cover and how to try and do something once a month but right now it is sporadic. I have spoken about even Survivor recap but would have to find someone to do it as right now I am all tied up with Entertainment Man Podcast, Power Rangers Collab and now running the day to day operations of The CBOTW Show. I am not going to rush it really. I also considered doing Big Brother and Big Brother Canada recaps again just keep it a week but there will be terms with it. 

              I mean you will be in charge of editing the episodes, have a computer laptop, good microphone as I can say it will be Audio ONLY and there will be no Video (YouTube) in the mix this time around as I already have one to run as it is. However, you want to make a deal I'd consider it but for right now it will be Audio ONLY at this time.  It is better then video but don't get me wrong its done just fine for Entertainment Man. Anyways I do not know the direction to go yet and we have 6 months till launch, but maybe sooner? If it is 6 months, you can do the math and figure out when the initial start is. I will talk to you all tomorrow for another podcast.

I Was Stressed Out!

               I was stressed out as the title says. For once it's nothing to do with ChrisBOnTheWeb for once. It's more IRL stuff going on here in Ontario Canada to a point, I am stressed out from arguing, stressed out from worrying about my friends. This weekend I just snapped and ended up blowing off a phone call with a friend and it hasn't happened like this in about a month now where I just didn't wanna talk to anyone. Maybe right now I just need my space to be on my own. I am not going anywhere as of right now and I probably fear that Larry will wanna get together for a hangout which as you know production for Dino Charge is on hold till January and at some point I will get to it and the way I figured it out in my head I should have it done by Christmas.

              That is besides the point that I wanna make, the point is for once it isn't about ChrisBOnTheWeb, it's just personal stuff going on that has been worrying and stressing out right now. Don't get me wrong, I am excited for 2023 and the next season of Entertainment Man Podcast, Power Rangers Collab wrapping up it's last full year of seasons before we get into one offs that we wanna do and of course The CBOTW Show as well. Friday, Saturday and Sunday, I just didn't do anything, I fiddled with the website and played video games. However, today I am back to editing grind and getting all the seasons done by end of this weekend so I can type and maybe we could possibly still record. Anyways that is my post, I will talk to you all tomorrow!

Chris

End of The Week Updates [11-25-2022]

            Another week has gone by and it is time for the end of the week updates. Not much really to report but here is the only two things I have listed for this week at the most:

Website: There are plans for the contact page and FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) will be under a major update in the New Year once things start to settle down on Dino Charge and Super Dino Charge, I can start focusing on the website a tad more and put out the updates it needs. Also the About needs some needed updates, with The CBOTW Show back in the picture, it needs to be redone and fixed.

Power Rangers Collab: As you know we have a backlog in episodes right now. I have decided to take some time away from the collab especially right now with the passing of Jason David Frank, it has affected me and a lot of us fans. Going to miss him. I will be posting the Megaforce and Super Megaforce collabs soon and will let you guys know soon.

            Anyways those are the updates, like I said not much in the way of updates this week, just editing and prep work that is going into the content and the website. Anyways have a great weekend and I will talk to you all Monday!

Chris
