Weekly Rambling #23

Hello everyone.

It is two weeks until I start watching League of Legends again. The LEC starts back June the 8th and the LCS starts a week after. Until then my weekends are a bit uneventful. I only watch these two regions. I do not play LOL at all. I've only ever played it a little bit. Too many champions to learn and the equipment is plentiful and gets changed too much for me. 

I did watch Starcraft back in the day live from Korea. This was before I had the stroke so things were a bit easier. I was also in my 40's at the time. Waking up early was easier then. Nowadays I prefer being on a "schedule" and keeping to it. Things seem to be better if I do things at a certain time each day. I'm not perfectly rigid, but I do most things within a certain time window. This keeps me from missing out on doing important things. 

Still doing OOTP 25 Perfect Team. Currently stuck in Silver League which is a bit confusing as I have a roster of Diamonds and Perfects. This season two of my Perfects are struggling. I have yet to find the right combination of players to get back to Gold League. That is my long-term goal. I made it to Gold League early on before people passed me up and I got relegated back to Silver. If I were to get relegated again OR make it back to Gold, I would probably stop playing.

 

F1 Manager 2024 comes out in July. I plan to create a team and play it for several in game years. It does seem like fun to try to build a new team from scratch and develop it. My goal for that is top three. Winning a Constructors championship would be ideal but is probably too hard for me.

FM24 is a game I watch quite a bit of YouTube videos of. I am trying to learn how to play the game so I won't get fired. As an American who did not play the game and I don't really watch real soccer, I don't truly understand the innards of the game. I do understand the basics. I hope that by the time FM25 gets released that I will have at least a basic understanding of how FM works. This ideally would allow me to do a YouTube series of FM and have it last a good length of time. 

With F1 Manager and FM25 being my games along with doing recaps of the LEC and the LCS along with LOL Worlds my YouTube channel should be busy for the rest of the year. Hopefully I will get a join button sometime this year and 2025 will see the growth of the channel to the point where it will be monetized.

Honestly, it sucks having an income of zero. I do get SNAP benefits to cover my food costs and I have Medicaid which covers my Medical expenses. I will eventually run out of the insurance money from my mother. Thankfully, the house is paid for as is the vehicle. It would be nice to have a small steady income.

As far as crypto goes, all I do is Hodl what I have. It was acquired some time ago. 

 

Thanks for reading.
