(It is totally possible that deep-rock-whatever is what someone was playing in the background during a charity stream that I actually did watch live because of the guest they were talking to... during the *single half-hour* slot that I tuned in.)

... I think it's only counting stuff watched actually live, where most of my twitch viewing is on catchup? so it's taking every time it auto-forwarded me to something live at the end of a video and claiming those few minutes as my "real" viewings?

I have so many amazing games that I've never touched it feels wrong to buy something new I might not play. Maybe I should buy BAD games? (Technically I did this once already this sale. Not a bad game actually but one that I *know* is too hard for me to ever play, but it's cool and underrated so)

(Unlike most people, no, I cannot simply look at my library to see what's new. I am INUNDATED with free games due to my curation work. I should probably do writeups on Patreon on what I *buy* instead of just what I *play*, simply so I can remember them for later...)

I often kind of wish I could host CYOA streams where I read books and people vote on what choice I should make, but I don't have the energy to actually organise a following to make that happen, and I'm not sure if I'd get in trouble for it.

I have a lot of vintage gamebooks many of which are entertaining disasters :D I did find another copy of this for $35 eventually, missing some of the character sheets but I have scans of those, so I went with that.

I found one for $35 eventually, missing a bonus piece that I have scans of to replace, and decided that was good enough.
I do own a ton of 1e and 2e material but not much Forgotten Realms specifically. I think i may have a Harper guide? but that was bought back at the time so :D
