Apologies, I was really supposed to post this on Friday evening.
Thank you for participating in the poll last week everyone. The tally when counted at the end of the week (from both Patreon and Twitch subscriber polls combined) was:
A replacement poll, as I think the Strawpoll website might be having trouble.

URGENT - I think Strawpoll might be choking. Instead I'm used Patreon's own poll system and have made a replacement here. Sorry for the inconvenience....

A proper follow up post for last nights bullshittery episode. Hi there folks :)
So this last week has been one hell of a mountain to climb. As though the editing gods were punishing me for saying that Source Filmmaker was "surprisingly easy". For the program decided it was ...

Good evening folks. I hope you're having a smooth start to your week. Another editing update.
Last post I mentioned that I was going to spend some time doing that D&D cartoon. I had three tasks in mind:
Good afternoon folks. I hope you're having a nice weekend.
So over here, having finished that last bullshittery, I took a short weekend break before arriving in the midweek wondering what to edit next. Entirely accidently, I fell into some tinkering on that ancient Dungeons and Drag...

Good evening folks. Another quickie update!
The nesting process this week went very well. Despite being a bit ill with a vaccine fever in the mid-week, the light nature of the "nesting" process meant my work was unaffected.
