Yesterday, a few minutes past 2, my son was born. It is our firstborn so I’ve not experienced anything like this before, so as you can imagine, it is surreal.
The birth was by far the most traumatic thing I have ever experienced and I wasn’t even really doing anything??
My partner sounded like she was dying for a good chunk of the time and I felt so bad for her I felt sick, for hours and hours, it was torture.
Also, you know that miniarc in JoJo Diamo...

AY, BEFORE WATCHING, READ;
The final part of EP30 is next.
This is not the conclusion.
...
That is all you can watch now.
________________________________
This battle has been in the making for literally years and was a fucker to edit.
I really hope it is easy enough to follow and also entertaining.
This entire battle as it was fought on Tabletop Sim was recorded for posterity and I might just release it after EP30 has been fully concluded.
The battle,...

Remember back when videos were, like, 10 minutes long?
Let's try that again, see if you like it.
I've been working non-stop on EP30 every day for a while now and it is EXTREMELY heavy in the same way EP26 was.
Animating tabletop battles is a lot of fun and very rewarding but it's also very, very demanding of both my patience and my computer.
Now, since it is taking me so much time and since I have a vested interest in you guys actually seeing my content, I've dec...

I haven’t updated in a good while. Sorry about that, I’ve been working on EP30 with intent to release part of it right here. I wanted to save doing an update ’til the part was done but its still not all finished up and I felt I had taken a bit too much time since the last update so I’m throwing this wretched little inbetweener at you now.
So anyway yeah EP30 is coming along, it is quite intense, a lot of stuff going on, its another tabletop battle thing like ...

So, I have been experimenting with this vox-log format further...
... in the shape of a video in the ever-dreaded top ten format.
Vile and heinous creature, Alfabusa, unironic enjoyer of top tens.
I have tried to create something as simplistic as can be whilst still being something I enjoy. Something that could be put together on a regular basis without much issue.
Now, there was issue anyway, I have been quite distracted, but thanks to the rec...

I'm really sorry to immediately have to fuck up the schedule BUT I want to push the deadline for EP29 up by a couple of more days. The reason for this is because I am not happy with some of the visuals, there's still a slew of quality controls to be made and I just feel like my brain is swelling thinking about having to do everything I want to do in just a single day, alongside all the other videos I have to prepare.
I want to make the new release date the 9th, so next week.<...

I'll be honest, I've been quite stressed as of late. Been stuck in my brain with EP29 too long and I wish it RELEASED like a SOUL from the entrapment of ROTTED FLESH.
But it has been alleviated a bit now with the release of the new Short.
I'm very happy it was received well (not to speak of Takahata's reaction, since he wrote and voiced most of it). Releasing stuff that people like always calms me down a day or two after release (the day of the release I am just a nauseou...

Today I have decided to go ahead with a short and SACCHARINE update. Exciting.
First off, I am working on EP29, of course.
And the progress is brilliant! I have managed to get more done these past two weeks than any other time this year.
Not only have I managed to finish up around 9 minutes of animation, but I've also managed to make some progress on a new audiodrama (one starring Boy, as per multiple requests) and I've finally begun proper work on a short that has sat ...

It's been a pretty good while since my last update. I am sorry about that.
This kind of went into the procrastination pile whilst I've feverishly tried to put together EP29, help with the RPG, writing scripts for a few different projects (some based on your suggestions from the last update), as well as hosting a Necromunda campaign and taking care of the house and the dogs and all that life entails.
But now I'm forcing myself to just get it over with before I have to go va...

As you may have noticed, I released two videos recently!
Or, well, one episode of BRO TRIP and one random audiodrama thing.
I am going to start work proper on EP29 pretty soon, but 'til then, I figured I'd also throw together a quick audiodrama again because, honestly? Pretty easy to put together.
However, I am out of ideas at the moment.
So I figured I'd come to you, the people keeping me alive, if you'd be interested in suggesting some ideas for a future voxlog tha...

It has been over a month since the last update. Sorry about that.
Been a lot lately. I've been working as per usual, but the times have affected us.
My significant other was unfortunarely infected by covid-19 and has been sick for a few weeks. I too have definitely been struck, I get minor symptoms now and again but nothing has broken out. In addition, due to some very personal reasons I cannot talk about (at least yet), the worry about the infection has only been exacerba...

So I decided to put together one of these again on a whim.
Based on what most every one of you told me to do, I've decided to have this be uploaded here on Patreon and have it remain for about a week! I'll release a subtitled version publicly later.
This vox-log covers Wamuudes and a squad of Oblivion Knights heading down into the Extolled Canals of Our Emperor’s Undesired (the Emperor's Sewers) for a routine check.
I have specifically devised this to be very...

Update time.
As prophecized, the move has occured.
I am right now sitting in my childhood home as the MASTER of the house, content and at peace. We've focused mostly on the move and the house the past month, got most of the furniture in, started settling in nicely, I've even started cutting wood for the fireplace.
Truly blessed......
However, this does of course not mean I've neglected work.

So, update.
As I told you last time, throughout the month of February I have been focused almost solely on scripts. With this, a few things have gone down;
1. I managed to finish the first drafts for the scripts of both EP29 and 30.
2. I've written a whole new Plot-Bible and forced the entire cast of writers and editors to go through it with me page by page.
3. I commissioned nine other people who've helped me write scripts in the past to aid me more thoroug...

As you might've noticed, EP28 of TTS is now released.

Sorry about a slightly late update. I've had a birthday this weekend so I've been eating way too much cake and drinking exactly the right amount of bacardi instead of writing updates.
This shame is mine to carry.
But, oh BOY, I've made some nice progress on EP28 since the last update.
As I expected, putting together this is taking so much less time than putting together my last video did.

I am now working on EP28, hurray.
Since the last update I've managed to finish up the audio for the episode, on record time I might add, and the episode is going to be just over 30 minutes long this time around.
Yeah, that's not as long as the last few episodes but this is entirely intentional.
The episodes being about 30 minutes long is what I'll be aiming for going forward.
Also worth mentioning is of course that I already finished up about 10 minutes worth of this...

In the upcoming week I am going to work my organs into paste, trying my best to finish up the video once and for all. With any hope, it'll be done within the next week.
I will simply tell you if it quite isn't.

So, okay, I don't have a lot to update you on other than the fact that this monster is now closing in on being done.
I am currently 35 minutes away from being finished rendering all of the throneroom scenes and will thus be focused on fighting the remaining segments with both computers. After that I am going to do my very best to finish this beast up for you as soon as possible so you may finally consume and judge it....
