You're freaking welcome.

Welcome to TechSteve21.play :D

From now on, new uploads will go there and will be public so go and subscribe!

Unfortunately I cannot move all the other videos over there - and frankly I don't want to. I might re-upload certain videos though and I'm thinking of doing a massive SpeedRunners compilation if I ever get the time.

Now, this also means that you lovely lot will feature in my videos publicly and you know full well that I am not shy when it comes to taking the absolute mick out of myself and your good selves in the editing process (more the latter I'm sure you'll say!) - so I request that if you do not want to be featured in any future video, just let me know - I'll do my best to "edit around you".

So yeah... There we go.

Believe it or not, although the evidence stacks up pretty high in support of this fact, we haven't played GMod in over 2 months now. The last time that happened our social lives almost came back into existence and frankly I can't let that happen again!

So - let's get back into it, seeing as it's actually been mentioned by people other than myself more than a few times over the past few weeks...

I propose that we have a nice evening of Murder+ (with even more updates since last time! somehow!) and some Melonbomber+ and hopefully our collective ping numbers won't exceed the amount I have currently have in my bank account.

Now, three points.
First: I know The Ship was purchased for occasions such as this but according to Steam, I'm the only one that's even installed it - and as wonderful as the game is, the tutorial is a must-play before we're unleashed anywhere each other aboard that cruise liner.

Second: As shocking as this may seem, I have other friends.
I'll just let you all recover from that. I had to go outside for a few minutes myself...
And playing games with them is good fun, although we've only played Team Fortress and SpeedRunners. Twice. Anywho, (and here's the reason why I took to Steam to say all this) - unless anyone has any, and I mean ANY, objections, I would like to invite them too. No idea if they would be able to make it, but looking at the best case scenario - we'll have 6 players! And, we'll have the advantage as they would be new to Murder and Melonbomber!

If you want to "check them out" before you make your minds up, here's a link to our latest playthrough: youtube[dot]com/watch?v=MITRs8nDmHY

I'll give you until Tuesday evening to object, the more creative the better ;)

And third: As nice as Skype is - it is not designed for "gaming". Also we've found that it is very temperamental - nicht gut. When playing with the two Dans, we use something called Mumble, and boy, it is far superior! Extrememly low latency with clearer sound, lovely.
Thankfully Hamachi then allows us to have our own private voice chat server, which I have just set up successfully - so we'll need to get everyone on there before any kind of Garry gets any kind of Modifications.
We'll meet on Skype/Steam as normal first to get everyone set up.

So that's all for now - thanks for reading - have a good week :D

Firstly, thanks for reading my text and acting upon it - it's nice to know that I can manipulate your actions at the cost of 4p a go. Hehe, I kid like a baby goat (simulated or not, your choice) but thanks for reading, now keep going!

For those who do not know, the Humble Bundle is a series of bundles of games where you get to choose the price you pay for them and the proceeds can go to charity. Yes, YOU CHOOSE THE PRICE. Awesome isn't it?

These bundles are only around for a short time and hopefully you'll have noticed the word "weekly" in that link on the top line - this week's bundle is Team17!
When I got the e-mail I knew it sounded familiar but I couldn't quite put my finger on it... Then Boggy B hit me. Hit me hard. Oh yeah.

Loads of Worms games!!
Plus a new early access game (Overruled!) which looks like fun.

Anyways, my main reason for bringing your attention here is to face the fact that even though we will never stop playing GMod (please!), trying to find a new game that we can all play and enjoy and are half decent at is tricky, and could have been expensive. But not anymore!

The same long story cut not as short as I first wanted - for the teeny tiny price of $6 (that's under £4) we can try this new Overruled! game (which retails at £10 each alone!!) plus add DLC to Worms Revolution and obtain a truck-load of other Worms games that can buffer up an otherwise empty games library :D

I've already done this, hence the "Announcement" but I don't want to pressure any of you into anything - but come on. It's less than £4. If you really want, I'll gift it to you for an early Christmas present - I'm serious, if you actually want me to I'm more than happy to get it on your behalf :)

Check out the link right at the very top for all the information and as I splurged out on F1 2014, I'll be on Steam every day to respond to comments/questions left here. Thank you, and have a nice day :D

[Almost forgot: the offer disappears next Thursday! (20th Nov)]

The spare-time filling cloud that hangs over me, that goes by the minimilistic name of "Plus" has gotten its grubby mitts on another one of Garry's finest gamemodes...

That's right - we now have Melonbomber+!

Here's the workshop page, subscribe to it in preparation of our next game-night: http://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=299533258

And here's a short list of things you can expect from my second proud creation/alteration:
- Option to have all boxes leave a powerup (idea credit goes to Rhys)
- The SFX from the gameplay videos that start and end each round are now in the game itself
- Each powerup now has its own pickup noise
- Descriptions for the powerups have been altered
- The 'skull' icon on the scoreboard has been replaced with something less grim
- Rounds start in 3 seconds and provide a random "GO!" message to mix things up a bit
- (From the original creator) Killfeed now says who killed who instead of always saying "Someone killed themselves"
- (From the original creator) Ragdolls are now thrown from the arena upon death rather than just dropping to the ground
I think that's it...

TL;DR - Melonbomber+ has been made, download it :D

And it feels good doesn't it?
We've got a new logo! Isn't it pretty?
Yes. The answer is yes.
Our YouTube video thumbnails have also had a fresh lick of Photoshop/PowerPoint all over them to give them a bit of personality that we as a 3/4/5-some often fail to provide :P

That is really all.
Thanks for reading :D
