Alright folks, it's that time of year again, to look back and rank the best games I played this year.

I played a grand total of 14 games that achieved 1.0 release in 2023, so for once, I had to separate some chaff from the wheat. Same categories as last year. Let's go!

BEST YESTERYEAR GAME

Extra Life 2023 Game Day is this Saturday, and as I've said before, I don't have a lot of hope for meeting my $1000 goal this year.

But nonetheless, I feel I should offer some sort of incentive for donors to help me get to that goal.

So, if I somehow get to $1000 this year, I will purchase the following:

I am tired right now.

How tired? Near the end of the signing, someone handed me a copy of Shadow of an Empire to sign, and I asked them if they wanted a name to go with it. They gave me a name sort of like “Dave.” I said “And how do you spell that?” Puzzled, they spelled it out.

Where I am, it's 6 pm and that means in half an hour the Super Bowl will begin.
Philidelphia Eagles vs Kansas City Chiefs, who are you rooting for?
Personally, I'm rooting for the Eagles. Although I wouldn't mind if the Chiefs won too.

Alright! Announcement time!

I will be attending Mare Fair 2023 next week! I'll be there for the entire con, and, most exciting of all...

I'm hosting a panel!

My panel, "Stranger Than Fimfiction", will be on Saturday the 30th from 1:30 PM to 3:30 PM! On it I will be discussing writing, giving advice, and sharing the whole process of working on pony fics! The synopsis to it can be found below:

I'm back home from Ciderfest 2023, and it was something. As always, the panels were great, I got to talk with and see some very cool people. It's what's expected, but I love it each and every time I come.

The big new thing was that I got to sell my book there. It was at the After Dark Vendor Hall and I even got to work and help run the AD Bookstore on my first night there. I went in, bringing twenty copies of Pinkamena: Beasts , and hoping I'd be able to even sell five.

Whether it's getting and giving presents, hanging out with loved ones, or the joy it fills you with, Christmas will always be the best time of the year for anybody!

Just out of curiosity, which non-classic Christmas songs listed here do you like more and why?

And by a year, I mean a year's worth of anime!
I could do some self reflection here about the year that's past in the next few days, but I'll actually do that when the year passes. I turned 28 last Tuesday, and rather than dwell on my feelings about important things, I'd like to talk about my hobby(?) of 15 or so years of watching weekly anime. So, let me take you back to January of this year.

It happened again today in Texas (and other parts of 'Murka).

Hello everyone, this is Grand-Galvatron and I am here to say that 2022 has officially come to an end, and 2023 has officially begun.

I hope that 2023 turns out to be a much sweller year than 2022 was.

This is Grand-Galvatron, sighing off, good night everyone.

Happy New Year lads and ladies, it's been quite a years. Can't wait for what 2023 brings!

Also, Chapter 6 of The Slash Of Truth is on its way. It's going to be a short chapter compared to others.

With the help of the Return YouTube Dislike extension, it currently has a total of 1.4 million dislikes. Talk about a big oof!

Now that the schedule has been released, I can announce that—in addition to providing a few stories for the convention's Interactive Storytelling event—I will be hosting a panel at Ponyville Ciderfest. It is my first panel too. I am extremely nervous, but also excited.

Hey y'all! Took a little break from the drama to write something cute and silly.

A new year, and with it comes new opportunity, new challenges, new situations, and more of the same. But we can all work to make the best of what is, strive for what could be, and remember fondly what was. We can all work to improve ourselves and pick ourselves up when we stumble, and help others when they fall.
Good bye 2022, and with it the negative.
Hello 2023, and let's see what we've got coming.

Well, after planning, preparing, and lining up schedules, it's looking like my Hot Ones Challenge is happening tomorrow evening.

After that, I'm hoping it won't take very long to edit into something watchable. I figured this way was better than doing a spice challenge live for Extra Life 2021, where I hastily angled my webcam and it was 20 minutes of my stomach and the table.

I went to EFNW again this year! Was so much fun, even if my health grated on me being able to do all I wanted to. RIP Ponystock and most of Saturday </3 (sorry to my friends).

And, I was able to compete in the Iron Author competition!
