So - we'll be webcasting Wednesday night but the landscape of Wednesday night might be weird. NO matter what happens, assuming no-one assaults the internet's infrastructure in a meaningful way (knock on wood), we'll be online. For our sanity, for yours. Join us if you're able. Definitely join us if you need to.
I'm kind of assuming that with a literal division's worth of National Guard on the job the Inauguration should go off sans excitement, but I have long ago learned never to underestimate the extremes of my fellow humans' ingenuity or stupidity when it comes to causing havoc. Friends in DC especially - do be cautious please.
*Okay, so putting "raided" in quotes shows that I'm soooo uncool, right? Not savvy in the ways of Twitch, sa sa? NO - I'm helping YOU in case YOU'RE not savvy!
"Raiding" means Iain gathered up everyone watching HIS stream and brought them all over to MY stream and contrary to how that normally works (everyone storms into the comments says "hi" and wanders off) it resulted in a LOT of them sticking around to the end of the open mic (3am their time). It pushed my channel to "Affiliate" status in one fell swoop - so it actually helped us out a LOT.
And then I've got to thank Kerri (my Twitch wizard - "Twizzard") for explaining what the Hell was happening!
