Hello Bunnies!

I hope that you are all well and enjoying good food and friends!

For different reasons I have been unable to give updates in the manner that I would have liked to, so I hope this at least serves as a small window into what has been going on with our little family.

We continue to tend to family matters out here in France with Raven and the girls. As we are in a more rural area, we have had many adventures involving hornets, fires, cows, etc. that have kept things exciting. We have also met some of the most supportive and welcoming people that one could possibly hope to encounter in a single lifetime! Overall, we have been very busy and things seem to look like they will continue to be so for a bit.

I had originally intended to stream a couple of weeks ago and even succeeded in cobbling together a mobile-ish version of my streaming setup. My hope was that I could hang out with the Bunnies for the release of Star Wars: Zero Company, but the necessary environment for a stream didn't fully materialize. The truth is that we currently have access to the resources for only one of us to work remotely and Raven's job is our main source of income. As such, it made sense to secure her ability to work while we continue to look for a solution to record/stream for me. (I can't wait to check out Zero Company with the Bunnies for the first time. I have been avoiding news about it as best as I can)

I am really sorry that I haven't been there for all of you lately and I can't wait to see you all again when things solidify. I will continue to update here as things progress.

Much Love,
HB

Hello Bunnies!

I have a quick update regarding returning to streaming next week (on the 24th of August).

The temporary location that I was hoping to use has unfortunately fallen through. I'm still working towards getting back online as soon as is possible, but I am not confident that I will be able to start next week as I originally planned.

I will continue to update you as I look at potential places to get set up.

Much Love,
HB

Hello Bunnies!

Things have been, and continue to be, quite hectic over the course of the last month and I am sorry that I have been unable to make an announcement until now.

As you probably know, I have been tending to family matters with Raven and have been looking to get a temporary streaming setup up and running. I feel a bit like an adventurer in a video game, cobbling things together through the postal service, local stores, etc. (I am including a picture of a huge BioShock statue at one of the local electronic stores)

We think we have a lead on a temporary location that might put up with a very Animated American in the EU evening, but things will be a bit fluid until I can return to the United States, so thank you for bearing with me!

That having been said, I am hoping to start streaming again on the 24th of August at a slightly different time of 10AM PDT with our Roguetech campaign. This should give us some time to tweak things prior to the Thursday (27th of August) launch of Star Wars: Zero Company.

I hope everyone is doing well and I look forward to seeing you all soon!

Much Love,
HB

Hello Bunnies,

Due to some family events, I am currently in the process of moving and am estimating that I will be away from streaming for a little over a month.

I will default to posting updates to the Bunny League Discord as I learn more and can fine-tune that estimate further. That having been said, more definitive notes will reach Youtube as well.

Please know that I will miss you all greatly as you have become a valuable part of my daily life/process. I look forward to when I can stream for everyone again!

Much Love,
HB

Jade (one of our kitties) is in need of professional attention. As such, I am canceling the stream for today.

(If I get back in a reasonable amount of time and she has stabilized, then I will update if I am able to run a truncated stream)

Please accept my apologies for the last minute update.

Update:
We are back and we are giving Jade some time to rest. I will hop on for a truncated stream in a bit.

No pressure to show up. I appreciate everyone's flexibility!

tl;dr:
I wanted to let Bunnies know that I am going to be streaming the new DLC release of Chaos Reign (MW5) instead of Mechanicus II this week. In all honesty, I lost track of the DLC release date when I scheduled out Mechanicus II. (I am almost positive that it was due to my not wearing the Bunny Neurohelmet at the time!)

Context:
I do my best to announce a schedule that specifies game titles and when we will visit them.

I do this as an attempt to respect every Bunny's time as I can appreciate that streaming is a two-way street and, as much as I prepare for a stream, every Bunny that shows up adjusts things in their life to make that stream possible. It is something that I am grateful for and do not want to take for granted. It is important to me to be a Bunny of my word and to offer consistency in a life that is often chaotic.

This may sound obvious, but it has only recently dawned on me that a good number of the opportunities to promote the health of our channel/community arrive in direct conflict to a rigid schedule. (i.e. a publisher reaches out with immediate early access to an upcoming title) I then inevitably wrestle with my own internal rigidity and the feeling that I am breaking a promise to Bunnies by changing schedule details at the last minute.

Adaptive Solution:
I am going to try something a bit different that I hope will both allow me to offer consistency and practice flexibility.

Streaming times will stay the same: 12 PM PST (M-F)

What we will stream will be more open. (That is why I have adjusted the Twitch Schedule widget to show as "TBD" for all game title fields)

It may seem like a simple change on the outside, but I believe that it will provide me with additional opportunities to improve in a Live environment. Thank you for all of your understanding and support!

Much Love,
HB

Hello Bunnies,

In order to provide the Bunnies with the best version of me as possible, I have decided to set next week aside to decompress/recharge.

As such, I will not be streaming 4/13 - 4/17.
I will return to streams on the following week of April 20 (4/20, tee hee).

Thank you for all of your support and if you would like to contact me, I will still check Discord during that time!

Much Love,
HB

Thank you to the Bunnies for hanging out while we checked out Menace together.

I wanted to update everyone and confirm that we will be streaming tomorrow, Saturday (1/31) starting at 12PM PST if you are interested in seeing more of the game.

Once again, the VODs will remain available on Youtube so no worries if you are unable to be there live!

Much Love,
HB

Hello Bunnies!

I received a game key for the pre-launch version of Menace and am changing the title for tomorrow's Battletech stream (1/30) and replacing it with Menace. My apologies for the last minute change as I didn't anticipate getting a game key with a livestream green light attached to it.

If there is enough interest, I am thinking about putting aside stream time on Saturday (1/31) as well as I would imagine that there is a lot more than a stream's worth of content to look at since the last demo was released.

Friday (1/30): Battletech -> Menace (Pre-Launch)
Saturday (1/31): Menace (Pending)

Much Love,

Hello Bunnies!

After talking things over with my family, we have decided that it would be nice to celebrate Christmas Day together. As such, I will not be streaming this Thursday (12/25) and will return on Friday (12/26) with Battletech.

I would like to apologize for the last minute update as we originally intended to hold a Christmas Day stream.

Thank you for your understanding and I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday!

Much Love,
HB
