I've had a few offers lately of people wanting to pile resources (money) into helping me do more giveaways and help people more. While appreciated, and I'm not against it, I also want to remind that once I earn money on posting here, 100% of that money will go to OctoAID here on Twitter and is a FREE way to help me help others. And what is OctoAID? EVERY single follower on Twitter with regular engagement (replies now and then to posts) will have access to it, and it's as much as I can afford (preferably $100 per person, just like on Twitch). It's an emergency fund, not a loan, I provide people who need help. It's for people who can't get help from friends, family, relatives or another source first. Right now I offer this to everyone who watches my Twitch streams regularly, but I'd love to bring it over here too. And all it requires of people here is just to keep enjoying what I post. 😁 This screenshot shows how close it is. While 65K "verified home timeline" impressions may seem far away, I only started posting 1½ month ago and there's more and more of you each day so we might hit that late this year or early next year at this rate. 😀

An important thing to remember as #smallstreamers is that you're bigger than you think you are in most cases. You got 5 viewers? More than 80% never have that. Got 10? Congrats, bigger than 90% of the platform! 20? You're now in the top 1%! Be proud, that's huge! 😁

A thing I want to point out to you #smallstreamers that is insane: You've made me go semi-viral DAILY the past 1½ month, and we're almost up to 7000 followers here on Twitter from having been at 5300 1½ month ago. ALL I ever asked is for YOU to introduce yourselves to ME so I could follow YOU, NO FOLLOW OF ME REQUIRED! Admittedly, due to Twitch having a follow cap of 2000 and like 800 of you all following me on Twitch, I do have to prioritize a bit with who I follow there otherwise I have to unfollow and refollow people daily eventually. So I have it at the moment that 4 out of 5 I follow also followed me on Twitch (UNPROMPTED) but at least 1 should be someone I just want to follow because you seem like a cool person. I WANT TO ADD THOUGH, I have a notepad filled with like 50 names at this point and it's growing because I want to make sure I write down the names of all the lovely people introducing themselves here and I regularly browse through that list so I can meet you that way too. 😁 This doesn't mean you should follow me on Twitch in the hopes I follow you, you'll still be in my notepad at the very least. But still, thank you to those of you kind enough to follow me since it lets me keep up with you that way too (algorithm prioritizes your messages) and I hope I'm able to return that support in any form or way I can! ♥️

Just going to the store real quick and then I'm diving in to catch up to all of your messages I haven't had a chance to respond to yet! 😁 Also, just noticed, THANK YOU FOR PASSING 6700 FOLLOWERS!? Going to give away $100 once we pass 7000, will it happen this month!? 🤯

Just a heads up #smallstreamers that there'll be a Switch 2 giveaway starting in about 10 days to thank for the crazy support you've been giving here and on Twitch! It's going to have multiple entries possible, and one can be gotten through Twitter and extra tickets via being a follower on Twitch, and extra if you watch the streams. 😁 The idea is to simply thank you for the support given, and the more support that is given the more tickets you get. No need to worry though, watching for extra tickets doesn't require weeks of watching, just a few hours AND that watching can be done whenever (even now). The giveaway will also be open for like 10 days because of its size. Figured I'd give this heads up, and more information will be given once it starts! 😀

Hey #smallstreamers, wish you had more games to stream but not enough money to do so? Here's some sources that should let you pick up some games for free: Itch.io (prototypes, demos, full games) PressEngine Lurkit Keymailer Hope this helps! 😁

We're live on #Twitch checking out some #indiegames RIGHT NOW! Thank you everyone for making each stream so much fun and amazing, hope I can return the happiness tenfold! 😁 twitch.tv/thorlar
