So, I’m sure you’ve noticed now that the links below the stream are now listed as channels. Channels One and Two to be exact. One is our normal channel where all the scheduled streams will go. Nothing really new to announce about that.

This all means that there’s a second channel. Channel Two. What the fuck do we need another channel for? Well, I’ll tell you. Channel Two is where streamers will go to test shit out. That way they can do so without shitting up the main stream. The other, main reason for Channel Two, is so that we can invite just about anyone to stream there. New streamers will all be allowed to stream on Channel Two whenever they want. That way they don’t have to do so on their own channels, splitting the chat up and things. Also it makes it easier for new streamers to get a feel for how everything works. Most probably all will graduate to a timeslot on Channel One from there after a bit of time.

Switching between channels is easy, just click the “One” or “Two” links under the stream embed.

Let me know what you think of the idea, and if you ever want to stream there, or try to stream there. Dicks, the usual, you know.

Let Krisper know which of the games on the poll you want him to play next!

Go vote. VOTE OR DIE MUTHA FUCKA MUTHA FUCKA VOTE OR DIE.

Sorry for not being around last night. I was out drinking and hanging around. You know, things that real people do on a Friday night.

That being said, I’m not sure if I will drunk night tonight as I have to get up really early tomorrow morning. I will keep you informed through Twitter and all that if I am going to do so or not. If you don’t hear anything else from me for the rest of the night, assume that there is no drunk stream. I’ve taken it off the schedule just in case.

That said, maybe Mumble will get wasted and not get very far in another Castlevania for you. Have a good night!

Seawee wants to know if people want a break from Persona 4 or not. So, we’ve made a poll. Your choices are that he should continue to play Persona 4, or should he take a short break from Persona 4 to play Deus Ex. Go ahead and enter your vote at the top of the page!

Edit: Here’s a link for those of you who can’t hit F5 on the page: http://www.kuoushi.com/popup.php?poll=30

Edit: Looks like Deus Ex won the poll. Seawee will start playing Deus Ex for now, and then continue Persona 4 later!

I removed the old stream history calendar from the menu. Why is that? Well, it’s on the sidebar to the right now! You’ll find it directly under the Twitter updates. The sidebar is getting a bit crowded so I probably won’t add anything else to it.

Speaking of that, any preferences on the ordering of the sidebar? I’ve had a request to allow users to set the order on a per-account basis, which I might do way later. For now though, I’ll just ask and see what everyone wants.

Personally, Twitter has news about the site and the stream so I think that should be near the top. As well as the links so they’re easier for people to find. I know everyone wants to know where they can find Kuoushi.com T-shirts and thongs as fast as they can.

Post replies in here, let me know.

OH ALSO I JUST USED THE NEW POST EDITING FUNCTION TO EDIT THIS POST. MOUSE OVER ANY POST YOU’VE MADE TO INSTALL ULTRA CAPSLOCK POST EDITING INTO YOUR POSTS.

So, you’ll maybe notice that you can now click on the user names you see around the site. I coded some basic user pages in that are not entirely useful yet, but will hopefully become more so as time goes on. Right now they just say if you’re a user or a streamer, show off your last 5 posts and your last 10 streams if you’re a streamer.

That is, of course, only if you’re actually putting your streams into the DB, you silly streamers! Actually, you couldn’t up until now and I just fixed the problem.

Anyway, KuouBook.com is coming along!

Due to various internet issues and bandwidth limits and all that Canadian internet thing, I won’t be able to stream Metroid Prime tonight. Not sure about the drunk stream tomorrow night yet, but I will keep you posted.

Things to do during the Kuoushi timeslot instead of jacking off or whatever else it is you had planned:

1 Someone else might be streaming here at kuoushi.com.
2 Highwang might be streaming at his channel, http://www.justin.tv/highwang
3 Jack off.

Or whatever else you feel like doing.”

Maybe. The unfortunate part is that he is embracing his Australian heritage. What does that mean? Well, it means that he will be occupying the 9am-11am EST timeslot. So uh, most of us will be asleep, assuming you’re in the North American timezones. Check the schedule later, he should be updating it unlike certain other streamers.

*cough* Mumblebee *cough*

In other news, Terraria is a relatively new game, but the Kuoushi steam group has put about 480 hours into as of this post. Congratulations, we all have no life. That’s cool, only good things can come from this.

If you’re a streamer, you can now add streams and shit to the database through the Videos section. Simply go to Videos->Your Name->Normalor whatever-> and you should see a new link that says Add Game. This link will allow you to add a new game to your list of games. If you want to add a stream to a game that’s already in your list, click the game in the list, then you will see another new link called “Add Stream”. Simply click that, and enter the date and if you have one Viddler ID to the video.

Important notice, if your date is NOT formatted YYYY-MM-DD exactly, it won’t be accepted. So remember those leading zeroes, like 2011-05-05 would work, but 2011-5-5 wouldn’t.

For now you can’t edit an existing entry, but I will most likely add that functionality later. Post here if you have any questions about this.

I broke the forums last night while I was drunk-coding the site. That’s right, drunk-coding. After I ended the drunk stream I sat around for a bit, then decided to work on the site. Doing some things in the Videos section for streamers like I’ve been talking about. Letting them add streams to the DB and all that.

Well, apparently when I figured I was done with whatever it was I was working on and went to sleep, it also broke the submit button for the forums and other shit. They’re fixed now. You can post in them again.

On a fun note, I couldn’t figure out what I did wrong in that code, because I re-typed the exact same code line for line and it works now. Drunk miracles.
