...By which I mean I will just keep doing what I've been doing, which is about 1 video per week or whenever I feel like it.

The main reason is that I've found a social life and have other things to do than make vids. When I do get a couple of hours of free time in the evenings or on weekends, I'll be spending it either relaxing and playing or practicing the piano / some other useful skill. So with that out of the way, here's how I feel about it all:

I really enjoyed casting TF2, and I still will on occasion. I hope I won't be so out of practice that I'm barred from casting at i49! I got to play a key role in the growth of the competitive TF2 scene that's happened over the past two years and I'm very grateful for the opportunities and the help everyone gave me. I'd always planned on being the "HuskyStarcraft" of TF2, the not-so-experienced-but-excited-and-committed-to-improving loveable goofball. I think I mostly succeeded, although recently I've been getting irritable on forums and I definitely said some stuff about cbear and djc that was wrong. That aside, I had hoped that after a couple of years of casting, I'd be able to get up to something like $1000 a month in YouTube money. I am barely at a tenth of that - my best month was December at $250, and that was mainly because of my MvM Wave 666 video (which is at 175k views by the way!!!). If I had gotten up to that point, I would have done some serious evaluation about how to step into life as an entertainer rather than life as an accountant with management aspirations.

I know I'm not quick enough on my feet to be a great comedian or entertainer on most days. This may be due to a very long-term erosion of confidence or maybe I'm just not very smart. Nonetheless, I'm glad I could bring enjoyment to thousands of viewers through TF2 casting. To everyone who ever cracked a smile at one of my idiotic off-topic ramblings, thanks for watching. I'll still post videos, but it will probably never be daily again, and I'll be branching out to other games depending on what I'm playing at the time.

I'm hesitant to give specific shout-outs because there are so many people I want to thank that I'm almost guaranteed to miss someone. If I do, just post something here and tell me I'm a bad person. With that disclaimer out of the way, thanks to:

TLDR: I'm still making vids, just not very often. <3
