Speaker
And then we also have a special guest. Introduce yourself. Hello, I am Koala Corgi. I'm one of the staff here at Farm RPG. And in case people were wondering, I do have a Koala obsession. There are nine of them back there. And I'm wearing my favorite Koala shirt. Man, just dove right into the Koala. yeah again you go get number one out of This is true. Yeah. Staff punching bag here tonight. Um,
00:01:18
Speaker
Oh, hey, but that reminds me. Oh, yeah. It's going to start happening as soon as we start talking. Anyway, we're going to get right into it. We're going to pull the swear jar right away while we bear them. Call a corgi swear jar right away. Doom lizard. Hey, Doom lizard. Message me and I will.
00:01:36
Speaker
send you your gold. thats That's not me saying message me the name Doom Lizard and I'll send you gold. It means the person named Doom Lizard needs to message me.
Funny Anecdote: Google Invoices
00:01:45
Speaker
I got a couple of messages last week that had the other person's name in it and I think they thought they were going to get the gold, which is really funny, but that's not how this works. You have to be Doom Lizard.
00:01:55
Speaker
I am loving that. And that's funny. Did you hear the story of the guy who went to jail because he figured out the accounts payable office for Google and just started mailing them invoices and they were like, cool, here's your money. And like, you got like several million dollars before Google was like, oh dollars yeah, yeah like like quite a bit of money before they were like, oh, that's ah that's not a real vendor. And now he's in jail, but still like,
00:02:23
Speaker
I mean, I love the hustle.
Listener Messages and Gold Mix-up
00:02:25
Speaker
That's really fun. I mean, that's what I'm imagining here. People just emailing and DMing Boobun being like, I am Spartacus. Free gold, please. No, they're not saying that they're this person. They're just one part. It was like, the name was like La Dida or something like that. The last one. And they, these people, I got like at least three messages. So we're just like, La Dida. And I was like,
00:02:45
Speaker
So I must've said, hey, message me la di da and I will send you this call. That's not how that works. And first of all, good job on the Hustle podcast listeners. Yeah, we like it.
Koalas and Corgis in Farm RPG
00:02:55
Speaker
I think you should message Buban even more this time. Oh, great. Yes, please. You should do it. Yeah. Okay. Message me. See what happens. Uh, that sounds like a spicy feeling right now. Just a little bit on the spicy side. A little bit, but not really.
00:03:13
Speaker
No, just sort of normal but spicy. So lots of koalas over there in koala cordialand. What's up with the obsession with koalas, buddy?
00:03:26
Speaker
It started with this one, which was one of my very first stuffed animals, and it is a koala build but build-a-bear, which I got when I was a kid. And ever since then, I've been extremely
Koala Corgi's Farm RPG Journey
00:03:40
Speaker
obsessed with koalas, and it's one of my number one bucket list items to go to Australia and hold a koala. And hopefully do you plan on do the world will still be around by the time I get to do that. So so I'm guessing not like the soonest.
00:03:54
Speaker
No, we were thinking of doing it over this summer, but um life changes came up and kind of sure that idea to bed. So hopefully, sometimes you got to change your plans. I get that. It's true.
00:04:09
Speaker
So yeah, so that's why your name is Koala Corgi. Yeah, and I do have to explain that. Like I honestly thought it was like some sort of in joke where you'd like just come up with it randomly and then you just adopted being no obsessed with Koalas. I had no idea this was like intrinsic personality.
00:04:25
Speaker
Yep. Yes. And I do have to answer one question because it's one of the top three questions asked of me when when this topic comes up. I in game am in fact the koala and I am riding the Corgi into battle like this. So I'm not a word for the hybrid. We're a pair and we're going to war.
00:04:46
Speaker
What is your corgi's name though? Um, it doesn't have a name. It just prefers to fight alongside, you know? Oh, you guys fight. yeah So here in violence here. Okay. Well, somebody's got to defend farm RPG. And I just want everyone to know that the podcast does not encourage violence against corgis or koalas. I mean, I do against koala. Sure. Well, I mean, virtual koalas. Yes. Not real koalas. Have you ever been called a drop bear?
00:05:17
Speaker
Some people have, I don't respect their words. Okay, that's valid. Sure. All right. I think my favorite is Luna, L-O-U-N-A, not L-U-N-A, who calls me bag animal because that's the translation from German apparently. She always calls me bag animal. Oh yeah, she's our German speaker on stage, which is nice.
00:05:46
Speaker
yeah have some We have a very diverse, very worldly staff now. So like a lot of different languages in there at this time. That is really fun. We have like random questions we could ask you.
00:05:58
Speaker
Yeah, I'm I am excited to get to know you a little bit. You are kind of like one of the mainstays in help chat. Is
Community Comparison: Farm RPG vs RuneScape
00:06:05
Speaker
that correct? Like how did you get involved in help chat? i Yeah, so when I started playing this game in July last year, I haven't been around for very long. No, i yeah I just got my first star a month and a half ago or however long it's been two months ago. But when I first started, I was.
00:06:23
Speaker
I have a somewhat stressful job and I was looking for calming farming games because I actually come from a farming background. My my dad is a farmer, is a farmer. I grew up farming. So I've always liked farming games and I downloaded farm RPG and help chat is the reason I stayed. I think day two, I discovered chat and realized the bliss of just being a support person for a, you know, mostly pointless but fun farm game was very appealing and gave me a lot of outlet to, you know, relax on a lot of days.
Staff Favorites and Rapid-fire Questions
00:07:05
Speaker
um And then, yeah, I just kind of spiraled from there. I think I'm up to, in the early days, I prided myself on always being the first person to answer questions and help chat.
00:07:15
Speaker
And so there would be like walls that you would have seen of me like answering like six or seven questions in a row trying to see how fast I can get. And then I discovered the joys of text replacement on my phone. So I have I counted before I came on I have 364 shortcuts.
00:07:34
Speaker
that are so almost entirely based on stuff that I answer commonly in help chat. A lot of them are just like library pages, but it's faster to type just letters on my phone than it is to change the keyboard to the brackets to make a library page. so So you are actually crazy is what you're trying to talk. you Yeah, but it's better. It's more efficient. Okay. So I'm saying I'm actually saving time in my life. where i've not been at all Until this moment, like now I'm actually worried about you. Yeah. I'll type some in help chat right now. So my favorite ones. Do you ever have that moment where you like work on farm RPG or you help out with farm RPG and then realize that other people are like,
00:08:18
Speaker
you lead into it in a way that, you know, like, yeah it's not a bad thing, no but it is sort of intimidating. I mean, it's cool. Cool. Yeah. No, I'm just kidding. Yeah. we love you give to Everyone that's obsessed with our RPG is just, it's just very, um, I like it. I love the dedication you too playing RuneScape. And this game gives me so many of the same vibes as RuneScape. And I know there's a bunch of RuneScape players that play this game because it has so much of the same feel from like a grinding perspective, like a lot of the efficiencies that you can do, like,
00:08:54
Speaker
It has so many of the same vibes of RuneScape, and it's like ah what this this is like a perfect chat-based game for people that like that kind of game, which is exactly what I was. Do you have an Excel spreadsheet of these hotkeys that you've made for yourself? Oh, no, I have all the hotkeys memorized, i but I... 360 memorized hotkeys to help people. Yeah, it's all like... hey and it's there's a There's a structure to it, so like if I'm... If somebody asked about like, should I craft linked lanterns or should I just sell regular lanterns? In my head, I yeah but yeah i posted that in health chat. People will see that I have a typical one that I post, but the command for it is just linked G, which is like linked lantern guide. And so I have like a structure that I use for all of mine so that I can differentiate between what type of command. But you remember them all. There's like 300 or more of these and then you remember each one. Yep.
Candy Bars and Fast Food Preferences
00:09:53
Speaker
Yeah, there's three, what did I say? 363, I think I said. Yep. Most of them, like 80% of them are just library page links because I absolutely hate having to go and type double brackets. The brackets, yeah. It annoys me. So every time there's a page that I link like more than once, I just create a shortcut for it.
00:10:13
Speaker
I mean, I'm not knocking it, but I am saying that's impressive. That's impressive. I'm like, I'm a little speechless, to be honest. I did not know this about you. I don't know if this is something that you've talked about before, but this is not something I knew.
00:10:28
Speaker
I think Stable and HelpChat probably know it. I think it was most evident when the but last time, before Kitty and I, the last time that staff ran trivia. Because during RKM section, he told me that I wasn't allowed to compete because all of his were, here's a question that somebody asked in HelpChat, responded to the library page.
00:10:51
Speaker
And because I have a shortcut for all of them. Yeah, i that makes sense. I i answered first on like seven out of 10 or something, but I couldn't win anything. But I think I think it's known from some people. That's that's amazing. ah Thank you for doing that. First of all, I mean, yeah, I love i love the question. I used to have like I used to have that kind of categorical knowledge of like shortcuts and stuff. But man, I It sounds like you've really got it down. ah That's one of the reasons I don't go into help chat. ah Not because I don't love the culture there, but like there's like the game has evolved so much. um And the the answers that those view that frequent help chat or our help chat mains, I like to call it, like you guys just have so much more knowledge. So it's always really cool to kind of hear the background. like And now I know how you answer things so fast.
00:11:43
Speaker
Well, the good news is like the library, ah I should say the library is probably the second thing behind help chat that kept me here because again, RuneScape is the only other game that I've had a wiki and a game that I felt is as complete and as thorough as Farm RPG's library, which is in-game, which I think is a huge a huge benefit to it. And it's so much so easy and user friendly for new players. um And so being able to now edit the library and post helpful information about how this game works, you know, what do some people recommend? What are options that exist? You know, if you're trying to find gold leaves for a quest, what are all the ways that you can get? And what are the easiest ways to get them? Like, I feel like that entire aspect of it is I really love that part of it. And that fits right in with helped yet.
00:12:31
Speaker
I feel like I need to give you just a segment on here every every time we record to like just like give a new player tips because I feel like you know probably more than I could ever remember I haven't I haven't done. It's really interesting because that was actually a suggestion that you from like more than one person that was like. um have a section of new player tips. ah So maybe the thing that library page is a great place to start. If you're new to farm RPG, check out the tips library page. Listen, people that are new actually do listen to this because I just got like a couple messages this week from new players that were like, hey, I just binged the podcast. I love it. I'm a new player, which is great. Thank you for listening. I love that. if you're and We are still honored.
00:13:17
Speaker
And it's like, say like December or January or something, like, what up? Thank you for listening. Or like, even if you're just binged it, like, and you're just suddenly caught up and a new episode came out, what up? Thanks for listening. If it's February of 2025, and you are now listening to this, and you're binging, go ahead and hit boob on or myself up and let us know. Hit us up. Because, I mean, we might
Help Chat and Community Support
00:13:38
Speaker
smile at that. I might give you something, or I might smile. No, because someone's just going to make a note. That's true. Don't listen.
00:13:45
Speaker
It's got to be genuine. If you're not genuine, then it's not going to be. I'll know if it's not genuine. I'll know. Anyway.
00:13:54
Speaker
ah Well, I got to get you the classic question of who is your favorite farm RPG staff member. Yeah, so I bet you've been ruminating on this because everybody has you as their least favorite. Yeah, I will. I will say some people on this podcast, I won't name names.
00:14:13
Speaker
have taken some shots and I've had time to come up with my answers here. I will say my favorite staff member, and this is something I've thought about a lot, it is Jules. You knew it was Jules. I knew it was Jules. It's everybody's favorite. It's everyone's favorite is Jules.
00:14:30
Speaker
If the the way that I've come to this conclusion is, if aliens came to Earth and we had to select a leader from staff to represent humanity, who would I choose? And every day it would be Jules. I mean, her, her whole family that plays, everybody is amazing in that family. And Jules is by far the most level-headed and kind person, and one of the
In-game Library Praise
00:14:54
Speaker
first people that I interacted with and helped yet.
00:14:56
Speaker
And, you know, to this day, Stella helped out all the time. So Jules is definitely the favorite. All right. Well, I'm not going to disagree with that sentiment. I do love Jules every time I interact with her. It's always very pleasant.
00:15:11
Speaker
So ah shout out to Jules for once again being staff members, favorite staff person. Maybe that means you need to come on the podcast because everyone thinks you're amazing. Yeah. It's like your favorite artists, favorite artists. She's like the chapel run of a staff. That's your favorite staff members, favorite staff. Here we go. Yeah. No. i So my question is though,
00:15:38
Speaker
You have a favorite. Who is your least favorite? You know, I've had a lot of time to think about this, and there are so many options. There are a lot. I have to say that Koala Korgi guy is just the worst and by far my least favorite staff member. And so I
Chat Bans and Pranks
00:16:01
Speaker
know it's not original. I know it's what everybody before has said, but they all have a point and definitely the worst.
00:16:08
Speaker
valid. You know, and folks, you heard it here first. Once again, ah Koala Korgi has lost the favorite staff member award. But it's evident by the data. If you look at the amount of bands that anybody on staff gets in any given day, month or week, I Koala Korgi is always at the top. I haven't checked this month, but it's got to be north of 100.
00:16:37
Speaker
we We have like people make links specifically to trick. They make links to troll people to click them to ban. That bans him, which is really funny. ah it's it's There was one earlier this week that I think I got 29 bans off of it, off of people clicking the link and then they not doing anything so then they refresh and it bans me again. It's funny. ae I remember when we discovered that back in, you know, 2021 when former RPG came out.
00:17:08
Speaker
Nietzsche even has a library page where he has a hidden link in it that if you click it and it doesn't it the the way that the page is set up makes you think that it has something to do with the page, but if you click it,
Koala Corgi's Role and Enjoyment
00:17:21
Speaker
it bans me. I love that. so that's That's the levels that we've gotten to with this. It's very good. I love it. I feel like I've banned you accidentally by getting link something like multiple times, um pretty much every time somebody links something because I'm a fool and I click every link.
00:17:37
Speaker
and staff chat, and yeah. Those ones are at least ah reasonable. When Forcepath bans me, he does every ban. So I get, oh you know, I get a name ban, I get a farm name ban, I get chat ban, mailbox ban, bio ban, everything. Get it all. Get the gambit, run the whole gambit of bans. Surprised he wasn't listed on your least favorite staff members. You're not a staff member, you're a rad man, that's a different.
00:18:06
Speaker
We've discussed how it's a different thing. Is it? Yeah, it's different. I don't feel that you keep saying it is, but I don't really think that it is. You don't think I'm taking I'm taking Casey on this one. Oh, wow. OK, that's fine. If you just don't think it's different, it's fine. I feel like, you know, we can't be banned. So like we've removed ourselves from the from the pool. Maybe we should know available again.
00:18:31
Speaker
I appreciate Koala Quarry coming on to staff. um And I have shared this. I don't know if I've shared this on the podcast, but I used to be chat band whipping boy. If you were going to ban someone on staff, it was true. That's true. It was it was it was quite brutal for a while. ah So not only do I feel your pain, but I'm passing my pain on to you, Koala Quarry. It's been
Upcoming Content Teasers
00:18:54
Speaker
19 minutes and 15 seconds into this podcast and Forcepath has banned me six times while we've been talking here.
00:19:03
Speaker
I mean, ah how many times have I done zero? Guess what? Lazy. Oh boy. Yeah. Lazy pure laziness. Um, but yeah, my favorite.
00:19:16
Speaker
I'm not going to say it. but what that i I have a special link to van Casey that I keep on my. ah but Oh, okay. That's good. Is it, does it do everything?
00:19:29
Speaker
I do have one for that too. You love a hot bar, man. You just, you know, you set up your... Listen, automation is the now of the future of now. Not in farm RPG. Do not automate anything. We'll get you.
00:19:45
Speaker
Okay, now I feel like. And also it's text replacement to help people and help chat. There you go. Or chat banning. Yeah, that's different. But like. Yeah, but like auto clickers. Don't do that. And we will find you. We will get you and you will be banned. Sorry. And you will be very sad about it.
00:20:03
Speaker
And you've seen posts on Reddit where people are very sad about it. Yeah. Usually those are people that, um, got IP band because they accidentally got on a VPN that somebody has already been naughty on. That usually happens. So you get suddenly IP band, just change your VPN. So, uh, we do have some, some questions from help chat for, uh, which I thought maybe we could do a couple of rapid fire questions before we move into tee time. I mean, yeah Of course there's an opportunity for kc to maybe ah you know talk a little bit more about itself but um there are some i asked in chat because you know chat is is a part of ah everything that we do. And ah the first question comes from wrath of the llama with a very appropriate question how do you feel about the rest of the animals and help chat.
00:20:56
Speaker
see um is a great question. I think most of them are amazing. I think we have a couple too many cats, especially when Gideon shows up. You know, it's almost never good when
Listener Questions and Personal Stories
00:21:09
Speaker
she shows up and help chat. ah The llamas are good. I will say, by far my least animal and help chat is the rare giraffe that shows up. Oh, draft every time the giraffe shows up, it's you know I didn't know that the giraffe hopped and helped out, still. Very rarely, but it's obvious when the giraffe shows up. Maybe they need some coal. Yes, I think that they do. I think somebody who has the power should change their profile picture to coal for them because they keep forgetting and changing it back.
00:21:45
Speaker
so But, you know, I'll let I'll let Buban ask the next question while I go rectify this situation because I'm really, really glad that you brought it up. This is true. So you're ah ah Dr. Shinra. Oh, Dr. Shinra. Wow. um Ask. Great name, right? It's a good name. ah What your favorite superpower is. I feel like it's a hard question.
00:22:09
Speaker
Oh, that is a really hard question. I did think about this in depth about a year ago. And now I'm forgetting everything that I thought about. But I'm shocked that you could remember a year ago. I can't remember anything. I can't remember what I ate for dinner. Yeah, I guess I can go with a a cop out cop out answer of just like teleportation, I guess, but I had a I had a really good one. And I had a good reasoning, but I can't remember. Like what kind of teleportation like straight up anywhere or like, like Nightcrawler? I mean, if I have to choose probably anywhere, but I think I would be okay with my powers. Okay. All right. I mean, does it? Okay.
00:22:50
Speaker
now i Now I have a question. Is Nightcrawler's powers like the movie Jumper? where you can look at a picture and jump there, no or does Nightcrawler have to have line of sight vision? Nightcrawler doesn't have to have line of sight, but he's had to have seen it, I think, in person before, or it could be within proximity. You have to do that in Jumper 2, for the record, ah in the books, which, by the way, the first Jumper book, really wonderful, the other two, airable, do not understand the movie. I've never seen the movie. The movie's with Hayden Christensen, right?
Community and Game Development
00:23:24
Speaker
It is, and it's not. I don't know Hayden Christensen.
00:23:27
Speaker
Honestly, that movie got maybe a little bit more flack than it should. he's It's not like an amazing movie, but who doesn't love Hayden Christensen? I know oh now who doesn't love Hayden Christensen, but like I was I've always been on I love the Hayden Christensen. I love Hayden Christensen since since the before times since he was hated.
00:23:45
Speaker
I love that man. He's great. Well, my point being in jumper, you also need to have visited a place, but then when you have a picture of it, that's your memory of the place to go back there. Okay. I think the movie was a little difference there, but I would still take that power thing. I could just do a year traveling and then, you know, I can go teleport into a bank and steal stuff and teleport out, right?
00:24:07
Speaker
Yeah. Yeah. No, that's a great one. That's a great one. You know, um praise the wall. Oh, man. Oh, really? You're getting you're starting us, huh? Starting it. Chaching for someone. Well, there's probably been a ton of alms, to be honest. I haven't been counting. i I have to go through and count them all. ah Like I have to sit and listen to the editors. Did our editors? No, they don't do it. I don't I do it. I don't do it. It's fine. I hate for it. Oh, wait.
00:24:35
Speaker
yeah ah They I give them some gold. Let's be real. They get a little bit of they go they're in the budget. Yeah, they're in my budget. They get
Closing Remarks
00:24:45
Speaker
they get paid out by mythical budget. Every time we talk about the gold budget, this becomes so corporatized.
00:24:53
Speaker
um I know. I love it. I love that. That's the whole I'm glad that you get it. The synergy is popping right now. yeah the synergy pump And then we kind of circle back to that, you know, yeah talk about the case. Yeah. Yeah.
00:25:07
Speaker
we do We do sometimes circle back, close the loop. ah We have some standups about it. Metrics. We do we do have a KPI or or five. who um You know, maybe some essay and OPs about it. Anyway, this is getting a two-day job for me, so it's like... yeah Yeah, well, so Eszlo asked ah what Koala Korgi thinks about Eucalyptus, the item, and its potential addition to the game at some point.
00:25:33
Speaker
maybe I feel very strongly about this one and I do have an answer prepared for this and I have to say. Do I need to play you off if it goes too long? I think the developers are cowards for not adding it so far. I'm just going to say it. I know it just like the opportunity is there.
00:25:52
Speaker
I think that they're afraid of the power that it will bring if it's introduced. And that's why they've been prepared. Let's be real, this is highly flammable. Let's get Fire Street on and just pull them in. ah I've been saying this since day one of becoming staff. i On my first day, I said, OK, now that I'm staff, how long until we can get eucalyptus? And I've been preaching that since.
00:26:14
Speaker
You know, so some of us have been wondering why Koala Korgi is the punching bag. But this statement right here maybe gives a little bit of depth into the egomania of Koala Korgi. This is true. He just thinks he's better than us. But that's OK. But that's why we have to put him down a couple pegs.
00:26:35
Speaker
It's okay to understand reality better than others do. And it makes others afraid. And that's all I'm going to say about that. Okay, ah so thanks as low for that question. That you have now peeled back the onion layer. ah and MSU dog asks, What is Koala corgis favorite candy bar?
00:27:00
Speaker
Nerds Rope so or choice Chewy Spreeze. You're not a chocolate guy. or I know that about you. I don't like chocolate. I don't eat chocolate. um I don't like caramel. Ubin, what about you? ah My favorite is the Reese's Peanut Butter Cup. But like specifically, though, the shapes that are like that have more peanut butter than chocolate, so I'm talking like the pumpkins, the eggs, the trees,
00:27:27
Speaker
Girl, re those are the top tier. Well, that's the way to go. They're like a tier. There is one tier above that big cups or the ones. Have you had the big cup with the Reese's pieces in it? That's too much for me. I don't really love them. Those are good. Come on. Anyway, I'm a big PB girl. I love PB. We're out here in the peanut butter world. um So just love it. What's your favorite? Let's go.
00:27:53
Speaker
You know, the reality is is that it's got to be the re-season outrageous bar. OK. And I will also accept Twix peanut butter. Bring back Twix peanut butter cowards. This was very good. um It's always Twix caramel now, though. What the heck happened? But.
00:28:13
Speaker
and So not rages, though, number one, ah except when when Twix peanut butter is out there. But of course, they discontinued it like four years ago. It hasn't been back. There's literally a subreddit around Twix peanut butter, like because we're all so angry about it.
00:28:30
Speaker
Listen, maybe someday you'll get it back. They did bring back like those um cream savers. So like, if the McRib can come back, anything can come back. The McRib comes back every six months. Everybody forgets about the McRib for like, they just put it out of their mind, but it always comes back. That always comes back. And you know what? I'm a McRib Enjoyer. I'll say it here. I like the McRib.
00:28:53
Speaker
That's okay. You know, everything for McDonald's, once you've eaten it, it's kind of like, oh, this is way better. I thought of this in my head was, was going to be good, but it's not. So, so I have a perspective on this. We're going to get away from interviewing Casey for a second. Sorry, buddy.
00:29:09
Speaker
I have this belief that those kinds of fast food restaurants like are really good in beyond moderation. like I had Burger King for the first time in like eight months, like two weekends ago while I was traveling. And holy cow, Burger King is tasty. But I guarantee you if I ate it again, it would go from like, wow, that was really tasty too.
00:29:36
Speaker
Yeah, I think I really need that. And it's the same with McDonald's. And it's the same with darn near every fast food. You know what the only exception is is McDonald's breakfast. That rocks hard. haa breakfast asly matter yeah you're not i'm not a chickfila Like we have Chick-fil-A up here, but I could never get through a line because the lines are wrapped around the block. There's a reason for that. Yeah. Who wants to wait ah ah an hour for a medium chicken sandwich? You know what's better? Hopeyes. Hopeyes is so good. They just put a raising canes up here. We didn't have one until very recently. There's one like up here somewhere. I got to find it. I haven't had it before.
00:30:16
Speaker
It's good. New England is like the last to get all the cool regional chains. See, I live in a bigger city now. There's all kinds of stuff here that I didn't have when I lived in absolutely nowhere Indiana because I can't use the other word. Dominated by Dunkin Donuts. Dunkin Donuts, there's a Dunkin Donuts across from Dunkin Donuts everywhere here and both of them do amazing. I don't know what it is. That's just the life of being in New England.
00:30:44
Speaker
is that there's Dunkin Donuts across the street from Dunkin Donuts, and they both have a liner on the block. and MSU, Doug, thank you for the question. Clearly, we are all very passionate about our snack foods. We are. It's true. Thank you. That is the that is true. As slow as the second question. These are failed questions. These questions are all about food. What's up? Yeah. like this This is like when when I go in spoilers chat and just start talking about food. It's just all food related. Because it's around supper time on the West Coast is my my prediction. right Yeah, but it's like... be true
00:31:19
Speaker
Pancakes are waffles. That's what Eslo wants to know. That's not a dinner food. Pancakes any day. Yeah, well, obviously, but that's, you know. I'm insulted by the question, Eslo. That's all I'm going to say. um And then we have one last question, which is still minorly food related. Zoe Z asks, ice in orange juice, yes or no?
00:31:41
Speaker
I'm very glad that Zoe has asked this question because I pulled the help chat twice now on this and I've been tallying the votes and it is a split 50-50. It's a no. It's got to be a no. It's a yes.
00:31:56
Speaker
aye Ice and orange juice? Do you put ice and orange juice? If you go out to a restaurant and you order orange juice and they bring you back a glass in the middle of summer of orange juice, even if it was in the fridge, by the time you're done with your meal, the orange juice is lukewarm. And then you have to drink lukewarm orange juice. That's fine.
00:32:20
Speaker
and That's fine. I don't want water dark. You just put a couple ice cubes in. It's like you're a homie. Listen, we're on the same page. All I'm saying is that it's 50 50 on this question anymore. It's not more. I wonder why I think we need a game game. So much. You know what? I will. I will. I will advocate for for that. I said orange juice. Well, I will. after this pile I will ask Firestream if we can do that and he'll probably say yes, but I'll probably like I remember when we had the argument about peanut butter in admin chat.
00:32:57
Speaker
when Because I'm saying, when I make a peanut butter sandwich, I put peanut butter on both so both slices of bread. You're crazy. And then jam in the middle like a normal human. how do You pick one and you spread it and then you fold it so then you get two sandwiches out of two this is pieces of bread rather than one big sandwich.
00:33:20
Speaker
I'm not gonna follow this line of thinking anymore. What I'm gonna do is I'm gonna ask you what you want your secret password to be. Oh my lord. Okay, yeah, let me get the panel up for that. Yeah, think about it. I'm shocked that you didn't come prepared for this. Did you? I am prepared. Oh, are you? Okay. Yeah, it's just that I also... So one thing I haven't mentioned is I'm a chronic hoarder in this game. I've never opened a Borgenbeg. I've never opened a Voigtbeg.
00:33:49
Speaker
And I also never have never. Do you have any of the admin items? No, I've never gotten any. But one other thing that I hoard is remaining passwords in the mailbox. I early on opened a handful and then I immediately regretted it. And the only ones that I open are ones that I have to to get access to content like during October.
00:34:12
Speaker
But my word has to be eucalyptus for a mailbox password. And the reward should be one herb because it's the only item that's close enough to a eucalyptus. ah Does that break any progression?
00:34:29
Speaker
No, you get I looked this up because I knew you were going to question whether or not we can do it. My argument is that during the current Apple temple, you get 10 herbs for giving 250 apples to the temple. And if that isn't progression breaking, I don't think one from a mailbox will be. I'm going to consult the ah the balance manager ah for this one. you know Once again,
00:34:53
Speaker
and I'm also going to go ahead and toss you a chat ban for being you. Wow. We must be up to 11 or 12 by now. and I just keep on banning myself on the side here. I don't know if you wanted to bring it up. There's nothing we didn't talk about that you were you were going to bring up. Don't you remember? We haven't gotten a tea time yet. ah We're doing a tea time. okay We can just segue into tea time then.
00:35:18
Speaker
OK, well, I've got I've got to do. Look up your thing. We'll just start talking over here. I got to do it. teach I got to do a quick thing. Well, Corey, what are you what are you what are you working on right now and farm RPG? um Well, there's another one. Yeah, I don't. I can't say that until we get into the yeah the the remaining tea time.
00:35:35
Speaker
What I did just complete was PSA. I finished that. ah Officially before Gideon, Gideon and I were racing, and she did indeed lose. I just want everybody to know that. Because she was on, I'm pretty sure she talked about beating me in Pamerats and Starmat. But I beat her in PSA, and it wasn't even close. And so the world needs to know. Just in time to be smited from the heavens, I'm sure once Forcepath releases the remainder of that quest, and I can be sad again.
00:36:06
Speaker
I just want to point out that you are rubbing it in at a time when our dear friend and a lot of people in the US. ah our are sheltering from a hurricane. so So really, you're comparing your achievement in PSA to someone who is dealing with a hurricane. And I find that despicable. she I'm going to send you another champion for that. In her own defense, she did tell us that she was fine. And I completed PSA multiple days ago before the hurricane. So
00:36:44
Speaker
I'm in the clear. Sure. All right. All right. i mean that's it I have, I have vetted the herb and it is good. So right the herb is good. So spoilers, as you well know, with passwords, keep it out of chat for three days after this drops, please. I appreciate it. I love you guys. Get big kisses to youwlor just you Just anyone in specific that you want to blow a kiss to and spoilers. No, just in general, the whole, the whole chat.
00:37:11
Speaker
The whole chat. ok Hulk, we'll blow kisses to Hulk. hoaxs and spoil um how many How many bouquets of flowers do you get from Hulk if you blow a kiss at him rather than just tagging him in chat? That's a good question. I'm going to tag him right now and see what happens. I don't know if he's in there right now, is he? Let's find out. He's always in there. Well, actually, no, it's very late, I think, for Hulk, so probably not.
00:37:36
Speaker
I mean, if I don't get a bouquet of flowers, promise broken. And um I guess I'll just have to check man clock or you again. Yeah. All right. That's valid. But yeah. um So you want to you want to start say I just want to point out how crazy amazing our community is. I hit the and password button approximately a minute ago tops.
00:38:00
Speaker
and Already someone in spoilers going, new password question mark? I kid you not. I don't know how they do it. People are wild. Y'all are amazing. Good luck figuring this out. I'm sure somebody's going to figure it out before the podcast because it's known now that I'm here. That's true. the most the The thing that I type the most that isn't an item in game is Eucalyptus.
00:38:25
Speaker
But yeah, congrats to a longer blank on being the first person in spoilers to realize there's a new one. Well, we could also open up, um you know, ah I was going to open up giveaway and I give away. So so we've got like 20 minutes. We're going to do maybe a little bit tea time. Maybe if you want to get trivia open for some like Q and A, we can go over a little bit of tea while some questions flood in.
00:38:53
Speaker
Yeah, you start you start the discussion while I get this. Sure. but So the question is, what am I working on right now? Yes. What are you working on right now? ah Well, I'm going to I'm going to admin this one a little bit. I've got I've got three major things that I'm working on right now. I have two questlines that I'm working on that both are.
00:39:17
Speaker
60% of the way done somewhere around there in terms of writing, um I have a the concept of an idea for the quest requirements. But I'm really, really hoping to have them done sooner than later. I have been dealing with a little bit of writer's block lately, ah which is not fun to deal with, especially when it makes you feel like people are waiting on you. ah So that's the first two things. um I also recently built a temple adventure that some people are testing ah right now in Alpha.
00:39:48
Speaker
and that should hopefully be live in the next week or two, I think, um and big things coming with that. So some spoilers for you guys. ah More endgame focused. I do mostly focus on endgame stuff, if any of you didn't know that. um And then the final thing that I've been working on um is probably the thing that everyone's the most excited about right now, which has been some testing for mining.
00:40:19
Speaker
So we have finally kind of gotten through the ah summer months. Everyone's been very busy. Firestream has really put mining to its task, had the admin group working through it. and um I'm pretty sure we're going to see mining in beta in the next week or so.
00:40:40
Speaker
like So if you're listening to this, it's possible mining's already out. Maybe not. Well, out in beta. Out in beta, I should say. Thank you, guys. I'm terrible. You know, context. But for real, mining's fun. Mining is extremely fun, to be honest. i it's ah It's a really, really nice game loop.
00:41:04
Speaker
Yeah, I am obviously addicted to it. Yes, we've had staff banging their heads against it for the last week or so. um So yeah learn what yeah, spoilers. If you want to deep dive into it, you can there. can I will add one thing. The launch of mining is likely going to be in beta, but that is not the end of mining. So there will be, I'm sure, much more comment. Sure. I mean, I can add a little flavor there. um We definitely want to get the core concept of mining out ah out to the players. um We've had the staff kind of, wouldn't say tear it apart, but definitely point out some of the bigger issues.
00:41:47
Speaker
you know, some maybe some challenges latency, some things that maybe weren't clear. um But what we put out in beta is definitely not going to be the end. You know, there's ah I'm I'm very excited to write some quests for it. Tenfu and I have had a few discussions about it. You know, there's some opportunities to integrate it in other areas of the game. I don't want to like say any because then maybe people might take that as gospel and then things could change. But it's pretty exciting.
00:42:16
Speaker
Overall, man, I'm excited. I know Firestream is really excited. I know the rest of the admin team is really excited. It's very exciting. Well, it's exciting to see a new skill. yeah Waiting hopelessly for it to go to beta so everybody can enjoy just how addicting most of us find it. I've done yeah before coming onto this podcast, I made sure to check. I have officially completed 5,000 floors.
00:42:40
Speaker
I'm only behind Nietzsche at this point. So only god we've had it like a week. So if that's any indication of just how fun it is, I highly recommend everybody that can. So is that what you're working on right now? Absolutely. That's the main thing I've been working on at all. What about you, Buban? What have you been working on?
00:43:04
Speaker
um I've been working on an admin thing, which is I've been redrawing a lot of animals. So you guys might have seen the the chickens that are I think in beta right now.
00:43:16
Speaker
Um, chickens. I redrew a lot of chickens. I think there's 26 chickens. There's like 11 different kinds of chicken, but like 26 different like colorways of all the chickens. And then I did cows, which are not any, nobody's seen any of those yet. boilers but Can you really say that? Are you allowed? Yeah, I think we talked about it. I've talked about it in spoilers. I'm like cows, cows is coming. Um,
00:43:45
Speaker
ah Because I think even Firestream was just like, yeah, then she's doing cows. Oh, OK. Well, i so I mean, I mean, whatever. Cows is coming. It's kind of tough to keep track of everything, you know. Yeah, it's fine. Even if it isn't. I mean, you also draw like a bajillion things. I do draw a bajillion things. oh What else have I drawn recently? ah I drew one of the mining locations. That's fun.
00:44:09
Speaker
I'm not going to spoil what it's called or what it is, but I drew that. What else? I don't know. Oh yeah. The thing that we were talking about tonight. The thing that we were talking about tonight. What are you talking about? The mining? I'm confused. Yes. Yes. I did draw one of those. I really, I really, really want to add mustard to farm RPG. I need to convince Firestream to let you draw a bottle of mustard. Okay. I would do that. Um,
00:44:36
Speaker
We actually have some questions in the questions Q and&A, by the way. Oh, look at that. It's already opened. Yeah, I opened it um just so that we can start. um Holy moly, that was fast. Why are people so fast? Guys, you're amazing. I just am constantly blown away by people.
00:44:55
Speaker
It's good. um What do you got? I did red box help chat. So Princess Zelda has asked, do we have a fair Pokemon? And yes, I do. It's Magmar. um Magmar number one. I love Magmar, but chat talk number two. um What's your favorite? What is your favorite Pokemon?
00:45:16
Speaker
Dude, I don't know. um It's probably Dragonite. He's kind of like a base. No, I'm sorry. It's not Dragonite. It's Gengar. Gengar has always been my favorite Pokemon. I literally, anytime I play a Pokemon game and I can get Gengar, I use Gengar. I just got a Gengar key cap for my my thing. It's very cool. I don't know. I'm a Gen 1 guy. So I'm totally... I mean, I play most of the Pokemon games. Casey, what about you? Favorite Pokemon?
00:45:43
Speaker
live one Wow, I'm shocked that you don't like Kamala. love the Yeah, but it's okay. I am also an older gen Pokemon player. I don't play the new ones as much. I do like I don't know the name of it. But the sand castle ghost, I think is one of the coolest. Yeah, concepts for a Pokemon. But Flygon has to be my favorite because it's insane to have a levitating ground-dragging Pokémon that can use Earthquake. It's just the most busted combination. there You're right. That is that is a busted Pokémon. I love Flygon also, so good choice.
00:46:26
Speaker
Um, okay. Uh, not a brain is saying, how can I better role play my farm RPG experience? I've dressed like Jill planted crops, IRL, try to mine the pavement outside, but my ATOA was not a fan of that. How can I be a better, how do, how can I do to be a better farmer? I'm not reading that properly. What can I do? Oh, what can I do? Sorry. I'm just reading him improperly.
00:46:50
Speaker
I don't know how you could be a better farmer. I'd say, um, have you ever, I think you need to start woodworking. I'm going to be honest with you. Make some tables. Perfect. Uh, fancy tables are very popular to send around to other players. So start making your own fancy tables that will really connect you with farmer. Fancy tables are not mailable in this video game.
00:47:12
Speaker
what Whatever, wooden tables, fancy tables, same difference. Fancy tables are an item. Don't tell people to mail them because they they'll come to help chat and say force path for me to mail fancy tables, but they're not mailable. How do I send them? Listen, I'm flying by the seat of my pants here. and happened oh I think that the best way to become a better farmer is you need to lose your mind and come up with your own unique farm-based parody of a song like in Corn Quandary, which is the best quest line. So as soon as you come up with your own song, you'll be a real farmer. Perfect. who did I'm so glad I don't know anyone that wrote Corn Quandary. I'm so glad I don't know anybody who wrote that either. um i i you know That guy's a real loser. Anyway,
00:48:04
Speaker
These are a lot, there are so many people lot pinging you specifically. I'm gonna i'm gonna i'm gonna ask your so um'm go to ask you so you're not asking yourself. ah Beck Moon, B-E-J-K Moon says, how do you come up with all your art, Bubun? It's incredible, and I'm a fellow artist, so I'm wondering what gives you your inspiration. um Cartoons.
00:48:24
Speaker
is my is my answer. It's called cartoons. I like cartoons and I like watching cartoons and I also like animals. So those are like the two things I like. So combine them, cartoon animals. Here we go. Yeah. You know, I've watched a lot. You just noticed he's going good. Oh, you changed. Oh, you changed his icon. I love that. I love that you did that to him. What is it?
00:48:52
Speaker
I didn't see that at any time. I'm you myself for a second. Yes, go for it. But yeah, that's that is the that is my favorite ah thing to do is draw animals. So animals and cartoons. Anyway, while he's laughing, there was a question for everybody, um which is how do we all start playing this game, which I feel like really, I'm the only other one that hasn't answered this in here. I think you you're day one, you're a day one guy.
00:49:21
Speaker
Yes, I've known Firestream from Titan Conquest and he invited mods of Titan Conquest to come check out FarmerPG. Right, and then Koala just said that he was looking for a farming game. So i my friend Steph Sticks, I think I've talked about it before actually, Steph Sticks, she showed it to me. She came over my house and showed me on her phone and said, look at this weird text-based farming game I found. I love it. Do you want you want to play? Here, join. And this was before there was like a referral thing. So she forever is kicking herself because I'm like the only person she referred that still plays. um
00:49:54
Speaker
And she still plays, but I don't think she was actually been on in a couple of days. The last time I looked so um maybe Steph sticks is dropping off. Who knows? Anyway, that's how I joined. As low as what's your favorite? Aren't you drawn? Oh, for the game, it says the game. OK. Oh, that's a really tough question.
00:50:12
Speaker
I really like this month this coming up months Raptor I drew. I'm really happy with him. And that's a spoiler. I'm not going to say what it is, but when this when October's new Raptor drops, that might be my favorite.
00:50:27
Speaker
So that might be, I i really like that one. I'm really happy with him. I'm surprised he didn't say honey because everybody in chat loves the honey. I love the honey. change yeah oh yeah I mean, if I have to pick something that has been completely released, I'm going to say the inflatable Raptor maybe. There's some stuff that's come out for like mining that I really like too, but I can't talk about that. so Fair. Anyway, let's see here. One of the questions we have on Nixie Bell asks, Hey, quality, do you make the corgi do all of your farm work for you? Contrary to popular belief, the corgi is a dog and likes to dig holes. And digging holes is good for planting seeds. So I don't ask. It just doesn't. Fascinating. Let's see here.
00:51:23
Speaker
You guys picking out anything you want to answer? I like this one. Some items have wonderful slash funny descriptions, which are your favorite? This person likes the ladder or the stepladder, which is you're not even my real, which is really funny. um I don't know. ah Which is your favorite mine? i I can tell you the only one that I wrote, which is wooden pipe.
00:51:51
Speaker
And it's, yeah, here we go. I heard about this for like, everybody's, it's my only, it's my only claim to fame, which is, I don't know how to speak French, but it's, this is not a pipe in French. So I couldn't even tell you what it, what it, how to say it. I would have to get Snoop on here to actually say it. But if you look up, you know, the, that, that quote, it's an image of a pipe that is a famous piece of art. It's just funny to me. Anyway, that's my favorite because I did it.
00:52:22
Speaker
I'm a big fan of puns, so I like the jar of pickles, which just says, deal with it. kind of good That was a fun one to make. That was good. I don't have a favorite, honestly. I've been working on this game so long. There are so many fun items. ah The item rename thing was a lot of fun, seeing everyone's ideas.
00:52:48
Speaker
I of obviously I love the Force Path book because you know, but I don't have a favorite.
00:52:59
Speaker
That's valid. Let's see, what other good questions are here? um We have a good one from someone new. if okay Oh man, he's asked a bunch of questions. He's asked so many. so yeah Looking back at the three plus years, what has kept you most excited to come back and play the game besides the community? Assuming that the community even makes you know the top five.
00:53:25
Speaker
but
00:53:28
Speaker
ah To play the game itself. It's tough when you get to where I think we are because my enjoyment is extremely meta at this point. Like, you know, I do so many different things that everybody else can't do because they are players and I am helping make the game. So my enjoyment is making the game itself at this point.
00:53:56
Speaker
um And I don't even make the game. I just draw funny pictures. So and I do this sort of thing. So this is fun for me. I like to do the podcast. I like to talk to people who play this game and see why they like to play this game. I think that's the most enjoyable thing. I guess that's the community. So sorry. Someone knew my answer is the community.
00:54:18
Speaker
Yeah, I mean, I would kind of agree. ah My enjoyment has always been pretty meta. I mean, I've been a mod since day one. So I've been a part of the the growth of the game for a very long time. I did take us a break ah for, I don't know, seven months. Six, seven months. Yeah. I was going through a few things, um but in general, my enjoyment is pretty meta as well. I've been writing quests since like 2021.
00:54:49
Speaker
Um, so I, for me, it has been learning um player psychology and, you know, growing as a person interacting with, um, which I've had a lot of.
00:55:02
Speaker
growth and learning time with. So for me, it may sound lame, but it really is the community. I mean, like, I do love playing, too. I mean, the only thing I haven't completed in the game at this point is PSA. And that's just because I've been very busy ah with a bunch of other stuff. And I just haven't really dedicated the time to it. And I love playing it. But ah to me, it's the it's meeting that we have such a fun group of mods that they really care about the game. And then You know seeing and working with fire stream and the rest of the admin team are also passionate it's just kind of infectious um i still log in every dang day i love it so.
00:55:43
Speaker
Good question. You got anyone? Casey, I mean, it's only been a year for you, but... Yeah, it's only been a year. the same Chat RPG is definitely up there. In the last 10 days, it's absolutely my name. I don't think to date I've had something that I'm as addicted to in this game, or maybe any game as I have been with my name. It is so satisfying to me. And then I'm sure it won't necessarily be for everybody, but...
00:56:12
Speaker
I'm so excited for people to get access to it because it is just the happy brain chemicals that you get from completing floors and all of the fun bits and bobs that come with mining is just so much fun. That's a good one. Kind of like pick out another question here. There's a lot.
00:56:36
Speaker
There's a lot. um I do, so Nixie Bell asked, it's the best piece of ice you would give your new farmer self. um i think I think we should go back to the idea of maybe doing like a a new section where maybe we do a tip of the month as opposed to trying to just come up with something off the top of our heads. I'm really, really liking that idea. I agree. yeah We'll have to we' have to um you know make you do this for us Casey. Yeah, maybe we'll crowdsource that from the staff team. Yeah. I think that could be. That should work. Just spend a few days in help chat and you'll learn all the, you'll you'll see all the questions asked by new players and you'll find new questions to ask and there are so many helpful people. So my number one thing is just hang out and help chat if you're a new player. You just you just uptake so much information that is helpful and you get ideas and you don't have to follow them, but you can.

Speaker
I keep trying to tell Vinny to go in there because he keeps asking me questions. And I'm like, dude, I did this three years ago. Like, you don't need to ask me. I don't know. Like, ask go and ask help. I don't know. I have no idea. I think my favorite part about that when new players come in is once they've gone through help chat and asked a bunch of questions, they now feel like they have a little bit better understanding of the game. And then the best way to actually learn the game is by helping teach other people.
00:57:59
Speaker
and So the amount of like you know one to three month players that are in help chat constantly just helping out even newer players and giving great advice on how to progress, what are you know some of the walls that you're going to hit, what's normal, what are some things that you could focus on is just so cool to see. So a the best way to learn is to teach, and the best way to teach is to sit and help chat for a bit.
00:58:25
Speaker
yeah and I can tell you my mom sits in help chat a lot whose name will not be the given, but she loves help chat. She loves the wiki. um She calls me almost daily with questions. So she she loves it. She really, really wants a farm RPG shirt too. So I'm glad for help chat because sometimes I'm not around to answer her questions or There are times where I feel like I don't have the perspective that maybe a player that has been playing for one or two months have. um So it's good to, you know I get a chance to preach to her, you know hey, you need to have some perspective. um you know this Your plans need to be measured in in centuries, not in hours when it comes to farm RPG. And sometimes I feel like that gets really lost in the and today's rush society.
00:59:16
Speaker
Yeah, that's really good. Good one, guys. We have one last orange juice related question that I now need to know your opinions on, which is, you know, in addition to being wrong about ice in orange juice, what are your preferences for pulp versus no pulp in orange juice? Pulp is fine. Pulp is fine. Medium pulp. Give me the medium pulp. I don't need like a ton. I just it's fine.
00:59:43
Speaker
I can give me lots of pulp, a little pulp. They're not like an over the top, give me pulp. I don't mind it. i don't mind this way i don't like I don't seek out a certain version of orange juice, I guess. Like if you hand me a glass of orange juice, as long as it is not like crazy, obviously concentrated, like this came in a tin can and you put water in it and let it sit in the fridge, like pretty happy about it.
01:00:10
Speaker
Yeah, i'm I'm on the same level. It's just, I like orange juice in general. I'll drink any orange juice you put in front of me. As long as there's not ice in it, I feel like that's weird. I don't want to water down. Yeah. Why would you put ice? It doesn't get watered down. It does get watered down. No, it does. Because then when you have like a half glass of orange juice and then there's ah like it the ice melts, you have more ice in it than orange juice and it melts, then it doesn't taste like fill the glass with ice. You put like three or four restaurants here. They fill it with ice. No ice.
01:00:38
Speaker
No, you if they okay, almost every restaurant doesn't put ice in the orange juice. So you order a water and then you scoop out a couple of ice cubes. with even in the orange water now No, I don't do work. If I'm at a restaurant, I'm not doing any work. i I cook every day. If I'm at a restaurant, they're putting everything in front of me how I'm supposed to consume it. I'm not even putting salt in the food. Let's be real. I'm not lifting a hand. I'm eating the food as is as it comes.
01:01:06
Speaker
That's too little effort for my comfort. Let's see here. Do we have any? I'm looking at the time where we're basically out of time, but I do want to see if there's any other interesting questions in here because I don't want anyone to feel like we didn't. I'm reading through all of these. There are so many questions already. Omnisiah asks, what is a crop you would want to be or be excited to see in the game? Strawberries, pineapples, squash, etc.
01:01:36
Speaker
Wow, that's a good question. Hmm. Avocados. I would say avocados. I love an avocado. You can make avocado toast as a food item. Cooking. So for me, it would be a crop that is used in more than one thing. So I, you know, sort of like how corn has kind of become the meat.
01:02:00
Speaker
um you know I'd love to see another crop that that is used in more than just like a food-related dish. My answer would be soybeans, I think, which is one of the staple crops that you know my family grows, but we don't have access to in the game. and If you're a proper farmer in the Midwest,
01:02:20
Speaker
you tend to rotate your fields between corn and soybeans for soil health. Right now, I feel like we don't have that opportunity, so I'm really worried about my farm's soil health and what the farm is going to be like after I'm done with it. You've given me a great idea for a quest called Crop Rotation. There we go. It's an essential part of farming. you have to for so I think everyone's going to be really mad at you when crop rotation comes out.
01:02:49
Speaker
I take no credit for the level of difficulty. I only take credit for the idea, not the execution. And on that, ah maybe we should... That's it. That's it. It was so nice to chat with you guys. I have missed you guys so much. I love chatting. Being so busy lately. This new job is kicking my tail. And I miss hanging out.

01:05:21
Speaker
so In case anybody was wondering, in monday the count was 23 bands during the podcast. So times that by five, or am I just adding 23 gold to the total? Yeah, however you want to look at it. I'll figure it out. We'll see how we're around at the end. We're either adding an extra 23 gold or I'm going to times it by five and give you... but Actually, that sounds crazy. 115 gold? That's not that bad. All right. We'll add 115 to the M slash swear jar total. um So for the colloquial bands. But yes, again, thank you for listening. We love you. Many kisses.
