About Me
I've been following GameGrumps since December 28th, 2012. During the time, I had given up on Let's Plays after a phase of liking them from 2007, to 2010. I got more into playing games, than watching others play them, as it took up a lot of my free time, and school was ramping up in difficulty. I had been watching Let's Plays, but I never finished a single one. My first ever Let's Play, and the first YouTube video I ever saw was a Sonic Unleashed Let's Play, that I have forgotten the channel name of. The game was pretty new, and I was going to my local library to try out their computers. A few months after I got my first Computer for Christmas, I had bought Harvest Moon: Island Of Happiness on a whim after reading about it in the Official Nintendo Magazine, and I was very bored with the game. I had no idea what to do so I looked online for help, and I came across Gabbo1313 who I consider my very first Let's Player(I can't remember the name of that Sonic Unleashed Channel and probably never will, with the amount of LP's uploaded on it) and I watched his Harvest Moon: Back To Nature videos(which I never finished, because he deleted all the videos, and I was very close to finishing them too-although he has tried to reboot the series about 3 times, and I've been around for that..sadly I haven't ever gotten up-to-date) It was then that I fell in love with Let's Playing. I really enjoyed the stories, and I enjoyed the gameplay-- it was a great way to see what games were worth buying and what-not. It was so much easier to watch someone play a game, than do it myself, and it was oddly therapeudic I'm unsure if this was Harvest Moon talking or Let's Plays in general. It was a great way to pass the time as well. I used to use the Computer in my sister's room, once we got one and watched Gabbo1313's videos constantly. I'd stay up late and end up being late for Junior school surfing the internet. These weren't only my first Let's Plays-- but my first exposure to the internet as a whole. I also discoveredMrFailGame and watched some of his Harvest Moon 64 Let's Play The two would constantly reference eachother on their respective channels and one time they did a crossover episode. Unfortunately, MrFailGame passed away in 2013, and Gabbo1313 hardly ever uploads now. The last Let's Player I discovered before GameGrumps was NintendoCapriSun. I wanted to know what Super Mario Sunshine was like, as Official Nintendo Magazine often called it "the black sheep of the franchise" and so, I watched his  Super Mario Sunshine Let's Play, but I never really finished it. To this day, I still try to. (I later bought Super Mario Sunshine in 2011, when I found out my Wii could play GameCube games) The very last Let's Play I watched before GameGrumps, was NintendoCapriSun'sConkers Bad Fur Day one. I've forgotten how far I actually got, but I got pretty far, and I enjoyed watching those on my phone during a school Holiday. It felt like I had all the time in the world doing that. What you may be wondering now is: "How did you discover GameGrumps then?" and "How on earth did you memorize the date you started watching?" and the answer to those questions is: I was watching the usual gaming videos I usually watch, and in the related videos was a Sonic '06 episode from the GameGrumps. I clicked on that not expecting much, but Sonic the Hedgehog was(and still is) my favourite game franchise, so I left it there playing in the background, as I talked to my friends on another chatroom, and I wasn't really paying attention at first, but something happened there that made me instantly fall in love with the show. I'm not sure what exactly it was. Whether it was how real they got, or their sense of humour-- which perfectly mirrored mine, and actually geniunely made me laugh. It was also the first time I didn't only laugh at sex jokes. The GameGrumps' humour shaped my humour too. The delivery of their jokes, and the exposition used-- they're my inspiration in terms of humour, and I just enjoyed how real they got on the show. I instantly gave the Sonic '06 episodes a watch right from Episode 1, and I made it known how much I liked the show. I shared it all over FaceBook, and I liked the episodes-- they showed up on FaceBook too. Because of this, that's how I memorized the day I started liking them(I even remember one friend getting mad at me, for plastering it all over his news feed) Unfortunately though, as much as I liked GameGrumps, I could never pinpoint who exactly was talking and it got me frustrated. The only person I knew of was Egoraptor, and that's because like many of you, I saw his animations. I still couldn't tell who was talking and it really bothered me. I watched one episode of their Nintendo Land series, before going back and trying to watch from the beginning. I saw a bit of Kirby Super Star, and then I gave up for some reason. I stopped watching GameGrumps and discovered a different channel called BrainsScratchComms. I would elaborate on that too, but that would ruin the flow, and I think you're more interested in my GameGrumps story. I hate to say this, but Jon's leave is what made me start watching the show again. I saw it all over my FaceBook news feed, and I instantly watched the Ode To Jon video. After that, I watched the start of the Danny Era every day, except for Steam Train, which was still universally hated at the time. Never really had a problem with Danny, but I have to say I preferred their Super Mario Bros 2 USA playthrough over their Punch-Out! one. I gave up at Mega Man 2 Part 3. I just lost interest in the games they were playing, and I would occasionally go back to the channel and watch series, before dropping them. I never really finished any after those. In fact, you could say Super Mario Bros 2. USA was the first Let's Play I actually finished watching. With the start of Super Mario Sunshine, and the fact I had just began my School Holiday-- I was so pumped up and began watching it daily. I watched until Part 25, where I again got bored of it. After that I watched Strider Part 1 and VVVVVV Part 1 (the first Steam Train video I ever finished) The latter I had on 3DS, and was interested to see what they had to say about the game, but I gave up after Part 1, and took yet another hiatus from the channel. This kept continuing. I  gave up on Super Mario Bros 3 after Part 1, and I gave up on Batman Part 1. I then took a lengthy hiatus from the channel, until  I saw that they were playing Wind Waker, and that was a game I really wanted to play myself, and I had seen NintendoCapriSun play a few parts of it before, so I gave that a watch and I was hyped over GameGrumps again(Forgotten what episode I watched it to but I'll  edit this when I find out) I also watched The Amazing Frog? and to this day that's still my favourite Dan Era episode, because of how fun the game looked, how much fun THEY looked like they were having, and the whole Crown chase scene. I was more hooked on GameGrumps than ever, and I started watching Super Mario World all the way up to Part 11, before dropping it. I also began Super Metroid  all the way up to Part 7, before dropping that too. When Jingel Grumps started, so did Silent Hill Shattered Memories, and it seemed intriguing from what I had read in The Official Nintendo Magazine years ago, but I wasn't really a fan of horror games, so I watched the entire series, and it was the first GameGrumps series I ever saw fully.
