Some updates:
• I think I have fixed the MIC issue.
• I am being told that users are not getting notifications when I "GO LIVE!" - I can't find a way to fix this - I think it's in your settings.
• I have disabled my Twitch account which means I need to update the "API" for Streamlabs and I have done that for the WISH LIST and DONATIONS option - someone here asked me to fix that ASAP which I have done so if you wanna donate, go for it! haha - however, if you don't have access to that stuff, do contact me and we can do an alternative way.
• I'm trying to find a way to get "1080p" quality but struggling with that.
• I enabled the NVENG option and the CPU usage dropped from 30% to 3%
• Had a buddy watch my streams last night (all of them) and he said it was PERFECT
With that said, please note that I"m really trying to sort out the technical issues first before I do anything / concentrate on anything else.
I honestly feel like I'm starting from scratch using a platform that doesn't make anyone's life EASIER - like, with Twitch, when you go live, people get notifications - with YOUTUBE - they don't and it doesn't look like there is an option to enable it unless you HOST AN EVENT - for me, every stream is an event.
• Struggling to get to 100 subscribers - that's when apparently you can really start editing stuff on the profile (YouTube Gaming LIVE!) which you didn't have on Twitch - so it's not really geared towards customization and gamers IMO.
Any thoughts, comments, ideas or suggestions, please let me know.

After a massive struggle - I've fixed the "SUBSCRIBER" and "DONATION" alerts.
The tests work - we just need to see if it works when I'm actually streaming.
Remember, bookmark this URL: https://gaming.youtube.com/user/medicnick83/live - I can only change it when I hit 100 subscribers

Hi all,
By popular request - I've created my own server on discord: https://discord.gg/GMtzYZk (Set link to never expire)
I've spent the better part of the morning setting up the channel and playing with the settings.
You guys are more than welcome to join it and give feedback, comments etc and I'll adjust as needed.
Please note that I have set the verification level to LOW which means that to join the server you'd need to "verified your e-mail on the discord account" which is normal these days.
I wanted to keep the group as "South African" as possible.

Hi all,
So! Tonight I did a gameplay session via a live stream of Ghost Recon: Wildlands - what makes the stream "special" is that I did it as soon as I could after the release of the game showing off alot of parts of the game as I could and then more.
What I want to know from you guys is your thoughts on the Stream, I've had a few more views than normal and got a 'few' subscribers but of all the streams, tonight was special - For those who didn't see it, check out my signature for the link and go see the latest stream which BTW was 4 hours long!
I'm enjoying this to be honest, but I love interacting with people - I know that many of us don't exactly have FIBRE connections but I'm sure that as it starts rolling out, streaming WILL become popular.
I've been doing this now for going on a month or so and as you can see, I'm very active - not active playing ALOT of games, but I'm getting there - remember, it's casual fun gaming - the interactions are there - you just need to use it.
I was told that I will probably get bored and ditch this - but those who know me know I'm going to give this a good hard PUSH - but I need your support obviously!
As always; Thoughts? Comments etc...
Come on guys, hit that "SUBSCRIBE" feature followed by the DONATE/TIP LOL

Please tell us when in the evening, as I always check random times then the stream is offline.

Suggestion if I may: Login to the discord server
But I generally stream all the time now - I am actually just waiting for "The Division" servers to come back up and then I'm gonna play and SUBSCRIBE because if you set your notifications ON, then you get a message whenever I start streaming.

COMPETITION TIME!
Hi all,
I'm going to be running a competition over the next 2 weeks (1 per week) where you can win a R250 voucher from Beerhouse.
Don't know Beerhouse?
SO HOW CAN YOU WIN THE VOUCHERS?
Easy! (it really is!)
1. You have to subscribe to my YouTube Gaming Channel and I highly suggest you put ON your notifications because when I stream (you'll get a e-mail) that I've gone LIVE!
2. The next step is to join in on the stream and interact either be it by joining in on the CHAT and/or the DISCORD (you can voice or normal chat) - the more you interact on the streams, the better chance you have to win!
Easy!
Then, next week, I'll sit with my MODS and we will choose a winner.
I have other surprises coming... but let's do it one at a time eh!

Just streamed a session of "Path of Exile" and I really enjoyed it - more than I thought I would.
I can see how people say it def gives Diablo 3 a run for it's money and BTW: PoE is FREE!

Hi all,
I gave away 1x Beerhouse voucher this morning to a member on another forum so there there is 1 more Beerhouse voucher to win; and how to win it is easy (mentioned above)
However, one of my subscribers who is a big supporter has given me 5x copies of Shadow Complex Remastered on STEAM to give away worth R159 each.
Same story as before; you need to SUBSCRIBE to my channel and either join the discord and interactive or when I stream (so turn your notifications on) interact with me via that Youtube Gaming CHAT and then I'll be giving the codes away randomly.
