My average viewers is up to 1.36, still a long way from the average of 3 viewers over 30 days.

Vianna hosted me on her channel while she was getting lunch, so a wider variety of people annoyed.

Welcome to wise_panda69 and the viannabot for following me too. Love you all!

To reach affiliate status, I need to stream for 8 hours - that seems doable, only another two hours or so to go. The next hardest is to have an average of 3 viewers. Then to get 50 followers - currently I have 3! (Thanks V and K!)
