Well, we’re back! Thanks for sticking with us through the site downtime – a server problem that also just had bad timing right over the holiday season.
And so here’s a new General Chat for the New(ish) Year! What are you looking forward to playing in 2024?
Look at that! Valve just dropped a big Half-Life update on the eve of its 25-year anniversary. So, let’s check out how it plays!
I’ll stream Half-Life at the usual time (12 noon Saturday eastern US time / 5pm in the UK / 6pm Central Europe).
Check the Time & Date.Com website for your local time. See you there!

Ahoy! Clearly I’ve been slacking on the Classic of the Month streams. But I will get back to them at some point, and I feel like streaming something else this weekend. Something VERY Half-Life.
So, you get to pick in the vote! Choose one for me to start streaming at the usual time (12 noon Saturday eastern US time / 5pm in the UK / 6pm Central Europe).

Another year is upon us already! Here’s a new General Chat! Best wishes from me to you for a great 2023!
This year, I’m still hoping that mods I mentioned a year ago see the light of day, like The Core, Dark Matter, Signal Lost, and THWL Tower Source.
I also plan to catch up with mods and games I’ve been wanting to play, like an Alyx replay as well as FMPONE’s Levitation which was released in November.
What are your 2023 resolutions? Or better yet, goals?

2022 has come and (nearly) gone. But before the New Year comes (for most of us) it’s time for the final 2022 Classic of the Month!
I’ll be playing Cayle George’s colorful Big Lolly.
The stream will be this weekend on Saturday December 31st, about 12pm (noon) Eastern US Time (5pm in the UK, 6pm Central Europe).

As usual, time flies by. It seems like I was just streaming Cry of Fear a week ago! But here we are in late November, time for a different Classic of the Month!
I’ll be playing Half-Life: The Infected from a couple years back by Neclipse.
The stream will be this weekend on Saturday November 26th, about 12pm (noon) Eastern US Time (5pm in the UK, 6pm Central Europe).

This year, the Map Labs folks had a great idea – bring back the Hammer Cup, but in mini format! So this Cup was another great partnership with Map Labs that consisted of three mapping challenges, each with a different theme.
Entrants received points for each challenge they entered. At the end of the event, the best 2 points totals from the challenges they entered were added together for each entrant. These totals decided who won the Grand Prizes.
This means that entrants did not have to enter every challenge to win the grand prize but they needed to have entered at least 2 to have a chance of winning the prizes.

The time has come at last. I didn’t ever expect to play this mod game. But you have spoken.
Cry of Fear is the October Classic of the Month. Watch me run. Watch me squeal. Watch me die.
The stream will start this weekend on Saturday October 15th, about 12pm (noon) Eastern US Time (5pm in the UK, 6pm Central Europe). I expect to continue it the following Saturday, same time. I’ll need the week in between to recover.
As usual, the stream will be on the RunThinkShootLive Twitch Channel, and the recording will later be uploaded to the Classic of the Month playlist on the RTSL YouTube channel.

So it’s October already! This month I decided to put the next Classic of the Month to a vote. This time, you get to pick from a big list of mods that are all on the list for future streams, including a spooky choice!
Poll closes in just a few days on October 5th, so hurry up and get your vote in!
