A couple weeks ago my uncle unexpectedly passed away. I was devastated to learn I wouldn’t make it in time to say goodbye so I wanted to tribute him in my own terms…

Completed 50% of all Trackmania² Valley tracks on @maniaexchange.bsky.social . 🎉 Despite a few relatively less-active months, this has still been a big push this year, and the bi-monthly random track streams have been a big help.

A table showing distribution of medals across the 8,246 Trackmania² Valley Tracks I have completed and the +/- change from the start of the year, as well as a graph showing the number of tracks per month I completed so far this year.

Happy 18 years today to the Yogscast channel! Here are some memories old and mostly new that no where near encompass all the brilliant people involved and amazing stuff we’ve got to do together over the years. To many years more!

Simon and Lewis sit at desks in the Yogscast office, laughing, being filmed.

Completed my 8,000th TrackMania² Valley track on stream today! 🥳 and getting closer to 50%. 9,000 might be in reach at the end of the year but depends on how lazy I get lol.

Please share this one.

$HEY YOU! YES YOU! TAKE THIS SHIT OUT OF LINKS! example.com/article{?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=emai} /youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcC{?si=Aa1Uc_fRHXC0ay85} These are source identifiers Source identifiers are used to track your activity on a site.Where you came from, what device you use, and even who you talk to. Whether it's written clearly in the url or tied to a random string of characters, it's assigned to your activity. When you send a link containing a source identifier to somebody and they click it, it signals to the website that you two are connected. And that data goes right back to the website operators, and thus their advertisers. Whenever you select "share" or "copy link" on a social app or website, it creates a link like this. If you give even the smallest shit about online privacy, it's important to remove them. Everything after the "?" symbol can be removed without issue, especially sections starting with "si=" or "utm _source="$

Finally got fibre, from 60 to 900mbps, a x15 increase on what I used to have... not living in the stone age anymore lol. Hopefully I can stream some Valley sessions or Crash Bandicoot time trials or something without issues... but gonna give it a bit to settle in first.

Just seen my YouTube channel has passed 100,000 views (specifically on 31st March, 2025). Considering it's just a vault of commentary-less personal bests (mostly individual levels) and the fact I'm not trying to grow it in any way, it's really cool that so many people have watched. Thank you 💜

When I first played Crash 4 on PS4 it took me over 80 hours to 106% it. Now I have a new PC that can run the PC version, I went for it again and took less than 19 hours! Just a small improvement 😄

Screenshot of the save screen on Crash Bandicoot 4: It's About Time showing a complete 106% save file with an in-game time of 18 hours, 43 minutes and 53 seconds.

TrackMania Nations ESWC 100% ✅ That's all of the classic TM games revisited and completed! I wish I had played these as a kid but I'm happy to have experienced them now and done properly instead of just playing the tracks in United Forever.

TrackMania Sunrise eXtreme 100%! Despite not being the biggest fan of Island I still thoroughly enjoyed this game. The Serie Cups are great, though I found them very easy except for one in the Platform campaign. Somehow I got Summit's cup first try, but found Peak's cup to be the most difficult.

The Official Campaign screen showing all of the available medals and cups being collected.
There are no Author Medals for Platform and Crazy modes (though Crazy tracks have Author Times that I have beaten), and there are no Serie Cups for Puzzle, Stunts and Crazy modes.
(I'm using a custom graphic for the medals where it shows all of them and not just replacing the Gold Medal with the Author Medal).

Been playing TrackMania Original the last 2 weeks and finally completed it. Started off disliking stunts as StuntA1 was very annoying but thankfully it got better later on. Perfecting the Super Survival mode was a lot of fun! (made a custom graphic to make Author Medals easier to see)

A display of all of the medals collected for the Race, Puzzle, Platform and Stunts modes. Gold is the highest medal for Platform mode.

I have this extremely long-term project where I'm finishing as many TrackMania² Valley tracks as I can. For me it's one of those games for when I'm feeling down or just want to relax, so it's a fun thing to do to keep it fresh. Of course I have a spreadsheet for it 😄: docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

The main sheet which was recently updated to clean things up.
Table to the left shows the overall stats and yearly stats, line graph in the middle shows tracks completed over time, and the chart to the right shows the medal distribution.

The new Missing Author Medals sheet. Lists the track, MX ID, author medal time, my best time, the delta, and a reason why, such as a track being broken by a game update.
