While I am happy to accept cheers and subscriptions, I'd much rather you donated that money directly to my Extra Life campaign! [Extra Life](https://www.extra-life.org/participant/BatteryH) will receive 100% of your donated amount in this fashion, and you can even do a $5 (or larger) montlhly donation. All money received will be donated directly to Extra Life as well, however donating directly will increase the amount that gets to the kids (no middle-men). Thank you for your consideration.

Fundraising for the 2022 Extra Life Campaign has started! This year's goal is to raise $1,500 for Children's Hospital of New Orleans. [100% of your donation](https://www.extra-life.org/participant/BatteryH) goes directly to helping the kids, with zero to overhead, administrators salaries, or fundraising. Visit my page for more information and a list of giveaways and events I'm doing this year, including 24 hours of stream between October 29th & 30th. Thank you for your generosity! **#FTK** Since 2008, Extra Life has raised over $70 million for the hospitals of Children's Miracle Network, including over $16 million in 2020. Extra Life Marathon Weekend is TBD!

**Respect for all** Play nice in my sandbox - no racism/sexism/anyisms. **Spam is a mystery meat** Keep it in the can, lest you get the perma-ban. **No linking** Due to the rise in spam related links, the ban has dropped. If there's something you want to link, ask me nicely. (Taking advantage will get you banned.) **Trolls belong under rickety bridges** Not here, lest the dawn take you. **No politics or religion** This is where I go to escape all of that, we have plenty of other things to discuss. **I do keep an eye on chat** Please, let me know what you think, what you're doing, what you'd like to see! Constructive criticism is always welcome, even if I don't agree.

I've been currently streaming the following: European Truck Simulator 2/American Truck Simulator Two Point Campus Farming Simulator 2022 Construction Simulator Brewmaster Beer Brewing Simulator World War 2 Rebuilder

**Who are you?** I'm the snarky old man your mother warned you about. **Where are you from?** I currently reside in the Gulf Coast area of Louisiana. **Do you have any other social media presence?** Yep. [Twitter](https://twitter.com/BatteryH) **Why do you stream?** Both for Extra Life (see the Extra Life section), and because I enjoy playing games and interacting with people. **Can I just lurk and not say anything?** Sure, but you'll have more fun if you chat back at me - just follow the rules. **Who made that awesome intro/outro/break music?** It is probably one of two people. Either [Teknoaxe] (https://www.youtube.com/user/teknoaxe) or [Ross Bugden](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQKGLOK2FqmVgVwYferltKQ) - both are outstanding composers in their own right. **What does the [Silent] mean in your description?** It means I'm playing without speaking, although I will respond when able in chat. Usually, it means my wife or daughter is sleeping in the next room. Sadly, they will not allow me to nail the soundproofing to the walls. **How many Hawaiian shirts do you own?** That is a closely guarded secret - to the point I have them stashed around the house away from my wife's eyes. **I'm a developer/publisher and would like you to look at and/or stream my game. How do I reach you?** For business inquiries, e-mail to battery_h@hotmail.com
