###Howdy, people! Hi! Welcome to my corner of the internet! This is where I stream simply for enjoyment as a hobby. Here, I usually do various online first-person shooters, especially MW2. I love videogames in general, though, and I will play anything that interests me. ###Schedule Due to a hectic real life (uni + work), I cannot keep an exact stream schedule. I would rather stream with energy than be consistent with low enthusiasm. That being said, count on 3-4 streams per week, with times usually catering to both NA and EU. Meaning, late morning starts for NA, which means evening starts for EU. ###Commands For further information on the channel, I've made a convenient page on Google Docs full of commands to use in chat. That can be found **[HERE](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1OYxr_YvFvpSOfvrqTor8ZxRzzX5acQQG7KnzcwX3HIM/pub)**. ###Twitch Partner On April 12, 2018, Twitch made the biggest mistake in the website's history by allowing me to become a Twitch Partner. In all seriousness, this wouldn't have happened without everyone's help here. I strive to be the best broadcaster I can be, every day, so you guys can continue to be entertained. Thanks again, guys! ###Channel Graphics and Alerts Do you love how my sub alerts aren't stock Streamlabs effects or Twitter gifs? That's because [**YoHoudini**](https://www.twitch.tv/yohoudini) had custom created all of it from scratch. What a guy!

Click the link if you want to [Help Out](https://twitch.streamlabs.com/rocobonnaro)! -------------------------------- I started this stream refusing donations for the first 18 months, because I didn't want to make anyone feel required to pay money to enjoy watching videogames. This is still true, but some people kindly ask to donate anyways. This is for those who want that. All donations go towards improving the stream quality as well as maintenance. All of this is really incredibly humbling, so thank you very much. If you are donating because of our **Black Ops 1 Server**, please state so in the donation message, so I can set aside those funds for the server rental. Donation Sound Clips -------------------------------- I am still working on adding more, but so far: **$2+ or 100+ bits**: Take that for data! **$10+ or 1000+ bits**: RE4 Merchant **$50+ or 5000+ bits**: Duke Nukem's Approval **$250+**: Donation Tactical Nuke (Choose a game for me to play on stream*) *Disclaimer: I have veto rights on donated games, meaning I can decline to play (for example, visual novels). If such a rare case does occur, the donator is more than welcome to choose another game. However, I do have an open mind with most games, and **I will give them a fair shot**.

Common sense rules apply, such as: + No advertising (of any sort). This is your only warning. Too many people on Twitch try any tactic to advertise, so the first time is a permaban. + Jokes are fine, but please do not come into chat and post intentionally awkward comments or start drama (this includes politics). + Please do not trashtalk other streamers/Youtubers. It's unwanted drama. + Stream sniping or session joining is lame. Don't do it! (WaW and BO1 are exceptions) + Don't ask to be a mod. Your odds of becoming one are decreased if you ask. + Please don't spam messages, links, emotes, etc. Links are fine, but they better be appropriate. + Please do not use racist or homophobic slurs. + Please don't tell me what to do in my streams. It's rude. This includes telling me what weapons to use, what characters to use, what games to play, how to play a certain game, backseating, etc -- just be courteous. This is not an exhaustive list, and my judgement trumps everything. However, in essence, just don't be a jerk and treat others with respect, and we won't have any issues. I play games to relax and have fun -- and I'm sure many of you out there game and watch for the same reasons. Also, like any other stream, when I play single-player games, please do not backseat my playthroughs. You were allowed to figure out how to solve the game's puzzles and bosses on your own when you played, so it's only fair if I am allowed the same thing. Thank you for your understanding.

I have big time interests in videogames, beer, and especially sports. My big 3 sports interests are football/soccer/whatever, ice hockey, and baseball. However, I watch most other sports on a decent basis. Sports are almost always a good way to start a conversation here. I am starting to round up a Bachelor's Degree in Mathematics (Statistics), with a background in both German and Japanese. At times, juggling studies and doing this is a fine balance, but I wouldn't trade it for anything. I enjoy both sides of my life. Also, I can be a beer snob. Feel free to inquire about craft beer in particular. I don't get to talk enough about craft beer that much on Twitch.

**Where are you from?** I live in the US state of Arkansas. **Why don't you sound like you're from Arkansas?** I spent most of my life growing up near Chicago, IL. **Why is German/Japanese in some games you play??** I use videogames to keep up with languages I study, especially German. So sometimes non-English will sneak into stream. If language matters to gameplay (like story) I will mark the stream in its appropriate language. **Can I join your lobby/party?** No. Unless I specifically request help, I almost always prefer to game on stream alone, because it's much easier to concentrate chat and your messages in real time. It's nothing personal. **Can I send a friend request on Steam/PSN?** If I have to add one viewer, I have to add you all. It would be unfair to those who I can't add because my list would eventually be full. PSN has the same limits. Therefore, I keep my friends' list limited to ones I know in real life. Again, it's nothing personal. **Why no song requests or music in your stream?** Two reasons. First, I play a lot of FPS games, and one strong part about doing well in those games is listening to what is around you. I cannot hear footsteps or grenades nearly as well as usual if I had music running. Also, secondly, I've been in lots of streams where people complain about all sorts of music that is played. I'd like to avoid that. **You love beer, but you never drink on stream. Why?** I am always trying to work on my commentary, as I always see room for improvement. As such, I would rather not add an extra hurdle with alcohol. However, I have experience with beer from around the world, so feel free to ask for a beer recommendation. I'll be glad to help. **You play exclusively on PC. Do you hate consoles?** Of course not. Consoles, and using a controller, are perfectly viable ways to play videogames. Ultimately, the best console is the one you can party up with your friends on. Since I have no friends, I play on PC.

1. When in doubt, just shoot. 2. Almost all walls are made of wet cardboard or papier-mâché. If someone is on the other side of a wall, just shoot. 3. Don't knife. You have alligator arms, and the game gives you a rubber knife. Instead, just shoot. 4. Use the UAV. When you get close to a dot on the radar, just shoot. 5. Above all else, just shoot.

BTTV really does make Twitch better. Download the extension [HERE](http://www.nightdev.com/betterttv/) . Then, immediately, enable Darken TTV to get rid of that white background and save some strain on your eyes. Current BTTV emotes enabled: TwostedBaby - My favorite new emote. ravageNukem - For nuclears and MW2 nukes. rocoHacks - Because one would have to be as dumb as LaVar Ball to think I hack. OMEGALUL - A few viewers use this anyways, I'll add it in. xcalHustle - The new gif everyone seems to like lately

In progress. I need to add nearly 700 beers, so mind the dust. Feel free to ask about anything from the list [HERE](https://untappd.com/user/RocoBonnaro/beers). Seeing a full list requires you to sign up (?!?!), but anyone can search various lists, or for a specific beer. I'll work on this so the list is visible to everyone.
