User blog:Curious Poker Chip/General Update

As some of you know from my venting on The Champions Season 2 thread, I was a little upset over the results, but I also feel like I want to say a couple of things.

First off, for the time being, I am starting to get a little burned out on AGT right now, especially the format of the latest The Champions season and not really having much excitement or anticipation for the acts who advanced, and also the fact that... well... I sometimes get a bit too emotional over the results, especially when some of the contestants who I enjoy fall by the wayside. So, after sleeping on it, I think I have decided that I am probably not going to continue watching AGT: The Champions on television, instead opting to watch the acts on YouTube. I may watch the final preliminary, but the semifinals and finals... ehhhhhhhh? I don't think so.

Now first thing you should know is that my The Champions Season 2 Fantasy Season is 100% without a doubt still going to continue and I will not bow out from it. In fact, I will continue to do Fantasy Seasons because they are something that I have a little bit of control over. I know that all this sounds a little petty and arrogant, but it is not my intention. I just want to try something different.

Probably the reason behind this comes from my autism and me getting way too invested emotionally in some things. I have always loved talent competition shows like Idol or Got Talent, but even from a young age I sometimes took it too far. But I just get way too into these seasons even though I really shouldn't, but at the same time, I know that it is inherent because of my autism. I am not trying to use it as an excuse like a lot of people do especially online, but I just want to explain the situation I am currently in.

So to reiterate, I am going to step away from AGT stuff for a bit since I get way too emotionally invested in it then I should. This however leads to something I have wanted to do for a while.

Initially, I was going to reveal this after Champions 2, but I figured, what the heck.

I am considering making a whole new Wiki a la JayGT and FuzGT to chronicle all my Fantasy Season ventures, but also that is going to be the home of my Britain's Got Talent Fantasy Seasons. I have been wanting to venture forth and expand to other series. I have not made the site yet, but it likely will be called something like ChipGT. I will start with Series 1 and will need judges for them. The primary problem I have however with this idea is that it's a pretty big undertaking to essentially copy the info from the Fantasy Seasons I did here and transcribe them to a new site as well as making all the contestant pages and stuff and I don't think I have the capabilities to do it by myself, but it is something that I think will be fun to do.

Additionally, I plan on doing Season 4 next for AGT Fantasy Seasons and all the judges have already been set in stone for that, but I also plan on doing Season 2, Season 8 and Season 9, since those are the only seasons that have a Hollywood Round instead of a Judge Cuts, and I like Hollywood Round's format over the Judge Cuts.

Anyways, that's all I have to say.
