| The stream was a complete failure, the linking of the ATEM Mini's caused there to be a delay with the camera feeds, the transcoders kept crashing and strm7 was a big problem because it's so underpowered.

| The amount of problems we had with getting everything set up was immense, the stream server didn't want to work and audio and patches were a joke, in the end we started roughly 45 minutes later and we all had a good evening except for [[Ben Allen]] who was stressed to no end and worrying about everything. All in all, it was a good stream and we had fun. I unfortunately didn't get to test out my streaming software as we bypassed the server in the end.

| This was the first time I was able to use my new software I had created, "Streamer", and it simplified Livestream Distribution to the point that anyone could then use it. I wasn't able to stay until the end as I had packing and a train to catch later that day but in the end, it all worked.

===Placement Year (2023-2024)===
This is where the timeline becomes a bit fuzzy as I was in Manchester on placement and often came back to take part in productions happening despite not being on the crew list so this may be inaccurate but I will be assuming I helped every time I came to York.

| Oh Roses, it really is Stockholm Syndrome as we always suffer from it yet can't get enough of it, this was filled with enough caffeine to kill an elephant and that was consumed in the night time by me and that was a mistake but it got Roses going on the Friday at least. Lancaster didn't give us access to the MCR space until 9PM on the Thursday... I was not a happy bunny.
