Final Numbers for 2019
It's the end of another year, so I thought I'd make this an annual thing by sharing the numbers as we count down to midnight!
It's been another great year, and I'm looking forward to seeing how things progress into the new year! Here are the numbers for the last 365 days:
- snarkqueen went on YouTube to eat The World's Hottest Chocolate
- Vat19 shared that YouTube video, netting me nearly 1,000 views
- snarkqueen raised $1,260 for Children's National in D.C.
- That's $235 more than last year
- Gamer Reverie had 36 blog entries this year, including this one
- snarkqueen gave away 20+ games
- The Gamer Reverie blog found its way onto Patreon and Reddit
- As of December 18th, Extra Life as a whole had raised $14 million for the year!
Those are some great numbers! Despite those numbers, I have plans to reshape my gaming blog to better reflect why I write about games. Extra Life is why I started it, but it isn't the only reason why I continue to fill it with content. I hope to make Gamer Reverie into its own identity in the coming year, with its own voice and defined objectives. And reader rewards. Don't let me forget about those, would you?
Thank you to the donors, friends, supporters, fans, communities, families and random gamers who (un)knowingly helped make 2019 another great year. I wish you all the best in the coming year, and I hope you'll continue this journey with me as Gamer Reverie transitions into something new for the coming decade.

Weekend Update: LOTRO, God of War
That was remarkably nice and gentle, Elrond.
Good job with the bad news for Snarkqueen.
When you've spent weeks grinding the Anniversary Scavenger Hunt, it can definitely feel like a few thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye! But those sweet, sweet rewards were very much worth it, and I feel very accomplished for having completed the vast majority of it with only a little help.
In other news, YES -- that is a character named Snarkqueen. She is on the Arkenstone server, and I hope to use her for future LOTRO-themed blog entries. She is a High Elf Warden and probably won't get as much game time as I'd like simply because I enjoy playing alongside the Away Shall Fade kin on Landroval. (You guys are awesome.) I just didn't have any open character slots over there.
The monthly feature entry is on schedule for the 18th, though the cough/sniffles/sneezing I've developed may or may not interfere with that. This is what I get for going to a doctor's office for an annual exam.
My husband has also asked me to play God of War so he has someone to talk to about it, so I'm going to give that a go in the coming days, too! He said it was hard for him to play on Normal, and that I should play on Easy. That worries me because he usually likes hard games. Anyone out there have experiences with the game to share?
