## Transcript

I'm not going to say people like my stream better, but I do happen to have right here a Twippy runner up on Best Streamer. Well, George, do I think I will beat you in the majority of these competitions? No, but I can guarantee I will have more fun. I can guarantee that my half the stream will look better, probably not technically better, but there will be more smiles on my face. But I don't know. I think at the end of the day, you may blow me away with points or competitions won, the viewers will have enjoyed me being there. And, you know, you can take your points and your victory, but I'm going to be the real winner at the end of the day.
