>"I feel like you read red SCs even when you're not doing SC readings. I think that if I'm going to be read, I'd better make it something funny. But whenever I attempt to write one, I wonder if I'm crossing a line and my hand stops. I've been watching your streams for years now but I still can't think of something that would cross your line but still stand within the realm of decency. What should I do?"
>I got a lot of marshmallows concerning SCs. "Lately there's been fewer SC reading zatsudans than before so it feels a bit lonely" (TL Note: this is a quote from my mallow btw) "Why haven't you been doing SC readings lately?" and the like. Quite a lot of these.
>So I put some thought into it.
>Interesting superchat... Well, the idea of "interesting" is different for everyone. You can't know until you try... That being said, it is a large sum of money. So even if I do feel like I have to read them...
>Right now, I'm trying to keep my throat healthy and in proper condition, and my concentration lasts for around 2 hours. So my current personal policy is to keep my stream length to around that. That's why I've been focusing more on the actual game part of the stream rather than the SC readings.
>I'm sorry, I really am. And while I don't read them out on stream, I read them all after the stream is over. But I get it, you guys want them to be read, right?
>This is something that's been bothering me for a while too, really. When I did post-stream SC readings every time, there were people who went "I want to watch the stream archive already but Nenechi's reading SCs so I can't do that, would be nice if she split them into separate streams or just stopepd them", and now that they're gone others feel sad about it.
>It's a tough tightrope to balance. It really is.
>That's why right now, well, I try to react if there's an SC passing through when I'm reading chat, also during the ending, you know how they show up on the bar on top of chat? I try to read those too.
>You're right though, I haven't done a proper slow SC reading for a while now. Sorry, guys.
>But, well, how do I put it? Remember how a while ago my streaming schedule was really haphazard? Way more than it is now? That fairly long stretch of time when I would sometimes even disappear from twitter? When I think back to those times...
>I know that some of you feel inconvenienced by it, but I personally am patting myself on the back for being able to regularly do something fun every day right now.
>It's not because I can't be assed to read them or that I hate you guys, it's more that right now, I'm prioritising the main stream content at the moment.
>I feel like some of you kind of realised that "oh Nenechi's not really in a superchat reading phase right now" and switched to membership gifting, actually.
>But you're right, I do still feel like I should do SC readings sometimes. I'm not any less grateful to you guys than ever. Yeah, one need satisfied means another need ignored. It's hard to satisfy everyone. I know it's important to do both, but...
In the past I was under the impression that I had to make my streams as long as I could, but I've learned the extent of my attention span in the last few years. If the alternative is half-assedly streaming when I'm already tired and sleepy, I would rather end the stream on a good note, then take a bath, have some personal time, do off-stream work and such. I feel like I've found a good balance right now, so would you guys mind putting up with it for the time being? Pretty please! Plsplspls!
>I think my current pace is pretty good, actually!
>So yeah, when I'm doing a comfy late night stream like now, then I'm prioritising my communication with you guys. Late night streams are like this. For evening streams, I'd appreciate it if you guys treated it as the time when I just get to have fun playing games.
>Do I really give off an impression of someone who only reads red SCs? Well, I guess when someone drops a huge sum like that all of a sudden it makes me go "Ah crap I gotta react!", that's true. Sorry about it, I apologise if it came off like I'm biased like that. But look, wouldn't you also twitch if someone passed a 10k bill to you? It's kind of like that. Right? I'm a human too, so forgive me. I answered honestly, so you'll forgive me, right? I'm not even pretending otherwise.
I hope that clears it up for you guys, it definitely cleared it up for me.
