Awesome! Thanks.

 

Hi, guys. My girlfriend and I just found out about the game. We both love the concept, we love MOBAS... We really want to give it a go. What do we have to do?

Like a good ADHD guy, I forgot about this, hahahahahahaha.

I'm so happy!

Give a try to the co-op missions only after you finish all campaigns or it will ruin some stuff for you.

Awesome, dude! You won't regret it. And if you do, blame Blizzard, not me, hahaha.

Haha! I had my chance at competitive play the 2010s! StarCraft 2 is an awesome game, it does offer a lot for strategy and flavor, I also played the original one when I was younger by the way. You should give the sequel a try, it's free to play now and it's aging well.

I played StarCraft 2. :) I'm in love with that game.

I love Jessica, I have supported her with one dollar a month for many years in her Patreon. It's not much but it's what I can give and she does such a great work, so I would love to be able to read her book. Here goes nothing!

Quirky fake quote from the book:

"When you have ADHD it's like having a super powerful brain but it's always out of control, so it's not really yours if you think about it... It has a will of its own".

Fake chapter title and summary from the book:

Chapter 34: how to stop playing videogames like it's some kind of addiction.

This chapter goes into detail as to why ADHD brains have a tendency to engage into gaming and how some of us play day and night never to be seen by our family and friends. It then goes on to give us tools to fight back this tendency as we need to sometimes go outside and have human interaction, shower and more.

The most compelling part is when it says that at the end of the day if you love gaming so much, then you must have a job to be able to buy games. Then it goes ahead and admits that that last thing was a joke but you do need a job to buy food and have a family.

Unsung hero award:

My unsung hero is most definitely a heroine, my wife. We met when we were 18, now we are 30 and living a humble but beautiful life. She started saving my life from the very beginning not only making me immensely happy but also helping me face my fears and struggles. I couldn't have graduated from High School without her helping me study mathematics, I had always been terrible at them. She has ever since continued to support me at every step of the way in both school and job and even house chores. At age 23 we discovered I had ADHD and she quickly started reading all she could to help me in my day to day as well as finding the right treatment. She became an expert, she's the one who actually found Jessica's YouTube channel. At age 28 we discovered she also has ADHD and confirmed she has bipolar disorder, something we had been suspecting for years... so this whole time she had been fighting not only to help me but also against her own ADHD and bipolar, without even knowing the ADHD part. She is the best person I have ever known, she has both helped me become the man I am today and has helped me feel as safe as a child and I would give my life for her without a second thought.

Fake book cover of the book:

For this I wanted to recreate how my notebooks always look because I can never take proper notes. I always fidget around drawing or writing random stuff... I always thought I was undisciplined but It was my ADHD.

Meme of the book:

Done! Sorry, I'm using these as a checklist but I don't have anything about the meme except it made me laugh when I made it and I sure hope it makes you laugh as well.

ADHD character cosplay/art:

I'm no artist and certainly not a cosplayer so I went ahead and did my best to find some AI to do it for me but they are all so stupid (or maybe I'm the one too dumb to write the right promt). I gave my best trying to draw something with Paint but it's simply too horrible, haha, so I went back to AI and failed again. Sorry, I'll post the drawing later if I manage to create something.

Wildcard challenge: name weird places where you may store the book from the contest if you win and you are distracted enough. Bonus points if it has happened before and even more if you have a picture.

I once put a book I was reading in the refrigerator. I noticed immediately after closing the door but still... Gosh... Haha.

Hope you all liked my stuff. :) it was fun to make. Took a good few hours, though, I had to play videogames in between, hahaha.
