I'm doing my best to build a community where I can help beginners learn chess or guitar playing, the aim is to get them to a good enough standard so I can help them find a teacher that can bring them to the next step on their journey.
At the same time I'm working to put all my livestreams from Twitch and my own personal recorded material on Youtube, especially chess and RISK content.
Don't fear taking contact. I don't bite, too hard :)

Hello everybody and I hope you've had very happy holidays and I wish you all a very happy New Year.
Here's a bit of a life update since my last one:
2 months ago I had my back surgery as planned. I was in the hospital at UllevÄl in Oslo for 9 days before I got back home for a few days, with an overnight stay in Kristiansand at the region main hospital where they screwed up bad and only made me furious. Then I had a 3 week stay in a rehabilitation centre, regaining my mobility and preparing to work on getting my strength back.
Before I can go full out into doing that I have to have another surgery on my left elbow, in order to remove the numbness in my left hand and get back the mobility to get back into playing the guitar properly again. When that's finished, I'm going back to Oslo for a check-up, X-ray and consultation with my surgeon and following that I go into full recovery mode, working with my physio on rebuilding my physical health properly.
Soon I'll start creating content again on a more regular basis, though I might drop a video or two until I can get back into full production mode.
Peace out
Tomas

Hello again folks
My back surgery got postponed until October 31st and the house moving is more or less finished, just the odd things that still need to find their way home.
Yesterday I finally got internet in the new home and today I set up a 500/500mbps fibre connection, which will be active in the next few days. I don't expect to do any streaming for now, but I will start to create some content over the next few days and upload to the old Tube. Please bear with me, I'm slow at these things, especially since my studio is still in the ponder phase, i.e. I have no idea yet about how I want to set it up properly.
Thank you for reading this far and staying with me, and please don't let the RISK drag you down.

Hey everybody
Due to my moving house and upcoming back surgery, there's a chance that I won't be able to post any videos at all until I'm back from the butchers bench and started my rehabilitation following the surgery. Also getting set up with a new internet connection is always a pain in the butt and I have no idea when it will get active again.
But so far so good, I really appreciate everyone that's decided to support me by subscribing to my channel and I hope to be able to entertain you before too long. I might have to study my video editing software in order to speed up certain low action parts of my videos, but then again I kind of feel like that's near the cheating territory. Maybe I can get someone to educate me on that part in due time.
Thank you all again, and try to avoid letting the RISK drag you down.
