Hello out there...
...and welcome to a poorly constructed introduction post from someone who has no clue what they're doing.
I'm Ismay, known across the internet as aTeacupGamer. I'm 23, Scottish, and a provider of games-based entertainment.
The Content
Primarily I'm known to stream games every day from 3pm GMT on my Twitch channel of (surprisingly) aTeacupGamer or uploading the content later onto youtube at (annoyingly) TeacupGamer. The coming and going of that first "a" is the bane of my existence.
However, as of this year, I've ventured into the world of podcasting, having debuted my D&D-based show "Crit Chat" where a rotating cast of Dungeon Masters get together and talk about the finer points of creating and running a game of Dungeons and Dragons... and only getting distracted 80% of the time.
The Dream
On a less formal and more personal note; I'm just another nerd with the dream of earning a living doing what I love most. Having suffered a variety of mental illnesses throughout my life, I would like to say that I'm finally done with not believing in myself and what I'm capable of.
So this is my attempt at selling what I got: I'm terrible at games, but I'm funny so fuck it. I have very little filter, but I try and use that for good. And I'm an american-accented scottish loudmouth, who is passionate to a fault.
So, hopefully I'll see you around. And hopefully you'll enjoy that!
Peace, love, and the nerd life to you all x

@ateacupgamer Wow you are beautiful. Pleasure to have a gamer girl here. I love gaming but I have no idea which game you are talking about. Lol. Hope to see some more of you. Anytime in your service here. For a guide on how things work here see my blog

Well, thank you! I'm a full-time games nerd, so I've played a wide stretch of games! From tabletop games, to computer games I end up tattooing on myself!
And thank you for the recommendation! I'll give it a read, because lord knows I need the help!
Anytime dear. Have you played need for speed most wanted, Max Payne?? Love your tattoo.
Ohh, neither annoyingly! My racing-game skills include throwing controllers at the wall out of frustration about how much I suck at them!
Lol. You speak your heart. No filter. Love. Peace.
Tried to filter in the past... Failed... Happy just being myself instead!
Just be what you love to.
Welcome!
Thank you for the welcome!
Awesome, welcome to Steemit! Cool to see a DND fan join; I dabble myself, thought haven't DM'd as of yet! I'm looking forward to seeing more of your posts :) upped, resteemed and followed :)
Many thanks, my man! And I can highly recommend DMing if you enjoy seeing something you love get trampled into dust...
...But really, I do enjoy it! If you get a chance to check out the podcast, I would like to count it as an interesting listen whether you're considering going into DMing or just have an interest in D&D!
Nice to meet you! You'll like Steemit, I'm sure. Lots of friendly people.
Did you know that Vin Diesel is a big D&D gamer? I don't know if he plays now, but he certainly used to.
Good to meet you too! And yes! I saw a "D&Diesel" video and my heart grew four sizes that day! I love knowing about people who don't look like your typical D&D players!
I used to be one of those people until my arms started getting filled up with gaming tattoos!
I used to too, but I never got any tattoos.
Love games. Welcome. I'm a nerd from the USA. You look great. Never heard of a tea cup gamer before. Amazing. Love tea, too.
Ahaha! Thank you! I thought the name was apt - I'm british and tiny. Hence, the teacup!
Tiny and cute. Perfect.
I'm a big fan of Mario and Sonic and strategy games.
Love car racing, too.
I never got into Sonic, myself! But I'm a sucker for Mario and strategy. I have sunk more time into Civilization than is healthy!
It might be a little healthy if you're sharing the experience with others and having fun and stuff. Was really addicted to War Craft in like 2011.
Ooooh I had friends that were addicted as hell to War Craft! I've gone back to my roots recently and I'm back playing the updated version of Runescape; the game that ate my childhood!
What is Runescape like? Sounds interesting.
So old, so polygonal, and so much nostalgia!
It's basically a skill development game. Think of a smaller-scale WoW!
Welcome! With a bit of work, you'll do great here! :)
Thank you! That's the hope, anyway!
Welcome to steemit :) hope to see a genuine content from your end. 😊
The first episode of my weekly podcast is in the middle of being uploaded as we speak!
Welcome to Steemit Ismay !
Thank you! Looking forward to seeing what it has to offer!
Do you ever try video game emulators? I have some for Nintendo, Sega, and Sony games, on my laptop. Good way to review games.
I've tried a couple! But I always feel a strange guilt for using them. Damn my overactive conscience...
Welcome to Steemit. I am sure you will enjoy the Steemit Platform.
Thank you! I hope I can get into this crazy world!
I am sure you will enjoy Steemit👍 I have just followed you on steemit so we can earn steem together. Have a great weekend!
Followed you back! Lets go down this crazy road together!
If you ever have any questions about steemit or crypto feel free to ask. I look foward to your future posts on steemit. Have a great weekend.
Hi Ismay, welcome to Steemit! I'm excited to see what you produce here. I've only been here a few days but I'm already so excited about the little communities and how kind everyone is to one another. Totally feel you on being passionate to a fault, by the way. Not the worst fault to have.
Great to e-meet you! <3 Lexi
I'm excited to see what I come up with too! Everyone seems pretty damn cool so far, so I've got a god feeling about this!
Brilliant to find D&D players in the community. Welcome to the club! ^^ Maybe someday we can gather people in Steemit and start doing online sessions of Dungeons and Dragons. What do you think?
By the way, I checked your tattoos and I loved the Skyrim one. Please continue posting, and let people hear your Thu'um!
I am always up for more Dungeons and Dragons, no matter where or when!
Nice introduction and welcome , this place is awesome and the more you put out the more you get back. There will be times where it feels like you have thrown your post, thoughts feelings out the window and not got anything but thats only temporary. I saw you in the Dischord chat so you know where its at . Buckle up its gonna be an awesome ride.
Thank you! I'm a stubborn one, so hopefully that will help me stick to this!
Welcome and hello! DND is fun indeed. Especially the role playing and less rulesy games :)
Did you ever play Dungeon Squad?
No? What is this new avenue into Nerdiness? ;)
Oh man it’s so good. Around 10 pages of rules, easy system with Warrior, Wizard, and Explorer classes matched to various shapes of dice depending on your allocation of skills... super quick to generate a campaign and easy for kids and adults.
You can also modify existing materials from dnd such as maps and monsters, but make it simpler to focus on rp instead of getting bogged in the rule books.
Trying to game more, relax more, and chill on steemit :D Thanks for getting here. This is a cool place
Gaming and relaxing don't always go hand in hand, I've found!
