Hello… and welcome to the new dtm666.com… officially speaking, that is.
Well, today was supposed to be the “official” launch of the new dtm666.com, but then I decided to give it a “soft launch” of sorts while stuff in the background continues to get worked on. To make a long story short, some stuff is working, some stuff is being worked on, and some stuff is shelved until it’s eventually worked on. This stuff is going to take time, but the hope is that by the end of the year, everything that was on the old Blogger page will be on the new WordPress site and we can all move on with our lives.
With that in mind, the focus is going to be more on videos and background work this month. I might not even do a DTM-Cast episode this month (and really, I haven’t been feeling it as of late with some personal stuff… oh yes, that old chestnut rear its ugly, unfortunate head.) To sort of make up for it, I whipped up a couple videos where I played through old Mega Man Maker levels (and these even have commentary and other things). I’ll be doing a couple of these every so often and they’ll alternate with the Sunday Gimmick Tables, which will make a comeback for a short time.
Video Schedule (UPDATED 2024-06-17)
Here’s the video schedule for the month… barring any surprises or real-life interruptions. (Edit 2024-06-08 – Such as a surprise NSO drop that inspired me to rework the entire month’s schedule.) I’ve pushed back Sunday Gimmick Tables by a couple weeks and there may (or may not) be something extra added to the mix. For now, this is the road map of videos to look forward to.

Also, all previously posted Royal Ramble entries are now available for reading and they all have spiffy new banners. You can check those out on this link here. (Or, you know, use the navigation menu above… that works, too.)
Before anyone asks, there is no 2015 Royal Ramble post… I’m saving that for down the road…
Other Notes
A couple more points I want to add before I close this post out…
First off, I’ve read the entirety of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Return, the Amy Jo Johnson-penned comic miniseries from Boom Studios and will get around to gathering some thoughts on this thing. Hopefully, I’ll get those up this month, along with a quick non-spoilery review for those who want to come into this pure.
Secondly (and also lastly),
