It was great talking to all the teams and world race community members from the CN side. With all that is going on, it's so refreshing to be able to talk to other passionate gamers around the world, connecting on something with both love.

Actually for the time being this is being postponed! Sorry everyone!

This weekend we have a special show interviewing Team Lucrezia about the world race! Helping translate, Miuna will join us as well

It's incredible how much time I have dedicated to competitive high end MMO raiding, while myself barely even having the time to raid anymore. But I do believe it's an important part of FFXIV. Without it, I really don't know where this game would be.

We were able to raise over $16,000 for @gamesforlove.bsky.social during the Arcadion: Heavyweight (Savage) World Race charity stream. Thank you so much to the FFXIV community for helping us do something so meaningful and positive through our passion for the FFXIV World Race!

Are you ready for the finale of the Arcadion FFXIV World Race?

It is with absolute and great hesitation I am publicly announcing the new MogTalk website which will be used for the upcoming Savage World Race with Arcadion: Heavyweight. mogtalk.com

Hey everyone! As you all know, we are doing a World Race for Charity event tracking Arcadion: Heavyweight (Savage). Those interested in either racing or volunteering, please fill out one of these forms! Racing - forms.gle/6j3pz71TjUnT... Volunteering - forms.gle/VV4qk2AY5Btm...

Why??

Warming up for Patch, talking about world race website stuff, and STREAMING OMFASFSDS REALLY? twitch.tv/FrostyMog

Super excited to start shows and streams again after months of programming. See you all soon.

Pretty awesome teaser stuff for the next Arcadion wing! Vote now on what cosplay @frostymog.bsky.social should wear for the Savage race in January!

Why do I have the feeling I'm being talked to?

This weekend MogTalk FINALLY returns to discuss the live letter and patch 7.4 with @kiwicattv.bsky.social @slyakagreyfox.bsky.social & @jettskylar.bsky.social!

MogTalk will be covering the upcoming Savage Race as normal on January 6th! Soon we will start reaching out the community and players for those that want to be involved. We are staying tuned to find out how to involve new regions catching up with global release as well!

Still working out a ton of things... pardon all the testing stuff... I've spent months learning and navigating the webdev world. Won't have a lot out of the gate functionality wise, but should be a more solid foundation for everything MogTalk and the FFXIV World Race.

Man getting into web development is such an intimidating endeavor. I feel like going into a hardware store with an idea, looking at a billion options, and tools I don't know the name of - and a robot keeps asking me if I need help, but it's an evil robot I'm supposed to say no to

Third time's the /charm! Pardon our Firmament dust as we get the website updated for year 3.0 happening on October 17 & 18, 2026 back at the St. Charles Convention Center! As mentioned prior, we'll be using only the lower level this time as we find our break even point. More news to come!

Last night I picked up my cat from the emergency vet (he swiped one of my dogs pain meds from his bowl which we found out is extremely toxic), total vet bill was $4000. He seems to be okay, but when he got home the vet said to unwrap his IV bandage. That was a mistake - TW: Blood

Guys sorry I've been pretty unresponsive. A lot of life stuff has come up to manage and any free time is immediately sunk into redoing the MogTalk website to try to have phase 1 beta ready by the time the world race starts.

I keep thinking "what if I program myself into a hole" - but honestly it is probably more important to make something, and figure it out later instead of freezing up on making the "best" decision. Even if you have to fix something, at least you have something in the first place.

Programming is hard. I write some code, feel good about it, then while writing some more code realize what I wrote before doesn't work anymore and have to rewrite it. It's such a vicious loop. Every big progress step turns into a small step. But at least there's steps...

I'm working to completely remake the MogTalk website by personally coding it. I'm both excited and exhausted about it... It's important to me to have a tool to handle the projects I want to bring to life and this website is a part of it. I'm a webdev newb, but I'll try my best

Everyone needs to make money, and to create content as a career requires knowing how to properly monetize creativity. If you can't figure that out, you may lose all creativity and find yourself in a depressing inescapable spiral of chasing the bag. Few do it well, I couldn't.

Most of the people who give me energy and help me stay positive you'll never know. There's a lot of really awesome people and most of them aren't on social media front page. Without them, I would have stopped long ago. I'm sure you have people like that too, appreciate them.

Truly the best part of @gatewayfate.bsky.social is getting together with friends and sharing our passion for FFXIV in the same space! Huge thank you to everyone who attend panels with myself, @frostymog.bsky.social, @rookuri.bsky.social, and @fisherfruity.bsky.social this weekend too 💞

Beautiful friends! 💕 The best part of any #FFXIV gathering! I swapped so many stickers with all of you, chatted with people I wish I could see year round like Vicky, @frostymog.bsky.social & @emunarum.bsky.social, and met tons of Warriors of Light! 🥰 @gatewayfate.bsky.social is such a special time

It was an absolutely wonderful weekend at GATEway FATE! I am always floored at the friendliness and openness of the FF community. Thanks to everyone involved from attendee to staff. Safe travels!

I want to say Kev was literally the best co-host I could have had for this panel. Absolute inspiration, not just a Chocobo racer, but as a human being.

Did you attend any panels? Thank you to all our panelists for pouring their passion into the presentations! From fishing to kimono dressing, to music, to economics, the topics were so varied!

I really love @gatewayfate.bsky.social - it's so comfy. It reminds me a lot of what I want to do with MogTalk, but in the form of a convention. Very proud to be a part of it and appreciate them having me.

Come join @frostymog.bsky.social and I to chat about Chocobo racing! 1:00PM at @gatewayfate.bsky.social #gatewayfate #ffxiv #ff14 #cosplay #viera #chocoboracing Ears by @turtlesmithy.bsky.social

Next up in the @gatewayfate.bsky.social panel docket is Off to the Chocobo Races with @frostymog.bsky.social and @arcanekani.bsky.social. Very excited for content chatter about something I love and direly needs more made for it.

Imma be real I never touched chocobo racing ever Im pretty sure I had the first certificate you get in my inventory for over a year but the Off to the Chocobo Races panel has been very chaotic good funny 🐥 Thanks for hosting @frostymog.bsky.social @arcanekani.bsky.social #GATEwayFATE

Was fantastic to finally meet @jasoncharlesmiller.com in person. (Bonus Amanda in the BG)

Anyone else get super excited for a game, it gets released and you aren't in a position to play it, then it's a year later and it's on sale for steam and you're like "wtf..."

"What it Sounds Like" from KPOP Demon Hunters makes me tear up, even more so when my daughter tries to sing it poorly in the car while going to the zoo. My brain is so stupid.

Hello #XIVFMN, exciting news! We've been working hard in the background to bring a better experience to all browsing for #XIVmerch with us... Now we have a proper website! You can sign up, search shops better, and save favorites and searches both! xivfanmerch.network

Now time to prep my @gatewayfate.bsky.social panels...

Working on recovering, then I need to get through all the recent post event stuff and start preparing for taking Savage. I wonder what I can do now that I know more.

Prep for this race has really wiped me out, I don't know if I'm gonna make it all the way to event end lol...
