This is the Eighth of my project and the 11th week of genius hour, and I had a great week for getting lots of time in and putting the work in, but I didn't go very far. I played for 8 hours, 25 minutes, and 46 seconds this week, and I only missed playing the game on Friday of this week. On Thursday I went down in rank to Silver 3, but I got it back up to Silver 2 on Sunday.
I have realized over these 8 weeks that there are so many factors in my life that get in the way of going as far as I possibly can in the ranked system. My family, school, homework, girlfriend, and lots more. I barely have any free time, I have to mainly make my own free time and take away from my family or schoolwork to get some time into this game for the project. My dad doesn't support it and it makes it even more difficult to get lots of time on the game. I have done my best to overcome the obstacles and I have been doing okay. I could definitely have done better and I realize that. I also realize that I made my goal very unrealistic, and that is okay. I feel like these past 8 weeks have been unsuccessful but successful at the same time. Its felt unsuccessful because I haven't been able to get the time in that I needed and I haven't been able to reach the goal I set for myself. Its felt successful because I have learned a lot about my favorite video game and I've gotten a lot better. I've learned a lot about how things work, like the way that I've been playing isn't good for my rank. Solo-queuing is the hardest way to rank up, but I have been doing my best to overcome this obstacle, and its been sort of working. Im at the highest rank I've ever been on the game, just because I haven't put the time in. This project has helped me manage my time better and make my time management skills a lot better over these weeks. It's been a okay week, next week is the last week of the project, and I'm ready!!
