Ajaxpost Plays 3,000 Subscriber Giveaway!

To celebrate hitting the unbelievable milestone of 3,000 subscribers I have chosen a selection of top games I've picked up over the last couple of years, added in some choice new titles that I've really enjoyed playing on the channel and bundled them all into one big giveaway! I will draw FIVE winning entrants on the Gleam.io competition page and up to FIVE entrants through my YouTube Community competition post up to a maximum of TEN winners in all. Each winning entrant can choose one of at least twenty one great games to take away and keep. NOTE : The same prize list is used for both YouTube and Gleam.io entries but entries made on the YouTube post will have precedence in choosing a game key prize.

So, even if you don't win today, keep an eye on Ajaxpost Plays for further chances to grab an awesome game! See below for the full list of games in...

Who Is AjaxPost Plays?

So, Who Am I?

Hi, my name is Adrian, and back at the end of 2015 I created a YouTube channel to share my Sims 3 Lets Plays.

To keep things 'simple' I used my Sims 3 ID 'ajaxpost'* and initially named my channel after my Sims alter-ego, Adam Slade. It sorta makes sense if you don't think about it too hard!

However, having discovered I rather enjoyed creating videos for YouTube I added more games to the channel and in 2019, realising that The Sims 3 content had become a small part of what I was uploading, I dropped the Adam Slade and became just "Ajaxpost Plays". 😄


Beyond the PC games I'm also a great fan of theatre, real ale, and 'old' music that I remember from my youth (check out my theatre and music playlists for some of my favourites). So this blog is likely to contain references to new YouTube content that I upload, beery stuff and some of the theatre I see.

You can find me on Bluesky, Instagram, Twitter, and various Discord servers (where my ID is just 'Ajax').


I also have a Tumblr and used to hang out on the Sims forums but, sadly, don't visit those places much these days.😢

If you fancy saying "hi" in any of these other places, just use the links in the sidebar.

Who Do I Think I Am?

If you're interested in my thoughts about what it means to me to be a "Content Creator" do check out my post on the escalating success of my channel ... Am I A 'YouTuber' Now?   

* Why 'Ajaxpost'? 

Well...
Many (many, many) years ago when I was a kid for a while my nickname at school was 'Ajax' - possibly inspired by the cleaning product that was widely advertised at the time.

Then many, many, years later when I started to hang out on the Internet and didn't want to use my real name I remembered that nickname so I called myself "Ajax" instead. Not sure why I added 'post' but I started to use it quite frequently and especially on forums like that for The Sims 3. Consequently, when I eventually started creating content, mostly for TS3, I just carried on using my forum ID, "Ajaxpost". Et voilà!

Am I A 'YouTuber' Now?

So, this was a post I wrote back in October 2020 but, for some reason never quite finished or published it...🤔 The situation has escalated somewhat since then, in August 2023 my little hobby channel had acquired an astonishing 2,500 subscribers!  I wonder if my musings of three years ago are still valid (I have made some minor edits to the original draft for spelling and grammar) ... Well, it was just a little hobby, to share the fun I was having with my Sims 3 stories and now I've reached the first big 'proper YouTuber' milestone ... 1,000 subscribers!! In December 2015 I uploaded my first ever gameplay video, "Slade Dynasty Chronicles Intro : Sims 3 Lets Play" As ropey as it was, I think I was actually using just the microphone on my cheap-as-chips headset, I actually enjoyed the process of creating videos and the very kind Sims 3 community were encouraging in their support. I experimented with other games and types of video, trying to work out what I most...

The New Blog

Hi, while my YouTube channel is still quite small (less than 1,000 subscribers, etc.) I can't use the built-in YouTube features to actively engage with you, the lovely folk who watch, comment, and subscribe to my channel. As I am already sort of familiar with Blogger I though I would open up a new space here specifically linked to the YouTube channel but one that allows me to share stuff other than my game videos and can also be somewhere for all of us to exchange thoughts and ideas about the channel or anything else that pops into our minds. So ... if you're not into using Twitter or Instagram to communicate, or find them too limiting, or are strange enough to want to read more of my long-winded thoughts and observations then ... WELCOME! Now, if you're new to my channel or maybe just curious about who the heck I am please check out the links in the title bar which might give you some insight ... or might not. ;) You can use the Subscribe option in the title bar...
