  1. EU4, it's 1766. I've got 50 years to go now. I'm slowly getting there though. I really recommend the game, it's just so long... Hehe. I'm determined to play HOI3 next. *gulp*

      I have it but haven't played it. Heh.

      When you find the time to do so, take my warning: beware the UK. Seriously, they're pretty OP in Victoria 2.

      That may be a while, I've got a lot on my plate. I barely find the time to play games anymore. Heh. Still, I'll endeavour to remember.

  2. Mashed potato with garlic butter, this cooking thing is easier than I thought.

  3. Isn't it awkward when people don't quite get that hint that you're annoyed with them? Ahh well...

      Maybe instead of hinting, you should be direct.

  4. Was nice and sunny today, decided to go out and read a little in the sunshine. Soon as I stepped out the door it started raining, heavily. It was like a bad comedy.

      Same thing happened to me and a friend. We were walking outside working on a story, then it suddenly started storming... thirty seconds before, there wasn't a single cloud in the sky.

      Oh it's just not been a very great week. Don't worry. Hehe. That and I haven't updated my status in a while, hehe.

      Hmm... Sorry to hear that. Hopefully the weekend is better than the week was for you.

  6. Ahh P.E. Otherwise know as 'That annoying part of the day when I got laughed at'. Fortunately I had a group of friends in that class, so we banded together in all the group activities. That lessened the annoyance. Still, it actually put me off doing physical activity. Rather counter-productive.
  7. I won't be joining in the event this time, nope. I don't want another 'surprise' and I don't care much for exploring site lore. Still, have fun guys.

      Hey I was asked for my opinion and I gave it. I'm not trying to upset anyone, I'm just telling it how I see it. To be fair, I know a lot of different people worked on it and to be fair again, some of it is quite good. I don't know which parts you worked on specifically Quick, so I can't really comment specifically. You have to remember though, like Rose said, I'm one person. That's not to say your writing isn't good, just that I didn't like it and that's no...

      not taking into account the fact I'm very hard to please with writing. I said I mostly don't like it because I don't like being told what to think when none of it is confirmed in the show, it's fanon, and I stand my that. I'm a dirty purist after all. Hehe. It was a while ago that I read it, and then I didn't read it in depth, perhaps I missed something. I don't know, I would probably need to read it again and in depth before I can really give any kind of construct...

    4. Zealot

      constructive feedback. That was my impression that I remember when I skimmed it last and I don't remember it saying who wrote which sections. I dunno, if you want me to clear this up then I wouldn't mind reading through it again if you can tell me which parts of the lore you wrote. I didn't want to hurt feelings like I did. I'm sorry.

  8. Hard-drive has been replaced and my computer is back to normal. Mostly. Posting will resume as normal. On a side note, I love my new solid state drive. It's so fast!

      Once you go SSD, you can't go back.

  9. Having issues with my computer. I may be unable to post for a few days. Should be a quick fix but who knows.

    1. Avery

      Avery

      Hope you get that fixed soon! Good luck with everything!

    2. Zealot

      Zealot

      Thanks Avery, and likewise. Thankfully it's probably just a case of replacing the hard drive. If not, well, that's tricky. Still, thanks.

  10. Busy weekend, no time for posts. Sorry guys.

  11. "Yeah, I heard it. Whatever it was. Kinda wish I hadn't."

    Oh, umm. Wow, this was totally out of nowhere. Hehe, thanks Zeig. I know this was just practice for you, but it's always nice to see my characters drawn, I'm flattered that you picked mine to practice on. Still, I like it. Her hair is a bit too light, I always imagined it to be dark brown, and yeah the mouth does look a tad odd. Still, for an hour and a half this is brilliant. Thanks man.
  13. All the threatening attack arrows.

  14. Oh gosh, my roleplay is inspiring art... pressure. That aside, I like it. Your work is always good Zeig and it's nice to see it.
  15. Well, Starstone is away. You can still join a little late if you wanted to. Other than that, not much is going on. Modifying a nerf gun and making a roleplay game.

  16. Hehe, I saw that thread. I might drop in at some point with a character. Still, good work on the sketch.
  17. All my work is done now, exams are over. I've got nothing but free time now... Well, within reason of course. May be setting up Mystery of the Starstone for those who are interested.

  18. Right, one exam done. One to go, in a few weeks. Apologies if I've been a bit slow with responses these past few days, like I said, exam. Should be free for a while though.

      Yep, that's what I'm doing. Hehe. Thanks.

      Nope, just icy silence I'm afraid.

      Solaria

      I'll take my sunny whispers elsewhere!

  21. I've noticed more than a few people come to me asking for advice on writing, both here and on FIMfiction. I wonder if it's worth starting a blog to help newer roleplayers learn good writing technique as well as good roleplay etiquette. I don't know if anyone would be interested in that.

    1. Avery

      Avery

      It'd be good to at least help someone that wouldn't know what to do if they were starting out. Who knows? Maybe it'll be good in the long run.

    2. Zealot

      Zealot

      Yeah, I mean canterlot has a short help page already, but it's not extensive. I was thinking more on teaching the grammar side of it to assist post quality as well as etiquette to help newbies who might be unsure of what to do. Show people how to build posts and all that.

  22. Lots of work to do still, plus I'm not feeling too great about things. It's not a fun combination.

  23. Hmm, I need to stop coming up with character ideas. There's not enough opportunities and time to roleplay as it is. Besides, I went a bit dark with it. It'll certainly need revision.

  24. Again, I will say I need to think about it properly and again I will say I will not digress further. We need a proper thread if we're going to discuss things like that. I will also say though, in the kindest and politest way I can that I don't particularly appreciate you highlighting your points so boldly. I'm sure it wasn't the intention, but such things can be viewed as rude and condescending. I'm sure you weren't trying to be but unfortunately that's how I received it, hehe. Just you know, I'm trying to help out and all so I apologise if I did offend. I'm not entirely sure if I did... Either way, as I suggested, we should probably just leave the conversation there until we can discuss it properly, not in the comments section. -Zealot
  25. Hmm, well, fair enough. If it's a case of just having an extra set of eyes though maybe the whole thing needs a slight tweak to allow that but not hinder efficiency. Maybe just needing a junior RP member to approve a character to start roleplaying, under a kind of provisional agreement just until a senior looks it over. It's not like they would miss anything crucial after all. Hmm. Either way, the whole thing needs a look at. Probably should do some data collection research to see how efficient the system is and how often errors come up before I start proposing those kinds of changes though. Should be pretty easy to do. Still, something to keep in mind. Ideas blerg, hehe. I won't digress any further, though I'll probably end up messaging someone interested once I have a proper think about it. If there's anyone interested. I'll definitely be doing some research to satisfy my own curiosity though. But yeah, best leave it there, I wouldn't want to cause a debate in the comments section, we need a proper thread for that. So yeah, thanks guys, you've given me a few things to think about. -Zealot
