  1. 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...

      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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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!

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

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

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

  6. All the threatening attack arrows.

  7. 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.

  8. 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.

  9. 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.

      Soldier on! You can do it!

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

      Nope, just icy silence I'm afraid.

    3. Solaria

      Solaria

      I'll take my sunny whispers elsewhere!

  12. 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.

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

  14. 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.

  15. Status update: Meh, I'm ok I guess. Feeling a little better than I was. But hey...

  16. Status update: Disillusioned and downcast.

      If anything is wrong and you wanna talk, send me a message.

      I hope you feel better. :(

      Oh, sorry. Hehe. Didn't want to cause a fuss just letting folks know I'm not too great right now. I'm fine, just a little unhappy recently is all.

  17. Well I'm stumped, any new roleplays going on in CC or WOE I might have interest in?

  18. Thanks to Canvas' generously given art of my OC Glimmer, I'm now getting the urge to play my unicorn actress again. Hehe.

  19. I'm lacking any inspiration for a scene I'm writing. I know exactly how it'll go down and how to write it, I just can't find the inspiration to write it...

      Might have something to do with having all planned out beforehand; the actual writing is just busywork, as opposed to creative effort.

    2. Zealot

      Zealot

      Hmm a fair point. Maybe I should try and do more spontaneous story writing next time around. Hmm...

  20. Ahh Crusader Kings 2... The only game that makes me love politics. A recommendation to any strategy gamer.

    1. SteelEagle

      SteelEagle

      A fantastic game, no debate.

    2. Zealot

      Zealot

      Yeah, I consider myself terrible at the game but I'm actually doing ok this time around. Takes a while to figure out, but it's still a load of fun.

  21. *reads changes* Staff applications? I know I'm new, but there didn't appear to be a shortage... Something I missed?

      Fresh meat, new blood. Always good for the grinder :D

      I wonder why I'm now thinking about Starship Troopers... Hehe.

    4. Dio

      Dio

      Because this part is about squashing bugs, too? :I

  22. Well... Let's see where the dice fall, eh?

  23. "Yeah well, bullets may have names on them. Artillery rounds are more of a 'to whom it may concern' kind of deal though..."

      It was a comment in a dungeons and dragons game. I think a wizard was smack talking to a gunslinger about the fact he could summon a trebuchet. Suffice to say, we overheard it while we were playing another game and thought it was funny. So yeah, feel free to steal. Hehe. Though I probably will end up using it at some point somewhere too. Hehe.

      If you're offering, i'm totally using this now. Thanks for making my day and making a contribution to my fanfiction <3

      Hehe, not a problem. Just remember where you got it from. Hehe.

  24. Status update: Okie dokie lokie!

  25. Well... Ok. Since my plan was quite spectacularly derailed I have decided not to continue with the event. Have fun without me guys. No comments please, I don't want to make a big thing about this or stir trouble or whatnot.
