moonshineshadow: *big hug* That is so sweet of you!
Also you should get a gogwiki wishlist, you are missing out of all the ninja gifting :P
avatar
GhostwriterDoF: <big Moonbeam hug>

I can’t set up a GoGwiki right now, since I use my wishlist as a reference to keep track of publishers and certain games, because of the abominable GoG site search function. Currently there are 16 games on it, and only about 6 that I actually want to get. heh! (I’ll figure something out.) :D

CarrionCrow: ... It sounds like you're pushing forward. With that motivation, you'll be able to get your characters wherever they're meant to go. I look forward to seeing the results on Amazon, at which point I can playfully gloat to others that I was able to pass the time chatting with you as it all came together. ;)
...
avatar
GhostwriterDoF: When I get these books written and published, then I’ll come out to visit you (and hand deliver your copy of the books), so you can also say you know me personally. ;)
Something to look forward to. =)

Helps on a convenience level that I live a lot closer to you than some thread people do. ;)

FearfulSymmetry: Yeah, I know the problem. I hate closing Firefox while playing a game, but sometimes it does help a bit with the performance.
Yeah sometimes it helps. But Chrome is definitely worse than Firefox concerning memory...;).
avatar
FearfulSymmetry: I hope you get it working! It would be sad if you had a nice new game and no way to play it. :P
avatar
adaliabooks: Well, as mentioned before, playing it will probably be fine. It'll be the crashing every time I close that will get annoying.

But I should probably close Chrome when I play games... as it eats my computers memory and causes all sorts of problems... but I'm a certified addict so it's hard to do that :/
-laughs- You sound so much like me with that statement. I play games windowed with Firefox open so I can still keep an eye on things.

Also, I've got a scenario for you, if you have a moment - Summer's coming, and summer is always brutal around here. 100+ degrees Fahrenheit for weeks at a time.
Problem is, the space I have is short on cooling with all the tech loaded up, so there's really no AC in here.
Combine that with the computer stuff, and it ends up being maybe 100 to 105 degrees in here every day aside from a few hours in the middle of the night.

That leads into my dilemma - I'm thinking of grabbing a New 3DS. Other parts of the house do have AC, they're comfortable. With the handheld, I could make use of it and not fry for 3-4 months.
But, the Summer sale is coming. If I don't take advantage of that, I don't get another chance for 6 months.
I don't want to be annoyed for half a year over a sale I didn't pillage like crazy.

Which way would you go?

I tried that too, but my laptop rebelled against it....*sigh*

EndreWhiteMane: As soon as I get to the point that food settles properly I'll be fine. :-)
Sorry to hear that you're next in line. Hope it's over very quickly. :(
Cheers, I hope it's something light at least.

GhostwriterDoF: Bleh, sounds like a cold or flu coming on. Well, let’s all hope it passes quickly, (which I’m sure we all do, just not as much as you.) :)

Hahaha, thanks.
Best would be it it changed its mind and left me alone, but it doesn't look like it; I've now also have a slight fever (37.5.°C), yikes! ;-)


And stop dancing around that wishlist, and get a GOGWiki page pronto! :-D

ElTerprise: [...]

Please send Moon as many +1 as possible because she gifted me Dust: An Elysian Tail ! *big thanks hug*
How about we do the same for you? You are a quick learner, I'll give you that! ;-P


Please send ElTerprise as many +1 as possible because he sneaked a hunted item in my PM box!


Thanks a bunch!

I couldn't play this way. When I play the game I want to really sink in, not think about other things. Hard enough to do it with all the real life stuff happening around me.
But I also know people who play games and have the TV on and (non-game) music as well... and probably they are "what's-apping" at the same time too.

I used to do that, but my attention is too scattershot these days. Downside of instant information access, I guess.
I'll put other music on over the top of games, but only when the music has started looping to the point of annoyance. Wouldn't put a show on top unless I'm doing something mindless like grinding away on an RPG or something. Then it's Netflix on one side with the game on the other.

-laughs- It's not something I do when I want to really focus on something. I'm not superhuman, I know the info processing is degraded doing it that way.
But with something like 7th Saga, I'd definitely have other things running so I didn't put my foot through the monitor.

LaPtiteBete: Hooo !! Jeez !! I almost missed that awesome hug !! :D
**Crushing extra happy hug back**
How are you doing, my favorite Agent ??
**Pass some extra delicious hot chocolate**
**Crushing you until your little owl eyes bulge out**
I'm doing great today. No complaints at all, for once :-) ... How is my favorite Owl doing? Will you celebrate when you are done teaching tomorrow?

**Drinking this epic hot chocolate, and nearly fainting +__o**
avatar
LaPtiteBete: Good evening, everybody !!!
**Hugs and waves, and... any drink you like**
avatar
CarrionCrow: Good evening. =)

Combination of Pepsi and coffee here at the moment. Seems to be working somewhat.

How's your day been, aside from having to deal with garbage presentations and what-not?
Pepsi and coffee mix ? >__< ... *pouarkh*...
My day wasn't too bad, if you remove all was related to this presentation thing (so, 91,27%) ^^
What about you, Crow ? :)
Any interest in the "tower of bundles" sale so far... ?
Ninja attacked!

Get out your +1 throwing stars and perforate HypersomniacLive since he just sniped A Story About My Uncle from my wishlist!!

:-)

Many, many thanks, Hyper! *big crushing hug*

j0ekerr: Welp, that's it. It's finished.

Hmm, I'll be... I actually managed to build something nice looking in minecraft.

And why am I thinking this in Simon Jones' voice?

Couple of screenshots from different angles.

avatar
EndreWhiteMane: Don't forget to post the final product.
How much time has gone into it so far?
avatar
j0ekerr: I have no idea, I think it's been a bit more than a week since I started.
:-O ... !!! That's really freaking awesome... I'm gonna show this to an old colleague who plays minecraft (with far too many mods), he will be jealous as hell :D Well done, j0ekerr !!! It's really stunning...

O__O ... (eyes bulging out)... ouch !!!
I'm really glad that you feel great today, with nothing at all to bother you !!! \o/
I'm doing ... not too bad, but, well... this is really stressful. It's definitely not my thing :-(
And hell yeah, I'm going to celebrate until I collapse from exhaustion !!! n__o
Any plans for today ?? :)
