wingkind

As you might have guessed, PW's closed beta has taken up most of my time. It is really one of the best games I ever played--truly quest-based, not much of the grinding (although I have to grind a bit, I ran out of quests). I'm playing a Yu Ling, the Wingkind support class, currently at lv38. Pretty slow, though, but at least I'm levelling. Then again, that's only half the reason I play; he's there too. And too bad that cuddle function only works on guy-to-girl characters, he's chixi forever. He wanted to cuddle. Damn. I'm the Yu Ling to his Yu Mang. Nuff said.

Oh well.

...

Around a week has passed since I last posted (well, a decent post) here, and a lot of things have changed.

I'll post a separate entry on last Friday--or I won't. All I can say is that last Friday convinced me to join HOL. With a suprisingly fast-tracked application, I'm now considered a member, and now part of the all-day confes in YM. I think. LOL

And the CBT for PW is just a few hours away--I've checked the shops earlier, and they looked okay, though they said they won't install it until tomorrow.

Well, just wait and see.

death quizzie...too lazy to write decent post

roleplay

The desktop's power supply has gone kaputt and so I'm forced to bring the laptop down--the LAN cable is tacked to the wall and hence, immobile. Probably the desktop' internal power supply; I've already checked the sockets (working well), the connections (seems to be in order), and the AVR (ok too). Good thing these things don't cost an arm, a leg, and half of the other arm--mom jokingly said that I might be forced to take an LOA from school just to pay for the repair costs. And good thing that all files are on the external hard drive--at least no data lost.

On the Roseboards a roleplay is in the planning stage--got one of the main character roles (protagonist, though), and well, let's just say that the casting looks interesting. I'd have to say though that some of these who will be RP'ing are realtively new to the art, and I myself am pretty rusty when it comes to this. And the plot is still not clearly planned out from my POV--the main diff between this and the LOTR roleplays is that the main LOTR roleplays that I've joined have definite endings like the massive Last Alliance plot. This, I guess, will be mostly play by ear.

I won't expect a lot from this either--it's just a start, and with the choice of the main antagonist, I'm afraid that the antagonist would turn out to be a one-dimensional character. I'm still using Annatariel for the RP--as usual, she'd be more in the gray than just the plain old black+white, good vs. evil protagonist.

And I'm looking around for a new template idea. I'm prolly doing one with Annatariel in the bg--which will entail a lot of work since a) I don't have a colored sketch of her and b) I'm not good when using irl drawings. And screenies won't do it either.

randomly generated passwords

I got terribly bored earlier and since I wasn't willing to pilot a character for a siege in RO (for one, I don't have an installer), I settled for Corum Online instead. And since it was ages ago that I last played the game, I had forgotten the password and so clicked on the forgot pass link at Gpotato.

I got one of those randomly generated passwords--an 8 number password, to be exact. So I got back into the login screen for Corum, and wonder of wonders, it's still incorrect.

I retyped it again. And again. Still incorrect.

So does that mean that their password generating machine is incorrect?

cheap knock-offs

Some idiot ran away with stridermaster's sigs and decided to pass it off as his own. So earlier we were pretty much flamed that idiot on his sig-ordering thread (the nerve), and almost his friendster account--though we decided that went too low already. Good thing the final card plans are in storage...I think. >_<

59th

Sentiments echo through a noiseless valley, unheard and unheeded.

Is it time? I have been waiting for so long, and so near, so easy it sounds. The music plays in the background as I try and utterly fail to divine the secrets of the future and the past, the present fading away quickly into those two as I speak.

recap

I was supposed to write last Friday, but as usual procrastination became top of the priority list that day, and the day after (Saturday), so it's only today that I am writing again.

So what did happen from last post? Nothing much--me and ami went on a crazy trip to the LUG offices in Makati last Thursday. Ami needed to recover his myLU acct; he forgot both his username and password (yep, it's only now that he finally got to LUG). We also met Dave in Glorietta just to hand over the hard copy of Terra Nova. Though we were Polarians, the Sirian influence is already evident--the problem itself is Sirian--from forgetting to press the ground floor button in the elevator and wondering why it didn't stop at the ground floor to getting lost on the way to Glorietta because we got on the wrong bus. Then again, I'm Talan already, and therefore 4/5 Sirian. Which is not necessarily good unless you have a different concept of what a Sirian is. But oddly enough, it was a fun (mis)adventure.

Friday was the usual wall climbing thing--only made much harder with the routes. I'm not counting my completed climbs anymore, and honestly, I'll just worry about my grade when it comes. There's the written part anyway.

And yep, some know who he is already. Wayne guessed correctly, the first person to do so, after he made me give him some clues. I told Gulay, however, and he went :O Now the bigger question haunts me: when will I tell him myself?

lamb

Mary had a little lamb.
But she got hungry.
Mary had a little lamb burger instead.

That went through my mind as I saw the lamb burgers for sale at Shopwise earlier. Mmm.

Imagine stading in one place for 3 hours, just talking. That's what happened yesterday, except that it was online.

I was in Tala yesterday, since he was online and playing (well, actually everyone else on YM was busy, so I repatched and gave it a shot). We (I, him, and neo; them using other characters) ended up just talking and alt+tabbing in Junon for approx. 3 hours; only getting interrupted by people asking for buffs and talking to "GM" montoya (actually neo using toya's account).

Talking. Just talking, everything from school politics, supposed gender discrimination in gaming (or why the terms "bakla" and "bading" are censored but "tomboy is not"--something to bring to the attention of Danton Remoto and Ang Ladlad), toya's supposed gf, and well a bit of my past (though privately).

And I had fun, more than plain gaming, whatever game, will give.
