Aldwen

My parody of Walden can be read here.

It's what I'm working on right now, and It's another blog. (Although it will only receive about 20 entries ever.)

Trumpet

Soon, I'll have a trumpet.
A crappy trumpet, barley capable of notes.
It will be perfect, for there is only one song worth playing on a trumpet.
Only 2 musical meters worth playing, to master the trumpet.

2 meters that will get stuck in your head until you die, and will be there in hell with you for eternity. Played by me. ... Forever.

It will never stop.
In the quietest of night, you will hear it ring out, it's catchy-ness unrivaled world over.
...

It will find you.
You cannot hide.
You cannot unhear it.

Victoria II (Again)

I've been playing more Victoria II. Yes, I'm Oranje again.
That game is amazing, and just gets better as you get better at it.
In my current game, I'm in 1907, I own large chunks of Afrika, and have a little piece of Canada. (Don't we all, in our hearts?)

I really have nothing important to say.

2010 in Music - The Thylacine Awards

An end of a year. I heard a countdown of "the 20 hits from 2010" which was of course crap.
So here, I bring you, the Thylacine awards. Awards you can not care about as much as I don't care about theirs.


1: Most Epic Moment for Music History.

My first award goes to the ARIA. (Aussie Recording Industry) for putting The Church in the hall of fame. Thank you. They deserve it.




2: Least Disappointing Album of 2010.

The award goes to Air Formation for the production of "Nothing to Wish for"
Many shoegaze albums lately have lost their quality. They stayed true to their style, and for that, I give them this award.



3: The best remix of 2010.

While KMFDM's Kreig was shoddy, one remix not only improved the song, but brought it to a whole new level of good. This song, is people of the lie. (Fire and Brimstone mix)

4: Best 1 hit wonder of 2010.

Diorama released the album Cubed, on which was the song Child of Entertainment.
The only song worth listening to on the album. For this they get that award.





5: Best band that isn't on youtube (yet) that released an album this year.

Botanica takes the cake for this one. Releasing their album Who you are this year.
They aren't Firewater, but they are lead by a bandmember of firewater.
They produce decent stuff.



Well that was fun.

Something I simply must share.

Oh fuck yes.

Goddamn Frog thinks it's better than me.

Look at those menacing eyes. And it's fuckin lilly-pad.
Now imagine that frog with a pair of sunglasses, and a backwards red ballcap complete with gold bling around it's pitiful frog neck. Yeah, that's right. It thinks it's better than you as well.

This week's psychotic rambling brought to you by crackerss on deviant art.

Instruments

So I have a pseudo-job fixing instruments. I still don't get payed. But at least I do something fun.
And I actually do get payed, in broken instruments. Heh...
I'll still turn a profit somehow.

Finished...

Well, I finished it. Shame I shan't be posting it on my blog.
Now I have nothing to do but update the old blog.

Also

I almost forgot:

Bulwraaf G'narn K'fkhet.

Voxels

I'm working on the largest pixel painting I've ever done.
126x126.

Other than the fact that I'm about to die from pixel exhaustion, somewhere down the line, my pixels turned into voxels, and my voxels didn't follow geometry.

Also, I failed at shading, but It's working out in the long run.

Long day

I've spent many an hour writing DnD rules and such.
Painfull.

Now to take a break I want to play Never winter nights...
Which isn't really a break is it?

Pixelz

I've been doing more art lately. Amazing how I never post anything on my blog.My pixel art is getting better though. I've also sort of got a pretty original style, or maybe it's because I'm not trying to emulate old video games. Who knows.
It's a shame I don't post it on my blog. I guess you'll never see it.

Another awesome instrument

The Tuba. I never knew they were so awesome.

Contact Juggling

So this is pretty badass, It's a form of juggling designed in the 80's. (As in, 1980's) I was given a shoddy acrylic ball for christmas, and I'm going to use it as my practice ball until I learn how to do this.
Oh, also, it demands that you are a wizard, or possibly a druid.
Your ability to do this seems directly linked to how Wizardly-druidic you are.

Like so:

Nice Italians

I've been getting ready to DM, and I took a break to check out Google Sketchup 8. It's a very easy to use 3d modeling program, and I recommend it. Oh, also It's free.

That picture is something I've just bothered to make. It's a model of a location from our DnD games.

Also, Elder Scrolls V has been announced.
Obviously the video game industry is trying it's damndest to keep me interested in mainstream gaming. Meanwhile, I'm failing to put Dwarf Fortress on a floppy disc. It's too big...

SPACE (On my computer)

I'm low on space, and high on speed. (But not the drug... I'm talking about computers)
Although I've had caffeine, so I shouldn't be doing this anyways.

So, what I actually wanted to say,was that I partitioned my computer to have 30GB on the main partition, with the rest of the memory going to the mysterious hard drive "d" which has everything I've installed. This works very well for having my computer not slow down with more stuff on it, but it doesn't allow me to have anything on my main partition, which is annoying as hell.

I need to gut my computer and replace it with Nanophotonics....


Also, silicon based life was discovered. No big deal.

Changing gears

I think I'm going to make an RPG instead of a Platformer.
That's all I had to say.

Then I can use Mode 7 excessively.

Lies, I'm an EVIL Game Dev

I leaked a few copies of my abomination, Super Machine Gun Man.
If there is a hell, I will go there for it.

For one, Super Machine Gun Man isn't in it. Only the lovable sidekick, Dr. Greensword.

I'm a terrible Game Dev

The exciting adventures of Dr. Greensword and Supermachingunman are going slowly.
By slowly I mean that I have almost no idea of what I'm doing.
Cheers.
