I pretty much only play trek if I can play betazoid, trill (joined), or deltan.

A really shitty live version of 'Confident' by Demi Lovato, that Spotify is forcing me to listen to as a commercial.

ESO is on sale for $20

(Granted, it wouldn't accept my bank card. So YMMV)

My favorite sidequest involved Longneck Lukowski's Cannery, south of Salem Witchcraft Museum. I ran into a random settler who told me about Longneck Lukowski's cannery. Go take a look around!

Star Trek: Gamma One has some successful campaigns for a while. However, players began getting more and more unhappy and people started leaving. I think that a successful campaign requires not only an active and well prepared GM but also players who are there an interested in it.

Moar Java~ Here is my first lab for this term. I was forced to use switches to do this:

//********************************************************************
// Date: 01/09/16
// Program Name:
// Program Description: This program asks the user to input a number between 50-200
//			this is the number of times a random number between 1-100
//			will be generated.  This program uses a verification of input loop
//			to make sure the user is putting in the right number range.
//			It then stores the number into an array and uses at least one switch.
//			It will finally print a histogram of the numbers showing the frequency
//			Of which each number was randomly generated.
// PseudoCode:
//	Ask user to enter value 50-200 (How Many #?)
//	Verify input between 50-200
// 	Declare int array size 10
//	Repeat (how many times)
//		generate int (1-100)
//		convert num to correct range
//			range =(num-1)/10
//		increment array[range]
//
//	print histogram
//
// ( Test Oracle goes here! )

I've gotten so much GIRL = Guy In Real Life, I don't take it seriously when someone thinks I'm a dude. Although, I stopped getting so much of that when I stopped playing a lot of WoW with randoms.

Blue is my favorite color. Blue on WORA was taken, thus I became Cobalt. And now I am Cobaltasaurus, because fuck you I do what I want.

Jade Empire is free through Origin right now.

This seems to go on free so very often.

Mrm. I don't like that names seem to have disappeared from the unread page... I don't have everyone's avatars memorized and I don't want to.

Hover your mouse cursor over the avatar and, et voila - the name appears.

It actually doesn't work for me. Hovering over the avatar gives me nothing. Granted, it doesn't really matter to me since I'll either read the thread based on the title or not.

But as a note @Glitch; the 'click this to view latest posts' doesn't seem to be working for me. Not sure if it is a theme issue (I'm not using the standard one) or a forum issue itself.

ARISE CHICKEN!

Alright folks. Anime me.

I recently finished Parasyte: the Maxim, recently. So now I need something new to poke at slowly. Otherwise I'm just going to go back to Samurai Champloo~ Any suggestions?

Supervising RP used to be okay until it became spying on players.

This didn't take very long in the hobby, either.

I started on a game with fully coded obfuscate (and auspex), and one with coded cameras for public places (like elysia). The idea of someone having a camera in a place on a doesn't really bother me. I'd prefer it if that didn't catch OOC comments as well, but again-- in public places such as Elysia or hangouts it doesn't bother me too much.

Nor does the idea of staff logging what goes on in say an OOC room. As long as staff aren't going out of their way to read player pages between each other, or go into private builds to watch private RP, I don't really care.

@Thenomain, they were in Oregon-- not Washington.

What 'Cirno's Trolling' thread? I don't see one.

Sometimes not going to college is ok and works out. I'm much happier with my numbers and I would have never ever ever ever picked being an accountant on my own.

While I'm still very bitter and angry about the situation that lead to me not going to college right out of high school, I definitely wouldn't have picked programming at that time. I would have gone to art school and that's a very very high risk of 'not ever being successful' sort of career. Or very high risk of 'soul crushing hatred of other people because I'm graphic design where my art is made for other people rather than me'.

I like it when people tell me my art is pretty and praise me. I do not like trying to make art that other people want.

Coding up something someone was requested, on the other hand, is a challenge and I adore it.

@Sessurea said:

Cirno, are you Nuku?

I'm fairly certain Cirno is not Nuku. Nuku does come around every so often to talk about Ponyfinder. He (?) has been fairly successful with it.

I do often have suspicions that Cirno is PsyJane. Are you, @Cirno?

@Cirno I think reading over your things that you like to play character that people might immediately judge in a negative manner. Stuff that people would dismiss as caricatures without bothering to RP with you, or find out why you find those characters fun-- or to see if they could be fun. Frankly, I don't think there is anything wrong (as long as you aren't being deliberately offensive with your concept) with having a "caricature".

Do you enjoy the challenge of making something "grounded" and "fleshed out" of those concepts? Or do you enjoy making people get all up on high-horses? Or both?

I have been guilty, and probably will be in the future, of eye-rolling and judgment of other peoples characters. At this point I'm trying to find that zen place where I don't judge anyone for their fun. I might not want to play a stripper-ninja, but how does someone else playing a stripper-ninja hurt me? It doesn't.

I'm not sure if it was clear in the initial post:

We're unlikely to be using Hunter: the Vigil, if we do it'll be pieces of it (merits, etc). This is only partly because it's not likely that HtV 2E will be out any time soon.

I have nothing but for you both, but that is the flakiest headstaff combo possible.

Thanks for the confidence.
