I've been staying up all night learning the history of Scotland. I am fascinated by the prospect that a new nation may be born tomorrow.
I am pro-independence. America did it, and so did Australia. It's about time for the proud and brave Scots to be free.
I even spent an hour talking to my son, Scott, about the independence movement and the history of Scotland.

Well, today I got dental braces installed, something that probably should have happened earlier given that I'm 22 years old.
There are also two protrusions that have been added to the backs of my upper incisors, which prevent me from closing my mouth all the way, so I can't chew and will not be able to until the structure of my mouth is corrected.
I will probably be having a lot of soup for the next 18 months.

Hello!
Today I figured out how to embed screenshots/photos, thanks to Rufee!
So: Here's a few shots of my to-be mod;
I'm trying to get my grave stones to look more scattered and old- also any help making decals for an old worn out gravestone-look would be nice. I'm not great at making textures- I tend to be more of a mapper who relies on pre-made textures.
So... This is supposed to be part of my mod, called The Village. I have absolutely NO idea of storyline at the moment, but I find concentrating on the small details in maps bit-by-bit is a good way to start.
The church itself is probably going to be a part of the story; The eerie
graveyard, etc. I also may find a way of implementing changing from day-to-night; by changing brightness and sky etc on a timer or something.
Feedback Appreciated!
In other news...
I have to decide what to do for work experience week at some point, preferably before Christmas. Should I work in a shop, a library, at a center of something-or-other, or what?
What did you do (Or might do?) for work experience week?

Since Dota 2's alpha tools landed I've been practicing with the editor thoroughly. I want to hit the ground running if/when we ever get a full Source 2 SDK (and a sequel to that game that made them famous, Half... something or other?).
I can't stress how much I love the mesh tools, and the raw power they give back to any level designer who suffered with brush tools 10 years past their use by date.
Anyway, there's a ton of new hotkeys and commands I've been drilling into my brain and I decided I need a cheat sheet I can throw up on my second monitor while practicing, so I made one:
It's probably missing a couple of things, so I might add to it when I learn more, but I figure people here might find it useful enough. Share it around if you want, and let me know if I messed up somewhere!

In under a month the most important vote in my lifetime will take place. I am super psyched. Scotland finally has the chance to be free from the despicable far right elite in England.
All English and Welsh TWHLers will be welcome on my couch if they wish to emigrate after the vote.
Here's a great discussion on the matter if you want to get informed from an outsider looking in.
And here's an article that sums it up pretty brilliantly.

Has anybody from here heard about BitTorrent Sync? If you use it, how well does it perform?
If not, what is your favorite file-syncing app(not necessarily cloud)?
I use Dropbox but I'm looking for alternatives.

I was riding flatland bmx on my bike yesterday in the cul-de-sac in front of my house when a thunderstorm began to roll in. As the first lightning struck right in front of me I felt a strong shock in my left thumb. I had been slightly shocked by it!
I headed straight inside. My thumb is still very slightly stiff. I think I'm lucky I didn't get it worst.

I changed my Gigabyte HD4850 with an MSI HD7750. Now I can run Crysis FullHD.
My wife and I are making something. It won't be ready for about 7 months though.

Video has been uploaded, Check it out!
Do you ever just look back on your day and wonder what the actual hell you were doing?
I always tend to post my weird shoot experiences on here, but this one tops them all. So much unbelievable fun.
