Make that raiseyourfist.

I AM NOW RAISEYOURFISTANDRESIST. I've changed my username everywhere but here, so from now on I'm raiseyourfistandresist, I see no reason to have a different username everywhere but here.

Still no computer, however concept, layout, textures, planning for new level are well underway. This will be the nest map I have ever made. However, because of some of my plans I'll have to do some serious stuff to keep r_speeds down, as this map will be rather complicated, even though it is small. I'll post screenies once I get my computer back (in the next few days). For this level I've had to read up on tutorials to figure everything out. Keep posted for screenies (or sketches, depending when I get my computer back).

Super good mood, my band be opening for an awesome band soon. Well, computer still down... got awesome plans for a map.

Came up with an awesome idea with a map, just need my computer back so I can build it. Well... still roughly five days 'till it should be ready. I'll just work on some textures and stuff 'till I get it back, work out the best possible layout. I know all about flow and stuff so when I really want to make an awesome level, both in the way it looks, and the way it plays I can do it. I just need to sit down and go over the layout. Most concepts can be changed to fit any particular layout unless mapping real world stuff. I did my basement, and, as I discovered, my house has amazing flow. It makes and awesome semi-circular map. Well, peace.

P.S. Stay away from TV and those Capitalist donation machines.

Well... concert was awesome. Blah blah blah, computer back soon, you don't care because nobody has ever seen my maps except for friends at LAN parties, and a few other individuals. WEll, wait 'till my computer is back online and you will all feel the wrath of my talent. MY frend is telling me to type in leet (ya, spelling it like that) but I refuse. WEll, going to play chess and annihillate the bee-otch... just joking. But anyway... y'all have fun mapping.

Now, on to pretending that last entry never happenned. Well... I finally took my computer in today. Let's hope it's nothing more serious than a fried motherboard... just replace that and things will be happy again. I'm at a friend's house tonight, going to a punk show tonight. Can't remember who's playing. Well... hopefully I'll be mapping again soon.

I'm in art class... SNACK-ATTACK!!!!

Anyway, Stu, Nick and Kelly are very cool. So is Vicky and Rick, but they are gay together. Please ignore this.

Computer still down, ugh, signing in from school right now.

Ugh... computer still down... frustrating. Well... with all this time to think about maps, once I replace my motherboard my maps should be pretty good.

My avatar is one of my cats... being on my Dad's computer has allowed me to find some new pictures of my family... and my cats. I'm so bored right now... I'm melting without hammer... I just wrote a piece for string orchestra. Yes, that bored. Amazingly enough, it doesn't suck. This makes me happy, but my lack of computer is still mad anti-groovin'.

Computer still dead... I guess I'll just play guitar and think instead.

Working on a site to showcase my maps... not that anyone pays attention to me anyway... working on a hella cool map inspired partially by the final level in Halo 2... however, I'm not moving to the source engine yet, I'm still getting the hang of the half-life engine (I'm a late bloomer... actually I've only been mapping for like 2 months)... once I get everything straight and can make and finish a decent half-life level I'll move up

No major projects to report.
