Solillaquists of Sound - Mark It Place

Now that I think about it, This song reminds me of Jahzel. That's not a bad thing though, because it's awesome.

I think the lighting in the first room needs more contrast, and a bit more color. I would try making the fluorescent lights a bit dimmer, and give them a slight yellow or blue tint. Think about it, how many pure white lights do you come across?

Since my last post in this thread I have acquired a rather nice mic, and a small mixer with one mic input and one guitar input.

Badass. Not something I would have done, or advised you to do, but still badass.

I'd be willing to lend my voice, if nothing else.

But doodle might stop nagging me now.

Remember guys, this is "Chose Your Own Adventure" not "Dictate everything that happens".

You'd be like a perverted, drunken Jesus.

And that's just the games, plus a few I forgot.

Damn, I just made one

Mudkip dodges and uses... some beam type attack!Pwndizzle.

Like you can complain after that bit of tripe.

I'm not a fan of 4chan memes, honestly, just go with the flow.

Nickel sucks

Slowpoke uses Bubble Beam!And Saw, I've got 'em all saved and named in order. :>

(last update for now)

And so I raise my epic Hammeh, and strike the earth!Sweet.

Well, that's one magical item out the door. Maybe I should check out what these things can do?

I didn't really expect other people to jump in, but that's not to say I mind. (gawd I hate these emoticons)

The Nazis turn into bloks and teleport to a door! (because I finished these just as srry posted D:)I am such a badass.

Who's ass, exactly?

Three epic tools, but which to choose?

It's late, and I want to go to bed, but not without the next part. So, I'm just going to go ahead with PB's suggestion and go to sleep.Well that didn't work out! And where the hell did that hat come from?

Remember those Choose Your Own Adventure books we all used to play with? Well, it's time to relive that. Only with pictures and less linearity.

Here's how it's going to work: I'm going to post a drawing, and you suggest what the main character does next. After a bit I'll choose which answer I like best and draw what happens next. Some narration will be provided in first person, to add some context.

So, without further ado.This is an odd place. I don't really know why I'm here, or how I arrived, but I might as well have a look around.

Age: 15
Number of children: None at all
Country: United States of America

Second, answer:

What type of videogames do you play, and approximately how many hours a week.

FPS, RPG, War Strategy, Platfofmers, Third Person Shooters, card games. On an average week I'll play about twenty to twenty five hours. (way too much free time, I know.)

Other hobbies, you can include occupation here if you wish.

Music, Game Design, Poetry, Tae Kwon Do. (second degree black belt)

Are you a violent person? In other words, are you aggressive or do you get in fights?

I've only been in one fight before, and it was in self defense. I'm generally one of the more mellow and carefree people in the room, actually.

Do you agree with the current ESRB rating system? Does it work?

Maybe not as well as it should, but I think the problem is with the consumers rather than the actual rating system.

If you have, or if you will eventually have, children: how do you feel about them playing videogames with violent themes? At what age would you allow them to play T or M rated games? How would you determine when they were allowed to play these games?

I wouldn't be very strict here. My 11 year old brother has played a few M rated games and he's turning out fine.

If you do not have children, do/did your parents/guardians ever monitor or regulate what games you played? Were you not allow to play certain games until certain ages?

I wasn't allowed a Playstation until I was 11, and I didn't play an M rated game until I was 13. Even then it was Halo 2, and it's rating is arguable at best. Even now there's a few games I wouldn't get due to the content, but more in protection of my brother than myself.

And lastly, do you believe that in cases of teen violence the media should be held liable as an influence?

Only if the kid was a complete nut. Any sane human has a line between what's wrong and what's not, and a game isn't going to break it.

I like writing random poems when I'm bored. Most of them suck pretty bad, but whatever.

I was in a bad mood this day...

This feeling in my head
I can?t get it out
Writhing around
It?s more than just doubt

It?s a fear of what?s coming
It?s a thought of what?s passed
Life moves too slow
And the rest comes too fast

I long for those moments
When things seemed so right
The whole world in front of me
My future seemed bright

I suppose it still is
I?m just too depressed
I need to calm down
And stop sleeping less

Get my head straight
Remember what?s forgot
Get back to work
Just forget what I?m not

This is what I am
This is what I want
I flaunt what I?ve got
And I?ve got what I flaunt

People with all their problems
Tend to have one quite large
And that problem
Is whining at those in charge

They Bitch, they moan
They say "everything you do is wrong!"
They do all this while taking
Great big pulls from their great big bongs

They say they destroy
They say they pollute
They say they're evil
And worship death to boot

They don't mention the corperations
Or the cars people drive
It's the government!
That's why we're taking a dive!

Never the rescues or the peace
It's always the wars and the bombs
And to those god damned conspiracy nuts
Please put down the bongs!

Bush is the antichrist
And Cheney has no soul
The rest of them are liars
Just shut up, asshole!

Purdy, you should take up Source mapping.

If you're lucky Strideh might go on another drunken rampage while you're there.

august 21st was a monday. anyone got any ideas on that?

We put that on the list as "Green Day"

You can delete my post then.

EDIT: Or that

I'm on #twhl all the time, I think I deserve an emoticon...

A bun seasoned with onions and stuff with fresh Ham, Salami, and provolone cheese. All wrapped in tin foil and heated in the oven at 300 degrees (Fahrenheit) for twenty minutes. Add some kettle cooked potato chips, a good quality bottle of root beer, and you've got a damn good lunch on your hands.

The White Stripes - Icky Thump

Awesome album.

Not this again...

http://www.cnn.com/2007/WORLD/asiapcf/08/06/thai.hello.kitty.ap/index.html?iref=mpstoryview

"BANGKOK, Thailand (AP) -- Thai police officers who break rules will be forced to wear hot pink armbands featuring 'Hello Kitty,' the Japanese icon of cute, as a mark of shame, a senior officer said Monday."

lol, circular logic.

No, it's just another strike against you that you didn't notice that you're disregarding a ton of ideas here.

EDIT: I'm sorry strider, we will be good now.

Nice Photo. :>

I'm narrow-minded?

The fact that you don't realize that by now proves that you are.

According to Yahoo news the bridge had been patched up several times with makeshift materials. I'll be shocked if the conspiracy theorists don't jump on this one like a ravenous dingo on a slow kangaroo.

They're comfortable after you break them in.

True that. I've had mine for a couple years and they're much better now than the were when I got them.

I prefer Kasperg's maps, personally. I like how they're more based on real life, plus he maps for Source.

Elves vs. Dwarfs (from Lord of the Rings)

A ninja would win, because the samurais fight with rules and honor, the ninjas don't give a shit about those stuff, and just beat 'em the hell up.

Doesn't make samurai any less deadly, honor didn't slow them down in battle.

HS is a pile of fetid compost compared to BM. (no offense to the devs...)

EDIT: Started writing before WC posted, shit is more satisfying to say, so it wins.

Samurai Vs. Ninjas

My 10 year old brother downloaded it. I figure he needs something more simple, anyway.

July 3st for me.

Srry is in a grammer-free time warp!

oops...

I fail hard.

I think Converse shoes are very comfortable.

It is now July on the east coast!
