I had to pull an all-nighter for an eye doctor appointment sense my schedule is so derped up.
It ended up being 10 minutes long.

On the bright side, I have butt-kicking awesome vision. -.-

TFW 5 gold medals + PotG as Lucio on a losing team.

Ow, my back.

I couldn't even log in to LoE, lol.
Oh well, as disappointing as it is I did have most of my week end planned out for studying moosic. :v

I think the servers are wonky. I apparently dropped dead from a heart attack in the middle of Ponydale.

I doubt it's the servers.
It just said "LoE has stopped working" at the first loading screen after character creation.
But hey, the game's in alpha s it's expected.

Is it actually possible to get play of the game without being completely offensive-based? I'm saying because I've never seen Symmetra or Mercy or even Mei get one. Doesn't healing factor in too?

Healing does factor in but it's overshadowed because kills are worth a lot more 'points' in the system, and it's not possible to heal someone to death so healers don't get elimination points.

The easiest way to get it as Lucio is by knocking people off cliffs. The game values environmental kills highly when it comes to PotG, so basically if you knock 2+ people off at once you're going to get it. The only time I've ever seen Mercy get it is when she gets off a big rez. And I've gotten it only once as Mei before when I spammed icicles into a choke point and got several lucky headshots in a row, I don't think her CC counts at all.

With the LoE chat gone it's really boring now, because all my other chats have come and gone, Just me and my music.... Or more liekly than not me and Minecraft. lol

Wish I could at least access LoE without it crashing on me. lol

What is the deal with gamers and face cams? Like...why? Personally I can't stand to watch gameplay videos with facecams. It's really awkward having some dude's face in the corner of the screen blankly staring at me...freaky man, freaky.

I could understand a hand cam for high-level play, since it proves they aren't cheating, but a face cam?

OH MY LORD, everyone.
I tried to get on LoE today, only to find my account had been BANNED. And this was within a day of someone hacking my Twitter.
Please, if anything rude or inappropriate was posted by my account, that WAS NOT ME.

Oh shoot! That's scary man, and it sucks!

Sorry to hear that bad news. Can't believe someone would hack into it. Really grinds me when something like that happens.

Be best to change it now. This will sucks so badly if you can't get in anymore for the remainder of this OSW.

The Mods are working on the issue with bans, it is not an intentional issue but I can't discuss issues at this time

With most of the facecams I've seen, the player isn't looking directly at the camera, but they might sometimes look at it.

I think, mostly, it's because there are a lot of people who demand it. I've seen people tell Cryaotic to start having a facecam, but he refuses. Part of it is, he doesn't want anyone to know what he looks like, to protect his privacy, but another part is, he says that his face has nothing to do with the game he's playing. He feels that what we're supposed to be paying attention to is the game he's playing and what he has to say about it, not the look on his face when something happens.

That's why people want facecams: To see the expressions on the Let's Player's face. That's all well and good for horror games, but not much else, unless the LPer actually involves the facecam in some entertaining way rather than it just being there.

Raaaagghhh!!!
People keep posting game glitches in the "Site suggestions and bugs" section!
It directly said it's not for the game!

People, please.... :facehoof:

I'd like to know why the highway maintenance in my area is so heinously slow. I'm not sure whether the workers are state employees or if they contract it out but for God's sake, they will dig up the road and then just leave it like that for months on end like it's no big deal.

There's a highway on the border between Fort Worth and Haltom City that's been dug up since at least May. It's normally a 6-lane highway (3 lanes each way), but now the traffic is being funnel into to 2 measly lanes. Personally I've only driven that way after 1AM, I can only imagine how congested it is during the day, I'm sure it's really hurting the businesses in that area.

Lazy world building. Or, more specifically, stories that either simple recreate modern times with ponies or stories where they just sort to forget to give their world a history. I should be able to look past it easily, honestly, we are in one of the most creative fandoms out there, but it really bugs me when I open up a story and see that not a lot of thought has been put into the total history of the world the story takes place in.

For instance, a lot of stories see the 1000 year gap where Luna isn't around, and just kind stop right there. Sure, they may make Luna feel like a outsider, she may not know what's exactly is happening at the moment, but she gets into the loop of things fairly quickly, and surprising, not too much (comparatively to our own time) has changed. Take that and compare it to any 1000 year period in human history, and it just plain ole doesn't compare to the differences we would of had. I don't know, it just kinda bugs me.
What is the strongest weapon of ponykind? The Elements of Harmony? No! The Princesses? No! The cannon? The spear? The horn? Not at all! Courage and courage alone stands above them all!

I'm trying to get my calorie intake in check, but I'm prone to binging every now and then. I'm used to eating a lot of food and now that I'm not working I have to break the habit or I'll get fat.

I've been sticking to 4 small meals a day with no snacking between meals for a while now, but tonight I had a real hankering for sugar and I got the random idea to go to KFC and get one of their chocolate cakes, so I did.

Long story short I ate 3/4 of it in one sitting. I feel like a gluttonous fatbody now.

Got a tooth yanked out of my head, and I have to go back and get another one pulled.
I already live in Ohio, I don't want to look like a toothless hick. :'(

At least they're sorta far back....
But no solid food for a few days. :c
