edonil Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Hey everyone, how goes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Better than yesterday at least! I hesitate to say things are going swimmingly in case I jinx the week, but so far no major disasters *wink* How about you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 No disasters are good! Did getting sleep help? I'm okay. Just found out that the essay that was so frustrating last week was covered (in detail!) in this week's readings. >.< I hate college. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dustcrusher Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Dust, try In The Emperor's Name, it's a 40k skirmish game written by a guy I know, it's pretty good and if it doesn't already have a experience system then it'll be very easy to implement one. Played the game a few times and it is easy and fun to play. I got the rules ages ago and they looked interesting. I liked how it covered everything from Rogue Trader creatures like Ambulls and Zoats to Tau and Necrons. Maybe I can rope some of the 40k players into trying it... Steak. Steak is always the answer... See also- Peelander-Z, "S.T.E.A.K." This is too amazing to not share: [ATTACH=CONFIG]9301[/ATTACH] It's like Chicken Boo from Animaniacs with a translator, hahaha. October 5th, 201X Can't see this without thinking of Strong Bad- "In the year twenty-exty-six!" (20X6) :-P Good- Got 3rd in the Malifaux Tournament and Best Painted (pfft). Bad- Barely won two of my three games (and they were against inexperienced players, no less), and the first game was such a rout it effectively put me out of the running right there. I blogged the details, but let's just say I'm less a fan of Ressers overall right now, but Avatar Nicodem is a lot of fun and the Book 4 models can't arrive soon enough.

LupusFerreus Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Does anyone else just want to buy every Malifaux crew? I swear I'm switching between Kaeris, Pandora, Kirai (a modelling project whilst I learn aSonnia) and Jacob. I'm just afraid of buying one and regretting it. Other than that hi, not been in here before. What's it like? I'm trying to not get sucked into the vacuous TV my flatmates are watching. Reality TV is such a bore!

edonil Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 (waves) Hey Lupus, welcome to the thread. It's pretty nice in here...watch out for the puppets though, they're tricky little buggers and have an interesting opinion of comedy. Honestly, I've got so many crews at this point it isn't even funny...and that was before Ten Thunders came out and I got a faction where I wanted to play nearly everyone, lol.

Mako Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Reality TV makes more sense that what goes on in here at times, but as long as you don't upset the puppets its usually pretty safe! And this place is full of people with huge painting and project lists so you should be right at home *wink* Ed, sleep did help when I eventually got some, today was a 2300 word day and tomorrow I start the Cerah arc again...

edonil Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 I love how the first warning that always comes to mind is the puppets... (notices puppets staring) Crap, they're paying attention to me now. This could be a problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Ok, that's just creepy Ed. We gave him the same warning at the same time... *spooky music plays* ---------- Post added at 11:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:48 PM ---------- Back away slowly and don't meet their gaze... Unless you have something to distract them with. And I don't mean me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Where's the egg and the bird when you need them? (sigh) I think they want what's left of my stash of cookies. (pulls out a box, starts handing cookies out) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LupusFerreus Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 I think I'm gonna go Kaeris + Rail Golem whilst I do my Kirai Shadow Khan list. Puppets? I'm still scarred after watching the Goosebumps TV show. I'm really scared of ventriloquist dummies! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 You get used to them after a while. Mako even trained the Slate Ridge Mauler puppet! The Master puppets still are a pain though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mako Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 I'm not too sure, I think slatey might need a little more training. *watches him jumping on Chocobo* Um, a lot more training. But he still has his little bow tie on, that's a start! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sliver Chocobo Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Evening Chocobo, how goes?

edonil Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Why do you have to be up early? (yawn) Why am I tired? Bah...I don't have time to nap right now. ---------- Post added at 06:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:19 PM ---------- Lupus, that Shadow Khan thread was yours?

Mako Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 That is a cool idea, I've been watching it. Not said anything cos I had nothing useful to add, but watching carefully! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted November 19, 2012 Report Share Posted November 19, 2012 Screw it. I'm gonna try for a one hour nap, see if that snaps me out of things. This week cannot go by fast enough... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 Heh, sounds like a plan. I've just had to redo the pin in the illuminated's foot. His toes weren't up to the task of holding a pin, they snapped off, so now its bent and fitted into his leg to mid shin, along the underside of his shoe, and out his toes. Need to green stuff a bit but it should be basically invisible... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 Hopefully that fixes it easily! I feel much better now. Got a lot more sleep than intended, so I'm most definitely behind on things, but I'll live. Sleep means I'll be able to actually comprehend what I'm working on!

Mako Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 That's probably quite useful! Any plans before work, or did you sleep until it work time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 Slept until work, unfortunately. Now it's time for finishing schoolwork, and that won't take too long, thankfully. Some interesting stuff in the lectures this week, so it's fun this time around. After that, I've got a scene started up with Soli, so that's good. And I'm trying to work out some more minor antagonists, I've got the majors figured out, but the others who don't have as much influence on the plot are still there and important. Right now I've got Antagonists Alpha and Beta (who are unnamed for now because of spoilers), Isabella, the Blue Devil and Jackal. I want to try to come up with a few more, so that'll be the note making goal of the week I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 Aww, no spoilers? I wish I could have done that, I can't help but feel you lost a bit of the drama by reading chapters in the order I wrote them lol. I have a difficult time working out which of the three you named I like most, they're all quite different but they're also all hilarious and epic... Wait, work can be fun? Man, I picked the wrong job :-P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 At least you're liking them, so I'll take that as a win! Honestly, it'll be interesting to see if Alpha and Beta come across as likeable as the others, just because the two of them are more hands off political conspirators. Wait. Is it a good thing that my villains are likeable? lol. I will say I'm looking forward to getting Jackal and Zygmunt in the same room, they really don't like each other. And on the subject of spoilers, you've actually got some hint of stuff on where things are going from Carver, honestly. Which is part of why I stopped updating that story, to limit the spoilers coming from there. But, I do intend to finish that story, so that will be happening at some point! The trick is to keep Victor, Arias and Soli as more likeable than their counterparts on the other side, though. ---------- Post added at 10:15 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:12 PM ---------- And, to be honest, you've met Alpha and Beta, if you want to try to figure out who they are. If you guess right, I'll be straight with ya! And don't worry about the spoilers with me, I'm still lost on where the plot is going, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
