XCOM: Enemy Unknown

So I stumbled upon XCOM: Enemy Unknown while mindlessly browsing the Steam Store. Once I looked at it, I was A. bewildered that I had never seen this before and assumed that this rock I had been living under was in fact hindering my knowledge of the outside world and B. instantly hooked. I tried to tell myself that I would wait until the Winter Sale to nab it.   I caved. It's downloading now.   I'm cautiously optimistic, so you guys tell me: was it worth? #worth, even?

Why I Love My Orchestra Conductor

First off, hi there! Been a while. I'll post a life-update thing soon-ish.   Anyways, my high-school orchestra conductor may be one of the nicest, most supportive people I have ever met or will ever meet. He's an older man, but he's always full of a joyful energy and can often be seen with a huge grin across his face. He always tells us that he loves us and that we're his favorites, and it's one of the most adorable, fulfilling things to hear him talk.   So a few days ago (last Friday, to be exa

Why Djs Are Awesome People

"Haters are going to hate regardless, but at least do some research for yourself before you jump on the hater train headed to Failsville like a sheep."   -Excision   Well, in other news, I've decided to make a return to BZPower by rebooting the Toa Makoki epic originally started by Nausicaa. This time around, the participants will be Nausicaa (who will be active from another website), Neelh, Chibinuva, and myself, with some additional characters as well. I'll put up some character art somet

What's the Matter?

What's the matter, Bill?   Apart from that, Psych finally announced that this season will be their last. It's a little bittersweet: they should go out on top, but I'm sad one of my favorite TV shows is saying goodbye.   This place is still staying Danger Music for the foreseeable future, though. =D

What Happens When Your Steam Account is Hacked

So a few days ago my Steam account got hacked. Not a particularly fun experience. Was locked out for a few days, and I almost had my TF2 items taken from me.   Luckily enough, Steam Customer Service was able to get me my Unusuals and Pro Killstreak Southern Hospitality back.   So just be careful what links you click on, people. Stay safe out there.

Well, that wasn't too bad.

So after a few days of hatching Charmander eggs, I got lucky and got this guy. Literally did a double take when I realized he was shiny. 5 IV, but not exactly the 5 IVs I was looking for- I got Attack instead of HP (I'm gonna train him to be a special glass cannon or something) but that's not too consequential.   However, I'm at a loss for what to name him, so please write some suggestions for me in the comments! Keep in mind that he'll be a Charizard someday. Looking from anything from cool to

Tobias Gene: Bio and Art

Some new stuff! Woo! Check out my latest Hero Factory fan art here.   And for a HUGE-ish bio on said character:   ---   Name: Tobias Gene   History: Tobias Gene was created as a 2.0 Hero sometime between Mission: Ordeal of Fire and Mission: Savage Planet. He was created at the same time as Sydney Ace; after their creation, both were assigned to train as rookies under Delta 12 team, lead by Cedric Talon. The two heroes developed a sort of kinship, and became close friends. During Mission: Hunter'

This is the Week

So this is the week of everything. Which sounds like every week in high school but.   Tomorrow we test our physics project: a windmill that, when powered by a fan, has to lift a 100 gram weight one meter off of the ground. The catch: we're graded by our time; the person whose windmill lifts the weight in the shortest amount of time gets a 100%, and the rest of the grades are based off of that. The lowest time gets, at most, an 80%. It's worth three lab grades. While I get why the project is grad

Thinking About Getting Fallout 4

I haven't played any of the Fallout games before, but I got caught up in my friends' hype over Fallout 4 and I have to say it looks like the kind of game I would like. It's got intense customization of both character skills and character appearance, and it gives plenty of room for your character to develop and grow if you want to roleplay- at least, from what I've seen and heard of it. Plus the setting and aesthetic seem unique enough, so...   Do you think I should get my first Fallout game by b

Things I Want to Happen

(note: most of these pertain to movies, video games, etc. so don't keep reading if that's not yo thang)   I want:   -Marvel Studios to purchase the rights to Fantastic Four back, but do nothing much with the actual Fantastic Four themselves. Rather, give Doctor Doom a solo movie that leads into Avengers 4, in which he's the main villain. In said movie, he's presented at first as a sympathetic child born from tragedy (his mother gets killed in a deal with the devil I mean that kinda sucks). It ma

TF2 Modeling: Take 2

So trying to model a hat for Team Fortress 2 again, seeing how it goes. Here's my progress so far:   Pic 1 Pic 2   Making a fedora-thing for the Engineer still. I think that it's pretty good so far; maybe it could use a few tweaks. I'd be glad to hear other people's thoughts on it so far.   Side note: is there anyone here who can texture? Out of curiosity.

TF2 Modeling

So recently I've tried my hand at modeling in Blender. I'm working on creating a hat for Team Fortress 2 to submit through the Steam Workshop. Mainly because I want something sparkly to wear on my Engineer's head. And also because cash money.   I've finished the model and I'm working on figuring out the best way to UV unwrap this thing.   if I succeed, maybe, just maybe   the engineer will finally have the trilby he deserves   but probably not

Terrific Rim

Wonderful movie. It's a visual masterpiece (as with most Guillermo del Toro movies), and is all around awesome.   Go see it. Now. I'm not kidding.

Sup Y'all

The new forums are okay, but they'll take a while to get used to.   I'm not sure that I'll continue ADU, so its up to you guys to convince me to do so. (And by you guys I mean whichever unfortunate soul stumbles upon my blog) In the meantime, check these out.   EDIT: It looks like the links I put in this aren't working. So just go to my profile and check out my art. Please.

Starbound

I'm starting to really get into this game. It has a lot of things that I would like to see out of an adventure game, such as in-depth customization and exploration. Granted, it's not done yet, but the direction the developers seem to be taking it is awesome.   Might do some fanart of my Glitch character, Gallant, once I reach tier 10. Stay tuned. :3

something about bonkles pt. 2

I never thought I would see this day come! And if it ever did happen I didn't think it would mean this much to me but it does. BIONICLE is back, at least for the time being, and I am incredibly hyped.   The fact that we're bringing back something akin to the quest for the Masks of Power is nice. Going back to the roots of BIONICLE is probably a good idea, but I still sincerely hope that this is a reboot and not a continuation, mainly because the latter would be too confusing to incoming fans (am

So Horses

So I recently added a horse to my plethora of pets on my Minecraft survival world. However, I have absolutely no idea what to name it.   Any thoughts? I was thinking Ronald Raygun, but I'm not sure.

Shiny Pokemon!

So I was able to chain for another shiny yesterday, this time a Flabébé (click for pic) which I named Flora. I know the pic is of a Floette but it's a lot easier to tell that Floette is shiny.   That's in addition to my shiny Lucario (click again), Yellowjacket. Two shiny Pokemon! I am content.   Thinking about chaining for a Skiddo next? Suggestions are welcome.   EDIT: haha wait what   randomly encountered this guy in a safari and now i don't know what to do
