That was stupid

So there's a cute girl in my Chem class. I just gave her my phone number.   I've never done that before and now I'm freaking out.   I think this is the reason I never talk to anybody.   Excuse me while I curl up in a ball and hate myself.

So yeah. I'm utterly terrible. (Right Burnmad?) But it was a blast. (punpunpunpunpunpun)

Terraria problems.

I recently built myself a sky fortress in awareness that hardmode might be approaching. This sounded awesome until I heard that wyverns spawn at that altitude and can faze through walls. So than I get a bright idea: Lets surround the fortress with lava! Three empty tiles all the way around, and I've taken several trips and am not even close to filling it...

Terraria on 3DS

So apparently there is now a digital version of Terraria on 3DS. which I had no idea was happening but here we are.   For reasons I do not understand, physical versions are coming for both the Wii U and the 3DS, but the 3DS version is priced at $20 for the digital version, while the physical version is $30, and it's releasing the end of February.   I understand charging more for a physical version, but why more then 3 months after the digital version?

Terraria hardmode in a nutshell

Me: Let's spawn the destroyer and snipe it from my space fortress. Destroyer: Oh hey look! I can get in! Me: Yeah, I'm doomed.   And that's why I can't progress in hard mode.

Super Metroid!

Finally! It reminds me of when I used to play zero mission when I was younger. (Say what you will, but I found that game immensely entertaining as a child)   Things that have killed me so far:   Some spikes A random creature A mutant plant from the ceiling (Probably has a name.) A freaking chozo statue (Did not expect that one.)

Super Metroid: Clear!

This one took far too long. Really, really great game. Brought me back to when I played Zero Mission as a kid.   Next up: Prime! If I can get through that omega pirate...

Super Mario Maker

I managed to grab the game earlier this morning. I feel like this game has a huge amount of potential, but I'm still getting used to how everything works.   I also managed to get a hold of Zero Suit Samus and Ganondorf, as well as grabbing a Pit when he went up online.   If anyone else here got the game let me know as I'd be happy to try out some new levels.

Steam Summer Sale

Ah yes. That wonderful time of year where setting my wallet on fire is more fiscally responsible then going on my computer.   While we're on the subject, Both Bastion and Transistor are currently on sale.   And Bastion is like... REALLY good. So yeah. Just a suggestion.

Steam sale cards up for grabs!

So I have 4 steam sale cards that I'm probably never going to use. These are:   2 For pixel Piracy at 25% off one for 10 Second Ninja at 66% off and one for Richard and Alice at 66% off   The last two are good for about two weeks the Piracy ones are good well into next year.

Steam Controller

My Eary Bird steam Controller came in.   I've wanted a controller that gives me the ability to use mouse precision with the convenience of a controller layout for quite a while. And this might actually do that, but there are clearly some stuff to be sorted out with it.   Overall I'm fairly happy with the controller. It probably helps that the thing is massive to accommodate my stupidly spindly fingers.

Statistics are weird

So for some reason my mind started wandering (again) and this simple sounding topic came into my brain. Statistics. Percentages. It's really odd how we use them. we use them in weather, we say there's a 39.54% chance of rain. but in reality, it's either going to rain. Or it isn't. in science, if you do an experiment, than do it again, the exact same way it was done before, it should have the same results. of course you would have to assume nothing changed. which is probably never safe to assume.

Star Wars

I am immune to the spoilers.   (I wasn't planning on seeing it opening day but my friend insisted.)   But I greatly enjoyed it.

Spec Ops: The Line

If you have not played the game That right there is pretty close to the entire premise of it.   If you have, you may remember a certain portion of the game having an uncanny resemblance to that comic.   All sources I could gather say this comic and said game have absolutely no link whatsoever. (This comic is from 2011, the game released in 2012 and development started in 2007, with a demo that shows the games direction and tone released in 2009.)   So make of that what you will.

Someone Explain Fire Emblem to Me

I get the basic principle of the game, it's basically a more advanced chess match. But anything beyond that is eluding me.   I've been able to struggle most of my way through some if Awakening but I've hit a point where I got stuck and put it down, and am hoping to pick it up after I'm willing to remove Pokemon from my system.   It might be worth noting that I don't generally play turn based strategy games.   So, any tips?

So. Springer.

Yeah. I got one. Dang. I knew he was going to be cool. But dang. He is really imoressive. And he looks awesome next to Orion.

So I'm officially done complaining about boredom

Most days after school I don't do much. Today was not one of these days. I was walking home from school and attracted a pair of Huskies. Well, me being the animal lover I am decided to herd them into my backyard and figure out what to do. Unfortunately for me I have dogs of my own and didn't fancy them meeting and causing more issues. So I tied them up in my front yard and a neighbor came to see what was going on.   Long story short, after a couple hours I managed to find a place to keep them u

So I have a new computer.

Well, new to me, it's technically a bunch of old parts in a box, and at the current time it functions, but I have nothing to plug it into. So when I get a monitor and a wifi USB adapter and I'll see how it compares to my laptop. But this is kinda special to me because I built it. Well, mostly, my dad gave me the parts and walked me through how to put it together.   And motherboards look like cities.   I also won a BZP raffle and that's kinda cool. Also my bow is getting tuned up and I want it t

So apparently there's a The Giver movie coming out

And I don't know how to feel about that. I'm not entirely sure the ideas conveyed in the book can even be put on a screen effectively. What made the book so awesome was that the viewpoint was from someone who had only ever lived in that world, meaning anything and everything that was so alien and wrong with the society in the book was given almost no attention until the character starts seeing things he isn't normally supposed to. The fact that that's being put on a screen severely takes away fr

Smash Bros Direct

I'm seriously ticked that Samus and Zelda No longer switch forms.   It probably won't end up being a huge deal, but I liked that feature.   Also they're playing the Kid Icarus guitar theme (The name is escaping me) Which is fantastic. I'll update if there's anything else to say.

Smash

I'm enjoying this game far too much. I just got through running the ten man brawl with every character. (Meaning I've actually played every character now.) But for some reason I'm having a lot of trouble with All-Star mode. I've only beaten it twice and I keep royally screwing up for stupid reasons.   And I really like the Mii fighters. They're a lot of fun to mess around with. So far I've made Korra(Brawler), Myself(Swordfighter, obviously), and a full team of characters from a book I swear I'l
