On Point Resolve

I, Latufia Lunda Othella Piyufi, do hereby resolve for the year of Two Thousand and Eight:

To use fewer ellipses. Variety in punctuation is always fun.

To continue never bumping any blog entries. I will accept whatever attention an entry gets and live with it.

To not host a freebuild contest. That's the last thing we need right now. It would take, at the very least, three other admins and maybe a Global or two to make me host one. It's not happening. Don't even bother suggesting one.

To post more things. Seriously, my backlog for all manner of things is huge. This isn't even counting the stuff I want to do. All this is before considering that I will likely do other new things in the future. These three categories combined make for a lot of things. Ye gods.

To review more stuff. Sometimes things just have to be said.

To continue to stress the importance of anatomies and understanding how things work in real life. Before you get a style of your own, you gotta know the basics. Know how men, women, children, mammals, insects, houses, boats, landscapes, lighting, and all those other things are put together. You do not do yourself any favours by saying 'screw that' and uttering the ancient cry of 'it's how I do things, not all things have to be exactly like real life, geez stop stifling me'. Learn how the real-world things work and come together. Practice, practice, practice. Then, once you are confident, do you make your changes. But just building/drawing the symbol? That's laziness, folks. There's no excuse.

To not get so depressed by the 'mockery of noobs' culture. There are people better than this out there. You know that, Jen. You know some of them. They are a lovely, intelligent, pleasant sort of people. They're quiet, is all. These people exist. Hope is not lost. Chin up and go kill some sigs or something.

To actually post blog entries every so often. And cheery ones at that. Seriously, what is this entry? It almost sounds like I'm capable of brooding! That just ain't right. I'm'a thinking I need something Willis, pronto.

Good thing about the no free-builds. As a MOCist, I find it quite difficult to just build something with no inspiration or goals in mind.

 

A free build is no challenge for the fact that most people just throw up a couple of MOCs they alread have. :glare:

 

This year, I want to maybe see you throw up an entry for a contest. :psychotwitch:

 

As for bumping blogs and the noob thing, I'll just leave it at this. :P

 

Jen???

Hmmm... Here's a Willis:

 

Willis!

This will do just fine. Many thank yous.

 

Nothing on being nicer to your minions?

 

:P

Well, you see, the minions have things they have to work on first. :P

 

Would posting a new BBCC (yes I used 2 'c's) this month be on that list anywhere?

 

))Z((

Most certainly not. I have no intentions of posting a new contest this month at all.

Freebuilds are icky anyhow. Too big, too long, too many random entries that don't even seem to have any sort of intent...

 

Besides, far more interesting contests have been held. I'm still annoyed with myself for not getting the time aside for that "Build Something" contest... That would have been awesome to work in.

 

Any plans for BBCC 50? I remember 25 was big... Any chance of seeing something similar again? (And it must be easier for the staff, having so few entries.)

 

Anyhow... Hope 2008's better than 2007 for yas. ^^

Check the front page news stories. :psychotwitch:

 

Aye, the mocking crowd is too busy yelling pointless phrases and inflating their own egos to notice the soft-voiced logical people with the sharp pins. :P

What would ye be calling the latest contest? What exactly qualifies as a freebuild, anyway? I would think it's something where there is no theme(which would seem to be this one) to make your creation seem like, but maybe you have another opinion of the word. Certainly your opinion outranks mine, with you being the hostess(darn it :P) but that's just what I think of as a free build.

 

*is glad he is not a minion*
