    Why?

    By Noxryn,

    I see I lost a star, oh well! =)
     
    Alright I became part of the SSCC on the 20th at sometime and am happy to say "Ready for duty sir!" =P
     
    I have also written up a new SS on the 19th, I am too lazt to provide a link right now, but if curiousity is going to kill you over, link to library in sig, and link to story in library. (Loneliness is its name BTW)
     
    I changed me name from Last Stand's Teleporter to Spink. Yes Spink, I like the word Spink as I like saying it for some odd reason or other.
     
    Sooooo, today I have been reading around and about and noticed a slight increase in CoT of these "what is the ___est thing you have seen?" topics. At a first glance I deemed them as harmless when the first was made, but then there was a second and a third, and I believe a fourth possibly a fifth.
     
    I posted in some yes, because I found them interesting at the time, but I guess what I am trying to say is, if the "What is your ____ plan?" topics had all been shut down and a rule made against making them for the reason that they were choking up the forum and getting to be annoying and spammy at times, why go down the same path with these new ones?
     
    Perhaps it is because the first did so well and you wished to have another topic do just as well so you post practically the same question, but slightly modified. Like instead of saying "What is the cutest thing you have seen?" and then making practically the same topic twenty or so minutes after saying "What is the ugliest thing you have seen?"
     
    (note I am just using this particular topic as an example and is nothing more than that)
     
    I mean, perhaps one or two would be good for a while, but why make so many more when the others are still around? Even if you have slightly different topics? From what I see so far is that a few of the newer ones have become a tad bit spammy (not that much, but it is there) and then I began to wonder if there would be a new rule about these topics as well.
     
    (On a similiar note, more of a suggestion, if you have a topic that can be made into several thousand other topics like the two I have just mentioned, why not wait until the first one or two are dead before making a new one, as in my personall thinking you would get more replies that aren't spammy and stay on topic better.
     
    I just thought I should clear that long thought out of my head as it was daring me to post it and I don't like being challenge like that so I posted it.
     
    Feel free to post negative and/or positive feedback about my little statement.
     
    That is all that was on my mind.

    A Thought For Things

    By Noxryn,

    This is an RPG based entry due to something that had happened earlier, and would like to simply go on about it.
     
    If you (or anyone) starts up a RPG in any of the forums you can, and then you have to leave the RPG for a temporary amount of time (note: I said Temporary, not forever) please, you don't need to shut the entire thing down. If you want to do the plot yourself, then just tell a Moderator to keep everyone entertained and do some random instigated fights, or even a minor sub plot thing off to the side.
     
    It would A) Keep the topic alive 2) (can't use "B") it would give the players something to play around with just for fun and would be able to take advantage of the extension in time the RPG lasts, and C) It'd end up making the players, appointed staff, and the guests who read it happy.
     
    If a RPG has staff (this particular one did) you could always simply tell them what you want to happen next, let them execute that action and keep the thing rolling, RPGs don't just revolve around the GM, it revolves around everyone as a whole and no individual. If it revolved around an individual things get suckish and people can't make much of a difference story wise.
     
    Leaving actually may allow interesting things to spring up as it wouldn't be constant plot movement, but it'd be "Free roam" if you will, for players to be able to do things that would take a while now, rather than not being able to implement the idea at all. (Staff would approve of this idea of course)
     
    Another thing is that things would die down for a while as far as fighting may go and perhaps there are players waiting for a time to make a romantic sub-plot to their characters, or do some character development. BUT when you shut it all down these possibilities are not possible for now, and eventually interest in the closed RPG would die away and no one except the old members would pop back in.
     
    If I was running an RPG and then had to take a break, or got banned (via parent not Staff) from BZP, I'd hand the RPG over to the most capable member and say either "Do, this this and this" or "Do whatever you want that doesn't mess with; This this and this." then I get to come back and see how everyone did without me and if I can trust them as individuals alone with a trusted member. - There are times where I have actually seen positive results, I don't usually see negative results from this as the other members put things into place, and say "Don't do that, no that's not a fair thing to do, maybe you could do this" or "Maybe we could do this" or even a more deeply detailed and interesting idea springs forth.
     
    And guess what? If the GM does not approve of it even when he/she comes back, there's something that's been invented known as "Moderator characters" which can warp reality and undo these things that are not liked, that's the point of them to exist.
     
    And if you have staff of the RPG, it's their job to take responsibility for it while you (The GM) is gone, and so wouldn't it make sense to leave things in the capable member's hands? (I am not saying I'm a capable member, but there are members who are) If you don't doesn't that kill the point of there even being staff in the first place as you want to do everything yourself?
     
    I am not bashing people who do shut down their RPGs when the leave temporarily (even if it is for a few months), I am just saying there is a better option than going that far with it, because it becomes a pain to get it reapproved and the members want to play in it and wrap up what they were doing. It sux a lot when you cannot at least wrap up what you were doing in game, and then have to wait who knows how long to do so again.
     
    One more thing is that, when the GM is gone and the RPG shoots up twenty seven or so pages, gets a high increase in viewers, and everyone is having fun, isn't it just best to let eevryone have fun and to know that your RPG is flourishing even if you aren't there?
     
    Feel free to rip my thoughts to pieces if you disagree, I am only stating my own personal views on this matter.

I will now add a Table of Contents, so that when you want to know something, just look for the number that corresponds with the subject.

    Sixteen Years.

    By Noxryn,

    Sixteen years of my life is all planned out. I just need to put the effort that is needed into High School and College in order for no real problems to arise. And more physical stuff, that's all being done though anyway.

    Bleh.

    By Noxryn,

    I feel all bleh today. Especially in PE, during the entire class I felt like there was something lodged in my throat, and with running for ten minutes then more exercises after that, it makes me light-headed feeling and nauseous. Didn't start feeling weird until after I ran for the ten minutes. It also changed my mood, from like, happy that it was last period, to really aggravated over something I do not know of. It was rather... weird.
     
    But now I feel better, which is good.
     
    Also: Finished Neon Genesis Evangelion, except for one of the movies cuz I can't find it on any site, so I might order it off of Netflix... despite how much I don't like them <<
     
    Also Also: I started doodling again in this sketchpad/book thingy I had last year during art class (I really wish Art had been an elective this year ;-; ). As I went through it, I remembered all of the assignments from last year (duh), but I also found some old character drawings I did of RP-Chars, more to get the robotic/mechanical aspect of things down, which means that it was mainly Bionicle RPG characters (Kri for instance, people who played in NoI would remember her), and some funky helmet thingy I made.
     
    There was also a ship that looked confused as to what it was.
     
    But yeah.
     
    I started to draw up one of the Angels from Evangelion, cuz this one specifically looked cool (The first one encountered in the anime, by the viewer... can't remember its name). I actually like how I shaped it -- looked spot-on, but when I started to fill in details... yeah, that's where I crashed and burned XP

    ^^

    By Noxryn,

    So I had a grade in French, which was not at all satisfactory, which was due to the not-graded project (which I did in eight hours via PowerPoint~), but after the project is in and stuff, she decided to count it as if it wasn't late, and now my grade in french is no longer that bloody D- and is now a nice looking A- =3
     
    Also: Got a 97% (Extra credit not graded yet~) on a test everyone else failed.
     
    It makes me feel smart.

    Snow Troopers.

    By Noxryn,

    One is not enough.
     
    But there was only one in the AT-AT set. I must find some more of these neat lil' guys. (Which isn't hard but finding them in bulk for cheapish is hard)
     
    (I also embarrassed myself by calling it the "AT&T" << >>)

    An Owl

    By Noxryn,

    So, on Tuesday when I was conveniently not home and was busy at a location 30 minutes away, there was an owl outside that was looking around. However, my sister took some pictures of it (lots of them being very blurry), but I hunted down one of the pictures that is really clear (To me at least).
     
    So yeah, here's the picture of the owl.

    18

    By Noxryn,

    I wrote 18 decent Short Stories on this site in the course of three years. That is obviously not enough, and I may look into writing some more COT works since my list with those is ten less than that of the Bionicle SSs...
     
    If anyone has an idea for a fun plot tell me XP
  24. Noxryn

    Mini- Rantish- Thingy.

    By Noxryn,

    First, I'll open up with a rant/min-rant/whatever it actually becomes.
     
    There's always been this issue at my school, and this issue stems from how people traverse through the hallways, the very narrow, cramped hallways. For instance, walking in a horizontal line across the hall, moving at literally three steps a second is not a nice thing to do. People get stuck behind you and need to get to their class which is on the opposite side of the building, and because of the slow traversing, they end up being late in the end. Being late hurts the actual grade (at my school) so forcing others to be late because you're being lazy in picking up the pace is not cool. (Using "you" to refer to the people in my head, no one here). It's also quite annoying when a bunch of people happen to stop on the cramped stairwell to chat and hug, holding everyone up an extra two minutes while causing a huge line that goes down the cramped hall. If you want to hug and chat, that's amazingly fine, just do that somewhere where you won't make people late, or make people unhappy just to make yourself happy -- it's being rather selfish, in a way. Yet, there's even more hallway instances that are incredibly annoying. For another, cutting someone off and pushing them over isn't cool, it makes you look like a mean bully who doesn't give a karz about the comfort of anyone around them. Pushing, shoving, insulting, kicking, hitting, smacking, yelling, stopping in the middle of the hall, tripping people because it's "funny" are not cool or awesome things to do in the hall. Many are dangerous, many are hurtful, and many are just so annoying that if done, Spink's interdimensional fist may end up down your throat.
     
    So yes, mini-rant about all the annoying things I deal with in the school hall. Someone who attempted to trip me messed up and nearly had his leg broken as I stepped on it by mistake. <<
     
    (Also: Look both ways before you cross the street, a group of teenagers around my age skipped that and were nearly mauled over by my mom's car. Care about yourself and your safety as well as the fact that if you die/get hurt because you did something stupid, it's the person in the car who gets sued).
     
    But onto the main idea that came to my head when I typed this entry originally...
     
    My fingers are cold, I am cold, and the upstairs is freezing and that's about it.
     
    But yes, have a nice day.
