How have you been, Salad?

Comments

[mewbladexxx]

... Busy. Kinda stressed, addicted to Minecraft. Playing on the server. Need Redstone Lamps. :3 Donations? Maybe?

But otherwise, good! I have recently found an increase in my Chess skill! Yeah! :D

[damnreddit]

Chess? Another chess player here? Cool! I haven't played in over a year, but I go through bouts of problem-solving on chesstempo.com every so often. How improvement?

Oh, and topic, topic ... Nothing much. I'm busy for the next week or three, but after that should be much better. I'd really like to get two or three partly-completed fics done, and I think it will happen, just don't really have the time to focus at the moment. I'd also like to play on the server some more, but not much time for that either. (Speaking of which, you can feel free to steal some redstone from me -- I haz nether portal nao! -- but I suspect what you actually need is glowstone. :D) Come on, mid-September!

[mewbladexxx]

Yeah, Glowstone. I really need to go out far for Glowstone. It's not easy to find. The easily accessible Glowstone's all gone. And I don't want to lose Kame, the awesome Fortune Pick Rose gave me. :3

Chess - I don't loose in 10 turns now. XD Me 'n Cello - that's his nickname - managed to get each other down to a King each. All we had was our one King. XD We called it draw after that to finish our lunch.

[damnreddit]

I feel like I'm very late getting to quartz and glowstone -- I don't have any yet. I'm not exactly against ridiculously lengthy nether reconnaissance, though; I just need to find time to do it. And either fortune or silk touch would be nice, too, before getting started, as I have neither.

Also, heh. Hooray, draws.

[mewbladexxx]

If you want to go with me whenever we both have time, I've got Fortune III. :D

[isi]

I haven't even gone to the nether, except that one time I used someone's tunnel. I'm just resigned to the fact that I'm never getting glowstone or quartz unless I bribe someone

[dread_pirate_mumbles]

I don't have any to donate xD i still havent even been to the nether on the Salad server yet.
also: success! achievement get: better chess skills!

[halcyonlioness]

Yes! Chess! I'm super rusty, but yay! Chess does help a lot when thinking ahead in regards to stories and plots, so knowing how to play that game is a good skill to have as a writer. :3

... Oh, and just having the skill by itself adds +5 to your Diabolical attribute. *amused chuckle*

[nekofan]

Oh boy... It's like showing off something of interest at school all over again because I can't think of a topic!!!

Uhh... so... how about them... things?...Bro. I dunno, how ya'll doin' today cuz I'm doing alright.
This cool guy I know (that I totally do not have a crush on) told me some really sweet things and I couldn't stop squeeing... and I rewatched some funny old vids...

What did all of you guys do today?! :D <3 Love you all~

[scaredykitty]

Had an idea for an adventure map in Minecraft. But I do not understand the MCedit thing, so uh...might take a long time. But I should try at least.

[jack_unicorn]

My school started again, and i love my new class! But I'm feeling pretty good at the moment!

[dread_pirate_mumbles]

I moved into my apartment this weekend, so i've been offline for a couple of days (for anyone interested, pics here--> http://dread-pirate-mumbles.tumblr.com/post/59253174056/my-new-apartment-d )
but im excited about both my apartment and school starting next week, and that i have a week of nothing between now and labor day! (fic writing, anyone? ;D )

[damnreddit]

All the fic!

[halcyonlioness]

*still banging head against "UHC: Foundation, Act 2" in frustration*

I haven't forgotten! The story's just being stubborn in being told at this point, and I have witnesses backing me up on this. The A-Team and I are still chipping away at the story's defenses, though, and I really hope it'll be worth making the rest of you happy salad-eaters wait.

In other news, IRL is RNGing me in the face really hard right now and I think that might be contributing to my current mental kerfluffle. Considering opening commissions (written AND/OR drawn) to supplement the current slowdown in the cut of the income I'm getting from the clan business. Every little bit helps.

Keep us in your thoughts, gang.

I know that feel //bangs head against And A Bottle Of Scotch

*rips out hair because of laptop* I have said many times... my laptop is having issues so I am not doing so fine and dandy. Keeps freezing every 6 minutes, sadly. (Currently using my old one. It's small, slow, and adorable)

I am deleting most things that I don't need on it and I am going to get it fixed(hopefully) later today. I deleted my "Death Games summary doc." Which is really scaring me for some reason (I have it saved in my old laptop and on this website) but it still scares me. If I were to lose that... *dies* :P

Since I really have nothing to do right now since it's Sunday and laptop things... I am thinking of writing and... ya... have nothing to do. Will try writing. Just finished watching F1 race irl which was awesome. Now I am rambling so Bye! Love all of you <3

[dracanea]

Hope it gets fixed alright! <3

BTW, took 3 horses from your area if that's alright? ^^' I want to start a pedigree line of horses for some reason, so I grabbed a few from your place. :p I can let ya have a child of there's maybe? I'm breeding for speed...

[anonymousrose]

<3 Thanks

You took Beef and Pause? That's fine... just don't let them die XD oh. wait. Do you mean from the plains biome? Of course! Anyone can take as many horses from there. I won't be needing any of them. It's perfectly fine. haha want to have the fastest horse, eh? :P Cool

[(Anonymous)]

No, they would be lost in an hour if given to me. XD Though someone found Doc! I just need to find DB now...

Yeah, I want to start my own... how to word it? Pedigree "show" horses? Like, really nice one that will be bred down? I can even sell offspring and give out papers in the form of signed books? IDK... xD

[dracanea]

....
Why did my kindle log me out right before posting that?

[anonymousrose]

Yay! Doc! Now just DB.

That would be really neat! :D I think that's pretty cool

Because... it wanted to? :P I don't know. Sorry for logging out again. Takes 10 seconds to freeze and 10 minutes to turn my laptop on again :(

[dracanea]

Yup! And thank you very much for your support! It means a lot. <3

Lol, yeah my kindle likes to mess with me. And like I said, don't worry. It's not your fault. I would have already thrown it across the room by now. XD

[anonymousrose]

<3 Thank you. Who says I haven't thrown it? XD Really though... I am deleting everything on my laptop and probably killing it more and more. I have just had it. Laptops don't want to get me angry... I can tell you that much. XD

[dracanea]

XD I hope it works out in the end!

[dracanea]

I'm alright, a but stressed due to this year being busy, if I disappear for a few days, blame the FFA. XD I have school work to catch up on, but.... >.< I always thought I'd finish school great as a child and go to collage, but to be a Nursery Worker you only need a high school diploma really, and that's only prefered, not required. IDK, I just have no motivation at all for school right now.... T.T

[squidney87]

I'm oookay. High school is a lot of work. I have so much homework today.. :( I really want to just watch videos and play minecraft but.. Nooo. School has to be in the way. >:( So thats my week. Fun, right?

[kappa77]

Oh boy, I haven't even touched the next chapter of And A Bottle of Scotch even though I know I should because I have no idea if I'll even have time to continue it when school starts for me in two weeks. //sigh

But other than that... hmm... I've been putting off reading my summer reading book because it's not rally that interesting and instead I'm watching Vechs.

[nannyn]

Same here. I'm currently at chapter four of my million-page book, and school is around the corner. Yipeee!

[kappa77]

Haha, what book?

[guiltyshirts]

Just watched Vetches latest Mindcrack were he leaves some potions for Kurt. <3 He really seems to want to be friends and poor Kurt is so shy - I wish I could give him a little nudge, I think they'd actually get on very well.

[theropod]

That was so adorable :D He's so cute!

[guiltyshirts]

Stop being so adorable Vetches plz.

It does make me wonder if either Zistykins mentions Kurt a lot, or Vechs is a bit of a Kurt fan. :P

[mewbladexxx]

Hehehe... I bet Zisteau and Vechs could teach Kurt the lines of Super Hostile. XD

[theropod]

Maybe both? :D

[isi]

Is there anyone Vechs hasn't flirted with at this point? Because I have this headcanon that he's trying to get into the pants of everyone on the server. He's probably made a bingo card and everything.

[wildh10l]

Not doing much myself other than trying catch up on all the stuff I missed out on for the 2 weeks I was gone away. Which turns out to be a lot of videos, fics and just life in general.

Oh and despairing because school starts very soon. Other than that everything's great. :)

[silvercheers]

I'm at college and it's scary! There are a lot of people and I don't have laptop wifi until tomorrow. D: On the plus side, I did an abnormally high amount of socializing and then bonded with people over tumblr. Most of the time I'm just like "wat do?????" and already managed to accidentally set off a door alarm (I'm so sorry people in that dorm). My dorm room is right next to the amphitheater, which is kind of cool and kind of bad because sleep. There are also trees, which is nice and not nice because they block the view but also remind me of home. I'm also like at the highest point of campus, which kind of sucks because the walk back to be dorm is rather arduous.

On a happier, less terrifying note (actually may be just as terrifying, not sure), I've recently gotten into the Night Vale stuff. That podcast is effing brilliant. Also been working on my WIP (only 9 parts left, then editing, and laptop wifi access required before posting). I'll probably post it in 2, maybe 3 parts, and add in Medieval AU's specs at the same time, because they're pretty much the same 'verse. I've also been working on Magic AU, prototyping an important conversation in Nebris' side story. Next step is to work on chapter 1 of the actual story. It may feature a little Arkas, as well as Genny's magic bio.

My apologies for any unintentional typos or autocorrect errors and lack of proper punctuation in this comment, typing on phones is hard.

Edit: also really, really, really excited for OOG! I've watched the first 2 episodes and ohmygod <3.

[kappa77]

Night Vale <3

[cocoaviola]

Doing good! Just got back from vacation and am waiting for inspiration to strike. I figured out that writing while trying to relax can be conflicting in certain ways, so yeah. School starts in a few weeks and I'm like errrrrrr wat do?

I've been playing more minecraft, but I haven't had anyone to play with. ;-; Oh well, need to focus on writing. I have the idea for the ending to A Common Interest but it won't come out on paper. And now that schools almost here. *sighs* I'm much more busy than I thought.

Carry on \o.

[sunsetmondays]

I'm writing a super feels-breaking Nebtho fic, working on another saladcrack, and working on a Portuguese!Beef and Pause fic right now.
I have really itchy mozzie bites all over my legs and feet that are driving me crazy.
Nebris says he's coming back soon. Still not soon enough.

[cocoaviola]

My body is ready for these fics :3
