^_^ *squee* Okay, admittedly, no one has gotten back to me about WDKY17 yet even though I posted the full version of it in TWO parts (stupid Semagic posting-limit) up at
betasquad. I'm hoping it's not such an eyesore that people click away before they comment and critique, because this is one of those chapters that I need help on. We're halfway through the story, people!
On top of that, I've had to deal with more schmucks joining BEA and not reading the rules. I mean people will type in whatever the heck they want in the URL field, even if it's complete BS-- spaces, commas, misspelled words (ture?) ... the whole nine yards. Two people joined with "seto and tea ture love.com" which obviously doesn't exist, as does NOT "seto and tea love.com" Er, sorry, no. So I updated BEA with some new rules on the Join and front page. I still don't know why the image Mamono made for me is NOT showing up on the index page though... and I have yet to fix the Members page. ^^;
As for reviews for the whole boatload of oneshots I posted a while back, I'm pleased to announce I have a new fan who actually likes the whole lengthy-review concrit thing! This pleases me to no end. Welcome, silent sinner, to the fold! But with a sky, there always comes clouds-- this one is named "Lily," and she likes to tell me to continue on all my oneshots, she forgets the name of the card (Kaibaman) that I clearly mentioned SEVERAL times in "It's All Your Fault," and... yeah. Plus more minors (ahem!) reading "The Joke's On You" and NOT GETTING THE JOKE. Look people, if you don't get the joke in TJOY, your mind is simply not dirty enough to be reading the story. I don't like explaining all my innuendos, so... yeah, just back off! Slowly... that way I won't get in trouble. ^_^ mkthx. (Oh, and someone just reviewed WDKY and said I have a question. Why do you use a Ashezue's Japanes name when you use the American names for everyone else? I want to burst out laughing. First off darling, it's "Ishizu" and second off, it's BAD DUBBING. It's not a Japanese name, it's Egyptian, and I refuse to spell it the dub way because THEY ARE WRONG. Her name is Isis, and that is IT. If I changed everyone else's names now, it'd be the biggest pain in the butt since hemmoroids.)
I still haven't heard from Dave of PSX-Tech.com -_- Okay, I know my email account is a bit picky with what is considered Bulk/Junk, but all his other emails have (eventually) gotten through to me... so what's with the wait this time? It's been nearly four months since I placed my order, but I told him I was okay with waiting till he was sure he had a perfectly good working chip... but sheesh, with all this waiting, can't he at least get back to me, tell me when he'll ship it, and maybe waive the stupid $5 shipping and handling because I've been so patient? I'm worried it won't even be worth it anymore, because every time I play FFIX on my PS2, the fan is always BUZZING. Oh, and YAY! I finally got past Gizamaluke! @_@ I don't know how I didn't before, but TEH YAY! I just run away from every battle with the Lumias creature, though.
Hm, but in Burmecia, there's this walkway that falls when I try to cross it. There's a treasure chest with some decent boots in it (supposedly) on the other side, but try as I might, there doesn't seem to be any way to access it. I've read walkthroughs and tips, but all of them are so vague I don't know what to do. Any ideas?
I also had this fabulous idea which will probably end up sucking up what little of my brain juice is left. But I was thinking, since there are so many Yu-Gi-Oh icontest communities out there, why don't we centralize and have one place that keeps track of all the new icontests, deadlines, submission/voting pages, and who's doing banners/new challenges? I know it sounds daunting, but what it would really be is an "updates" community, with a bunch of links in every entry so people could keep up with their icontest communities. I speak from experience that having a filter on your friends list doesn't always help. I wanted to ask people here first, see if it's a good idea, and then maybe I can pitch it to the other Yu-Gi-Oh icontest mods.
In other news-- successful burns of Inuyasha (almost done with it so I can give it back to Roro when I go to SF) and I finally got 18-20 of PGSM... still waiting on 21-25, and then 26-49 is like, 92.6% done! YAY!
Yesterday at work-- finally, direct deposit has started going through... but since my hours have been cut, the paychecks are lousy. Since Brenda, the GM that hired me, has gone to work at a franchise location, "A" is now in charge... which totally doesn't please me, but there's nothing I can do about it but get along. They also are a week late with tips... so they might just end up combining LAST week's tips with this upcoming week's tips on Wednesday. Hopefully that'll put a decent amount in my pocket. ^^;
I close tonight and tomorrow, and on Sunday, I'm there from 9:30am-3:00pm... ah, another morning with very little sleep. Well, I don't mind too much. If I get at least 6 hours and a good breakfast, it's okay. But at 9:00am, Western Bagel is going to be PACKED. *wails* I wish I had priority ordering there or something. ;_;
