  • Um okay I want to write a message on Ignition but don't know if I'll necro. Should I just watch?

    That would probably be best; thank you for asking. I don't really want to draw attention to that thread when my muse would much prefer to work on INW. ^^;

    I'm glad you apparently enjoyed it!

    Thanks for messaging back.
    Last and most important final tomorrow. Meanwhile, during today's final...
    Mmmm, kinda wanna play some Slay the Spire after the semester is done and quest updates are out of the way.
    *Act 4 Boss Theme, heartbeat included, is subsequently stuck in head for entire rest of exam*
    ...I'll allow it.
    ...Huh. It's been a few months since my headphones broke, and I just noticed that my writing rate dropped off at around the same time. I think music might've helped more than I realized. Oops? ^^;

    Need any recommendations for decent in-ear headphones?

    Have you managed to find any new headphones? If you want to give me our address I could have a pair shiped to you. Or not Amazon only ships to human dimensions.

    Ah, sorry about the delay! I have some new headphones now, yeah. I just need to remember to actually listen to music now. Thanks anyway!
    Probably won't update this weekend — the current situation in Syria is literally mind-numbingly horrifying.
    The three-body problem gets significantly worse if you try burning the bodies. 0/10 do not recommend, ash is infuriating to count
    Another day, another visible consequence of SB's staff twiddling their thumbs when it comes to the removal of Actual (Neo-)Nazis.
    Bus driver was listening to a 9/11 conspiracy theorist on the radio this morning. I can put up with the usual Fox News propaganda, but really?
    I have looked upon my quests and realized how incredibly irresponsible I was when it came to making so many. @BurnNote was right to doubt me. w.w Sorry, all.

    Now I feel bad :(. That's one case where I don't want to be proven right.

    Don't feel bad! Pointing it out birthed the snippet thread, which is working much better when it comes to spaying and neutering runaway plot bunnies. I've just come to the conclusion that updating them in surges every year or so isn't really fair to those who were interested in them even if they weren't slowing Frag/Ignition. ^^;

    For now and likely for a while, I'm focusing on Fragmentation and Ignition. I should have the next posts for one or both done this week.

    EDIT: Finally got around to updating my signature.
    Currently fueled by spite, rage, annnnnd the desire to file a detailed ethics (and competence) complaint against one of professors.
    This week in bad ideas that I'm trying to ignore: Konosuba QAqua. Honestly, QA would probably be an improvement. In Aqua's defense, though, she was virtually kidnapped.
    Are you a space whale?

    Don't be ridiculous. I have a perfectly human heart, a normal human mouth, a normal human brain, three perfectly ordinary human eyes, the standard number of human limbs, two human ears, and all other standardized human organs not included in this list. Those who question my humanness should be investigated themselves.

    I AM HOOMAN! YES You are also HOOMAN! No investigate needed!
    <.<

    You are not space whale! No need to investigate. We all have proper number of eyes and claws!
    Zoidber- HOOMAN scuttle!

    I not be drunk on rum and post above affirmation of hoomaninity as a report! That not be a thing that happened!
    You know traffic is bad when a moth is able to overtake your vehicle—and the next car, and the next, and... and I forgot my ADHD meds today, didn't I? Oops.
    Slight schedule slip (from the 1k words/day quota I recently implemented) due to the SpaceBattles bigotry clusterbuck acting as a major distraction, but I'm still on track to have the next Ignition post ready tomorrow.

    Been doing farm work all day and haven't yet had a chance to write, so we might end up with it going to betas before releasing instead of releasing today.

    Any more updates since this? I can't really provide more discussion in the thread because I am the last post.

    I'm working on the next update, fret not. I think I'll have it done on Friday or Saturday.
    Right now they are making AI's that write books (not very well, but you can see the signs of clear improvement). Which got me thinking. How long until AI's can host quests? How you like handing our the QM work to any AI? It could write the updates for all the votes we didn't choose.

    I expect that would be a full-fledged sapient intelligence (or close to imitating it) by that point. Also, it really is going to be a while — they're really, truly awful at writing. It'd be neat in the same way as full-immersion VR: fun, but not something we'll reach for a long time.
    Status update: Next Fragmentation post is mostly done. Got stuck with Ignition, but Chandra's Triumph is encouraging me to work on it again.
    At this point, I'm just going to acknowledge that I won't be truly active until the 28th, when this pesky accelerated class ends.
    Status update: the one 6-week summer class I'm taking has proven to be more irritating than expected. I'll update SOMETHING this evening.
