microblogging -.-;
EUO's 5th birthday is on April 3
“5th Birthday” as in - 5 years live. It will be 10 years in August since I started it all …
Spent something like 5-8 hrs making newbie island, because maybe 1 in 10 people who try euo get past the first 5 mins. Is it really that hard? Well newbie island has many obnoxious popups telling you how to attack and whatnot …
killing time, something you shouldn't be doing at 33
2 hrs to kill at COFA - 1 hr and 15 min to go. I’m in the computer lab, and not only forced to use a mac, but furryfox refuses to load. What a travesty.
Checked out the library as suggested by the lovely Cecelia - lots of art books of course but it was all about as appealing as the Chester Hill library, as far as a place to kill time in goes. Many interesting videos and and a few dvds - but you can’t borrow them, and there is only the dingiest room on earth to watch them in. I guess I could bring my laptop in and rip and/or watch them on that.
tumblr's days are numbered ...
now that I figured out that the best bit about it was written by someone else: http://tinymce.moxiecode.com
true democratisation is writing your own goddamn “blog software” (using someone else’s wysiwyg javascript textareas of course)
the NY web2.0 circle jerk can stay on with fucking tumblr and die of old age while they wait for their tags - not me, I’m going to ART SCHOOL tomorrow
since Feb 26th ...
euo
- threat based targeting - ie mobs preferencing their atacks towards the most dangerous players (and pets of course)
- after many years, got CTF automatically running with 4 maps rotating!
- got a prototype automated paypal-integrated in game purchasables system running (not live yet, still thinking about Adamantium Coins)
- return of the scoreboard for reg - improved with top 100 and popup player info
everything else
- webdev as usual, groan
- helping Cecelia with her 4a show (gladly helping even)
- O-week at COFA - art school … bleh
