Fail's and Win's of the day - #2

^ Nice
WIN: Got a new monitor today. It's 24'', up from my current 19''

Well, NEXUS, you have MONEY!

No I got it for free
Fail: Nexus 7 2nd gen was announced today, too expensive for me

FAIL: My laptop got a virus and locked me out yesterday.
WIN: I might get a new one before my birthday. I've been researching them for a while, so I have a pretty good idea of what I'll need.

A new what? Monitor or Nexus 7 2?

FAIL: My laptop got a virus and locked me out yesterday.

Damn :O

Win: I got more WoW game time yesterday

WIN: Little bit over a month till my birthday and my WACOM BAMBOO TABLET! WOOOOO-HOOOOOOOOOOO!

WIN: wisdom teeth were removed.
FAIL: my jaw hurts and I'm scared to eat too much jello.
WIN: I managed to salvage my iTunes Library, VBA-M, and my Pokemon and Touhoumon save files and games. At least my steam games are saved in the cloud.
WIN: finally saw Despicable Me

Fail: I think Nightly is gone forever

R.I.P Nightly. We knew ye well. 

Kheldar get on Skype!!!

GUYS GUESS WHAT!!!

Win(sort of):Been playing quite a bit of minecraft/yu gi oh (yes I do play yu gi oh) / pokemon / legend of Zelda.

Win: just got back from scout camp

Fail: My computer has been blue screening so I can't play minecraft :/


Man I haven't posted here since like 2 months ago...

WIN: I figured out how to make Braid style rewinding in Flash, then made a working prototype (shift to rewind). http://www.fastswf.com/rtprES0

Nice! How did you do it? :O

WIN: My computer is virus-free! Good thing, too. I wasn't going to be able to get a new one until a good while after school started, and that wouldn't have worked well.
WIN: Recovering faster than expected from wisdom teeth surgery.
FAIL: Still can't eat much. It really sucks when I want pizza but can't have it because my gums haven't healed.

Honestly, I can't believe we've kept this place going this long. We lost almost everyone, but we still have our small group that keeps coming back to see what's new. I'll try to be a little more active if I can, but some issues IRL may keep me away from time to time.

Win: Found a reason to play WoW again! (gotta level that DK!)
Win: Long live the alpha heroes!
@Nexus I'll get on Skype later.

WIN: Success! I finally found a working download link of Touhoumon Blue. Touhoumon games are basically pokemon hacks of FireRed (or Emerald in some cases) that replace pokemon with Touhou characters. Blue version is one of the more recognized hacks, but the creator's site shut down. It took me about an hour of searching, but I finally found a working download from the original site on FileCrop.
FAIL: Touhou games (and Touhoumon by extension) are brutally hard. Then again, that's what they're known for.

wait what's touhou? o.o

Whelp, I might as well post an update.

WIN/FAIL: I've been wasting spending most of my summer on a Bleach roleplay... Sigh.

WIN: I volunteered at a botanical garden for two weeks. 92 service hours! Yay!

WIN/FAIL: Tennis season is starting soon.

And that's about it so far.

@blind: Touhou games are a series of arcade-style bullethell games. They're apparently famous in Japan and some areas of the Internet for being some of the hardest games ever made. I heard about them from a friend a while back and decided to try One. I couldn't get past the first boss.

WIN: My youth group is going to a conference in our area. Tonight was the first night, and it was awesome.
FAIL: I can't take the wristband off for three days. Seriously, you have to cut them off to remove them.

Win(?): I'm going to the beach. Yay?

FAIL: Slipped while chasing my brother down a slide and hit it pretty hard. I wasn't hurt very badly since it was plastic, but my neck keeps hurting.

Win: I'm here again :3

Fail: Not in the private group and probely not getting in because I might be a long member who isn't active enough...

Fail: Iphone5 fell in the swimming pool and Apple didn't teach them how to swim!

Win/Fail: Trying to be active again, and really active if I don't keep to forget the site!

WIN: Been laughing at people trying to play Surgeon Simulator. I can see that it's a hard game, but people's reactions are hilarious.
FAIL: Lost my LeafGreen save that I had been working on. On the bright side, that lets me run a game with a recent challenge idea that I had: I can only use pokemon used by Team Rocket and that one scientist guy and my starter. Basically I've got around 10 pokemon to choose from. I may add in something where I can use one non-Rocket pokemon every time I get a badge until the eighth. After the eighth I can use any pokemon I want no matter what.

WIN/FAIL: I'm gonna do a Diamond Nuzlocke. I am prepared for my soul to be crushed.

Diamond is better than firered or leafgreen. Random large level gaps really suck, and I always have issues with Koga and Sabrina.
