  1. please have one (1) free spooksong

  2. 100% is just a figment of all of our imaginations. It's been real, kiddos.
  3. commander is correct. i will be moving on, however the project will always be open to the community to mod for new content. i'll provide whatever support i reasonably can in that endeavor. also i will not be "leaving" per se. y'all are comin' with me. this place too. it'll still be reborn, just expanding. you think i'd even wait that long?
  4. i don't even have overwatch ;;;; but who knows, whenever i feel like it anyway, i think it is high time to retire this. so long and thanks for all the kicks
  5. i already have, sit downi'll ask more when i have them, or feel like it :c what if a marble is its own center? idk. try three. i am not observant so let's randomly guess three i can remember three in the past few years.... and the world i've forgotten before then doesn't exist so three. i cant even remember what i had for breakfast because i was still in a daze lol. let's just call it three itd be a venusaur because it still has room to grow despite being sizable and significant already. also it's pokemon #3. nah, but i wouldnt be surprised if my toaster killed me in my sleep one day cuz it's broken in like three different ways an accessory... how about a necklace? it's not likely to get lost or damaged, and it's inconspicuous enough. i'd want to entrust myself to a three year old, so i can teach them things and help them grow up and believe they've been chosen for a great fate all along i dont drink anyway... just gotta hold my breath, count to three, and get it over with i'm a pacifist so i wouldn't do that, but if i really had to i could think of three or so people who deserve it.... i won't name names though cuz some might be connected here first, make sure it is safely contained with at least three levels of security. then i'll call the government or sciency people and see if i can sell it for research or something deffo six klefki. they cute. i like klefki, used one for a little bit and im a fan of swagplay cuz i came up and toyed around with the same sort of thing (or at least with 3 out 4 same moves) on prankster liepard back in 5th gen idk probably just a couple slices. i dont like pie that much ummmmm lordy i like too many pokemon to choose... sylveon, gardevoir, alola-ninetales, absol, mawile, lopunny?the fairy prevalence isn't deliberate... i just happen to like a lot of fairies. hellya that is illegalbut fuqq da police i didn't know they were being so forward about it! i'm really looking forward to the big day!! what-- me? give someone stockholm syndrome? i mean, it's only natural that the love of my life should sooner or later realize that i'm the only one they'll ever need. but a conscious move? that's ridiculous. it's just fate. they sometimes need time to cope with their true feelings. a facade like that helps them feel safe while they do. it's okay. we all know the truth dear ashen-black foxflowers bloom below burnt woods stay my rose always siberian huskies are my favorite breed. but shelties are cute. and so are poodles. and yorkies? idk. any's fine. i mean i have two dogs though already though and have for most of my life the only one i've even heard of is jontron so let's go with him, although i don't really watch him myself either i just hear about him from other people
  6. If it were about the elves, sure. That would totally be true. But it's more about anarchy. I don't personally like large systems of control. I'm not going to argue that it's better for people and places to rule themselves... but it's certainly more interesting. So I'd rather both the Altmeri and the Empire fall. The Empire's crumbling regardless, but in the mean time they have the better chance to break the bigger threat.
  7. even though i'm five years late or whatever, i've still just been playing through it for the first time. and i dislike all of this but if and when i have to pick a side i'll probably go imperials because i'm playing an elf who does not particularly want to be around people who hate elves. i dont like the total control thing either but skyrim can fight the empire after the aldmeri dominion is dealt with
  8. would you rather go to a safari or an aquarium? that's a good question, but i think the implication is that i won't have room in that amount of time to do that? but any episode can be as long as it needs, and there is a school of thought that says conflict in writing should be resolved as close to the end as possible. i think one great example of this is in howl's moving castle (the book; movie is very different) where i recall being on like 10 pages left to the end and literally nothing has been solved or makes sense and sure enough in those ten pages, it all came together magnificentlystrongly recommend that book btw. it's really great and the book's witch of the waste is a true marvel and terror. i love the movie too but honestly it's like they only read the first four chapters and took it from there anyway, i have some concerns about the end but it's not so much a matter of not being able to include everything so much as making sure it's done as well as possibleplus i mean there's post game so lol considering malamar's reversal dealie, i dont think its unreasonable. some combination of topsy turby and gravity will be fine. but if it's not suitable for you, you can just change the details of the attack, such as having part of it sabotaged pre-emptively or something else like that i have a large playlist of like 400 songs that i keep on my mp3 player. i uhhh don't think i'll post that whole thing here, and i dont necessarily have like specific favorite-favorite songs... but here, have a few random things.

      I heard that it never will since robots attacked the dev team and took them all out.

      Yesterday. But someone had their PC drivers out of date, which caused a weird spacetime bending and it disappeared from our reality. It happens from time to time, remember Windows 9? Neither do I. The question now is when E17 will be coming out.

      Hey what is the moss that in the chrysolia forest's Hidden meadow is that meaningless or you need it to evolve some of your pokemon such as eevee?

  10. yeah i'm afraid i also don't really understand this question. but past events have not changed significantly. please catch these hands right here: mostly done with alpha testing part 1. part 2 forthcoming after some fixes and other things, and so far it's been difficult to hit all of the sidequest stuff (a lot of it takes some significant time) so i might be counting more on the beta group to spend time on the extras as whole. that does not mean beta is going to be soon though
  11. Negs. As others say there's no way to really measure that. That is correct, it is a tRPG-rhythm hybrid game largely inspired by FE! I don't have an estimate on time frame though, we'll see once I get into it. However, as seems to be true to my style, it's probably going to be a bit longer and meatier than the average FE game. sure thing dude no problem ^ not sarcasm. we're starting now. 99 rounds up to 100.
  12. I don't have any particular plans or ideas for it, but it probably would be a shorter, more personal story with a speaking protagonist and none of the usual gyms or evil team formula. However, I am really tired of working under copyright, so I almost certainly will not be doing anything like that in the future. I was just noting on Psychic. My suggestion is still antiGravity. Admittedly if that's not controlled, everyone in the city would fly up too, so idk, there's some kind of error room. I usually forget that I've written or drawn anything at all tbh but I suppose the Reborn map has certainly gotten good mileage. It's hard for me to say since I've been learning about psychology informally for the better part of my life... actually studying it in school was largely review since I was already familiar with most of the concepts I was taught. But anyway, because it's been an interest for so long, it's sort of inextricable with the way I think and it's hard for me to say how it's influenced it because so many of those things I accept as just like... common sense. However, my experience working at and applying skills learned at my current job has made quite a bit of difference. Since I'm a youth counselor we are trained in various treatment strategies and ways to help maintain control over a population that resents control. That's had a significant impact with how I've approached rules and moderation in the community, and also how I interact with others in terms of being more direct, but taking my personal views out of the equation. I think Kuro just showed up here one winter and offered to help because they're way too cool like that. There was no blackmail or anything-- they actually had to persuade me to let them work on it since I was pretty wary of giving project access to someone who was more or less a stranger at the time.But I'm glad that I did, and that they did. Although I knew what I was getting into, I choose to work where I do because of other conveniences (such as the fact that I don't drive, but this place is only a 7 minute bus ride away). I wasn't thrilled about the population, but I accepted it, and now it doesn't bother me so much.Incidentally, all of my bosses and more-experienced coworkers swear working with girls by contrast, is hell. Boys are much easier, they always say. Most of them have drug charges, but they are frequently there only after multiple offenses and years of commitment. I've only seen a couple who there only because of drugs-- and it was never just marijuana. I recall one such boy who had done heroin as early as 10. But it's definitely not comfortable. I wouldn't last in this job if I were day staff, but they sleep at night, so I don't mind. Though I will say, the first night I worked alone I was so sure I was gonna get gangbanged, I was about ready to fight for my life. Fortunately, nothing of the sort has ever happened (and the one time staff was attacked, another client saved his life.) I just have to play a game or something with it, like hangman-- but perhaps a bit more subtlely, if it catches on, like where the clues are colors it is not. What kind of game would probably depend on what the giraffe was willing to do though...
  13. So The Cellist is the literal best and composed a terrain tag fix that removed a significant portion of events from the puzzle. With that, it's playable. Still lags on weaker computers, especially on one part, but it's bearable, and even testing it through lag, that one part (which is a lot more fun than it is difficult tbh) is still passably enjoyable. Meanwhile in the story department shit = done or all of the story content through the gym battle is, anyway. also just based on potential maximum relationship values, this episode's leader can end up liking the player way too much ;;; anyway i still have loose ends to tie up, stuff like TV dialogues for this episode and whatnot so that's tomorrow

  14. Negs, though I am already working on a different project to develop after Reborn. I think a prequel would be more likely, but I'll let some things in E16 speak to that. This is probably a better question for Jan because I am a Bad Friend™ who has only barely played past the first badge in Rejuvenation :s idk how i do anything it just kind of happens A SAFARI! ...i said, never. Psychic could still throw them upwards back at Team Meteor lol. Or just (anti) gravity for the same effect! I really actually wouldnt kill my friends just to finish E16 ;;; 'sides, being trapped with my friends is hardly a bad thing. Further, and not that I mean to undermine your premise though, but I think it's a little difficult to create a chain reaction of specific events when literally all all of them have to do to survive is just... not talk at all. So presuming the chain reaction is possible is assuming that there is some sequence of events that could make all of them talk at all if they're resolved not to. And while I imagine Kuro might deliberately waver for reasons of their own, I'm not going to insult them by supposing they have so little self control. I don't see a case to not pick B. Although I'm sort of inclined to A, that's just lazy. Some thought needs to go into it. If I'm wrong then I just have to learn to forgive myself later. Usually just ketchup. Occasionally garlic or onions though. Raspberry! Golly. Something that can fly is tempting but I'm not a huge fan of birds aside from flight. Playing godly messenger as a fox could be fun. But people might be afraid of me. So maybe just a cat. And then people can pet me. Worth. eehh.. none.. john lennon i guess? Regular I completely forgot Parcheesi existed but I remember liking it as a kid, so let's go with that. Edit cuz I apparently missed this: Probably not naturally, but I intend to close it a little bit before E16 beta. They're okay. They were cuter in avatar. Idk i dont have strong feelings about them
  15. Thank you! It's fanart of Star Guardian Jinx in League of Legends. According to my stray link the artist is... songjikyo?? --- so remember that puzzle that i trimmed a lot yeah so it's actually still super laggy now that i've tested it on my weaker computer. so i'm kind of pulling back to the drawing board with how that one is implemented and we'll see what we can do with it in the end. it's probably gonna eat a bit more time though lol rip story events are super almost done and im starting stress out about making sure i get everything perfect in time for testing which is challenging because my memory is about as stable as jello but we're going places!! slowly! i was gonna say more but my job's about to kick me out though now so lolbye
  16. absolutely not but don't worry, i don't intend to stop making games any time in the foreseeable future. will probably shoot for a few weeks at least, but it depends on how it goes. regarding the mega ring, when i posted that screen before the pocket it was going in was just an oversight on my part. that's been fixed. and it was really not meant to be a troll tease or anything. However, I'm just going to axe it pre-emptively. It actually has nothing to do with the "too strong to have yet" side of things, and strictly the story side. After getting a little further in to the story the timing for the event itself doesn't feel right, so I'm going to hold off on it until later. Fortunately, that's all ready in advance for the future though, so I can flip the switch whenever the timing works out. As an apology, take this. and now i'm going to be late for work bye
  17. I am so proud of you. This is fun. Unfortunately, it's not easy when I'm not the one setting it up. As fun as much fun as my usual persona would have with this, I'd have to pretend like I wouldn't play that game. In order to get the others to let their guard down, I'll say I'd let the others kill me. And when they argue over if they should or not, then I'll make a move Because there's really no need for three to die by my hand when I can make them kill each other. To save just myself I can frame Tania for Charlotte's death, making Saphira fly into a rage. Loser dies and I kill Amy for the win. After all, I'm a pacifist...but only when it suits me. It's a boost. That should be specified in the manual. It used to have a different effect but it was so binary I removed it. Keeping in mind that I historically don't feel those kinds of things at all... Hard to say. Since I'm only just learning to feel some of those things again, I'm also only just learning to deal with them. Some things that I've found calm me down or refocus me include spriting, typing (even if it's just nonsense), playing music, doing a quick sudoku, or meditating. A lot of series I enjoy are manga sources... I think it's a pity when shows get ahead or deviate and lose the original plot just because of production schedules (looking at you, Pandora Hearts).. Since I haven't read much manga, I don't really have a basis for comparison as for when it's bad or not but I'm sure in most cases the manga is better. Even so, if the anime draws in more fans to the series, it's probably okay anyway.would be really nice if the animations would finish though... coughrozenmaidencoughbtoomcoughdeadmanwonderland idk. i don't really want that power. i don't see any good coming of it. I might just choose ten random people who seem interesting but who I know little about. That way I don't risk anything like existing friendships, and I would probably learn a lot of different perspectives intimately. Ideally they wouldn't know if I chose them or was reading their mind, so that the process of observation doesn't alter the data. Just as a general thought experiment though, the thing I'd be most curious to discover is, if knowing every thought they had would make me like them more or less. Or to what extent it would vary from person to person. The people I select would probably be chosen in order to best answer this question. But I don't have specific names for that purpose right now. I think we really oughta clear up first if BPD stands for BiPolar Disorder or Borderline Personality Disorder. cuz it's used for both, and they are pretty different. In reference to Borderline: I struggle with it due to past relationships with such individuals that became really unhealthy for me. Although I'm much better suited to handle those kinds of challenges now, I'd.. really just rather not.A certain phrase my dad told me when I was very young, about borderline individuals sort of sticks with me to this day and mars my perception of them. I was going to say it here, but on second thought, I'd rather not further that idea. In reference to Bipolar: This one hits a little closer to home for me because when I was younger my family thought I was bipolar. And while I am not, the manic-depression paradigm resonates pretty strongly with me because I frequently do have those really polar moods. It's just, my moods lack the permanence that are necessary to characterize the disorder, and since I am no longer suicidal or anything like that, I see no reason to look into it further. In either case I prefer a focus on Trauma-centric/Cognitive Behavior Therapy. Although the combination of medication and therapy is usually most effective, I am not qualified to recommend any such medicine, nor would I particularly want to, because I personally believe those medications are a bandaid solution that try and stop the bleeding without actually suturing the wound, and can have enduring negative effects in addition. idk dude i can never get my head around java/js but i bet dan would be happy to help you :] Probably not, but I can remember the key points. Politoed, Drizzle, Leftovers, Protect/Perish Song/Scald/Toxic Vaporeon, Hydration, Leftovers, Acid Armor/Rest/Scald/Baton Pass Kingdra, Swift Swim, Leftovers, Substitute/Dragon Dance/Waterfall/Outrage Whimsicott, Prankster, Leftovers, Encore/Leech Seed/Substitute/Hurricane Espeon, Magic Bounce, Leftovers, Calm Mind/Psyshock/Hidden Power Fighting/Wish Sharpedo, Speed Boost, Life Orb, Aqua Jet/Earthquake/Crunch/Ice Fangsuch a fun team to use. i love my encore semi-stalls.
  18. laid out all of the episode's battles today and started story events for the main area and stayed up way too late and hit the halfway point i want to stay up forever and keep working on this but that is probably not a good idea good night

      Wonderful! Love the theme already, It's the same theme as before but it's not depressing anymore: now it's full of joy and hope. Great job, Ame!

  20. ahhahaha wow i totally forgot about white obsidia i guess i'll do that soon those are current max/mins or rather max/mins up to the end of 15 when playing on E16 --- regarding alpha/beta testing, i am going to have more than one alpha tester this time because those who have played the betas can probably attest to the fact that one doesn't seem to be quite enough. and, because there's so much in this update that has changed or been added (or is just generally fucky like the city update) I intend to leave it in beta for a longer period of time than usual. so heads up with that. E16 area is evented and the puzzle is done. it's... i originally felt iffy about the puzzle but then i took like pieces of three different things and smashed them all together and now it's cool. actually. i'm pretty sad because i ended up having to trim a lot out of it in order to solve for lag :c the game seems to start lagging at around 200 event tiles per map, and i got like halfway through the puzzle in one of the rooms, realized i was coming up on 300 tiles and was just like 'well shit.' so i had to scale back and i'm disappointed about that. it also cost me a bit of time for having to tweak it so much. but ultimately, the core parts of what it was are still in tact, and it's not like it'll be boring. it might still lag a little on lower end computers though... it shouldnt be too bad. I'm pretty sure I have everything under 200 at least now for the fun part.
  21. Gosh, there were a lot of things I enjoyed about it. I think if I had to say one singular thing though, what I enjoyed the most was seeing how players worked with each other, from helping each other train different strategies, to trying to investigate things about the characters, even to just how whenever there was a league battle there would be a half dozen other challengers at the least watching, cheering either side on. And fortunately, despite it having been years since then, I don't miss that at all. Cuz that's exactly what you guys do with the game all the time. ^^ Good question. My special ability lets me not feel anything most of the time unless I really remember to try to. so lol.75% literally nothing at all; 4% actual relaxed contentedness, 8% hyperexcitement mania, 10% that vague lonely cuddly feeling, and 9% the oppressively crushing sense that literally everything i do or enjoy doing has no meaning to it whatsoever and my function in this world has no significant purpose or effect beyond shallow gratification delayed or otherwise(not that i actually believe that) I have no respect for the narcissistic kind of attitude. Ah... someone like that should just.. be brought down a notch, right? ^~^I really do not want to go there myself but then sometimes I do things like have a 12 page AMA, so... you know... I really can't imagine how it could possibly go wrong~ Aren't they like super expensive? I can't imagine they wouldn't be. Headset. There's no way I can't answer this considering how regularly I wear my cat ear headphones among earbuds, ploppies. cuz the cushy ones like barely stay put Cat ear ones are around the whole ear, so that. Plus it's like ear muffs during the winter! best. ear muffs. ever. they are ok. i actually associate them with an ex of mine, cuz sugar gliders were her spirit animal. very cute but probably not ideal for me to have or anything. much like her, apparently. let's go see the stars, yukki-kun!!its ok. i asked for it this time. uh. this is in no particular order (though the first six are like, 95% of what i do)working on my games league with my friends binge watching anime other vidya gaem spriting even if i'm not working on it at the time, just thinking about and figuring stuff out for what to do on my games in the future music stuff (practicing or putting stuff together-- though i wish my gadblamed launch pad would work qAq) hosting live event games (stuff like nonary or even the reborn league, king's game/mafia/etc IRL) drawing staying up and talking to people in the afternight. especially with new people, i think the best conversations always happen after midnight. Usually my hands and feet first, yeah. RIP circulation. unless it's when i just wake up, in which case the entire world is made of ice. I have not, and I have no particular interest in it based on what I know. Overnight one! I have fond memories of train rides, and if it's gonna be an experience, go big or go home! Anything? Hmm... Hook me up with dual-wielding bladed SMGs on infinite ammo. And lace their shots with electrified brimstone.sound familiar to anyone? Yes. Frankly, most gifts do. Though in particular, I find I keep being especially off guard with those gifts that I feel like are meant to obligate me to someone else's favor. I really don't know how to respond to those, and it tends not to be pretty when I do. probably....??? in recent memory yes but it was only a small thing for someone who thought I hated her. there's probably other stuff I've forgotten though. not really. maybe the tight squareish ones?? but i really havent paid close attention to the meganes is a blizzard a natural disaster? it shouldn't be, cuz it's flippin' awesome i think epidemics count as natural disasters too? double checking, it is on the wiki page for them so i assume so. gross. despair consumes all.nah. probably something dumb that humans did. like a private library? gosh, idk. maybe based on their utility or when i would need them wireless I like the carpet I have in my room. it's black and cool eh. they're a pain to vacuum. usually not that pretty. pets eat them. bruh i dont even have a car typed. i have trust issues with emoticons. that depends on the intent. :] is sarcastic and memey. : ) is impending doom. the only notebooks i use anymore are like sketchbooks or personal journal kinda stuff and i'd rather those be plain and simple to not attract attention TV cuz radio's closer to being obsolete, and there's a lot more you can do with it. not anymore, but I used to listen to it regularly up until sometime in high school I probably don't since my music taste has changed so much since I stopped listening. I don't have a preference. I do like the lamp that I have though since I can direct the light right against the wall and so it's pretty dark in my room even when the light is on. No, but I have a full playlist (and by that I mean the bulk of my music collection) for that.However, I have started to collect a small set of songs that i've noticed are particularly good for me to work too. Like I can listen to these kinds of things on repeat forever while getting shit done. Being more curious about other people is a skill I need to work on. So presently, even assuming it didn't annoy them, I don't think there is. I can only recall ever going to the zoo in this city. Even though it's boring, the zoo. cuz like... See, if I took a safari, right? I'd just be worried about bugs getting on me the entire time ;;; I have not but I really love the ocean so I'd be willing to try it. However it's not a particular desire. I can't :c Yeah, though I didn't actually learn how until I was like, 12.. ehhhhh. no style points. but i guess it'd be safer? probably the bloody toaster for all the abuse i've put it through. i'll choose microwave-chan to defend me. they have a violent history together. i think airplanes would have the most unique perspective. uhh... literally. i imagine it'd sound like someone who's trying way too hard to be edgy, and is also way too close to his microphone. a cat. dogs couldnt hold a solid thought. dear lord send help. the aquarium. again, cuz of the bug thing. if they have vibrant designs or animal years, hellya. pass on the sweaters. i prefer light and tight-fitting clothing. short sleeve nope rasperry juice, no quesstions. please please please and thanks. i really really really don't like most bugs. yes, actually! many years ago. i don't remember it whatsoever but i do remember having read it. jazzy she is underage p l e a s e
  22. probably... "would you rather go to a safari or an aquarium" Because there were no legends in the league, and the game was made to mirror that. The original goal was for the difficulty to mirror that of playing VS humans (specifically, the gym leaders from the online league). This far into it, I don't think the experience is really comparable nor can it ever be. So I'm just continuing on to make something that is more challenging than the main series.I do keep a certain guideline in mind, which existed even at my recommendation with the old leaders. With these battles, my goal is to have the player lose twice, and win on the third time. The player has to see what they're up against, and then do something different, and maybe it still doesnt work and they have to plan a little better, and then they win on the third time. I think this makes a satisfying victory without being too frustrating. cats are still superior so whatever I try not to put much stock into it regardless. of course, I appreciate all of you, but the last thing I want to do is let any of it go to my head. that doesn't matter. what matters, darling, is that you've put yourself square in the line of fire for my incessant JinXLux shipping. i am not familiar with either of those first two things, sorry when i want to be... we already do and have done most of what we can. since the engine itself is pretty clunky, there's not much else we can do. city idk he probably deserved it not particularly, but i don't mind. boats can be fun. it's not good, it's not bad, it's just.. nice.and i'm not good, i'm not nice, i'm just right. there's no reason for that. And I understand that when it happens, parents aren't being reasonable. it's anger/frustration and there's a lack of logic there. however, it's important for parents to serve as role models for their children, which means not losing one's temper. otherwise by demonstrating that yelling is an effective way to enforce control or make a point, the child will learn to do so as well. it's a fast route to a negative spiral.
  23. Assuming it's ZEL so it can't be anyone else? Is that the fragile hope you cling to? My tumblr is amethystblack.tumblr.com As for creating a Hell... Ah, I'm looking forward to that.
