does anyone else secretly have that “i liked it before it was cool” complex but wont admit it

it’s more along the lines of “you guys were fucking making fun of me for liking this before it was cool” kinda complex

Also a “I super excitedly tried to show this to you years ago and you brushed it off and now you think you introduced it to me and that is infuriating” kinda complex

There are time slots with openings that would probably love having people fill the empty spots! The game works better with the max number of people so you’d be helping each other out!

With the rom downloaded, I’m gonna sorta cause y’all to see me go in blind into 999. 

I’m gonna tag it as ‘fumbling through’ the whole way through this game. So. Black list that if you don’t wanna see me play poorly.

I hope you’re planning on buying a copy of the game either on DS or iOS after you finish... (it’s easily available on Amazon, GameStop, and the Aksys webstore if you’re in the US) Always support the games you enjoy.

Confession: I have a friend who likes to text me at like 4am when he’s had nightmares or he can’t sleep or he just needs a friend. He thinks I’m always awake at 4am but really I go to bed around 12am and I change his text-tone to the loudest one I have just so it wakes me up when he needs me.

you’re the kind of friend everyone needs

I think that since its been a year since I made this post its time for an update. In the past year I’ve watched this post grow and grow, people I work with have told me about it as “this post I saw the other day” and they have no idea it’s my post. The person I wrote this about has even reblogged it. He is no longer texting me at 4am. Not because we no longer speak but because the nightmares have stopped. He and I both are in a much better place. Most often the only times he’s waking me up at 4am is when he’s pulling me closer to him while we sleep. He’s more than a friend now and I’m forever thankful to have him. Everyone messaged me saying he was lucky to have me but I think I was just as lucky to have him and I would do it all over.

this is the kind of SHIT I LIVE FOR

Someone unscramble the zero time dilemma anagram on the wall! It reads “The end where I treat two.” and I’m absolute garbage with anagrams!!

You’re missing part of the anagram so you should probably wait! It’ll get explained in the game anyway, so no need to try to spoil yourself.

(I work at Aksys, and actually wrote the anagram)

So ever since I got my VLR bracelet, it’s had these scratches on the surface that I wish I could get rid off. Does anyone know how I could make those go away? The “crystal” is actually plastic, if that helps

And also, I was about to change the battery for a new one but how could I take it out of its socket? I tried pushing the sprint a little, but it still doesn’t have enough room to get out. 

Any help is appreciated, thank you!

I don’t know if this’ll help at all, but did you remove the thin plastic that covers the watch face? A lot of people missed that you had to take that off. Other than that, I’m afraid I’m not much help.

what if the reason carlos didn’t talk in the trailer is because they wanted to preserve the twist that he has a cockney accent and is the person G-OLM was modeled after

He actually did talk (he says “Bracelet?”), but that’s a fun theory haha.

Remember the words on the 4infinity site that had the counter ultimately leading up to the announcement of ZTD? Those are already starting to be relevant!

The words were: ice cream, coin (scrolling left), firefighter (scrolling right), shotgun, ring, salt (removed) and Gab.

And the removed images that had five words each: dream, PENCIL, HOPE, EYES, TEAM and speak, BLACK, salt, Novel, OPEN.

Ice cream (Eric works at an ice cream store), firefighter (Carlos is a firefighter), Gab (name of the dog) and TEAM have been relevant thus far. The source contains more clues that have been tossed about prior to the announcement, so check it out!

The removed words are only test words, and have no relevance at all. So you can ignore them. (I work at Aksys; and if you don’t want to take my word for it, feel free to contact Aksys for confirmation) There ARE more words than the ones you listed too.

Remember back when the countdown ended and they said we shouldn’t pay attention to the words since they were just random and to garner attention, and had nothing to do with the game?

Aksys and Uchikoshi are LIARS.

Gab is the dog, Eric is an ice cream salesman, Carlos is a firefighter, CQD is the name of the three teams. Shift is most likely a reference to switching between the teams or timeline jumps. Psychopath is pretty self explanatory. 

That leaves coin, shotgun, ring, portrait and 1/216 since the coordinates and 50m was about where and when ZE3 was revealed. I’m pretty sure that in the end all these words will end up playing a part in the story too.

It wasn’t a lie. We were referring to the test words that everyone thought were important (salt, dream, etc). We never said the final words weren’t important; why would we share them if they weren’t?

50m is not about where/when ZE3 was revealed, btw. Just the coordinates and “cut-here” were.

I found it from website image. I like that background but I think that photoshop is bad…Okay. 

so I post it whatever

Just an fyi, but you have the wrong color image. The official one is more of a brown instead of green. I don’t know if you want to change it or not, but if you want it to look correct, then you might want to find the correct one. Just thought you should know.

Thought it might be interesting to show how my Mos Eisley piece breaks down in Photoshop!  Despite technically being made up of a ton of layers (just for organization and ease of selection), the final piece breaks down into about five parts: inks, flats, shadows, bounce/atmosphere, and overlay.

  1. Sketch I actually blocked out a small scene in Maya to help me compose this shot – Mos Eisley has a lot of domes and ellipses and, as much as I adore drawing in perspective, it definitely helped having a basic maquette for placing the camera.  We had to get the sketch approved by Lucasfilm, so I did a quick value pass to hint at the time of day.
  2. Final Sketch This is where I’m finalizing the composition before inking.  This meant fine-tuning figure placement, environment details, and any text I had written on the walls.  Luke was almost entirely central in the initial sketch, so I shifted him to the left to let the piece breathe a little more.
  3. Inks The first stage of the final piece, and probably my favourite – I can just turn off my brain, zone out, and ink.  Since Star Wars is a notoriously “used” universe, I went for a bit of Geof Darrow vibe and let the inks do a lot of the texture work for me.  The inking is actually done over some twelve-odd layers (sandtrooper, Luke, foreground moisture vaporator, etc), but that was just to organize my file and facilitate expedient flatting later on.  The final inks are a dark green-blue, with a bit of variation in the distance to reinforce the atmospheric perspective.
  4. Flats This aaaalways takes longer than I expect.  This stage changes depending on my process, but I went with pretty basic local colors this time around.  Nothing fancy.
  5. Shadows (multiply layer) The shadows are all on 1-2 multiply layers, pretty basic.  This was a deceptively simple lighting setup, so I wanted to make sure any edges that were catching light read really clearly.  I added the warm rim of subsurface scattering to break up the edges a bit.
  6. Bounce Light and Atmospheric Perspective (screen layers) A couple separate layers, but they serve similar purposes.  This stage added bounce light from the sky and sand, as well as layers of atmospheric perspective to separate out the foreground, midground and background.
  7. Final (overlay layers) The final piece!  I used a subtle overlay layer to marry the colors, as well as some film grain and light watercolor texture to break up the swaths of flat digital color.

So that’s my jam!  I’m changing up and improving my process constantly, but this is definitely one way to get things done. :)

My skin doesn’t tan easily, it only turns red… and when I do become tanned, it hurts… doesn’t it hurt for you, Haru-chan? Haruka: No… I never really gave it any thought… Nagisa: Aww no fair~! Oh, that’s right! If I keep swimming on and on, just like you, will I get a beautiful tan like yours? Haruka: Do you swim just to get a tan? Nagisa: Ahaha, well, that’s not all, but… Makoto: C'mon you two, hurry up! Rei: Gou-chan is waiting with a key and getting quite mad! Nagisa: Oop, sorry, sorry! We’re coming! Haru-chan, hurry, hurry! Haruka: Yeah… Makoto: We’re locking up now! Nagisa: Wait for us! Haruka: Nagisa… you’re fine just the way you are. Nagisa: Huh? Did you say something? Haruka: No… it’s nothing. Nagisa: You’re so weird! Hey, Haru-chan! Let’s swim heaps this summer! Haruka: Yeah… let’s do that.
