It has been a long time since I last blogged. For that I am truly sorry. However, it will most likely be a while before I blog again. I'll explain why later; However, first let me explain why it's been a while for this blog.
I've been busy.Thats it.Oh, you wanted the details.Finals have been keeping me busy for the first part. I've finished all of them however. Sadly I am going for a summer semester. so no break for me. However, I've got a 4.0 so far! Lets hope things keep on that track. I start my summer semester on the 26, so I've got a little bit of a break.Life has been keeping me pretty busy as well. We're putting down some floor in the upstairs (The location of both my room and this computer.) so that kinda throws things off. We should be finished with that soon.In between putting the floor down, I've restored the computer. I bought an external hard, drive backed everything up, and wiped it clean. Runs great and I've pretty much installed all of the needed software back on. (game maker was one of the first.) I think the 2 gb of extra ram I installed might also have something to do with it running better.I only had 512 before, so it was a nice upgrade.So thats about all I've done in that regard.With game maker on the other hand I've done very little. I've finished Rosetta Stone.Get it here:YoYogamesOr Here:Kengine GamingIt's not doing very good in the competition. It currently has 2.7 by three members. Yes, I know it's not instant playable on yoyogames yet, read Sandy's blog and you'll see why.Other than finishing up Rosetta Stone I've done very little in GM. I most likely won't be messing around with it for week or so. I'm taking a sorta breakish thing. I haven't stopped thinking about my future games, I'm just taking a break from the coding part. (And that is why I most likely won't blog again till about another month)So thats why it's been so long since my last blog. Sorry! Perhaps to fill in that previously mentioned gap I can do a blog or so on Linux. (Which I forgot to mention above) I've installed it (Ubuntu) on a broken laptop of ours… But I'll save that for another blog.So long!-Elmernite
Hi! Don't worry, no one can be active ALL the time. :)
A lot of people downrate competition games without playing them on YYG. My entry, Nebraska Newton, had a rating of 2.2 by 4 people before even being played once.
I known it's crazy how bad the down rating is. And yoyogames doesn't seem to be doing anything about it.
-ElmerniteYeah, I know other sites where people can just anonimously (bad spelling I'm Dutch(and lazy)) vote 1's all the time. It's so annoying. Well anyways, Rosetta stone looks amazing and works fine, but I'm not really into playing it. I guess it's not my type of game. Well, at least I'll try to get in the top scores once in a while.
Well, I lost so it doesn't really matter. I didn't even get an honorable mention.
-Elmerniteit was a pretty good word game though.
unfortunately, people on YYG do not like words.Ha Ha!
That's great! Thanks!-Elmernite
