Hi folks!  I brought coffee!!
 
 
 
Also, because it's Friday, have a donut.
 
 
 
So it's Friday, finally.  What a crazy week it's been.  I haven't gotten to play Wildstar pretty much at all, which isn't much different than usual, but it still kinda sucks.  But we're going to fix that after work today!  In the meantime I've been living vicariously through you all on the forums :)
 
This morning I announced another contest for ThaydFest II:  The Saddle Classic 1000.   No, it's not a golf tournament.  Here's the blurb:
 
Do you love the feel of the open road?  The wind in your hair as you zoom by maruaders, dominion soldiers, and assorted beasties?  The looks of frustration on your competitors faces as you leave them choking on your dust?
 
If you said yes, then saddle up partner and get ready to ride.  The Saddle Classic 1000 is an epic road race sponsored by the Blazing Saddles.  Get out that Grinder or wax that hoverboard 'til it shines, and come out to ThaydFest II to get your race on.
 
 
I think it's gonna be a lot of fun!  If only we could do it on assault bikes, like the ones you use in that shiphand I can not remember the name of.
 
And that, I think, is a good topic of discussion for us to start on today.  I think I'd like to see more adventures, shiphands, and the like (and maybe open-world stuff) in the future that allows us to use vehicle- or mount-mounted weaponry.  The quest in Galeras where I had a rocket attack bike to blow up Murgh was a lot of fun.  What do you all think?  Is this something you'd like to see more of in the game?  Or not really?

Morning all! Happy Friday!
 
I've never been a big fan of mount-based combat, or having to utilize abilities other than those of my character. I don't have an argument for why I think these mechanics are not fun... they just don't appeal to me, so I'm convinced it's a subjective thing. ;)  I wouldn't be against seeing more of it in the game though. So long as I'm not forced into this stuff to progress (i.e., keep it out of dungeons imo).
 
On an unrelated note, last night I was dabbling with my bunker, which I didn't think would be ready for Thaydfest, but now am really intent on finishing before the event begins. So a question for ya, Nephele: About how much time do we have before the judging starts? I know that submissions will be closed soonish, so I'm curious how much time before folks are showing up at mah door. :D

Thaydfest II is going to be awesome!! I love race challenges but I tend to be the person that hits a high point and is like JUMP! woohoo! DOUBLE JUMP!!  :P
 
The shiphand is Rage Logic.
 
Gah...back to work.

Good Morning Everyone!
 
I had the best breakfast - tiramisu and coffee :D
 
I didn't log on last night. Thought I would've had time before bed, but Hubby had other ideas. Like a very nice dinner at Olive Garden after shopping. I love their tiramisu, so bought a couple extra for home :wub:
 
Plan on playing tonight after Hubby's plane leaves. Should be on by 7pm EST. And I will have all weekend with little interruptions (read dog or teenager).
 
It's an early day for me, leaving work at 1pm. I may just pop on for a bit before we leave for the airport. He doesn't have to be there till 4pm, so will have time.
 
I would love to see more mount combat like quests and shiphands. I always have fun running things over LOL.
 
See you all on Nexus! Have a great day :)

*nudge nudge* NDBList Fashion Gala is where I plan to be Saturday night though I'll have to move Heaven and Earth to clear the errand list to attend.  That gets over at 9pm (EST) so should be free for a bit after that.  I'll be in and out Sunday (midday errands) but should settle in late afternoon and evening.

I don't care that it is past noon. Nothing is making me get out of this bed. 
Last night was -32, today is -25. 
Not even mechari have any business being out in that.

			What boots are those on your draken Arachnaas?

Jesus almighty Christ....
 
Where to start.  Well, I was thinking I'd get home early today.  THAT didn't happen.  Instead, I was working right down to the wire on deadlines.  Hit them, but I'm really wiped out.  Still, decided to push through and just get it all done.  So as soon as I got home, I put the new bits in my computer and reformatted.  I'm dealing with the reinstall right now.  And the net has picked this moment to slow way down, so I'm downloading at an abysmal speed.  I should still get it installed within 45 minutes, but that's ridiculous considering what we pay for internet.
 
Maybe, because everyone's home, the cables are jammed up.  Who knows?
 
Hopefully, I'll be able to log in soon.  91%!
