Since I'm probably going to get clothes and such for christmas, and since I had about 200 bucks on paypal, I went to town.

Didn't really want to name it earlier because it makes Ziggy's present look kinda cheap

And I still have like 50 bucks or so left

I love Steam sales

Yeah, me naming the gifts I got myself kinda ruined the Christmas spirit we had going on, huh .__.

Pff. I know basically everything I'm getting for Christmas AND my brand new Hornby Gordon is sat on a table in my bedroom, unwrapped and everything. It is quite sexy.

I read Horny Gordon........

I once typed "horny duck" into eBay by mistake. That was fun.

Duck is a Thomas character.

Haha what? That's creepy, I can't really fathom train sex. Well... probably oral train sex.
ANYWAY YES
Charles rocks.

You're very welcome.

Okay, so which is grosser/creepier:
Fallout 3 and 4 centaurs

Spoiler:

OR
Dead Space Lurkers?

Spoiler:

I think it is the centaurs, because they move so creepily and wave their tongues all nastily. Although Lurkers are babies with tentacles, mega creepy.

The centaurs have more of that "I'm going to rub these tounges all over your smooth, soft, supple skin" vibe while the lurkers have more of that "MURDERMURDERMURDERMURDERMURDER" vibe.

Tough call, but I'm going with the centaurs too.

Wait, Fallout 4?

Well if you want to get technical, she means Fallout: New Vegas. Sort of like how Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, isn't Grand Theft Auto IV.

Sort of like how Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood should be Assassin's Creed III.

I am so confused and uncomfortable right now.

Me playing an FPS game in a nutshell.

Oh by mistake, I'm sure.

I'm going to do a random match search party tommorow IN TF2. Anybody want ot join? Can't give an exact time yet, but those of you who are interested be on tomorrow afternoon(or morning, at least for me and some others).

In what game?

Oh, derp. TF2. They have a new group search funciton.

I'm in!

Just got home, I've been out all day.
I'll set it up ASAP, but I'm not exspecting there to be many people.
EDIT: Nevermind, I'll try tommorow when there should be more people advailable.

Thanks for the gift Sar, you're the bomb.
So many games now!

So I managed to get Minecraft working on my computer well enough.

I played for a while, then various mishaps began to befall me, namely I lost pretty much everything I had on me when an Enderman somehow got into my house and promptly somehow led to my death even after I killed it.
Various mishaps after that ensued, but eventually I managed to scrounge back up to stability and smelted myself some iron bars after busting my ass looking for iron ore. In the morning after doing so, I went out to find some food, only for a creeper to blow my ass up, leading to me scrambling back to where I died only to find literally everything except the iron bars.

But hey, tough shit right? I can deal with repeated beatdowns.

Except during today, while I was out, my sister played the game, and in a shorter span of time than I had been playing, she managed to get herself a big labrynth of a home, with plenty of resources and all around sufficiency.

That settles it guys. I'm done with Minecraft. Not because I'm mad at it, but because the game has shown clear signs that it is both sentient and full of hatred for me.

Some people are just intially good at Minecraft. I sure has heck wasn't, but I've improved. I'm STILL building blocky houses and have trouble gettign the nerve to explore caves, but I have grown to love the frequent stumbles, because I know that in all of these ways that I fail, I know what to improve.

I understan the issue of finding iron, sometimes veins get hard to come by, but strip mineing and making a bit of a web out of your mine will greatly increase your chances of finding stuff. Store all things that do not have a functionallity other than crafting in a chest, it won't do any good and if you die, say goodbye to that material.

I also recomend picking a spot that already has bare rock already reveiled. Those are really easy to find ore in, because you have a bit of pathline to follow.
Also, use charcoal ALWAYS above coal in furnaces. It's perfectly renewable and it works the same. Save coal for torchs.

Make your mines have only one, very protected entrence. Creepers are pro pathers, they will be able to find ways to you that are far outside their sight range to find you. Having one under your house is a good plan, depending on where you're building. There are the creepy ambences that will activatie sometimes, but that's one of the only drawback.

Do everything in your power to make your house mob proof. Put a pressure plate on the inside side of your doorway, the door will open when you are leaving and close it behind you, and when you come back you don't have to think about closeing the door. A glass ring on the walls of your house will keep spiders from gettign to any roof entrences and still discourage zombies and the such from trying to come in. A fence will do perfectly for most mobs too.

ALWAYS place your door down when your on the side that you will be coming IN, not out. Creepers would make love to a door placed from the side you will come out 'twere it a creature. Creepers get stuck there, and you can't do anythign to get them out other than to go out and kill them with a sword, which will probly backfire.

Sneakwalk around you're house. Creepers can't see through glass and will only know you're in there is if they hear you. And if they can hear you, they won't stop trying to get in. EVER.

That's all I have for now. Hope you get back into playing Minecraft sometime, once you get the hang of it, it'll be really, really fun.

Thanks for buying me Dungeon Defenders, Taco.

You're awesome.
