This journal is friends only. If you'd like to read my journal, please leave a comment and let me know who you are, how we know each other, and why you want to be reading my journal. But if I don't add you back, please don't take it personally... I'm having a really hard time keeping track of everyone on my list right now, and I don't want people to feel neglected.
This is the fucking funniest thing I have ever watched in my life. Especially when Hizaki goes to fondle his boobs and realizes he doesn't have any... XD(Kamijo riding a pig is also pretty darn great.)
I started writing this in a comment to Inertia and then it got so long that I figured I should just make it into my entry... ^^;
Super fun time at Akon. Much thanks to Sephie/Nikki/Neme and co who were great to hang out with and be all fangirly. XD It was super great to meet you all, I had a lot of fun!
The Rockstar Taste of Chaos Presale ends on January 11th at 5 p.m. EST.
Time's running out for pre-sale tickets to the U.S. shows! Remember, pre-sale tickets let you in early, meaning they're your only shot at those front row spaces in any standing lives---just one of the many perks that come with buying via pre-sale. A few of the pre-sales have closed, so don't wait any longer!
Also, we've received questions regarding the Canadian dates.
RTOC is going to the U.S. and Canada. Nothing has been completely set in stone, but we are giving you a heads-up that unfortunately, as of right now, the Canadian wing of RTOC will not include the Jrock bands; only the U.S. wing. We will wait to edit previous posts until a formal announcement has been made, but we wanted to keep everyone updated.
Yeah, you guys are getting a big 'ol FUCK YOU from me.
Seriously disappointed that RToC apparently seems to have added more american dates to the Jrock leg to fuck the canadians out of seeing some decent asian music.
I would have possibly considered looking into shipping down to the US to see this, but - wait! No one announced anything until most of the presales have closed, and there's no way I'm shepping out plane fare when all I can get is a crappy ticket.
Poor show on the part of both Jrock Revolution and ToC.
Ok. DDR for the Wii at the moment gets a huge thumbs down from me. It's obvious they just threw in a bunch of new features to make use of the Wii's Wii-ness without actually solidly testing them in game play, cause.... they suck.
1) Hand movements. Cool in theory. Except they don't have any kind of indicator for when it goes off like the steps, so it's impossible to see if you're doing it the way the computer wants you to or not. Either that or the sensitivity is fucked. And not adjustable. And of course, there isn't any decent tutorial for them, they just through you into it.
2) Double step - steps you have to hit twice on the beat. These are actually ok, but not really needed, and hard to train your brain to recognize when you're used to double steps looking like, well, two steps in a row.
3) Hand bombs. All the annoying-ness of the hand movements with the added aggrevation that they just kind of fly around the screen randomly and when they hit one of your arrows you have to swipe it back towards the other player or your meter goes down SIGNIFICANTLY. This is the greatest loose so far.
4) Foot distractors. Large annoying brightly coloured arrows that fly around the screen and obscure your steps. And you CAN'T TURN THEM OFF. Dood, if I wanted half blind or sudden death mode I'd, you know, turn it on.
5) Foot bombs. Same as above but if you accidently step on them your meter goes down significantly.
6) Screen Stompers. Steps you HAVE to step on or a giant gray ball rolls up and obscures your screen. Yeah.
The result of all this? DDR newbie HELL. Seriously, there's no way they can expect anyone who hasn't had a decent amount of DDR gameplay in the past to be able to pick these all up at once AND teach their brain to read the steps properly. So unless you're having a Hottest Party full of seasoned DDR players... this game is absolutely useless.
Pictures from last night. Somehow Shin ended up looking the shortest, after shoes, stands and all that. And he's so cute. <3 <3 <3 Cheek-pinchingly cute. Which of course if I ever said to his face I would get my ass kicked for...
Restricted myself to 4 shots per dorrie. Other shots under cuts. :)
This is a beautiful piece of work. I'd love to see someone able to purchase it and pay for the restorations then donate it to a museum, or donate it to a museum for them to restore. ;__;
I'm surprised no French museums or galleries have championed the cause, but maybe the seller hasn't tried to contact any of them... throwing an artifact up on Ebay seems kind of like a cop out way to get rid of it...
I just sent rainbow ribbons to everyone on facebook. For a very brief moment before hitting the "send" button, I pondered the fact that this would include my cousin and a couple of Mormons.
This morning I took advantage of my internal clock being fucked to do a shoot with my newest boys that I've been putting off for a while.
Since Rice is embarking on their first tour outside Japan, I dug up some suitably Rice-y clothing and did some happy Rice cosplay. (Kuronue makes such a cute Hiro <3 <3 ) I was very tempted to incorporate the duck boxers. But I resisted. Also, Hiro does not play the violin. It's just a prop. Sadly, I don't have a 1/3 size drum set (oh god where would I keep it??) as cool as that would be.
Threw up a bunch of my fur wigs (SD size only) on Ebay since they've got cheap listing fees today. I don't really want to take orders since it's hard for me to keep up with my carpal, but I figure if I make a bunch on my own time and throw them up there every once and a while it should be ok, and get me some extra dorrie monies. ^___^
Also selling a couple Jrock mags and artbooks and CDs (Never Cage, Kurogane and Sweet Romance)
If you don't regularly watch Doctor Who, I very much urge you to watch it tonight on the sci-fi channel at 8. Tonight's episode is "Blink" written by Stephen Moffat. And it's truely fantastic! You don't even really need to know anything besides the general idea of what Doctor Who's about.
Ditto to this. It's the only episode of Dr. Who I've seen and it's _fucking_fantastic_.
If you don't get the sci-fi chanel or can't catch this, drop a note and I can find you a Veoh link. ^_~
