Microsoft Employees Disrupt Wii U Best Buy EventsRemember how Nintendo was showcasing some of their E3 games at participating Best Buy stores around the country? Well, apparently Microsoft employees have been hired to go to these events and preach about the Xbox One and make comments like "why would you buy a outdated Wii U when the Xbox One is right around the corner?"
However, the employees aren't getting what they hoped for. Most customers just start bashing the Xbox One in response. Seriously, Microsoft, the people attending these Best Buy Wii U events are people who are intimately familiar with the crap you pulled at E3. They ain't takin' your shit.
At first I thought this might just be a case of one really loyal Microsoft employee taking matters into his own hands (especially since the original source was /v/), but reports have come in from numerous Best Buy's around the country that indicate many Microsoft employees have ambushed the demo lines trying to persuade people to switch to the Xbox One.
Since so many reports have com

Please Pants Responsibly (Paper Notebooks FTW)

There are two ways to write a novel. Plotting (you make an outline, a plan, a roadmap if you will, and then you sit down and write it) and pantsing (you write "by the seat of your pants, throwing caution to the wind). So when I get asked if I'm a plotter or a pantser, I'm all like er, uh, hold on, let me? Pantser? I think? But I kind of, um, do planny things?
And it gets kind of awkward because in these inarticulate moments I have managed to confuse everyone including myself. And probably spilled a drink.
In recent discussions, however, I've had a bit of a revelation, silly as it is. I've realized that I -- like many writers -- am a plotter/pantser hybrid. And perhaps what I'm doing is something we could call Pantsing Responsibly. And, maybe, just maybe, I could share some of my responsible pantsing tips with other writers. Starting with paper notebooks.
Anyone can find a notebook. If there isn't alread

The Used Game ParadigmOver the course of this past generation I've been watching the video game market react to the way it's been forced to deal with increasing changes. I've come out against used game sales and even written a journal about boycotting GameStop because (like most people at the time) I believed they were the root cause of all the problems the video game industry has. But that's something I don't believe now as intently as i did then. From where I sit, piracy and used games sales are a problem, but not in the way game companies want us to believe that they are.
Used games are a good thing for consumers. We get to try games out, and if we don't like what we see or finish it early, we trade it in and try another title instead. It's a very good system for us since video game rentals are much harder to come by. Most video rental stores in America have gone extinct and outside specific Red Box Kiosks there aren't a lot of places for consumers to rent video games. The exception, of course, being thr

SPIKE updatesJust thought I'd share with you guys some updates on the progress of finishing my "SPIKE" novel.
A lot of people have asked me how it's going, when it will be published and stuff. I really appreciate getting asked these things because it shows that people are actually interested in my writings, and that it just such a great feeling

I've got two news for you guys today though: one bad news and one good news. Let's start with the bad news.
I haven't finished writing SPIKE yet.
And I honestly don't know when it will be finished - which oddly enough brings us to the good news:
I've made a new, major decision in the SPIKE story that I think a lot of you will be happy to hear. As usual I don't want to spoil too much, but there is a part in the story where Spike and Sam are separated from each other for quite a long while. At first I was planning on only writing from Spike's point of view, like, what he's experiencing during this separation period. I figured that since he's the main cha

Music Is My Inspiration ContestWell guys I've decided to start my own contest, because I had awesome feedback on the idea ^_^
It'll be my first contest that I've held...EVER! So it's very exciting :3
So, about the theme of the contest. Well whenever I've felt down and blue because I've been slapped upside the head with an art block, I like to wallow in self pity and blast my favourite tunes XD (LOL) It's extremely therapeutic

and it really does help to inspire me with new ideas

.
A perfect example would be my OC's Medi-kate & Black Nova, both created from inspiration from music.
http://fav.me/d609vsk http://fav.me/d5tfe4z
So basically the gist of it is, I want you guys to listen to some music, find a song that inspires you, pick one of my OC's, and create something awesome

With all that being said, let's get down to the nitty gritty details!
*****************************************************************

Journals / Personal

now Setsucon is over, it was a nice tiny convention.
and I met a lot of nice people,
it was nice to meet you guys there!!
I would love to go next year too if I could get a table.

by the way, I used China town bus to go State collage from NY,
which is 4hrs drive, and the "bus" came to NYC china town to pick me up was not even a bus,
but an old tiny van with no heater no restroom.
and then, the guy sat on next to me was pretty stoned,
dancing with his iPod volume so loud, yelling at his phone,
or talking to himself for the entire drive way.
and then, the back door of the van opened up in the middle of a road,
and the package was almost fell off from the van.
IT WAS CRAZY!!!!!
if I'm going back to PA next year, I would love to drive.
well, I gotta get a car license first, lol

I can say honeslty, mostly Chinese really really rude in attitude.Although I dont have those kind of habit,but this issue and their culture alttitude make shame of myself to being a Chinese

*jurithedreamer Feb 10, 2010

well, most of Chinese ppl are nice,
sometimes they just hassle themselves too much or something,
I get ashamed sometimes being Japanese
when I see crazy Anime or hear about crazy Japanese porn... lol

~Azureseilue Feb 27, 2010

I thought Japanese are all great in art with name of art country LOL , Just like I seen the newspaper wrote the most lust and porn country is Korea

Are they using fake info swt~

*jurithedreamer Mar 3, 2010

I think Japan making most Anime porns in the world, lol
but I didn't know about Korea being lust....
either way, both our society is too shy and strict about open sexuality,
so I guess ppl are frustrated or something.

~slipperyscales Feb 5, 2010

Oh my gosh! What a horrible "bus" ride! My friends and I were 4 hours away too. I couldn't imagine spending four hours next to someone like your bus partner. Pennsylvania was beautiful to drive through though. Thank you for the print at Setsucon, by the way! (I was the girl with the long black/blue hair and in the sailor school girl uniform!) Every time I look at it I sigh happily. I can't make it to Katsucon but I hope to see you at another con soon! Will you be going to Otakon?

*jurithedreamer Feb 10, 2010

it was horrible in it,
but to look back, it's kinda funny now.

thank you so much for gettin my print and
I'm glad to hear it makes you happy!
I am going to Otakon, hope see you there!!

~slipperyscales Feb 10, 2010

See you there! ^^

~AkabaraYashiki Jan 20, 2010 Student General Artist

OMG! I saw you at Setsu! But I was so preoccupied with watching the kids from my school that shopping was second priority to me T.T I picked up your card and didn't get a chance to look at it until later and I think I screamed. T.T I'm excited for Katsu, I'll definitely look for you there ^^

*jurithedreamer Jan 20, 2010

thank you for coming to my dA page!
hope you enjoyed the con even you were with your students(??)
and hope see you at Katsucon!

~AkabaraYashiki Jan 20, 2010 Student General Artist

I run the club at school, they're my classmates, but they're all underclassmen ^^ I did have fun, and I hope to see you at Katsu~
