Sparse Internet Time
| Submitted by PhoeniX on Thu, 2012-06-07 15:16 | ||
Sorry I have been away for so long. My boss got a case of the (Expletive Deleted) again, and has a new person working the main office. And they put Siegetheday.org on the restricted sites list and password protected it so I could not even get on let anyone know why I had not been on. I have some very good maps created for Yesterhaven and Arhok, but cannot get them to you guys. I am at Library internet to post this. I should be able to keep in touch via EMail though. duglasm60@yahoo.com blogs: |

Got a wireless internet setup for my computer so I have access to the site again.
Just hope my funds hold out till I can get a regular check coming in.
Welcome Back Again. Happy you are back for however long PhoeniX
Your boss should let you adopt the Pomodoro technique... ^^ It's 25 intensive work, and 5 min break. After 4 sprints like that you take a longer break of 15-30 min. During those breaks you can do whatever helps you relax and think of other things besides work.
Have been very busy as of late getting my personal affairs in line. Should be moving into my own apartment next month.
Only downside is I may be without internet until my finances are stabilized again.
Oh, I just moved last month and have been occupied getting settled. Hope you found a place you like!
Hoping for a quick stabilization of your finances then. Congratulations on the apartment! ^^
Been a lot of running and getting nowhere fast but finally got into an apartment the 16th of October. Several different opportunities passed me by because apartments did not pass Housing Authority inspection. They are more strict for HUD VASH than regular Section 8.
Unfortunately, I am without an income now and waiting on word from 2 different sources and this will be my last month with internet for an undefined period.
Only have a couple days left on my paid time before withdrawal sets in.
Bright side, my rent and utilities are covered in the interim while my income is working itself out.
PhoeniX the very best of luck finding some income so that you can access to the Net, do laundry and eat.
You can always use the Library or a coffee shop from time to time to check in. There are also other ways to find internet access and the majority of them do not cause to much pain and some can actually be fun.
Sorry to hear you won't be around too much, but hopefully things will stabilize for you soon.
Posting from Library computer.
Merik and myself have formed a coalition called Bald Adventurers League of DS2, hereafter known as BALD. We are getting a petition together and will be taking it to Lord Kalrathia asking for equal adventuring time as our more hirsute colleagues.
Only have 15 minutes time so cannot keep up on current events. Hoping all are doing well and I will be back asap.
I would think taking your petition to Lord Hovart might be the better action since Lord Hovart has been missing all of his hair since he turned into a Skeleton. Actually I do believe that most of the male characters that visit this site will be joining the BALD as soon as they read about this.
It seems the ban on bald adventurers was the doing of Kynos in an attempt to limit the opposition to Valdis. Lord Kalrathia was unaware of the whole ordeal and has lifted the ban for bald adventurers in DS2.
I must assume that leader of the Society of the Bald has returned as I do not think there is any library open at this time. I mean I was a librarian in a past life :P
Yay!
Posting from my new computer on my new Comcast internet connection. Woot.
Got Windows 8/64 bit with a 3.3 ghz processor, 4G RAM and a terabyte HD.
Have to get all my files transferred from my Vista paperweight and put on this one.
Sounds like you have a good system. Does Windows 8 work with DS1 and DS2? The reason I ask is I am still running XP.
Yes it does as I have Win 8 on my laptop. Win 8 is basically a tweaked version of win 7 so anything that ran on that should run in win 8. It's just a hassle getting to grips with the new ui.
Great to see your new system PhoeniX!
That's great news. Your new computer sounds really nice.
Still trying to get all my tools/files working with Windows 8.
DS2 Toolkit loads and I can access Siege Editor 2, but Tank Viewer 2 will not work.
Tank Extractor works but Tank Creator 2 is giving me problems because AVG says it is a backdoor Trojan.
DSLOA loads but get a disc error when it gets to Expansion.dsres so I can play DS1 but not LOA.
DDS Converter still will not work.
Grrrrr......
Sorry to here about all the nasty problems you are having PhoeniX -- You can tell AVG that Tank Creator 2 is okay and not a backdoor trojan. can not remember exactly where in AVG that is located but it was there at one point. Check your mail too.
