Re: Stick Wars - An OOTS Mini-series Parody
Dammit...now I forgot what I w...oh yea
Ullii must be a Capricorn. Capricorn's stars are out of alignment right now. This wouldn't be so bad for any other sign, due to the fact that stars being out of alignment go from 1-2 days to about a month. However, Capricorns are the children of Saturn, and therefore unfortunate enough. But their star alignment can be out for up to 40 years.
I feel sorry for you, hun. *gives her cookie to Sneak*
(I have no true belief in this system. All that I've said was in sem-jest. However, for those that do believe in this system, I actually do know about it and can tell you that that's the actual rules for Capricorn and its alignment.)

Re: Stick Wars - An OOTS Mini-series Parody
Bank troubles? There's an old text adventure named Bureaucracy that was written by Douglas Adams that was inspired by his attempts to get his bank to recognize his change of address. Playing the game requires you to deal with such horrors as bank tellers, airline food, conspiracy theorists, Muzak, stamp collectors, and every other minor inconvenience you've ever experienced blown up to ridiculous proportions.
You can find it on some "abandonware" web sites - it (along with a good FAQ for some of the very obscure puzzles) might help relieve some stress.

Ronfar,
I believe Ullii is already playing the new and improved version of the game, with authentic graphics and ultra-realistic AI. ;D

Re: Stick Wars - An OOTS Mini-series Parody
I'm starting to think that Oots is cursed. ;) Seidaku, I hope you haven't been sick too. You two are seriously talented. Ullii, I hope your life gets back on an upswing soon, and not just because I'm enjoying stick wars.
Any word on whether there would be any more strips, Seidaku?

I'm fine, though I did have a nasty bout of food poisoning a few weeks ago. Last time I trust week old broccoli.

Yeah, I decided to start a new thread, rather than continue to hijack Ullii's. Hope you didn't mind my intrusion too much, Ullii :)

Re: Stick Wars - An OOTS Mini-series Parody
Of course not Seidaku, you are very talented! I love your comics very much! Good to know that the food poisoning wasn't too serious.
Bit of an update, got the groceries today. Good news: I'll have enough money for my share of next month's rent. Bad News: My roommate still doesn't have a job, and has spent the last of his money of a bottle of 95% proof Alcahol called Everclear. So I've given him one week to get a job or else he gets kicked out. He's a good friend, but I need a roommate that can pay their share. I mean, I lost ALL my money, and I still managed to get a job and get enough for my share this month, AND $100 of HIS share!
Conclusion: Things getting better, although that might just be the booz.
Bank News: I called them again for an update on their progress, and they knew nothing about it. After I finally got to speak with someone who could speak fluently in a language I can understand, I found out that I have to go back to my old town, which is my home branch, in order to sort all of this out. My old town is a 1 1/2 hour drive away, and I don't have a car, and I can't run 100 Km/h so I'm pretty much screwed.
For the record, NEVER do business with CIBC. That is the name of the bank. CIBC. Tell all your friends to burn down every CIBC they find.
With matches.
Was really sad to learn about Rich being in the hospital. I wish he would have told us what it was that made him collapse, but that's his choice. Good to hear he's feeling better, and hope it isn't too serious.
Well I have a few things to do tomorrow, but I should be able to make the strip. I have learned, though, not to make promises :) so no promises.
Thanks for all the kind words, and I'll talk (via text of course) to you all tomorrow :)

Re: Stick Wars - An OOTS Mini-series Parody
Ah, Everclear. That made Freshman year so much more enjoyable. All the kick of twice its volume in vodka, and for about half the price. Too bad it tasted like rubbing alcohol.
Yeah, this is pretty offtopic...oh well.
And it's at the top of the page. Oh well. I hope your situation gets cleared up soon. Just so you know, I've banked with Chas all my life (well, for the two years I've has a checking account) and never had a problem, even with their emphasis on internet banking, which is naturally rather unsecure. Just letting you know.Spoiler

I Think the self-entertainment is starting to wear off.
Hope thiings work out anyways.When a door of opportunity closes, another opens. Problem is that we stare at the closed door so intently that we never see the other open. -Author Unknown

Re: Stick Wars - An OOTS Mini-series Parody
The last two weeks have probably been the most skitzo weeks of my life.
From everything going down the drain very quickly, to what has happened now. Ok I'll explain:
I went back to my hometown to deal with the bank, where they told me pretty much that I'm screwed because there's no way to prove anything due to all of the purchases being from places in my area. This resulted in me being very pissed off, to say the least. I had to get a job very fast, and I got one at 7-eleven, where I spent a few days in training before they told me that I'd start off on part time for a few weeks, even though I was hired as full time, and the boss knew about my money and debt situation. Last tuesday I looked at my schedule and found out that they had changed things around, and my next shift was the friday of the NEXT WEEK!
Well, I wasn't very happy, and neither was my landlady, so I started looking for a new job, going to all the hotels in the area (i live near an airport, so there's lots) and asking for a nightshift job, because my roommate got a nightshift job at a hotel about a week ago. I never heard back from them, and got shoed away when I went to talk to them, so I was feeling pretty depressed.
After comming home from trying to get an interview at the Holiday Inn accross the street, I sit on my computer, and I get a message on my MSN. I accept the invitation, and the guy on the other end introduces himself as the Human Resources Manager of a Web Design company in the UK. He says that they came across my portfolio, and were impressed, and wanted to take me on as a graphics designer.
(my portfolio: www.jamiepeters.net)
That was on Friday. By the way, there is Insane money in graphic design!
So my friend Thomas calls me and asks if me and my roommate Brian want to go on a Camping-Roadtrip to BC (British Columbia, Canada) for the long weekend. I accepted, and we left on friday evening, and just got back now. It was really good for me, and got me really excited about moving to Victoria BC in two months from now.
So I'm still going to get a night-shift job here in Calgary for the next two months, then October 1st when my lease expires, I'm moving. Hopefully this job works out, and I'll make lots of money, because it would be just what I need, plus it's my DREAM JOB! Also, I got two seperate website contracts from word-of-mouth which I'm working on now, so I'm rather busy. Not to mention I still owe my friend Nick a website for his Artwork Portfolio.
Stick Wars... what will I do. I really don't see how I'm going to be able to make them. Don't expect them any time soon, at lease. I'll do them if I have some free time, and post it here, so just keep an eye on my sig, and if it says Episode 3 finished, you'll know I've finally done it.
I'm really sorry for all of this; it's been really hecktic, and with these new prospects for the near future, I can't see myself with a lot of free time in the next while.
You can throw tomatoes at me now :-/
