Another normal day passes. At the end of it I bought some gingerbread chai, Indian chai and some tension tamer tea. It’s been getting into the 40’s and 30’s here at night so it’s nice to have some hot beverages. Yesterday I even bought a sugar and cream holder set for my tea pot collection, since I’m still a pot head after all.
On another note, you folks can’t see it. But I have had to delete 3 comments. All by spambots that think I need a bigger penis.
All in an Overlord’s day
>Overlord Overtime
On Saturday, Sunday and today your Overlord has managed to get Overtime. More money so I can screw the rules… But your Overlord is royally beat. Today 6 1/2 hours instead of 5 (which I didn’t mind, yesterday 11 1/2 hours (ouch!) and the day before that a normal full shift with 15 minutes over. I’ll sleep good tonight.
Just made myself a little Pad Thai and some fresh spinach with lime dressing. Finished the last of the antioxidant green tea box. And today I bought plenty of stuff for kitchen experimentation either tomorrow or the next day.
Now I would like to share with you a top I wore today:
Red V Neck wrapped sweater with a bow, and my Overlord cap. Smexy… The gold necklace is nice too.
Meh… Guess I’ll go sleep now.
>Clarification.
I would like to clear something up from Chuckles’ post yesterday. He says that the Slackers are friendly. That has to be the biggest line of BS anyone from Slackers has ever said in the history of ever. Every time a slacker smiles a puppy dies, it’s bad luck if you let one cross your path, and I’m pretty sure walking under one doesn’t bring anything good.
That’s it Chuckles! I want you off my blog by midnight 12:00 PDT! semplerfi is taking your place!
And random fashion week returns.

We had burgers once again tonight. Today was a lazy gray day. And I’ll soon finish off the night by lighting some sage incense. Incense is a favorite to buy, it’s cheap and depending on the kind you buy it smells good. It’s a great way to calm your mind before returning to hell the next day. But at least it’s been a relaxing 3 days.

It was really warm in Brookings today. So warm that I wore this after paid slavery.
Sweaters, the perfect summer accessory for around here…
On another note I have been doing more experiments with that evil Garrysmod program. I went out of my way to spend $3.39 for HLDMS and HLS combined. So I have two new games that can be ported over to Garrysmod. You simply cannot pass up such a cheap bit of evil.
>Late Night Open Thread
I spent my final vacation day at home relaxing and making a couple of meals and snacks for the days to come. And did some shard protesting. Someday logging into those shards will bring them down… Oh! And I did some online shopping just now. Pictures will be provided when it arrives in the mail. But it’s perfect for an Overlord like me, that’s fer sure.
Well, guess I’ll go sew some stuff back onto a couple of shirts now.

Today I soaked some color up at the river. Someone was climbing on a slippery redwood in the water and managed to fall on their… Yeah. That inspired an idea for a future age that my family and I would love to write.
I finally tried a white chocolate macadamia breakfast cookie! And it was yummmmm. Think the regular cookie only in breakfast form…. Heavenly goodness from San once again.
It was a nice three days off from Slavery. Now I’ll work another 3 days. Then my actual paid vacation time can begin! At that point I’ll prepare for my Spokane adventure.
Oh, and I have a cute kitty picture. Sammy found a new hiding place.
>The dark art of hacking is upon us.
This has been discussed on many forums and maybe even some blogs in the past, but community this needs to be addressed.
As you may know, there are people among us who know the dark art. Or as some call it, hacking or even haxx0ring. Hacking is a threat to our In Caverness. Sure it brings us things like fan made ages, but who would waste their time wanting to explore things a Cyan fan made, when you can enjoy a Cyan age? Why I remember when linking into Jalak for the first time, I was speechless and my jaw was nearly to the floor asking myself “who would take the time to make something like this?” Cyan that’s who!!!
This is what sparked me to write this blog entry.

There is a post that got deleted from that thread that says the following:
This is a load of mess BTW as that information likely came from a public whois database.
Jeez.
My heroes at the MOUL board did the right thing in deleting that post. But I think they could have taken it a bit farther. They should have deleted that entire thread since it could be used as a reference to hacking. And don’t end it there either! Delete every single thread or post that has these following words:
Hack, haXX, Haxx0rs, hackers, age creation, adminKI, userKI, slackers, prp, OOC, python, lima beans, and last but not least Until Uru,
You know, if we had more people like my hero Whitch2, we wouldn’t even have this problem. If they hired me I’d do a wonderful job as moderator. Just as long as I have plenty of cheetos and flavorade.
>PizzAMORE
Well community it’s that time of the year again. Cyan is creating MORE, and you know what that means!!! That’s right! It’s high time for the sacrificial pizza to be sent to the Cyan gods. Now sure, some of you cynics are gonna say “Ummm, Cyan hasn’t gotten MORE here yet, why should we celebrate”, and to those of you who would say that I have only but this to say. You call yourself a Cyan fan and you have to ask that stupid question?
Making sure Cyan has enough pizza isn’t the only thing we should be worrying about. We should also be worrying about what names we’ll be using when the time comes, what our KI numbers will be, and if anyone can come up with other things for me to worry about let me know. I’m making a list and checking it twice.
>Say goodbye to OOC
Community,
IC is an important part of our online way of life. It’s important to be as IC as possible to one another. The Guild Of Imaginists is a good step in the right direction. But I feel we could do more to make a big change in our community. We need to eliminate OOC completely, for example look at the MOUL forum:
http://www.mystonline.com/forums/index.php
See what I saw? A Technical Discussion, for a GAME!!!! And what else??? A place to talk about spoilers tips and hints oh my! Community there are no hints, tips and spoilers on how to play real life. Why should there be any for Uru?
I also think that there should be some heavier moderation of the suggestions area. For example limit it’s access to it’s best fans in Uru. GOG, UO, Great Tree, etc. Because this community needs more ideas from people like them.
