The Mind Of OverlordTomala
All in an Overlord's day / Work

Survived another day.

I managed to survive yet another clusterfuck in the bakery. It seems I wasn’t the only one suffering today. My department suffered due to a sick call, and they couldn’t get me to help them since I was helping the bakery (if you want to call it help since I have no idea what the fuck I’m doing). The entire grocery department vanished (more sick calls and people going to lunch) I went to lunch in bakery and no one covered it (since they want one person and only one person over there during evenings. And last but not least a poor young girl who pushes carts had to push carts with a 104 degree fever because others were either too sick to come in or had other plans… This company just becomes more and more awesome…

I’ll be going back to my regular job tomorrow, with extra hours! I’ll be bringing the laptop with me, I’ll have an entire hour to kill. If the internet connection doesn’t suck at work I may do some TF2.

Saving all my fun for later.

Short evening for me tonight since I have company showing up a couple hours before work. I decided to download some more games into my inventory tonight since I’ve made some space thanks to the new feature through steam. Yes, Steam (in beta right now) allows you to install any of your steamapps to any hard drive or folder. I moved my SFM install to my apps drive for Win 7 and free’d up a ton of space (since like garrysmod I plan to use a bunch of assets). So I’m going crazy on downloading more stuff to play.

Work was ok tonight, I don’t have much to report. Other than I got back at Mrs Waxpaper, by DOING MY JOB.

Early Morning Open Thread

Well, things were really exciting last night. I had two people in one of my fitting rooms try to get intimate with each other… They held off while I could be heard in the area though, so I had someone knock on the door to ruin their parade. You know, sanitation issues and all that.

Tried a new tea tonight! Black tea with peach and ginger. Had some while I was playing some L4D2. Fucked with some greifer’s btw… For some reason some of them tried to either kill me or lock me out of the saferoom… Making everyone explode seemed to change some attitudes.

Also did some CS:GO and TF2. I can happily say that the updates to the CS:GO server didn’t rape my server in any way. I would have continued to play TF2 longer tonight, but the internet became about as reliable as a drunken sailor at around 5:30 PDT. Good thing our servers are in house. We still managed to get a good 15 minutes in before getting kicked.

Early Morning Open Thread

Tonight I generated some nav files for some awesome TF2 maps. I decided I wanted to go for an Egyptian theme tonight for a good slaughter. They’ll be showing up in future episodes of You Can’t Do That On XBox! sometime in the future, I need 5 more episodes worth of footage and I’ll be set (I’m already at 15 of 20).

Didn’t do much today on a sunny afternoon. I kicked back and enjoyed some green pineapple tea, picked out my clothes for the work week ahead. All seems to be good… hopefully.

Today was a productive day.

Well, I cleaned the jungle out from under my bed.. Found 3 unused wine bottles in the process, some canned vegetables, a rock, and a bunch of pots and pans (they’re clean they’re clean!) and now it’s all vacuumed. Everything looks as it should be. My mind feels less cluttered now.

I also decided to sew some buttons back together on one of my Chinese shirts, and sew a button back onto some trousers. I have one more top I need to alter, but that will require breaking out the sewing machine. Maybe next week.

Got the CS:GO server up and running on the latest update with the dev branch of metamod and sourcemod. So far no issues, and the new maps are fantastic.

MagiQuest online to shut down.

The online MMO known as MagiQuest will be shutting their doors on December 31, 2012 according to their website.

Creative Kingdoms with our development partner Cyan Worlds, has expanded the world of MagiQuest into the online world with its MMO MagiQuest Online since March 2010.

While all involved are immensely proud of MagiQuest Online, we have decided to discontinue MagiQuest Online on December 31, 2012. This decision was not made lightly, but was determined to be the best plan of action after much investigation.

For those Magi who have not yet had a chance to experience the magic of MagiQuest Online, the game will remain available on the MagiQuest website and at select MagiQuest locations until October 29, 2012.

For existing Magi, we invite you to return and enjoy MagiQuest Online until the game shuts down on December 31, 2012.

Note that this shutdown only covers MagiQuest Online services. The MagiQuest live sites, website, online retail shop, and online customer support system will continue to operate as usual.

For questions or concerns, contact us at http://magiquest.com/contact-us/.

Thank You

The MagiQuest Online Team

So for those who know of Cyan’s track record, does anyone else see a pattern here?
