Leena signed me up to Twitter, I’ve even been using it a bit, more than LJ at any rate!
My user name is Lord_Ilpala.
Midlands was last weekend, it was nice seeing people and even nicer to see so many new, talented faces. The Masquerade has nearly outgrown the event though O.o
Lots of thanks to everyone who came and helped and apologies if I wasn’t all smiles and happiness - I was struck down by something nasty Friday night and really suffering all of Sat :(
I very nearly bought myself a Transformers messenger bag to cheer myself up but all the nice ones had ‘Revenge of the fallen’ all over them. Damn you Bay!
Cosplay for Minami progresses but I have a lot on in the coming weeks so I really need to get construction finished this week so that I have plenty of time for finishing.
Don’t actually know how I’m going to keep half of it in place either so interesting times ahead.
I also have a lot of models to get painted for Tournaments in April.
Games have been set to ‘Grind’ I don’t dare start a new one at the moment so I’m slowly working my way up to the big challenges in FFXIII and letting my pleby B-spec Stigs level up in GT5 while I accumulate enough cash to buy 1000 cars for a giggle and a trophy.
My opinion of GT5 is varied. The majority of the game has been quite wonderful with a reasonable balance between fun races and events and ones that are blindingly difficult for those that like a challenge, however by the end, if you’re a completionist - You have to take part in races and grinding that are so long and so mind numbingly boring or frustrating that watching paint dry seems like an exciting option. I have no idea what the designers were thinking.
You will have been playing for at least 150+ hours in the first place just to get to that point though…..
