you fucking disappoint me.

Dammit, I suck at getting to bed on time. I was much better at this back home for some reason. Seriously, I didn't even go anywhere today (other than school) and yet I still wasted copious amounts of time on unproductive things and now I should really sleep, but I feel obligated to do some app-related stuff and whatnot, and ( Read more... )

fail, heroes, baaaaaw, damned

Dude. As I have said many times before... welcome to my world, mwahahahahahahaahahah. >:D Yes, if I have any talent at all, it is the ability to spend entire days of free time on things other than what I am supposed to be doing (why, hey there, housework and laundry!).

And you so do not fail at being a mod. <33333 I honestly think you're awesome. ^___^ Hell... I couldn't even fathom doing what you and Erin and Fey do on a continual, long-term basis the way you gals have all been doing with Damned. With all that, on top of schoolwork, etc., I would want you to have some time just to recharge your batteries -- everyone needs that, especially those who have busy lives.

The thing is that I'm usually really good about budgeting my time, but I've just been pissing it away lately. Like, I understand I'm in another country right now, so that explains some amount of slowness, but I had free time to read apps and stuff today and I barely managed to get anything done. (At least I vacuumed my room, though. I'd been trying to get that done for days.)

I guess everyone needs some time to just chill out and do whatever they want, but I'm generally pretty good about balancing out work and play. Reading apps kind of counts as work, even though it's much more enjoyable than schoolwork/etc. Thanks for the kind words, though. I just know there are probably some people out there who are waiting for responses to their apps and don't know the circumstances and probably think we're just being slow because we want to be. D: Which isn't the case. And I feel bad making them wait.

Dude, don't sweat it so much. Like, I know you want to get through apps in a timely manner, but people have gotta cut you some slack since you're out of the country for the semester. That by itself is stressful enough, and it's important to let yourself recharge when you've got a lot on your plate. Really, all the work you pour into this game is amazing, so people who hold it against you are really silly, imo. >:

Just chip at it bit by bit, and then I'm sure it'll get done. Maybe try settling realistic goals for yourself so you won't feel guilty for shooting the breeze?

Yeah, I just realized that a lot of the applicants probably don't realize that I'm in Japan and probably think I'm just being more of a slacker than usual, ffff. I mean, they took the time to apply to a game I help run, so I wish I could be more timely about it. Thanks, though. 8D;;

I'll just keep working at it as much as I can, I guess. At least Erin's doing better than me. XD

You should never feel guilty for procrastination. It's, uh, healthy and necessary for good living. I tell myself this every day. :|

(No, seriously, you're fine. XD; App stuff is in the end still just game-stuff and therefore < RL. Plus, a lot of those apps are from players already in Damned, so we know you're in Japan and we understand the wait time. ♥ If you're really concerned, though, maybe hit the new applicants first?)

I actually read something in my Japan thing that a good way to avoid depression and culture shock and so on was to give yourself some relaxing time each day. :|

(Yeah, I know that people who are in the game probably understand a little more, but hitting the new applicants does sound like a good idea. I also don't want to shaft the loyal players, though. I'll just have to do my best!!)

Court, you've been an outstanding mod up to now, and this is hardly enough to negate that. You guys have a whole lot to do at once in regards to Damned, and you've got even more with being in Japan now. Procrastination is understandable. Sometimes you just have to take some time for yourself.

I guees you're right, yeah. In any case, guilt will at least inspire me to work harder whenever I get the chance, so!! I'll just keep trying. :|

I KIND OF WISH IT WASN'T ANIMATED, TBH. That's why I changed it. It was fun and all, but the animations could get irritating after a while.

Yeaaah, I can see how that might get annoying. There aren't any non-animated ones for him? D:
