Breaking your brain before breakfast

[thistlechaser]

Blame Credit for this link goes to kalin_nestar: fantasygoat matches its name -- odd and somehow disturbing. It's an image-only journal full of...

Funny images:
Sometimes,
but not always PC...

Really odd images:
Heh heh... heh?
They'd all be improved this way...

And 'Oh my god, my brain!' images:
Work safe? Disturbing, but no naked parts shown.

And lastly: *snickersnerk*

Edit: Ha ha, what? Um? So many old posts to look through! But now and then there are naked bits, so be careful if you're at work and care about such things. Eee, so cute!

FFXI people: Folks keep mentioning going AFK overnight to get XP during Besiegeds, but it doesn't work. I've tested it twice: The first time I got zero XP/IS, but the Candysense was lost so I wasn't sure if that was a good test. Last night I tried again, and the Candysense was not lost, but I still got zero. So don't bother, leave the slot in the zone for people who will actually be active and fight. :) (I figured it wouldn't work, since you get reward for "doing your job", but people kept saying they should/they were going to...)

Edit: Holy cow! From today's update:

Along with the new chocobo raising system, in the upcoming version update we will be introducing the ability to call chocobos. This feature will allow players to call up and ride the chocobo they have lovingly raised.

No longer will adventurers have to rely on rental chocobos for traveling around Vana'diel! Players will be able to call their very own chocobos anywhere, at anytime.
Impress your friends with your personal chocobo mount!

...So we'll be able to call chocobos in the middle of wild zones? Like after a party finishes? No Fricking Way! That would be too useful!

Calling your chocobo will involve an enchant item, similar to the signal pearl or empress band. With the appropriate item equipped, you will be able to call your trusty mount at any time, in any area where chocobo riding is permitted.
We are planning on setting the enchant recast to a time period that won't adversely affect in-game balance. Rather than making it possible to recall your chocobo immediately after dismounting, it will be necessary to wait for a certain amount of time.

Any bets on a 20hr cooldown for summoning your chocobo?

Union rules :P

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it's going to be a 16 or 24 hour cooldown, most likely. :/ But still, even one use is better than none! And even better: If you go chocobo digging on your personal one, you'll get better results! Woo!

The Guild of Chocobos for Chocobos has issued the following statement:

Every chocobo has the right to live free! Though we choose to serve, and serve well, we are entitled *kweh* to holidays *kwee*. The wise and benevolent software engineers at Square-Enix have set the following holiday schedule:

M-F 12AM to 11:58PM
S 1AM to 12:57AM
S Closed

Thank you for your support and we look forward to our running about and being summoned on non holidays.

*snerks* So evil!

Today's Escort~

I forgot to pick up my scroll. ^^; So while I can come, I won't get a reward today. :3 Not sure if you want to give my spot to someone who can benefit, or no. :3

Oh drat! Hmm. We have Meyoh coming in that extra 6th slot, but if Draque can't come (sounds like he's still having computer issues?) we'd need a healer. I don't want you to have to come if you can't get the reward though. :/ Maybe we should call it off till next week? I don't know any other likely healers who would work out.

Well, I can come out. If nothing else, it'll make me go to Bastok and get my reward. :3 I just wasn't sure if you'd be able to get someone for my slot or no. And yes, D's still having issues. T_T We're trying to fix them as I type.

Heehee, well if you don't mind, it'd be great! And good luck helping D!

People who AFK to get Beseiged exp / milk it on low level jobs that can't do anything really annoy me. All they do is add to lag without contributing to the fight, it just makes us more likely to lose.

What? You mean the level 2 WHM can't help??!!! racist! lol gm call 4 u!!

:P

[onionkiri.livejournal.com]

oh, and that pic is soooo cute, it makes me want a hamster again ; ;

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Same. They're so cute! Unfortunately they'd be unfair temptation for my cat.

Poor Mr. Piggles was never quite the same after the transvestite incident. :(

Also, yay for your own chocobos! I don't play, but after seeing that, I am sorely tempted to sign up. If only dial-up wasn't such a cruel, soul-sucking mistress!

[thistle-chaser.livejournal.com]

Well, I'll be sure to post screenshots, so hopefully that will help a little? :)

[wanderingscribe.livejournal.com]

Aww, thanks. I appreciate it.
