任是无情也动人

Dusted off the ol' Apprentice online MtG program today. A bunch of peeps from CBR have been getting together over AIM to play, and I haven't had a chance to what with my busy weekday schedule and my parents.

But today, I got a chance to play. For some strange reason, my computer won't connect to MunchKING's, so I didn't get to play the guy who it seems everyone else has been beating to the ground *g*... but I played Daemon (Dantrinoth on AIM), and won 3 out of 3 games. Not bad for having not played for over a year. ^_^

Well, actually, I only won clearly for 2 of the games. The first one really didn't have a clear outcome when he said he wanted to just forfeit and start over. But at that time, we were still pretty even. Both with over 40 life points (the game starts off with 20 life points each) and a multitude of 13/13 elves (most critters are around 1/1 to 3/3 or so in their natural state). It was funny, 'cause he had a vastly pro-elf deck, which gave him oodles of bonuses for every elf in the game. I, by "coincidence", also had an elf-heavy deck, which normally would've only benefitted him, if it weren't for that I also had a smattering of blue-spells which I used to take over his bonus-generator cards. *eg*

Yeah, yeah... that's probably waaay too much info for those of you who don't care a whit for MtG. I'm just feeling good about myself right now. It won't last, I promise. :D

...just so y'all know I haven't dropped off the face of the earth, or dropped this journal.

Anyways, after a couple days of faint cramps and stomach discomfort, the "pre" part of premenstrual syndrome is officially over today. Which means full-on cramps. Ouch. This may also explain my lack of energy/drive to do anything the last few days as well. Yes, I'm blaming the lack of journal entries the last few days on PMS. Feh. Bah.

Other depressing stuff today... because today is just like that... found out that when Jonah revamped the forums last week, he redid all the post counts. I've lost almost half, and now will probably not even make the 10,000 mark again until year's end or something. Bleh. Can't believe Yeo is above me. And Meta only dropped one rank in the top 10. Bah.

(Attempts to find silver lining... at least I fared Genma, who lost more than half his posts and dropped from 3rd/4th place to not even on the first page. And Rumbles, at least, didn't lose any important threads, unlike the X-board or Comm. Too bad Comm didn't lose Rita's... that would've let Soap Operus reign as longest thread on the boards.)

Feh. A really, really, really grey day. I say again: Feh.

Introducing: The Fic-authors Inferno! See where fanfics rank in the Fanfiction Circles of Hell! (IMO, of course.)



Dont'cha just love it that the Mary Sues are "immersed in excrement"? Much more fitting fate then being frozen in ice one circle down. *eg*

And regarding where I put "Biologically Impossible Acts"... don't hit me, cashew... my response to blatant non-canon fics of my favorite fandoms is just about the same as yours is to impossible biology... except I'm not as loud, o'course. :p
