Ramble XVIII

The number on the ramble posts have grown quite large I think. But well, it’s easier to write than Daily Report blah, blah, blah… and it’s more correct since a daily report is mostly about what I’ve done during the day… which I seldom talk about. I mean why would I just ramble on and on about what I’ve done except for something that is of interest that I want to share. Or maybe people would enjoy something like…

06:03 – Woke up, Drak still asleep so I went back to sleep.
06:08 – Started dreaming, I was a boy on a train station with my grandparents…
08:23 – Woke up again for some reason, had a minor headache, went back to sleep.
09:09 – Opened my eyes and saw Drak, greeted him and the day begun…

Or not, this is not a report and you shouldn’t know everything I do just by reading a timetable. There is no interest in things like that, at least not for me.

It’s been really nice weather yesterday and today, speaking of bananas. This kind of weather reminds me of all those days I spent alone in the forest when I was a kid in the winter. Either I took my skis and went a couple of laps around the mountain or I would just take a mini-shovel and walk around and dig snow caves in the forest thinking of whatever.

Yeah! They’ve finally started coming somewhere with the chipping of the PS3-units! This is really great since they are so many interesting games that seem to be arriving soon that I would like to have the possibility to play if I wanted to. Right now they still just have made it possible to play PS2 games on the PS3 which are stored in a hard drive but that is good enough for me. As long as I can play my downloaded PS2 games I can just wait until I can burn the PS3 games and buy or fast play the games I want to play.

The only complication so far with this method is that it requires a PS3 of the first generation thus a NTSC version and not a PAL since the hack doesn’t work yet to PAL but it will soon. Hopefully, by the time I get a PS3 they should have fixed this and everything will be good and well. Now first are a LCD TV and then I can start thinking about other stuff if I don’t get cold feet and start saving money and stuff. I need a good supply of money in the future I think and well… I might have to pull a stunt or two. Well, time will tell…

This break or pause that seems to have appeared on the RPG-front has given me a lot of time to think about things, mostly about worldly stuff but also about the ongoing campaigns and groups. I haven’t actually worked on anything in a matter of speaking if one define work as writing down stuff in documents but I’ve been structuring and experimenting in my head. I’ve also compared some stuff, like A Dark Life. I’ve compared my original thought about the campaign, or not really thought but rather my vision and expectations, with the results and how things have changed as we’ve played.

Some stuff have changed from my original thought a little, I’ve pushed some things aside and amplified other things. I’ve also changed some details in the workings and I’m considering yet another change, which you won’t experience with this group, most likely. But as I stated from the original statement, this campaign is partly and mainly about showing and expressing the vampire society to you and also to expand, elaborate and change it if I see things that are in need of moderation. All in all I’m very satisfied so far and due to the lack of interest in the characters I’ve been more interested to pushing forward and to jump over things that were mostly to prepare for a continuation.

I see that it’s still some problems with the feed for some reason. I don’t know if the problem is with Opera, the blog or something completely different. Even so it works at least which is good… now if I only could get all the stats to work as intended. Both stats seem to have become fucked-up and I’m considering actually resetting them all and just starting counting from 13’000. It’s a little annoying to must check about three different pages and plug-ins before I get a complete picture of everything I want to know.

Oh I how evil I feel right now…

Be Alert,
