2 WEEKS NO UPDATES?!

Well that's not entirely true. Its been 2 weeks without me posting here regarding my updates. There has been quite a few updates to this:


  1. All pictures being used for the banner (and this site) have been inked
  2. The current picture I'm coloring (in photoshop) is 75% complete
  3. There have been 2 new stories I have taken pictures of (now I have to edit them, and add the text)
  4. About 5+ pictures have been taken for the image gallery
  5. A few more story ideas have been created
  6. The finished plan of the layout has been made

That was done in 2 weeks! Although only 2 of those things were done this week. Anyway its looking like I might not have spare time this weekend either so the layout will probably be complete some time in November (possibly in the middle).
There has been a few funny TK sessions I have had in Gunbound, and I have also made a few more allies! (Can't have enough). Having said that there has been like 5 people so angry at me they threatened to do many things to me. They go as followed:

  1. One person actually said that he would come to my house and kill me
  2. Another person told me to look at my email account because there was a surprise waiting there. She also told me to say bye bye to my chicken account!
  3. Yet another person said that I was going to be banned (as well as some of my friends who created the room). When I said I used proxies, he replied by saying that my other friends didn't use any proxies and that they would get banned too.
  4. A totally addicted Gunbound freak told me I had no life. I inspected this guy for a bit and he was on gunbound for like 4 hours a day! While I barely manage to go on half an hour a day. With all this information, you tell me who the freak is? I was teaching him a lesson not to take Gunbound so seriously, and to have fun with it. He replied by saying I was gay. From then on I made Yo momma jokes to him until he quit the game.
  5. In one game my friend told me to play serious for 1 match (as a favor). I chose to simply use aduka and practice high angle shots. Then out of no where when I said this one teammate called me a noob and killed me! This is ironic seeing how I wasn't TK'ing. When I got back down I thought it was my duty to proove him wrong (that I wasn't a noob), so In 2 perfect, long raged hits I killed him.
  6. Finally there were numerous amounts of people saying that they (or a friend) would hack my CHICKEN ACCOUNT! O god, not my chicken account. People who do this, just think for a bit. If you actually had the ability to hack, don't you think that we would suspect you of having better avatars? Wouldn't you go out and hack an account with a phoenix in it? Or hack an account with a better rank then you?

This just goes to show that people take Gunbound too seriously. Here's a pleasant reminder: ITS JUST A FREAKIN GAME! The worlds not going to end if someone TK's you, so don't get so upset. Go outside for a change, there's something outside that box! And for everyone that threatens me by saying my account will get banned, or hacked its time that you stopped it. I've been reported about 3 times a day for Team Killing, which brings me to my conclusion: YOU CAN'T GET BANNED FOR TEAM KILLING! Yup, its true I hate to break it to you. During the game if you team kill you get a penalty (-Gold, and -GP). That is the penalty! I payed the price for team killing there's nothing else you can do!

To end it off no one got banned during these 2 weeks TK sessions, and no one ever will!

Sick, with updates

I hope you read the title right it says Sick (COMMA) with updates, meaning I'm sick, and I also made some updates. Anyways theres not much updates... Just that I'm 50% done with inking the pictures... My weekend was consumed with homework, and a birthday party :( . This meant I only had like 30 minutes to finish my drawings, and ink them. I might be going to a wedding this weekend (depending how much home work I have), if I have too much (which is usuall for me), then I'm staying here slaving away at it. This means that I also have alot more time to finish the layout :)
I went jewl rigging on gunbound a few days ago. Basically its when you attack the -jewls (causing your team to lose points, and therefore loose the match), and if there are no -jewls on the field, or if your team is at 0 points (you can't get negative points 0 is the lowest you can go) you attack your teammates (yet you don't lose points!).
Also I forgot to tell everyone I finished the design for the TK uniform (if you choose to have one) The FULL uniform (composed of all avatar parts) includes a red bandana, santa suit, red flag, and rudolf nose. I chose this outfit because it makes you look like an evil santa. If you can't afford all of this (or don't want to play gb that much to get it), but still wan't to wear something that represents the TK Crew, just buy at the very least a red bandana. And if you feel like it, from then on you can add the rest of the stuff to it. It took me a while to play by the rules to get all this stuff (on my RanterHate account), but after I got it I began TK'ing again! I'll remember to post a picture of it when the layout is done. After that I will get a .tk domain (coincidence?)
Well I got to go finish my homework, I missed alot of school today and therefore I must pay the price and call my friends to find out what I missed.

Major Content Update!

Through this week I have made alot of progress in the content of this site. I decided to leave the screenie program I use on, just in case theres something I wan't to take a picture of!
After doing this I have made 3 new stories (all still being edited), 1 guide, and a few screenies (For the screenie section). Although all my stories need to be edited (this will take forever!) as you can see the content will be immense. 2 of the stories I have made will be sequels!
The names of the stories include "Return of the Dragon Rider", "Holy Rider", and "Holy Rider: Return of the Pony". The Holy Rider series is based on me getting a pegasus...
The guide will be based on the art of "Diving", you will see all the tips, hints, steps involved in preforming one perfectly (its not suiciding, if thats what your thinking).
Now the screenies were suppose to be another TK session where my friends cousing got yet another Dragon! But the story couldn't finish due to a lag out. So I will just take some screenies from there (the good ones), and post it in the screen shot section (coming soon!).
Anyway, its Friday so I will be trying desperatley to finish the layout, and perhaps some of the stories. Although I do have an immense ammount of homework due on Monday (not to mension several tests, which I should study for).
Well I guess I'll be inking the art for the banner, bye!

Dragon Rider

I finally had time to do something for this site (make a story). Last week I said I would try finishing the graphics, but I had no time Saturday, and Sunday morning was consumed with Homework. Then Sunday night I had my friends Birthday to go to. Anyway I got someone to take pics of a Dragon TK (someone who Team Kills with a Dragon (rare find)) I managed to Dragon TK once, but I was unable to take pictures (I didn't have the program).
Anyway the story is called Dragon Rider my friend (who used my account) took pictures of his cousin TK'ing using a Dragon (thus he is the Dragon Rider?) you'll find out how it turns out soon enough. I still have to add words to this, and the prevous story (waay behind), but the Dragon Rider story shouldn't take too long to edit seeing how theres not as many pictures as "The Sacrafiser" story.
I had a great TK session today! But I forgot to take PICTURES! Arg I was too lazy to load the program! It was a great TK session too, I had a whole new story, and all the shots I took hit my team perfectly (All pro TK shots!). I'm mad at myself for not taking the screenshots because it was the funniest story yet. Oh well I guess I will try doing it again...
Hopefully I will be able to finish the layout by this week, and then by next week I will finish the other layout (for the extra content stuff). Anyway I gotta finish Homework!
Bye

Layout Coding Complete!

The hardest part is finally done, I finished coding the layout. The next part will be the graphics, I'm going to finish my homework fast, and hopefully I can finsih inking, and coloring the pictures. I did do a bit of the banner, (figured out the dimensions, and colors) but theres still alot to be done :(
I'm not going to be doing custom nav headers for this layout, but the next version there will sure to be some. This version will be version 1.4 (seeing how I did have a layout before the one I'm making, which is one of the default ones).
Next I'm going to have to find a host to host all those other pages (guides, screenies, info etc...) And I'm thinking of coding that layout in php (it would be alot easier). So I think I'm going to go with fragism seeing how they allow php, and they have no adds!
As for gunbound stories, I finally got my main TK account (RanterHate) ready for TK'ing (I spent some time to get gold, so I can get the TK Crew Uniform). And this week I got 2 death threats (HAHAH!) I can't believe theres losers on Gunbound that waste their day by yelling at TK'ers and say their going to kill them. One of them actually spent 2 hours saying how hes going to come on saturday in a black car with his "boys" (probably a loner with no friends), and kill me. *Sigh* people take Gunbound too seriously and miss the fact that its a GAME! Concider what I'm doing a favor to all of you (Team Killing). Perhaps my actions will finally invoke you to quit, and not get so consumed.

Anyway like I said I have to draw a picture for L.A, and I got 2 tests on Monday

Story!

I got tired of doing the layout, so I decided on making a story (the first one that will be on TK Crew). The one I made is called "The Sacrafiser" I explained about it in the previous post. The story is filled with pictures (not just text this time!), and is alot more funnier than if I were to say it by just using words! I used a program to take the screen captures and automatically save them each time I press Ctrl+P (so I don't have to always minimize, paste it into paint, then save it).
This program also has the feature to make a movie about the activity in a window (in this case Gunbound). I'm not sure If I will use this feature (as of yet), seeing how my stories only work on 4 v 4 matches. And these type of matches take 15-30 minutes to finsh! (Unless I'm doing diving), which means the filesize of the movie would be immense.
Anyway the story I made will be pretty big! (it had over 20 pictures), and is very funny. I will release it once I finish the layout (probably in 2-3 weeks), and have made 2 more stories (probably another 1-2 weeks). This means it will probably be out sometime in October.

As for updates about the layout... I made about 3 more custom pictures to go along with the banner... But I haven't yet inked, scanned, or colored the images! So there is alot to do about this. Also the layout template I made needs some work (it looks too simple), but I do have some ideas on how to change it.

Anyways I got to go and finish my English research, aswell as study for French

Layout Updates

Worked on layouts for a while. I got the whole design done, now I just have to work on the graphics. Luckily I finsihed the coding :) (to me thats the hardest part), Now I just got to do the banner, footer(small one), nav headers, and date headers :/.
The banner will take a bit seeing how I'm going to make my own gb images (hand drawn) and hopefully I'll start on this tommorow (If I finish my Homework tonight). Anyways I got alot of HW so I will be pulling an all nighter.

There were a few funny things that happened it GB, I did alot of pro shots in some the games I wen't in and my team mates still called me a noob! (Maybe it was because I was shooting them?). But I'm running out of stories to act out in the games :( I seem to be repeating the same ones over and over again, which gets pretty dull. So I guess I'll be spending some GB time thinking about some stories to make...
Making stories seemed pretty easy to do when I started TK'ing, but now its as if every time I try making a new story during a game, it ends up being a story I already made!
Over the weekend I think I only made 1 new story, which was Sacrafising to the Thor, and that one was actually made on wendsday/thursday! I suppose I could do the "Blind GB Player" story. This story is where I pretend I'm blind (And use a brail keyboard), and hit my own team because I can sense a presence there (not knowing if it is an enemie, or a team mate). I also go on to say that the text speaks to me through the speakers, and at the end of my turn I ask them if I hit something (knowing it was my team mate), and if my shoes were untied (mind you, I'm blind!). Each game ends off the same, all the players curse me, and say how blind people shouldnt play GB...

We'll anyway g2g I have Math, English, and French to do!

Update Info, and Funny Stories

Update Info
As some of you notice (mostly people I met on Gunbound). This Blog hasn't been updated that much. Well the fact is seeing how im in High School and in honours courses, I'm mostly consumed with homework and friends. The only free time I have is at night (9 o'clock) And at that time I play GB for a bit (like 30 minutes). So the only reall time I have to update this blog is during the weekend (friday - sunday).
Anyway the thing I'm sort of working on is a custom layout for this Blog. The green layout I have right now is alright, but I really need to make a layout. From then on I will find affiliats, post guides, stories, etc... Anyway speaking of stories:

Funny Stories
During the week I have had some funny (TK) encouters in Gunbound. Sadly I didn't take any screen shots (I gotta edit my system hotkeys so It allows me to take them). Anyway here are some of the funniest stories when I was Team Killing on Gunbound:

Okay in this one story I got one of my friends I met on GB to set up a Gold Room (in server 11) with the map being Cozy Tower (Side B), aswell as having the items: Team Teleport, and Dual on there. I chose sate and equiped all Team Teleports. Now alot of people when't into this room telling my friend to kick me out. My friend (who was on the opposite team, for obvious reasons) reassured them that I was a pro. I replied by saying: "They call me the Yellow Dragon for a reason you know". (Note this is an inside joke seeing how I TK, and many people call me a Noob because of this.). Anyway On the loading screen I kept on typing messages about how I would do my opening "Dive". One of the people on my team replied by saying "What the hell are you talking about?". This is when I said "Don't worry my first dive will be a 3 amd a 1/2 summersault with a backflip, and finishing with a "switch-a-roo". Now once it was my turn I drove closer and closer to the edge. Once I got to the edge and fell I right away used F1 (the hotkey for one of my team teleports) By doing this it will switch to one of my team mates (the one with lowest Hp, but seeing how this was at the start of the game they all had generally high Hp). Immediatly I dropped the "bomb" on someone else! And seeing how it was Solo mode I ruined his only life! The room immediatly howled with laughter, and I replied by saying "I'd like to thank my assistant SSJgogo13(the victims name) for all his help!" Although the rest of my team didn't find this so funny. Many people thought I was hacking! I can't believe people don't know of this "Cheat". I did it a few more times, untill I used up all my Team Teleports, during which alot of my teammates were throwing dynomite at me! It ends off with me shooting my self (suiciding).

I have soo many other funny stories! I wish I took screenies at the time, but alas I didn't. Most of these stories would be alot funnier if I had screenies along with it. A few other stories I usually do include: Nazi Leader (where I pretend I'm leading a Nazi team, and if one of my "team mates" misses I would kill them. I end this one off by suiciding, and at the same time saying "HAIL HITLA!"). The Sacrafiser (where I kill my own teammates and say its a sacrafise to the great Thor, for if I do this he will conspire to fullfill our every whim. In other words so he will grand our prayers). The Silent Noob (this is pretty simple, I basically go in the game and kill my teammates without saying a word! It really annoys people). The Yellow Dragon (I do combine this storyline with other stories, but If I'm just doing this one this is how it goes: basically I pretend I'm a Yellow Dragon (a pro in the chicken rank), and if anyone "angers me" I kill them. Its kind of complex because this story can have many turn outs. But every time at the end when we're back in the lobby I always critisize my team mates saying that "I expect more form them next time"). The Forgetful/Dumb Noob (these are 2 very different stories but are somewhat similar to eachother. In the Forgetful Noob I start out by hitting my team mate, when they reply to me by saying to hit the other team (the ones with red names) I say I read you loud and clear. But on my next turn I shoot them again and say I forgot. This basically goes on like this, but its hella funny to see your team mates try to figure out ur a Tk'er. Now the Dumb Noob starts out the same (you shoot your own team mate, he tells you not to). But on your next turn shoot him again, and when he says once again to shoot the other team, say "OH SO I SUPPOSE TO SHOOT THEM?!" Like you didn't hear him the first time. Continue doing this one).
And there you have it a list of story lines I followed for this week (and some of last).
I will post all the stories I have when I finish the layout.

Anyway Peace Out!
