My new favorite person...
As the title suggests I have found a new favorite person. It currently escapes me as to who the old favorite person was, but if my new one is of any indication, then my previous one would have been David Hasselhoff or Burt Reynolds.

Lady Liberty anyone?
Check out my new toy. My cousin Robin bought it for me today at the Liberty Island gift shop. It's a sort of a pen light I suppose. I played with it for quite some time at the shop and she was watching and got it for me as a surprise after I put it back. The lights blink at an unbelievable rate of speed (we're talking epileptic seizure causing fast!) You have to appreciate that.

Glimpses of our future together
Greetings. I have decided to make it known publicly that I will eventually be your supreme overlord and ultimate ruler. I will reign over the mortals with an iron fist, and all infidels who oppose me shall be crushed in the first wave.
As you can see below I have been working on sketches for my new cyborg body. This body is the key to my ascendence to the throne of Earth and beyond.
Eventually, once I am in total control, I will start recruiting generals to have their bodies altered and enhanced with titanium plating and advanced circuitry. Your prime directive will be to enforce my laws without regard for morals or ethics. I will be your morals and ethics from that point forth.
I have chosen to relay this information to you now since plans have already been put into motion and my cyborg body has already entered the first phase of production. We are currently working on the prototype, which we will test on a monkey and maybe a small defenseless bunny rabbit and/or a cuddly koala who only wanted to chew on eucaliptus leaves.
As you can see I am well on my way to becomeing your complete and total rutheless overlord.
Thank you. That is all.

A penny for your thoughts...

Have some random questions:
1. If you could be stranded in one place, with one person, where and who would your choices be?
2. Would you rather be blind, or deaf?
3. Is the glass half empty, or is it full of chicken eggs?
Amuse me in the comments section. That's where my answers will be.

Favorite Episode
this tasty chapter in the next generation series was peak performance
the main story revolve around the battle simulation where Riker takes command of an inferior ship. With the guile of Riker, Worf, and alitte improvising from young Wesley Crusher. They do a bang up job.
but its Data's stratajema game that is so amusing to me

Last nights happenings
So I was minding my own business last night when I get this call. It's some old dude that says he's the king. And I'm like 'what? Burger King?' and he gets quiet for a minute and then he yells 'NO! Not Burger King you doofus, THE King!'. 'GOD! Yo suuuup...' 'No!' he growls, 'Not God either, I am the king of the country.'
At this point I figure this guy is just joshin me so I decide to play along. 'Oh ok, ... KING, what uhh, what's up?'
'Not much', he says. 'Just wondering if you could do something for me.'
Great, I don't even know this guy and hes asking me for favors. Well, I decide to here him out. 'Ok, ok, whatta ya want?'
Just as I say that I feel this tingle and suddenly I'm in a castle like place and I hear a voice in my head, 'Go forth and destroy a slime.'
So I totally go forth, and I've got this armor and a sword so I'm not like naked and helpless out there. Anyhoo, yeah so I go outside and start looking for this slime.
It doesn't take long, I just sorta walk back and forth between two squares right near the castle. I did this so in case I get hurt in the fight I don't have far to go and wont risk getting snuck up on before I can get some medical help.
But, yeah, a slime just pops out of a bush and I'm like 'Woah, sup slime.' The slime doesn't say much but I hear a couple bubbles and a squeak.
So I hit him with my sword and it hurts him pretty bad and then he hits me with like some slime or something and it stings but I'm ok. I hit it again and it just like disolves into the ground. It must have eaten some dudes wallet cause there was some gold on the ground when it disappeared.
Now I am back home, safe and sound. True story.

Ode to Fire Emblem
I have not played this game, but my friend called me up to tell me that every time she played it a character, Marcus, made her think of me. I guess I will have to pick up a copy of this game to see my digitized RPG self. If anyone can find one of the portrait pictures of this Marcus fellow I would be interested to see what the fuss is about.

Yeah, so I had this brilliant idea for a new program. I just need to sit down and get started on it. The basic idea of it is a client/server D&D application. Ok, ok, I know this is only my second post and so far both have been about D&D, but this is D&D AND programming so it's cool. Well, it's actually pretty fucking nerdy, but it's cool to me.
Anyhoo, the goal of this project is to close the gap between table-top D20 gamers. The way the program will work is like this:
The DM (Dungeon Master) starts up his copy and clicks the "Run As Server" checkmark. Cool, now he gives the players his IP address. They start their copies and click on the connect button. They put in the DMs IP address and go.
Once connected the application will have built in voice chat, text chat, and a battle grid with a background that can be changed by the DM. The grid will also serve as a whiteboard. Each person connected will be assigned a color and thye can mark on the battle grid as if they were using a marker.
Each person will also have a 50x50 icon representing their character on a battle grid. They will also have a 75x200 character image, viewable by accessing their personal profile. The profile also stores all their gear and equipment. They select which items are currently equipped and even list what spells (if any) they have for the day.
All of this information is stored on both the player side and the DM (server) side. This way when a player connects it can verify the characters information and secretly let the DM know if there are any changes and what the changes were. This just keeps the players honest.
The program should come with a generic set of "character" images as well as some of the more common monsters. It should also have the ability to expand this information either through upgrade 'monster packs' or 'character packs' or by the DM and players creating their own things.
Among many other things this would need, it should also output all textual information to a log file so the DM can review it at his/her leasure.

alright, so begins Experiment301, because what the world needs is another group blog. after much deliberation about what the thing should look like, we decided just to get it rolling. expect many changes.
let me point you to the blog that started all the groupy goodness: Real World... Blogger Style. some of us are former members, so it's only fair to give credit where credit is due.
one bit of warning: if nerds bother you, turn away now.
