Forced Hiatus and Other Matters. · 11:05am Dec 23rd, 2013
Well, I finished my finals! Hooray! So excited to get back to writing!
Well...
Funny story. See, I was packing up my dorm because I decided to transfer to another school (long story, irrelevant) so my sister came over to help me move out. While I went down to get a dolly, My sister finished packing things up... and she packed the charger for my laptop. I didn't notice until we got home... after we put the boxes in storage. As I'm writing this, I have like, 20% battery life left. When this dies, I'll only have access to Fimfic via my Vita. Not ideal for writing, and I work in Google Docs anyway. So, until I can go back to the storage unit, I kinda can't write. But, I suppose this is kinda a good thing for me, as I can just relax and spend time with family. And then ignore them by playing old video games.
I will definitely have my charger back by Saturday, then I'll pretty much be writing non-stop. But maybe I need this little break anyway. I've been a little stuck in some of my ideas.
Anyway, before I go, I thought I'd just share some thoughts about the new episode and the site.
First: Power Ponies. I won't be doing an episode review this week, so I'll just get to the nitty-gritty.
It was... alright.
By no means was it bad. It just wasn't... I'm not sure really. It had a pretty good message. I like it when Spike isn't shut out to the sidelines, so the fact that they addressed this is good. The episode was innovative and whimsical. The villain was pretty awesome. I just don't know what it was, but I just didn't get a 'great' episode feeling from it. And Flutterhulk was... meh. Just... meh.
7.5/10
The user page update. I'm going to do something rare and agree with those who complain about it. It.... kinda sucks. I mean really. Knighty, why? It wasn't broken, it was fine, everything was fine. Now it's... meh. I'll fix it more later.
I'd say more, but I'm starting to push my limits. So, I'll just say have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday. Hopefully, I'll see you before the New Year.
Aww. Well. I will find other means of contacting you and harassing you instead of Skype. Maybe I should edit Long Road to Friendship while your gone.
Naw. Probably not. After Christmas, maybe.
1638982 Oh yes, about that. Cerulean Voice has edited all the chapters LRtF.... sooooo, you're off the hook for that one. Unless you really want to.

>implying he got all the errors
I'll be the judge of that.

>Implying I/Albino thinks I'm perfect
You should totally go over everything as well. I'm mostly just a grammar tecchy, but you may have experience in other areas. I don't think I missed anything, but you never know.

Is Skype still an option?
If you need the papers for disowning your sister I can hook you up. I kid, I kid, but seriously enjoy your break.
I at first hated the user page update, but I'm getting used to it. HATE the new groups module, though.
Just about everyone so far has said the same thing about Power Ponies: Not bad but also not good; just... meh! It's sort of like unseasoned porridge oats - edible but completely bland and pointless.
Merry Christmas to you too! Looking forward to your stories!

If you are not Jesus Christ, you cannot be an editor.
Wait . . .
I usually go over things if they were done by someone else anyway. It's just what I do.
Go enjoy yourself Alby, it's not like we are going anywhere. Happy Hearts and Hooves 'n all dat staph.
