I'm doing science and I'm still alive! · 2:30am Mar 18th, 2014
Sorry for my extended absence everyone. My little netbook laptop POS broke, and I only recently got a replacement....
Which, of course, will not load FIMfic for anything. Fuck you Murphy's Law!
So I am currently in the process of transferring files from the netbook's harddrive, and borrowing a friends laptop to do 'research' AKA sneak on FIMfic and upload things I've written on word. Like this post.
As I am a closet brony, this is not a good solution for me. However, I should be able to figure out the problem with the computer soon(ish). Once I do, I will be able to get on more frequently and regularly.
As for my stories, I've been re-reading them and have decided that a rewrite is not only a good suggestion, but also a necessity. YHaY will be first, followed by De Pinnam, or, at least, that's the plan. My muse has been leaning towards the wings though...
Anyway, with YHaY it won't be a major re-write, and it will mostly be changing the arrival and the laboratory areas, giving Richard an actual reason to dislike the ponies besides 'They're different.'
As for De Pinnam, a huge change will happen, starting with a language barrier being introduced and a slight paranoia being added in to our protagonist's characterization. More on that later.
Peace Out!
Just PM if you need help with YHaY:TATO...
...which reminds me. Do you have a picture of the armor Richard arrives in?
Good to see you're still alive!

No Pic..... Sorrz... As for help, Thanks for offering. I've got most of the re-write laid out in my head though. Might try and bounce ideas off you when next I get a chance to use this laptop....
Gods sometimes I wish I wasn't a closet brony.... But alas.
And no, I will not reveal it. Ever.
You also owe me an RP, get to it!
Heh, glad to see you're finally back, at least a little.
As for the issues with the site, what Browser are you using? Cause IE is terrible in general, the mobile site it ok, and stuff like Safari and Opera aren't the best for a small (relatively speaking) site like this.
I wish there was more I could do to help, but alas, work and school are ever in the way.
This reminds me that I have stories, both real and imagined.
Oh, rewrite. I've been there, man. Or at least, having to go back and make some serious modifications. It wasn't fun.

It's a combo of a shitty computer and something this site has on it.... like pics or something.... The 'new' comp I got has extreme trouble with most sites...

Actually, I use OpenOffice. I also figured out the problem(ish). I bought a sCPU and installed it. And did a few virus scan/defragging, and quite a few other tricksies, and I mostly have it working now.
I can get on FIMfic now with much more regularity.
