"The future must know where you've been."


Good morning, by the way! I'm doing some math to see if I can buy dedicated server hosting to play game with my friend.

@Another Movie Addict: LOL. I know you've thought about it before, but you should try videoing your games or something :3

@0v7: So the gaming you'd be doing would be a regular, ongoing thing, thus the dedicated server? There are some pretty cheap options out there (don't know the specifics but know they exist)

This is exactly

It's such a fun game and it helps that we can play off each other very well.

what you think it is.

@0v7: lol! I suppose you have a point concerning the classic monsters. They appeal to different things than the newer more modern monsters I suppose

What's your favorite Monster?

@Another Movie Addict: group dynamics are half of it, I think. I was in a group once that was basically fractured down the middle by strong personalities and perspectives. It didn't last long.

@Wildfire: I found a service that I'm considering - I've actually used it before, although, it was for a different thing entirely. I'm trying to calculate how much bandwidth I need for month based on how much this game uses per second.... to compare to the bandwidth allocation for this service per month. ^u^;;

My favorite monster is probably vampires?? I think? I'm not sure if mad scientists count lol

I can imagine. We all have pretty strong personalities, but we're respectful to each other.

@0v7: So you just named vampires and mad scientists - I would count these as "classic" Halloween type monsters, but apparently you don't. What do you consider to be classic monsters, then.

That sounds like far too much math for me right now. Good luck with that


@Another Movie Addict: Respect was not high on their lists

@Wildfire: Are they classic monsters? I think of Frankenstein and like, mummies covered in paper as classic zombies lol
This math is certainly making my head spin.

Well that sucks, it ruins the game.

Well, I would consider them to be classic monsters, but also the mummy and frankenstein's monster, etc.

Yes, it definitely made things less fun than they could have been. There are reasons that group didn't last long.

@0v7: I'd consider these the more modern monsters: Jason, Freddie Krueger, Chucky, Gremlins, etc., so I guess for me "classic" and "modern" monsters are defined by their time-frame, somewhere around the 80s onward/back??

@Wildfire: Ohhh!! That makes more sense - I've been thinking about the past 30 years haha
Also, I figured out all my math stuff. @u@

@0v7: LOL! I was just confused by your choices because our perspectives were apparently so different! So the monsters from the last 30 years or so are -how did you describe them?- boring?

Congrats getting the math figured out :3

@Wildfire: Most are stripped down monsters, honestly - I like having depth to my characters! I think really modern interpretations of monsters are cool, ones that make them human I guess? They aren't necessarily boring, they're just plain - which can be good for some people!

My math was basically turning gigabytes per month to megabytes per second @_@

@0v7: I understand completely. It's partly why I don't usually like the modern-genre of "horror" films - they're just gore and no depth.

LOL - better you than me with the math - especially at this time of the morning. I'm glad you got it worked out though

@Wildfire: I prefer ambient horror honestly - blood n guts is gross and boring, in my opinion. I like surreal-type horror stuff too!

@0v7: It sounds like we're pretty much on the same page. It's still a genre I don't tend to watch a lot of, though.


I'm tired. Time seems to be doing strange things today - it seems both earlier and later than it really is. It's weird.

I quit Voltra. Read my profile.

@0v7: Oh, those kinds of days are not much fun.
I think the weather is affecting me - it's overcast and rainy, making for a good "stay in PJs and read a book or watch movies" type of day
