Microsoft Employees Disrupt Wii U Best Buy EventsRemember how Nintendo was showcasing some of their E3 games at participating Best Buy stores around the country? Well, apparently Microsoft employees have been hired to go to these events and preach about the Xbox One and make comments like "why would you buy a outdated Wii U when the Xbox One is right around the corner?"
However, the employees aren't getting what they hoped for. Most customers just start bashing the Xbox One in response. Seriously, Microsoft, the people attending these Best Buy Wii U events are people who are intimately familiar with the crap you pulled at E3. They ain't takin' your shit.
At first I thought this might just be a case of one really loyal Microsoft employee taking matters into his own hands (especially since the original source was /v/), but reports have come in from numerous Best Buy's around the country that indicate many Microsoft employees have ambushed the demo lines trying to persuade people to switch to the Xbox One.
Since so many reports have com

Please Pants Responsibly (Paper Notebooks FTW)

There are two ways to write a novel.  Plotting (you make an outline, a plan, a roadmap if you will, and then you sit down and write it) and pantsing (you write "by the seat of your pants, throwing caution to the wind).  So when I get asked if I'm a plotter or a pantser, I'm all like er, uh, hold on, let me?  Pantser?  I think?  But I kind of, um, do planny things?
And it gets kind of awkward because in these inarticulate moments I have managed to confuse everyone including myself. And probably spilled a drink.
In recent discussions, however, I've had a bit of a revelation, silly as it is. I've realized that I -- like many writers -- am a plotter/pantser hybrid.  And perhaps what I'm doing is something we could call Pantsing Responsibly.  And, maybe, just maybe, I could share some of my responsible pantsing tips with other writers. Starting with paper notebooks.
Anyone can find a notebook.  If there isn't alread
The Used Game ParadigmOver the course of this past generation I've been watching the video game market react to the way it's been forced to deal with increasing changes. I've come out against used game sales and even written a journal about boycotting GameStop because (like most people at the time) I believed they were the root cause of all the problems the video game industry has. But that's something I don't believe now as intently as i did then. From where I sit, piracy and used games sales are a problem, but not in the way game companies want us to believe that they are.
Used games are a good thing for consumers. We get to try games out, and if we don't like what we see or finish it early, we trade it in and try another title instead. It's a very good system for us since video game rentals are much harder to come by. Most video rental stores in America have gone extinct and outside specific Red Box Kiosks there aren't a lot of places for consumers to rent video games. The exception, of course, being thr

SPIKE updatesJust thought I'd share with you guys some updates on the progress of finishing my "SPIKE" novel.
A lot of people have asked me how it's going, when it will be published and stuff. I really appreciate getting asked these things because it shows that people are actually interested in my writings, and that it just such a great feeling :aww:
I've got two news for you guys today though: one bad news and one good news. Let's start with the bad news.
I haven't finished writing SPIKE yet.
And I honestly don't know when it will be finished - which oddly enough brings us to the good news:
I've made a new, major decision in the SPIKE story that I think a lot of you will be happy to hear. As usual I don't want to spoil too much, but there is a part in the story where Spike and Sam are separated from each other for quite a long while. At first I was planning on only writing from Spike's point of view, like, what he's experiencing during this separation period. I figured that since he's the main cha

Hellooooo! It was about time I changed my journal entry... so that's why I'm here! :XD: Tomorrow is the last day I go to college to go look for an exam result and after that winter breaaaaaak!! :dance: but I'll have to keep studying so... :cries: luckily I could "promote" a couple of translation subjects so that leaves me with two final exams... I don't wannaaaaaaaaa!! :sniff: jjaja
By the way, this subject I'm going to tomorrow is a really cool one which I loved; during the whole semester I've been writing short stories thanks to this subject, and I learnt a whole lot of great stuff that I want to start using in my little story :heart: I also got much incentive from my professor because it seems that he really liked a lot the stories I presented every class :3 that made me enjoy writing for every class :heart: I've been thinking about uploading some of the stories I've written, they're all in Spanish so only people who talk Spanish will be able to enjoy them (and those who learn Spanish or know of it XD if you do then give it a shot at them!) but as always I'd like to know your opinion, would you be interested in reading them? If several of you answer yes then I'll give the green light to the first ones that I wrote (one is a fanfiction of alttp XD)
In other news... soon it will be :iconemilianohc: and my 6th anniversary :love: and I've been going crazy thinking about what could I get him after he went crazy getting me an IPod Nano and a Wacom tablet *yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay I have a tableeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!!* so due to this circumstances... what did I do? I bought him a Playstation 2 with the money I had saved for the Wii :3 which my uncle gave me as a present ( I don't know why but we ended up giving each other's presents before time XD) so we've already been playing Tales of the Abyss, Final Fantasy XII and he's been playing a soccer game (dunno which XD) so if you have any suggestions they are most welcome! :boogie:
As to drawings, I'm in the process of coloring the drawing of Midna that I finished inking (the sketch is somewhere in the gallery XD) so she should be over here soon XD after that I want to do some drawing for coloring with my cute tablet :heart: which I still didnt try out because all of the college stuff I had to do TT-TT
Wooooooooooo I've told you too much stuff XDDD jajaja I hope everyone's great!!
See yaaaaaaaaaaa!! :glomp:

Holaaaaaa! Ya era hora de que cambiara de journal así que... por eso estoy acá! :XD:
Mañana es el último día que voy a la facu a buscar una nota y después recesooooooo!! :dance: igual voy a tener que seguir estudiando así que... :cries: por suerte pude promocionar un par de materias de traducción lo que me deja con dos finales para rendir... no tengo ganaaaaaaaaaaas!! :sniff: jajaj
Por cierto, la materia que tengo mañana es una muy copada que me encantó; durante todo el cuatrimestre estuve escribiendo cuentos gracias a esta materia, y aprendí un montón de cosas buenísimas que quiero empezar a aplicar en mi cuentito :heart: recibí tambien mucho incentivo de parte del profesor porque al parecer le gustaron mucho los cuentos que fui entregando :3 eso hizo que me gustara mucho escribir para cada clase :heart: Estuve pensando en subir algunos de los cuentos que escribí, están todos en español así que solamente los de habla hispana los van a poder apreciar (y los que sepan hablar en español XD) pero como siempre quisiera saber su opinión, les interesaría leerlos? Si varios responden que sí entonces lo doy para adelante con los primeros que escribí X3
En otras news... dentro de poco :iconemilianohc: y yo cumplimos seis años de novios :love: y me estuve rompiendo el marote pensando en qué podía comprarle de regalo después de que él se zarpara regalándome un IPod Nano y una Tableta Wacom *sisi genteeeeeeeeeee!! Tengo tabletaaaaaaaaa!!* así que frente a esas circumstancias... qué hice? Le compré con la plata que tenía ahorrada para la Wii (que me al final me la regaló mi tío) una Playstation 2 :3 (no sé porqué pero nos terminamos dando los regalos antes de tiempo jajaj) así que ya estuvimos viciando con Tales of the Abyss, Final Fantasy XII y él con un juego de fútbol (ni sé cual es jojo) Así que si nos tienen alguna sugerencia de algún buen juego para la play son bienvenidas! :boogie:
En cuanto a dibujos, estoy en proceso de pintado el dibujo de Midna que terminé de entintar (el boceto ta por ahí en la galería) así que pronto tendía que estar por acá XD después de eso quiero ver de hacer algún dibujo para pintarlo con mi tabletita mononaaaaa :heart: que todavía no la pude estrenar por estar con todas las cosas de la facultad TT-TT
Buenoooooooooooo ya conté mucho XDDD jajaja espero que todos estén bien!!
Besoooooooooooooooooooooooooosssss!!! :glomp:
