Skye

Homestuck Adventure Game Mystery Girl is so fucking adorable.

Pokemon X and Y, DOTA 2, GTA V, The Stanley Parable, and Fire Emblem: Awakening.

And just to confuse people after putting a random picture in the Instant and Moment thread, I'm making a text post with no pictures in this one! I AM SUCH AN ANARCHIST ... Alright, fine, here's TF2 birds.

Real!Skye [spoiler2]Name: Real!Skye Aliases: Jack Abilities/Powers: Being English, scarf-related topics, stealth, stealth games, things related to stealth, things vaguely associated to stealth, immunity to sugar rushes, incredible luck Personality: Usually quiet and stoic, tends to keep to himself. The quiet demeanor is not to be confused with nervousness or frailty; he is very self-confident and not afraid to stand out in a crowd. Does his best to be polite, although a low emotional intelligence gives mixed results. May be autistic, but has never bothered to find out because "I'd have to sign paperwork n' shit." When attempting to be more humorous (joking with friends, performing a show or a cast, etc.) he can flip his personality to much louder and energetic. Bio: Skye is a white English male adult. Skye holds the record for probably being the most generic person here. Affiliations: None. Politics are dumb. Other: Does not actually wear a scarf that much, but running jokes are the best jokes.[/spoiler2] Nuzlocke!Skye [spoiler2]Name: Nuzlocke!Skye Aliases: Skye Poppyson, That Kid from Pallet Town Abilities/Powers: Pokemon Training, red eyes, surprising maturity for his young age, familiar with a variety of Kanto Pokemon, can speak with Pokemon Personality: A mild-mannered boy from Pallet Town who is afflicted with red eyes and a strange condition which causes Pokemon to fade away in battle. Despite the obvious dangers of a journey with this condition, his Pokemon are supporting of him and have placed their confidence in him. He is an adept strategist and a great mediator for his team, although this comes from the confidence others have place din him more than his own (of which he has little, due to his lack of experience.) He seeks to find out what caused his condition. Bio: A young boy with thick hair, who always wears a red hooded coat (even in the middle of a summer in Kanto.) Affiliations: Anything that opposes Team Rocket. Other: Eventually moves to Johto for unknown reasons.[/spoiler2] BFNY!Skye [spoiler2]Name: BFNY!Skye Aliases: Insane!Skye Abilities/Powers: Too insane to predict, otherworldly powers, unparalleled at sneaking and stabbing, crazy prepared Personality: The "what if?" story of Battle for New York explored what would happen if Skye started to blur the lines between fantasy and reality - which resulted in him going homicidal and aiming to kill anyone the voices told him to. It's unknown if the voices were merely his fractured imagination, the real voices of fictional beings, or perhaps the hauntings and the plans from another unknown assailant. Skye was successful in misdirecting other New York survivors and nearly succeeded in killing one, but was slain by Idiot Cube's BFNY self (who, ironically, was also going insane due to external voices.) Bio: A young man with dark hair, always wearing a black hooded coat (with the hood always up) and leather gloves and boots. Runes and talismans are worn on his coat, and a black insignia marked one of his hands. Affiliations: Unknown; the voices were either his own insanity, or they were real and their source is yet to be known. Other: BFNY!Skye remains as one of the competent New York survivors, managing to survive for a considerable time, avoiding detection from several others, and managing his own base of operations with crude but effective defences. Nonetheless, as a villain, his downfall was inevitable.[/spoiler2] More will probably be added later. Maybe. pfth

I really hope they give an overhaul to MvM's matchmaking. There are way too many "in-progress" games that are at Wave 1, way too many games where nobody speaks English, and way too many games where people flame you if you don't go what THEY want you to go as. Look, if we have an Engy, a Medic, a Scout, and two meaty classes, I think a Sniper or Spy is good to take down those giant robots. And of course, I've done four tours already and I'm getting lectured by people who haven't done a single one yet. Yeesh. At least in DOTA2, I can report people for being arsey, but in TF2, I just have to suck it up. Also I wish the next MvM tour has lots of short missions as opposed to a few long ones. I'm so unmotivated to play MvM because it's like at least an hour and a half or something, and that's assuming everything goes to plan, which it never does. In Expert mission cases, it can be twice that amoutn. I'm not exactly a busy man, but that's a lot of time to sink into it. /rant

Got my initial MMR after 10 games. [spoiler2]3496[/spoiler2] yay a number i guess thats probably goodish

I chose the guy and my clothing is as close as possible to Red's original clothing (red hat, yellow bag, blue jeans, etc.)

FUCKING HELL Nobody talk to me for a while, I'm genuinely pissed off. >:|

I'll admit, I don't think I'm ever topping this. This is my nirvana. Everything else beyond this is going to pale in comparison, like getting a titwank and then trying to recreate it at home with two balloons. I'll also admit I'm a wee bit tired n' tipsy right now.

SOMEONE WHO DOESN'T HAVE DISHONORED?! nah but srsly its cool mann eeeeeee someone used my title

Oh god, the rage over the Short Circuit. Oh god, the rage over the Short Circuit. I haven't used it enough or fought against it enough to justify whether it is really OP or not, but I just love that every Soldier and Demo main is getting sand in their vaginas because they forgot what the 3 button does. It's beautiful. I'm baking crumpets for this shit.

I lost my shit at "they would get, like, half-chubs..."

Nice in theory, but my initial reaction was "bollocks to that." I specifically use the Short Circuit now to screw over the people who keep doing that "let's just all hide behind cover, charge up a Kritzkrieg, and hold down M1 on the nearest guy with a launcher of some kind" thing. It's nice to spice things up and force 6v6 wannabes to rub together a few of those brain cells they haven't lost over the difficult decision of what cereal to have for breakfast yesterday man that all sounded very vindictive sorry i dont like dying to critical rockets okay

The Diamondback is fantastic, although the ability to simply have a critical hit on demand whenever I want by displaying a basic bit of aiming skill makes the Ambassador still my favorite. The Diamondback is still a nice unlockable for active Spies, and I imagine it's excellent for pubstomps where people never hear anything behind them. And hey, at least it's overpowered in a cool way, unlike our old friend Mr. Enforcer.

Should I try and collect all the Festives or all the Stranges? Festives look cool but are just the base quality, while Stranges are impressive but are more expensive (especially the rare crate ones.) And no, not Strange Festives. EDIT: If Stranges, are basic Botkillers "snazzy" enough to merit them? We're talking Silver or Rust, not Gold or Blood.

BEST CHRISTMAS EVER

My favorite courier is Alphid, but I have a soft spot for cute bugs. Runner up is, of course, Itsy. As for HUD, Valor. Yeah, everyone has it, but damn it's still gorgeous. Can't decide on an announcer.

hey you should get dishonored have i ever mentioned how much i like it

Are you ready for a Christmas miracle? If I see anyone without a copy of Dishonored in their Steam library by tomorrow, I'm going to flip so many goddamn tables. remember when i did that

(No idea. According to the blog post, it is a January event which will focus on the Chinese New Year and/or Spring.)

New character announced. And maybe a new stage. [spoiler2]It's the best princess. [/spoiler2]

It's another imposter. I don't remember the fail in question, and I can't recall any time I've ever typed "ROFL" or even typo'd it. That's the second time now, after the TF2 imposter. Weird. Skye isn't a common name, is it? Oh, and I had a great game as Outworld Devourer. Pure damage is boss.

Starbomb is out for digital downloading now. Along with listening online, of course. Right here. It's pretty damn fantastic.
