SATURDAY 1239

As of 9 minutes ago. Stupid piece of shit stayed on 0 percent, and now it won't load. Screw ABC for having shitty-arse servers that can't cope with traffic.

SATURDAY 8:23

Oooh, numbers.

Anyway, I'm not in a great mood. I'm pissed off because I fucked up 7 Days, badly.
Points in note:
  • It's Gordon Walker, not Gordon Lightfoot *facepalm*
  • It takes 12 hours at the most to drive between Lincoln, Nebraska (where I'm guessing the Roadhouse is) and Bismarck, North Dakota (which I'm guessing is the closest major city to Cold Oak), avoiding seasonally closed roads and toll gates. Not 15 hours. *headdesk*
  • You can't make a fuel tank explode just by shooting it out with a rifle. *double headdesk*

I spent 2 hours on the SuperWiki looking up exorcisms as well, and it's freaking unpronounceable. Plus, the translator's notes make it really hard to read. It's annoying, but it's all I've got to work with.

Lastly, Ramon's lines at the end of Part 1 of the Alternate Cold Oak Incident won't translate properly into Spanish. Apparantly, they don't have words for 'shit' and 'fuck' in their language. And I still can't figure out the squiggle-over-the-n thing for Senor - Ramon uses it twice.

And I can't find someone to translate it properly. ARGH!

Not to mention that Inow have two versions to type, and one has the aforementioned 'no explosion' issue.

But my updates are due in 3 hours, so can I complain too much? I think not.

Later, I found out that it was traffic. ABC = sucky n00bs.

TUESDAY 1206

I take it back! It is working! Praise be to all higher beings! *bowing and trying to sing in Hindi and Arabic at the same time*

TUESDAY 1157

Remote blogging from TTG Library.

Just got El Superbeasto comic, and a coupla Sin Cities as well. I'm looking forward to reading - granted El Superbeasto = gratitious nudity, but...well, I can live with it. Now i know what RZ meant by the movie edging towards an X rating in the initial stages - I guess Disney animators get bored with cutsie little animals eventually.

Still no luck on Find815 - maybe they don't have Shockwave here. That SUCKS. I need to get onto that site! AAARGH!

I'll go check my email instead. That'll tell me if it's these computers.

MONDAY 1854

I'm going to TTG tomorrow - I have to see if my card's still valid and book a computer. If I can, I'll go again on Wednesday so I can go through Find815 and FlyOceanicAir again. If not, I'll sort it out tomorrow and finish up Wednesday.

I'm still waiting for Roger to reply to my message. I hope I got the number right.

In other news, I'm trying to finish a couple of oneshots spawned by 7 Days - Fundamental Mysteries of Cars and The Eight Rules of the Winchester Family. The second one's a bit short, but the perfect oneshot length, and the first is a bit long for a oneshot, but it works.
