Your MAHLER Friday

Day 92:


Not sure how much longer this will go on.  Gods please make this madness end!  My digital games go un-played.  The Gaming PC fell by the wayside awhile back.  I've not looked upon it's bright face in so long.  He may well be dead and cannibalized by now, for all I know.  I'm beginning to think it was a figment of my imagination; just a constructed memory.  Would I recognize it if I saw it?

If you're reading this, and not lost in the same funking desert, please send help.

Well let's see...

I have off tomorrow (just an 8-12pm) on Sun.
Sooo...

I have been enjoying Pathfinder: Rise of Runelords on my tablet.  Might play a bit of that.
I dunno really as far as anything else going though but who knows.

[Gusington]

I don't know where in the world you are CJ but enjoy regardless.

Nef is it really 92 days? That's a long drought, even for me.

It may be even longer.  I lost count.

My multi-player buddies probably think I've gone Ted Kaczynski by now.

Do what I did when my old computer died Nef, sit in front of the dead one and PRETEND like you're still playing on it. It doesn't fill the craving but I did play better in my mind than in reality.  :o

Well, i kinda feel like a heathen after listening to that and being left with the feeling of being un-cultured \m/  ...I do enjoy classical music mainly piano and violin so i'm only three quarter heathen.

I'll be continuing my Panzer Battles PBEM battle Hannut as the Germans. I've having a hard time dealing with the Somua's, my tank losses are mounting.Also playing a single player scenario in Panzer Battles Normandy, Cobra Breakout. Some Graviteam Mius Front, I've picked up the UI pretty quickly this time, going to start a campaign in preparation for the new Game releasing next week.

      I'll be doing similar things plus maybe combining board and computer gaming by maybe writing some Python functions that return boat speed or gunnery hits or something for Close Action.  That's mostly just a way to motivate me to learn some Python.

  No Python yet -- just Naval Action Beta

Lol sir slash.

Nothing so far, but maybe some bums, Wolff, and/or scourge of war Gettysburg later.

Nef,

Send Batman?  >:D

Sounds like you should watch some movies and read books and see what sparks interest there. Or troll the internet for gaming. Still, after this long you've probably tried everything.

[JasonPratt]

Inspired by Pratt and Barth's AAR of DC 1's Case White, I went back and re-played the campaign again on 'Normal' difficulty with the AI given more time to think about it's moves. I've got 2 turns left and the AI has Warsaw turned into a parking lot of troops dug-in and covered everyway possible by arty and flak. I recon I maybe a 20% chance of finishing on time.  :-[  So, some Neverwinter Nights for a break this weekend along with some drinking and swearing at my poor performance.  L:-)

As long as you pick up all the rest of the orange target cities, you don't need Warsaw. The flip side is that the Poles only need to keep Warsaw and one other orange city to totally win.

(Barth's well aware of this, so I'm not spoiling things there.)

You rock heathens. Bow down to the master, Gustav Mahler. Finale of his Symphony No. 8(Symphony of a Thousand).

I once attended a live performance of Mahler's Symphony #8 by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra under the direction of the legendary Sir Georg Solti.

I prefer the Finale to Symphony #2.  But overall, for me, Mahler's Symphonies #4 & #9 and Das Lied von der Erde are tops.

Mahler!

:)

That's actually what I've been doing.  Plus some tabletop tinkering.  Still have plenty of mini painting to resort to also. 

When my urge to play digital games eventually returns, I'll probably be ravenous in doing so after holding the reset button for so long.

I'm still in Wisconsin.  Thanks for the wishes Gus.

It's reassuring, you guys occasionally checking to see if I'm still alive and refraining from a barricaded hostage situation. 


Just gotta go see the Wizard about getting my Digital Gaming back.
