That's a heck of a long vacation from here...

It's been about... 6ish Years since I last logged into Blogger.
Someone told me it was a dying thing that no one uses anymore, and then I couldn't get this off my head.
So I spent the last 20-25 minutes trying to log in, forgetting that I somehow had too many email accounts to remember which one was connected to this one.

Not that any of that is important, but I return to try and use this to write a post about Dice. Because I have no where else to keep a record of such.

SpaceBucks and FB Credits

Last week ABitLucky concluded their small competition on their game LuckySpace (hey where's that blog post I was supposed to do about LS?) which had the players all targeting for a highscore to grab the top 3 ranks to earn some SpaceBucks (SB is the ingame Cash currency to buy pretty much anything ingame).
And guess what, I was one of the top 3. And I barely played, and it seems that no one lost sleep trying to play the challenge. So this has me wondering why no one got a score higher than mine, and why no one had a score even close... But still the interesting thing is that it's all thanks to friends and other players of LuckySpace, because they were actively playing that it made all the difference in score. The games mechanics is dependent on other players playing so that they can assist you immediately... the more that play, the easier and quicker the assist are and thus you gain a leading advantage...

So if I ever get 3 days to myself where I can stay in front of the computer 24/7... then you can be sure I will do that again.
So for my luck, I got 300SB and it was added to my ingame account this morning...
On top of that, I won a TShirt and a signed Landscape image from ABitLucky... I seem to be winning a lot lately but is it as good as I expect? Remember Last year when I won a free game on Steam, only to discover that I cannot play it here because of the improper hardware... oh wait I didn't tell anyone about it. Well now you know.

Meanwhile, I also earned FaceBook Credits, from a site called... 4Loot. YES 4Loot does work.
For some reason, anyone from SL cannot seem to access the site unless they find some other means to access the site.


For this reason I will make some video tutes and links to help those that want to earn some FB Credits from the methods I found the easiest. But note that this is not some fast cash method, it takes some time, and for me it took about 2 months to earn 25FB credits because I didn't test this out everyday, just over time.

Anyway that's my update on some free stuff that I earned by doing other stuff... after all, nothing is free.
Off to go win some more movie tickets, hope I get Lucky...

Cookies: Coming Soon...

Sounds like a Movie... maybe I will make a movie about it.
My Precious...less... tickets...

I know it's Still LATE... and I'm hoping everyone does not have to wait till next year to get these, but the goal is to bake cookies for Christmas (at least no later than New Year).
As I said, everyone who voted and helped us win those movie tickets gets a batch of cookies baked by me (Erichan is busy this month due to the Christmas sales. Yes she's an Elf) even if we never got to use them... I mailed them to my sister who was just in time to enjoy watching "In Time" just before the tickets expired.
Nearest... nearly 2 hours away...

So here's some photos of the tickets. Next time I hope we get to win tickets to watch a movie closer to our town... Yes I really wish they were clearer early on about where we can use them, otherwise I would have let my sister pick them up in Colombo rather than have them sent all the way up to Kandy just to be sent back down. Oh well, can't blame them since I didn't ask.
Erichan was disappointed...

But there's a good question I have to ask... why the bloody hell can't we ever get some good English movies up here at theaters. The last movie they had in English that was decently good was many months ago for about 4 or 5 days only. Someday, I'll probably have to run my own mini-theater with a wider range of movies... (probably old B&W movies that no one else likes)

Because we Won some Movie Tickets

OK I know this is late... (Please don't Eat me) ...but guess what? I won some Movie Tickets! Yes that Survive on an island competition I managed to be the runner up.
SO THIS MEANS, Everyone who Voted for me (I already took down the names) will get COOKIES!

No seriously, Me and Erichan will bake cookies for these nice people (unless she says no, then I will alone bake them)
BAD NEWS, I'm going to take a few weeks before I get started, because I still have stuff to sort out.

Anyway, none are forgotten AND THANKYOU ALL who VOTED FOR ME!

Also those out of the country, yes we STILL have not figured out how to reward you guys. No I cannot airmail cookies.

Facebook Discussion Boards

So by now all the active Fan Page owners, application page devs, and almost none of the non-page moderators know that Facebook will be removing the Discussions area from all Pages. Their reason being that it to help users interact better with the pages and applications by posting on walls.......
The Message all FB page Mods and Admins would see

Personally, I feel they are just stupid for doing that since Wall posts will just get thrown to the bottom.
Oh by the way, I'm a moderator on some FB Pages (well duh' RV is the guy who moderate's his fan page) and I've seen how stupid it is when any Mod/admin/dev has to respond to questions thrown out into the wall... THE SAME BLOODY QUESTION that was asked SO MANY TIMES on the wall... Now imagin when someone comes, looks at the wall and then cannot find that question and POOF they post on the wall the same question we have seen.

I'm telling you FB is going to have a lot more people hating them...

Now for an update... because there was only one discussion area that I really treasured which is now not used. Those that know, know that I was pretty active in the FarmWars discussion area and had one little thread that showcased my "FarmWars" parody fan art.
To view it one last time before the month is over, go here --> http://www.facebook.com/topic.php?uid=8398862793&topic=3719
This link will Expire on the 31st of October 2011 because Facebook will remove it...

On the OTHERHAND if you cannot see that link because it has expired (assuming you are reading this now that is after the 31st)... I have posted that entire thread below.
Cheers.



Farm Wars... FanArt...?
Displaying all 10 posts.


Hi to people in the Netherlands...

That's right, I'm saying HI to all the people in the Netherlands... well mainly the ones who are reading this page. Seems like I've caught their attention and had a lot of visits from them. And that's nice... Hi to the Germans who are reading this.

This is just a random blog post because I was trying to post up something else...

3 Survival Foods for 3 Days

3 Survival Foods for 3 Days - A Keells Super competition

So today I was looking up about movie show times and ticket prices. Why? Oh come on, you already know, I don't have to blog about it again... oh wait I didn't blog it did I? OK later I will explain about Eri-chan and all... someday.

Anyway I came across the Keells Super Facebook page and they give away sometimes free tickets.
Today I found that they have a competition and are giving away 6 tickets. WOW I want them all, yes I will share, promise, or else a certain someone will rip me in two.
How it goes is that there are 10 items listed (in image form, no text of the names), from those 10 we must pick 3 items to survive on for 3 days while stranded on an island. We got to be a bit creative, and at the same time explain why we chose them. And I highly doubt there's any rum on that island to use.

So below, is my Entry, which details how I would survive for 3 days on 3 of their 10 listed items.
Trust me, I'm not good with these and maybe my info is a bit wrong but considering I'm one of the people out there who gets low to no pay, going to the movies for free is really one way to enjoy an evening with people. So if you feel I deserve a vote, Like my post/reply on the Facebook page. (HERE, this one...)



A number of the items listed would benefit anyone who needs to survive for 3 days - but lets face it, it could be more than 3 days if not for sea-turtles mate.
But since only 3 items can be picked, it's really hard to choose.

These are the 3 items I think that I could most benefit and survive with for around 3 days based on nutritious facts and how well they can be rationed and under the assumption its 2 nights but 3 full days. Provided the Others have not eaten any of my 3 items.

Fontana Orange Juice
★ To keep Hydrated, but 1 box/carton would last an estimated 3 days or less.
★ a source of Vitamin C
★ Protects against Inflammation, Improves Blood Pressure and Lowers Cholesterol (but not immediately)
★ also Includes Other Nutrients like potassium, thiamine, phosphorus, folate, vitamin B6 and flavonoids
¤ Not recommended if suffering from a Sore Throat. Seriously, it can be painful.

Happy Cow Cheese
★ Can last about 5 days or less since there's no fridge on this island.
★ 100g is about enough per serving.
★ Contains Vitamins A, B12 and D, has protein, a source of Calcium, Includes Phosphorus and Zinc.
㋛ I love cheese, I'd pray I catch some fresh fish, then try to make an open fire. "Grilled Fish Cheese on a stick". Sort of.
¤ It may finish sooner because it's Tasty.

SPC Baked Beans
★ Lasts an estimated 2-3 days if rationed/stored correctly (also depends on the can size).
★ You will feel Full for much longer.
★ High in protein, Low in fat, Rich in fiber
★ Can be eaten uncooked. Lasts less days if cooked.
¤ Not recommended for long term use due to amounts of sodium in canned baked beans - this may Vary by brand and type.
㋛ My least favorite of the selection unless I mix them with something I like, but it's a eat or die survival situation. Maybe I'd use the cheese with this...
¤ May cause some gassy noises, probable entertainment for the 3 days.

Why did I not pick any of the other items on the list?
You can ask me and find out later when I post up about it on my blog (after the competition). I do have good reasons why I wouldn't pick the others, although I like to pick some of the others, but then I feel I may only last a single day.

Click here to see the why I didn't pick the other 7 items... (Link not yet available, coming soon)

Was RV Lazy for not blogging?

As stated in the title, NO I'm NOT LAZY! ok maybe I'm a bit.
I've been very busy lately doing... I cannot mention just yet. I'll tell you later. But I have been writing blog posts about LuckySpace, The Sims Social, Zombie Misfits, Wonderputt, even a site called 4Loot. Where are they? They are half done and saved in my blogger account until I click on the publish buttons. But all of that I'll be posting up later.
Right now I am still debating on working on the "13 Days to Halloween" segment that I try to do each year, and it's already 4 Days passed, meaning I just may have to skip out on this year also.
So in a way I will confirm it now, There Is No Inpachi Rising 2 coming out this year. Since there are no new models completed, and the old completed models still have a lot of bugs in their animations (Man-eating Treasure Chest seems to have a very Mr.Fantastic stretch to it's tongue). Even the costume I had planned 11 months before to build this year had not begun.


Anyway, Right now I have to post my most important blog post for today... It's my entry for a competition. Read it after this post.... assuming you read blog posts in chronological order like no one else does...

The ACHE Stall

Yes I've been very busy in the past Week. Right now I managed to get a little time just to post up some random stuff while on my trip out of town. I haven't had a chance to play any game because I'd been running up and down from the Exhibition and back to other Work and so on and so on in the previous week, while doing a lot of other work during this week.
I did however play a bit of Pokemon Tower Defense, but I'll get to talking about that later on because it isn't what I expected it to be.
But for now, check out that stall that ACHE has... it's a work of art. Ok fine it isn't that exciting but it took quite a while to write all the measurements down before they could construct it.

Go check the M.E. Arts Blog to see what was built based on what I designed for the Exhibition.
