We haven’t updated Fobcraft for like, half a year, so it was pretty much dead. Typingmania was down because of x10hosting’s policy of suspending accounts if they’re not accessed for 2 weeks…
However, I’ve been working on a game programmed in Java. It’s a defense game based on the Korean mmorpg Ragnarok Online, and inspired by Twilight Frontier’s Patchcon. I’ve actually been working on this project since two years ago, in the process taking months-long breaks and never got much done. But I’ve decided to finish soon. In fact, it’s already playable, just that there are many bugs to fix and things to add. The sprites and effects are made by Shuvora, and he’s lazy so a lot of stuff are missing sprites which I used an Alice sprite from Patchcon.
I uploaded the game on http://fobcraft.uuuq.com/rts/ Take a look if you’re interested (it’s an Applet, runs in your browser).
So I decided to resurrect Fobcraft as a place to keep track of my progress on the game.
In other news, Shuvora uploaded Typingmania on a new host:
http://gonorrhea.l4rge.com/Typingmania/index.html
I know, the address sounds pretty inappropriate, I laughed at it when he first told me… Please give him a lesson on how to make normal-sounding domain names…
This blog is like, almost dead…
To prevent it from dying, I’m gonna add a new songs to Typingmania, Rival by MintJam, and some time ago Shuvora also added Tsukihana from Jigoku Shoujo
New Songs:
Japanese:
Rival (short version) – MintJam
Tsukihana (TV size) – Jigoku Shoujo Mitsuganae
Nobody posted for quite a while ever since school started. Nothing new happened… Well, actually, a lot of new things happened, but they’re just not exciting enough to write about.
Well, aside from these unexciting new things. I hosted Typingmania, a typing game where it’s like karaoke, except you type the songs. With Shuvora’s help, we added some songs to it, mainly anime songs.
http://fobcraft.elementfx.com/ << The one i hosted on 10x hosting

I have included English instructions at the bottom of the page (The game is Japanese, although you don’t need to know Japanese to play, even the Japanese songs).
Leave comment if you wish to see a song added. If I like the song and can find the lyrics, I’ll add it.
Online summer course started! More sitting in front of my computer, yay.
Guess I didn’t mention that I took a law course online this summer, along with shuvora. Just yesterday, we went to an orientation teaching us how to do the course online, such as how to use their website and stuff.
Basically, our teacher posts the lessons and stuff on this website, we log into the website, read the boring stuff and answer questions. There’s also a discussion board where we discuss about stupid issues and stuff. You won’t believe it, but it’s actually fun reading what people write on the discussion board. There’s these two kids in my class that are very… passionate… about our course, and after a while, they started typing out page long essays on the discussion board about the Canadian justice system, with citations and all that (except some of the citations are actually wrong…). After a while, they started bringing on the internet slangs… I’ll look forward to seeing how things turn out later.
There’s also stuff like live chat with a drawing board that lags like crazy, and calculators on the front page. I was surprised that they put Wikipedia as a part of student resources, since teachers usually seem like they’re afraid that Wikipedia will take away their job, so they accused Wikipedia as a “not trusted” source of information.
An excerpt of our lesson 2 activity:
You and your friends set out exploring, became lost, and did not hear the train return. It pulled out without you. Your group decided to wait for the next day’s train by sheltering under the picnic tables. During the night a terrible storm occurred, washing out the trestle, and causing an enormous rock slide, blocking off the entire north end of the canyon. You are wet, cold, hungry, and entrapped. See what happens when you skip school?
“See what happens when you skip school?” – I lol’d at that.

Today, I was registering on a Chinese forum,and I actually had to enter the “security code” 4 times before finally getting it right. What’s the point of these security code anyways? Why do they make it the letters so hard to read if it’s simply for stopping bots? It’s not like a few really-badly drawn letters can stop a hacker from hacking the site or anything…
Oh yeah, the part about “pi” actually happened to me, and that was what I typed. Then as I expected, it told me I got it wrong. Now that i think about it, that might have been a 4 rotated onto its side, with some random line attached to it somehow.
PS: looks like I’m beating nubson already
Earlier today, I decided with Nubson to make a blog to post stuff on. The blog was subsequently named FobCraft, the reason being that “fobcraft” yielded 0 results on google and we were surprised by that fact. Just now, I am writing the first post of this blog because the blog is currently empty.
Then someone messaged me on MSN…
…And so, I forgot what else I was going to write because this friend asks me what I’d do if there’s a zombie apocalypse. I said that if I had 100 sneak level, then I can just stand there in sneak mode and the zombies won’t see me, except there isn’t a CTRL button to press in real life. So we planned that we’ll camp in a mall, and pick off the zombies from the roof, since zombies suck at opening doors….
Nubson and I will both post entries in this blog, and we’re having a match to see whose posts will get more views. However, I’m sure he’s going to cheat and keep refreshing his pages. Oh well, we’ll see.
Oh, and Shuvora also joined this blog after I told him about it. He’ll be posting as well.
