Liveblog This

I think it's funny how whenever that movie gets brought up people start talking about the cuts. Are they really even that different (aside from the one with narration)?

The final and director's cuts have an extra scene which supports a hotly debated Epilectic Tree about the main character. You know how nerds are.

Well, I guess I'll be starting Blade Runner.

But I just thought of one I really want to try; School Days. I might do that one next.

Actually, I'll put off Blade Runner until at least tomorrow; tomorrow's going to be a rough day.

Though, to be honest, I've started watching Blade Runner, and I'm kinda tapped for commentary or writing; I really can't think of anything that you'd want to hear/that wouldn't sound stupid.

Okay, well, I'm continuing Blade Runner, but I just had a thought; if I ever get around to Live Blogging Rome, I might play a Carthaginian game, and I think I even have a name for it; 'Punny Punic Poemii'.

• I mean, I like Rome and all, but they already took over the world; LPing a Paradox game means you have to have some new alternate history. And playing as one of the little states is way too hard.

Only problem is, I'm actually kinda bad at that game, and I'm not really sure how I'm going to write it up; it's not that easy to tie into a narrative.

I suppose it's just as well I can't draw, or I'd probably end up with a comic of Hannibal-Chan fighting Scipio-Kun, which would probably make Hannibal himself rise up and strike me down with his undead war elephant.

• ...on second thought, I'd actually be kinda cool with that.

So...Blade Runner finished.

What to do next? I don't know, I can't seem do this kind of thing if I'm not in the mood ([[Dune despite it being for cattle and women]]), and I tend towards Mood Whiplash a lot.

• Plod along with my Betrayal At Krondor liveblog.
• I kinda want to try my hand at getting some Fan Fiction liveblogged, but I'll need at least one partner in that.
• I've got Jagged Alliance, but that one's going to be tricky to liveblog right, both technically and narratively.
• I've got Arcanum, and I never managed to finish it.
• I've been meaning to start watching School Days eventually. I'm curious about the events leading up to the Nice Boat.

School Days might have some interesting reactions. Some people say is a mediocre Idiot Plot, others say it is a masterpiece of tragedy in modern society.

Also, has anyone Live Forummed a Forum RPG?

Here we go, my first liveblogi-nation-of-freedom-and-by-freedom-I-mean-anime-because-what's-more-free-than-anime-besides-apple-pie-and-you-really-don't-want-me-to-liveblog-an-apple-pie——-really.

For some reason I keep getting the itch to do a liveblog. (It's because I'm a self-centered jerk who just wants the chance to be the guy in the spotlight and talk and talk and talk for minutes on end about the stuff I think about.) So I took a looking at my plan to watch list and found a couple of shows that might be interesting.

The Tower of Druaga

Kimi no Todoke

Rose of Versailles

Seto no Hanayome

Zombie Loan

I humbly () ask you to help me choose something to watch, either from this list or something else that you think is good.

I may consider doing a Live Blog of some DS games I've completed, once I got the time to spare. Plus, portable games are easier to play and type up response...unless I'm screaming at the screen.

• Glory Of Heracles DS
• Luminous Arc 2: Will - maybe a new game instead of New Game Plussing it. May or may not lead up to the upcoming localised Luminous Arc 3 release later in the year.
• Lux Pain - To those who know the game's 'localisation' and if I hate myself enough to read the hackjob.
• Sands Of Destruction - Okay, haven't beaten it, but should be interesting.

@Sonica: Lux Pain lulzblog. If you're not feeling up to it, then do Glory Of Heracles.

Since my Goosebumps liveblog has hit a bit of a snag I figured "Why not do another in the meantime"?
My brother(Spongebob Squarepants) has gotten bored with his Time Warp Trio liveblog so I could take over that. Or I could do the one thing I've always wanted to do....

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2003!

You know what I'll do TMNT 2003 anyway. Look for that in the next few days.

Question: if I did a liveblog of Lone Wolf, would anyone be interested? Because it's a gamebook, it'd really be more of a Let's Play—all the choices would be determined by the audience. It's a series that's quite dear to my heart, so I'd love to do it—but if no one picks options nothing would happen.

I've read the article here before, and it seems interesting enough, so I'd read it.

Sure—I'm curious to see what serious gamebooks are like.

I'll be able to do either Lux Pain or Glory Of Heracles DS once I have the time. Though Lux Pain will be worth a lot of lulz, Guide Dang It! and Unwinnable scenario aside.

I'd go for it; I was totally into the books as a kid, and was thrilled when they were put online.

I'd love a Lone Wolf let's play.

Still plugging away at Betrayal At Krondor.

I did a quick check, and yeah, I can use print screen and Paint to get screencaps. Kinda clunky, but the games (Jagged Alliance and Arcanum seem to be able to handle it; not going to be able to get action shots, though.

Also, I noticed someone started an Outlaw Star Liveblog and never got far.

@Rock: That was partially my inspiration to start my Rune Factory Frontier LB, because Cliche's never really got started.

Cool.

Yeah, I've actually been meaning to eventually beat both those games, but I'm nervous about a liveblog because I keep thinking I'm going to have to carry it on my own text, rather than mostly adopting the game's text.

• I guess it's one of those things, you'll feel less nervous once you actually stop.

I might start one up tomorrow, just so that I can go back and forth, rather than get burned out doing just one Liveblog constantly.

Sorry Willy, but I think I might actually be leaning towards Arcanum.

• The more I look back at Jagged Alliance, the more I remember how outright bad I am at that game, though, if I got a lot of audience participation, I could always blame them...

I'll sleep on it and see what I think tomorrow or so.

Nah...I'd much prefer to see Arcanum myself.

I'm considering doing a liveblog of Touhou.

...like the games? Because the originals are only mythical, and the fanmade ones are kind of terrible. If you're doing fanart then I'm not sure how directed that would be. And even if you do do the games, they're shmups. Not really a lot to say. I assure you that the plots are completely banal.

Would anyone be interested in a liveblog of The Art Of War?
