Happy Good Friday
Apr. 3rd, 2015 10:34 pmIt's been a pretty decent one for me -- got some writing done, watched the Nostalgic Critic/Angry Video Game Nerd crossover review of the latest TMNT movie (has an absolutely hilarious opening, you should probably check it out just for that :P), caught up on some messages/tags, and played some video games. DragonVale threw me for a loop when I first logged on -- it's a Double Weekend for Easter, which was expected, but when I went looking for the special "Hidden Egg" (a golden egg sprite that lurks in your park and gives you bonus eggs and a gem when you find it), I instead found a GREEN Egg. Which only gave me 10 eggs instead of the expected 30. My first reaction:
"What the FUCK? Did they seriously change the rules this late in the game? Now I've got to find THREE eggs instead of just one? Fine, let me see where the other two are. . ."
After finding a purple Egg that only gave me 4 eggs:
"GODDAMN IT BACKFLIP YOU CANNOT DO THIS YOU PIECES OF SHIT HOW DARE YOU PULL THIS CRAP SO LATE IN THE GAME"
After finding a few more Eggs -- and abruptly realizing I had MORE than 30 eggs all of a sudden:
"Wat?"
Turns out that, for this last weekend, they're hiding EXTRA Eggs. The golden one is still around, but now it's joined by green and blue ones worth 10 eggs each, and a purple one worth 4. You can find three each of green and blue, and five purple, so that's actually a lot of extra eggs. Um -- sorry for the intense rage and swearing, Backflip. ^^; At least this guarantees I'll be getting both Monoliths.
As for my other video game, dropped by Sims 4 to see Geeker. Was rather startled by the new patch changing how you move between worlds now (you have a new screen instead of just a tab in the corner) -- would appreciate a heads-up about that sort of thing in the patch notes from now on, guys! Still, had a fun time playing. Geeker didn't have a particularly exciting couple of days, though he did get a promotion and level up his garden's quality a couple of times. He also transitioned from Young Adult to Adult! I forewent a party because he only has one real friend, but I went ahead and had him make himself a birthday cake:
( Let's Age Up )
So yeah, that's been my day in a nutshell. Right now, though. I do have a standing chat date to keep with a friend, so let me just go set up Forgotten's queue. G'night all!
