First Friday o' October Rookery

The trees are changing, and the leaves are lazily falling to the ground. It is Autumn, and the warm days of Summer are a distant memory.
However, not all is bad.

The chef bots are ready with some seasonal recipes. So let's get this started on the right note.

*Sighs happily as he is outside where the rest of the rookery isn't watching him. He smiles beneath his helmet and plops down into a pile or red leaves and hums Vode An*

Happy Oktober peoples! I promise not to burn any trees! >

What is this autumn you keep babbling on about?

We got two seasons... Spring and [censored] Hell. :P

/e can be seen marking out circular areas on the ground outside the building in orange landscape paint, then undergoing extensive calculations, drawing out chalk marks, sticking up a wing to test wind speeds, and finally placing out small trampolines before standing back and nodding in silent approval at the work.

/e wanders in

Good Morning all!

Welp! I am ready for the fall leaves to get raked up.

/e does deep knee bends

Got to get my leaf jumping legs in shape!

Good Morning Rad and Jag and Dolphin!

Good Morning chefbots!

/e sits down on a stool and noms away at a pamcake while watching the trees.

*changes color to an orange tabby and falls out of one of the trees, drifting slowly to the ground to join the rest of the foliage, coming to a rest on top of Jag's head*

Hello there silly man. Whatcha hiding for?

How's everyone doing?


SG Mate: Cien, what the hell is this Rookery thing?
RadDidIt: (interjecting) Dude. It's the Rookery.
SG Mate: Yeah, but what IS it?

Morning Neko!

/e looks up from the empty plate.

Just finishing up my syrup.

And counting numbers.

Oh. Saw your comments on Aion on Massively. Sounds really bad.

*licks up Rook's plate to get any missed syrup*

Yeah, it's a shame too, because the game itself is beautiful and fun, but I'm really starting to reach my BS quotient between the out of control botting and the most rude playerbase I've run across. I know it's a minority that's causing the problem, but when that minority is so vocal and constantly in your face, it makes logging in to be unpleasant.

I'm at the point right now that I'm more logging in because I don't want to waste my free time rather than any real desire to play, and I'm thinking I may cancel at the end of that time and maybe give it a try again in a few months. Hopefully give the staff some time to get their act together and deal with a situation they should have had a plan for from the start.

Yah. Let em get the kinks worked out of it for a few months.

On another note, this isn't new but the character creator for APB if this video is true. Goodness.

I'd sound off as the commentators are kinda annoying.

Might never play the game just spending time making characters. In fact IS there a game portion for APB?

Feeling any better today, Fedor? Hi there Shecky. Yes, allergies are not much fun. Fortunately for me it's the Yellow Menace, so I'm safe till spring. Just colds and flus to worry about.

I've seen that video before, or rather it was part of a longer APB trailer I saw. I dunno, to me those look more like developer tools. But if that's the character builder players have access to... my god. That blows any other character creator out of the water. Custom created and placed tattoos, creating your own logos and slapping them wherever you like. Sizing and rotating and placing designs on clothing exactly how you like. Heck you get to choose how visible veins are.. that's just insane.

I'm not sure, but I think (big emphasis on not sure) it may be a free to play game, probably with an item store and all that jazz. I could be getting it mixed up with one of the other crime-based MMO games coming out here... Mostly they don't interest me, but that level of customization is just nuts.

APB? What's that?

*Tussles back, feeling stronger than yesterday.*

Still not 100% but better than before. Am back at work today at least.

Better is good at least. *pins Fedor again while he's feeling off*

APB is All Points Bulletin, a MMO game where you take the part of a cop or or gang member and go to war with each other. You fight over territory and the like. http://www.apbgame.com/

Like I said, I really didn't look much into it. The concept doesn't do that much for me. But I saw an extended trailer with some gameplay and the character customization stuff and it's very cool. Basically it sounds like multiplayer GTA, another game series I never was interested in trying.

*Struggles and then gives up.*

Tooooo weak to fight still. Gah! I feel drained.

Mmm not my thing either. Not big into the strictly pvp stuff.
