2011
« on: March 15, 2011, 05:46:45 am »
Oh gosh, 2011 is turning out to be a disastrous year, and it's only March!
First there were the disastrous floods affecting Queensland in Australia (and also the state of Victoria). Brisbane, the capital of Qld was very badly affected, but Gold Coast was Ok, just phenomonal amounts of rain. Also there were the Brazilian floods which only appeared once on the Australian News (Australia's floods appeared 100s of times).

Then Christchurch, that was pretty serious considering there was one last year already. And now Japan! This one has got to be really serious, all the financial markets plummeted over the last few days. Not to mention the tsunami that it caused. And of course the radiation.

Also we must not forget the beginning of the series of revolutions in Africa and the Middle East. Started with Tunisia (ending with the President's resignation on my birthday), then Egypt and the leader Mubarak, (also Jordan was having protests too at the same time), and Libya (Gaddafi). The difference between Egypt and Libya is that Egypt's was mostly peaceful and created an overwhelming sense of euphoria when Mubarak peacefully resigned, while in Libya there is a leader calling his own people enemies and engaging in civil war.

Given that this has only happened in just a few months, the forecast doesn't look good for the rest of 2011!
And we all know of the December 21st 2012 threat, could these events lead to this?

Personally I try to not worry too much about the future, although I am fairly sure no matter what that 2012 will have quite a lot of bad events. I can only think of what happens in muslim countries right now with civil wars and flooding.

I feel the same way. I don't believe that the world will end in 2012 for whatever reason, be it the Mayan calendar or the Second Coming, etc. If it does, what's the point in worrying? It's not like we could prevent it if it's gonna happen, so just enjoy the present.


Spoiler For Projects:

My projects haven't been worked on in a while, so they're all on hiatus for the time being. I do hope to eventually return to them in some form or another...

Spoiler For Pokemon TI:
Axe port of Pokemon Red/Blue to the 83+/84+ family. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia:
My big personal project, an original RPG about dimensional travel and a few heroes tasked with saving the world.
Coding-wise, on hold, but I am re-working the story.

Spoiler For Finale's Super Insane Tunnel Pack of Doom:
I will be combining Blur and Collision Course into a single gamepack. On hold.

Spoiler For Nostalgia Origins: Sky's Story:
Prequel to Nostalgia. On hold, especially while the story is re-worked.

If the world ends in 2012, I will survive and rule the scattered remnants of humanity with an iron fist! Mwahahaha...

I mean, I will sneak into whatever is left of TI's development lab and steal the Nspire keys.

But then you'd have to spend the rest of your life on a time machine to bring them back to this time period so that they'd be useful.
Unless TI is gonna destroy the world, then you couldn't get the keys...

Not to be an insult or anything, but BOB! you almost have -69 respect  O.O

btw I do have a question. Are you capable of ever making a normal post without excessive smilies, bad spelling, or necroing  ???      just wondering

List of stuff I need to do before September:
1. Finish the Emulator of the Casio Prizm (in active development)
2. Finish the the SH3 asm IDE/assembler/linker program (in active development)
3. Create a partial Java virtual machine  for the Prizm (not started)
4. Create Axe for the Prizm with an Axe legacy mode (in planning phase)
5. Develop a large set of C and asm libraries for the Prizm (some progress)
6. Create an emulator of the 83+ for the Prizm (not started)
7. Create a well polished game that showcases the ability of the Casio Prizm (not started)

About the christian thing, I wonder if it isn't more the medias trying to scare people or something. Also the last time they predicted the end of the world it was supposed to end in 1994 anyway.

Then they justified this by a mathematical error. Apparently somewhere in the formula they subtracted a number instead of adding it, leading to the current calculation of May 21st, 2011. I wonder how they'll justify it this time when they'll see it didn't happened again.
