I hope you aced that test :D I tried listening to your track... but got an error message

It has to have some emotion in it... otherwise a wedding wouldn't make much sense. But I definitely want some action/adventure/humour aspects in it as well. How long does it take on average? Hopefully, I'll be finished this by next year, before the wedding. I can see me doing the same thing... not touching it for weeks at a time, I'm a bit of a procrastinator :sweatdrop: Btw, did I mention that you were my new favourite person? I hadn't been able to find wedding themed character sets. :D

Poor Billy... he's aged badly. In my mind's eye, I can't picture him as the next Aaron Spelling

I loved Tommy, he was my fav. But I stopped watching it before he became the Black Ranger. I heard awhile back that he was trying to get into UFC or something along those lines. People were really criticizing him though, because of his age.

I've always like the idea of a blog, I used to have one a couple years ago when I went through a tough time in my life. Once I put all that stuff behind me, I seemed to have out grown it and haven't really updated it in a very long while. Long story short, I've found my way here, through google and yahoo searches, redirects through other rpg sites and affiliates and it seems like a nice place to settle into for a time. The purpose for this blog, is to chronicle my journey through my first game. A friend told me about rmxp, he basically said that this program would enable me to write my own games without having to know anything about scripting. I was really excited when he told me, all these ideas came rushing through my head, I wouldn't have been able to settle on just one idea. That was a couple years ago, and I have now made a very important discovery. He lied. I have a very specific image in my head about what the game will look like, and it isn't anything like the default version. I've never really considered myself to be a girly girl, so, when all these ideas had come to me way back when, I never would have thought that I'd be centering my first game around a wedding. Eww. But, as it turns out, my little sister's getting married, and was sadistic enough to charge me with being her Maid of Honour. Never really being interested with this stuff before, I was like, "sure, why not?". (Side note: If anyone ever asks you to be their maid of honour, or best man or anything, run. Run like hell.) In actuality, I don't really even know how it happened, but I was talking with my sister, and some how she's convinced me to incorporate her into my first game. lol, so I came up with the brilliant idea of kidnapping her fiancee. I've come across a few challenges... like finding the perfect villain, how to incorporate the entire wedding party into the story (I've a big family), where do I start with the game? When I started, I kinda knew that it would be a big project, but, omg, it didn't really sink in just exactly how big this is going to be and how much I have to learn. No, I really don't know how to script, and knowing me, it's going to get really complicated really quick. Here's my game plan: 1)I'm going to write as detailed a summary/story of my game as possible. As well as my maps and character profiles. 2) Do as many tutorials as possible. 3) Start putting the game together. Do what you know first right? and I know how to write stories. So, that roughly sums it up about how I got here. I've got work to do, finishing up my summary/story, so I'll go do that... right after I finish procrastinating... Btw, if anyone's actually finished reading this and has any advice, I certainly won't turn it down :)

I was looking for tutorials, and found this site through yahoo. And then kept getting sent back here through a bunch of other sites... don't remember which ones though. I think I'll stay awhile... see how well it fits, warm up my chair a bit.

I think that the lines are blurrier then we'd like to admit. There are many things that can define attraction, but do we really need these labels? Also, you don't need to belong to a culture to be offended at the abuse directed to it. Like you don't have to be black to be horrified that the KKK still exists or you don't have to be Muslim to be insulted when close minded republicans are keeping a mosque from being built in NYC.

Wow, I hadn't heard of this yet. It makes me really excited. It seems like our generation is on the verge of breaking through so many diseases, like MS and now possibly HIV. It really gives me hope for the future. All diseases, virus, bacteria can change and mutate, so can we, unfortunately there are lives lost while we wait to adapt. But there is hope, maybe we can do away with HIV from ever being spread again. Rated you are right in that people should be a lot more careful regarding this issue then they have been. But I don't think they realize that the consequence could be a long painful death. There was this one guy in my city charged with a whole bunch of murder charges because he had knowingly slept with a bunch of people without protection just to get back at them for something. Now that's just wrong. I feel terrible for the victims though and for all the victims of rape who have to deal with this as a consequence.

lol @ alt F4 ... unfortunately I did fall for that once, but I learned Thanks for the offers of help, I'm sure I'm going to need it. The game that I'm going to start off with is actually going to be a wedding gift to my sister... she's insisting. But it's just for me to see what I can do and to familiarize myself with the program. I'm gonna kidnap her fiance... should be interesting ;)

Hi. Thought that I would introduce myself. Y'all can call me Stella, I'm new here obviously, and I've been checking out the tutorials (which rock btw) and figured that I didn't want to just be a mooch. I hope that I'll be able to contribute something to the forums... but I'm still very new to scripting and all things RMXP (just got it a couple days ago). I've already figured out what my first game is going to be... and just to warn y'all, I'll probably need help somewhere down the line. lol, I'm actually quite excited about starting, and frankly I'm looking for people who share my love of all things geeky
