Day 516 - 519 (1 year, 152 - 155 days)

Heya! How are we doing today? Just a quick update since the next quest released today. ^^

So the teens actually gotta clear out trials. They are obviously not prepared and very silly about it, much to the Guide's dismay. X]

Genuinely love the cape the guide has. It looks so fluffy. Makes me wish I had a season pass but oh well.

The next quest actually takes place in the river area inside the forest. One of the spirit masks leads to a small circle to sit in, which will turn it night time. This also leads to a small social gathering area again which only surrounds the mask. The quest is actually a timed event that everyone takes part in at the same time.

Also you get a new outfit and mask for the time being. Looks stylish. ^^

The quest itself plays similar to the AURORA questline. The mask has an area around it which you have to stay in. But additionally you also have the task of picking up junk that lies around, while traversing the river area and trying to stay close to the mask. Cleanup duty for the kids. X]

It does fit the game's environmental message though. Perfect with Days of Nature.

The area does also get a few additional assets to get over the giant gaps, without having to fly. Turns the area a bit into a jump and run section. Hope future quests get something like this. ^^

After the quest is done you return to the guide and add a bit to the memorial. Wonder how it will look at the end. Next quest is in two weeks though.

After that the guide offers you a mask for purchase as well. It's based on this quest's spirit mask. The spirit mask made sheep noises during the quest so I guess this is supossed to be a sheep or goat.

Actually the wiki says it's a Serow. It's an animal similar to a goat. Huh, this game really teaches you about new animals all the time.

Anyway the mask is very stylish! I like the dark and bright blue contrast. I still prefer the more simple masks but these definitely are something I keep in mind. ^^

And that has been it for today. Love the season so far. Hope the future quests are great as well. I will see you then. :D

so once me and my wife were watching a documentary where a snake ate like a million eggs. that snake just went to fucking town on eggs. and the snake made the eggs look so good that i kept thinking about it, and thinking about it, and thinking about it, and eventually it was 11pm and i ran out of willpower and decided to eat one (1) singular raw egg just to prove to myself that the snake was surely a liar.

the snake was not a liar. texture is like, super important to me and raw eggs are very Texture so i had another one, and then another one, and then another one, and eventually i ran out of eggs.

i had like, fifteen raw eggs.

i didnt really know how to explain this momentary madness to my wife, so my Plan was to put all the eggshells into a grocey bag, and then throw that grocery bag in the dumpster, and if she never noticed that would be Excellent and if she noticed immediately i could lie and say that the eggs went bad.

except i cant lie very good, and of course with murphys law being such, i got salmonella.

so i threw up a lot and my wife asked me what poisoned me so and i tried very hard to dodge the question but i was oozing shame like oil from a room temperature cheese and eventaully i gave in and told her everything and to her enormous credit she was more flabbergasted than actually upset. she did make me promise to not eat any more raw eggs, which i have stuck to, and she gives me weird looks during nature documentaries now as if desire was the only thing keeping me from eating thousands of pounds of krill anyway i made a joke earlier about being able to eat my age in eggs and my sister in law in law made a drawing to comemorate the moment and also because it was my birthday. she's excellent. thank you 10000000% @cintailed. you should all visit her page and admire her work.

Eiffel 65 - Blue (Da Ba Dee) 1998

"Blue (Da Ba Dee)" is a song by Italian music group Eiffel 65. It was first released in October 1998 in Italy and became internationally successful the following year. It is the lead single of the group's 1999 debut album, Europop.

The song initially found success in France, where it debuted in August 1999 and reached number one for three weeks. It then found success in other European countries, reaching the top spot on many charts in September the same year. It became one of the biggest-selling songs of 1999, reaching number one in at least 18 countries, charting at number three in Italy, and peaking at number six on the US Billboard Hot 100 in January 2000. It reached number one in Australia, New Zealand and Canada. In the UK, the song initially entered the top 40 purely on import sales; it was only the third single to do this. The song re-charted on 6 May 2013 at number 40 in the UK, following its inclusion in Iron Man 3.

The song received a Grammy Award nomination for Best Dance Recording at the 2001 Grammy Awards. "Blue (Da Ba Dee)" has also been heavily sampled and remixed in later years.

The accompanying music video for the song was released in 1999 by BlissCoMedia, a computer graphics division of Bliss Corporation, and featured computer-generated graphics that were done in 3ds Max. With very few resources, tutorials and books, and only one editing machine, the video was made between 1998 and 1999 in a garage in about two to three months.

"Blue (Da Ba Dee)" received a total of 75,2% yes votes!

Welcome to my usual metas where we hyperfixate over Arthur Pendragon’s love for Merlin. Today’s episode features this scene right here:

To remind you of the context, it was s03e12 when Camelot was besieged and Arthur just ordered Gaius, Gwaine, and Elyan to go find shelter in the woods. A second later, he looks at Merlin, diverts his eyes, and tells him, “Merlin, you should go with them.”

Which btw translates, in Arthur Pendragon's dictionary, to: Merlin, I want you safe, I want you away from harm’s way, but Merlin, Oh Merlin, don’t leave me. I really don’t want you to leave me. I sustain my strength from you. You’re the bravest man I have ever met. I keep going because I know you’re there. Don’t go and leave me. I am urging you to go, but please don’t believe me.

I really just can’t. Because you guys, Arthur isn’t scared to go fight an entire army of the dead. He’s not scared that he is limping and injured and definitely won’t make it. He’s just scared to do it without Merlin.

And when Merlin looks at him and says, “Nah, I’ve seen the woods already”, Arthur knows Merlin had heard it all, and chose the kindest response possible that doesn’t spot on his worry and fear.

Those fucking two.

Day 972 - 978 (2 years, 242 - 248 days)

Heyo! Hope you had a good start into the week! So a bunch of new things to talk about.

First furniture!

A repeat of stuff I already have. At least my wallet is save for once.

Then we got a new event going on! The Tournament of Triumph! Completely new to the game.

Once you enter the coliseum you get assigned a team and are able to participate in friendly competition.

I got the green team. Let's go Team Wasteland! ^^

The games are a lot of fun and I like that we get more minigames in the game.

The tickets look like medals this time. How you gather medals is also special. You can get two tickets near the scoreboard and then every time you participate in a minigame you get one more. Through minigames you can get up to 25 for the next ten days.

After that the counter resets and you can get another 25. Way more flexible in how you can collect them. ^^

The minigames are also a lot of fun! One is a game where you have to collect the most light in the archive area of the vault.

The other one is a race through the river area in the forest.

And then the next season quest.

Finally getting to clean up the place! Burning off the webs off tables and the stage off dark plants.

Also opening the skylight and getting to learn the full song! Makes the area feel a lot more alive...

I would say if not completing the quest causes the area to crash the game. Typical Sky. --

Oh well, still a ton of stuff today! ^^
