Darkness Inside

I am still playing Battle of Wesnoth.
Addictive and difficult to master. It has some strategy in it as well as some basic rules. My most experienced Ghast has 123 Hp, my Spectre is at 53 Hp, Nightgaunt at 50 Hp, and one of my sorcerer has 92 Hp. But you can tell that we are in deep trouble. It's the 19th turn and the Orcs are still deploying units.

I remember playing this a few years ago. Ubuntu was an almost new creation, you were seeing it everywhere. It promised of a better future for computers, a brighter place for free software, but it stalled.

On that particular moment, I was having trouble with my own computer. I probably got it inside the Pirate Bay without protection. A proper analogy of this is to put a famished white skinny boy into a maximum security mexican prison... he is going to get his ass raped.

I decided to do the unthinkable, I ditched windows and installed a brand new copy of Ubuntu. I then started tried to do everything into this new ambient. Have you ever tried out Libre Office? LaTex? Honestly, I didn't last long. At that time, Dell got an excellent support for their former clients, they got me a brand new copy of Windows.

Linux has some nice features, the version that I used, came with a torrent downloader, which was pretty neat, and Libre Office has recently evolved to have great features, as I did say in a previous post, but you need to have a certain expertise on it to really be proficient on it.

There are many things that are not supported by Linux, and it sometimes seems like a nightmare to find the appropriate solution for your unique distribution.

And we are getting off topic, again...

Ubuntu back then, was also trying to introduce some games of its own. One of such games was Battle for Wesnoth. As I was stating before, it's a very simple game, and it has full support from its creators as well as many contributors. You can even make your own faction if you decide to. The game is on Steam for free, I recommend you to check it out.

Battle for Wesnoth has the Drakes/Saurians and you can also play as the necromancers. There's a campaign about a necromancer, the end of that campaign is the so called "endless night". You play again and again against Orcs, Elves, Humans, and Dwarves. Each of your creatures in the game can evolve to a certain point, so this campaign is great to keep on evolving your creatures. It's not an easy task. You don't have any money, while the computer keeps on creating new units; however, you are master of the saving and loading of games, tell me what can beat that?

I'm talking about this game, because I took many things from here, the Saurians, the barbaric and some times mercenary nature of Orcs, and the treacherous and ambitious side of us humans. I really hope you can take some moment to read my book, it's really not that bad, I'm really beating that you are going to like it.

And here... my latest creation, and part of my book:

"One dead Saurian lying on the ground started to be reanimated, The unholy spawn was pitifully fighting for a second life, violent spasms shacked its mutilated body, his dead lungs started working again, but his blood became pitch black"

 See you around, strangers ^.^

I am starting a blog today... Somehow, I think that it will help me out with my book selling (which is at zero right now) This is the book I got from Amazon, it is a "proof" book. I was so happy when I first got it, and then as always, you start checking the little details. In this case, the margin is not properly cut, and it did have some minor details on my behalf, e.g. I did have two repeated 21 chapters, and many little inconsistencies everywhere. My father told me that it was ok, the most important thing was the contents, and yes, part of me agree with him, while the fascist part of me: the one that wishes to end all of humanity in a hellish ocean of fire, tells me that the devil is in the details. Both are right. So last night, I was correcting all these stupid minor details, that and at the same time I was fighting with my computer software. Let me explain: I love Microsoft Word, I grew working with the stupid program, it was the only option back then, r...

El muerto

This is my latest drawing. Theresa is the one in the middle. On her sides are her daughters. They have the purple hair, a particularity of the Ghost people : they are basically elves who excel at " ghost walking " and that is only another name for astral projections... I must confess: the stuff I can't do, I reflect it on my books. When I was doing my pH.D. my former girlfriend was kind into this (she got an aunt who was capable of "witchcraft"), so sometimes, they went and practice meditation and stuff like that. I tried and I tried, but my mind is too noisy, or I just give up and go to sleep, but I remember once, that I was dreaming, and on that dream, I found myself outside my parent's house. I remember that it was a clear fresh night, and everything was so vivid: the noises, the feeling, even the smells. And the only thing that I couldn't move was my body... my head was coming out from the street, other than that, it truly was like if I was ...

Tijuana

It's pretty dark, my eyes must be red, but I finished it... Eventually I will stop drawing and "advertising" everywhere... I need to also finish my second book (I have probably like two freaking pages of my new novel...) A guy from Facebook, told me that I should hire a good editor O.o He was complaining because of a typo . I went into his FB account, he even wrote a post complaining about Harry Potter... he is also an author, but like me, not really famous, not really relevant. Enough of this shit , I was going to tell you, my fellow strangers, about prostitution . When you hit puberty, you have only one passion in your life, at least for me was fantasizing about women. All kinds, all races, and porno. You need tons and tons of porno, lube as well, but your saliva will do. The addicting sensation of masturbating, a lot, is something that you will experience once in your life, and probably every boy hitting puberty in all different kind of regions ...
