Inspirational Music

feeds@yuku.com (Vortex Duck) — Mon, 21 Dec 2009 20:46:10 GMT

Now, this is something I've been pondering as of late; the concept of a soundtrack to accompany real life. Often, during any scenario in my life, I'll find myself humming a tune that fits the mood perfectly; and I'll no doubt have something from a soundtrack on my phone to play to add to the decor.

I'm wondering now if anyone else does this; and also, a second thing I've found myself doing lately: using music as a direct inspiration for writing.

Another Song What We Wrote

feeds@yuku.com (Vortex Duck) — Fri, 12 Jun 2009 02:20:50 GMT

So, after dear Cabbyhat's remark that we should release an album, I played a couple chord changes that I liked into Cubase, added a double bass for comedic effect, and here's the result:

It's supposed to be a sea shanty, so when we're finished I thought about putting some sound effects on over the top of cannons firing, rhythmic sword...

Originality

feeds@yuku.com (CabbyHat) — Thu, 11 Jun 2009 20:22:29 GMT

Lately, it seems so difficult to come up with original characters. Every new character I create just seems like a ripoff of someone else's better concept, or one of my older, better characters. I'll toil over a character that seems so new and original, then present him or her to my friends only to be met with cries of "Oh! Just like..." It's just starting to feel like there's really nothing new under the sun. Has anybody else had problems like this? Anybody else...

Idea branched from Event Horizon

feeds@yuku.com (Atlas) — Fri, 05 Jun 2009 00:08:05 GMT

I watched the movie 'Event Horizon' again today, and a really weird idea popped into my head. SPOILER ALERT The core of the Event Horizon is a black hole, could someone use that and the magnetic tunnel thingo("looks like a meat grinder to me") to make some form of super-spaceship cannon? Just a random idea, feedback would be greatly appreciated

Xothu RPG

feeds@yuku.com (Vortex Duck) — Mon, 06 Apr 2009 11:45:05 GMT

So yeaaah, inspired by Wolfie and his brother's work on SPACE ZEPPELIN, I've started work in my spare time on an episodic format of Xothu.
So far, you wake up in Niar with no memory of who you are or where you come from, while the Soldiers of Nherru are making a (useless, but heavy) assault on the city.

It's not much, and I'm still working on it, but that's a couple spaces from where you...

Starting from Scratch

feeds@yuku.com (crystalchief) — Sun, 18 Jan 2009 19:15:50 GMT

Its been a while since I was last here. Anyway, i'm starting from scratch on a new project that i'm gonna try to stick with for a long time. If I need any help,i'll just ask you readers right here,and if you want to know more,just ask me here.

A song what I wrote

One minute and Fifty Five seconds of steampunky instrumental goodness.
It's hidden in the image. Just save the file somewhere, change the extension to .rar and unzip it.

DD

feeds@yuku.com (Rapth) — Sun, 28 Sep 2008 14:17:40 GMT

I thought that I would explain a little bit about my card game that I am designing, which is still currently in development. I searched the web page a bit, and could not find anywhere that I thought would be appropriate to post this, so I decided on doing it here. I hope its okay.

But anyways, I have used seventh sanctum a few times in the development of the game so far, and will probably use it several times more throughout the rest of its development. But anyways. Let me start by...

Circus!

feeds@yuku.com (crystalchief) — Thu, 11 Sep 2008 14:24:14 GMT

Just like me to start a whole new world when my others aren't even finished. Oh,well. I thought of an almost random idea about a very dark circus/carnival thing. Tell me if you like the idea. I kind of like it. The entire theme of a dark and possibly haunted carnival is cool to me...despite my usually cheerful self. Tell me what you think,and if you have any ideas for it,tell me.

Hollow Yrth Campaign Setting

feeds@yuku.com (Gem Sealed Emperor) — Thu, 04 Sep 2008 14:00:21 GMT

So I've finally started work on my campaign setting based on the world we began designing around 'Aotearoa.' If anyone here plays the 3.5 edition of D&D and is interested in a PDF copy, let me know. I suspect I will be finished by the third week of November at the latest.

Rubik's Conversion

feeds@yuku.com (Vortex Duck) — Wed, 27 Aug 2008 04:00:08 GMT

*sigh*

I've been slowly scraping the stickers off the Rubik's cube I've had for YEARS and replacing them with a Weighted Companion Cube design I found somewhere. Luckily I pre-tinged the design in photoshop so it's still a usable Rubik's cube. But it's taking days. I'm about half done now:

How do you...

feeds@yuku.com (crystalchief) — Mon, 18 Aug 2008 10:31:18 GMT

I knew the title would catch your eye...anyway, how do you come up with characters...if you draw them, how do you come up with a design. If you write, how do you come up with their personality? Does it just come to you? Do you examine characters from other stories that help feed your vision of what that character looks like? Do you mess around with sprites of characters in video games and recolor them until you get a design/character that you like? How do you make a character? Answer...

Another creation of mine

feeds@yuku.com (crystalchief) — Mon, 23 Jun 2008 07:54:09 GMT

Hi,again,everybody! Well I'm here to tell you about my new creation.It probably isn't good to go from one unfinished world to starting an entire new world...like I did...a little while ago...um...anyway...

Since i don't feel like giving this big summary about my world that leaves so many things out,how about you ask me questions about my world and I'll answer them the best I can...the good part is,if you ask me a question and I don't have an answer,I'll be...

Sporepedia

feeds@yuku.com (Ablean Buckslinger) — Wed, 18 Jun 2008 02:24:13 GMT

Since I'm just downloading the full version (blimey, the things Spore makes me do! I've never entered so much as a digit of my debit card into the net before!) and everyone else seems into the game, I thought we needed a thread for everyone to display their creatures.

Now, do so!

The big Steampunk thread!

feeds@yuku.com (Lord DragonFang) — Wed, 18 Jun 2008 01:25:40 GMT

Steampunk! Discuss!
What do we know about airships in general, and steampunk in particular? What makes it tick (no pun intended)? I thought that this would be a good place to build up a mound of information to draw from for any steampunk related projects any of us might be doing.

class naming help Please!

feeds@yuku.com (crystalchief) — Sat, 17 May 2008 07:11:21 GMT

I need help coming up with a name for a class stronger than a sage. My class system works like this (for now): each class set that grows has,at most, 3 tiers. For example: spear soldier(1st tier),halberdier(2nd tier), and lastly, spearmaster(3rd tier).Some classes even have only one tier(examples: hawkeye,druid,and assassin).I need help name a 3rd tier class for the main magic class chain: mage(1st tier),sage (2nd tier), ???(3rd tier).I've tried to create a new name(magicist for example)...
