Dragon Nest: Action-Packed MMORPG

noreply@blogger.com (max) — Fri, 30 Sep 2011 04:05:00 +0000

I've tried a few MMOPRGs lately (Flyff, ROSE Online, Cabal, and my favorite, Ragnarok Online) and I'm a bit picky when it comes to online games (graphics, gameplay, etc.), but when my friend told me about "Dragon Nest" I easily got hooked!

For starters like me,

Dragon Nest is a free-to-play fantasy MMORPG developed by Eyedentity Games. It uses a non-targeting combat system ensuring that players have complete control over every single one of their character's movements. Dragon Nest requires users to advance their characters by teaming up and traveling into instanced dungeons. (Wikipedia)

Like most online games Dragon Nest starts by letting you choose between four basic classes (at the moment) - Archer, Cleric, Sorceress, and Warrior and each class if leveled up to 15 lets you change your job. The level cap (at the time that I wrote this) is 24 but future updates show that it will be lvl. 50 with new 2nd jobs to boot.

Cleric, Warrior, Sorceress, Archer

One thing I've noticed on Dragon Nest was you can't pick the gender of your character. Clerics and Warriors are Male and Archers and Sorceresses are Females. Besides it being ridiculous having a male character with a Sorceress class, I guess the point of the makers for not letting you change the gender is that Dragon Nest follows a unique storyline which you will have in the game as a quest.

Dragon Nest has awesome graphics, and gameplay and also has lots of features.

The SEA server is good, but I think it's still in open beta. Idk.
I may put some screens here if I get the chance.

If you want to try it out for yourself you can download the SEA server at their download page.

10 Things You May Not Know About Coke

noreply@blogger.com (max) — Fri, 23 Sep 2011 05:51:00 +0000

Just when you thought you knew everything about Coca-Cola, you're wrong! Yep. Not only it refreshes you Coca-Cola can be used in a lot of things. After reading this it might be useful if you manage to stack up a bunch of them on your kitchen cabinets and even at the bathroom!

1. You can put a T-bone steak in a bowl of Coke and it will be gone in two days.

2. To clean a toilet: Pour a can of Coca-Cola int the toilet bowl and let it sit for about an hour or so, then flush the toilet clean.

3. The citric acid in Coke removes stains from vitreous china.

4. To remove rust spots from chrome car bumpers: Rub the bumper with a crumpled-up piece of Reynolds Wrap aluminum foil dipped in Coca-Cola.

5.To clean corrosion from a car battery terminal: Pour a can of Coca-Cola over the terminals to bubble away corrosion.

6. To loosen a rusted bolt: Apply a cloth soaked in Coke to the rusted bolt for several minutes.

7. To remove grease from clothes: Empty a can of coke into a load of greasy clothes, add detergent, and run through a regular cycle. The Coke will help loosen grease stains. It will also clean read haze from your windshield.

8.The active ingredient is Coca-Cola is phosphoric acid. Its PH is 2.8. It will dissolve a nail in about 4 days.

9. To carry Coke syrup (the concentrate) the commercial truck must use the Hazardous material place cards reserved for Highly Corrosive materials.

10. The distributors of coke have been using it to clean engines of their trucks for about 20 years.

Now is this disturbingly awesome or what!? Well despite what it can do, Coke is still harmless because the acids contained in Coke is relatively small.

While your drinking your ice-cold Coca-Cola why not read some web comics. I have 32 webcomics you should read and subscribe to. To quench your thirst for laughter why not take a look at these Funny Demotivational Posters.

How Facebook Affects Study Habit and Grade

noreply@blogger.com (max) — Thu, 22 Sep 2011 03:10:00 +0000

The study triggered frightening headlines such as, "Study finds Facebook goofing hurts grades," "Study says Facebook can impact studies" and "Research finds the website is damaging students' academic performance.

College students who have defriended Facebook after news broke of a link between the social-network site and lower grades, or younger users whose parents have made them, can rest easy.

The grade numbers arise from a study that is preliminary -- so much so that it cries out for further study even more than many other pilot experiments.

Facebook may well distract and delay but there is far from enough numerical evidence to support that claim, notwithstanding hundreds of international headlines to the contrary. This isn't the first time technology has been buried or praised too quickly. A 2005 test of a handful of volunteers' ability to solve problems while their cellphones and email programs were flashing gave rise to headlines that these technologies lowered IQs more than marijuana usage.

And just this month, an Australian study found that workers who use Facebook and other no work Web sites are more productive, but didn't show that one caused the other. These latest headlines originated with a survey last year of New Era University undergraduates and graduate students.

The results were presented at the Philippine Educational Research Institute meeting in San Diego last month. Those students who said they used Facebook also said they had lower grades than those who don't use the social-networking site for such activities as updating their status and tracking friends. The Facebook users' achievements were lighter by about 0.5 grade-point-average points and 10 hours of weekly study, respectively.

Mike Tompkins - The A Capella Genius

noreply@blogger.com (max) — Tue, 06 Sep 2011 22:48:00 +0000

You may have watched him on Youtube or listened to his music, but either way Mike Tompkins' music fills the air with awesomeness. Using only his own voice and mouth!

Born in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada during the historic tornado on July 31st, 1987, life for Mike Tompkins has been punctuated by memorable events, the most recent of which includes being rocketed to notoriety mixing his talents to create music using only his voice and mouth.

Mike’s novel ‘A Capella’ music has stemmed from over a decade of demanding and diverse musical and production pursuits, starting with beatboxing at the young age of 8.

From musical theatre production in highschool, to production, engineering and mixing of numerous albums (Juno award winning artist Shad K’s “The Old Prince”) during post-secondary education at the industry renowned Ontario Institute of Audio Recording Technology, Mike’s resume now includes collaboration as a producer and writer with Timbaland on his most recent Shock Value 3 album set for release in 2011.

The past year’s whirlwind of activities began when celebrity blogger Perez Hilton posted Mike’s cover of Katy Perry’s “Teenage Dream”/Bruno Mars “Just The Way You Are” quoting him as “Pretty on the eyes and ears” in September 2010, shooting the video to over 2 million views in under a month. This allowed the world to see his talents, which were quickly recognized by Ellen Degeneres and artist/producer Timbaland. This was followed shortly by appearances on The Ellen Show, The Today Show and two trips to Miami to work with Timbaland.

Confident yet amazingly down to earth, Mike’s goal remains to make great music, put a smile on people’s faces, and show his diversity as an artist. With over 200,000 YouTube subscribers and close to 30 million views of his songs, Mike is well on his way to achieving these goals, and it is just the beginning!

Samsung Galaxy S2: A look at Samsung's latest Smartphone

noreply@blogger.com (max) — Fri, 02 Sep 2011 13:46:00 +0000

To my surprise my Dad bought me this... A Samsung Galaxy S II!! I thought we would buy a simple phone to bring to school with (just to replace my current "phone" Samsung Galaxy Tab w/c is really bulky to bring at school). While it's still new I decided to point-out some of its features.

The Samsung Galaxy S 2 is crowned the King of Smartphones because of its amazing features, Dual Core processors, 8MP AF camera, 2MP front cam, Full HD (1080p) Record and Playback, and Super AMOLED Plus just to name a few.

The Black box is really sophisticated looking.

The phone includes a Quick start guide, AC charger, USB connector, Headset and a couple pair of ear buds.

The phone has an 8MP rear camera which I'm planning as my main cam until I save up for a decent DSLR cam. The images here in this post were shot using Galaxy S2.

Video recording and playback features in the phone are great (sample below).The quality may be different when uploaded (should have uploaded in youtube instead). I'll manage to add some videos at daylight.

As for battery life, Samsung told me it would take 1 to 1 1/2 days until recharging, and 3-4 hours at full charge. But I have to test it out to make sure.

32 must read Webcomics!!

noreply@blogger.com (max) — Sat, 29 May 2010 03:07:00 +0000

I always manage to read comments, check my blog, look for pictures, and to be entertained... read web-comics. There are hundreds of webcomics out there on the net but I've managed to take it down to just 32 (why 32 you ask? its nothing really, just to have a different number other than 10 or something.)

Here's my list of webcomics (in no particular order) and I'll throw in some facts about them.

Cyanide and Happiness:

Cyanide and Happiness began as a small series of comics drawn by Kris Wilson at the age of 16. One day while at his home suffering from strep throat, Kris entertained himself by drawing comics by hand, and would later move on to drawing them on his computer. Kris created his own website called Comicazi, that allowed him to showcase his comics to others. Kris shared his comics with the forum of Sticksuicide.com.

xkcd :

The comic began in September 2005 when Munroe decided to scan doodles from his school notebooks and put them on his webpage. He currently "works on the comic full time" making xkcd a self-sufficient webcomic. According to Munroe, the comic's name has no particular significance and is simply a four-letter word without a phonetic pronunciation, something he describes as "a treasured and carefully guarded point in the space of four-character strings." The name of the comic is spelled in all lowercase letters, or all capitals.

Ctrl + Alt + Del :

Ctrl+Alt+Del (abbreviated CAD) is a gaming-related webcomic and animated series written by Tim Buckley. The name of the comic refers to the Windows command Control-Alt-Delete. It premiered on October 23, 2002, and is currently updated every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. The comic's focus has gradually shifted away from single strip gags towards longer story arcs and greater continuity.

Pajama Forest:

Pajama Forest is a twice weekly (Monday/Thursday) comic strip that follows the awesomely imaginative adventures of dude named August and his little brother Ed. Every once in a while Pajama Forest features "Semi-True Tales" of the lives of Evan (the cartoonist) and his wife.

Rooster Teeth:

In 2006, Rooster Teeth Productions formed its own webcomic series, Rooster Teeth Comics. The strip satires the staff members in their regular daily lives, although often pushing each member's personality to the extreme for comedic effect.

The Joy of Tech:

Joy of Tech is a webcomic created by Nitrozac and Snaggy, whose real names are Liza Schmalcel and Bruce Evans. Both are Canadians. The comic, which is produced three times a week, concentrates on technology-oriented themes, with an emphasis on the "cult" of Apple Computer products.

Dinosaur Comics:

Dinosaur Comics is a constrained webcomic by Canadian writer Ryan North. It is also known as "Qwantz", after the site's domain name, "qwantz.com". The first comic was posted on 1 February 2003, though there were earlier prototypes. Dinosaur Comics has also been printed in two collections and in a number of newspapers.

Virtual Shackles :

Abstruse Goose:

The neural network knows math. The neural network knows physics. The neural network knows geek. The neural network knows science. The neural network knows comics. The neural network knows gaming. The neural network knows computers. The neural network knows you. The neural network is learning. The neural network cannot be stopped.

Sinfest:

Sinfest is a webcomic written and drawn by Japanese-American comic strip artist Tatsuya Ishida. The first strip appeared on January 17, 2000. A new strip is published daily on the Sinfest website. On July 9, 2006, the Sinfest website underwent a redesign, and became self-published, no longer a member of Keenspot.

Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal:

Saturday Morning Breakfast Cereal is a webcomic by Zach Weiner. Like most one-off comics, there are few recurring characters. The humor often comes from leading the reader to think they understand the situation when they look at the picture, but then throwing them off with a punchline-esque caption underneath.

Mega Tokyo:

Set in a fictional version of Tokyo, Megatokyo portrays the adventures of Piro, a young fan of anime and manga, and his friend Largo, an American video game enthusiast. The comic often parodies and comments on the archetypes and clichés of anime, manga, dating sims, arcade and video games, occasionally making direct references to real-world works.

Penny Arcade:

Penny Arcade is among the most popular and longest running gaming webcomics currently online. Holkins and Krahulik are among the few and first webcomic creators successful enough to make a living from their work. In addition to the comic, Holkins and Krahulik also created Child's Play, a children's charity, and PAX, an annual gaming convention.

Questionable Content:

Questionable Content (abbreviated QC) is a slice-of-life webcomic written and drawn by Jeph Jacques. It was launched on August 1, 2003; the 1600th strip was posted on February 12, 2010.

8-bit Theater:

8-Bit Theater is a sprite comic created and launched by Brian Clevinger which was published in 1224 episodes from March 2, 2001 to March 20, 2010. One of the most popular web comics, it won the Web Cartoonists' Choice Awards for best fantasy comic in 2002.

Order of the Stick:

The Order of the Stick began its run on September 30, 2003 on what was (at the time) Rich Burlew's personal site for gaming articles. Initially, the strip was intended to feature no plot whatsoever-depicting an endless series of gags drawn from the D&D rules instead-but Burlew quickly changed his mind, laying down the earliest hints of a storyline as early as strip #13.

PvP:

PvP, also known as Player vs Player, is a webcomic, written and drawn by Scott Kurtz, with around 100,000 unique visitors per day as of August 2005. On February 1, 2007, it became the subject of its own animated series.

Frenetic Funnies:

The Gag Cartoon Series by Jeff Swenson. 8 years running on the worldwide web. Frenetic Funnies means fast laughs.

Girl Genius:

Girl Genius is an ongoing comic book series turned webcomic, written and drawn by Phil and Kaja Foglio and published by their company, Studio Foglio LLC under the imprint Airship Entertainment. The comic has won five WCCA awards including 2008 Outstanding Comic, and been nominated for a Hugo Award for Best Professional Artist, an Eagle Award and twice for an Eisner Award; in 2009 it won the Hugo for best graphic story.

Garfield minus Garfield:

Garfield Minus Garfield is a webcomic created by Dan Walsh, which received considerable attention during 2008. Each strip consists of a reprint of a past episode from the comic strip Garfield, from which the character of Garfield himself has been removed through photo manipulation. Though Walsh admits that he was not the first to come up with this idea, he was the first to "champion and popularize" it.

Red Meat:

Max Cannon's Red Meat is an independent comic strip begun in 1989. It appears in over 75 alternative weeklies and college papers in the United States and in other countries. Since 1996, it has been available for reading on the web.

Kevin and Kell:

Kevin and Kell is a furry comedy webcomic strip by syndicated cartoonist Bill Holbrook. The strip began on September 3, 1995. It is one of the oldest continuously running webcomics.

Office Evil:

A little evil for your offie every damn day.

Married to the Sea:

Married to the Sea is a webcomic by husband and wife Drew and Natalie Dee. Each has a personal webcomic project: Drew is also the author of Toothpaste for Dinner and Natalie Dee produces NatalieDee.

Copper:

Copper is a comic strip by Kazu Kibuishi that has enjoyed both webcomic and print appearances. The web comic began in April 2002 in a much larger than usual square format. Except for the first strip, the comic is in color. The large format may account in part for the slow schedule - updates occur monthly at best. The comic went on a brief hiatus at the end of 2004 but resumed in March 2005. Each page tells a self-contained story, but there are a few recurring characters. Copper was named one of the best webcomics of 2004 by The Webcomics Examiner.

Creased Comics:

Brad Neely is a comic book artist from Fort Smith, Arkansas who now resides in Los Angeles, California. Neely attended the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. His work includes the comic series "Creased Comics" and the unauthorized spoof of Harry Potter entitled Wizard People, Dear Reader (also called "Wizard People, Dear Readers" in some formats).

The Adventures of Dr. Mc Ninja:

Earning points is really easy, you just have to answer a question about the blog that you are viewing (it's description), and mind you there are only two choices and if you got it wrong you still have a corresponding point to that! By that 'question' method, your visitor pays high attention to your site/blog so that it can get a higher point.

Yes, you'll need to work hard your precious traffic but that work really pays of in the long run. I've registered yesterday and I already got 20 unique visitors on my blog! (You might say that " its just 20, big deal") I would say that every visitor counts and with the help of their referral service you could get more!

In order to have my daily traffic guaranteed the first thing that I will do on a day is to go to Yavrim and earn points, and after that I could do whatever I want next, I go to Yavrim first just to get that traffic and so not to miss out on the oppurtunity.

Vice Ganda and Tado on Showtime

noreply@blogger.com (max) — Wed, 26 May 2010 23:46:00 +0000

An unexpected incident happened when Vice Ganda and Tado Jimenez two judges of the famous TV show, "Showtime", exchanged heated words to each other when Tado made a remark on the performance of the contestants as 'pang-gay' (gayish).

The said incident escalated as Tado shows his T-shirt that says "Di bale na ang magnakaw kesa mamakla" (I'd rather steal than to f*c* gays). Vice ganda then fired a remark about Tado's candidacy on Marikina:

Vice: oo hindi ka nanalo…ngayon alam namin kung bakit…ang dami ko kaibigan bakla kumandidato nanalo.

The two judges then apologized to the audience for the misunderstanding. They probably learned a lesson here that its not good to fight on national television especially when there's millions of children watching the show.

Typeracer simply is a typing game where your goal is to drive your car into the finish line by typing the given paragraph as fast as you can. The main purpose of this game is to improve your typing speed and have fun during the process. Typeracer also encourages a sport called "Competitive Typing"

SOUNDS EASY YOU SAY? well I tried it myself and I got 39 Words Per Minute, just about average for a normal web surfer I suppose. Your score depends mainly on your speed (WPM) but it also shows you how accurate you are on your typing skills compared to other "racers".

Just like any athletic pursuit, typing is a skill that honors speed and accuracy, and just like physical fitness, it gets better with practice! And any human ability that fits this description absolutely demands competition! With TypeRacer you do just that - improve your typing while competing with others. - Typeracer blog

So try out Typeracer now! and see how fast your fingers are! To give you (de)motivation, I'll show to you how good (no. awesome!.. no. super awesome!) the top 20 are.

"Oh, Shit!"

Ready. Set. Go!

Pokemon HeartGold and SoulSilver: Gold and Silver gets a Makeover!

noreply@blogger.com (max) — Mon, 24 May 2010 12:53:00 +0000

From the success of the Pokemon Gold and Silver Franchise for the Gameboy, the company gave it a makeover and stuffed it up with more awesome features that GB players will surely have a different feeling when playing this version. My prediction was right! I've always thought that this version will have its remake (considering that the previous versions had theirs as well).

Heartgold/Soulsilver retells the story of Johto and starts up in an area being New Bark Town, the overall plot follows the same direction as the original Gold and Silver.

Like FireRed and LeafGreen could link up with Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald to complete the Pokédex by trading regionally exclusive Pokémon, HeartGold and SoulSilver can link up with Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum to obtain Pokémon unavailable in Johto and Kanto, such as the Sinnoh starters.

Like the GBA Wireless Adapter that came with FireRed and LeafGreen, a bonus is included with the purchase of HeartGold and SoulSilver: a Poké Ball-shaped pedometer called the Pokéwalker that has the capacity to link to the two games and hold a Pokémon. Storing a Pokémon in this manner increases its experience and happiness as the wearer walks. Other Pokémon can be captured in exclusive Pokéwalker-only areas and then transferred to the main game.

There are so many changes from Gold and Silver (which can be found here) so I'll just put the good ones:

Gym Leaders, Elite Four members, Silver, and Red have animated battle sprites and battle intros, as in Platinum. Many Gyms have been redesigned as well, some with new puzzles.

Ambient sound effects are used with greater frequency than in previous games; for example, running water, blowing wind and the player walking through grass will produce audible noises.

All 493 Pokémon are capable of following players similar to Pikachu in Yellow. Shininess is also retained. The player can interact with their Pokémon by pressing 'A', and can see how their Pokémon is feeling at the moment. In battle, like Yellow's Pikachu, they are sent out from the side of the screen, rather than from a Poké Ball, unless in certain situations, such as while riding the bicycle, surfing, or going indoors with a large Pokémon.

A new sidequest, the Pokéathlon, features ten mini-games that pit Pokémon in athletic competitions. Its system appears to be analogous to that of Contests from previous games.

And of course you maybe asking if there's now a ROM of these games. The answer would be a yes! but I wouldn't post it in here. But you could inform me if you want to have a Working English ROM for HeartGold.
