Slew of Obsessive Political Activists
That's my new version of the SOPA acronym. Like it?
Anyway, so there's this new bill that the US Congress, in all their international renown and infallible wisdom, has taken up into consideration.
By the way, I was joking about the renown and wisdom thing.
At any rate, this bill will affect the laws involving Internet piracy, making the infringement penalties more severe and naming the act of unauthorized streaming of copyrighted material, like on most of YouTube, a crime.
Now, see, this may seem fine on the outside, but to a former participant in the Christian Communicators of America debate tournaments and someone who is good at finding holes in arguments, it has a few problems.
The first and foremost is that it has no provisions for increasi…
Brutal Honesty
I'm going to be brutally honest about myself and Argh.
WE ARE VERY LAZY.
Like no one knew that already. You could probably figure it out from the fact that we haven't posted any story in like four months.
Oh, well. Anyhoo, for those of you who I haven't met yet, I am Sidorak12814, commonly called Sidd, Siddicus, or Siddmeister. I am the co-writer of the Altronia story, along with my homey dude .
We haven't been very good at keeping it going.
But hey, you can't rush art.
To be honest, I've been slightly obsessed with Minecraft these past few months, but finally managed to master that addiction. Then I got addicted to Super Mario 3D Land. So not much got done story-wise. At any rate, I'm all good now.
Now, Argh and I have been working on this half …
Yet Another Update
"To write or not to write... That is the question."
That's what Argh is probably thinking right now.
Anyway, so our story is a bit stalled right now, and Argh has told me to bug him and tell him to get to writing, so this is my way of bugging him into action.
With that out of the way, I shall move on to the next order of business.
It is an exciting order of business, too.
Why? Because TimT/Varon II is getting closer to starting his story, of course!
I am really looking forward to it, for several reasons. First, the story has a cool premise. I won't steal Varon II's thunder on that, but just trust me. Second, he has previously given me some of his writing, and he's not bad. Not bad at all. He should do a fine job. Third, his story involves the Ge…
Unreleased Images 18 Part II
Yeah, I wasn't done. I just realized this a few days ago, and haven't got around to doing this until now, but...
...I FORGOT TO UNVEIL ROHKO'S NEW MOC!!!
I mean, seriously.
This wouldn't have been such an issue if he weren't so epic now. Argh ranks him as one of my best creations. I asked him if he was THE best, but (I should have seen this coming) Argh said that Altron really took the cake in that respect.
I think Rohko may be my best Toa-size MOC, however.
I don't know. See what you think.
He is first of all, now more heavily armored and perfectly symmetrical without his shield. Second, his shield can attach to his forearms by simply having the axles through them slide out to one side, then attaching the shield to that. Third, he keeps with th…
Story Update
Okay, so here I am once more at my keyboard, writing an update to a wiki full of people whom I hope will read this blog.
As the title implies, I am here to update you people as to what is going on in our stories. I will divide the blog into sections to focus on each story about which an update is required.
- 1 Land of War/Altronia
- 2 Gone Tomorrow
- 3 A Friend's Heel Lifted
- 4 Epiphany
- 5 Rising Writers Website
The story hit a bit of a speed bump for two main reasons. First, I had computer issues, and only recently did the trouble abate. Second, my church was hosting VBS right after my troubles were removed, so I and Argh had little time to move on in the writing.
This second reason leads into a result: the story has not been updated in about two weeks. and b…
