Hey Stars.~

ninestarryskies March 1st, 2021 9:50 PM

Hi!! Did you guys miss me? I had therapy today and then went on a walk with my best friend and her two dogs!

Setsuna March 1st, 2021 9:57 PM

Sounds really nice! Good to get out sometimes, I didn't today, but I usually tend to avoid going out if I can.

ninestarryskies March 1st, 2021 9:58 PM

I've been itching to go outside and exercise but it's been cold and there's nowhere I feel safe going alone nearby! So I'm glad my friend is around for a while now.

Roni March 1st, 2021 10:10 PM

i miss going to the gym to exercise! i had such a good and consistent schedule going on before the pandemic struck, and now i've completely lost my groove and can't get back into it :<

ninestarryskies March 1st, 2021 10:13 PM

I can't do gyms very well, my mom pressured me about them too much and it's like.. bad. I prefer being outside or swimming!

Setsuna March 1st, 2021 10:16 PM

Going to a gym was something I maybe could have possibly theoretically attempted to do, but then pandemic happened and everything swung. Don't know if I'd be going again any time soon, or if it's really a thing I'd want to. Kinda felt pressured honestly. I admire the people who could go regularly though for sure.

it's quite the pressure indeed to see vets who've been going there regularly and look ripped as heck. best you can do is just drown yourself in your fave playlist and focus on your regime. ignoring everyone else and focusing on myself really helped me to push past insecurities while working out.

Setsuna March 1st, 2021 10:21 PM

The idea of other people being able to see me during working out is the thing that's turned me away from it. Music would probably help, yeah.

ninestarryskies March 1st, 2021 10:22 PM

I did like to listen to podcasts when I went to the gym before. Sort of.

Setsuna March 1st, 2021 10:26 PM

I've listened to podcasts doing other things, but I often feel like I just can't focus on them anymore. Like if I'm listening to someone while doing anything else I sorta just stop paying attention to what they're saying. I'm so used to occupying myself with other things in order to ignore people I've wanted to ignore, so it's kinda tough to not do that at this point.

ninestarryskies March 1st, 2021 10:27 PM

That's fair! I like to listen to them while I'm doing art now, or going on a long drive, or while resting my eyes and trying not to actually nap in the afternoon sometimes. I only keep up with two consistently anyway so it's not too tough.

Roni March 1st, 2021 10:30 PM

i seem to be in the minority here, but i almost always prefer pure silence when i'm doing something. i don't know why... i'm a big fan of music after all.

ninestarryskies March 1st, 2021 10:32 PM

I do too normally, but sometimes I gotta hear sounds to calm down. My anxiety is very weird. I also like to time myself out a bit when I'm doing something like needle felting because if I'm not aware of time passing I might hurt myself working too long!

Roni March 1st, 2021 10:55 PM

dang that's me with posting around Forum Games lol. i'll go into an auto-pilot state and after an hour i'll check my post count and see that i've racked up another hundred :O

i love ambient background sounds tho, those are the bomb.

Setsuna March 1st, 2021 10:57 PM

I used to fall asleep to whatever ambience I could find that wasn't 10 hours long (seriously, I'm not gonna sleep for 10 hours the whole time and I don't want it frightening me when I wake up) but nowadays I'll just sleep in silence.

Ambience usually just comes from whatever game I'm playing, and it's really nice to have. Either it's really pleasant, or very spooky, depending on the game, and I enjoy that a lot. Adds to the experience a lot.

Roni March 1st, 2021 10:59 PM

i legit tried to sleep with those 10 hour rain sounds a couple times, but it annoyed me when waking up more than anything lol. i've never been a fan of in game ambience, since it's too artificial for me, but i'm glad it works for you!

Setsuna March 1st, 2021 11:01 PM

Yeah, I've definitely had game ambience feel too artificial for me, Phasmophobia is a recent example I can think of where whenever you're inside a building it sounds drastically different and will instantly switch when you take your first step in so it kinda breaks the immersion. In most games though, it's really cool to have.

Roni March 1st, 2021 11:03 PM

you'd think that with a horror game like that, they'd focus more on getting the sound to be as accurate as possible right? (i think i read a study that sound was the most important aspect to horror?)

Setsuna March 1st, 2021 11:09 PM

Yeah, for sure. The game has proximity voice chat so you can only hear people close to you and you can use walkie-talkies which is a cool thing with immersion, if you're being hunted the walkie-talkies actually cut out with static and it gives you that feeling of urgency, but the sounds in general just aren't the greatest and have confused me more than making me afraid. There's a sound for going up stairs that I legitimately thought was a friend's stomach rumbling.

Roni March 1st, 2021 11:11 PM

lmao oh dear proximity voice chat in a horror game sounds terrifying to me. i'll pass on this game thank you very much :p even if the sounds do seem broken lol

Setsuna March 1st, 2021 11:14 PM

It's a really neat touch for a horror game to have, and did kinda make me worried when I played it. Most of the time you just use the walkie-talkies anyways, and staying in a group is encouraged. It's really more of a detective game than a horror game, since the goal is always to try different things and identify the type of ghost and get out alive. I usually just end up telling friends it's a detective game that can get scary sometimes. The sounds being broken just give me a laugh now, though the people I play with seem pretty insistent on getting me to play scarier games...

Roni March 1st, 2021 11:35 PM

well shoot apparently i misunderstood the time and i guess i still have around 45 mins or so to knock out a couple posts before i need to go! winning in this thread first~

Squirtlenator March 2nd, 2021 8:27 AM

Hello everyone! How are you all doing today?

Roni March 2nd, 2021 8:40 AM

top of the morning to ya Squirtlenator! i'm getting drowsy over here since it's midnight but i figured i'd knock out a couple more posts before i hit the hay~ hbu?

Squirtlenator March 2nd, 2021 8:47 AM

I'm alright ty

Roni March 2nd, 2021 8:48 AM

great to hear. have a good session!

Squirtlenator March 2nd, 2021 8:50 AM

ty. Have a great sleep and take care

Roni March 2nd, 2021 8:52 AM

thank you as well! i'll see you in 7 hours after i decide i'm finished for the night huehue

ninestarryskies March 2nd, 2021 9:21 AM

I'm baaaaack!

Squirtlenator March 2nd, 2021 9:31 AM

That's got to be a new record - 259+ posts in 2 days

ninestarryskies March 2nd, 2021 9:42 AM

Tbh, as soon as I joined I saw the VPP stuff and got real excited. I love that kind of thing a lot. Just wait though,I'll get burned out eventually!

ZeoStar March 2nd, 2021 5:04 PM

So happy to start vpp, even though i'll probably be super casual and possibly forgetful with it

happy for you too! don't worry about being casual and forgetful, i feel like that's what folks originally envisioned people who join the game to be like. the people who post here are just the anomalies lol.

ZeoStar March 2nd, 2021 5:13 PM

wait can i request more than one right now

Roni March 2nd, 2021 5:15 PM

you gotta knock 'em out one at a time, though you can raise two at the same time if you tag team with someone!

ZeoStar March 2nd, 2021 5:23 PM

it's okay i'm capable of speed posting.

but my attention span is bad so i'll probably end up back on chess.com or youtube

trying to get into the habit of actually paying attention to my chess games. i would probably be in the 800's if I did.

Roni March 2nd, 2021 5:24 PM

oh you don't pay full attention to your chess games? i literally stop everything to focus on it because i literally can't play properly otherwise.

ZeoStar March 2nd, 2021 5:27 PM

lol nope. i multitask and watch youtube between turns.

This is a really poor idea and I don't advise it. Sometimes if I tabbed out a while i go back and think "wait am i white or black".

ninestarryskies March 2nd, 2021 5:36 PM

Heyooooooo!

Roni March 2nd, 2021 5:36 PM

that's hilarious lmao. i spend my time between turns trying to find lines and strategies. having youtube playing would do nothing but distract me completely.

ZeoStar March 2nd, 2021 5:40 PM

hello

also @roni that's a much better idea and it's how i should play. it's not uncommon for me to come back and lose my queen to a bishop. I was trying to make more of an effort today so i'm closing in on 650

ninestarryskies March 2nd, 2021 5:43 PM

I know how to move the pieces in chess, but I can't actually PLAY. i'm more of a checkers man.

Roni March 2nd, 2021 5:44 PM

i knew you were definitely a higher rank than 600+. just need to weed out the distractions heh.

ZeoStar March 2nd, 2021 5:44 PM

Chess has ruined my ability to play checkers.

I tried to go back and I just can't do it for some reason. the board feels so cramped.

ninestarryskies March 2nd, 2021 5:45 PM

I used to play Dragon Draughts on my copy of Spyro: Season of Flame for HOURS on GBA, which was literally just checkers.

Roni March 2nd, 2021 5:47 PM

i used to play checkers with high school friends back in the day. we used to use blue and red bottle caps and it was fun. i don't recall winning a single game tho...

ZeoStar March 2nd, 2021 5:48 PM

when i get the king promoted in checkers i just move it back and fourth like a degenerate.

Roni March 2nd, 2021 5:51 PM

lmao yeah i've never done that so i can't relate. have you ever experienced having 3 or more pieces captured consecutively?

ZeoStar March 2nd, 2021 5:53 PM

That's exactly what happened when i turned on checkers vs a bot last week.

I just closed the game right off.

Roni March 2nd, 2021 5:54 PM

oh dear. i hope you recover soon~ took me a couple days personally lol.

ZeoStar March 2nd, 2021 5:56 PM

I feel like with chess there's just much more control over the board.

Roni March 2nd, 2021 5:57 PM

there's just much more variation with as to how the pieces move really. i feel more free to move around in chess and can plan better for some reason.

ZeoStar March 2nd, 2021 6:04 PM

for something amusing, you can go on lichess and turn the bot up to 3,000 elo.

it turns into "don't win. survive".

Roni March 2nd, 2021 6:05 PM

will definitely give that a try lmao. wouldn't a grandmaster find a way to beat it tho?

ZeoStar March 2nd, 2021 6:25 PM

Shockingly, nope. Grandmasters can hardly even get a draw with it. Magnus is 2875 ELO, but when you get that high even a tiny amount makes a world of difference.

Roni March 2nd, 2021 6:37 PM

damn i underestimate just how strong these chess bots are nowadays. i remember the days of Deep Blue where it was an achievement to beat Kasparov once out of like 5 tries.

ZeoStar March 2nd, 2021 6:45 PM

I believe Kasparov returned for a tournament against modern high level players in 2017. He placed 8th out of 10th. In 2016 he beat 15 players at once.

Not bad for someone who's been retired for over a decade.

Oh, and a fun fact you might know. Magnus did play Kasparov when Magnus was only 13 years old. Magnus was up material, but kasparov saved it with a draw.

Roni March 2nd, 2021 6:49 PM

man's still accurate af that's for sure. hopefully his mind powers on like that.

i've been thinking about downloading his Masterclass for a while now.

ZeoStar March 2nd, 2021 6:52 PM

This guy is incredible for learning https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6hOVYvNn79Sl1Fc1vx2mYA

It's why I've been rising up in ELO so quickly.

Roni March 2nd, 2021 7:28 PM

ooh i haven't heard of this guy yet. nice to see someone linking something other than Gothamchess huehue. i'll perhaps give him a look later on.

ZeoStar March 2nd, 2021 7:34 PM

I actually prefer him much more than gothamchess.

He's an IM rated around 2300, but he explains in a way everybody can understand, and takes players of all levels seriously. If he gets matched with a 500 ELO player, he takes them with the same attitude as a 2,000 rated player. He usually doesn't end games early, so he can explain things fully.

Roni March 2nd, 2021 7:49 PM

ah, respectful. i appreciate that out of him then :) excellent for the community to grow further as new players won't feel like they're being belittled or anything.

Happy to see you guys are enjoying VPP though, maybe we'll see more back and forths?~
I'm not too educated in checkers and chess and stuff like that, though it reminds me how my boyfriend's recently been learning mahjong and shogi and how I've got no clue what's going on there, but it seems like he's enjoying it.

Very hungry currently! Waiting for my food to arrive after ordering... an amount of food I will not state, haha.

Was away yesterday since I had some not so great stuff to get through, but I think it's better at this point. I've spent most of today talking with friends and realized I hadn't popped in yet today, so I wanted to say yahallo and steal some wins.~

Hope you're doing well too.

ZeoStar March 3rd, 2021 5:42 PM

@Aisaka it was actually that brief conversation we had which entirely ignited my interest back into chess.

Since then my points have doubled and I've become way better as a player. I hope one day when the covid situation ends to join a group on my campus

That's really sweet of you, thank you. It's likely another dip into a depressive phase, but I'm happy I got all my important work out of the way before it hit, and it shouldn't be too bad since I'm better at handling it all now. It's usually a rough transition that smooths out over time.

Of course we missed the Queen! 👸

Tbh - you never heard me say this ok - but there's more to life than VPP :)

I post here because I enjoy it, VPP is an awesome bonus though! You ever thought raising the cute little things?

I used to play chess but it became boring and stopped being enjoyable for me. I do still play random chess sometimes, when my brain allows, but I'm not quite as sharp as I used to be. It is wonderful seeing so many here enjoy it though, its an awesome game!

I won't ask about your bad stuff, but I'm sending virtual hugs your way, and I hope it everything is back to normal for you soon as 😊

Good reasons to post all the same, since I'm not really into VPP I just post cause I enjoy it and people are cool. I've thought about it before but I'm not sure how manageable it would be for me, I'm not... great with keeping on top of that sort of thing, haha.

I'm not the world most scintillating conversationalist, and I'm certainly not the quickest replier, but my PMs are always open if you ever need anything, and I'm sure many others here will say the same :)

You have literally out grinded like 20,000 people 😅

I think a lot of people get swept up in the rush to "do it all" in VPP, and it can definitely seem daunting because of that. The best course of action is actually to take it casually and enjoy it. If I'm already making posts anyway, then why not collect cute little friends along the way? :)

VPP seems so fun now, I don't even know how long it's been around. When I was on the social media team I don't even remember it existing. Also you guys seem so dedicated to it and put so much effort into the entire thing, it's admirable.

i have a somewhat addictive personality so that explains why i'm so into it atm and invade literally every thread i see where i can contribute. i'm glad there's others now who are as invested as i am, because it felt so lonely the first few months hehe.

ZeoStar March 3rd, 2021 6:57 PM

I can't classify myself as addictive, but actually very competitive and I try to be good at everything.

It's why chess, even as a hobby turned into "Must be 1,000 points".

Roni March 3rd, 2021 7:02 PM

i was pretty competitive back in the day myself. i guess i've just been disappointed again and again since a good bunch of my friend circle was way better than me at literally everything i tried to get into. FPS games, chess, basketball, badminton, table tennis, etc. it always put me down.

If you recall I made a thread in off topic about being intelligent. That was actually because I was upset that I wasn't improving fast enough. I don't know anybody into chess so I can't play over the board, until I join a club or something.

but yeah never been too great at sports. I even broke my wrist learning to roller skate

Roni March 3rd, 2021 9:16 PM

best of luck! hope you find a good club that helps you improve :D

i was sort of ok at physical sports like basketball, but i couldn't handle full court running for more than 10 minutes, so i would always get gassed out right away. i was happy being a reserve shooting random three pointers from the sideline lol. sorry about your wrist though, an experience like that would've definitely put me off from roller skating for a while.

Yeeeah the competitive side of me also thinks "What if I get so good at chess now I join the club as the best player". But I try to remember the goal should always be improvement and fun, not winning everything.

Oh for sure. I can't even bike for more than 10 minutes without feeling tired. It's funny because I'm relatively healthy weight, more on the slim side. It's just that doing that kind of physical exercise after not doing it for a while is difficult. Broken bones are not fun. I'm just glad that every time I've fractured something it's been arm related, not leg.

dang i wish i had that level of confidence lol. with the amount of bikes you have i was assuming you biked regularly, like once a day or something? also, goodness how many times have you snapped your arm? i'm lucky to not have suffered something like that yet...

hb make it look as close to your profile as possible

I was biking multiple times a day, but the weather got snowy and icy, after that it's been unbearably cold. Some of it was just lack of motivation, but more so the weather. I had one major arm fracture aside from my wrist, but I snapped two bones in one time. Amusingly, it was a regular fall. I just landed in a terrible way.
