Questionable Questing

Pinky and a Ring finger are both at about 70% responsiveness, and I can't really feel them. Lower part of my hand is numb, and chronic aches in my elbow and lower forearm. Basically when I type I either don't hit the left shift or I do it a half second too late, which is a pain in the ass like you wouldn't believe.

Intensifying Quiescence

Shouldn't be permanent, when I get my taxes back I'll get a new computer chair and see if that helps. If it gets worse, then it's surgery time, which isn't going to be great.

Kelenas

Ouch, that sounds rather bad. I'll cross my fingers that you'll get better without the need for surgery, then!

Intensifying Quiescence

Pish, cross your fingers? I expect at least half a dozen visits to whichever awesome cathedral you're closest to.

Kelenas

Not sure where the nearest cathedral is, but I can definitely keep my fingers crossed for you. ;-)

Walkir

Any progress at getting better?

Intensifying Quiescence

I've been plinking away at getting better at eight finger typing, but other than getting used to it it's not really improving. I've been messing with various projects to train though, we'll see.

Walkir

Shit. Sucks to hear.

Kelenas

Been a couple of months. How you doing? Your hand any better?

Intensifying Quiescence

Building a new quest as we speak. I'd say it's 70% ready for posting.

Hand stuff is mostly gone, vacation worked wonders. It still twinges a bit now and then and it's sore on occasion, but functionality has been restored happily enough.

Walkir

Good to hear, man.

But a new quest? Pity.

Kelenas

Glad to hear about your hand.

Somewhat wondering why you're starting a new quest instead of continuing one of those you've already got running? Ie, Gods and Steel or Airships 2?

Intensifying Quiescence

Airships 2's system bothers me, and Gods and Steel is hella intimidating to get back into. I have some epilogue written up that I'll finish and post someday.

Also, I just want to try something new.

Kelenas

=,(

Intensifying Quiescence

I'll return to Dominions someday, that's for sure. That world is just ridiculously juicy when it comes to lore and setting. Airships... i just don't feel like the system was working. I'd need to rework things totally, and it's a bit less insane to start a new project than to try to zombify an old one.

Walkir

Problem is I love your worlds and grew attached to your chars, so leaving them behind, especially like in Airships 2, sucks. We didn't get past the beginner missions, damnit.

Intensifying Quiescence

Thanks, I appreciate the sentiment. I really do. The characters for Airships 2 were well crafted, and I really do regret leaving them behind, I have pages and pages of notes written about them. That said, I'd rather start something that actually gives me the inspiration to write than try to rekindle something that will probably leave me burned out again.

Intensifying Quiescence

Also I've designed a fairly robust system that I'm really optimistic will play well! It's set up on a modified CK2 system that should be recognizable and easy to use while allowing for an absolutely amazing amount of movement and transition capability.

Walkir

Please try to find twins with more nudes to their name this time, though. *whistles*

Kelenas

Well, with Airship 2 we were still early enough in the game you could do a "reboot"; starting over with a new system, but re-using the existing characters and plotlines.
