Puppies with a new home & Gaming as of late

So, my mother-in-law came over today to be able to have me look at her girlfriend’s and son’s laptops… One had a faulty mobo or processor or possibly memory … it’d lock up within seconds of getting anywhere in the boot sequence, even right when it got into the BIOS setup, it immediately locked up. While the other had a hard drive failure in the form of a missing file necessary for windows to start. Of course, that could mean one of a few things, Virus, Accidental deletion (why would anyone go to system32 directory and delete something? who knows), or a bad sector forming. She didn’t bring the recovery / reinstall CD’s so I couldn’t try to do that to recover the missing file.

They' then got to see the puppies for the first time. They almost immediately chose to take the ‘dirty one’. After being around for a while outside with them all, they decided to take the striped black one too. So now we only have 4 left to give away. One male (a black one that looks almost like a Rottweiler) and 3 females (a white with large black spots, and two brown ones). Although we may end up keeping the lightest of the two brown ones, and finding an alternate home for their STUPID mother.

Now, as for my gaming, yea, I’ve not updated this in a while, but I also haven't seen anyone leave any comments, so I’m pretty sure nobody’s read any… other than maybe a couple family members that may have stumbled through my different social networking chains to find it.

Anywhos, I’ve still been playing Fantasy Earth Zero, and have gotten even better. I’ve given lessons to other people that are trying to get as good or even better than me. But I am getting rather upset at some of the hackers. Namely the ones that have modified their character models to make it so that hidden scouts (what I like to be) are showing as not being hidden, or majorly highlighted. I am surprised when I see a bow scout able to land any and ALL hits on me when I’m at a full run and they have to stop for each shot. Oh well, I guess the mini-flinch I get when I get hit keeps me within distance. But that only explains a straight line path, I’ve found even swerving paths that some of them are still able to land every shot no problem.

I’ve also gotten to the point in Monster Hunter 3 that I’ve got to kill the Lagicarus or whatever it’s name is. But of course, to do that, I really do need to update some of my gear, namely my weaponry. I just got the ability to make the long sword, and it is quite nice. The only problem I have is that I have gotten kind of used to the lance, seeing as I can ‘turtle’ bosses by hiding behind my shield so they can’t hit me. But I really do want to get the switch axe upgrades so that I can have some high damage. Yea I may not be able to block stuff, but it’ll still be nice.

Well, until next time… possibly see you online if you’re doing that on MH3
