Granted, but you only ever get to open for Justin Beiber

I wish I had a better computer. >.>

Captains log, Stardate....oh wait, no, that is star trek not guardians.
Eh, that is fine, I am not honestly doing either. Just keeping track of my thoughts so I can look back on them later.

Been playing for two days now. I have got a full party and completed the tutorial. Which is awesome. I honestly thought this was just going to be another one of those click bait games we played some years ago. Hatch the dragon, get people to click the dragon so it grows, breed the dragon, get people to hatch new egg. I was actually quite surprised to find out that this game seems to have more to offer than just getting people to click things, though as of yet, I can not seem to figure out how to use them. The battling feature, the egg hunt feature, tons of stuff that is eluded to that so far elude me.

The community seems awesome here. I have yet to see a forum post that had any sort of flame or rage to it at all. It is a nice change from what I normally see on the internet. Two other users sent me gifts. FriskyScout sent me a Ralts plushie, which again, I have no clue how to view, but I love Ralts so I am sure I will appreciate it once I do. Another person EmmyFalcon sent me a bag with tons of stuff in it. Like lemonade and a emerald key. Which....again, I do not know how to use. I think I am seeing a pattern here, but I am sure the stuff will be incredibly useful once I do.

The forums even have a roleplay section. God I have not Roleplayed in years..... like 12 of them. Can I even do a poke'mon themed roleplay? I used to roleplay fights, demons, magic, that sort of stuff. part of me feels that setting myself into the role of a poke'mon or a trainer would limit me in ways I could not imagine. The other part of me immediately feels bad for looking down on them initially. They are better at this than I am, hell I am not even sure I would be capable of doing what they can do. I respect them.

I suppose I will check back in tomorrow with more updates.....and more things I have no clue how to use. Hopefully it does not stay a habit for long. I normally figure out games fast.

Uh....self explanatory on the what I would think. Just needing more info on the Why, Yea?

Me and my lady and a few friends play League of Legends and we USED to all have the names AzulNova, AzulKonan, AzulSayin, AzulMitch, and you get the idea.

Thanks to the Azul part, every single person on the American servers would assume...well... you know. "BR?"

And it got old. Fast.

So after massively geeking out over the news that Gaurdians was getting a movie. Which I still love btw. I changed my name to starlord. AzulKonan decided to take it a step further to become Dancing Groot. So I changed to Dancing Starlord..... and now we have DancingStarlord, DancingGroot, IDoNotDanceDrax, IWillStabYouGamora, and well you get the idea.

The names all just kind of stuck, we use them everywhere.

Just like Pony on page 1. I would like to be a Ponyta, Just running all day for the sake of running. The pure unadulterated freedom of it. Plus the being covering in flames could lead to some legit pick up lines.

Though going off my personality, Sentret. Im always finding random things and coveting them like they are treasures until people take them away from me. :,( :,(

:,( :,( Just remember that the next time you rip that nugget your little guy found away from him. :,( That nugget was loved, that nugget was given a name. Its name was phillip. Phillip was my best friend. And you just ripped him from my arms and sold him. :,(

Honestly Im more of a one piece guy myself, but I digress.
I lean more heavily towards the Digi side of things. However, my daughter disagrees with me, so we remain together in Poke world.

Well I would not call myself a newer programmer. I went to school for software almost 10 years ago (Christ that makes me feel old). I never ended up doing anything with the shiny piece of paper they gave me when I finished my classes. Its more of a hobby than anything. Aside from doing some freelance web design on the side and some freelance computer repair....which both have very little to do with software... I never touch the stuff. I am a software guy by hobby, not trade.

Which coding languages do you hate?
Not a lot of them honestly. The thing I hated can not truly be called a language after all. I remember the very first "programming" we ever had to do in class being with PYTHON. And I hated the thing. You literally could not program the darn thing wrong. Bad variable names, bad logic loops, it did not matter. the code still worked. It felt like cheating.

Which coding languages do you love?
Java. No not Java script. Java. I loved Java down to its core, since it was hands down the basics of everything and I could do literally anything I wanted to if I was willing to put in the time. I still have the first ever Program I ever wrote in Java on my desktop, both as a reminder to myself and for Nostalgia. A blackjack program that I got an A on despite messing up on majorly, I forgot to teach the program how to shuffle the deck, so after dealing 52 cards the whole thing broke. I remember saying a prayer as my instructor was grading it. Flinching as he started spamming the Deal button. He stopped at 47 cards. I have never finished or fixed this issue. Its a good memory for me.

Absurd Syntax
I think after my last two answers, my answer here should be pretty implied. If this were politics people that read this would be screaming that I was a republican. Since it is coding can we simply call me old school? No grandpa cracks please.

Comments
If your not good at leaving comments. GET GOOD AT LEAVING COMMENTS. For anyone that has to work with multiple people on the same project there is nothing worse than pulling up what your working on, seeing 1017 changes made since the last time you saw it, and not seeing a single note left by the person before you as to why they felt the need to completely remove or alter a logic loop you spent 3 days working on. It is even more frustrating when you do it to yourself, forget to note, and than wonder 3 days later what the heck you were thinking, que alchohol abuse. I am religious with leaving myself and others comments. Even on simple little things that at the time seem self explanatory.

Tips
Do not Reinvent the wheel.
What I mean by this is quite simple. If your working on coding a elaborate clock for...Christ i do not know, reasons. Do not write out code for counting seconds and minutes. That stuff exists out there and you will be wasting hours hashing out code that literally a million people have done already. The world of coders is a lot like the world of smokers. you need a cigarette, someone will loan you one, and if someone is in need, you provide. the smaller pieces of what your writing can and will be given to you by others if you ask. I AM NOT SAYING PLAGIARIZE! Do not copy and paste a program and call it yours. Ask the creator and than make the code your own by adding to it, modifying it, and using it as a small piece of something amazing that you yourself is working on. Christ the number of times Mr Shoemaker took points off my assignments for hand writing pieces of projects that I could have readily and easily had available to me was staggering and this exact same piece of advice is almost verbatim what he told me every time he did.

Honestly, while I am intrigued by the New player box (joined last night via facebook advertisments) Im more interested in how people got the 6 pokemon into their signatures and how they made the train buttons.
