Traitor!

Yep! I actually did productive things with my life for a few days!

Then blew it all out of the water with 9 to 10 hours of straight god damn gaming. I even freaking forgot to eat dinner!


Productive things? What are those? I don't think I've done anything productive since December.

Going to be without internet for the next six days or so. Maybe less, but probably not.

Let's get this simulation done so we can troll Cami by finishing the mission before they return!

Um, I mean, we'll miss you!

I'm not sure on me. I haven't done anything massively productive. 2012 was supposed to be the year of "Change" for me (this sounds like some political ad), but it hasn't really. I still do what I used to, which is not much of anything. Back in August last year, my sister and I started an RP site (and were already a part of one as well), then joined NationStates RP's too, and now these RP's have pretty much ruined my life, again, like I did with an online game. I don't regret doing it though. I kind of just had a bad start to 2012, so I had a hard time changing anything. I really do need to get my act together though.

six days? SIX DAYS?! MY LIFE WOULD BE OVER WITHOUT INTERNET FOR 6 DAYS!

Okay, not really, but I probably would sadly find it too difficult not to have internet for 6 days, since I use it every god damn day.

And the simulation is still going? Crap, I hope my slowness isn't still tying it up then.

If you guys can finish the actual mission in six days, I won't even be mad I missed it. I reckon that by the time I'm back, you'll have just reached Kildare, and I'll have one, maybe two pages to catch up on. :p

It's OK. I'll make up for it by stalking deer, and fighting cougars with my bear hands. Yes, my bear hands. I only wrestle cougars after I've punched a bear to death, and made gloves out of his paws.

And if we're in Kildare by the time you get back, then something's gone wrong with the posting speed here :P

I guess this is among the instances of saying "a boat" or "a boot" instead of "about", occasionally changing out the "s" sound with "z", being indecisive as to whether to use American English or British English (read: Tire Centre), and being impossible to tell apart from Americans beyond whether they use "eh" or "know what I mean".

Name: Vika Arturovich
Gender: F
Age: 16
Nationality: Russian
Height: 5' 4"
Weight: 110 lb
Hair: Blonde
Eyes: Blue
Costume (if any): None, though she wears a pair of glasses that prevent her vulnerability to sensory overload from affecting her.
Abilities: Superhuman intellect (jack-of-all-trades type, not Iron man type), superhuman sensory perception (lets her do things like see X-rays and the like, smell mood or skin rafts, read by feeling ink...like what daredevil does, but including sight, however, makes her vulnerable to things like loud noises, bright lights, etc, although she's designed technology to mitigate this)
Alignment: Hero, sort of--she's a little too concerned about the greater good as opposed to the immediate good.
Brief Bio: She was actually the child of another Russian superhero who'd spoken out against the government quite often, and when she hit her teens was hunted down by said government. She spent part of her childhood just running with him--she actually began to improve upon his ideas, even--but eventually, her father was killed-by Russians, not by vampires as would speak volumes of praise of the Russian government. Shortly after that, she met up with one of the school's associates, and the rest is in the present.

Just a note from somebody not the O.P., the "alignment" section is just the dorm assignment chosen by the legal guardians or even student herself should she not have parents.

It was included, though. She'd definitely pick hero... :)

It's primarily Newfies (Newfoundland and Labrador'ers, also called Newfoundlanders) that say "aboot" (the only people that say "aboot" live on the East Coast). To my knowledge, nobody says "aboat" instead of "about".

We don't have a store called Tire Centre. We do have a store called Canadian Tire though. The logo is a very large "Yield" sign, with a maple leaf in the centre.

I can't think of any instances where was replace an 's' with a 'z', though we do pronounce 'z' as "zed" and not "zee".

And there is one very easy way to tell us apart from American's of the United States: ask us what we drive to work. Any answer other than "a polar bear" means the person is not Canadian.

Note to self: First, make a sarcasm sign. Second, ponder making a hyperbole sign. Third, do not flanderize one person as equaling all of Canada (the in-joke is hard to notice when your in-joke has never been brought to the forums before). Fourth, do not compromise your "CA" status in "AFGNCAAP" by specifying your nationality. Fifth, stop writing notes and actually make the sarcasm sign.

AP, I think it's pretty obvious what country you come from.

Also, I think you need to get your Humor Metertm re-calibrated, because mine was going off the charts when I typed that post up.

If the criteria for being thought to be Canadian includes usage of "eh" and "know what I mean", I'm half there!

And yay, new people!
But no new IC posts. I am very disappoint.

I'd say it's around 17:00. Timeskips will be had soon, probably tomorrow IRL.

There's also a problem with AP having Makato rushed to the infirmary; Scott wouldn't be doing his rant while two of the main targets of his ire were passing out or whatever :P
