Other stuff I'm doing: Stalking mai waifu.
Job hunting to keep internet on the table.
Not updating my profile or tending to my dead forum.
Just generally being a pervert.
Things I finished almost somewhat recently: MM! (Hentai Ball Z) Metroid Prime (Such a successful, somehow nostalgic 3D transformation of a 2D metroidvania) Shining Force II (Stuff explodes, everyone goes flying, then the characters call to make sure Ferios is okay before they even think about the princess) Dungeons & Dolls (Finally done collecting every piece of equipment)
The Old Autobiography:
Ferios' life was all about helping people. He was born with an afro and a full beard in February of 1832. In the spring of 1832, he uttered his first word. 'Llama.' His second and third words were 'tsundere' and 'floccinaucinihilipilification' respectively. Later that year, as his vocal skills increased, he began to quote actors he saw on TV as well as president John Calvin Coolidge.
Ferios grew up quickly, since he'd been born without any parents, and worked as a meteorologist for a local news station. When he got older, his mother sent him to law school. After he spent a few years there, they kicked him out and he went back to his hometown, Largeville, which is supposedly somewhere in Turkey.
In 1861, Ferios accidentally started the American Civil War when he told a racist joke he'd heard from his friend, Jason, in the middle of Los Angeles. He immediately joined the army in attempt to make up for his misdeed, and was promoted to General his second day. While serving as Corporal, he invented the cotton gin and the electric toaster. He is best known during this time period for when he went to battle against a throng of angry hot dog salesman armed only with various condiments and his bloated appetite. This is now known as Mustard's Last Stand.
Ferios left the army in 1813 and decided to pursue his dream: to one day wear a pair of pants. It took him several years to accomplish, but in the summer of 1903, he finally did just that.
"I just put them on one leg at a time," Ferios announced to his neighbor, Dave Thomas, after the event. "It was hard at first, especially when that midget tried to get back out. But I managed to call for help and, aided by my wife, the Beardless Woman, I shoved him back into the pocket. After that, it was no hassle just to put the damn things on and be done with the whole ordeal. I never thought it'd be so easy. I think I'll go for briefs next!" Unfortunately, the midget in his tighty-whities wasn't as forgiving.
Ferios died in 18.. 95 in a tragic hoola hoop accident. Several days before the event, Ferios had been seen fawning over his 'waifu', an asian girl(?) by the name of Wun Jatarase, right under the smooth chin of his then-girlfriend, the Beardless Schoolgirl. Ferios reportedly ran through the neighborhood park the next day screaming about how he wasn't homosexual. After this, ignoring the local authorities that were trying to arrest him for public indecency, he jumped off of the roof of a nine-story stack of books.
But he got better.
The next day, as Ferios was finally leaving his bedroom closet, a well-aimed hoola hoop crashed through the window and struck him. Ferios took two points of damage and died instantly. The hoola hooper, formerly employed by Ferios as an 'underpants charmer', was a little person who now goes by Gary Coleman. Despite his open hatred toward Ferios due to his short... Employment term, Coleman was tried for involuntary manslaughter. He was acquitted after saying his catchphrase to the judge, who then experienced several consecutive strokes of varying degrees and had to be rushed to a nearby hospital.
Ferios still lives a happy life in... Bigville, with his adopted African children and beardless wife to this day. He can be reached at several email addresses, none of which he desires to be placed in the easily bot-copied text block of a public profile.

As always, my visual novel list can be seen here:
And now for a massive tower small hotel of banners.
Hey Feri, tell me. You bought Zero Escape right? But did you try out those adapters making it posible to copy games on memory card and play them off it, like with first ds? I heard those work only up to a certain firmware model, any ways of downgrading in case i get a console with newer firmware already installed?
Not that I want to take all credit for myself and maybe Aza did think about the very same idea as me but yesterday I was the one (ME MUAHAHA~!) who mentioned creating our own club for our disscussions, bah, I already joined one that tyger created so yeah, it'd probably be the best choice for us if we're still wanting to talk with each other and not only on Skype (yeah, I was really in for that new club since I'm not so often on Skype ;p).
Oh, so I should talk with Aza about that translation stuff. Thanks anyway \o.
Hey, you knnow what? That's actually pretty good idea, that one with Skype I mean. I don't really like instant messangers but when you put it like that I might even start using Skype more often especially for you guys. So, you have my vote in that one Feri and I'd be happy if other said the same thing coz it'd be plain sad if we just stopped contacting with each other. As you've said VNPC was awesome and I'd like to keep people from Awesomeness Group in touch.
Or well... We can just set up another club just for us there. I don't really know if there is something like "closed club" which requires invitation to join it @MAL but even if not we would manage somehow. Well, that's my idea at least but I'd happy either with that or Skype (wstar16 is my nick there btw) .
By stuff members I mean people which are working with you on some TL project... Or am I mistaken and that was Aza who was in charge there? Anyway 9 characters you say? Somehow you cheered me up right now... But seriously, I'm asking because maybe if I'd see how much characters people who are TLing stuff know I might try TLing something myself. Well I still have to play that Hanahira in JP to see how far can I go.
I'm here to pay my final respects... err say goodbye.
VNPC has been one of the best communities (who am I kidding, the best) I've had the honor to be a a part of and it's quite difficult to see it falling apart but the process began too long ago to stop it and I guess now is the most convenient time to jump off the bandwagon since as you said, the club has been lacking that extra kick lately. Well, what's done is done. I'll keep lurking it for a bit to see how far it'll go. Not that hard to pull off since I don't even read the posts of half the commentators.
Anyway, just wanted to say goodbye for now and I'll catch you on Skype sometime in the future for the good measure. Also, this.
I got here just after reading your last (that's so scary right now, when it really was the "last") msg in VNPC just to express my sadness over your decision. On the other side I'll still have you talk to me in FCE so we won't totally break communication but still... It's just kinda sad and I couldn't keep quiet about it.
And I totally approve of you wanting to go more into translating stuff. I'd go there myself and I probably will do that after picking a little bit more of vocabulary and kanjis. Tbh, I'd be glad if you'd tell me how of kanji characters do your stuff members know right now. It might help me in measuring my own skill at the moment so I'd grateful for any answer \o/.
