Meph and Yeebaagooon

Today is Yeebaagooon's birthday. Lets all wish him a happy birthday!

But that's not the only thing. Yeebaagooon's latest project, The Caverns of Kronos, has been officially announced today. Check it out at AoMH!

I promised myself that this would never happen, but it appears that I was wrong. I've decided to leave AoMH. I don't really know why. I don't seem to be posting here or going on AoM any more. I come here every day and try to post, but I always feel as though there's something stopping me. I guess I've just lost interest... It's a shame, because I really didn't want this to happen.

I promise to return some day. After all, I've been here since I was 11 years old! I'll definitely start designing with Yeebaagooon again (hopefully soon) and that will hopefully allow me to get back on my feet. And I'll also be coming back to check up on the fan patch.

Until then, bye!

Paparazzi can be so annoying for celebrities. They invade the celebs' normal lives purely for profit.

In most counties, their actions are illegal. So why don't the celeb's just give the paparazzi a taste of their own medicine? Just take pictures of the paparazzi! That would scare them off!

As you all (hopefully) know from my biography, I moderate the site Ace Attorney Online. I don't just moderate the site though. I'm always trying to help the site's multilungual admin, Unas, to improve the site visually and features-wise. I also do a few other jobs.

In case you don't know, Ace Attorney is a video game series where you play as a defence lawyer (in the main series) or a prosecutor (in the spin-off series). Ace Attorney Online tries to simulate the game with fan-made cases. Users of the site can make their own cases using the Trial Editor and then play them using the Trial Player. Sounds simple, right?

Some cases are amazingly well-written and some can be rather terrible. One of my other jobs is to feature the really good trials, in the same way that Wikipedia's sysops must feature good articles. I need to review trials (when asked) to ensure they meet my quality standards.

Anyway, the Trial Editor is currently at version 4. Soon, it will be version 5. In version 5, the user interface will have a complete overhaul to make it much more user friendly. These interfaces will be based off mock-ups that I've been making. Would you like to take a look?

I've finally written my autobiography. You can view it on the "Meph" page. Don't forget that you can read Yeebaagooon's autobiography on his page as well.

Yeebaa is on holiday for the next two weeks in a villa in Sicily.

Enjoy the holiday, Yeeb.

For those of you that know, me and Yeebaa have planned to make a map entitled 'The Wrath of the British Weather' for quite a while. We included it in 'Desert Conflict' as a mini-game and it involed ten levels of dodging very deadly and random British weather. But the thing about that mini-game was that it was based on a true story. Now, we don't really have meteors or tornados, but we do have lightning, sun and most definately rain!

The thing about the weather in Britain is that it can vary greatly depending on were you are. The north-western half of England has more rain than the south-eastern half. But that's not the only difference. The weather in Liverpool can be completely different to the weather in Blackpool (they're only 45km away).

It was a nice day today. Blue sky and hot sun. However, by the time I got home from school, the clouds appeared. It was still hot, but not very exciting. At half-past 7 (pm),  it started to rain. Five minutes later, the rain stopped. Seriously, what the hell!?

Us Brits are always complaining about the weather. It's either too hot or too cold or too wet or too dry. And if there's been no rain in three days, the news will say, "Oh shit, there's a drought."

All I want is it to stay nice and sunny...

There was a protest at my school today with my year (Year 10) and some people from other years. There's been a lot of controversy lately, because our headteacher was setting a new rule regarding uniform. All of the girls in my school wear sexy short skirts. However, the head - she's never allowed short skirts. She wants all of the girls to wear long skirts that are long enough to almost touch their knees. Sigh...

A protest was organised on Facebook by Ellis [surname hidden]. He planned on having everyone protesting on the school field. A lot of people in the school went to join in, but it was pretty rubbish. All they did was sit down. There were no picket fork signs and no one was shouting. I think half of them didn't give a shit and just did it so that they could miss out on lessons. And when the teachers came, the "protesters" didn't stay put. They just did as they were told and went back to class. That's just shit.

In the aftermath, Ellis was expelled as well as some others.

It was fun while it lasted though.

UPDATE: Ellis wasn't expelled after all, which is good to hear! I think he was suspended for about a day or two, though, if I recall correctly.

As well as AoM stuff, me and Yeebaa like to talk about things going on in our personal lives.

Seven days ago, I got the three red rings of death. I've had my Xbox 360 for over two years now, so I was in the three year warranty. I had to go to xbox.com and sign up for it to be repaired. However, it wouldn't accept my 360's serial number (typical...) so my mum had to call Microsoft.

Luckally, it was a free-phone 0800 number, so we were okay, but we still had problems. It was one of those automated things that recognise your voice. My mum didn't know that (she never knew those kind of things existed), so she kept redialling.  However, I told her it was a voice recognition one, so she called back.

It asked her, "what is your call regarding? A repair, Xbox LIVE accounts or [something else I can't remember]?"

My mum said, "repair!"

"I'm sorry, I don't understand what you're saying. Please try again."

"Repair!"

"Would you like help with the online service or would you like an agent?"

"Agent!"

"I'm sorry, I don't understand what you're saying. What is your call regarding? A repair, Xbox LIVE accounts or [something else I can't remember]?"

"REPAIR!!! REPAIR, REPAIR, REPAIR, REPAIR, REPAIR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

We eventually got there in the end. It was a nice man we spoke to, but it was an Indian call centre. Sigh...

We got the console shipped today at about half past four. Now I just need to wait for two to three weeks for the Germans to fix it and send it back.

UPDATE: Once I sent my console away, the process was completed in just a week! The Microsoft German Repair Centre sent me a brand new console! It was a fantastic service! I even got a free month o Xbox LIVE Gold!

The site has been created! Me and Yeebaa finally have a place to put all of our works and announce them. We hope you enjoy our new site.
