Make Way for Minecraft!

3/10/2021

Yes, it's true! I have a brand spanking new game! Minecraft! I blame my son for this one! He got me started with Minecraft and I have been hooked ever since! It's a fascinating game that lets you do just about anything you want, play anyway you want, and build anything you want! I find it very interesting and can play it for hours if I'm not careful!

There are several different things to do in Minecraft - at least the way I see it. You start off by gathering the bare necessities - food, shelter, a bed. You start by breaking things down with your hand - well, your character's hand. You can "punch a tree" for wood and find some sheep for wool to make a bed, which you will need after playing for 10 minutes, because then it's night-time and the monsters come out! And when you first join, you are in no condition to take on the night forces! So, what can you do? Why, sleep, of course! If you sleep, they can't get you and the night passes in a few moments and then you can be off to play some more!

I will try to put up pictures of the things I have built after I make a section for Minecraft. That's what I like - building and farming and making red-stone contraptions, although I'm not very good at it yet. However, there are a huge number of YouTubers who are good at this game and they all have varying degrees of skill at all the different things you can do in Minecraft. I like to watch the builders and designers and the red stone experts, although the red stone people do get me a little confused at times if their project it just a little too complicated for me! And they will always start out by saying it's a "simple build". lol! Yeah, right!

Update!!

So, my idea got 49 votes YAY and 0 NAY! And now they have sent it on to the developers! Can't wait for them to implement it!

I have posted an idea to improve the game, Elvenar. The thread on the forum is HERE. I would appreciate everyone who plays to please vote for it! It would save us a lot of clicking and make it easier to give Knowledge Points to Ancient Wonders from a member's name in a message. They put a poll up and there's been a good response! If you want to see the poll, you can go to the link to the thread - it also takes you to the poll! Thanks so much! ~ Tru

Fish Paradise

6/16/2020

0 Comments

My newest game - Fish Paradise - is very similar to the other fish game I was playing, Fish Live. I couldn't find Fish Live maybe because I had an Android phone before and now I have an iPhone. I'm really not sure the reason.

But I like this game just as well, so it really doesn't matter to me. It has more tanks - they call them reefs though, which sounds nicer I think. More like you are out in the ocean.

Here are some screenshots - which you can take in game which is really cool too! And just to let you know - the ones with the same background are the same reefs - they just have different fish in them and/or more or less decorations, that is, coral.

What's in Which Reef

Here is what I keep in each reef:

Reef #1: These are just fish that I like. I want this reef to be my favorite one since I will see it more often.
Reef #2: A lot of these fish are the offspring of fish I've bred. There are some others in there that I'm not sure what to do with just yet but have plans for when I gain more reefs (there's 10 in all! Yay!)
Reef #3:These are breeders. There are Challenges all the time. I think you can start a new challenge just as soon as you finish the one you are on! It just keeps going, from what I can tell. See Challenges for more information.
Reef #4: These are fish I have for one of two reasons: 1.) I am just trying to grow some for the coins to progress in the game OR 2.) There was a Task that required me to buy so many of a certain kind of fish.
Reef #5: These are here for the same reason as #4, with the exception of once every so often, after completing a certain amount of tasks, we get gifts of 5 fish. Those 5 fish will be in this reef. Now, as I get more reefs, I plan on keeping those gifted 5 fish in the last reef, so it won't always be in reef 5.

Mamie's Cakes and Puzzles!

1/24/2020

Just wanted to share with everyone my sister's amazing cakes and, since she started doing puzzles, those too. The first pictures are smaller than the others - that's because she was using her old phone. Since she's got a new phone now, the pictures are much bigger.

First, the cakes...

And now, the puzzles she's put together...

Piceggs! Watch it Grow! Stage 4 !

1/30/2017

111 Comments

Only 2 more stages to complete! Please comment below. =)

OK, I know this will be new to a lot of people who come here, but I used to make PicEggs on a forum and "sold" them and their different stages to others on the forum. It provided a creative outlet for me, and some game currency to use to buy things for my avatar. (OK, don't laugh! It was fun!)

So, basically, you would get an egg from me, then when people wanted it to "grow", I would change it out for them to the next stage. Well, that forum is now gone, but I got to thinking...I do have this site, so I thought I would make a go at trying to see if we could get
a PicEgg to grow as a group. Everyone will have to pitch in!

This is the way it'll work:

The PicEgg will grow after 10 comments.
You can make as many comments as you like, but only one per day will be counted towards the 10 needed to make the PicEgg grow.
Come back another day and post another comment and that will be counted until we get 10, at which time, the PicEgg will magically transform into the next stage.
My comments do not count towards the total needed to make it evolve.

There are approximately 6 stages, so come back to see them all! Each stage takes 10 posts in order to go onto the next stage. At the end, I will show all the stages including the final one. Hope everyone enjoys seeing the different stages!

Any questions? Ask in a comment and I'll get back to you asap! =)

Mondo Zoo

2/23/2016

0 Comments

Of all the games I've played on the Internet, the only two that I have stuck with (or perhaps they have stuck with me?) are 1) Mondo Zoo and 2) Flowergame.

I will on occasion visit My MiniCity and Creature Breeder, but I play Mondo Zoo every day and Flowergame just about as much.

Fish Live was very entertaining for a while, but if a game takes up too much of my time, I just have to give it up. And Fish Live was doing that. Too much clicking. I can't take that.

But with the two games I've stuck with, neither takes a lot of time - just 10 minutes a day, if you want. Or, you could take more time with them - and that's the beauty of it! You can have a decent Zoo or Garden with just 10 minutes a day (each) or you can get really involved and take up a lot more time, it's up to you.

On Trying to Obtain a Visa...

2/9/2016

Well, you would not believe the day I've had!

My sister said she would go to Washington, DC, with me (I didn't want to walk around DC by myself - plus I also didn't want to drive to the Metro.) So, when she got here, we stopped by the bank to get the money to buy the Money Order from the United States Post Office (USPO). That is what the Brazilian Consulate required.

While at the PO I also got a big over-night envelope and a form to go with it. I left before filling out the form - forgot about it, I was in a rush (bad!!!) When I got to the car (my sister was driving), I filled out the Money Order and then got out the form to fill it out when I realized that the PO personal had to fill out part of it, so I had left without giving it to them! =(

We then found a PO near the Metro, but the line was so long I didn't think we would be able to make it down to the Brazilian Consulate in time, so we stopped by Krispy Kreme Doughnut Shoppe and sat down and ate a doughnut! =D And then drove back home, where I went back to the same PO, where they then told me the sending PO would be the ones to fill out the form, so I could have gone on down to the Consulate anyway! =S I just wished she had made that clear to me in the beginning!

Oh well, we are planning on going back on Wednesday, provided the roads are alright (It's supposed to snow tonight and pretty much all day tomorrow! Eek!)

So, after we got back and my sister headed home, I decided I needed to accomplish something that day, so I got my hair cut. It turned out to be one of the absolutely best hair cuts I've ever gotten! =D

How was everyone else's day? =D

TV Shows I Watch

1/21/2016

I actually watch a LOT of TV. I went for years without watching one single show and then I got Netflix and BOOM! It's been TV galore since then! Wow, has it ever! Some of my favorites TV shows are:

The Walking Dead
Criminal Minds
The Following
Lost
Continuum
The 100
4400
Psych
White Collar
Lie to Me
Sherlock
Burn Notice
Breakout Kings
Heroes
Terra Nova
Pretty Little Liars
Once Upon a Time
Ascension
Dexter
Revenge
24
Touch
Prison Break
Friday Night Lights
Army Wives
One Tree Hill
Survivors
Switched at Birth
Dollhouse
Person of Interest
Desperate Housewives

(These are not in any order.)

And, just today I started watching Zoo, which I have to say, looks to be very good!

What I also find interesting is seeing an actor from one TV show having a part on another. I just love that! One of the first shows I watched was Lost because so many people were talking about it. I absolutely hated Ben on the show. Years later I started watching Person of Interest and I didn't even realize the same actor who was playing Finch had played Ben - and I absolutely LOVED Finch! So, I guess I'm saying Michael Emerson is a really good actor!

Something else I've noticed - practically every time an actor from one show is on another they are a different character. But I then saw Robert Knepper who played T-bag in Prison Break, also appeared in Breakout Kings as the same character! I don't think I've ever seen that done before! If you have, please tell me about it and which shows they were on and the character, OK?

So, if you have a show you think I might enjoy, please post it below - thanks!

Just a person interested in playing games. Usually slower type, non-violent games. I like collectable games. Even thought of making a game myself, but I wouldn't know how to code it. So, I play other people's games and enjoy them. This site shows you most of the games I play - there have been a lot more in the past, but these are the ones I am still playing, with the exception of Creature Breeder, which I visit once in a blue moon, and UniCreatures, which has changed so very much. I'm not sure I want to start it all over again. And then there's My Mini City. I miss it very much, and visit once in a while, but time - time is always a factor. It's always against me.
