With the Notebook arriving at Cheddahz' in a few days, I figure it's time to do my post commenting on things from the book and such. I didn't read through the thread or look at scans beforehand so it would all be new to me, so apologies if something I say was already mentioned.
Ohh, nice pics.
This is exciting! It'll be a while before I get the book, but I think I have an idea of what I want to do.
I don't remember making this post back in March 2014 or what it was I wanted to do, but here we are! My life has changed dramatically since that post (for the better).
Vipershark is the one who sent the book to me. Their design they put on the box came out well and stayed intact. I reused the box when I sent it to Cheddahz. I like the fake name they used and the "Vroom" at the end of my name!
My girlfriend and I went through the Notebook together. There wasn't a CD in what I think was
besada's envelope, but the QR code that
HUELEN10 added worked. Thankfully,
Vipershark included a copy of it on the USB drive so we didn't have to download it. We were able to listen to some of it while we went through the book together. We didn't get to hear much of it before I had to make the drive back home, but we liked what we heard! Now that I am back home I need to give it a full listen since I copy and pasted it onto my hard drive.
There were no bookmarks and the Tinyurl didn't work on
Sub-Zero at a Starbucks' page, but I like the drawings.
I didn't find the 10th NeoGAF term in the crossword that
HUELEN10 made, and there was nothing on the website that the QR code took me to.
PrimaNocta, I choose #4
^ I hope I did that right! I like all the stickers. Thanks for doing this!
Nice drawings,
LuffyZoro! I still need to play Mario Kart 8 sometime.
Not sure who did the awesome fox drawing, but it's great!
Chezzymann's city looks like a nice place to live. A bridge in the shape of a GameCube controller would be fun to go on.
Vanillalite, I choose Batman!
Pinko Marx, one of your badges fell out when we opened the book, but my girlfriend fixed it!
I think we're gonna need more years!
Soka, how did the publication go? Super cool entry, by the way. My girlfriend is a biologist and we liked the description of your work and the graph.
No luck on solving
BM's codes.
Nice Ben Stiller,
BlueSteel! My girlfriend and I had a hard time getting the Bandcamp URL right, until I realized it is probably a name, in which I got it right afterward. We liked your music. It was a relaxing backdrop as we went through the rest of the book.
The USB drive that
xkramz included is still intact. I added a video of ten people trying virtual reality for the first time and some pictures from my time working as a background actor on various films and TV shows. I also included captures of the pictures I put into the book, just in case! Oh, and pictures of my cat, White Fluffy Kitty!
Always enjoy seeing
WhereAreMahDragonz' username because I read it as if Emilia Clarke is saying it. Hope everything is going well! My girlfriend told me that her uncle was also an aircraft mechanic for the Air Force when we read your entry. I like the cactus and tumbleweed.
BriareosGAF has one of my favorite entries. A history of working on some cool games, some nice drawings from his daughters, and half a copy of a Call of Duty: World at War release candidate disc (though that gave
Ourobolus some trouble on the next page!). Great stuff. I put a copy of the podcast on my PC and look forward to listening to it on my next drive. And no worries about it being distributed!
Glad the book is still going strong,
Ourobolus. I'll buy the drawing for no more than $300,000, though. I hope everything is going well at Microsoft.
Vipershark, thanks for sending the book! I want to see a picture of that ring when you get it.
A lot of great drawings and stuff in there. If I didn't comment on something, it may have been because I couldn't read the username or because I didn't want to necessarily bring up something if plans and such didn't go as intended. A lot of the entries are over two years old, after all.
I couldn't do proper scans, but I took pictures of mine and Vipershark's entries, just in case! I'll add a link to this post at a later time.
