Second game of 40k!
Here is our latest video. We recorded another game of 40k. We belive we ave masterd the rules of 40k better. We still do make some mistakes but its a large improvement from our last game. The larger table also made this game go much better. Watch and see us still scrub it up but slightly less than our last game! Our armies have not progressed in painting at all either, as both of us are slow painters. The second video and army list are coming tomorrow!
Tour of the Warhammer Zone
I decided to give you a short tour of the area I live in and play warhammer in. Its fairly unexciting but its a video!
There it is in all its glory.

New videos? Hell yes!
Well if anyone has noticed (Or if anyone cares) we have not posted a new video on quite a while. This is for a number of reasons. Both me and LJ work full time, and since we work at the same place they seems to like to give us different days off. Also LJ seems to be too lazy to edit the new video we made of our second Warhammer 40K battle. Damn you LJ!!!!
Anyways, I have decided to post some video's of me playing old school NES games. I got Fraps and am going to get a Microphone that works with Fraps (Apparently USB microphones don't).
If anyone has seen Cloud8745's video's of Youtube, that is the style that I am going to go with. I know it is not the most original thing to do, but meh, it works.
So I have a few games that I am going to play through. Also remember that they are not walkthroughs, you could use them for that but this will probably be my first time playing most of these games. So it's just going to be playing them and most likely swearing in frustration a bit.
The list so far is:
Thrilla Safari
Monster Party
Aliens 3 (lol)
Duck Tales
Ghost's and Goblins
Little Nemo: The Dream Master
River City Ransom
Contra
I am going to add more to the list in the future, but I think for now this is good enough for me. If I dedicate alot of time to this I'm sure I could possible get through some of these games in one day, but I work and have to do other stuff and whatnot.
I would also like to add that I am going to use save states. Nothing is more frustrating then getting halfway through a game and running out of lives. So I am going to save state at the beginning of every level.
If anyone has any suggestions on what NES, or possible any other system (Excluding 3D games because they are hard to find online) I should play, let me know by either posting a comment here or contacting me on Youtube (My account is CarlEldar)

P.S. In addition to these new video's I'm going to be posting I might post some video's on my half-ass beatboxing skills, tactics for my Warhammer Fantasy and 40K army's and other random stuff. So keep watching!

Spider Riders
A Kroxigor of mine
Saurus Warriors
My only painted Stormtrooper
And thats all the half decent pictures i have. More should be coming soon. Also Waffles

Random Evangelion quotes!
For some reason I found the urge to search up my usual Username for everything on the internet, till LJ/I came up with CarlEldar.
So I proceeded to search up "DemonHost" I found a bunch of half written blogs and stuff that I have posted in my youth. Lots of the sites were filled with a variety of quotes from Neon Genesis Evangelion, that was the first anime I watched (Not including Dragonball Z :P) I still rate it as the best anime I have watched up too date. Even though I have watch quite a few with LJ since then, I still like Evangelion the best.
(My old signature on forms xD)
Anyways, I thought I would say one of the quotes that sums up how much of a mind fuck the series can be at times. This is taken from one of the last episodes, I don't think it contains any spoilers, mostly because it is so hard to understand!
"Mountains. Heavy are the mountains but that changes with the passage of time. Sky. Blue sky. What your eyes can't see. What your eyes can see. The sun. One, only one. Water. It is agreeable. Commander Ikari. Flowers. So many the same, so many without purpose. Sky. Sky red. Red the color, the color I hate. The liquid flows. It drips, ripples and pours. Blood. Scent of blood of a woman who does not bleed. From the red soil the humans come. The humans made by man and woman. City. A human creation. EVA. A human creation as well. What are humans? Are they creations of God? Humans are that which is created by humans. This is that which is mine. My life. My heart. I'm a vessel for my thoughts. The entry plug. The throne of the soul. Who is this? This is me. Who am I? What am I? What am I? What am I? I am I. This object that is, is myself. That which forms is me. This is the self that can be seen and yet this in not like that which is myself. Strange feeling. My body feels as if it is melting. I can no longer see myself: my form, my shape, it fades from view. Awareness dawns of someone who is not me. Who is here, there, beyond me here? Shinji? This person I know, Major Katsuragi. Dr Akagi. People. My classmates. The pilot of Unit 2. Commander Ikari? Who are you? Who are you? Who are you?"
I believe this to be Shinji Ikari in his own mind, if you watch the whole series this does make some sense, but I need to re-watch it to make sense of it again.
Another good quote from Evangelion is:
"Who am I? What am I?
I am I.
This object that is myself, that which forms what is me. This is the self that can be seen and yet it is not like that which is myself."
This is Shinji again I think, a good example on how much Philosophical questions are raised in the series.
If any of you like anime, you should really give this one a try. A good site with reviews can be found here: http://www.anime-source.com/banzai/modules.php?name=Anime&rop=showcontent&id=91
I might post a review of my own some day, but I'm too lazy now.
So there we go, this is my 12:35AM half-baked post about Evangelion, Woo!
Soon to come: More randomness and Warhammer!

Aviatars!
Since I work a crappy job (Collecting carts at Wal-mart), I like to spice it up.
I wear these everyday along with LJ, we add some style to the capitalist scum that we work for!
Some of you may be asking, why the odd look on my face? Honestly I have no clue. Atleast it looks more interesting then a plain face, or a smile in my opinion. Plus taking a picture of yourself and smiling while showing off Aviatars seems lame to me.
This will give you the idea of the randomness to come in this Blog. A good rule is, if it in not Warhammer related, you can assume it is going to be random stuff like this!

Also, excuse the more-then-normal curly-ness of my hair, I got out of the shower like 20 minuets ago.
