One Hour One Life Forums

I couldn't justify murder with 1/8,000,000,000 % responsibility, for global warming.
But I would frown, as we all died, for another of Jason's sick lessons.

Also, I'd get physically ill, as people tried to justify 'a little more temp, for a little more oil' as we lurched over the big hill, at the start of the roller coaster.

It's already hard enough to watch moms making engines, ignoring their starving children, and find the nerve to argue with them.

Probably just find my way away from everything, and share my deep thoughts with wild rabbits.
They always welcome strangers like me to, unseen, new lands.

Now I imagine them popping out of their holes, and their fur, bursting into flames.
Running, from grassland to grassland, through seas of fire, and waves, of flaming rabbits.

I should be asleep. These thoughts are too much like dreams, or refreshingly disturbing nightmares, to waste, between any foci punching keys.

This reply is not really relevant to the discussion of recipes, do you even play OHOL anymore?

Also...chimichangas. I don't even know, what a chimichanga is, but, I think we need a chimichanga recipe, because, I want to hear WBSteve's voice overs, saying chimichanga, in his videos. XD

People who don't play the game are banned from chatting in the forum from now on.

Oh, and how about Surgeon Simulator?
How many people have enjoyed that one?
And how many have complained about the controls??
Yeah.

We are in such a weird place, with this game.
One the one hand, we have Newcomen Engines and Canada geese, but, who is Newcomen? And what, is Canada, to us?
We have, essentially, Africans, but no Africa.
We have gingers, but no Scotland. Forgive me, but, that's the only place I know on Earth where people with Ginger genes come from, genetically.
Like, 90% of the population on Earth, might fall somewhere in the brown skin category, yet they are associated with the jungle??
And blacks; the desert, which, is kind of a stretch, given the darkest skinned people on Earth are found in the SUB-Saharan part of Africa, nearer the Congo.

I mean, we've had this discussion 100 times in the last 2 years, and each time I come closer and closer to just treating this like chess or pac-man, and less and less like any kind of reality humanity has, or will, ever encounter. Then people argue it's art and any point just gets thrown out the fucking window and run over by a garbage truck. So it's art, okay, it's Jason's art, okay. So, we have to art Jason... into arting the game, into something we can make sense of? But not just any kind of art, because, people have made "actual" art of the springs and rivers and lakes, so not graphics, not that kind of art.

What then? poetry? Do we have to sing songs about lakes and rivers? I mean, here in Michigan we all know the story of the Edmund Fitzgerald, or at least, those of us who care about the livelihoods of our towns on the Great Lakes. We know the values of the waterways, when it comes to shipping, fishing and recreation, but not just that, these waters were used by people to keep themselves clean, and the creation myths of people, not just here around the great lakes, but all over the world, have water, as the key set, in their stories.

Then there is just the plain truth of biology, and the history of life on this planet, and the role that water has played in the distribution of material throughout our cells. But, that's a longer timeline and a smaller, and larger, scale, than this game takes place in.

So how are we to get Jason to understand, and incorporate, the beauty, the allure; the mystery, of the key aspects of the hydrologic cycle, into the game?

We have wells. We have wells and we have ponds. We put water into bowls buckets pouches, and now, even tanks. We, are responsible for it's motion, at all times.
There is no flow, in this game. The refilling of shallow and deep wells, and ponds. That flow used to be something a little more obvious. I mean, you could have imagined, that when the pond level rose, that rains had fallen. But not now. Nope. Not now. You are unlikely to see a water level be restored by the appearance of anything resembling a flow, in your whole life, in, any of your lives. Ever.
Swamps, will never be, unswamped, now matter how many times you run an engine on a well nearby them. But that's not terrible, a lot of times the reason they are swamps is because rain water is essentially collecting in, what is, practically, a giant bowl of clay. But they don't last. Water always finds a way to flow, and to level. Aquifers all over the Earth, are connected. If not through the vein-like cracks in the rocks, than through absorption, gravity, evaporation and condensation.

I hate doing this for things.
This is why I don't sit here in the forum, like half of you, and suggest Jason't make changes.
What a waste. What a waste of time and good ideas. No wonder most of you hate each other here on the forum.
You are so unsatisfied, investing your minds here...

He can't do everything even one of you wants, unless you want nothing, but what you get.
Quit fighting for his attention like children, he has those already.

But Jason, if you are reading this, do take MY ideas seriously.
I want to tell my friends "You see that? I asked for that." and then they'll go, "Wtf is that game? I don't even get why someone would want to play that." then we'll drink more beer and listen to Black Sabbath and they'll pass out at the bar and I'll come home and make more dumb forum posts.
And forever be unsatisfied, with the state of things.

Nope. Just, keep the servers goin. I'll make roads till I die, a hundred thousands times.
Whether or not, I have, to route them around, or over, any, bodies of water.

I've always wanted water to play more of a part in the landscape.
I know people have made rivers on modded servers, or at least, have put forward the ideas in the past, and shown how they'd work, and I really wish Jason would see the importance of water, for more than just watering crops, or for even fishing ice holes or making rust, but I don't know if he has spent enough time next to a large body of water, to understand the reality of it. Let alone, it's value to life on this planet.

But he always has a lot on his plate.

Keep this pot boiling and the lid rumbling, and sooner or later, he'll get to it.

Then pein can assume all credit for this idea. >_<

or pretend it was never a good one. ;-)

If only it did speak for itself?
It does.

It does.

Turns out that building was the GM Renaissance Center, not the Chrysler building, that one is in New York.

And there are a lot of other ways to get down to the river, without jumping the fence, but, I was on foot, and those paths were far. It was just easier for me to jump the fence, from where I approached the river, to take in the view, of Canada, just on the other side.

That's about the spot where I jumped it, I just wanted to get to the water's edge, and I was tired of walking, around, obstacles.

"What do we do?"
"We run now."

Have you seen this movie? A.I.?
This is what I was looking for when I searched for "Any Old Iron" and found, and listened to, those other songs.
I don't think I've ever heard those songs before, but they were worth listening to, today, and in their day.

Do I complain?
Do I offend?
If I am offended, by this change, should I take it out on those responsible?

Will, will we never find the balance?
I will admit, I was happy, when you were all the ones complaining, about the change, you, were responsible for.
I must responsible, for, at least part of this.

Do I accept my responsibility? Then what?
Ignore, the loss, of this scarcity? And what, go back to making a road, raising a family, watching, the show unfold?
I don't know if this is good, or bad.
Suppose it's either. It's what we make of it, right?

If I want you to be unhappy, so that I can make you happy, does Jason, also, want, to make us, unhappy?

Sometimes it's fun, playing your games.
You make things boring for us, we, then, what, entertain you?

This is why honesty is important.
This is why clarity, is important.
And it's why art, is dumb.

This is why people set a value and stick to it, in the vast majority of other video games. They do what they can to maintain that balance, they don't flick at it like a fly in the window. They don't treat, their values, like cats, treat nearly dead mice.

Suppose it's time for me to take a break. I want to, I don't want to. I want to type more, I don't want to waste your time... whatever. I will do what I feel is right, but I must ask this, Jason, please, make a real world. A consistent one. Where the values, stick. I want that. Some people want that. Others are happy, with your art.

Don't do what I say.
Be happy, Jason.
I love you,
brother.
