Azrael's Log


Guest Azrael Strife

Recommended Posts

Ok, I'll do my best to keep a log of what's going on here, mostly in the CTD (since I've got no idea of what's happening in the other departments ^_^ ).

-A few days (one or two, I think), Alex the Greater was banned from our forums, as a consequence from negativism, lack of will to work appropiately, and most important, pissing off the admins. With Alex, it makes two the poor unfortunate souls that were kicked out of our forums.

-RustedSoul has attempted to reunite the X-Net Proofreading Taskforce, sadly, three of the members have not reported in. MagicAndy, Awof and Blehm have not responded, the taskforce will have to go on without them (actually, Blehm is absent due to some parents-issue, we'll most likely to have him back soon :) )
For now, dipstick, RustedSoul and I will have to work on our own while the whole thing is addressed and the taskforce reassembled.

-Qonfused's CT, Artopod Autopsy is wrapping up nicely and should be completed soon. Same for Hailfire22's Cloak Concept, nearing completion.

-I've made some minor modifications to my Artopod Concept, assistance was provided by Qonfused in light of his nearly-completed Autopsy (other people have helped as well, of course :rolleyes: ).

-The polls have been opened again!, voting for Abductor, Terror Ship, Battleship and Supply Ship has commenced. Polls regarding other Alien craft have been moved to the Top Floor where they shall be closed and the names picked by RustedSoul. Xenocide's name for Cydonia is open to suggestions in the Workshops, come and share your ideas!

-The CTD Asset List has been slightly modified to improve efficiency by RustedSoul. It has been changed to show which CTs have been proofread in addition to completed.

-The Master Maniac has gone AWOL, as he failed to mail me a CT which he was writing <_< , let's hope our retrieval squads will find him and have him back soon.

-Some recruits have started a topic regarding Pardus, an online strategy game, a very deep and cool-looking one, which sadly I don't have the time to play :crying: , they are trying to make an Alliance within the game, for which they need 500000 credits, they are all working on it, join them in the Patio and check the game!

That's all folks, join us next time for more news! :happybanana: Edited by Azrael

- Work is progressing slowly at the Proofreading Taskforce, perhaps due to the fact that the number of active members is 2, but is progressing nonetheless.

- I've started working on the Viper and Morlock CT to make them fit standard format and to check for incoherences in order to deal with [Aliens] once and for all :devillaugh:, Grey Ct is next on my list.

- I've seen The Master Maniac at Pardus... looks like the game's luring more and more members into it.

- I've been proofreading Artopod Autopsy, Cloak and Spawn CTs, they may still need a tweak or two.

-Qonfused has started "Plasma Rifle Clip" in the Active Creative Text.

- The Xenocide Alliance at Pardus is getting its a$$ kicked by a pirate named Hemlock :P, it'll be interesting to see how their plans to catch him turn out :)

edit, for clarification, they are not getting their a$$ kicked... but the thing is that the pirate does as he pleases and they can't stop it for the moment, as I said, this will be interesting to see unfold... Edited by Azrael

- Our current military rank and rank pips are going to be replaced by department icons and special titles, for instance, where my rank was now reads "XNET proof taskforce". In the Lounge, Stewart has opened a topic for submitting icon and title suggestions.

- Stewart, in a display of power abuse, has tampered with my sig, this shameless act shall not go unpunished! :plasma:

- Hailfire22 has played his first online game of Warhammer 40k, sadly, he has lost.

- Tomorrow is the deadline on release, unfortunately, it seems that we will be unable to reach it.

- Atomosz is the newest recruit for the Sound Department.

- Military ranks and pips have been left for non-xenocide board members, thus, NKF is the new Commander, congratulations NKF! :D

- The Xenocide Alliance is looking for a forum of their own, since anyone can google them right into their *secret* base right here in our forums and see their private discussions and plans, it seems like SupSuper's got the solution :)

- More on the Xenocide Alliance, now they have the astonishing number of four topics of their own.

- Hobbes has posted a new map for UFO2000, a farm

- Stewart has begun replacing our pips and titles with some [b]lame[/b] icons, he claims that for incentivating the submission of better ones, someone from the AWD should help us out of this :P

- ATeX has posted the Xenocide Main Theme V0.1

- He haven't been able to reach the release deadline.

- RustedSoul has been playing with my signature banner, apparently due to heavy drinking :), in an abuse of his senior powers, the problem has been solved and the offense has been responded to :LOL:

- Tomorrow is Red Knight's day, an exclusive on him tomorrow....

- Also, tomorrow is my Mathematics C final exam, wish me luck!

- Kander has posted a link in Active: Creative Text that leads to his web-based X-Net, it is under construction still, but looks definitely great, good job Kander!, unfortunately the site is not suited for Internet Explorers :boohoo:

- Stewart has requested assistance for sorting the Inactive members, if you remember where they used to work, help Stew in the Lounge.

- Our department icons have been changed again, there are some pretty good suggestions by RustedSoul and SupSuper... sorry J'Ordos, never liked the Ordos insignias, I'm an Atreides man myself! :P

- Well, the Pardus threads (all four of them) have gone missing, Micah is working on it, unless this is a very clever plan to deceit the treacherous enemies of the Xenocide Alliance who attempt to seek information in our forums! :sly:

- Raven Squad has posted Ambient Noises in Active: Sound, haven't tested them, but I'm sure they are very good!

- Plasma Rifle Clip has been completed by Qonfused and RustedSoul has laid it in the XNPRTF's table.

- The forums are most likely going to be moved on Thursday morning, 0500 GMT. It is anticipated that they will be down for no more than an hour, but they will be shut off during that time. This message you all get, but for recording it anyway.

- No more name submissions for Cydonia, now it's time to discard a few and make the choice.

- My apologies to RS for the misunderstandings I caused :spank: .

- The Signature Wars are over... for now :P (looks at RS' current signature banner) Edited by Azrael

- NKF has applied for Xenocide membership, thus, he is no longer the Commander, the new commander is... Gangsta!

- I've started proofreading the Viper CT, but I think part of it should be in the autopsy, that's to be seen with RS.

- Today's Extralucas' birthday! :happybday:

- I've managed to lay my hands on some of RK's big day!, I'll post a couple of them soon (will have to make them a little smaller so that Micah doesn't kill me :P)

- The Xenocide name for Elerium is open to suggestions, it is still strange as to why after using Xenium for so much time, we are going to change it. A question pops into my mind when I think about this... WTF??

Historian has came back as well, one of us :)

- Tsereve has started CTD-Alien Surgery

- kafros has started CTD-Alien Reproduction

- Qonfused has started CTD-Heavy Plasma Rifle Clip

- With those three CTs, we are only two CTs away from the total we need for V1, most of them still need revision and proofreading, but don't worry, we're working on it :D, the remaining CTs are Raptor Autopsy and Silabrate Autopsy.

- Hobbes has posted a new map for X-Com: UFO defense using XCOMUtil, Native.

- guyver6 has requested the AWD to make a skybox, as what he currently have is a plain stars background which, in his opinion, needs replacement badly.

- I've posted 100ish things Tommy can't do in X-Corps, basically an organised version of 100 things Skippy can't do in X-Com, but updated with Xenocide names, post more if you like :) [url="http://www.xcomufo.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=6326"]http://www.xcomufo.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=6326[/url]

- Qonfused and blehm have applied to join the Proofreading Taskforce.

- The Taskforce has been transformed from a covert organisation (a la X-Com) to a public dependency (mmm, like the actual proofreading taskforce). Everyone can view the works there, but can't post there :NyaNyaNya:

- In 7 hours I have my last exam, physics, wish me luck. Thankfully, I'll have some time then to check the on-going CTD works and proofreading to do, all I have to catch up with.

- I passed my exam! :party:

- Proofreading of posted texts will end tomorrow, next texts for proofreading will be those needed for Alpha6, according to the list Vaaish provided me with.

- I'll try to revise the Neudar CTs, though I don't think Tzuchan has left any loose ends, but will try to help him anyway :)

- I'll also try to complete Grey and Artopod, so they can be proofread in the taskforce forum, but I think they don't need much work.

- I've been organising the Active: Creative Text forum a little bit, changing thread names to those of Xenocide V1, so they can be found easier, like changing UFO POWERSOURCE to XENIUM REACTOR.

- That reminds me, polls will have to be resumed eventually, I've PMed the provisory leader about it, Cydonia has to go first (showdown!, yaaay!)

- Tzuchan has completed his Anti-grav Powersuit text!

- blehm and Qonfused have joined the Proofreading Taskforce.

- Half Life 2 joins Deus Ex 2 in the list of games that have dissappointed me the most :( , great graphics, but still...

- Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!!! :) Edited by Azrael

I don't have much time to continue making entries daily now :(, I'll do what I can, but I'm mostly focusing on the work that's to be done in the workshops and the proofreading Taskforce.

- Tzuchan has made a backstory for Xenocide, almost too poetical for my taste, too many dreams...

- I've been making things in Active: Creative Text more tidy, now all X-net entries should read "X-Net Entry", and names have been editted into the Xenocide names, now things should be easier to look for. Maybe I'll deal with Completed later... Edited by Azrael

- XC-33, Barracks, Laboratory, T-Shirt Armor and Artopod Autopsy have been finished, grey and Artopod are still in Active, not for long though I expect.

- I've opened up more assignments for the Proofreading Taskforce.

- It seems Mikker's laser pistol model is having difficulties in being exported to Ogre.

This is dipstick reporting.

Currently Azrael is MIA. We do not know his precise location, but I thought I would post here on his behalf, as we know we have several people that would suffer withdrawal symptoms. :D

Basically, there are several, polls still open, and I will be conducting a grass-roots review of everything in order to update the CTD Asset List. From there, we will be completing the proof reading (and yes, I know we have all heard that before! :P) and moving on to translation. One step at a time....

dipsticj signing off. We will now return you to your regular news broadcast (when he returns.....)

Guest Azrael
- I am tanned, burned my shoulders, and pretty sick of the heat, it's just too much!, anyway, I'll return on tuesday, and I have a few plans when I do :naughty:
First of all I'll continue the development of the Phase 3 of proofreading, which will be very *very* important, and will probably involve dipstick and me.
I'll also take a look at all that's being done in the Workshops, as I have missed quite a bit, specially in the CTD, and if dipstick requires so, I'll update the Asset List.
And finally, if RK needs me to, I'll upload the proofread files to the Issue Tracker for Alpha 6.

So much to do these days.....

- I've created an html version of the tech tree, the first draft was plagued with mistakes and was hard to read, I've remade it and now it has hyperlinks all over, fixed many things and added research topics that were missing, which btw I've noticed that there are some topics that might have been left out of the asset list, I'll talk to RS and dipstick about it. What a chance to practice my html code skills :P

- I've updated the asset list yesterday.

- I've finished the other polls and started four more: Alien surgery, alien examination room, alien entertainment and alien reproduction.

- I've posted a thread for suggestions for: New Fighter Craft, New Fighter/transport, The Ultimate Craft, Alien Origins and Cydonia or Bust.
Did I include The Martian Solution.....? Yes, I did :)

- Proofreading has been slowed down, dunno why, everybody is kinda busy lately, don't matter, Phase 1 is coming to the end. I am still working on Phase 2 and 3, which might involve, as I said, dipstick, me, and maybe RustedSoul if he has the time :)

More incoming!

- I've updated the Asset List *again* to add three more research topics: Alien Base, Alien Terror and Alien Harvest, they are new and haven't even been started, any volunteers? :Deal:

- I'm happy about how the new html Tech Tree looks now, I'm almost sure that it is non conflicting this time :D
