Brings new meaning to taking one for the team *shudder* Well I appreciate you all having more class than InStaaled; and I also appreciate that my momma told me to buy condoms. And InStaaled you will find I'm tru to my promises so you've incurred a "Don't Confuse Reality with A Game" and freak everyone out timeout. I've warned you twice about using MY name instead of my characters name which is just creepy as all hell. Maybet his is the only way you'll figure that out, I said I was banning you next time you did it so.... see you Sunday!

So please remember that the syntax is "Yeah my character and April got it on" and we can keep everyone from loosing their lunch reading the boards. If anyone wants to 'snuggle' with April fine, but don't be a looser and do the quickie thing though that's just tasteless, not to mention doing BOTH which is just the sleaziest thing known to man. I didn't set her to 'Promiscuous' for that very reason but it seems it doesn't matter as in the game it doesn't actually take two to tango. Now, I'm going to go pour bleach on my brain and scrub by eyes with a steel brush, take a hot shower and hope this conversation never comes up again. *shudder*

It seems that you get about 35% from a jam session so the fewer songs you choose the more you progress. I set one of our covers to practice to see if maybe since the song is popular we'd learn it faster but it progressed at the same speed as songs we've written ourselves. Anyhow we got 5% done on 7 songs this time and previously focusing on only four songs we got I think 8 or 9% done.

Oh hells yeah!!!! My lockign myself in my appartment appears to have paid off!!
I finished my song You Gut Me. It turned out pleasant.

The melody is sweet and the lyrics are decent.
I've kept up our daily jam schedule and tommorow I've set us to only practice our three new songs :thup:

I've set myself to learn punk rock from Palmer so anyone who doesn't have punk rock as a skill should do the same as he can teach multiple people at a time! Once we learn that I'll teach Basic Schowmanship to anyone who needs it. You should set your Professional setting to 'Learn from Master' and set yourself to 'Follow' (you can do this from a player's profile page)

I've now got 2 stars on "punk rock" and I'm set to teach apprentices. I've also put a few points into intelligence to hopefully help the learning process. Guys, get your friendships up with me so you can be my apprentice. I'll even turn a blind eye to interactions that boost the "love" meter. Just please avoid kissing me or anything like that. Hugs, Drinks, and Compliments are okay.

Just read the skills section again about Apprenticizin and it says you get a bonus to the speed of teaching/learning if you hang out at a school. So we should all meet up at New York University. :thup: Apprentices should use the 'follow' option to make sure that you and the Master are always int he same place since you need to be in the same location at the update to get your learn on.

Jebby seems constantly depressed, so I'm trying to build relationships with everyone. Trying to hug and compliment everyone in sight. Try not to take it so personally. I have no clue how to cheer him up any other way. :dunno:

You have to keep speaking to the same person more than once. Each day new functions come up that you can do.

Yeah, you started off on the wrong foot for the first several days or so. You had your personality set to agressive or something like that. You weren't friendly or flirty. It made most people's interactions with you negative. I kept trying to build up a friendship with you but right now my "mood" towards you is in the red. Try interacting more now that you're set "flirty" and hopefully it will turn around.

I don't know if following April is going to do you any good right now. April is set to learn "punk" from Palmer and she's following him. She's not set to "teach", so I don't think it will help you. Build up your friendship with Palmer so you can learn with April. Then once people are set there, we'll learn showmanship from April.
