Zircon Firefly is the name of the new server Zaecus and I are playing on with Allaryin. It is heavily modded, and the purpose of playing is kind of an experiment. We have tech mods and magic mods, and it is forbidden to cross the streams. That would be bad…dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria. So we play. I am having a blast, but am completely out of my depth trying to figure out these mods. Luckily, Zaecus has played with lots of them before. He is handling all the tech, and several of the magic mods. I have one task, to learn and utilize the Witchery Mod. We will see how that goes.
We started just before Christmas, but as you can tell I haven’t been updating here for awhile, so I am posting the current Zircon Firefly Playlist to get you caught up. Have fun.
So I am a very bad blogger. Zaecus has put out multiple videos, and I have not reposted them here yet. So you are about to get say three or four videos at once. I just have one thing to say . . . “TIME MANAGEMENT” . . . I needs it.
Here is the playlist for our first four episodes including our little pilot. Best to get them all out of the way at once. Quick, like ripping off a bandage. I promise we will get better, technically and such, but our enjoyment in this little adventure is infectious. I promise not to infect anyone with my mystery plague though.
My blog here is getting a little of a slow start. We aren’t going to blame it on my procrastination or my poor time management. No, no, no, no, no, no. Instead we will blame it on my mystery fever. I had two weeks of fever, nausea, exhaustion and four days of a non-itchy rash on my face, neck and arms. That’s it. No other symptoms. Blood results come back next week, and they will most likely show nothing if my past medical history holds true.
Funny thing is, this illness is actually the cause of my first real pause from playing Minecraft, since I started this spring. Zaecus started playing around Christmas, and in just a few months, he had gotten me completely and hopelessly hooked on this game. We’ve been having so much fun, that our next logical step was to make complete fools of ourselves and share our obsession with the Internet.
My friends at work have heard me go on and on about the game. When I am asked how I am doing, I typically respond, “I’d rather be playing Minecraft.” The catch phrase has kind of stuck, so it seemed as good as any a title for my blog.
So now I have shared, blogged, and posted all of our current videos, and I have everything up to date.
It’s 2 am and I should be asleep, but I would rather be playing Minecraft.
