    Okay; I'll come back to you guys once I feel like I need AI testing. For the meantime, drafting should be good enough Smile

    I think the easiest to program would probably be unity. I know Dave Sirlin's Yomi runs in browser off of Unity with a simple interface. Determining how the AI acts would probably be pretty tricky if you're not experienced with it so good luck with that endeavor. XD


    Thanks for that; I'll need it Grin

    I'm thinking I should just download MSE and draft with myself. Trouble is I don't want to make Magic... there's other plugins, right?

    You can play two people and switch between the two if that's what you mean.


    I guess... you'll have to tutor me a bit on this. Basically I want to make my own game and play against a AI.

    I also have no idea how to do this. Stupid

    Lackey ccg is hard to use but very effective. I've been able to make custom card games with it before, but it took a bit of practice.


    I've got the time to learn it, but it does seem difficult and the interface is a bit complicated.
    Is there an option to play against yourself? Not Solitaire mode Rolleyes

    I like headley's idea. I've used MSE before (still do), but I'm not sure if there's any good programs for playing against yourself. I've looked through but the best I could find was LackeyCCG, and I'm unsure how it works. I wouldn't want to print out cards.

    Thanks guys and please help me out Smile

    I've always wanted to make some kind of card game, and play it off against myself. Thing is, I'm not good with programs, and apart from Set Editor to make (non-Magic) cards, I'm not sure how to put out the rest.

    It drags me down because I've always wanted to do this, but don't have the knowledge/tools to do it. Frown

    Any ideas guys?

    Quote from IcedNeonFlames
    Lessons can help because they can help you in your technique. If you started off with bad technique at first, it can take years to learn it the proper way (stuff like holding the pick, positioning your wrists, etc).

    For learning scales and stuff: Do you want to grow as a musician, or just play chords forever?


    Yeah, maybe, but only if they were jazz/classical guitar lessons (not a whole lot from where I am)

    Of course I want to grow as a musician; and I do know some scales, and how to pull off random licks. But I'm not the type of person who likes showing off when playing, y'know what I mean? Most people don't seem to like the guitar players I like.

    Also, I really, really want some effects pedals, preferably a delay to start off with. Any advice?

    Quote from Eberbacher
    And depending on how one starts could also lead to years of relearning the stuff,

    friend started the wrong way (how to hold the hands and to do the cords)
    It worked for some years when he did slow stuff and accoustics,
    but once he changed to faster stuff and metal he hit a barrier because his wrong style didn´t allow him to do that,

    he had to relearn a lot,

    Traing is nothing stupid, just because there are some guys out there, who, by luck or talent, where able to do it without it.


    So basically you're saying I need lessons, right? I'm getting confused

    Either way, it wouldn't help; I started off wrong, and it took me a while at the start to get barre chords right, but I haven't heard a guitar player in my area sound like me so that's good enough Smile

    Oh yeah, thanks for the tips on scales and stuff, but would a rhythm player need that type of knowledge?

    Thanks ::cool2:

    Thanks guys Smile

    Will any cheap metronome, as long as it keeps in time, do the job? At the moment all I have is computer metronomes Slant

    Thanks again Grin

    Hi Smile

    I've joined a band recently, doing rhythm guitar and vocals. I'm fine with singing and playing, but I think my guitar finnese is lacking.

    I've never taken lessons, apart from the occasional online lesson. I've only been playing for 1 and a half years now, but it's good enough to be in a band.

    Anybody have any advice on sharpening up? So far, I know most chords (open, power and barre), arpeggios, modes and some scales.

    Thanks Smile

    Summer Stun

    Sun is out today
    People have gone
    But I'm stuck inside

    Sanity's hanging by a thread
    Made of water but thicker than steel
    That's how I feel

    Lounging out in the scene
    Flicking through a magazine
    The pages all tell really beautiful lies

    I'm sick of this town
    I'm sick of this house
    I'm sick.

    New Day

    The dawn of a new day
    Fills me with hope
    The dawn of a new day
    Fills me with glee
    A new day, new life.

    Watch as the sun peaks
    Above the mossy hill
    It's radiant arms
    Touch your skin.

    I am your sun
    You are my earth.

    Holly

    I once knew a guy who knew a girl
    And boy was she lightning fast
    She had boys lining up just to see her face
    As she moved from the first to the last
    Now, I ain't gonna tell you this girl's name
    Cause then you might just be fooled
    Trust me, you don't want to end up doing what I did
    I'd be far too cruel

    Now I know I probably never went too far
    But I swear, it's not just me
    She had every single boy in town
    As far as the eye could see
    You know she's the type of girl every guy's lookin' for,
    Cause when you see her pretty pretty face, man, you just can't ignore

    I didn't go and end up a lovefool
    But a good friend of mine, he did
    Now he's ruined, tattered and torn
    His heart's been ripped to bits
    She's moved on to another guy
    She'll probably leave in a week
    But hey, all I can say
    I'm lucky that guy ain't me.

    Rainclouds

    The last thing I would want
    On a day like this
    Is a raincloud
    Coming between us.

    Don't let the wind
    Blow us apart,
    Weather the storm
    That's in your heart.

    Let the sun
    Mask away the rain
    Let the bird's songs
    Mask away the pain

    The children playing
    Eases my ears
    Makes me forget
    About all of my fears.

    Share this day with me
    Because a day like this
    Shouldn't be spent alone
    But how I wish.

    Strange Languages

    Isn't it funny?

    Isn't it funny?
    How people talk so loud,
    But say nothing at all?

    Isn't it funny,
    How people treat devices more highly,
    Than they treat people?

    Isn't it funny,
    How someone could ignore the person next to them,
    And talk to another miles away who could care less about them?

    Isn't it funny,
    How everybody seems to be your friend,
    But you always feel alone?

    Isn't it funny,
    How we can control the moon and the tides,
    But we can't control the stock market?

    Isn't it funny,
    How we can ignore everything,
    Yet pay attention to something,
    That doesn't really exist?

    Isn't it funny?

    And isn't it sad?

    This story should be part of Louis CK's "white people problems" sketch.


    Well that made me crack up Grin

    Before I posted this, I really should've said:

    - I have ADHD, diagnosed with it since I was a kid

    - I'm not exactly straight, but I can't say for sure, my parents are very very right wing type people so naturally they don't like that

    - I'm very antisocial; I have very few/pretty much no friends, many reasons why

    - Everytime I tend to make friends, things go well until I stuff up (I ALWAYS stuff up), usually this relates to situations involving women

    - I'm always depressed, nobody takes it seriously

    - I get angry at everything, especially when it comes to music, genre arguments etc.

    - I've never really had a proper relationship with a girl before; we always end up fighting

    On the other hand; none of these problems are really too big, and I was in a bad mood when I was typing. Thanks guys!

    BTW I'm not "trolling"

    Last few days, I haven't been feeling all too well for some reason, and I don't mean in the physical, sickness type of way.

    Relationship problems:

    Last friday, I went to a friend's party. I met a girl there, and we really liked eachother, I guess we were falling in love. She didn't have a mobile number, so she told me just to add her on Facebook. Next two days, I asked her for her home number, then she told me it was "private". She's been ignoring me ever since, and keeps saying she's busy. She's not.

    To make matters worse, her best friend, who I've known for longer than her, seems to be hitting on me or something.

    Life problems:

    Parents, family are all sick. Everyone is but me. It's spring down here, so I'm guessing everyone has hayfever or something. The difference is, having Indonesian parents exaggerates everything, making every day seem like a concentration camp

    Outside of all this, my music. Namely, I've been waiting half a year for my band to start up, and even though I'm good friends with all of them they're not serious at all. Should I go on Youtube or something?

    TL;DR: Nobody cares who I am or what I do
