12880 now! :D

[Ariella]

Winterbells score: 363,886,990.

.......8D

[Thuriel]

Excellent. :D You realize you must recant all exclamations of surprise and/or awe regarding my previous scores? ^^

[Ariella]

Consider them unsaid!

(It would've been even higher but my toast was burning :/)

[Shona]

HOTSHITHOLYFUCKHIJADEPUTA!

O_O

*is dead*

[Thuriel]

Okay.

4,875,212,426.

I am officially going to stop playing Winterbells. I think by this point I've proven that I basically beat the game; I could get higher and higher scores each day if I had the patience. But I don't, nor do I have the time, so if Ariella (or anyone else! ^^) wants to try to beat my score, go ahead, but don't expect to goad me into playing again or anything. I'm retiring. ^^

[Shona]

Jesus holy fuck.

And to think I was happy because I just hit 430,580...


ETA: 574,000

[Thuriel]

Be happy! :D That was a lot for me, once, too!

[Shona]

Next to you, I am nothing. @_@ :P

[Thuriel]

But (if you keep at it) you'll just go higher and higher, and if you don't decide to stop by then, eventually you'll beat me. ^^ The game's really very simple. It even stops getting gradually harder after a certain point, so it's all about endurance. And concentration. Playing while distracted is not a viable strategy. :)

[Shona]

Yeah no kidding. *eyeballs book* I think I finally figured that out.

That and hit all the birds. :D They make life easier.

[Thuriel]

Yep, the birds are your friends. ^^

[Shona]

Whenever I have free time I'll work on going up another 100,000. :P Maybe I'll even hit 1 million.

Doubtful but that's all right. I'm more of a Soul Caliber death-to-the-opposing-player-by-swords-and-awesome-combos anyway. XDDD

[Thuriel]

Okay, um. I'm actually a little embarrased by this.

I was looking at my high score, and I thought, "How odd... it doesn't end in a zero. I thought it had to, seeing as the bells are all worth multiples of 10..." and I tried one last time, to see where the score could possibly verge out of multiples of ten. I didn't get very high when playing while watching my score go up (only about 100K), but when I landed, I saw that my "previous high score" disagreed with what my "new high score" had been telling me.

My "previous high score":

48,752,124,260.

I'm sorry. (It fixes the problem, though...) *shifty eyes*

[Shona]

...

I order you to pick up all the pieces of my asploded brain and pay for my hospital stay.

>_<


ETA: OMGOMGOMGOMGOMGOMG! 1,859,930!!!! :D:D:D

[Thuriel]

Whee! See, you've already beaten my first two high scores. :D

[Shona]

^_^ I think I'm getting better at this.

[Thuriel]

Those high numbers don't look so amazing anymore, do they? ^^

[Shona]

o_O The ones higher than 2 million do.

Of course, I'm going to use this to kill time when I should be writing NaNo...

Tundra: That has made my day an estimated seventeen percent more awesome. Thank you.

[Aquamonet]

They are so pretty. I think this (http://puimun.deviantart.com/art/Nine-of-Swords-71782066) is my favourite.

[Shona]

I can't pick! I admire you for picking. >_>

[Aquamonet]

That was my favourite at that moment but each time I look at a different one I think that's the best.

[Shona]

>> That is exactly my problem. >>

I'm buying those tarot cards when they come out, btw. :P

I'm impressed too! ... Draidal? *cackles madly*

Woah.

That's really creepy.

Music Catch (http://music.catch.fizzlebot.com/) - Catch the floating shapes before the music ends. Bright yellow shapes multiply your score, red ones reset your multiplier.

[Thuriel]

^ score on first try: 488,356. I'm pretty curious about how that compares...

[Hippie]

First try: 1,354,447

How that compares: It doesn't. ;)

*dances* This will not turn out like that Winterbells game. *giggles*

ALSO: The music is REALLY pretty!

[Aquamonet]

...it doesn't seem to work for me...

The game starts up and then it just freezes. May be it just doesn't like firefox :S

[Hippie]

I'm in Firefox... that's weird. :?

[Aquamonet]

I just tried it on IE and it didn't work either. *cries*

Isn't flash cause I play flash games all the time.

Second try: 719,964

Okay, so it won't be another Winterbells. But do I have to remind you of my Winterbells score? Do I? *menacing look* ^^

[Hippie]

Not even a week ago was I showing my friend the Orisinal site... and had to tell her about the Winterbells score. She tried it once and then just sorta quit. >_>

[TwistedFirestarter]

Psst, what was your winterbells score?

[Thuriel]

Aha! I have been asked!

48,752,124,260.

Try to beat it! :D

[TwistedFirestarter]

*laughs* Oh, I fail at winterbells.

My friend Alexei, however:

He wasted 80 minutes of his life on this.

[Hippie]

...

:shock:

I think he beats you, Thuriel...

[Thuriel]

*whistles*

...Wait, I can't whistle. But you get the idea.

Even so, I got to the point where I knew I could just keep getting higher and higher scores if I had the patience, and I stopped myself before I got too obsessed with it, so it's more of a "wow, very impressive" not-whistle than a "omgz how did he do that!?" not-whistle. ^^ I am content with my 48 billion, and I have no intention of trying to go any higher.

So pass along congratulations or something to him from me, but it's respect, not awe. :)

[Hippie]

HOLD ON A TICK!

That score has to be fake.

53,412,974,081,669,743

???

Doesn't it have to end with a 0?

>_> Unless it's missing a digit on the end. In which case it's 534,129,740,816,697,430.

HOWEVER... it looks fake. I don't know why, it just does.

[Thuriel]

Oh, I just figured it was missing a digit. Remember when I first got my 48 billion, but I thought it was just 4.8 billion because it gave me my score without the 0 at the end? And I went again and it was fixed? That, plus I figure the score box only has room for so many digits.

Also, accusations of "Fake!" run rampant on the internet and I didn't feel like adding to them. ^^

[Hippie]

"I'm not a witch I'm not a witch!"
"But you are dressed as one."
"*They* dressed me up like this!"
"We didn't! We didn't..."
"And this isn't my nose. It's a false one."
"Well?"
"Well, we did do the nose."
"..."
"And the hat, but she is a witch!"
"Yeah! Burn her! Burn her!"

When you get to a really insane high score, it switches to to scientific notation. The score is actually 5.3 *10^43.

And it's not fake because I think there were witness (not for the entire way, of course, but to see the end screen.)

And yea, I'm not sure if this is to be "awe." This friend is kinda...quirky. He was bored one day in AP World History, so he started playing Tetris on paper. Yea, I don't know either.

Crazy russians.

EDIT: And yay, Monty python! :D

EDIT2: Here's a video about the scientific notation (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PVHblfKfhg).

Monty Python references FOR THE WIN! Doubly funny because she did turn out to be an actual witch. :D

[KeinesV]

Encylopedia Dramatica (http://www.encyclopediadramatica.com/Main_Page). Not for the faint of heart. A bit of porn works it's way around, and then there are some truly horrifying images like the goatse man and tub girl on the entry for "offensive". The humor is also about as stupid and politically incorrect as you can get.

[Ariella]

I was rewatching A Gentlemen's Duel like, two weeks ago, and it occurred to me I should link it here. I never got around to it so it's a good thing you did, Orion! Isn't it awesome? (Oh man, imagine, Edwardian steampunk England WITH GIANT ROBOTS. Rusty clanky copper ones! Smooth enameled clinky ones! All sorts of robots in the early twentieth century!)


And Konrakku(!!!!), ED can be oddly fun. It's where I get a goodly amount of my knowledge of memes! Sometimes I want to punch it in its face for treating some issues so lightly, and I steadfastly ignore several pages a little too pg-13 for my tastes, but it can be entertaining.

[KeinesV]

Hah. ED is awesome. It never ceases to both teach me something and make me laugh. Gotta be democratic though. (And JewTube is REAL (www.jewtube.com), now!).

[Ariella]

Yep; there's also a Christian version somewhere, I forget its name. The local newspaper had an article on it a while back I think.


. . . o-oh my heavens I've heard of this song (http://www.jewtube.com/view_video.php?viewkey=77621450aa84fee5656d) before. It's so baaaaad ohmygod XD (check one-two ve'nahafoch hu? seriously?)

[KeinesV]

Wow, what the hell was that?

[Ariella]

A rap song explaining the holiday of Purim (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purim)! The fellow who wrote it, Matt Bar, has a whole Bible Rap project. The songs are catchy but completely ridiculous.

edit the YouTube version (http://youtube.com/watch?v=-vTLxpz9HKs) has lyrics! They might make the song a little more sensical.

Truly the end times are upon us, for among the things that are extreme that didn't necessarily need to be so there is now extreme wearing of pants (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pShf2VuAu_Q).
