Well, it wouldn't be the first taboo Mr Scuffles has crossed.
Thank you for sharing your tale with us.
Man, that woman/dice motif is all kinds of awesome.
"so what are you talking about young man?"
Ridiculous.
I'm quite honoured, and am glad people seem to be enjoying it.
I had jam that was frozen back there as well, but it wasn't cryogenically frozen. It was just regular frozen, apparently.
Actually, he helped work on a praxis I have half-done, but for this journey, since it involved walking, he stayed at home and watched Mad Men on my computer. He does need to get involved more, though.
I printed the map out and coloured it in, taking note of the street names I was going down as I walked it.
Yeah, the PDF kind of does that... I think I can take that out...
I do understand, and even when submitting this particular praxis, I felt it wouldn't garner much in terms of votes once I put it together and was sort of underwhelmed with the results.
"Oh.... hmm."
So the question that will surely be asked is: well, if you knew that, then why did you submit it?
Well, I guess this is the best I can do at the moment, but if I have a plan for something better than this submission for this particular praxis, then I will unsubmit this one (Oooh, UNDO AGAIN!!) and submit something better.
Having said that, there are other tasks I've been working on that will likely have a bit more aplomb and punch. It's not my goal to be a mediocre tasker, but then again, I won't claim to do amazing things with every task I do, especially since I've only just started playing this month, and haven't yet hit my stride yet in setting up expectations for myself and doing things that other people may want to be interested in. Some of the more fun tasks I've done have been met with tepid response, whereas one of the easier tasks I've done that I personally feel could have been done better has been getting a fair amount of votes, which is a bit of a surprise to me.
It's a learning process in not only learning one's style and what one can do, especially as a solo tasker, but also knowing what the audience/fellow taskers are looking for and expecting out of a praxis. I don't mean to sound like I'm whining, because that's not what I'm trying to do or how I'm trying to come across. Comments like yours as well as votes (and the absence of) help people new to SF0 like myself learn what to do and what not to do, as well as what one can do in order to push the limits of a praxis. I've read the task, and it covers some of the things I've already been noticing from my own blundering, as well as some other helpful information that is quite nice as well. Thank you for sharing it, and do know I am inspired to make my next task something more fun that this particular one.
Not for votes, but just for the sheer joy of fun itself.
I worked in a bookshop as well. That man sounded like a nutter who was more interested in getting a pathetic bit of attention more than an SF0 member.
