I said I’d add a game key to one of the following chapters but I have yet to pick a game.
Hmmm, I’ll schedule a few more to keep myself in the zone then work out what to pick.
I’ll probably just go for one of my favourites and top picks.
Maybe from the Christmas sale suggestion list I put in a previous ramble.
Tears of Avia would work well.
I’ve decided that I am going to add a game code into a chapter at some point. Not sure what game yet.
Or which chapter.
But let’s consider it a game yeah?
It has come to my attention that somebody has been rescheduling my half hour chapters to ten minute chapters.
Which throws a massive wrench in my current plan for scheduling.
But I’m going to pretend I never noticed and continue with my current scheme.
If this chapter releases like ten hours after the rest the reason is because I scheduled this after someone changed my posts schedules.
I think I am going to take a proper break for my sanity after this one, then maybe do another little batch before I sleep.
Given how this is so far into Christmas I think I can get the remaining chapters scheduled in my free time before Christmas.
Even accounting for the timezone variable.
I really can’t believe I forgot that this website is half a day ahead of me, and that four days actually only means three and a half.
I really messed up my scheduling.
I think there’s only like 10 chapters left to schedule though so it’ll be fine.
I mean seriously guys you got 30 chapters of this novel!
And I had to schedule several more for the other novels too!
I was so busy working on these chapters that I missed an artist opening up commission slots.
That was frustrating to say the least, but oh well.
I guess I can just be thankful I saved money at Christmas.
Now to return to doing more editing! Hurray!
Still annoyed I missed that notification though.
Really bad timing.
So has anyone been doing any interesting things with that new chat bot?
So far all I’ve done is ask it random trivia for no real reason.
I did accidentally get into a strange rabbit hole where I learned that it does not understand certain things at all.
Like it thinks the name Hyperion was used for every Star Trek ship.
And that Blue Archive is part of the Fate/Grand Order franchise (with a weirdly specific synopsis which I cannot work out where it pulled it from).
I wonder if I could find a practical use for it though.
I had intended to buy a 2023 calendar this month but it completely slipped my mind.
Not really sure what I will do about it now, well I mean it’s not the end of the world if it’s a little late.
But I mean more about if I still want one ore not.
I actually have two from a long time back on my wall still. One is because I like the art of that page.
The other is still up because it was handmade by a friend of mine.
I set myself a schedule for getting these individual chapters done in crunch time but I am really struggling to stick with it.
Well part of the reason is because I am really running out of things to put in these rambles.
What idiot decided they all had to be unique?
Oh.. right… me.
Like right now I have a video about a cruise ship on.
I don’t even know why!
Why am I so easily distracted?!
It seems twitter has added tweet analytics in a more directly accessible and viewable place.
I’m not sure why.
I’m fairly certain this was already a feature all they did is move the button to an obvious place.
Maybe they want to create that social media addiction to spreading tweets in order to drive engagement up now the site is burning in a dumpster fire?
No matter the reason I couldn’t care less.
This chapter is scheduled to go up at midday on website time!
That means there’s been 12 hours of non-stop Christmas cheer so far!
How are you enjoying the mass release?
And I’m only half way done!
Well, slightly over half way, but it sounds better that way.
Oh right, I don’t think I ever said at any point.
But I think Silva uploaded the mascot characters for the site.
They should be around somewhere on the site.
Go and take a look.
Honestly the lore for my one was made up in a few minutes and I did zero editing passes so uh, it’s more like a notes version of the concept when I was brainstorming.
Probably quite cringe.
I assure you the OCs I put a lot of effort into are far more detailed and less cliche.
Also none of those are self inserts.
Alright so originally I was taking my time with the scheduling but it is now the final day I have available so speeeeed is of the essence.
So expect my rambles to become even more incoherent than they already were.
If that makes any sense to you.
Anyway basically I only have a few hours until I sleep and then a few more hours after I wake up until guests arrive.
Which means a tiny window for finishing this off.
As if having to post 30 chapters at once wasn’t pain enough we had a Volume transition in the middle of it!
Do you know how tedious the process is to add a new volume to the page and make sure links work?!
Luckily I caught this before I tried to schedule multiple chapters of this volume because that would require resetting all the work because the dropdown menu would be out of date and need to refresh for the seventh to show up.
Anyway rant of annoyance aside, hurray we have reached Volume 7! This volume is called uh…..
Mount Ooe.
So this chapter is actually the final chapter of Volume 6 – Izumo.
Which means we will be starting a new volume.
I hadn’t actually planned ahead for this so now I have to do a scramble.
I’ll probably complain about it next chapter.
Anyway, for now, enjoy the final chapter of this volume!
But remember the Christmas releases continue!
For some reason while I was editing this a part of the Cross Ange soundtrack started playing.
I honestly have no idea why, or why I was able to recognise it.
I haven’t watched Cross Ange for years, and that anime was average.
I barely remember the plot of it except the whole magic discrimination aspect and interdimensional war thing.
And no, I’m not going to rewatch it.
