Things are starting to kick up faster than expected. So here is part 2 of my Summer Time Activity Project.

So last month on my previous thread, I asked the community for the plans they had this summer, inside and outside the community wise.
Little did you all know that you would actually be expected to follow through with these plans you make every summer, but actually do nothing about.

So here you will put your plans into action!

So here's what you do, re state one of your vows for this summer.
And then after that you basically keep track of them here until you finish.

"But what if I don't finish like I most likely would without this thread?"
Well then you will be shamed by all ;)

So just make it look something liek this:

I wanna finish a my RHG #3
Ill post 2 screenies here a week to show progression.

If I don't finish, I will wear a "I love CaM" Sig and Avi for a month, plus be shamed by all.
I will try to finish around July.


Yeah something like that.

So if you're planning to finish an anim this summer.
Make a game
Go to the beach
Get a girlfriend

Or anything, vow it here.
Or be shamed by all ;)
_________________________________

Ill begin

I want to make and finish my RHG #2 against EZ
It will be at least 3 minutes long
And it will be finished and include fighting

I want to finish sometime in July or so.
And I will post a screenie every other week to show progression.
AND IF I DON'T FINISH
....Then I shald wear an "I love CaM" sig and an "I love Xero" avi for a month.
Plus be shamed by all.

When I said I'll be spending a lot of my time working, I now have two jobs. My free time I'll mostly just be spending with friends, and maybe animate something when I get free time, which will likely be spent on my RHG with Mercury, which had been held off awhile.
And my punishment? Idk, you can think of it, I'm no good with that sort of thing.

I will finish my wRHG fight with KKA this month.

If I failed to finish it this month, I'll (gulp) kill my rare Golden Wyvern on my eggs list.

I've got an internship at a church to fufill for 6 weeks. It's pretty much a summer job, to be honest, although a church isn't the preferred place I want to be every weekday from 9 to 5. The pay is 7.25 an hour, which is pretty sufficient considering my age.

If I fail pertaining to my duties over at the church, my punishment is already set for me, lol. I'll just lose my job and sulk around miserably at home.

Other than that, I'll probably just spend a ton of time doing stuff on this forum as usual. That, or gaming with my friends.

Sorry for the outrageous bump, but I am a man of my word.
I shall keep these dreadfully stylish avi and sig on for a month or more if I don't feel like taking it off.

And be shammed by all.

I legit just sat around doing nothing all Summer.
Let the shame commence.

Stop it.

Fer god's sake, Mike. Get up and stop grovelling. First off nobody cares. Secondly, people are motivated by different things. And suffice to say, "boldly proclaiming a promise under fear of shaming" does NOT work for you since, quite frankly, you seem to wallow in your failure alot. Pessimism becomes you. However noble your intentions are, it's almost as if you set this entire thing up subconsciously, only to fail and become the self-prophesizing faggot that you are.

Are you telling me that you literally made this thread with ZERO progress, when we could literally see you on the IRC every damn day for 4 months only to reveal that you had nothing? Technically, you didn't really DO anything as it started with 0% and ended with 0%. So no harm no foul. No need to act pretentious and summon a hatestorm on something so unnecessary. I wanted to read a book yesterday but I didn't. Dang, guess I get to go in the Hall of Shame too. No. That's bullshit.

Stop focusing on the consequences of your inactions and do something about it. For one, stop proclaiming projects and just do it and forget deadlines and promises. They don't work for you and you make yourself out to be more idiotic than you already are.

Some key final advice for you there, as I bin this thread since it has basically done what it was meant to do.
