Simple question: Yes or no?

I've got a few new watchers lately and I feel I should explain a certain thing again so no one would be confused.
Lately I've been submitting art that dates back to 2007 or later. I have a lot of pictures I would like to add into my gallery but a certain guideline I set for myself conflicted with my real intentions. After joining dA I decided I would submit one picture in a month but later I noticed this is a bad way of doing things. I'd love to have my gallery upto date with all my points of intrest of moment, or "phases", since at the moment my gallery is heavily retrospective and doesn't reflect my current intrests. Thus I am trying to get all the stuff I have lying on my hard drive out of the way quickly.

On the other side of things, I've had my thoughts revolve around commissions. I have no idea if I should open a shop for commissions because I don't know how people would respond. How about it, peeps? Would anyone be interested in commissioning me?



Oh look at that, tomorrow will be my 3th anniversary at dA. Dear god.


EDIT: Hay it's me editing this journal. I am most honored by the activity of all my watchers, and would like to address you with my humblest of thank-yous: would anyone actually please bother to answer my question described above?! This is important to know. At the top of that, why are you even watching me if you're not interested in what I do? Opinions! You have the freedom of speech!

Another year, another Septim... I wonder who made up time and why. Still, nine is my favorite number.
My 19th birthday was 13.9.2009, nine days ago. Lucky me.

Originally I intented to write this journal on 19th but I was too busy roleplaying a zombie publicly. Ever heard of Zombie Walk? Well now that I have your attention... [link] (And Ben, if you spot me, don't tell it here)

Actually I do have a reason to write. A while ago I got an urge to map how big portion of my life I've spent playing this and that video game. However, it's impossible to get even close to the real amount of hours played due to three reasons; 1. I don't always save after playing (especially true with Shadow of the Colossus), 2. Many of my saves have been lost over the years (especially true with Oblivion) and 3. not all games have a playtime counter. But those that have one, I've mapped and made a list. Also I don't have means to check my Gameboy Color games' playtimes now... I emphasize that this list only directional, some of the times are only estimates, some are accurate, some are in a standstill and some are still counting, but here it is:

The Elderscrolls IV: Oblivion: 521 hours
Fable: The Lost Chapters: 61 hours (bear in mind how short this game is)
Two Worlds: 31 hours
Golden Sun: 64 hours
Golden Sun: The Lost Age: 87 hours
Pokemon Sapphire, 1st cartridge: 332 hours
Pokemon Sapphire, 2nd cartridge: I always use this spare cartridge to start a new game. I've started a new game 3-4 times and each playthrough takes 30-50 hours
Pokemon Ruby: 89 hours
Pokemon FireRed: 95 hours
Pokemon Emerald: 195 hours
Pokemon Diamond: 323 hours
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon 2: Explorers of Time: 96 hours
.hack//G.U. game trilogy: 254 hours (130 hours on Vol.3 alone)
Ratchet&Clank I: 5th gameRound, each round takes 30-60 hours to complete.
Ratchet&Clank II: 5th Round, -"-
Ratchet&Clank III: 3rd Round, -"-
Shadow of the Colossus: 39 hours
Ico: 6 hours

Also there are a few games that don't have a counter but which I've played a lot, and I am pretty sure my estimates are not far from the marker:

Spore: over 150 hours
The Elderscrolls III: Morrowind: over 200 hours
Assassin's Creed: over 70 hours
Klonoa: Door to Phantomile: over a ridiculous amount of hours

Those hours from the games with the counter summarized together make over 2700 hours alone, which is over 4 full months. But as I've said, I am missing a lot of data so we're nowhere near the truth.

After all that I want to tell you one of my favorite video game quotes. I am bad at spotting and remembering great quotes but this is one I like:
"Welcome to paradise. There's no cake or tea to greet you with, but there's plenty of light.
Yes, light. Light all over you. This bastard is always bringing me ghosts behind my back. You know this too right? The black, mute, and sticky bastard.
Yes, the bastard's name is Pa-- no, I can't say his name because I fear him too much. Hey. Can you get rid of this black thing for me? I think I would be able to run around for water if you can do that for me.
Hey, how about it. Get rid of this "past" for me. No! I said his name! I'm doomed, it's the end! No! Don't! Don't come near me! Get away! Aaaaaaaargh!!!!!!"
^{~JIN, Tartarga, .hack//G.U.}


On the top of the other things, I submitted an unnecessarily huge amount of useless scribbles into my scraps. Might just be wasting everyone's time...

thank you.

you know who you are.



All went ok, apart from these four "crisises"
1) I was still in Finland's airport when I super-sealed my own suitcase because I failed to remember the combination lock code thing. Dudes at the airport helped me to open it.
2) I bought an expencive 2-way ticket when I needed only a single ticket. I sold the other ticket to a random woman dirty cheap. Damn those machines for being so hard to understand.
3) My wallet was lost and then found.
4) I had to leave. I have never before experienced such deep sorrow.
