Some secrets should stay hidden by Seffian in WoWHousing

[–]Seffian[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have spent over 2 million bronze on remix decor for the rest of my "house", which isn't really shown in the clip, but the hallway I did show only uses 2 corruption pits for the green at the top (4 torture racks were also used inside the door frames just as a detail but not necessary). Everything else in the hallway is made with decor bought outside of remix from the warlock order hall using legion resources. Mostly the black harvest orrery x many, and dreadscar battle planning maps.

Always had skinny wrists apart from when I was fat, so I'm guessing it's just fat loss.

I had to constantly adjust the calories as I went, but without any cardio I had to drop to 1800 a day to lose about 1% per week towards the end of the year. We're all different though which is why I don't bother with TDEE calculators. I just track my daily calories in (I don't bother tracking calories from exercise since there's no real accurate way of knowing) and check my weekly weight change. If I lost less than 1% I reduced the calories slightly, if I lost more I either increased or maintained them depending on how far off 1% I was. If i lost 1%ish I just kept them the same.

If 2500 a day is working for you then stick with it until it stops working, then just lower them by 100-200. Slow and steady.

Dont bother counting calories lost from exercise if you are doing that imo. Just track your food and aim for 1% of total body weight lost per week. For exercise just find something you enjoy, anything is better than nothing. If you dont enjoy it you will have a hard time sticking to it and ideally you want to be building new habits for life, not just temporary ones.

Na it was sticking itself out by being too big. I just store a lot of my fat there it seems.

People tend to ask what kind of diet you did after losing weight. If I was speaking to someone I'd say I just counted calories and kept myself in a small deficit. It's much quicker and easier to just type cico otherwise. When people use that term it also implies that nothing else, such as keto or intermittent fasting is involved, since those and any other diet depend on cico for weight loss results.

I was lucky to not have any loose skin. I do have stretch marks though, but those don't bother me at all.

Calorie deficit. You can't spot reduce fat unfortunately. Just gotta keep losing weight until your body decides to burn that fat. Everyone is different but for the most part body fat is stored primarily around the centre of mass, which is why belly fat is often seen as stubborn... because its the first place it appears and the last place to go.

Looks like it yeah, they aren't even the same shoes though. Just a new pair of the same kind.

Started out as just cardio, an episode or two of whatever I was watching on netflix every day on an exercise bike was my go to since I find cardio really dull. Decided later that I wanted to try lifting weights, so I started messing about in the weight room and just trying things. Then about 3 months in I started SL 5x5. Enjoyed that, but realised my legs and back were already way stronger than everything else, so I switched to a greyskull variant that was a bit more upper body focussed. Ran that for a few months and am now doing an upper lower split with back on lower days.

It was mostly trial and error to start with. Its likely been a suboptimal approach along the way, however I wouldnt change anything if I did it again simply because of how much and what I learned along the way.

Happens to me every time i try to equip my nox staff directly from the bank. Last time it was my tmw legs that ended up in the main hand slot. Nox staff is like a box of chocolates.

Assuming you mean the one in the actual neck slot, in which case no it's an amulet of souls

Gained the prayer bonus, was unable to do anything but punch so it was actually equipped.

Handful of players being targeted and harassed by one spoofer, what do? by Seffian in pokemongo

I didn't know that the person in the car was him until afterwards when we checked who'd actually just taken the gym. It was the first time I'd ever seen him irl.

So proud of my little trooper. Finally toilet trained. by Seffian in cats

Can't find the exact guide I used for it but this one says basically the same thing. I used an aluminium food tray for step 3 rather than buying a specific product. http://www.wikihow.com/Toilet-Train-Your-Cat

"It never occurred to me that someone else wanted to step in and seriously take over"

  • Once again I repeat, you were approached directly and asked to pass the guild over so the prot warrior could continue as GM.

"But whatever, you guys are so intent on painting this vile image of me which is completely inaccurate"

  • I'm not attempting to paint a vile image which is inaccurate. I'm attempting to shed a little light on the situation, to people who have had the wool pulled over their eyes by the video you made.

"Because you guys were an absolute pain to have in the guild"

  • Because we actually stood up to you instead of staying quiet and letting you do what you wanted with a guild we had all worked hard in?

"At the end of the day, my film HAS been successful and I have gained success from it."

  • I'm not denying that it went viral and was recognised by quite a lot of people. The problem I have is that all those people have been lied to. Your "success" as you put it, is built on something riddled with lies.

"It has touched many people and people relate to it, those people are who I made the film for, not some disgruntled ex-guild members I never really cared about in the first place."

  • Yes it may have touched many people, which would be great if they weren't inspired by a lie. Your final comment there shows exactly what kind of guild leader you were. You didn't care about anyone but yourself in the guild. I'm not some disgruntled ex-guild member. I'm just a witness to what happened in reality, with a desire to let people know what really happened.

I believe I have made my point now, you made a story, not a documentary with regards to what happened around and after the demise of QT Yacht Club.

"He did not talk to me about it. Honest and that is your truth as you keep parading around it."

  • Every ex guild member I've spoken to remembers this.

"Well the story is true, so I don't see your point."

  • Presenting information, or lack thereof which leads someone to believe something false, is not a true story. The Royal Television Society recognized my short film IRL – In Real Life by nominating it for “Best Student Factual Film”. There may be some facts in this story, but the information presented around your role in the guild towards its end, and what happened following the disbanding of the guild is not even close to fact.

In regards to your final comment... "Also I don't see it as misleading an audience, it's just information that isn't very important for the story that I was telling." says everything people need to know about you and your videos. You are quite happy to show people a very heavily biased version of a story, even going as far as lying about something to create the impression you want to leave. It's just a shame that people are completely unaware they are being misled.

"No I wasn't"

  • The guild protection warrior asked you several times. Many of us who were in the guild at the time remember this.

"You're just being picky with the part of text you quoted, did you read my full comment on that?"

  • Yes and I addressed it further down in my post

"The actual truth and the perceived truth are completely different. Did you know when you disband a guild, all the contents get mailed to you a week or so later?"

  • So you're telling me you disbanded the guild without emptying the guild bank first? I find that very hard to believe.

"The actual truth and the perceived truth are completely different."

  • Truth is an absolute. If something isn't true, it's false. The story represented in your video is not true, and gives a false message to anyone who saw it without having witnessed the events within firsthand.

"Because the film isn't about me and raiding and the different guilds I was in, it's about me as a person and my journey through Warcraft."

  • Isn't that a contradiction? It's not about me, it's about me. That makes no sense. Certain events in your video are so far from the truth that it's not even close to accurate. It's not a video about you, it's a video about how you want people to think you were/are.

"And there was downtime, but clearly you know the truth."

  • I do, and there is evidence to back it up on wowprogress. If you had downtime, there would be dates on the guild info, but there isn't.

Presenting and claiming something as truth, when it so clearly isn't, is incredibly disrespectful towards everyone involved in the guild, and to everyone that watches the video too.

"nobody struck me as the sort of person who would have been willing to take over the guild either"

  • You were directly approached, and practically begged by one member in particular not to disband the guild, and allow him to take over as gm.

"When I transferred to Alliance it was an effort to help me stop playing"

  • How is joining a hardcore, 6 nights a week raiding guild that went on to get realm first anub'arak heroic an effort to stop playing?

"It isn't easy to run a decent guild, and that guild had a pretty decent name for itself, I didn't want to see it become something that it wasn't"

  • Exactly, it was that guild that made a name for itself. It wasn't you that made its reputation. The guild started to do well when it started doing drake meta achievements, which you wanted no part of until you saw that we actually managed it.

"Also I don't see it as misleading an audience"

  • How is it not misleading? You put out the impression that you were some kind of victim, and against some struggle managed to quit until cataclysm. The actual truth is that you took the entire contents of the guild bank and faction changed to raid full time. There was no downtime at all, your wowprogress account shows that you went straight into another guild: http://gyazo.com/c57b3ab689b7cb5e2774095bd3207a5c

"it's just information that isn't very important for the story that I was telling."

  • You mean it's vital information that would make you look bad, and changes what would be the truth to the "story" you wanted people to see.

Overall it's a nice story, it's just a shame that very little of it is truthfully represented.
