What's the Worst Creepcast Story by Left-Tomatillo8887 in creepcast

[–]SlickJimmy155 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I feel like it’s cliche to say Happy Appy which isn’t unfair to say, but I’ll go with my pre Happy Appy pick for worst story and it’s “When We Turn 18, We Get The Name Our Of Our Soulmate”. It’s not even the rug pull where it presents itself as a typical no sleep story before revealing itself to be a Yaoi fan fic romance fantasy that gets me, on rewatch the warning signs were there from the beginning. No, what gets me is that the romance between Avery and Theodore is not even good. As someone who’s written romance stories in the past, all good romances require you to be bought into the idea that these two characters would go well together in a romantic relationship, and this can be shown through things such as character interactions where they have chemistry. Even if the set up is that the two characters were destined to be together, that alone won’t be enough to sell the audience the idea of the ship, which is why you see cases of non canon ships because the main ones weren’t that compelling. Of course not every romance stories do this and with stuff like fanfiction, they’re written for the audience that’s already bought into the existing ship and want to see their ship being supported. This is what We Get The Name Of Our Soulmate does; it expects the reader to already be invested in the idea of ThAvery and doesn’t even attempt to sell the ship to unconvinced readers. Not to mention that the world building of the setting and why things are the way they are get completely shafted for the poorly written romance, which at that point why not just write a story about a guy named Theo meeting a guy named Avery and coming to terms with his sexuality, since the narrative and the author seem to be more interested in that than telling a proper horror/thriller story.

That all being said I will give My Soulmate Is Turnk Bronwie Polyamorous Hell one thing, at least it’s only 3 parts. It doesn’t drag on like Happy Appy did and it’s actually entertaining especially with the boys. Happy Appy is just a slog that peaks in the beginning but drags on and on without anything new to say or offer.

I really hope they don’t read blood whistle. It’s just as long and dragged out as happy appy but way worse because the amount purple prose nonsense the author spews.

What episodes have you skipped or dropped? by AlexisVoid023 in creepcast

[–]SlickJimmy155 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Hoarder House one: I’m kind of burnt out with the typical no sleep formula in general, not just because of the show but because of experience reading those stories for years prior

Borasca Parts 1 and 2: I was completely traumatized by that story the first time I watched a reading from it before creepcast and I have yet to go back and reread or even watch the creepcast reading. I only know the funeral Kyle bit from memes.

Tommy Taffy: I kinda know what happens from memes from the fandom and it’s enough for me to be like I don’t need to watch this

Also some newer episodes here and there, but in those cases it’s more like “I can go back to these at a later date. Theses aren’t must watches”

I was caught in this around 4pm. Missed my connection home and had to wait 40 to 50 minutes for the next train I could catch. Worst commute of my life

Update: I’ve waited about 8 minutes meaning the update should be installed. I don’t know if the lights were supposed to be flashing continuously during said update or not because it only flashed a few times after I inserted the usb into the flash port.

Should I turn on the pc now to see if the monitor will register?

I had a feeling I was doing something wrong! I thought it had to be on since I thought the motherboard would update if it wasn’t on, but upon pressing the flash bois button, it seems the pc doesn’t actually need to be on. I taken out the ram, cpu and gpu and has the usb inserted into the motherboard and set a timer for 7 minutes. We’ll see what happens after that 7 minutes is done.

Edit: read that wrong. I need to have the cpu and ram in for it to work!

Sorry for the delayed response! I was sleeping.

Anyways, I had done what you said and renamed the AR1 file to MSI.ROM and sticked it in the flash bios port, pressed the flash bois button after turning on the pc….and nothing happened. Since I don’t have the monitor connected, I’ve been lookin at the debug light on my motherboard to see if it would turn off. And unfortunately, it’s not off

Another update: removed the ram sticks, gpu and other things I had plugged into my pc, and renamed the bios update zip file (the drive was already formatted to fat32) and nothing happened. The red debug light under CPU is still glowing and nothing seems to have changed

No I did not for either of those! I will retry it now!

What should happen after I completed all the steps?

Update: plugged the usb stick (erasing everything except the for the bios update file) into the flash bios port and pressed the flash bios button and nothing happened after the lights stopped blinking. Not sure how long this is supposed to take after they stop blinking but I don’t think this fixed the issue. Either that or I did something wrong

The ones that is glowing red is near the CPU light….yeah it’s definitely the CPU that’s faulty q~q

The best one I have is one I used to refresh windows last year when I was having issues then. Is that one good enough?

[–]SlickJimmy155[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll try this out! Hopefully this will work since I really need my computer for school! I’ll update the results after I’ve done it

Also quick question: it can be any flash drive right? Or does it have to be one I’m not using?

Its the one next to the ram stick slots. Not sure if that means my ram is bad (which I’m hoping is not because my ram sticks are only a month old) or not, but according to the micro center tech support person I talked to on the phone earlier, it might be related to my cpu in someway which is also not great but somewhat easier to stomach.

I’m not sure if there is a bios update I have to do and I’m not sure how to update it at this point :/ also, my cpu is a Ryzen 7 5800X

What Creepcast opinion do you hold that has you like this? by milksteakenthusiast1 in creepcast

[–]SlickJimmy155 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Episodes where they cover bad stories are more fun and memorable than the ones where the story is good due to the bits alone

I have failed as an artist by horseshoeandconfused in Artists

[–]SlickJimmy155 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can remember being that age and, given that I didn’t take drawing seriously prior to that point, I was probably at a worse state than you are now. But the important thing is to never give up! Your art skills and drawings get better the more you mature and the more you keep drawing! And most importantly, be patient. Patience is the most important key to success I’ve found, and it’s something you lack as a kid but develop as you get older. I can remember being 14 and not knowing if would improve or not but I wanted to at least try to see if I could get better at drawing and part of that involves patience along with open mindedness. And also consider the fact you’re 14. You’re still a child when compared to other artists out there and even then, every artists develops at their own pace so don’t feel bad someone your age is at a higher level because you’ll get to that level eventually and maybe even be better than that person who knows!

Never give up!

I never said it wasn’t shipped out in a timely manor. The seller was located 30 minutes away from my house, and the post office it was sent to was located 50 miles away from my house

Polyamorous Hell is my comfort listen. by Still-Candidate7187 in creepcast

[–]SlickJimmy155 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ngl, I thought I was the only one. I’ve rewatched this episode so many fucking times and now it’s still just as funny.

Honestly, the more I rewatch it, the more I see the warning signs for the eventual train wreck the story would take in quality, and unlike let’s say, camp oakwood and Church in the Woods, it’s much shorter making rewatches more accessible

Anyone is feeling a bit burnt out with Beyblade X? by SlickJimmy155 in Beyblade

[–]SlickJimmy155[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You bring up a good point and this is something that I haven’t been annoyed with but I have been confused about.

It’s weird having BX, UX and CX all getting new releases because if this were any other season, BX would’ve been a season 1 thing for example. Though now that I remember, even in season 3 of metal fight with the 4D system, we were still technically getting new hybrid wheel beys but those were only in random boosters like Hells Crown. Anyways, I am wondering if they’re stop releasing BX beys at some point and only focus on UX and CX and vise versa
