Title: The Bacchanalia Thread
Post by: Vrosivs Avgvstvs Rakvs on September 27, 2016, 09:39:07 AM

Hello! Welcome to the traditional Roman Bacchanalia, where we honor our benevolent Bacchus, who graces us with song, dance, wine and cheerfulness! If you're feeling down, or ecstatic, or bored, or just want to chat and share some thoughts or music, hop in! If you want to de-stress, sing, chat, ask, tell, whatever, Bacchanalia is the festival for you! :D

Why does no one want to party, haha
Let's kick it up a notch!

As Exilian's resident folk music aficionado (among other things!) I submit the following playlist addition on the theme:

A very refreshing tune, Jubal! :D
But there's no party without the vets, of course :D

Ugh work work work. I always have to work. I wish I could be paid to mod

Post by: Vrosivs Avgvstvs Rakvs on October 09, 2016, 09:27:56 AM
Aye, that would be awesome haha :D
But still, allocating whatever time possible for a couple hobbies is always what I suggest to people. De-stressing is pretty important. Pick up a guitar or a piano, music helps a ton, trust me :D

5:57 a.m. I can`t sleep. Big problem too much (mod) ideas in the head, and work problem also. And I worry about nomads units. About work...
near my city destroyed (heavy equipment) Saka burials. And I have run to instances. Saka in game, saka in real life  :picard_facepalm: . I try to sleep now and for you-  music clips (i love it)! First ENG, second FOLK !


I wish you be in a good mood  (http://s019.radikal.ru/i614/1610/e8/202cab61eff5.gif)!

Hope you get better soon mate, sorry to hear about that. Too bad about the Saka burial sites too, shame some people don't respect history.
In hope of better days to come, here's some good upbeat :)

This thrid lot time emty also!
Ok. I am stressed! Problems with real work now! Few days i will be in excavation of wusun burial (i hate wusun burials). This work without
payment. It is my duty to save the cultural heritage. If you want to then I'll post a photos.
At the heart sucks. Health is not the best. The work is not.
Many people came to forum, but few people do something. I suggest to make RTR pages in social networks FB VK(rus). Can bee news and screenshots.
And now music from my soul:

Hope it goes well xeofox, I'm sorry that wusun burials aren't that fun, especially without pay! Yeah getting RTR out to the Russian community is a good idea. I think reaching out to the Chinese would be fruitful as well.
For me, I'm in the middle of working 12 days in a row. I have 4 more shifts left and then I'm hoping to have a 3 day vacation.

I think it's generally the curse of academics - regardless of the pay we're hooked onto this stuff because we care about it too much and it's too damn interesting.
Title: Re: The Bacchanalia Thread
Post by: Vrosivs Avgvstvs Rakvs on November 01, 2016, 11:16:00 PM
Fingers crossed all goes well, xeofox! Also, I'm interested in some photos definitely :D
And god damn, another RHCP fan, niiiiice, I've been listening to them since I was a kid, one of my favorite bands :D
Title: Re: The Bacchanalia Thread
Post by: Jubal on November 01, 2016, 11:33:01 PM
In my life, meanwhile, I'm about to start being a self-employed social enterprise business. I mean, I have enough to do without this as well, but it turns out I do actually need to make some money now I'm technically out of work or training :P
Title: Re: The Bacchanalia Thread
Post by: ahowl11 on November 01, 2016, 11:39:24 PM
I've been listening to the RHCP since I was about 7-8 years old :) favorite songs?
Yes xeofox, pics please.
Money is always something you'll need my friend!
Title: Re: The Bacchanalia Thread
Post by: Jubal on November 01, 2016, 11:42:47 PM
Yeah, it's just a question of how much I want to do the stuff I'm being paid to do! I'm setting up as a one man private tutoring business for the next bit, anyhow :)

Anything is good at this point.

As I sit here, I realize how tired I am. I have only 3 more shifts now before my 12 shift marathon is over. I cannot decide if I want to clean my apartment, play minecraft, mod, or go to sleep.
Also, a thought thats been lingering, is that I'd like to be able to live luxuriously one day. This commercial and song gives me that inspiration. I only like the first minute, the rest is pointless. Anyways, the track is Easy Muffin by Amon Tobin.

Oh man, ahowl, asking me what's my favorite RHCP song is like asking me which small part of my favorite chocolate I like the most, haha :D
I love 'em all, but if I'd have to make a top 5, it'd probably be something like Under the Bridge, BSSM, Meet Me at the Corner, Venice Queen, Knock Me Down. I've actually played some of their songs live with my previous bands and such  :)
And take some rest. If your apartment needs cleaning and you don't have the energy/time, do it over a few days, room by room, don't overdo it, you need the energy.

Jubal, best of luck in your business endeavors, I hope all works out the best :D

Today is the 2nd day of my 3 day vacation. I ended up working 11 days in a row. Yesterday I went to a casino with my dad and we played some blackjack. It was good to get away for awhile. Today I'll be trying to mod.
Also my company has approached me saying it'd like for me to enter a development program to boost my skill set for the possibility of a promotion. We will see how that goes.
Title: Re: The Bacchanalia Thread
Post by: Vrosivs Avgvstvs Rakvs on November 05, 2016, 07:01:12 PM
Hang in there, man! Glad you spent a quality time away from work, we all need it! :)
Fingers crossed for the development program, I hope you get the promotion!

is there anyone here who knows this band:
Title: Re: The Bacchanalia Thread
Post by: ahowl11 on November 12, 2016, 06:35:54 AM
I've never heard of that band sorry.

Well it's been a long week of work and almost no modding for me. I'm thinking about maybe getting a second job to start saving money but at the same time I remember doing that a year and a half ago and how tired I was.
I guess we will see what my future holds!
Title: Re: The Bacchanalia Thread
Post by: Vrosivs Avgvstvs Rakvs on November 12, 2016, 02:21:50 PM
Never heard of it either.
I'm sure you'll work your way around that issue ahowl.
Meanwhile I should be studying hard as a mothertruck but I really can't, I'm worried about the lack of testing stuff here anyways, and I think I'm overloading myself with stuff but I just want to try to speed and iron things up. Attempting to mod the descr_strat, wish me luck, haha

Still no work and no offers of PhD supervision. :( Plodding onwards!

Hang in there mate. It will come eventually, sooner rather than later, I hope

Hi friends, I am very sad that I can rarely be with the team. I work in Atyrau region (sarmatians and parni motherland). ...not a long time at home now for health reasons (I am sick).

Title: Re: The Bacchanalia Thread
Post by: Vrosivs Avgvstvs Rakvs on January 24, 2017, 08:13:44 PM
Don't worry xeofox! Have a great time over there, take care and get well soon!
Can't wait to have you back with us :D

How's everyone doing? Things seem a tad quiet lately - anything I can do to help?

Hey mate!
We've started making very good progress just recently, but there's still lots to be done. The reason it's so quiet is that we're on slack when the work's being done since it requires active discussion. We're not bad though, certainly more lively than a month ago :D
How about you mate?
Title: Re: The Bacchanalia Thread
Post by: Jubal on February 07, 2017, 11:57:36 PM
I'm alright thanks - doing some thesis corrections and some tutoring work and muddling on by as usual :)

Glad to hear things are going well!

Ditto, mate! Glad you're tutoring and advancing with your thesis! :D
