Oh My God! I can't believe this day has actually come! Do you folks know what day today is? February 4, you say? Yes, that is true, but for me, and this site it means alot more than that, and it dwelves alot deeper than that too! Today whether you like it or not, is... CHUBE'S 12's 1ST BIRTHDAY!!! This is my 12th annual monthly update, is and definatly not my final monthly update, yes as hoped way back in September my site is still active at its year long anniversary! Yes, thats right your looking at a one of a kind, 1 year old site. Even better yet my Legend of Zelda The Site, site, will be 1 year old also, in only a little over a month! What?!? You want an update? You folks might not appreciate this update as much as i do, but it isn't a spoof! It is in fact a complete remake from memory, and facts of what the site used to look like a year ago today! It is in fact just a simple one page Index, because a year ago thats all this site was! Also for you people who don't care at all about the sites history i made a new spoof for you guys! It is called Animal Spoofination: The Life of Mr. Monkey!

Well, today after a tremendous look back at a glimpse of time, i'm celebrating the 1 year anniversary of the second day of my site. This day was very important much more so than the 1st day in terms of what went on, on this particular day. On the second day of (did you want me to say christmas?) my site increased dramatically and gained 3!!! new pages. YES, 3! I made an update similar to yesterday's an index page with remade pages coming off of it! Go here to see it, Index2. Nope, no spoofs today, i spent over an hour on this new index. Most the stuff on this recreated second day is completely new due to the fact that i deleated most of that ancient junk. The Metal Gear Solid Section is unchanged though. To get to it click the link on the left side of this site, or click the light green Index2 link above.
2-6-05
Wow! I've been so active lately! I've had absolutely no time at the computer this weekend due to my busy life, and yet i've updated everyday. I've decided not to make an Index update today due to the fact that a year ago i deleted the trigun page and said basically screw my fans i don't really care about them i have a life. This is true but it isn't a good Index update. Instead i updated Index2 because i realized that the Metal Gear Solid Section wasn't an index of pages a year ago. I really have been enjoying making these remade editions of the site. Some of the crap i've made up from memory might eventually fall in the spoof section due to their crappy quality. For instance all of Index2 has new junk made up for it. Index2 will most likely be a spoof due to its crappiness. In fact i made it bad on purpose to make fun of myself from a year ago because i was a complete amateur at geocities and it really show on the old pages of this site from last February, and early March. Check back for more Index's to come. If you are wondering how long these are going to go they are only going on until the one month anniversary or 1 year and 1 month anniversary, because after that the site became inactive and was reborn. These are to show the site in its previous life.
2-10-05
As promised Here's Index3! Okay, know this update is a little small compared to last time i made an index, but i'm trying my best here, and the fact is, it required me to take back a page and add to another one! Not much more i can say about it. More of these are coming, though even tomorrow and the next day.
2-14-05
Sorry i didn't make an Index4 on 2-11-05! I simply got busy and completely forgot about it! I have a confession though, i don't think i can make these on the exact days anymore! It is simply alot of work almost every day. It is about 1-3 updates a week! I just can't remake these that fast! Also i made an 11th website today! It is called Chubes 13. What is Chubes 13 for exactly? Well, the answer is for extra items that i would put on Chubes 12 but simply don't have a whole lot of room for. The truth is Chubes 12 is using 7.5 MB out of the 15 MB allotted on geocities.com. I know its only half, but i think that new site will be helpful by not hogging up all the space here. Eventually this site might need to expand to that site. Finally, no updates for this site today, sorry!
2-26-05
Index 4? No, haven't even started it. What have i done? Well, if you must know i beat ALTTP for the 8th time! I remade Ninja Fight, and i finished Ninja Fight 4! Now! Go to my comics site and watch Ninja Fight Deluxe, and Ninja Fight 4. Am i going to do an Index4? I might as a March 4 update! Though i think i would rather make a spoof for March 4! Update?!? No, i'm lazy! "If your lazy and you know it clap your hands! If your lazy and you know it clap your hands! If your lazy and you know it and you really want to show it just sit on your couch and fall asleep!" (*If you were really lazy you wouldn't clap your hands! DUH!!!) Note: that is supposed to be a song spoof of the worst child's song ever! Second Note: This is my 50th Update!!!

3-4-05
Okay, I've made Ninja Fight 5 on my Comic Site, and i made my ALTTP Walkthough Part VIII on my ALTTP Site! About the site remakes, i have missed like about 10, and i really don't want to remake these constantly! I may make a few more, but i just don't think i will do all of these! This site i just don't know anymore! Maybe i will continue it for months to come maybe it will go into slumber again! This site did die on its second month a year ago! 4 days from now will be the 1 year anniversary of the death of this site! 4 days from now will also be the 1 year anniversary of Legend of Zelda The Site! In fact this site only died back then because during all that time i was working on, and making all those other sites! At first i wanted to make Legend of Zelda The Site a proud site that would put this site to shame, and i succeeded! In fact for the longest time i was terribly ashamed of this terrible website! Read the old news bestiary it makes me sound so stupid, i thought i was hot stuff, and i thought that i was just like the other sites. Cool, and smooth, but it never happened i was a total failure with Chubes12! Chubes12 was, and still is a total mess! I revived this site for a good reason though, and that reason was to string all my sites together as one site! I enjoy working on this site, but i'm sick of spoofs, and remakes of old updates! It is old and flavorless! Site making is flavorless too! My tenth site is as good as dead and its not even finished! My fourth site never had much of a chance! Then there is Chubes13 which is a sorry excuse for another website, i mean come on, all it is, is a one page excuse for if this site ever gets too fat to handle one server! Now, i even have another lame unfinished website that i made today, it is called LOZTSMM, or legend of zelda the site majora's mask, which is meant to be a follow up to LOZTSALTTP, Legend of Zelda The Site A Link to the Past. The future of this site? I don't know maybe a couple more months left! A 2 year Anniversary may never happen...
Chubes 12: The Journal Of the Future!!!!
Yay, new Journal!
April:
4-4-05
I'm sorry if i raised concern last month! What i said wasn't saying the site was as good as dead again! If i let that happen i would fail in the consideration that this site died on 3-8-04. If i let it die on 3-4-05 it would die on the anniversary of its first death, and would good would that do the site? The future of the site, is greatly clouded i have no idea whether this site will die before its second year anniversary, or not. This site will go into hibernation for 5 weeks straight at the start of summer because i will be out exploring the world in the beginning of summer. This means i will miss July 4's... (HOLY SH..) my site has an anniversary on July 4?!? Anyways i won't update on that date and might have a late update for that. Update wise, as said last month, i don't have any inspiration left for making spoofs, and updating all the other sections would be a complete waste of my time being that they all all improved greatly upon on my other websites. This doesn't mean i'm not doing updates on my sites though, it just means i'm not doing updates on my original site. Actually, i would rather keep you people posted with what is going on with these rants i have every month. These rants i try to make as long as i can just to keep you guys informed on all my website updates, this mainly occurs because this is my mainpage, and it is the only website to have a proper update section. All the other websites just have information, and don't have any update system at all. Anyways as for updates on my other websites i have made Ninja Fight 6, Ninja Fight 7, and a Pivot called The Bandit. I also made Peace Sucks XLI-XLV on my Favorite Comics Website. In fact i have so many GIF Pivot movies now that i have no extra space for more Pivots, and i made a SECOND Pivot Website to host the less interesting Pivot movies to spare space on my original Favorite Comics Website. This new website is called www.geocities.com/favoritepivot. In addition to my huge updates on Favorite Comics i have made some new Parts to my ALTTP Guide! They are Parts IX, and Parts X! Now, i only have one small announcement left! This announcement is about my fourth site, a site i named a terrible failure last month! I actually have solved the whole music problem with it! It doesn't seem to like CD's of mine so it won't get any of my Final Fantasy Sound Tracks anymore! Now it gets Midi's which work incredibly well! It now has music all through it! This site is My FinalFantasyAdventures website! This site actually feels done to me now, but i know i will probably add to it sometime sooner or latter! Yes, this is all for this update! Ah, it seems i didn't pull any April Fools Jokes doesn't it? Actually, this is the truth i don't enjoy April Fools Jokes at all! This, and the fact that i get lazy are why i don't bother with website stuff like this!
4-23-05
Would you believe it if i told you? Well, maybe you won't but i will tell you anyways. Today, obviously i have no updates on this site. To take it further though i have no updates that i can think of at all on any of my websites.
Today i just felt like updating. Progress of my sites will instead be stated! This site lives only with the journal you are currently reading. Legendofzeldathesite i made a new background, and have more hits on it then this site. It also has an active GuestBook which surprises me to no end! My alttp site will probably have another update sometime in may with a new alttp guide part. My final fantasy adventures site may be updated with more music for sections other then final fantasy i-iii eventually! This is something new for that site, it currently has alot of new music on the first 3 games. The peacesucks comics are also being made slowly, and i've even considered remaking the first 5 comics. My metal gear solid website won't be updated with the metalgearac!d game because i hate psp, and turn based, strategy games! My unfinished 10th site may be updated eventually when i have more time! Well, i think that is all the progress i can muster for my sites! I guess i can fit some knowledge about Final Fantasy into here then! Final Fantasy games from what i've seen were never released in the UK until Final Fantasy VII. Final Fantasy Anthology is Final Fantasy IV and V in the UK. With Final Fantasy VI by itself. Final Fantasy Anthology is Final Fantasy V and Final Fantasy VI in the US. With Final Fantasy IV with Chrono Trigger called Final Fantasy Chronicles also in the US. Japan has Final Fantasy Anthology in a set of Final Fantasy IV, Final Fantasy V, and Final Fantasy VI! Final Fantasy I, IV, and VI were released in America on nes, and snes. Final Fantasy IV for americans was called Final Fantasy II, and it was the easy version. Final Fantasy VI was named Final Fantasy III in the US. Final Fantasy II was eventually taken from the japanese nes and remade with snes graphics along with Final Fantasy I, and released in the US, and UK as Final Fantasy Origins. It was later updated and made portable, and was called Final Fantasy I, and II Dawn of Souls. Final Fantasy III has never been released outside of Japan, but rumors say it is being made on the Nintendo DS.

Another month, another update, hmm what update is this? Let me check... Looks like update number 54! Now, the site is a year and three months old, three more months, and it will be a year, and a half old. Anyways, since my last update i have bought a total of 11 games. This is largely in fact of the Game Crazy 3 for $15 game sale thats been going on lately. They are selling NES, SNES, N64, PS1, GB, GBC, and anything else thats older then 2000. I personally bought 4 Gameboy games, and 5 Ps1 games with those offers. The games i bought for Game Boy were The Castlevania Adventure, Final Fantasy Adventure, Dragon Warrior I + II, and Dragon Warrior III. The Playstation games were Metal Gear Solid, Metal Gear Solid VR Missions, Gauntlet Legends, Bushido Blade, and Musashi. The two other games were Pokemon Emerald, and Classic Nes Series Castlevania. I bought all of these for pure enjoyment for my gameboy (some aren't) for my summer trip around Europe. Yes, unfortunatly this site will go inactive again over the summer. Last summer was unnecessary though. Last summer the first 5 weeks i sat lazily at home doing nothing website wise. The first five weeks this year will be spent in Europe. There will most likely be a june 4 update, but there won't be a july update. I may be able to fit in an august update, and i will probably do a special update when i get back to update on what 5 weeks away from home is like. Anyways due to me buying alot of rare Gameboy Games i'm super happy. Since, the last update i have tried, and failed to complete a new Alttp guide part. Today, i made a Final Fantasy Adventure / Sword of Mana page on my Final Fantasy Forgotten Legends website dedicated to the old not well known game boy games. I have been seeking them out personally, and own all three Final Fantasy Legends, and Final Fantasy Adventure so my collection is complete. Final Fantasy Legend I, Final Fantasy Legend II, and Final Fantasy Legend III are hard to find but not rare. Final Fantasy Adventure IS rare, and IS hard to find. From what i've seen of it so far though, i think Final Fantasy Adventure is better then all three Final Fantasy Legends. I'm planning on working further on my Final Fantasy Adventures website soon by adding music to Final Fantasy IV - VI, and no not Final Fantasy Adventure! Final Fantasy Adventures is one of my websites.
5-9-05
I actually didn't update anything other then cleaning up this page ALOT!!! Otherwise i made Ninja Fight 8 on my Comics Site. Also about my comics site i had to move all five Street Fight Pivots to the second Comic Site due to lack of bandwidth. Now, you can look at all the Ninja Fight/Peace Sucks Pivots on the first site, the Peace Sucks comics on the first site, The Mafia, and Mafia Pivot on the first site, and the Random Comic on the first site. On the second site you can look at all five Street Fight Pivots, and the four random Pivots. I made a webmaster bio on the left hand side of this page also today. The March update was put away in the old news section as with all the other news from the first year. If you would like to look at these old updates go to www.geocities.com/chubes12/oldnews. Finally, i added a link to a site of someone i know at my school. The link is www.tlair.com.
5-11-05
Do you wonder why i've updated so frequently lately? Well, for one i'm going to be gone alot this summer. Another reason is because for some reason i've felt super inspired to do website stuff lately. What did i do today? Well, i just spent about an hour, and a half finishing my Chubes 12 Random Site! Its finally done, and covers most of my favorite games. Right now all it covers are summary, and reviews of the games. I hope to add music to ALL pages eventually, in addition to pictures for ALL games. I even hope to add some of my favorite NES games that i forgot about adding. With all that to think about there is still plenty to be done on that site. About the music i said i was going to add for Final Fantasy IV - VI on my Final Fantasy Adventures site i realized i have ran out of bandwidth on that site so i will have to make a second site for Final Fantasy Adventures to cover the additional music, so i might not be able to do that update for a long while. The truth is that i might be able to do alot more updates next week, because i have short days with no homework, or classes that week. In addition to that i'm not even going to school wednesday, thursday, or friday due to a small toe nail surgery. That will result in the cutting of the edges off the sides of my toe nail.
Next week also has alot to bring up what with E3 2005, and Star Wars Episode III coming out. So expect probably an update or two next week. Thursday will be out of control with E3 2005, and Star Wars Episode III coming out on the exact same day. E3 2005 covers Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday.
5-17-05
I forgot to mention E3 also covers Tuesday in addition to Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday. Today, is Tuesday, and only new pictures have been released of Zelda Twilight Princess. Otherwise just a TON of news on XBOX 360.... XO!!!!!!!! Anyways i made Street Fight 6, and posted it on my comics Pivot site. If i find out anything more thats really interesting i will share it. Otherwise i will make an update for any further updates i do. Though, i won't be doing a whole lot, due to pain in my foot. Notice how this text is REALLY, REALLY small? Aha further news, a new GBA style... Game Boy Advance Micro. Now, another waste of money. First, they make an awesome Game Boy. Then, they make it smaller which was lame. Then, they gave it color. Soon after they quadrupled the graphic capabilities on Game Boy Advance which was all good, and cool. Then, they make it smaller with a light up screen, and rechargeable batteries. What?!? kind of joke is that? Now, they have made it even smaller with a brighter screen. Any better graphics? Of course not! Nintendo DS is suppossed to be its on console, but with no good games, or 3-D games all it is, is a stupid Game Boy upgrade. The graphics are only double the Game Boy Advance graphics anyways. Finally, lately i've been playing Legend of Zelda Classic Nes Series. This has lead me all the way to the last level. As i was playing that i brought out my Zelda Collector's Disc, and played my Legend of Zelda file on that, and got to the last level in it too. This has made me play both versions simultaneously. If i beat both at the same time, i will have beaten Legend of Zelda Quest 1, 3 times instead of once. Thats all for today's updates.
5-20-05
E3 2005 is over! Did i see anything cool? Nope, not really, i didn't see anything incredibly interesting. I did learn some cool stuff outside of E3 though. Metal Gear Solid 3: Subsistence has MGS3, MG, MG2, and much more all in one! This will be one of the coolest MG games of all time. MGS4 is said to be harder then the first 3 MGS's. A new James Bond game is coming out. Its called James Bond: From Russia With Love. It is actually based on the second James Bond Film from the 60's. About the new Zelda game i learned its called The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess. They actually didn't show anything new on it. Square-Enix overall was a no-show at E3. They did NOT show FFXII, or the rumored FFIII DS. They did however talk alot about Dragon Warrior VIII. With EA the makers of the James Bond games i am upset. They keep making the terrible Goldeneye: Rogue Agent games, but what i really want is a remake of James Bond Goldeneye 007 for the DS. About Legend of Zelda Original i have indeed beaten Quest 1, 3 times now. One last note on Nintendo, the new Nintendo Revolution coming out in 2006 will allow you to download all Nes, Snes, and N64 games via Wi-Fi. Finally, Advent Children the awesome FFVII CG Animated Film will come out on September 13, 2005. This all for E3, and elsewhere events for this week. Yay, i get to see Star Wars: Episode III tomorrow at 1:00 pm. I know its alot later then everyone else, but i have toe issues that MOST everyone else don't have. Hmm... forgot about this oh well here goes. Bought Doom for Snes, Guerilla War for Nes, Super Mario Bros 3 for Nes, Castlevania 2: Belmonts revenge for GB, Metal Gear Solid for GB, and Super The Empire Strikes Back for Snes. Another wave of 3 for $15 game offers that i bought at Game Crazy. If you haven't already i HIGHLY suggest you go to a local Game Crazy if you have one, and buy 3 old games for NES, SNES, GB, DC, PS, N64, and all other games older then 2000 for $15 per 3 games. You can even mix, and match between systems. So far i believe i've bought a total of 15 games for $75. Most of these games will get me quadruple what i payed for each individual game a sum of $5. In fact each game normally is worth about $15 so this whole lot costs normally anywhere from $150 - $300. You, can save money on rare games too just go to Game Crazy.
5-25-05
I feel terribly sick, and depressed. Its not my site, its not my life. Its in fact the state of zelda, final fantasy, ect. of geocities fansites. They don't exist they all died in 2001, 2002, and 2003. They have been dead for years. Even the sites that have moved have died in their newer locations. In even further detail, none of them would ever dream of writing a huge article like i do every single update. Most of them say last updated: XX-XX-XXXX ECT. Anyways it makes me sick to look at all these sites. I don't know how long i'll do it, or even how i'll do it, but i will make sure this site doesn't dissapear so easilly, or so silently. If this site dissapears it will dissapear with notice, and ALL of my sites will say INACTIVE! I don't want anyone to ever think that these are dead unless i say so, but if they ARE dead, i want people to know that. Finally, i've realized most people don't know my huge chain of sites exist. I've put ALOT of time, and effort into these sites, and most people don't know about them. This is because most sites on Geocities are infact dead. It seems the community is gone, and people nolonger care about searching for survivors such as myself. Another note to consider is that my site is one of the oldest ACTIVE sites in the geocities community, and probably has the most updates ever seen on any geocities website. Although i don't make real updates alot of times, i believe keeping a site active, and holding the attention of the community is far better then making huge updates. Making huge updates is tedious, and gets old. This is why i don't do that sort of thing as much as i used to in the early beginning days of my early sites. Whoa! I just realized this is my 6th update this month. This has been probably my third most active month ever on this site.
5-29-05
Removed ALL Pivot comics from Favorite Comics, and put them in FavoritePivot. Made Ninja Fight 9, and put it on FavoritePivot. Anything else nope. Any conversation to put here? Nope, don't have anything to ramble on about. This is rather strange for me actually. Also 60th update.
Chubes 12: Summer Vacation Edition!
This month, and then some, I will cover my summer vacation as best i can!
June:
6-4-05
Today, this site is a year and a third old. This may be my last update this month. There will be no updates in July. I will probably be able to do the August Update. I'm sorry about the news of a (nearly) inactive summer for this site. This is all because of the fact that i'm going on a 5 week vacation out of the country starting 6-17-05. I won't be able to do anything that day, and possibly the entire week before. In fact i'm busy with end of the year stuff until the last day of school. I leave the country the following day. Update wise, i don't have anything as of right now. Of my video game life. I've bought an NES. I've bought a Nintendo Gamecube Gameboy Player. On this GB Player i've done pokemon trading galore. (yes, i like the gameboy games they make. They aren't complete junk like everything else on the market. EX: Sports, Xbox, Crash Bandicoot, ect.) I may do some site related stuff none the less while i'm gone though. This would mainly be to continue, and update the Peace Sucks Comics. If your curious the truth is The Mafia doesn't end with Mafia XV, it goes all the way to Mafia XXV now. I'm just confused with how i can continue from a dead man. I'm thinking the new comics should follow the path of his son.
6-16-05
I'm updating today to warn any visitors to come in the next 5 weeks are in for disapointment. That's right i'm shutting this site down for 5 weeks or more. This does not mean the site is inactive, it clearly means that i will be no where near a computer for 5 weeks. This also does not mean i'm putting the site offline. This is something i simply don't have time to do, and something i simply don't want to do. Otherwise i don't have much to update on, other then stating that i have gotten a new link on my zelda site, in addition to a new post there. New games i've bought are, De Ja Vu for NES, and Mega Man Battle Network 1 for GBA. Now, for a bit of rambling on about my sites. This site, which is the first site has over 1,000 views. My second site, the zelda site has about 200 more views then this site. 1,200 views total. The other sites have on average 200 views. This means that all though i have about 10 - 15 geocities sites, only the first two are known, and only the first two have over 1,000 views. This site is barely known though, and its not at all popular. The zelda site is quite well known, and gets a signature in the guestbook at least once every 1 - 2 months, and getting more frequent all the time. The popularity is most likely because i put links to these sites in the google search engine. Anyone can do this, its actually quite easy. It brings in alot more people too. Since i won't be here for the monthly update on July 4, i might as well say that i'm really excited that the site is active into June, and beyond. I am rather sad, that i can't update on July 4th though. Why, might you ask? If you really need to ask, i must laugh. Unless your not an american like me, then i won't. An american asking that question needs to get their head checked. For the utterly confused readers. July 4, is The Fourth of July. Americas independence day. The day that over 200 years ago America declared independence. Having my monthly update on the fourth of july would be a total honor. Don't worry though, i will try to make future updates in my Peace Sucks Comics while i'm away. (By hand, ON paper of course!)
6-25-05
I'm back but not for long. I can update today, but i'm very unsure if i can update at a later date. Keep in mind the next time i update may be 8-4-05. Right now i'm at a distant relatives house, which is north of London, England. I'm one week into my 5 week vacation. Next, i'm going to the england back country. Specifically Devon, England. It will be great with time to relax, and time to swim in the pool. My first week was great. I was in London, and i saw great places, like Big Ben, and huge churches. One church i went onto the roof, and looked out over all of London. About my Peace Sucks comics, i have finished, and revised comics XLV - L. I have also started a rough draft of comics -XIX - -X!
6-30-05
Surprisingly i'm back again at another computer. This time i'm in Devon, England on an employees computer at the hotel i'm staying. (They're currently not here right now, they don't really need to know.) It was okay to use their computer, though because they're installing an internet center as i type, and no one is using this office today. (Obviously i got permission too!) This week is my second week of my 5 weeks. It has been great, i don't feel home sick, because this feels more like home then a vacation. I have indeed relaxed, and gone to the pool alot. (Almost every day i've gone to the pool.) I went to an old cemetary to trace my family roots, but they were so poor they had no tombstones... It was very unsatisfying there, and as mentioned dissapointing. It made me really think deeply when i saw a whole group of britain tombstones who died in Irag, and i hope others can feel the pains of war as i did at that sight. Since, my last update i have not made any further comics. This is largely due to playing Breath of Fire II alot on my GBA. Between my first two weeks, my second week being nearly over, i feel that i will have themes for which games i play each week. Last week was Pokemon, because i played Pokemon Leaf Green from start to finish, and then played Pokemon Emerald, and caught more pokemon. This weeks theme was Breath of Fire II. Next weeks theme will most likely be the Zelda Series. I have not yet decided which game it will be though. Next week i will be in Ireland, and i suspect it will be a little slow just like this week. As said before i'm unsure if i will get another computer in the next three weeks. Now, i must say goodbye to June, and hello to July. Now, i greatly hope that i can get a computer on July 4!
July:
7-2-05
I'm still at my hotel in England. I can update now, but i can almost guarantee that in two days on the 4th, that i won't be able to update. In two days marks the year, and a half mark for this site. Also in two days America's day of indepence will occur. In twelve days France's day of independence will occur. I can't work any more on this site for awhile, but hopely i will be wrong like i already have been so far. Tomorrow, i'm heading to Ireland, and there isn't any internet places i can go so i may not be able to update for quite awhile. The week after Ireland i head to France, and the week after that i head to Germany. In other words i have three weeks left of my vacation then i can update normally again. I have been bored since my last update so i read the next book in the cirque du freak book series. It is pretty good, but unless you live in England, or Ireland you can't read it for another half a year. This site will be nearly two years old when that book is finally released outside of Great Britains territory. Unfortunatly, its such a good book now i have to find the other two books... About my Peace Sucks comics, i just haven't gotten around to them yet. About my gaming life, i'm nearly done with Breath of Fire II. Now, i'm at the last two bosses, whom are side by side in the last cave. If i can i will update properly on the 4th, but i doubt it will happen.

I did it, i scored, i did what i thought not possible, i have pulled off the monthly update that i am so accustomed to. Today is the Fourth of July
America's day of independence, and the one and a half year anniversary. I can't do any further updates then two days ago about what i've been doing except. I have now beaten Breath of Fire II. I have bought the three unreleased books in my favorite book series The Saga of Darren Shan, a.k.a. Cirque Du Freak. Two of these i've already read. Now, i'm reading the third, and last of them. This book is the twelth, and final book in the series. It shows the climactic finish to the series. I'm about halfway through it now. How did i get this unexpected update you ask? I got it through an internet cafe. Ireland is abundant in them, England is not. Thankfully i'm in Ireland right now. I haven't yet started playing the Zelda games for this weeks theme. I'm not even sure which game it will be. Also i forgot to say this earlier, but i beat level 5 in Zelda Oracle of Seasons a week ago. About Ireland it is good, has way more people then England, and the food is huge. It seems more like America then England in many ways. This marks the end of this months monthly update. I don't think i will update soon though, because i will be back by August 4 so i don't need to update urgently.

This was a previously unnecessary update, but due to the bombings in london yesterday that killed over 50 people i have reason to update. I'm updating to say that i was not in london yesterday, but two weeks ago. It happened in an area that i used almost every day if not every day for an entire week. I drove past london a week ago. I literally could have been a victim if i timed my vacation a little bit differently. For this i'm thankful i wasn't there. I however feel terrible for the victims that were there. Now, for typical site talk. This third week in Ireland, ended up NOT being a Zelda themed week, it ended up being an odds, and ends week. I wrapped up Pokemon Leafgreen, and i read the last Darren Shan Saga Books. I think next week will be the Zelda themed week. The Zelda games i'm choosing from are the oracle games, ALTTP, and TMC. Mostly the latter two games. This update once again came through the Internet Cafe i used 4 days ago. On the same computer in fact. Next week i will head to Paris, France. I will await to see their reaction to losing the Olympics for 2012. They lost it to London, England. Once again i feel bad for London, England for although they got the Olympics they lost alot of people only a day after. This is all i have to say for this update.

I got home on July 23, 3 days ago. I chose not to update sooner, because of the same excuse as all other webmasters... HARRY POTTER, BOOK 6, THE HALF BLOOD PRINCE. All caps... its THAT important. I am only a little under a third through as of now however. Lately i have cleaned up, and reorganized due to messes my siblings made while i was gone on vacation. I have also played Maniac Mansion, and Its deluxe edition like a maniac. (However, not the kind in the game.) I also spent a half a day at one of their houses, and that kept me pretty busy. It was fun though i played Luigi's Mansion like old times. (Yes, another game concerning the word Mansion...) Recently i bought Super Mario All Stars + Super Mario World for my SNES, and i bought Metroid Zero Mission for my GBA. Concerning my Peace Sucks comics i have not put them on the computer yet. I have so much to do to deter myself from doing those. Mostly reading TWO brand new Nintendo Power Issues that i missed during my vacation. One is a chore, two is, well two much to handle. I am not saying that i hate Nintendo Power as i did in the days of old, what i'm saying is that the new Nintendo Power's are much bigger, and two of them is a overwhelming. Nintendo Power from the looks of it so far, off of what i've read is much better then it used to be. Originally i bought a full years subscription of it to get the Zelda 4 game collectors edition demo disc. Now, i just renewed with the 3 free issue offer. (I probably won't re-subscribe, because i don't want to until another great deal emerges. Hint: Zelda) One more thing before i end this update. There is two updates that i wrote by hand between this update, and July 8's update. They are the July 14, and the July 20 updates. Here you can see them now below typed up in all their glory. If you include both updates below, this is the 70th update!
7-14-05
Updates aren't for everyone. I know this, because many sites die to lack of updates. Updates are also difficult to remember to do. Its not just remembering them thats difficult. Trying to do updates is also hard at times. I tried one yesterday at a French Internet Cafe located at my French hotel, and as i saved for the update the computer claimed that i couldn't save due to safety reasons. This is why my update is being written by hand the following day on paper to be typed later. (Yes, its been typed now! How else do you think you're reading it now?) France has been good to me so far. Two days ago, i climbed the Arc De Triump, and the Eiffel Tower. Yesterday, I went to Notre Dome, a French Museum (It was made up of two ajoined Mansions, which talked about the French Revolution.), and St. Chappelle's Church. (St. Chappelle's Church contained some of the greatest stained glass displays in the world. About my gaming Life, i'm working on Beating The Legend of Zelda: The Minish Cap for the third time, and I've played both green Pokemon games for Game Boy Advance also this week. I played the latter two only in fits of boredom. To think i've brought over 25 games with me, and so far i've only played between 5-10 of them so far. Though i know i would have been sorry if i hadn't brought more though, because i might have brought all the wrong games. Other then games i read the Darren Shan, Vampire Blood Trilogy containing books 1-3. (Yes, i read ALL 3!) Next week, i'm moving on to Munich, Germany. I'm in Paris, France as of now. I will leave here in two days. Today in France, is Bastille Day. Bastille Day is July 14. It marked the end of the French Revolution. (Remember the Museum, about the French Revolution? This is why i went to it.) It is France's Equivolent to America's Independence Day called the 4th of July, which came and went 10 days ago... Tonight, I will visit a late at night fire works show. This marks the end of this update, as i have nothing more to say. My fifth, and final update for my fifth, and final week of my vacation will probably be at home.

I had further problems on the computer yesterday. I did a few things, and the Internet Cafe was at my hotel, in Germany. Now, i'm writing by hand... AGAIN!!!
Now, i only have three days left in Germany, then i go home. There isn't much to do in this small town, an hours drive away from Munich, Germany. I'm in Schirzee. (I know i spelled that wrong, don't hassle me with it.) My hotel is much better then the one in Paris, France. Its as good as the one in Devon, England. This town is pretty, it seems like a paper house snow village, only real. Its very religous too! It only has two parallel roads also. With my Peace Sucks Comics, I'm done with comics -XIX - -X which adds a total of 10 new comics. I did -XVII yesterday, and -XVI - -X today! A few weeks ago I finished XLVI - L! That means that I have 15 new comics between the two to redraw for my comics site! That also means that I have made a total of 75 Peace Sucks comics now! Lately I've beaten The Minish Cap for the third time, and i've become adicted with Dragon Warrior II on Gameboy. (No, its not that terrible Monsters II game!) I've enjoyed it so much that i want to buy Dragon Warrior IV for my NES now! I've played Dragon Warrior II enough that i now have a boat on it. Now, unfortunatly i get killed by unbelievably tough monsters in distant lands quite often. Now, i might need to retire it for a later date. After i get home updates will go back to their normal pattern of every 4th of each month. When i get home i plan to get any of the following games: Maniac Mansion (NES), Final Fantasy (NES), Dragon Warrior IV (NES) (Possibly I-III also), Secret of Mana (SNES), Chrono Trigger (SNES), and Maniac Mansion 2 (PC). After a week of at home time, I will enjoy a half a week vacation at a comfortable lake of course it will be camping. It will be my third visit in fact. The second around the same time last year. After that i have a month of summer before school. This marks the end of this update.
Chubes12 Journal: The rest of summer, and school?
Read on.
August:
8-4-05
I remember making an update exactly a year ago today. Back then i said the site was a dead, yet still half a year old. Though i was wrong it became alive with that update. Now, the site is a year and a half old, and has remained very much alive since that update a year ago today. Since my last update i have not gotten ANY of those games. I have instead gotten 3 books on Amazon. Goosebumps book #62 Monster Blood IV, Darren Shan Book Trilogy: Vampire Rites Books 4-6, and Darren Shan Book Trilogy: Vampire War Books 7-9. The goosebumps book completes my goosebumps original book collection. For the longest time i thought it was complete too... I plan to get the games listed in update 7-20-05 later, but i don't have much money right now. Since my last update i finished Harry Potter Book 6, watched Harry Potter Movies 1-3, changed my negative addititude towards Movie 3 to a positive additude, watched Batman Movie 2, and Finished my ALTTP Guide Part X which covers Dark World Level 3. Also i made ALTTP Parts XII, XV, and XVIII which cover Optional and Required Items, in addition to a full part dedicated to the final battle with Ganon! I also read 3 Nintendo Powers in a row! Not to mention getting to King Boo in my nephew's Luigi's Mansion for him. About that lake trip i talked about, thankfully it got canceled! Thats why this update took place. I have nothing more to say for this update.
8-8-05
Today i've written ALTTP Guide Part XIII covering Dark World Level 5 in my ALTTP Guide on my ALTTP site! This means i'm now 3/4 through my ALTTP Guide, and done with 2 of the most annoying levels in the game which i rate the 2nd, and 3rd most annoying levels in the game out of four, and i wrote both within a week of eachother. Now, i have my favorite level Dark World Level 6, Level 7 the fourth worst level, level 8 the worst level, and the Four Sword Dungeon left to cover in my ALTTP Guide!
8-11-05
I have started to turn the 15 new Peace Sucks Comics into computer files, but redrawing is boring, and takes some time, so i've only finish 2 so far. I also started another project with the comics. In addition to making new comics both going backwards, and forwards i decided to redo the comics i already have to make a cleaner, nicer plot, with easier to read print, and no more racist looking stick figures. Although this was never the intention, mostly just laziness. What was pointed out? Hmm... i don't know a white ninja killing plain black stick figures, and mocking them. Yeah, that has been changed, and i may change the name eventually also, as it is very crude. You know "Peace Sucks", and all. Anyways i redid -IX - -V! In it no big text changes except the text is readable text now, and no more black plain head. They all have hair, and are all white. It looks alot cleaner now, but now people will complain that they are "stick figures".
8-15-05
Made Street Fight 7 pivot, which is a prequel to Street Fight 1. Finished Peace Sucks comics XLVI - L. With the 5 new Peace Sucks comics they seem heavy with text, because they are. With the new style that i'm using, i am able to put alot more conversation in the comics. Thanks to that i was able to compact the 5 comics into 4 comics, and i made an entirely new comic to fill the last spot where L used to be. Anyways i've posted both things in their appropriate sites. Next with the Peace Sucks comics i plan to make -XIX - -X! A total of 10 comics that prequel the 5 comics that i remade with the new style. My plan is to make all the prequel comics through Zero with the new style. Then, eventually i will move on through the rest of the comics. This will take some time so don't expect it too soon, because some comics will simply get makeovers, others will be completely changed. Basically i don't want Joe to die, and i don't want him to kill his father. I want to change the look of the characters, because it makes them look like pure evil twisted murderers, and i don't want that image. I'm done with this update.
8-17-05
Made Cheese Page III on my Cheese Site! Ahh, i seriously love cheese, and making fun of its pictures ... priceless! I'm trying to update that site every so often so it isn't deleated by geocities. Last i updated it was a year ago this month i believe, but i could be wrong.
8-18-05
Updates seem more regular then i ever imagined they would be for the middle of August. Most people slack on their sites during the summer. I update more frantically as fewer, and fewer days of the summer exist. Today i made Walkthrough Part XIX covering The Four Swords Dungeon on my ALTTP Walkthrough! I plan to make a Dark World Level 6 Walkthrough Part for my ALTTP Walkthrough soon. I also plan to start making those 10 Peace Sucks Comics that prequel the earliest of Prequel Comics that i made earlier in the summer on computer.
8-21-05
The past few days have been very busy, and soon i will be going to a funeral, so i haven't gotten much of the plans in my previous update done. I finished the first of the 10 comics today. It took a bit longer then expected, because i had to remake the first comic to better suit the following ten. I've also run into a terrible snag. I wrote so much story for the comic to sum up what happens before the first prequel comics that it took 10 comics to cover all the story to prequel the earlies prequel comics, and although you already know this, this is a problem, because i will finish the first 5, and then you people will have to wait some time for me to bridge the gap. It must be done this way though, because i can't simply cut a 10 part story in half either way, and i can't shorten it down, because it would ruin them, so you people will just have to put up with the wait. Thankfully i'm done with the first one, and have only 9 more to go. Some time in the next few days i hope to have the first 5 done, but i can't guarantee it. Since i'm finally working on the comics i feel i can give you the raughdraft of the 10 comics, so that you can know what happens even if you can't see, and read what happens. -XIX George, and Michaels Parents are murdered, they fight back!
-XVIII George, and Michael start renting an apartment -XVII George, and Michael buy guns at a gun shop along with licences. Michael buys two handguns, George buys a shotgun. -XVI George signs up for a ninjetsu class -XV George learns of an ancient broken sword -XIV Michael goes out on his own (Brothers split up) -XIII George learns the sword tip is at the museum, with sword handle stolen -XII Michael falls in love, and makes plans to marry -XI George trys out dating
-X Geoge finds out about whereabouts of the stolen sword handle. Well, thats it. I hope to make the Dark World Level Level 6 ALTTP Guide soon!
8-22-05
I made up for the laziness of the past few days today. How is this? This is how. I made my A Link to the Past Dark World Level 6 Walkthrough Part XIV Guide Part today! I also edited the -End of Part (So and So)- on the parts that lacked it. This is all i did today for site related things, and unfortunatly i can't do anything in the next few days, due to a funeral, and guests staying IN the computer room, because it is also a Guest Room, go figure. Also one last mention. Tomorrow is the one year anniversary of the first day of the desperate end of the summer 10 days straight of updates! Will i do that this summer, no unfortunatly not. Although those numerous updates were great for the site, and brought it back to life, the 10 days didn't end well for me. If you don't want to read the following gruesome true story of mine you don't have to.
I lost my Big Toe Nail on my Left Foot on the 10th day, which was 9-1-04. September 1, 2004. The first day of the month a week before school started. It should have gone great, but it didn't. I voluntered at my school barbeque, because it was my new school, and i had to look good. I sacrificed my Big Toe Nail to leave my horrible old school to go to my new school, and surprisingly it was absolutely worth it. Though i would strongly suggest against sacrificing one of your Big Toe Nails for your new school if your going to a new school. I lost mine by accident by wearing flip flops, and slamming my Toe Nail down on the bar near the ground on the BBQ. It didn't come off either, it was sticking up at an odd angle, and it didn't hurt at all, and only small drops of blood came off. It felt more like i was being robbed of all blood pressure, rather then getting a huge blast of blood pressure. I felt very fragile by the time i got to the hospital though. They then numbed my toe, and cut off my Toe Nail. They then put a pad between the flaps of skin. One is the outer / Cuticle layer of skin. The other is the Nail Bed that rests behind the Nail. The pad rested on top of my Big Toe bone, and inbetween the two flaps of skin. It was painful, and i never looked at the Nailess Toe, until some Nail was sticking out. Yes, it had to grow all the way out. First it was Brown, then it was Yellow past a certain point. Now, I can see a small part of white Nail at the bottom, and the top is at the edge of my Toe like usual. Most of it is still Yellow though, and they had to cut the left, and right edges of my Toe Nail as it grew out, because it grew out wrong. Now, a year later it looks like a normal Toe Nail just slightly Discolored.
-End of Update 8-22-05- (P.S. Do you think that is a good sign off? I probably won't do it again i just felt like making fun of it at least once.)
8-23-05
Quick Update before relatives come. Completion of 8 remaining comics underway. Today i got bored of making the the second of the 10 comics so i made a second Peace Sucks Logo. This time its a Family Tree so that you can know the whole cast of the Peace Sucks comics thus far. Don't worry i posted it on my Comics Site so you can see it. Just fininished Comic 2. End of update, i will try to continue work on the remaining 8 comics soon!
8-25-05
My relatives are gone so i have the computer again. I just made ALTTP Walkthrough Part XVI covering Dark World Level 7! I haven't worked on the 8 Peace Sucks comics yet! I decided to postpone work on those comics, to put my time towards completion of my ALTTP Guide. I only have the last level left to write then i will be done with the ALTTP Guide. I hope to write that last level sometime in the next 4 days, because in 4 days it will be the one year anniversary of starting the guide on my ALTTP mini site. Though i only posted small ALTTP related guides that day. Those guides i made for my Zelda Site many months before. I actually started the guide on the following day, but i want to consider the day before the first day just to finish the ALTTP Walkthrough a little faster. When i finish the guide i will have beaten ALTTP 11 times, and will have finished my first video game walkthrough. One last thing, yesterday way the 2 week mark before school starts for me, so i don't have too much more time to work on my sites, so expect things to slow down in two weeks. Also if you were curious, this is my 80th update!
8-26-05
I didn't really do much of anything today. I wanted to take a break from my ALTTP Walkthrough to be honest. I did something else instead in the late hours of today. I did something special. Something i wasn't sure if i would do again. I made an update today! True i make site updates all the time, but those are my sites. This update was on my SITE. That site? You're looking at it. You are reading the update log on the site i updated at this very moment. Yes, thats right i updated THIS SITE for the first time in a LONG time. I made a new spoof. Its another Diabloooo Spoof. It is Diabloooo 51 <Canceled> It is meant to be a spoof of typical Forums. It has the Animals bickering at each other like old times, except this time about a game that WASN'T released. This is a Forum Spoof making fun of typical chat participants. It is another interesting addition to the Diabloooo Series, the Animal Series, and a new Spoof, spoofing Forums. Check it out in the Spoof Section.
8-27-05
Its done, my ALTTP Walkthrough is finally done! It covers the entire ALTTP game, and can be used for both SNES, and GBA. It even covers The Four Swords Dungeon! It can be found on my ALTTP Site! I'm so relieved i finished this Guide. I finally finished my first Walkthrough. It took 2 days shy of a year, but i'm glad it didn't take more then a year. I hope to make a MC Walkthrough sometime in the near future! Don't get your hopes up though! About the Peace Sucks Comics i currently have the first 3 of 10 done, so the first set of 5 comics should be done sometime soon!
8-29-05
Today is the 1 year anniversary of my ALTTP Walkthrough Start! I simplified, cleaned up, and better connected the Walkthrough on my ALTTP Site today! My biggest achievement today in my opinion however is my Me Homies: Adventure! It features the entire Me Homies Cast on a single Web Page, but is VERY LONG! It shows one Angel looking through the group, and finding people willing to go on his Adventure! Go to my spoof section to view it! I'm very excited about this new addition to the Me Homies Series! Me Homies 1-5 introduced the Angels! I thought that was the end, but recently i got inspiration to bring them back again even though none of them were new anymore! Now, i can make a second series to continue making fun of the hilarious Angels. I hope to make a second one that shows the Angels selected for the Adventure going out on their Adventure. In the Adventure i might even have them split away one at a time, or die one at a time, or kill each other. I will definatly have alot of competition between the Angels also. I have no idea when, or if i will make a second one, but i really hope i do. This is the the revival of my Spoof Section. The spoof update 3 days ago was the spark that set off a bonfire!
8-30-05
With the Me Homies: Adventure, i turned it into a series, but unfortunatly i made the ENTIRE series today, so i can't make anymore. The first one that i made yesterday is a direct sequel to the original Me Homies Series! The sequels to Me Homies: Adventure have absolutely nothing to do with the original Me Homies Series. The Me Homies: Adventure editions i made today are: Me Homies: Adventure 1-2, Me Homies: Adventure 2, Me Homies: Adventure 3, Me Homies: Adventure 4, Me Homies: Adventure 5, and Me Homies: Adventure 6! That's a total of 6 new editions to the series! It was supposed to be an Adventure series where they died one by one, but i didn't like that so i turned it into a fighting free for all, but i didn't want angels to kill each other, so it became a messed up survivor series where the better angel voted off the weaker one. Naturally, i wanted to see the outcome so the whole series was done instantly. I could have made all 6 sequels into a single sequel, but i didn't want to scroll through the picture list so i made them into a big series. Another thing that became a problem was the fact that when making the original Me Homies Series i made the text color in #2 different then in #1, so i made the text color different in all of them. By the time i got halfway through the Me Homies: Adventure Series i had trouble coming up with new text colors. Now, unfortunatly my Spoof Inspiration has once again left me! I don't know how i can make more spoofs for my Spoof Section... Anyways enjoy the Me Homies: Adventure Series! Wow, this is the 15th update this month! This means that this month has more updates then the first month of the site had! This month has been a blessing for this site!
