Melody C. Turtle 🐢🌌 Author VTuber @melodycturtle.bsky.social · Oct 16

Hi, I'm Melody C. Turtle, an author and VTuber from Australia.

On stream I like to play Mystery games and RPGs, build Lego sets, and host quiz shows. Off stream I write stories, make games, and just generally have too many projects going at once.

Nice to meet y'all, hope you enjoy your stay.~

Reminder that The Legend of Zelda has its own page on the Lego website, despite there only being a single Legend of Zelda set.

Gonna need to look into whether there's a way for me to watch this with English subs without giving Crunchyroll money later. 😅

Group A is significantly harder than the open round, but this dumbass strategy is apparently still good enough for me to progress, even if it's down to Group B. 😅

Screenshot of the results of a user's Champion's Meeting Cancer Cup Open League Group A Round 2 run in Umamusume. The user used El Condor Pasa, Sakura Bakushin O, and Matikanefukukitaru, all in their 2 star outfits. The user won once and lost four times, allowing them to advance to the Group B Finals.

Isn't she supposed to do this after you finish the event story? Why is she already dead?

The gacha gods have blessed me this day, but now I'm afraid this has eaten up all my luck, and when I go to pull in Umamusume next month I'm gonna get screwed. 😅

WHAT!?

This was my first pull on the banner, what the fuck are you talking about!?

I was gonna do my usual 10 10-pulls to grab the gacha sticker vouchers, but like, I already got the two I wanted, I can do without KAITO. I guess I'm done pulling for now?

(I forgot to grab the log in bonus crystals from my gift box, so my actual record is 116415, oops. 😅)

Gonna be pulling on the new Nightcord banner, and probably again later this month to see if I can fix my fuckup with the anniversary petal things, so let it be known that this is my new record for how many crystals I have on my PJSK account.

Mornin' folks.
Monday arrives. No one is happy about this.
At least I slept... decently?
Hope y'all have a good day.

Melody C. Turtle 🐢🌌 Author VTuber @melodycturtle.bsky.social · 21h

Bed time.
A little shy of a writing quota tonight, but I'm still pretty happy with my progress. Should hopefully finally finish it up sometime next week.
Productive-ish day I think. I can see the floor of my wardrobe again, so that's progress on the decluttering front.
G'night.

Part of me wants to try and find, like, a cheap midi keyboard or something to help with my music stuff now that I've actually taken the plunge, but at the same time, I can't help but feel like it's still way too early for me to actually be putting money into this hobby yet. 😅

FC of the day.
I know the name is supposed to mean "thousand light years", but I keep reading it phonetically.
Just, like, "Clyde" without the D.

Making music is fun when I'm just sorta fiddling around and seeing what works.

Making music is frustrating when I have a specific tune in my head and I don't have a good enough grasp on pitch to figure out what notes are playing in that tune.

Melody C. Turtle 🐢🌌 Author VTuber @melodycturtle.bsky.social · 1d

I keep looking at my dumb little team of 2* Umamusume for the Champions Meeting and feeling like this really shouldn't be working, but twice now I've managed to snag three wins in a run when I never got that even once last time.

Like, am I getting lucky, or is my braindead strat actually working?

Melody C. Turtle 🐢🌌 Author VTuber @melodycturtle.bsky.social · 1d

The double Agnes combo.

...Fascinating how visual excitement can invoke such heavy breathing!

Miistve Kng #406 - Backups

I sure do love being paranoid about everything. 🙂

Panel 1: A character in a tie (Admin) stands at a paper shredder, feeding a document into it. A stack of papers sits off to the side. He says "Ah, decluttering. I've made my backups, time to get rid of all these old papers lying around." with a smile on his face.

Panel 2: A slightly zoomed in view of the previous panel, with the document now going through the shredder, as Admin looks up with a more blank expression. He says "...Did I remember to make backups?"

Mornin' folks.
Woke up at, like, 3, and then briefly got to sleep again around 4 before waking up again. Not ideal for a Sunday, but it is what it is I guess.
Hope y'all have a good day.

Bed time.
Writing quota met. 🙂
Kinda feels like I've been working on this chapter forever, but it's getting there. I feel like things will run smoother once I get past it, assuming life doesn't throw another massive fucking curveball at me again.
G'night.

Thinking about how PopCap is basically just, like, the Plants vs Zombies studio now, and all the other weird experimental games they made in the past just sorta got left at the wayside.

Where's the Insaniquarium mobile reboot, huh? I'd download it.
