An apology and a lesson

Furry Reddit - Thu 24 Oct 2013 - 15:06

To start with the apology, I would like to apologize for a post where I promised all that asked drawings. I started off with an infection, then a lot in my life happened at once, I got distracted, and honestly forgot for a while. I feel that this was very dishonest of me to promise everyone something and not follow through. I will say though that I will be doing all of them this weekend, and I will still do any new requests. For those that have no clue what I'm talking about, I had a post where people could post what they wanted me to draw so I could get practice and connect with my friends in this fandom (I'm not exactly part of it, but you guys are an awesome community)
Also, the lesson I have to tell you is that if you have an infection of any kind, GET IT CHECKED OUT IMEDIATELY!!!

Time to Wander [Fursuit music video]

Fursday - Watch List - Thu 24 Oct 2013 - 10:54

Tastefully put together music video by german film maker Willion. Has narrative and steady camera shots plus some nice touches like the raccoon in the bin.

Well, here it is. My fourth fursuit music video. This time I took one of my favourite songs "Time to Wander" by Gypsy and the Cat. And from what I can tell it is certainly an improvement from the last music video, which was finished alrady 10 months ago. This time I was alot quicker with the editing and all simply because I felt more lucky about the footage and the idea in general. I hope you guys will like it as well. Feel free to leave a comment below. I'm looking forward to any kind of critique ^^.

NOTE: This Video was done purely out of pleasure for fursuiting and video making. There is absolutely no commercial intention behind it!!!! Best regards yours Willion ;)

The canine virus that doesn't respect the species barrier

Fursday - Reading List - Thu 24 Oct 2013 - 03:00
Canine distemper virus (CDV), a relative of the human measles virus, was first described in dogs and infection causes fatal pneumonia and encephalitis (inflammation of the brain).But this virus is incredibly promiscuous and can infect jump into a variety of different animals - usually with catastrophic effects.Two suspected CDV outbreaks, the first in 1988 and a second in 2000, killed thousands of Baikal then Caspian seals.The virus has also ripped through Africa, with fatal outbreaks in silver-backed jackals and bat-eared foxes and catastrophic die-offs in wild dog populations that continue to this day.

The latest victim of this virus is the Siberian tiger, struggling enough as it is with shrinking habitat and poaching. The glimmer of hope is that there's a vaccine for CDV, but the problem is in cost effective delivery. Scientists are currently looking for where the source of the infection outbreak is happening so they can do a targeted vaccination programme.

Churbles - A Beautiful 3D RPG Adventure

Gaming Furever - Furry Game News - Thu 24 Oct 2013 - 01:00

Churbles. No I didn't sneeze, that’s the name of this adorable looking game being kickstarted by the indie studio CrashGem. They describe the game in the following quote.

"Churbles is a fantasy simulation RPG focusing on the heroic efforts of adorably tough hamsters, slated for a 2014 release on PC, MAC, and Linux. A Churble is an adorably tough hamster, sporting magical powers and elemental affinities. They reside in an underground world of diverse biomes, elemental nodes, exotic locales and fortified communities—all interconnected by a series of endless tunnels and tubes. This is a world fraught with perilous dangers and hungry monsters; the Churbles fight hard to defend their homes and expand their colonies, but they could really use your help. Their world in peril, you must choose one Churble to become a legendary hero. Together you will quest for resources, glory, and fame; all while expanding the size and scope of your colony, recruiting heroes to your cause, and thwarting vile plots and sinister villains."

Churbles 2

Now if that doesn't sell you on it right away I don't know what will. Well maybe the turn based combat system, awesome character customization, or wide array of classes and weapons with "over 63 possible combinations" will. The game will also feature 2-3 player local co-op. Can't get that in your Final Fantasy now can you?

Churbles 3

Ok I hear some of you out there saying "yeah that all sounds great but I'll believe it when I see it." Ok here's the trailer.

{youtube}K6oswsUhHyA{/youtube}

There now you should be fully convinced of the awesomeness of this project. So go visit their Kickstarter and throw some money at this to help it become a reality. I just pledged $15 myself. They also have a PayPal option for those who don’t have an Amazon account. While you're setting up your payment you can also follow the game on Twitter and Facebook, and while you're on those sites anyways you can also follow Gaming Furever on Twitter and Facebook if you're not already.

Ladies and gentlefarps! We have come to episode 95!

AHHHH!!! Real Furries

Kyo could not be present due to being stuck filling out health insurance forms for all the hookers he stabbed. In his place, we have a guest on the show by the name of Anaktis! He tells us about the old-school radio shows he entertains himself with. Halfwit tells us of a really cool organization trying to make Lovecraftian films in the style and technique of film-making available during eras past! Neat! Isty provides us details on his adventures in healthcare.gov and the progress of his eye. Smokey pops in next with a brief discussion of Cartoon Hangover and their various shows, including a new show called “Bee and Puppycat” (which is amazing, go watch it… go watch it now, even if you’ve watched it already, go watch it again). There is a kickstarter up for the team to make this show into a series. Go give them money if you can!

Emails come next and there are seven of them.

Legionbunny starts up with his definition of fear and the only team he was truly afraid (and honestly, we’d be pretty terrified in that situation ourselves!). Sketchy Genet is next, sorry man, Kyo wasn’t here to cry over this again! Darn fox! Stratosfear Tully writes in and opens up a bit about his fears. We feel your pain. It’s never fun living with that kind of trouble. Dox returns, provides a summery for those who might need the backstory, then provides an update. Hope you can push on through the issues dealing with your mom, man. He has a few topis he discusses after that and they’re nice and varied.

Legionbunny pops back in real quick to tell us of his first adventure in pride parades! Do whatever makes ya happy! Hope you keep having fun with those! Jay Ventus is next and runs down a list of things most people are scare of and applies them to himself. Finally, Umbra sneaks in at the last possible minute (gotta get these in sooner, can’t always catch them there at the end!) and tell us of a spoooookey story with a friend of his!

Our next show will be about learning. What helps you learn better? Do you have thoughts on the methods used in schools? Have you had an accidental moment of learning you didn’t expect? Any form of learning is acceptable! And of course, you don’t have to be on topic to write in. Just write in!
