Balloon Party

I know I'm late at posting this but these are the photos from the balloon party a few days ago

Click the images for enlargement and better quality view~

If I wasn't late to the party, maybe I would have join those two at the bottom

Our wonderful room host, <MissLindaK> 

Sorry Hieroglyph, it was too lag to click "Use", resulting in your exotic face getting blocked by it 



The spirits of partying and dancing certainly lies within Mr.Semaphore and Chayannie!

Chayannie's cosplay kept the party going even after the majority has left. Her Elvis was definitely one of them 

I'm sorry that there are no name lists of those who attend. Many have already left by the time of my late arrival 

I'm still deciding whenever I should make this current look permanent... 
Sorry for any disappointments  
Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate it!

 Happy 100th Post! 
Thank you all readers for giving me the motivation as well as inspiration to write~

One Month Prior

One month away till we all bid our farewell! How are you all spending your remaining times on Pico? Ranting , giving out contact information, or too disappointed to even play anymore? Most of the familiar faces have already disappeared along with time...

You wouldn't believe who I unexpectedly encountered a few days ago
It was yet another day in the empty Japanese Park until she trotted down beside me and silently bowed.

Hurr hurr. Meet ❤NaNa ❤, my long lost twinand just when I thought I've seen it all in Pico..
I then confirmed that we are indeed one drop of water when she remains next to me for two whole minutes while haven't spoken a single word. I usually do the honor of being the dead silent one, you see.



Have you been to NYC Downtown recently? You won't be able to miss the additional decoration!

It's about the same as our petitions, just maybe... a more direct and different way. Since the game is ending anyhow, let's hack all we can, right? Haha no.


Do you have a massive amount of pocket items in Pico such as balloons and firecrackers?
Hieroglyph, a friend of mine, is hosting a balloon party to make use of them in a rather fun way

The party will be... OR you can read more here to find the full information you need.
I'll be there, and I definitely would be overjoy to see you there too!

Adieu, Ameba Pico..?

Pico has announced its final day, December 17, 2012. This a lot sooner than I expect for this virtual game to close its doors. On the day Pico announced this, several petitions were instantly created. The determination to keep Pico open is good, yes. But as for whenever they would make a difference, I'm not so sure. 
The CyberAgents has already reach their conclusion to end Ameba Pico two years after creating it. It seems to me that the chance that they would take our petitions into consideration are quite slim.
Following up from my previous post, a much better chance to voice your opinions is through Norishige Nagase, the operating officer and general manager of Ameba. Send him messages about your feelings regarding this matter. If many Pico players are willing to cooperate and do this, I have high hopes that they won't just overpass it. 

Now, I know that these past few months Ameba Pico has been an asshole to all of us. Hardly anything they released deserve a compliment. Despite that, what made the game tolerable was the social life I have on there, and I'm positive that I'm not the only one who feel this way. All the friends I've made, all around the world. To think that there are people, each from so many different parts of the world, yet we made a connection, share interests, and became friend through this small virtual game. 
So please, do whatever you can to keep this game going At least for now..
