Aplems Music Compilation

Aplems music compilation is a unique mix of several songs played on the piano that I have created myself.
Constantly updating with new songs and new tutorials you will be entertained for several hours (over time hehe).

Songs

List of songs in order created

Sparkling River - Song #1
"Sparkling River" is a song consisting of a unique 3 note progression on the left hand that makes it seem like a flowing river and on the right hand brings it to sound almost like a sparkle. Enjoy.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qw50E1P_rSQ&feature=related

Catch Me In The Rain - Song #2
"Catch Me In The Rain" is a song that is fast paced and enjoyable. Chords on the LHand make it seem like it is a stormy night or rain, notes on the RHand make it seem fast almost like running.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VkKdv29qTcI&feature=related

In The River Of Tears - Song #3
"In The River of Tears" is a song consisting of emotional piercing chords that can sometimes drift you away from most. This song would be somewhat to listen to when down and need something calm.

You are very very very very very very welcome my mate' (I am not austrailian) I will not tell my region

Just, what the hell.

Inside the "What do you try not to do in Blockland, but accidently do it anyway" thread in General Discussion he made a double post, I told him he should of kept it all in one post because it makes him look dumb double posting 2 really small things. He responded several posts later with "..."

His emote spam is horrible and not to mention how he rates all these builds on gallery with eye-raping colors so you can hardly even read them. Also his random color changing is really bad all the same.

--------------------------------

I honestly make hardly any drama topics but when it comes down to people like this it just get to my nerves.

Radioactive Rabbit Trapped At Hanford Nuclear Reservation In Washington, Workers Search For Contaminated Droppings

RICHLAND, Wash. — A radioactive rabbit was trapped on the Hanford nuclear reservation, and Washington state health workers have been searching for contaminated rabbit droppings.The regional director of the Office of Radiation Protection, Earl Fordham, said Thursday that no contaminated droppings have been found in areas accessible to the public.The Tri-City Herald reports that officials suspect the rabbit sipped some water left from the recent demolition of a Cold War-era building used in the production of nuclear weapons.The rabbit was trapped in the past week and was highly contaminated with radioactive cesium. It was killed and disposed of as radioactive waste.

Find original story here at huffingtonpost.com : http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/11/05/radioactive-rabbit-trappe_n_779513.html

----------------------------

Like, holy crap. I do remember when I was back in Italy (ninth grade) how I learned about the American bombs that were tested. I was just recently at Christmas time with my Uncle in Washington state near Hanford. This was apparently the place where the Americans played with their Uranium and tested out really dangerous stuff.

I am starting to wonder if I will become infected because of radiation there. (<<Just kidding)

Discuss radioactive animals that actually could kill several people if they came into contact with mortal humans.

Off Topic / My Nonno Died Today

« on: January 27, 2012, 12:27:42 PM »

So today on January 27th at 3:00am my Nonno (Grandpa) died from a disease known as Pneumonia. A fact is that 5 years ago on this same day, my Nonna (Grandma) died also. The nurse told us what happened -

"The only part of his body he could move was his left leg. We had to do hourly checks on him and today when I went in I turned on the light and he leaned up and looked at me,  took a big breath and laid back down with a sigh. After that he was gone, almost as if he was ready to be taken."

He has had this disease for some time and he was not that happy that all he could do was lay in his bed and not move. He was only 80 years old.

Rest in peace, Nonno.

Off Topic / My whole college is playing infection.

« on: January 26, 2012, 04:21:25 PM »

So it is apparent that someone who was playing L4D2:Mutation decided to play it in real life. Not so much as biting people but more so just a big ass game of tag infection. Which is also apparent you can not leave the infection game he started.

For those of you who don't know what infection is, it is 1 person who starts as the "infected" or the "out-breaker" who then goes around and tags/punches/licks someone and then the person who they got is now also infected. It is almost like a last man standing.

It is quite weird but also quite fun, a new round starts everyday. Whenever there is time between classes or after all the classes end and we all retire to our dorms the infection continues.

Post your thoughts on these tag spoofs that older people play.

Drama / RaR : Just joined and already making a very bad impression.

« on: January 19, 2012, 10:31:24 PM »

Lets start off with his recent posts : http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?action=profile;u=42688;sa=showPosts;start=0

He just joined today which also explains a-lot.

Not to mention his 4 pointless topics he made within this time being :
http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=182687.0
http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=182691.0
http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=182693.0
http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=182648.0

Lets not also forget all the above topics are in the completely wrong section.

RaR I would like to suggest to you reading the rules on each board and learning what to post in what area. Such as your Drama topic accident (more or less so an accident) that you should not just make 4 words drama topics that in all reality show no information whatsoever or have already been made before in a more fashionable matter.

Off Topic / Rumors 1 : A bill supporting SOPA.

« on: January 19, 2012, 03:28:15 PM »

A bill passed last year would make it against the law to "transmit in interstate or foreign commerce any communication, with the intent to coerce, intimidate, harass, or cause substantial emotional distress to a person, using electronic means to support severe, repeated, and hostile behavior." Anyone found guilty of this crime could face a fine or a prison term of up to two years.

Rumors between friends of mine, my professors and several other people around say this is some how holding up the SOPA act. Apparently if this bill is still up than the SOPA act is stable in every way possible.

Discuss?

Clan Discussion / [P] PLUS - Shut down. Forever.

« on: January 10, 2012, 08:53:43 PM »

Logo by Rusty

What is Plus? Plus is a clan developed by yours truly Aplem. What we plan to accomplish are to make several builds not just for a build but for people to play on! That is why we have the scripting and modeling division to bring forth new things so others can enjoy them and of course enjoy the clans work abilities. We want to try to focus on stretching our abilities and see what we are truly made of!

So you want to join in the fun? Well Plus offers several fields which are amongst Building, Eventing, Scripting and Modeling. When you are done with your application you can post it inside gallery (builder + eventer) with a name like : "[P] Application - appnamehere" <-- That mainly helps with organization and easy finds.

Applications will be accepted by clan administrators and you will receive some sort of criticism either good or bad. We try not to make it harsh c:

We appreciate anything from anybody just as long as it fulfills the following requirements for each field :


Builder You need to have a : Build with at least 1200 bricks, shape other than a square with a couple windows and using more than 3 colors. We very widely encourage you to try out new designs and to try out something different.

Eventer You need to make a/some evented brick/s : Using advanced events (preferably VCE) and the brick must have 12 or more events all together. It must be used to make something unique to the game and it has to be something that is not so commonly used such as a store or simple bots.

Modeler You need to make a : Model with a blocky design and that is not completely square but does consist of some circular areas. The model must be presented as screenshots and must have more than 3 colors. Make anything you want a sword, gun, brick etc. Present this as a video/picture or a release of the add-on inside a post in the clan topic.

Scripter You need to make a : Script useful to Blockland in some way and it needs to be able to work in-game. Present this as a video or a release of the add-on inside a post in the clan topic. (Kind of loose)

Video Maker You need to make a video that : shows skills in video editing, easy to follow and must be at least 1 minute long of actual video.

Whatever you apply with are what will go next to your name under Members section. To have two  different things you are applying for you must show skills in each of those things.

Clan tags - Your tags will follow this design - [P] namehere (For example, [P] Aplem)

/!\If you see someone wearing [P] clan tags and are not part of the clan, report it to admins and if they are on a server than kick them/!\

Rules - Rules of the clan are vital even though it should not be that hard to remember.

- Use your common sense
- Do not annoy others
- Do not spam
- Do not start flame wars with other clans

Any leader/admin of the clan has the right to kick your out of the clan after 3 warnings via PM.

Server Hosting - We encourage clan members to host servers, and if you want to have your server posted on the clan topic than just say inside a comment.

What to try and get in the server :

- A well balanced idea that many will enjoy.
- Organized.
- Not an overload of add-ons so it takes people 20 minutes to load.

In no way am I trying to tell you how or not how to make a server but just some ideas.

Here is a list of our current members and their rank.

Code : B = Builder, E = Eventer, M = Modeler, S = Scripter, VM = Video Maker

So what are you waiting for? Invite your friends, get your clan, bring whoever you want to bring and come in to Aplems - Desert Cliff TDM/CTF!

Drama / aboyyellow7 - Obviously autistic, 8 year old who shouldn't be on the internet.

« on: January 06, 2012, 10:55:02 PM »

First off just take a look at this : http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=181453.0

It is quite obvious after being told several times he still continued to do so.

Here are some of his posts :

my bro had autism

Just, yeah irony to what I said.

HI

Randomly posted that apparently at nobody.

code is easy its one of the effects

Code: [Select]

CODENESS!

Doesn't know what he is talking about...

Just, what the forget.

i hate  but i love  's  's ar ok  is yummy  who know wht those are

I believe, that kind of broke his whole idea of... emotes.

Not like that is any more out of the ordinary than most 4 8 year olds.

He is sadly and constantly failing at grammar, using color coded text everywhere and thinks he is apparently entrepreneur  because he made a topic about BLOCKLAND ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!.

For the best of the best, here are his recent posts : http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?action=profile;u=42196;sa=showPosts

He happened to ask what did who and who mean by disabilities, which makes his current position even worse.

TL;DR, aboyyellow7 = gigantic handicap.
