The CYOA will be late again!

At this Rate I need to rename it CYOA Thursdays!! Sorry guys, I lost track of time today doing chores not the least of which was laundry so I could have clean uniforms for work tonight! ( I am back to doing over night Security ) and now it is bed time so I don't fall asleep at my post! Luckly I have the time to write at work as the place is a bit of a ghost town most of the night and I bring my Macbook with me so the post will be taken care of this evening. Once again sorry for the delay.

Happy Veterans Day

With it being Veterans Day here in the United States I wanted to take a step up onto the Soap box that this site provides me to thank all the Veterans out there, not Just here in the USA but to all the soldiers around the world regardless of nationality who put their lives at risk to protect and preserve freedom!

Thank You All, You are all the true Superheroes!

Anime Talk: Terminology

In this addition of Anime Talk I want to go over some terms used in regard to Anime/Manga and its community that you may or may not be familiar with. In the future my reviews may be incorporating some of these terms and I wanted a point of reference for you all to be able to look at in you don't know the term already.

So Lets beg!

Anime Talk: Invitation

Let me start off that I plan on writing a couple anime talks over the next couple weeks, as I have been on a bit of an anime binge of late, that being said I would like to invite you the anime fans of our community to write for heromachine also. If there is any anime topic that I have not covered that you wish to talk about please send me email at Kaldath@HeroMachine.com. We can discuss what you want to talk about and if I find it reasonable you can either write up an article about the topic which I will then post for you, or If you don't feel like writing it I myself may ( or may not ) take a crack at the topic.

 

I ask this of you all in hopes of providing more content for the HeroMachine community at large. I would like to write more articles but can not always think of something to write about, and even when I ask for suggestion I do not always feel qualified to write about the things being suggested to me, so that is why I thought of asking for some guess writers from the community. SO anyone that feels like stepping up please feel free to contact me.

CYOA Wednesday: Channel U – Part 2

Channel U

Well Folks It is time again for our Chose Your Own Adventure Wednesday ( if a bit late ). To Recap so far the main protagonist of our story was sitting in front of an experiment Television created by his fathers company when he discovered a special channel on the set that caused him to be sucked into the land of tv by a doppelganger of himself, Our protagonist's twin told us that we had to pick a genre of tv show to participate in and if we solved or defeated the situation present there in we he would be set free. That was where we came in! I asked you to vote on which genre we would follow and you all choose Sci-fi so lets kick this off again.

 

The story continues after the Jump.

Delay of CYOA Wednesday

Hey Folks, I regret to report that there may be a delay in the New CYOA Wednesday post. I wrote and published the post but it seems to have disappeared instead of going live. I am going to wait and see if there is a glitch and it reappears if not I will write it again later this evening.

CYOA Wednesday: Channel U – 1

Channel U

Some years ago Jeff ran a series of Choose Your Own Adventure books mostly the Lone Wolf Series, letting the community decided which options in the story we all would take together. Well I am going to bring that back. I browsed through the kindle store on Amazon and found this book here to start things off.

I present to you : CHANNEL U

Kaldath’s Caption Contest #74: Results

Well After a weeks extension on the latest Caption contest The total number of entries did not change so I will not be doing a top five and instead will just be naming our winner which is _____________________

Spiderman 2

This is going to be the last caption contest I hold for a while and I would like to take this time to thank everyone who participated in any of the Caption contest I have held. Next week I will figure out something to post to take the place of the caption contest and see how things go from there.

Kaldath’s Caption Contest 74 – Extended / Possibly the last Caption Contest

I will be extending last weeks caption contest by one week, meaning you have until next Tuesday at 5pm Eastern time to enter. The reason for this is because the turn out for the contest was rather low.

Which brings me to the second part of this Topic. Because of apparent waning interest in the contest of late I am considering shutting it down, if not for good at least for a good looooooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnggggg break.  I will think of some other content to replace it with but at this point the effort I put in to searching for pictures or Gifs to put up for the contest doesn't feel like it is worth it for the interest it seems to be generating. For that reason I think it may be time for a change.  Feel Free to leave suggestion below on what you would like to see me replace the caption contests with.
