New Toy - ASUS Matrix Radeon HD 7970 Platinum

It has been quite a few weeks since I last posted something. It's just that I got a new job and I haven't had enough time to enjoy gaming properly. I do like my new job though.  ^_^

Since I worked so hard in the past few weeks, I decided to reward myself a good video card. Here's some info about the card I bought - ASUS Matrix Radeon HD 7970 Platinum. I tested it on League of Legend, and Dwarf Fortress, both games ran really smoothly compared to my old-randomly-shut-my-PC-down-card.

It started to get really warm in Sydney these days. It's funny to say but the weather effects my gaming experience. Whenever I played League of Legend, my computer would crash whenever there was a group fight. Also it was sad that Dwarf Fortress would become really really slow. FPS was too low for me to enjoy the game. :*( I don't have this issue anymore now though. :D :D :D




I know the games I play don't require a video card like this, but hey, it makes me happy when I think about it. xD That's what matters right? :p

Hope everyone is having a good holiday time. Merry Christmas.

Happy Enna Blog Theme Change

Happy Enna has a new look now. I hope it is easier to read.

I prefer a lighter background than darker ones. The thing with a dark background is, the text lines stay in the vision for a minute or so when I look away. It dazes me sometimes.

It looks like the mobile phone version for the blog is staying the same though.

Thank you for visiting Happy Enna. Thanks for the comments. Some people e-mail me and I am always so happy when I receive them.  :)

Please feel free to add me to your google circle too.  ^_^

Happy gaming!

Minespot Server Down

I haven't posted anything about my Minecraft Life for a bit, because the server I play on went offline for a few days without a warning.

The night before the server went offline, Mr_Kabapu and I spent a few good hours selling items to get wowenna to reach $1,000,000. Thanks a lot to Mr_Kabapu. He helped me farming and selling.

I wish the owner of the server at least said something about it when he decided to take the server down. But I guess that's just life. Maybe things came up and he got busy.

I picked up my Settlers 7 to play since I didn't quite finish it last time before I got distracted into another game. What should I do though after I finish Settlers 7? I have a few options:

1. World of Warcraft
2. Diablo 3
3. Minecraft on another server
4. League of Legend

I am thinking maybe I should pick option 2. I haven't killed Diablo, not even on the normal mode.

There's always Anime to watch, books to read, housework to do, or maybe, Kairosoft games to play.  :D

My First Cafe Nippon Game

I am not the type to read about it before I play. So I started the game without knowing anything. The assistant in the game was good enough explaining all the basics.

Money was an issue. It went red almost every time after the staff got paid. We then had to skip all the 4M Ingredient Search, sometimes the whole year, which was a little upsetting. We decided to stop spending after 10M until the staff got paid next year. That seemed to work out alright in the end.

I was picky with hiring at the start. I'd pick the person with best stats out of the three. I sometimes hire them by their looks, ( shhh ), or their names. Only learned later that you end up having to hire them all anyway. I tried negotiating with those special traveling chefs. Gordy Ramsly was easy going, but Alton Green was such a snub. I spent all my cash throwing lots of gifts to Alton Green but in the end he still gave me a No. I then decided not to hire more of those special chefs in my first game.

Time went by so slowly. I couldn't change the game speed to Fast since it was my first game.

I made sure I had rank 1 in all five towns before the game ended. However I was surprised to receive a Bronze Trophy when the game ends at 16Y4M. I thought I did better.

That's pretty much what happened in my first play through. I made lots of mistakes. I wondered where to find Shark the whole game that's why I wrote about it in one of my posts earlier. ( read it here )

Things I've done right in my first game

• Developed Chicken Bowl as much as I could - so the next game I can have a delicious Chicken Bowl to serve
• Managed to save up later in the game - After paying the staff the numbers always went red, so I decided to limit my spending after 10M, it worked out alright in the end.

Gosh, I can't think of any other things I've done right in my first game. -.-

Things I shouldn't have done in my first game

• Running expansive Plans starting of the year, which resulted not being able to go Ingredient Search in 4M, sometimes the whole year It was bad. :(
• Tried hiring special staff without saving the game first - I failed one and spent all the money
•  Serving many Dishes in stores - each Dish listed would add up to the monthly cost, serving one Dish per Store is ideal

I have a few things in mind to post in the near future :

1. A list of Tables and Decorations ( done! read it Here 8 June 2012)
2. How to Rank Up your restaurants ( done, too! read it Here 8 June 2012 )
3. What I'd like to achieve in Cafe Nippon ( still thinking 8 June 2012 )
4. Improve some of the Tables I've already posted ( done a few, working on it 8 June 2012 )

I'm pretty sure I am still missing some here. But that's all I can think of for now.
