It's back. Here's the 2016 topic, for those who might be interested.
Real Life Stuff I Did
MFGG/Online Stuff I Did
Stuff I Didn't Do
How was your 2017? Was it a year of achievement and awesomeness, or was it a bit more challenging?
Real Life Stuff I Did
- Finished a bunch of grad school team projects without strangling anybody
- Successfully delivered two presentations about programming at two different events
- Earned a Software Development Fundamentals MTA certification because why not (it's very entry-level and possibly redundant, but it was also free)
- Finished my master's degree
- Left my graduate assistant position because I finished grad school
- Successfully survived a hurricane (and a solar eclipse!)
- Had a few job interviews, but still haven't found my dream job yet
- Met another model, because I have to meet one of those every year
MFGG/Online Stuff I Did
- Updated Cheerwine Deluxe 3 so the online high scores system works again
- Made Satilla Composite for a Minigame Competition (I won't post the link to the demo, since the full version is close to being done)
- Did a little bit with Career Fantasy
- Had fun using data analytics tools (mostly MySQL, Excel, and Tableau) to analyze how MFGG activity levels have fluctuated over time
- Made a corny Majora's Mask-themed skin, a countdown timer, and a music player to commemorate the end of the phpBB forums
- Installed and launched a new MyBB-based forum system
- Made a Twitter page full of zany spambot quotes
- Tried to keep my old video game FAQs up-to-date
Stuff I Didn't Do
- Compose music
- Try drawing more
- Find anything faintly resembling romance
