Service for the Temple of the Forest will begin at 9PM EST Tonight! Hope to see you there!

I've noticed that midnight is a bit late for people! I will be having the service tonight at 9 PM EST. That's in approximately 1 hour from this post. Service will start promptly at the hour, so try to get there a little early and hang around!
I'm very happy; just got the grey pelt, so I can look my age! (Old.)
I've also grown quite fond of the long mask. I think it's appropriate!

Services are simple. I do an action, you repeat.
We meet in the cathedral-y part of the Ruins. The part within the semi circle of stones. Following the service there will be dancies and then a trip over to the trees for some mask and antler fun!

I might update this later with some descriptions for what the actions mean.

I'm back in the forest! I'm old, I'm clunky, and I'm mostly confused, but I'll be at the Ruins giving some "Sermons."

It's been a while.
I couldn't take it anymore.
I couldn't take not being in the forest. I love the forest.
But I've been on a mac for... For well over two years.
And as we know, macs and TEF don't go together well.

Before I switched to the dark side, I liked to do this thing where I'd go and stand on the platform in the Ruins, and conduct some sort of Sermon Ritual thing.
I planned to do it every night at midnight, EST.
It would go something like this:
I'd start promptly at midnight. I'd bow. Everyone would bow back.
For the next 5-10 minutes, or until people seemed like they were getting bored, I'd go through a variety of actions, hoping people would mirror them.
Usually, they did. It was fun having a group of 6 or so deer doing the same actions in response to me.
After the sermon was over, I'd run off to a tree, and we'd all cast spells on each other.

This only lasted a few sessions before my father got sick and I had no time.
By the time I had time for TEF again, I was on a mac.

But!
Today, I went on a rampage. After several program downloads, a lot of fiddling, and some frustration, I managed to get TEF running on my mac, on the mac side.
It's clunky as all hell. (2 FPS)
But it works.

So I'll be at the Ruins, on my platform, tonight at 12AM EST. That's in a little over an hour.

I hope to see some of you there. Smiling

A Desperate Plea for TeF Music

I love TEF. I've been playing it for ages.
The music has always been soothing to me, and I used to keep the window open and lay down just so I could hear the music play in the background. I did homework with it playing. I meditated to it. Fell asleep to it.

But I recently switched to a mac. As we all know, TEF doesn't work on macs. It works in Bootcamp, though! But I'm always on the mac side, doing homework, etc.

I had an idea! Using an audio cable, I could connect the mic jack to the speaker jack and record an hour's worth of the wonderful music just for me to put on my ipod to play in my room while I was meditating or studying or whatever! I'd done it before, using a cable to record from speaker to mic. So I went out and bought a cable and went to work trying to record.

But alas, line in recording isn't supported for Boot Camp on a mac. So now, here I am, stuck.

I'm wondering if there's anyone out there who is willing to record about an hour's worth of the music (No sound effects, a tiny bit of ambient sound) and put it into an mp3 file for me. I promise, I won't be using it for anything else except my own personal listening, and I won't distribute it to anyone. The music from TEF invokes good emotions and feelings in me, and brings back happy memories from when I first started playing TEF.

I'm willing to show whoever is interested in doing this how to use a program to do it and whatnot.

Michael, if you're not OK with this, I understand, and I won't pursue it any longer.

Thank you in advance.
