    I'm sure they'd understand if you told them sorry. I mean, it's not like they could tell someone was going to trip over it before it happened! D:

    @@Gekoncze It really serves as inspiration for myself as well. Sure, I'm a little jelly from everyone's interesting stories, but it's a good kind of jelly! I feel like I can really do this, like it's truly possible for me to accomplish this kind of thing, even if it takes a long time.

    Is this the only pack that Photo Finish pocket pony comes in? http://www.amazon.com/My-Little-Pony-Friendship-Friends/dp/B009NXTMSQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1349990637&sr=8-1&keywords=my+little+pony+famous+friends+set

      I guess I shouldn't be complaining... it comes with Hoity Toity AND Rarity, but the fabulous-ness of Photo Finish is what would sell it for me.

    My family and I have two medium-sized gardens - one "sunny" garden and another "shady" one - that we converted from a regular grassy back yard. Although I'm not too involved in the planting process myself, I know that we grow plants like eggplant, tomatoes, peppers, green beans, onions, garlic and a few varieties of herbs. I think we grew corn stalks one year, too! It's pretty awesome, though, seeing how much food we've grown over the summer.

    And if you think he has bad taste in music or games, you could dump him! Really though, I'd rather have a date where I can find out if we can have fun together and enjoy each other's company than something that's only romantic.

    My little sister knew a girl with a name pronounced Le-dash-uh. I think it was literally spelt "Le-a" or "Le-uh"... something with a hyphen in its spelling.. The name Shaniqua always comes to my mind with these kind of topics. Some stereotypical, over-the-top racial name (I honestly just don't like this name, no offense to anyone who has it!). And then there are the OMGUUD SO UNIKE kind of names, where a single name can be spelt 10 different ways with some letters replaced with others to create the same sound. It can get pretty rediculous. I don't think I've heard of a boy named August, or a girl named Cadenza (I'd squee because ponies ), or anyone named Lucifer (the name's suppossed meaning, "bringing/carrier of light" is beautiful, but the connotations with it would only be negative... just nickname her Luci for short..). Oh, and girls named Crystal or Krystal, or Serena or Arenes.... sigh. Just name 'em Rarity or Twilight!

    My first three years of highschool, I was the strange kid who'd keep to himself all day, like I wanted to be invisible or something. I would ignore and avoid saying hello to the students I sat next to because of how painfully shy and awkward I felt around everyone. I wasn't much better my senior year, and I pretty much spent my entire highschool life without making any friends. In college, I wasn't quite as bad. I would keep to myself, but if I needed to collaborate with other students, I could do so easily. I still didn't make any friends, though. because I was the wierd guy who ate lunch by himself every day Yeah, so I've never really been outgoing or social, but I've always been polite and formal, which probably further gave the impression that I didn't want to make friends. However, I've been slowly growing out of this over the last several years, so there's hope for me yet (and I've been told I smile a lot ).

    I'm noticing that the more I think to my tulpa, the more often I catch myself almost saying her name aloud when I meant to say some other name (like calling one of my dogs). Maybe the idea of having a tulpa to think or talk to is slowly rooting itself into my brain?

    I'm just curious.. Anyone notice RD's right eye on the site's banner?

      Her right eye is missing the white portion. You can see the background where the white of her eye should be!

    I don't have a problem with people who use one of those words to describe themselves; it can help one identify their preferences more closely and better understand themselves. However, the use of those words to glorify one's social position - like a homosexual having "gay pride" - russles my jimmies. It's as if the fact that such preferences aren't "normal" make it better or more acceptable to be proud of. I don't think you're trying to argue about such a topic, though. In response to your seventh paragraph, straight people have sex for pleasure, too, it's just that there's the chance of having a baby, which is countered by several types of birth control. If you only have sex with those of the same sex, what else can you gain from it besides enjoyment? I'm not going to guess what homosexuality means for a gay person, however, because I'm not gay myself. In my opinion, sex is the reason for our physical existence, because it's needed for our species to continue existing. I don't think everyone has to be bound by it, though.

    I realize that they can look however you'd like; I think I'm having a difficult time trying to imagine a 2D object in a 3D environment, one that you should be able to view from every angle despite it keeping its flat shape. I should probably stop confusing myself and just do whatever comes naturally when the time comes to finalize my tulpa's form. That, and get some sleep before I start debating whether that rhyme was intentional or not.

    For all the lovely people here who have reached the point of imposition and have a pony/cartoon-like tulpa, how might one view them imposed on the environment? Would the tulpa look like a flat 2D image with a shadow (like some of the pony-in-real-life pictures that have been made), or like a cel-shaded 3D image (like this http://gamingnewsdai...-characters.jpg)? And is it difficult to accustom oneself to the surreal, mismatched appearance of such a tulpa? I'm sure this can all be sorted out with enough time, patience and effort, but it really makes me curious to know!
  15. StingeMuffin
    Does anyone randomly sing or hum a tune to their tulpa? If I find myself short on things to think to her about, I'll start making up random songs in my head... Although I'm not really sure how much she'd be taking in since it's so early for me, but I couldn't see how it'd hurt. I mean, my voice sounds pretty good in my head.

    Wow, those are a lot of traits! I was only able to come up with 15 or so, and even then, I can hardly last 3 minutes on a single one. Needless to say I've reviewed those traits several times already, but whether reviewing the same information time and time again helps or not, I don't really know. I'll be extremely happy if she has some of the characteristics I wanted her to have, but all the same, I'll accept her just as much for what she becomes. I can't quote anyone at the moment, but from what I understand, it can be done a few ways, mostly symbolically. I think FAQ man's guide at tulpa.info said something along the lines of visualizing your tulpa walking through a door to you, like you're letting him/her through the door into your memories. I think I've read others symbolizing their memories as a library/ video compilation room. I think it's mostly about you letting your tulpa access them and accepting that they know everything you've done, whether you personally regret those memories or not. Again, don't take my exact word! This is just what I think about this topic from the information I've gathered, and I know I still have so much to learn..

    I've been wondering lately about when to entrust all of my memories and thoughts to my tulpa. Seeing that I'm still in the very early stages - about 10 hours total between straight personality focusing/narrating - when would be the best time to let my tulpa access my memories? Or do they already have access to them, unless I consciously refuse them access? I still imagined my tulpa having access to a dictionary of some kind containing all of the words I know. I'm probably just worrying and confusing myself over silly details that would naturally sort themselves out, but I wanted to know what some of you guys thought. I've already imagined some cool environments for my tulpa and I to explore in the future, like riding chopper bikes down a long, rolling country road during sunset that leads to a nighttime forest/pool-like area from the Final Fantasy 7 movie... kind of silly, but it just appeared in my mind one night while I was trying to sleep.

    It's really interesting to read how everyones' tulpas are developing. It makes me feel motivated to keep working with mine. We've been making sure to focus everyday on her personality, but the longest I've been able to do so is about 35 minutes; anything longer than that and I start feeling like my legs are going to flip out, like my body has to move! My only concern is that we aren't fleshing her personality out enough, elaborating on the different ways her personality affects her and such. But I always make sure to keep her on my mind and think to her throughout the day. If I feel like I can't introduce anything new regarding her personality, then we focus over the traits I've already established. It's like I'm thinking about the traits I've given her, only "harder." Lately, I've been feeling this constant "heaviness" on my mind, kind of like a feeling that there's something I can't shake off or let go of despite any relaxing. However, this seems to be independent of any pressures I've felt. Maybe it's thinking of her constantly that has given me this feeling? I think I have between 5-10 hours of straight focusing, so I'm still in the baby-crawl stage of this. I'm just going about this tulpa business one day at a time.

    I haven't dreamed about ponies since I started watching it +1.5 years ago, and while having them increasingly on my mind, so don't feel bad! In my opinion, it doesn't matter (much ) that I haven't dreamt about ponies, because they've brought me so much happiness while I'm awake, when I really need that extra dose of positive energy. I'm glad to read that MLP has helped you feel happy! Guess I should keep this message short 'causenowIreallywanttoresearchluciddreaming

    Isn't Snuggle Truck an indie game? It makes more sense that something like this would happen with a small indie game, especially one that features rainbow colored stuffed animals, than one that has to pass through a separate publisher. I'm pretty sure that a few other games have made parodies to MLP, but actually labeling it with the word "brony?" I'm not too sure about that.

    No offense at all! Your drawing is absolutely beautiful! Glad you like it! It makes everything worth the while to know I've made someone happy.

    I just finished a small drawing of your two OCs! Shooting star has finally built up the courage to talk to a cute mare he's seen from time to time, but Amber Vox can't let things go so smoothly. She's using her magic to say something embarrasing in Shooting Star's voice. The poor guy...

    Hope this song fits in the ambient category.. the bass is a little punchy, so I doubt you'd be falling asleep listening to this, but that isn't to say you can't forget about your worries and troubles for 5.5 minutes.

    Today I've started concentrating on the presence of my tulpa while I go about my day, trying my best to feel like she is right next to me (not necessarily in any form, though..). We also began reading a pretty lengthy novel together to, with me trying to focus on her presence as well as reading. I also *try* to narrate to her while playing videogames, but this is especially hard since I tend to lose focus! I've also been learning that it can be extremely hard for me to visualize when I'm physically tired, and even the smallest amount of light messes with the images I think of, making me see things that are somewhat disturbing to just plain trippy; forcing early in the day may prove to be a better option for me for now, but I'll start practicing concentration and focusing exercises as well. Today and yesterday, however, I've felt pleasently happy, which is especially odd for me considering it's a work day (I usually feel anxious to go to work). Anyway, these are some of my thoughts about what I've been doing lately! I'm not gonna give up on this.

    I actually think the desert clothes were pretty snazzy. I kind of wish I found more of them with the stats I wanted, at least until I find some engineer specific gear, but I've only found one shoulder piece. Lots of other class equipment has dropped for me though... And your squishy? Have you even invested a single point into vitality? XD Although I guess it wouldn't make much of a difference. The monsters seemed to have become much stronger from the latter half of act 2 and on, like if I don't dodge their attacks I die really fast. The beginning of act 3 owned me, but now that I have a solid strategy against the monsters, I stand a much better chance.
