Welp... the inevitable has happened.

I've started overanalyzing certain aspects of Cantr characters. It's not entirely on purpose.

I have the irrational fear that everyone can see what my character eats.

I do not have an eating problem. :cry:

You can use filters (button right of manufacture menu) to keep your character from lighting up from radio/eating/whispering etc.

Apparently some of the programming on Chrome surrounding my backspace and tab keys were messed up somehow. Whenever I backspace it acts like I pressed the browser's Back button instead, and Tab doesn't even recognize the large text boxes like this one and the one for talking on Cantr. It's really obnoxious.

I'm half-tempted to describe my next character's eyes as "Cantr green"

I almost used Cantr green in a clothing item yesterday, but I had to cut it out because it didn't fit in the box.

I figured out that the error is tied to one tab only. Not even the entire window of Chrome (which has eight tabs right now) - just this one tab.

I can't even right now. (Because I'm a teenage white girl. lol)

It isn't really an error if that is how they are operating. The backspace button is supposed to do that when not being used for text purposes (if you were inside a text box however, and it still was doing that, then that would be a problem) and the tab button will only work to scroll through the available text boxes if the web developer programmed the index for those boxes within the coding.

If it used to work and now all of a sudden doesn't, it could be a temp glitch in the browser, or it could be that they updated the site and messed something up.

That is exactly what happened, Cdls. Like, I'd be typing and make a mistake and immediately go to backspace it and it would go back in the browser even though I was still technically in the textbox. Most of the time when I went back to the page the text was saved in the box but it was still really irritating.
I still don't know why it did that, but there seemed to be multiple glitches going on with that tab. For example, Facebook didn't work on it either. I closed it and now I'm not having any more problems.

I sometimes have problems with one specific tab in Chrome as well. Just closing it and continuing in another window works fine :P

Bad ideas: going on a horror binge after not sleeping for 48+ hours....

-Pops open another tab, loads Murder of Angels playlist-

I wonder what I would do all day if I didn't play any games. Would I accomplish more or would I just be bored all the time?

Edit: I'm pissed about FTO.


Edit 2: Some days it feels like I keep playing Cantr because I don't know what I'd do with all the free time if I wasn't playing.
