My 2026 goal setting process looked a bit different this year. I identified a life category with the most significant potential impact on 2026, narrowed down to just two goals within that category using NICE and SMART frameworks, anticipated failure points, then defined my weekly goal retrospective format: https://lostletters.neocities.org/2025/11/28/2026-goals professional habits die hard, I fear

Hi Lost! I added your button a couple days back. Took me a while to tell you, because I didn't know how to contact you at first. ^^ I enjoyed checking out the Afternoon Tea club and learning about the Quilting Bee club. I'm even considering doing my own old web cyberpet rescue now! Here's my site, it's still rough looking, but just pick the spinning star and scroll down:https://vitanivirusandlds.neocities.org/

I'm surprised how low Dragonbane ranked; I quite liked its creativity and its system. It looks like the module of the tournament ruined it for you, is this the reason for the low score or do you actually not like the system at all? (which is also fine dw, I'm not going to defend the system or anything ^^)

Oh also, thanks for the links to the 3-column layout! My site may just receive a responsive overhaul one of these days..!

Yes, I think the tournament style kind of ruined the experience for me. I don't remember hating the mechanics or anything, so I should probably give it a second try!

Hello! Apologies if I'm being a bother – feel free to respond only when you're back from hiatus – but I've been reading through your site and have two questions about the old web. I'll reply to myself with them. Thanks in advance!

1. Some of the material regarding the Quilting Bee, as well as some old patches I've seen mention "trading". It's my understanding than in pixel clubs nowadays, you're free to grab whatever you want, and trading is more of a two-way courtesy. Was this different in the Bee? Were there any trading "rules"?

2. In your Links page, you mention TCGs you played using something called "eTCG". I've already found my way to the Colors TCG, so my question is: were/are there any others?

lostletters's avatar lostletters 2 months ago

With trading, folks were encouraged to share about themselves when requesting a trade with another bee. Typically, it was handled by a web form or an email. You couldn't take the patch until the bee you want to trade with responded to your trade request, so it was very different from current pixel clubs where anyone can take anyone else's creation anytime.

there used to be tons back in the day with various themes etc. some where around a specific fandom or celebrities, others were food or everything TCGs. People spent a lot of time sourcing images and making eTCGs

Thank you for the answers, my curiosity has been sated :)

Hi, I'm letting you know that I've linked to you on my website :). I quite like some of the resources you have, I'm generally a fan of websites featuring their owners' interests and creations, and it's overall just nice and well made. I don't expect you to link back (my website doesn't even have graphics yet), but if you'd like to, it'd of course be more than welcome. Site here: https://vtipoman.neocities.org/

If you didn’t read my last blog entry, I’ve been lacking a creative passion for quite some time, and I finally decided this past week that I’m no longer going to be passive about it. Since it has been almost a week since I started gently tending to my creative pursuits again, I wanted to write up a brief progress update as a commitment to the practice.
