It's good if you tell us WHERE this Wayshrine is.

That sounds good, but it's an MMO.
I'm not looking for an MMO.

I'd like to believe that we are not all nerdy, forum-game playing, video-game-only loving nerds who stay home all the time. We all have hobbies besides games, right?
One of my hobbies is weightlifting, and I just want to know if any of us here also weight lift. If so, well then, feel free to post stats and workout routines. Offer advice here and there, ask a question or two. So, who's with me?
As for me, I love to weightlift (hate running), and it really helps with football and wrestling. I'll go to the gym after practice every other day to add something to my workout that day.
So, without further ado, my stats.
Max Bench: 265 pounds
Max Squat: 330 pounds
Max Clean and Jerk: 180 pounds
Regular Routine (all weights include the bar):
Bench: Starting at 160 pounds, go into 3 sets of 5, moving up 10 pounds each set with abdominal work inbetween.
Squat: Starting at 180 pounds, go into 3 sets of 5, moving up 15 pounds each set with abdominal work inbetween.
Clean: Starting at 140 pounds, go into 3 sets of 5, moving up 5 pounds each set with abdominal work inbetween.
Standing Military Press: Starting at 15 pounds, go into 3 sets of 5, moving up 10 pounds each set. No abdominal work.
Bicep curls (dumbell): 30 pounds each hand, 8 sets of 5.
Bicep curls (barbell): 40 pounds, 5 sets of 3.
Arnold Press: 50 pounds, 5 sets of 5.
Shrugs: 80 pounds, until muscle failure.
EDIT:
I weigh 215 pounds at 6'0. I eat like a...something that eats a lot.
And increased my bench 10 pounds, but my squat and jerk have remained the same. Strange. But still feels good man.

Here are some that I've done in the past.

Hmmm, I notice that my sigs lack any sort of border similar to the ones here.
No matter, as I generally prefer a more simplistic look anyway.

Seems to me like you're over-doing it a bit.
Even if it IS a retreat for the Emperor, it's a retreat, not a mansion.
Also, some of the furniture placement seems questionable to me. Such as that shelf in one screen.
Other than that, it strikes me a lot that the place has no windows.
Moar windows.

I've had this idea going on in my head for a while now. I've found a couple of pirate mods, but they're really just, well...badly made. I've had an idea going on in my head that will change pirate mods forever, adding lots to the game with new quests, features, perks, etc. This large scale mod would probably include the following:
A ship that you can use to transport to Anvil, Bravil, Leyawiin, or the Imperial City Waterfront.
A new island for Pirates; a pirate town, similar to the one in The Pirate Isles mod.
More than one ship at a time. If you own a small fleet of 3 ships (which would differ in size), all three would follow you out on a mission.
Different ship sizes. Frigates, corsairs, dreadnoughts, etc.
Battles in ports and out at sea between the pirates, merchant ships and/or Imperial navy ships.
A couple of new islands to explore, with a chance to find new treasures, battle undead hordes, conduct a sting operation on a pirate hideout, or raid Imperial Navy ports and island/coastal towns. These islands would be pretty durn big, about 1/6 of the size of the Shivering Isles. They could contain several towns for exploring.
Or a single, BIG island can be used to contain all of these things. Each operation would merely take place on a different part of the island.
The option to fight AS a pirate, or AGAINST the pirates in the sea.
Working cannons. This is a completely optional thing, as I have no idea as to whether it could work or not. A simple spell could probably do it, as all it needs to do is send somebody flying unless they got a direct hit.
Short storyline establishing your making as a pirate or a naval officer. I'll be willing to write something for it, if you wish.
Now, for the finer details:
In the actual battles, you would start out on your own ship, unable to board the other ship. You would engage cannon fire (mostly cosmetic probably - nobody would really get hurt) until you activate a couple of switches to lower the boarding planks, at which point you would board the other ship while cannon fire continued. No topside cannons, just from the hull. That way, it's automatic.
If you finish a fight quickly enough, you have a chance to salvage the current ship and do either of two things: sell it, or keep it and add it to your fleet.
Keeping your fleet together would drain your money, either automatically or manually. A good idea I think would be to have your first mate come to you occasionally to collect the shares for the fleet.
I realize that having mutliple ships would create a problem, but think realistically here: Would a pirate captain really want to be jumping from ship to ship, helping to clear out the opposing forces? The same applies to a Naval captain. So yeah. Of course, you could do it.
At first, you would recruit pirates by yourself. If you decide to be a naval captain, you would be given a small force of sailors to work with. Any people you first get will be ill-equipped, not very skilled, and will generally suck at fighting, leaving you to help them out. As you advance in position, you would recieve or recruit better sailors/pirates who, when you're really high up, would be able to fend for themselves.
For size problems, I think a decent crew should be around 8-10 people per ship. You could probably have up to 15.
Naval officers will find that they can manage their ships for free. However, their men will be less well equipped and less skilled than if you decide to fund your own operation.
Pirates do not have the option of managing their ships for free, but they have a wider selection of fighters to choose from and will earn more money than an Imperial Naval Officer.
As for Leyawiin, Bravil, and the IC Waterfront, a new port or something would need to be added to each. I can imagine the Waterfront working well, but Leyawiin and Bravil might not work, which is okay.
And that's basically it. Let me know if it's a good idea or not, and whether it could be done or not.
I've always wanted to see something like this happen. It would be absolutely epic to see this done. I might add more to this long list.

Maybe some armor from Monster Hunter.
I'd love to run around Tamriel with full Lagiacrus or Rathian armor on.
Even Uragaan armor looks absolutely badass.

Sup.
Been playing Oblivion for several years now. I've got about 300+ hours logged total on Oblivion, mostly due to the fact that school takes up a lot of my time. I only play in like 2-3 hours a day, so, yeah.
I got into Morrowind after Oblivion and beat it, but having been spoiled by Oblivion it took me a while to do so.
I would play more Fallout 3, but my computer can't handle it and I don't have a PS3 or Xbox.
I've never made a mod in my life, nor do I think i could make one. I'm not even going to try. Anyway, you'll be seeing more of me soon. :D
More about me, uh.
I'm a junior in high school. I like Photoshop, graphic arts, etc. And video games, of course. I live in Seoul, South Korea.
Nice to meet you guys. :D

I started at 14. From then until like 5 months ago, I basically kept doing it non-stop while taking the regular supplements and trying to eat as healthy as possible.
You'd be surprised to see how much improvement you can make in the timeframe of about 6-8 months, especially with regular protein supplements.
It's only now since I started playing football that I haven't really had the chance to go to the gym.
@Calliton
45 minutes? Eh, I can see getting a workout in that timeframe, but just curious; Do you do anything outside of that? Extra push-ups, sit-ups, weights, anything?
