Too much work, not enough time for gaming. ERP has gotten into full swing, just in time for me to get complete conflict with the annual report I’m supposed to be finalizing.
The Mystery Beta is quite a bit of fun. The problem being, the pressing demands on me are making it less fun to do [...]

On October 21st, we were treated to the experience of facing a wildfire and figuring out whether to stay or flee.
I’m finally gaming on this busy weekend, when I walk outside to take out the trash and notice a very large cloud covering the sun. Without thinking much further about it, I go back inside.
Soon my [...]

Before I even get into the swing of things again with EQ2, along comes a new beta acceptance and a whole new game. Cool !
At the moment I’m just waiting for the inevitable, interminable patching to get going. I’m not going to write about it either as that would violate the NDA. I [...]

Huehueteotl : Ding 36. Had quite a bit of fun with my wizard over the past few days.
I seem to remember him getting smashed up really well trying the root-and-nuke, six months ago. I don’t know what exactly has changed, but that’s definitely NOT the case anymore. Roots stick fairly well, if [...]

Tezcatlipocca : 52 achievement points. Had him wander many different places. First, an aborted trip to the Poets Palace, where he wanted to get to the Djinn Master solo. Opening the first door and finding all aggro greens in there convinced me I needed [...]

The Cokes football team goes down in defeat, by at least 20 points (the other guy has players in the Monday night game.)
I have got to have the most injury ridden team, even the Rams haven’t taken this many shots and had so few people able to play. Boldin, Bulger - still out, [...]

I poked around a bit on the official forums yesterday, and discovered an awesome change has been made recently - quest starters now drop even if the mobs are “pink/gray”. So no longer do you have to beg some newb to let you mentor them, then hang around with you, while you kill endless amounts [...]

After just noting that it had a firm ship date at last (June 2007), I log in today and discover they’ve cancelled the game.
The stated reason being, they need to concentrate. Recall that the devs are making both Star Trek Online, and Gods & Heroes. No doubt, the former is going to [...]

Tezcatlipocca : 50 achievement points, 1559 quests. Over the months Tez managed to fall to #18 on serverwide quests, so I started attacking that once again. The Loping Plains had quite a few unfinished quests, and at this point I only have heroic ones left to finish. [...]

I just started playing fantasy football this year. I had no idea it was so much fun, and totally free, on so many different websites. We have a league at work, which runs on Yahoo.
This week, I had big RB problems. Westbrook, an otherwise [...]
