  1. Yep yep, The Herald will pay 10K Linden to the best musical adaptation of the Ballad of CopyBot. Does anyone know if SL has an opera house?

This time, it looks like it was the “get recent comments” plugin, because there’s 30,000 comments on the site (that’s after deleting all the deleted ones and all the spam ones). I’m opening the site temporarily just to see if […] Source: Raph's Koster Website Categories: Bloggers 23:45 My five step recovery meme Just a minute, I’m still flipping through my little pink unicorns diary from when I was just a wee lad. Ten minutes later after flipping through the pages a dozen times… Shit, I don’t even have five entries in here, figures I didn’t write much back then either. Alright, alright. I wasn’t looking forward to […] Source: Pitfalls – Krones Categories: Bloggers 21:52 Okami halfway point Okami should have ended a few hours (of gameplay) ago. While I feel like I’m getting a good feel for how the game is played and that my skills have definitely improved, the game came to a proper climax and now is being dragged out.

(For the Warcraft illiterate — rogues can learn dual wield at level 10.

We lost power three times in two weeks, a record for West Seattle where, according to a neighbor’s friend, they hadn’t lost power once in over twelve year. I moved to the city to get away from power failures, and thought my UPSes were superfluous, a way to prevent […] Source: Mischiefbox Categories: Bloggers 20:01 See, This Is Why I Live In Texas We choose to place a giant banana in geostationary orbit in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard.

Many dead noobs and noob NPC guards later, the […] Source: AFK Gamer – Foton Categories: Bloggers 16:14 I Want to Play the Megalomaniac Psychotic Doctor There are rumors and whispers that Battlestar Galactica Online is in the works, being put together by Vivendi. Whether or not it is an MMO or a lighter online experience remains to be seen, although early indication is that it will be an XBox 360 exclusive. That being said, Scott’s talked in the past […] Source: Zen of Design – Ubiq Categories: Bloggers 16:06 The Burning Crusade is Gold Hat tip Cesspit.  Tuff find.  Gold means the master CD or DVD has been burned.  Problems: 1.

The devs have clearly never flown Raptors.” On the other hand, this will be the first MMO that has in-game […] Source: BrokenToys – Lum Categories: Bloggers 08:26 Updated blogroll I updated the blogroll, and simply called everyone a ‘Friend of the Show.’ I haven’t added a million links, but added some few that I read often. Source: Matt Mihaly Categories: Bloggers 06:45 Five things about me Damion asked nicely, so here goes. Please note that there are a lot of things about me that I prefer not to be common Internet knowledge, so self-censorship is heavily implied. 1. I’m a professional journalist. That is to say, I’m trained to do it (bachelor’s in journalism/mass communications, Kansas State University, class of 1998) and […] Source: Damned Vulpine – J.

I’m afraid I’m not as exciting as some people, including the people who have memed me. So you’ll just have to blame Lum and MMOGNation for being subjected to this.

But I’m feeling […] Source: Zen of Design – Ubiq Categories: Bloggers 00:39 Looking Forward, Looking Back As we enter the new year, it’s worthwhile to talk about where we came from, and how it will affect things moving forward. In many ways, 2006 was good for me, at least personally. I got married, which I should definitely mention in the ‘good’ category. Also, I got the best job […] Source: Zen of Design – Ubiq Categories: Bloggers […]
