  • Letter to my blog

    Dear blog, With all my heart I want to apologize for neglecting you for the last several weeks. It’s not you, it’s me. Things have changed blog and I have been, umm, busy. No, there is not another blog. Please don’t cry.

  • Gaming life and burnout

    World of Warcraft Burnout. My gaming life has been shaken up a bit lately. Fist I was starting to feel some serious WoW burnout right when Champions Online arrived.  Then I started a new job, and my gaming time went from anytime (for as long as I wanted), to only a few hours when […]

  • Roller Coaster

    Wow, the last few weeks have been a roller coaster. Three weeks ago I was unemployed hoping that a job lead I was perusing would actually come through. It did, and then two weeks ago I had my first day on the job right as the team I joined was finishing up one milestone and […]

Work starts on Sept. 1, which only gives me a few days to actually try and enjoy some “time off” before I jump […]

After further consideration, and to meet the needs of our community, we have decided to reinstate the Lifetime and 6-month subscription promotional programs with no supply limit until […]

  • My World of Warcraft Scrapbook: Chapter 1

    With all the Cataclysm expansion talk I started thinking back to some of my favorite WoW moments. It was then that I realized that I really should document them in some fashion; thus my World of Warcraft scrapbook was born. For my first entry, some thoughts on how my WoW time started.

  • Cryptic sold out.

    I was not actually considering a lifetime subscription to champions, but the six month offer was tempting. Apparently Cryptic made the decision for me, since they forgot to tell anyone until last night that there was only a limited supply of the special offers. Asking people to commit to something before being able to take […]
