WoW = Wait on Worldpatch

Tuesday, December 5th, 2006

WoW Patch 2.0.1 is the evilness of gaming. I don’t play enough for it to be something that I should have to deal with when I want to play and yet, there it is! :( It’s looking like an hour or so of wait and by then, I won’t want to play. This bites. I guess that’s what happens when the patch file is around 500 MB? Ugh.

Okay, I’m done complaining now. Back to your regularly scheduled posts. :)

I have finally given in

Tuesday, June 6th, 2006

Yes, I now own World of Warcraft. It was a mere $17.99 and I just couldn’t pass up the chance to try it out to see if I would really like it. So far, I have a level 4 mage and well, after just about two hours of play, I’m rather enjoying it. I think I’m more comfortable in a fantasy game than a contemporary game like City of Heroes. I’m still enjoying Puzzle Pirates of course, so time will have to be split between the two. Sadly, I just can’t seem to continue with CoH. It’s not a bad game by any stretch, it’s just not the best fit for me. It’s pretty tough in this house not to like it though since J and the Terrors adore playing it. :)

Anyway, for those that I knew from Asheron’s Call days, what servers are you playing on and what are your names? I would love to meet up at some point and just hunt around. For old times sake, ya know? :D

Oh, and I’m part of the Alliance. I’m not certain if I really want to play a Horde character. That might be a bit too evil for me. We’ll just have to wait and see, I guess. ;)

How was I ever sucked in?

Chat rooms used to be the coolest thing when I was younger. I was soooo into them at 17/18. What I saw in them, I’ll never know! I enjoy playing on Pogo but sometimes feel like I should just turn chat off. People start chatting about the most personal things in general chat and it’s like watching a Jerry Springer show. I don’t know if everyone’s really messed up or if it’s attention seeking or if it’s just that the “normal” people aren’t chatting. I think I’ll just this up for the whole hindsight is 20/20 thing and try to forget that I was ever sucked into Chat Room Soap Operas.

Pixaboy!

Tuesday, October 18th, 2005

Through a series of jumps around the net, I naturally got off tangent and found the cute Pixaboy. Interesting concept and not so bad to deal with since it sends you an email reminder and you only have to visit it once a day to maintain it. I think it’s cute, though I’m not sure how long I’ll keep up with it before it falls to the way side like so many other things in my busy life. :)

Oh, this is too cute! Loads of fun, too. Anyway, it’s all Damon’s fault since he sent it to me.

So, go play DHTML Lemmings™ by crisp and enjoy yourself. :)
