Okay, I think this has gotten a bit out of hand. This is MY blog, and I DO moderate the comments. Syp, if you and your minions insist upon spamming my blog with your negative comments, I’m just going to delete them. West Karana is a safe, supportive site for people who love MMO games and the people who play them – not some sort of weird gathering place for people who are only allowed to think as you do. ...
It’s not that I don’t agree with everything Syp of Bio Break says, or stands for. Well, I DON’T agree, but it isn’t JUST that. If I said LEFT, he’d say RIGHT. If I looked up at the sun and said it was bright, he’d swear from here to Sunday that it was the blackest night he’d ever seen. He just can’t stand seeing me be right about anything. Well, that ends now. Because I AM right. About EVERYTHING. ...
Thanks to Longasc for the use of his Sovereign class heavy cruiser for the exterior shots of the USS Alvarado.
Picture is Maxfield Parrish’ 1922 masterpiece, “Daybreak”. Dad had bought an old print of that from SOMEWHERE and we had it above our mantle as long as I can remember. I used to think of stories behind that picture. The true story, that it was a painting done specifically to be reproduced using the then-new CYMK four color lithography process, never occurred to me.
Blizzard announced today that all the rumors about their forthcoming expansion were true. Players will be able to play werewolves, and they’re going to need all the werewolves they can get to meet the demand. Werewolf Bob can’t let this opportunity pass him by. It’s the people you leave behind that hurt the most.
This comic was made in a very early beta. LM went to the Desert Crisis zone after this, while Moonmist tried the Canada zone.
The first of three comics set in Champions Online introduces Moonmist, the least famous member of the supergroup “Celestial Light”. This comic was made early in closed beta and the game’s look has improved substantially since. Also, the plot of the comic has absolutely nothing to do with the actual storyline of the tutorial.
Thanks to @caffo for the inspiration. He posted up a picture that said “For the first time in my life I was happy. Then I realized it was all the caffeine,” with a dozen cups of coffee. So I was going to have the AiM crew do a podcast, where they spent most of the time talking about their cups of coffee while completely ignoring the Monopoly game going on all around them… and it kind of grew from there. ...
But they weren’t IN the woods.
When a friend asks you to look after their pets for a couple of days, don’t just automatically say yes… Finally got around to reinstalling EQ2, so it launches and works and all that fun stuff. And they had new pets in the Marketplace! So naturally, a camel came home with me. And by home, I mean not the guild hall, as the new pets can’t be placed there. Sadness. ...
