Weekend Over

It was a pretty non-descript weekend.  I slept in quite late both Saturday and Sunday, so I didn’t get a whole lot done, and it made the weekend seem to go even faster than normal I guess. I did get some quality time in on City of Heroes on Saturday evening, so that was cool.  A group of us decided to start all new heroes and go on a badge collecting binge, culminating in Positron’s story arc, which took us appx. 4 hours to complete the whole storyline, and most … Continue reading

EVE Multibox Mining

The other day I was posting over on TAGN’s blog about how cool a particular mining implant was for mining foremen and fleet mining ops.  I hinted that when I’m mining multi-box that I use my foreman in a command ship (currently a Hurricane, working towards a Claymore), my miner is in a Hulk, and that I have a dedicated hauler (currently piloting a Mammoth).  Of course this brought all kinds of jeers from the peanut gallery that if you’re going to multi-box mine, you should be flying all Hulks.  … Continue reading

Netbook Gaming

This article got me thinking (again) about my ultimate portable device.  Which really is just a cross between a netbook, a PSP, a cell phone, and a video camera.  What I really want my ultimate portable to be able to do is (in order of importance): Play games really, really well – esp. MMO’s so wireless/cellular internet is a MUST, and TONs of storage would help too – or just mega Flash memory cards (aren’t SDXC supposed to theoretically hold up to 2TB according to EEE docs? – so just let me interchange those … Continue reading

The Weekend Report

I actually got a few things done this weekend.  Of course not as many things as I would have liked, but just the same it was a fun and productive weekend.  I was able to finish “The Art of Game Design,” and spent some time getting deeper into “Creating a Life Worth Living.” I also did some work on the book that I’m writing. I think I will probably be spending more time on that project than the game for awhile, since I’m a much better writer than a game … Continue reading

Upcoming Long Weekend…

Well I won’t be doing any Valentine’s goofiness, I’m an old school nerdy gamer so I’m not allowed to have that kind of social life 😀 hehe. But I bet I will take a peek in on some of my game titles – esp. since all three of my EVE characters will be finishing up some major training landmarks this weekend. Nab finishes Astrometrics 5 and will move on to Electronics Upgrades 5 so he can join Marko’s Hound in a Covert Ops Cheetah. Marko will finish up Propulsion Jamming 5 and … Continue reading
