(Almost) September Update

Well, if I’m not going to post as often as I normally did (due to work and other obligations), then I’ll at least try to update once a month. ;)
Anyway…
Mysterium – The return trip from Spokane was uneventful, though delayed a day due to the illness. There was a three hour layover in [...]

Mysterium

As one of the group helping with Mysterium this year (and this is possibly my only chance to visit Spokane in awhile), I’m finishing plans to go. As things stand so far – and despite that I’m traveling from US/Eastern/NJ – it’s been pleasantly cheaper than my insane two-week jaunt last year.
Flight – $420 [...]

Two Anniversaries

This weekend, for most, marks one year since the MO:UL@Gametap shutdown. The past week I’ve been drawn more to this same (Easter) weekend two years ago.
That was the first time that I did a successful village takeover in Travian (this was on a server before the Gold system – or even a US server [...]

Pics Link

Current location of images I’ve made public (and easily reachable):

For those on the main page (*waves at Dad*) its under ‘Misc’ in my links area (top of left sidebar).
TODO: Need to move the old Telador archive there (from its old location, that is not easily found by search robots), and do some minor cleanup of [...]

Full Circle

[This is a local re-post of an article submitted for the October GoMe Newsletter. They'll be pleased to note that I'll be submitting items for the next couple months, in part inspired by 'recent discussions' within the community. Stay tuned, and hunker down...]

For the first time in three years, I stopped by NYC [...]

Going Forward…

I woke up this afternoon to one of my ‘forward looking’ dream-images (some of which, over the years, have come true to varying degrees). This time, it was a series of weblog posts about various things in the Myst community, but nothing at all related to Uru itself.
This makes me wonder if I really [...]

Much Fun /w Upgrades…

Lots of things in the last couple days:
-> Upgrade both my sites to WP 1.6.1; Unfortunately that also required I switch off of Fantastico and onto something called ‘Simple Scripts,’ but the interface does not look *too* bad and I guess I’ll just have to watch and see…
-> The two notebooks had their HDDs swapped. [...]
