It started as an ordinary patrol. Mistake was pretty new to the game, still learning his way around. I was all to glad to bankroll his starter ship - after all, I'm usually pretty broke, but even I could afford to outfit his starter ship with some decent gear. Which I did. I even went …

Let's just get one thing straight here, okay? They're not hair, they're not a funky hat, they're not even colorful scarves. They're tentacles. On your head. And unless you're sleeping in the sunken city of R'lyeh, that's just wrong. Very, very wrong. Look, I'm not one to tell you how or what you should be …
I would like to think that this is a whole new breed of people behaving in such a shameful manner. The other night, I was running around Darktide with some old friends, really having a great time, and watching as they ambushed a gang of Bloods outside a town. It wasn't that big of a …

This new RP-ing filter thing is a killer idea. I don't know how simple it was to code, but I'm amazed nobody's done it before. It allows someone who's a terrible role-player (ie, me) to not so forcefully intrude upon people that are devoted role-players (ie, everyone that appealed the name "Bottom"). Okay, I think …
Jumpgate is trying very hard to dislodge AC from my "Mostest Favoritest MOG Evah" slot. As if PuzzlePirates wasn't enough. The thing that really has me loving Jumpgate so much more than other space MOGs is the fact that you really do fly the ship. It's not EQ in space; when you go into combat, …
So, Darktide. It's this place, right, where basically every other person's mission is to make you miserable. And folks? When I say they are good at their job, I really mean it. Sincerely. The great thing about playing on Darktide is that I've got 40% vitae, no-drop armor and a no-drop bow. Oh, and a …
I'll tell you right now: I've worked with some stupid people. I'm not bragging or anything; I'm just telling you that there are people, sometimes called co-workers, that are pretty stupid. They'd do things like stick floppy discs to their filing cabinets. With magnets. And then they'd call me because the disk was 'corrupted.' So …
So at the start of the evening, I was all excited. See, I had THIS fantastic story to tell you about: Yup. No photoshop trickery there - I really did kill him! He was a level 49 Shadowblade, down in DF ganking Albs. But with my superior firepower, I brought him down! Okay, okay, I'm …
So there's these occupiers. And they're, you know, occupying the city. Avalon City, to be specific. The story goes that these guys moved in and killed the entire population or something. Or maybe they found it deserted. I don't know, really. The fact is, they are there now, and nobody else is. Well, nobody except …
So everyone knows about the Line of Death, right? No, I'm not talking about any geo-political boundaries or any of that nonsense. I mean that line that you do not, not even if there are a bazillion Mids charging up behind you, go past in the party. That line that the one person in your …
