Dustin, PM/IRC me.

Get Lucky was leaked. Sounds awesome after hearing so many snippets/previews/interviews.

Insane in the Membrane, a beast of an achievement in World of Warcraft. If the linked article is too long for you, let me break it down for you. You had to simultaneously have exalted reputation with the following factions: #1 Bloodsail Buccaneers (Time Consumption 5%) - Earn approx 20,000 rep. At 25 rep for each monster killed, that's 800 kills. Try to kill more than one at a time and you'll get slaughtered. High difficulty with a low kill count and no loot rewards. #2 Steamwheedle Cartel (Time Consumption 40%) - Earn approx 60,000 rep. At 5 rep per kill, that's 12,000 kills. If you cough at one of the enemies they will die. No difficulty with a high kill count. You don't loot the bodies because it more than doubles your time investment for little return. No loot. #3 Shen'dralar (Time Consumption 25%) - Earn 42,000 rep. Gather 84 books (1% drop, you can only hold 3 books at a time), 84 diamonds (less than 1% drop if you want to find them OR super expensive if you want to buy them), and some other more common stuff (but still pricey) from a place called Dire Maul, home of the ogres. Those damn ogres. Expensive. #4 Darkmoon Faire (Time Consumption 10%) - Earn 42,000 rep. Collect 960 playing cards (120 decks of 8 cards each) and turn them in to a collector NPC. Common cards are cheap, but each deck has at least one rare card that is about the same price as the diamonds mentioned above. Expensive. #5 Ravenholdt (Time Consumption 20%) - Earn 42,000 rep. Start off by killing 4,200 mobs (dead if you cough at them but they hide in the shadows and have no loot). Then, play a new character class to almost maximum level if you aren't playing one already. With that character, you head out to an underground jail out in the middle of fucking nowhere. Sneak around undetected in there and pickpocket monsters for 1,400 of an uncommon item. You can only hold about 100 at a time. Then you go back to the main city and mail them to your main character for him to turn in at a collector NPC. Then back to the middle of nowhere. City. Boondocks. City. No man's land. City. Montana. Boring. All that for a little title above your head.

On that note: Brushfire, PLEASE get the post-jacuzzi video posted somewhere, if only for a few days. It deserves to be seen.

Thanks Cody. We had a blast making it and hearing arguments on both sides of the fence about it many years later keeps us entertained. Flik is just rapping about the cartridge, but some people seem to think he takes on Jeff's qualities a bit in the track. Take it a step further and then you associate MythNaz with Paula. Sweet, humble, innocent, badass rapper Paula...

Muahahahaha, I'm a secret even after you got your gift! While he and I don't talk much, Chris and I are still friends, and I'm thrilled he was able to hook me (you) up with that album. It was printed in limited quantities and is no longer available for purchase, but he had an extra copy that is now yours! Also, check your PMs! I signed you up for a pre-order of Mazedude's American Pixels album which will be released in 2013. Anyone who pre-orders also gets a free download of Star Spangled Chips, a chiptune remix EP. So that's waiting for you, too. Merry Christmas, dude.

I'm online most evenings. I see Gollgagh on a lot and nobody else.

WRONG! Nonamer got me the book The Art of Video Games along with some other cool and edible stuff. I will edit this post with pictures as soon as I can find my USB cable. My holiday shopping will be done this coming weekend, so keep watching your mail everyone!

An early Christmas present? For me? So goooooooooooood. See you at MAG, dude.

I swear I typed this up and hit send already .. maybe it was a late night. I realize that I've become a lurker this past year: only 11 posts since last year's SS. Shame on me. But, if you consider my post(s) last year as sort of a new year's resolution, then I've definitely kept it. I bought 3 games at release this year. Woohoo! Anyway, onto my vital SS statistics. I prefer practicality over prettiness, so lean towards something useful if you're stumped. Somebody handmade me a plush Cactuar in a previous OCR SS (which I loved), so remember that it's only a preference. I dig gaming, music, Phillies baseball, Flyers hockey, and things to entertain my girlfriend (nothing crude). I'd prefer no new games since I have plenty to play right now, but Steam wishlist because everyone else is. Snacks and candy are good too, but avoid chocolate if possible.

You're weird anyway! I'm game.

This game progresses just like "Playing Super Mario World While Taking Mushrooms" from a few years ago.

Bunch of nerds itt. Moguta and I have been rooming together at MAG for 7 years now (with two other random folks to keep costs down) and have been incident free every time. I'm here trying to extend that streak to 8 years. We have two open room spots! Requirements are basic: Alcohol, room hangouts, and games are cool. Drunks, parties, and drama are not cool. Also, don't be a dick. Interested? PM me. Update 10/22: Our roommates from last year (they were MAG noobs) are coming again this year and they were awesome dudes. Thanks anyway for the PMs guys. Some nostalgia from last year to jazz up the hype: Three Sorority Girls Discover MAGFest. Yeah, weird awesome shit happens to me sometimes.

I only played vanilla GW1, which was way before this HoM stuff, so I got 0 points.
