So, as the title says, it was an interesting day today ( Read more... )

Updated the profile for one of my villains, Penelope Dreadful.

She's taking a while to level, but it's worth it just to be able to throw cars and forklifts at enemies...

Had a fun afternoon roleplaying with Nick and Perry (with Jelly watching from her position curled up next to Nick on the sofa and no doubt thinking we were all quite, quite mad). We were playing V:tM (old World of Darkness, none of this new stuff), with Nick GMing because it's one of his special areas (the others being Mage and Conspiracy X. Mine ( Read more... )

I just got one of the coolest compliments I've had in a while ( Read more... )

My knees feel like someone's gone at them with a sledgehammer.

Screw that. I'm reading MSTs and listening to VH1. (Interested in what I'm reading? Wander over here)

A few points I've noticed about AO since I've been playing it. Possibly the most obvious point is that MMORPGs attract a ( Read more... )

Nick got himself Anarchy Online the other day. Now, AO is basically a sci-fi version of EverQuest - one great big MMORG on the net. Nick's been wanting this for ages, so this week he treated himself to it when he found a copy for £5 and, all excited, came home, spent hours downloading the patches and then settled down to playing it ( Read more... )
