Victory Against Humans
We have been braving the toils of battle.net against real people with both success and failure, but mostly success! The actual outcome of our gaming evenings have been based off of a series of d20 rolls: 1 through 9 for…

I’ve Been Playing on BNet Too Much
Somewhat related to my previous post, this comic seemed to resonate with me. We were adventurous this weekend and played a 2v2 co-op game against hard AI opponents. We got curb stomped pretty badly during an early AI rush the…
AFK StarCraft 2
Absolutely nothing productive was accomplished this past weekend. I didn’t do any chores, I didn’t run, I didn’t work on any projects. Hell, I only left the house twice: once to quickly pick up something and another time to eat.…

UPS and Keiya’s Sims Crack Habit
Where the hell is my package going? Why did ship from Oklahoma to Kentucky when I live in California? Furthermore, why did I bother with one day shipping on Amazon instead of just running over to Best Buy to purchase…
