This working lark puts a big dampener on the gaming life, but I guess the pay does help ;-p
Roll on winning the lotto!
Last weekend saw a lot of faffing about on games… playing but not really doing anything… it was annoying.
Wow has made a comeback, Skyrim has fallen to the side, Eve is still chugging along. Xcom has been left waving in the wind... until the new one comes out.
A friend in and out of wow placed me in a situation, last week he signed me up for a raid, told the raid leader I would be there etc. And that was before he told me.
I never raid when away form home. The broadband dongle does tend to be a bad connection. So not wanting to let him or them down I setup wow and mumble and was surprised that it all worked.
Despite a "dc" or two. My Main, the hunter, between normal and bonus rolls got about 5 replacement parts.... nice.
I'll be in the same situation this Thursday.... lets hope it works out just as well.
Skyrim was stopped dead in its tracks. As I didn't bring my laptop home and I didn't copy my latest saved game onto a usb stick I couldn't work on continuing the story line...
Time in Eve has been a few rounds of quick updating, skills and P.I.
After a number of people asking about my POS's position for sale, I think I have a persistent buyer. Next day or two will tell for sure.
I picked up the second Eve collectors edition from the post office last night. Just before they shut, another 2 minutes and I'd have had a disappointing trip. I added the codes and got the "stuffs", including the plex, but it sold for 20 mill less than the other one last week. Still 600 Mill each for free is nice.
An alt was finally admitted to the 0.0 corp, I didnt' get to do much else than read the current alliance/corp mails, setup the proper intel channels and get a general feel for the corp. I was gonna go get a hauler
and P.I. command centres, but there are a number of war dec's just out, hi-sec hubs are not safe. I'll get another alt to ferry about some stuff for him.
My Eve related web reading has been greatly reduced, I still check both the blog's of CSM members Jester and Mike, with http://evehermit.wordpress.com/. I've also been reading their blogroll entries and looking at the top 10 sites that they list.
I've also started to cast an eye on Dust 514. The equivalent Dust version of a CSM member is a CPM, so have been reading http://hansshotfirst.blogspot.com
