I’ve finally realized that I simply have no interest whatsoever in maintaining this blog anymore, and have decided that I will be shutting it down soon. I had been meaning to redesign and repurpose it, but it’s just been sitting idle, so I think it’s time to stick a fork in it and call it [...]
Do you ever play the "Band Names" game, the one where you try to think of a cool-sounding and unique band name? For me, it usually results in some pretty goofy-sounding phrases (witness above), though I do occasionally come up with something kind of almost halfway clost to being mediocre. “There are only two hard [...]
Goodness… My last post is clearly a hot topic, I’ve never had so many comments on a single post before. I still have not caught up, been insanely sick, but I’m actually up and about today and feeling much better, so I have some heavy reading ahead of me tonight, apparently. So, while I’m busy [...]
It’s been nearly three years since I first discovered Torley Linden’s blog post (humorously titled Samurai Island Pizza Cats) and absolutely fell in love with Samurai Island. Prior to that, I was just kind of wandering around playing with stuff and exploring this strange and wonderful new Virtual World I had heard about. During that [...]
A recent thread by JulieAnne reminded me that I have been meaning to post something for a very long time. So long, in fact, that I’m not even sure this information is still valid. If this information is now out of date, please let me know and I’ll correct or remove it as appropriate. A [...]
As some of you are already aware, I’ve been working heavily on a new weapon lately (pictured at right). What I haven’t mentioned much is that my intention is to make it a dual-wield weapon, and I expect there will be a very mixed reaction from the community about that. I know there are a [...]
As many of you already know, I’ve been working on a new C:SI weapon for some time now. It’s been one of those projects where I sweat and agonize over every little detail, and I’ve probably started over from the beginning on each piece of the thing no less than three times each. That’s okay [...]
I guess I just can’t stop tinkering with stuff… Having run short of things to add to the player scorecards for the time being, I decided it was time to see about creating scorecards for each active C:SI region : You can get to any region’s scorecard in a variety of ways. The simplest way [...]
As you can see from the snapshot above, I’ve put up a new page on the official C:SI website that simply displays the results of the last 25 duels. If you want to see more than 25 duels, you can still choose to view the C:SI Twitter Feed, but I think I actually prefer to [...]
Plays faster in Firefox It’s all Ravish’s fault I was talking with Ravish Tyne recently about the upcoming C:SI update, and what things I had planned for my own weapons specifically, and as often happens during such conversations, we talked about a lot of things that are peripherally related as well. One recurring theme was [...]
