In the current, April 2008 issue of GAMES magazine (available at fine newsstands and bookstores everywhere-Borders for sure) there is a fake feature (april fool's a little early) about the World Dicing Championship called "Dice Wars." If you look on page 7 of the article, you can clearly see my goofy picture, next to some information that claims i'

I'll have to buy it.

oh, there are new townhouses out near Limerick going for $190k...that was what I had to call you about when you were in New York. we got a mailer for it...we were going to go out there this past weekend while we were driving around.

[little_octagon]

isn't that near a nuclear power plant?

[zombiekiller13]

yes, well...look at the bright side. at least you can talk to the forest creatures, now that they've developed vocal chords and like discussing politics.

[drinkycrow]

you still have the mailer? did they look nice?

[little_octagon]

hahaha - if that's true hanskishel MUST know about it, stat! he is the dicing-est gamer I know!

[drinkycrow]

that's a link to what the cover looks like (although far from my best work, it's done by yours truly)If he's big into games in general he might like the 'zine, but if he likes dice-related stuff he'd probably get a good knee slap out of the article.

Wait...wait...what do you have to do with Games Magazine?

PS It's pretty much my favorite thing ever. I buy it every month from work. I even picked up the WORLD OF PUZZLES issue today!!! I'm pretty pumped to get crackin on the Battleship puzzles.

I don't know why my Borders doesn't have the April issue out. Maybe we sold out already?

[drinkycrow]

yeah, you might have sold out of the April issue already. It's been out for a few weeks, i just kept forgetting to post about this.

I usually assume everyone who might be reading this knows that i am the Art Director for Games magazine (actually i am technically the art director for World of Puzzles too) I do almost all of the design for the magazine, plus i do a lot of the illustrations for it as well. (The april cover was actually illustrated by me, but it's not that good, i've done better)

You win at employment.

For real.

It's funny because I get irrationally excited whenever I ring someone up for a copy of Games...to the point that I think I scare them a little?

Me: "WOW GAMES MAGAZINE HOW ARE YOU TODAY WOW THAT'S LIKE MY FAVORITE MAGAZINE EVER"
Customer: "Yeeeeeeeeah...I don't need a bag for that"

[drinkycrow]

haha..that's pretty cool. When I'm working on an issue, i always wonder who out there actually reads and looks at the magazine. Nice to know someone appreciates it.

it is pretty cool to work for games magazine, but the publishing company which owns us isn't the best. Still, there's something to be said for walking into a book store, picking up a magazine, and seeing your work and name in it.

maybe i'm lame, but it never gets old.

GO WITH MY REALTOR! SHE WILL GET YOU ONE!

P.S. I miss you.

[drinkycrow]

i might take you up on that if our current realtor keeps acting like a douche

miss you too :D
