Played some SC2 last night with friends. Decided after a couple rounds as my normal Protoss to play Zerg, something I have been doing a bit recently to try and increase my APM (I am glacial). After 2 games of this Kchan says over Skype "Stop out-zerging me!" as I'd executed economy based 10 pool twice with fairly decent percision and also expanded ( Read more... )

Got Skyrim the weekend it came out, have played around 80 hours on it now. My character is probably best described as Arcane Trickster archetype. Lots of stealth skills and a healthy dose of magical skills.

Just got back from a trip to London with mother and siblings. Was siblings first time there, think they enjoyed it. We went to Harods, where I picked up two gifts for my grandparents this christmas: A Harods Xmas bauble and Nothing. Bets on whether they get the joke ( Read more... )

I've got a new laptop. Seems to be good, and running fine so far.

Work is work. Money is good when it comes.

Currently playing SC2, Minecraft and Rift. Why Rift? Cause WoW is dead to me and the new laptop can actually run it fairly well.
