Apparently there were about 5,000 people in line. About 50 got turned away in the end with nothing. KROQ's raffling was done poorly (who'd blame them, they obviously thought there wouldn't be a huge turnout and have the line wrap around the building). Blizzard reps came out to rile up spirits - the guy with the tauren try to get everybody to do a ( Read more... )

So I was waiting at the Guild forum to see which server they would pick on the East side. By the time I got the server, I rushed over to Fry's and arrived at 11...to a mad zoo. Parking was horrendous, so we scattered ourselves across a block or two. So now I call Mark, who exclaims, "You've just arrived now??" it was cool, the people around them ( Read more... )

Friday - Clem stayed overnight on the couch because his roommate was getting with his girlfriend for the first time in months (y'know how that is). We talked up a storm - he's nice and easy to talk to. My mom calls and he's teasing me, "oooh, is that Anthony??" and I say, "naw, he wouldn't call me." I mean, he WOULD unobligingly call, which is cool ( Read more... )

I have a bunch of screenshots from my earlier times...wow this has been a long 6 months. I thought it was a year already ( Read more... )

So 2 weekends ago, Wow was down due to server maintenance. Fortunately, Guild Wars was available, and I convinced Justin and Dave to get pre-orders, and they got 2 of their friends to join....then Anthony suggested we go to Speedzone that Saturday. I looked at him funny, "but Guild Wars just came out!......and, and I told Justin to get the game. It ( Read more... )

I would like to move to a new place where I don't know anybody and be mute by choice, just like that girl from The Piano. I would not have to open my mouth and hear disgusting guttural sounds coming from my throat.

Guild Wars is awesome. GO GET IT!!! It's probably coming out Feb '05, but you can pre-order it. The game will cost $50 and have NO monthly fee. Some Blizzard guys left after Diablo 2 and went to the GW company. Pre-order allows you to play in the scheduled events (first weekend of every month) and give you an invitation key for a friend to play one ( Read more... )

Let's see, Rogue's at max level 60. We can only have 2 tradeskills/professions now so she's leathercrafter/herbalist. Leathercrafting probably not necessary. She was an assassin/subtlety rogue that killed like a ninja and was really quick at grinding. They twisted the remorseless talent so now she's combat/assassin and probably better in groups.

We woke up too late for Eggs 'n Things so we ate breakfast with Bernice at Jack in the Box. We transferred photos to the laptops (very convenient....now I'm too lazy to upload them). We just kicked around until the taxi came to pick us up for the airport ( Read more... )

We started by eating at Curry House here. It was excellent - you can add whatever you want to your sauce, and I got curry udon YUM! BTW, the 7-11s here sell good sushi - spam sushi, and tuna salad sushi. The interesting part with the latter sushi is that the seaweed is kept separate from the body, so when you want to eat it, you wrap it fresh so it ( Read more... )
