MMODIG’s Unbeliever found an amusing YTMND of MacGyver saving World of Warcraft with duct tape, a paper clip and a large brilliant shard. Thank God he didn’t need dreamfoil, too. That shit’s hard to find. (MMODIG link: Get high with MacGyver!)
If you’ve been following the cat fight between Smed, he of SOE fame, and Penny Arcade, the lifestyle center, Gabe (PA’s L. Ron Hubbard) has photos and a short post about the 1,200 Krispy Kreme donuts they received yesterday from Smed and SOE. Here’s the cat fight so far: Smed upset with what PA said, PA upset with what SOE said, mmm donuts, SOE makes the lifestyle center’s news page again. If those girls don’t stop picking on each other, one of them is going to develop an eating disorder.
Oh. I forgot to give a nod to Dungeons & Dragons Online that launched this week. Max level 10 (woohoo!), steep leveling curve (booo!), $50 box price (meh), $15 a month to play (pfffft!) and there be ELVES (hooray!). I played a few nights in one of the DDO beta events; got a few levels on my character (a rogue, duh) and shook some of the noob stink off of me. I didn’t think it was a bad little game, what little I experienced; didn’t think it was an awesome little game either. Maybe it’s one of those games that will age well, like Eve Online. (Succinctly: we used to have Eve Online jokes and now we don’t.)
