Interesting article and comments about the dude who’s claiming responsibility for the Super Columbine Massacre RPG that’s been floating around on the intarwebs for several months. (Rocky Mountain News) Let’s see … I first became aware of this RPG around April 2005 (no, I won’t link it, do a search), the murders were in April 1999 — six years, approximately, passed between event and RPG creation. I wonder how long it will be until someone crafts a flight sim based on the September 11th murders. Probably longer than six, but I’ll guess it won’t be ten years. Then, Congress will try to legislate, the judicial branch will “wtf, umm no” and bloggers will have a whole week’s worth of posts! Here’s my post already, and I will quote myself later because that seems very popular in blogging: Show some restraint, ffs.

Curt Schilling Wants to Kill You
Maybe you read about the upcoming EverQuest II fundraiser for amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease. (Wikipedia and learn.) From the press release, each time a player battles and defeats Curt Schilling with his Curt Schilling lookalike NPC (kinda creepy) in game, Sony Online will donate $5 (maximum total of $10,000) to the ALS Association. The fundraiser will run from June 5th, 2006 through June 7th. This sounds like a great idea and very imaginative, but I’m thinking Curt might roll over on some of these battles — although, either way, it’s win/win for the ALS Association. Also, I’m wondering if Curt Schilling really uses the word “amongst” in conversation and if he ever lol’s in guild chat.
This is Dead Last on My List of Warcraft Priorities: More Players
We don’t need more players in World of Warcraft. We need more hardware or different internet hook ’em up thingies or at least some new ideas.
We, for sure, don’t need more players who will level a warlock to 60, join a Blackwing Lair raid and then ask if they should soulstone a mage before the fight.
Ya. Soulstone a mage please. Because if the shit starts to hit the proverbial fan, I want to make sure I can get a portal OUT.
I used to wonder where we found some of our fine warlocks, but now I know: It must have been a past Recruit A Friend drive.
