  School-based Gamers' Network

  ...comparable to a clan, I suppose.

  ...very hard to get it up and running. Actually setting the basework, your idea, communication tool (in this case, Facebook), is pretty easy. So maybe it's just a matter of patience, "Build it and they will come." On the other hand I've no real idea how to set up a real compulsion for people to join.

  Maybe cos I just came up with the idea in the shower on Monday. Hm.

  ...just a random blip note. Readers, have you ever tried starting something in school that gathered all the gamers together for...I suppose nerdiness at its finest. You would think, however, since gaming's somewhat more mainstream than it was years ago, it wouldn't be that bad of an idea.

  ...I mean, heck, look where I'm writing this.

  Ehhhh...wot?

  So I heard a rumor going 'round that in a week me or so the McNamara class of '09 are gonna be seniors....

  ...shiitake. Still haven't set up that "Gamers' Guild," Mac division yet...

  ...yes, it doesn't exist. Bad joke. Yagh, sorry.

  ...who am I talking to.

  Anyways...GameSpot got a new layout update...amazing. Hasn't crashed on me yet.

  ...now I just need to find where my Live gamercard went...

  Post Script:

  Ah, there it is. Now Microsoft needs to explain why I can't get into their site on my e-mail, and why I can't get my password reset...bugger..

  "School days, bull days..."

  Nyagh, two weeks left of summer...

  ...lessee, game-wise, what've I done....in no particular order...

  - Neverwinter Nights -Shadows of Undrentide Campaign (wanted to run my bard character through the fan-made Shadohaunt "interlude", but unfortunately someone forgot to TURN DOWN the bloody amount of instant death spells..)

  - Guitar Hero (II) -Fairly decent at MOST of the non-bonus songs on Medium (disregarding perhaps blasted Psychobilly Freakout, for instance), can play probably the first two sets of songs on Hard, and can somewhat get through Life Wasted, Possum Kingdom, and Heart-Shaped Box (heh) on Expert. As for the ol' favorite, Woman...well...things are a tad difficult even on Hard. Jeh.

  - Oblivion - ...well, for some reason I can't run the content I downloaded through Live on the new 360 'less I'm connected to Live in the stuffy-as-heck den.And this includes Shivering Isles...*twitches* Still,Oblivion's stillquite fun. Made a character based off of a friend of mine for kicks, and one a Khajiit with the class of "Drunk Master" (cos 'Drunken Master' wouldn't fit), named...Ji'Stree Kir. ...yup. Haha. He runs around clad only in a loin cloth and the Bracers of Khen Loah (or whatever they're called, they're in the chest outside the Arena), and he somehow gets away with jobs for the Thieves Guild, indecent exposure, drunkeness, and the occasional public brawl. Sometimes or not simultaneously. Heheh.

  - Finally played a Wii. Okay, so the game was only Wii Sports. The heat in Greg's house was naggy and I think I got something like a migraine while playing Boxing, but DAMN, was that fun. The family's sold, too. Heheh.

  - Got...or rather, the sister got Brain Age for the DS. 'Tis quite entertaining, surprisingly.

  - Haven't actually gotten any new games this summer, now that I think about it. Mostly just been buying Forgotten Realms paperbacks and such. Then again, Assassin's Creed, Mass Effect, Halo 3, and all other such coming out in Fall...probably will only end up getting two of any of those games, heh.

  'Tis about all that comes to mind at the moment.
