Guild Wars Monks:

These Monks won the Guild Wars costume contest. Their prize pack contained a Logitech gaming keyboard and a Logitech gaming mouse. The male Monk wore his costume in response to a dare from Gaile Gray, ArenaNet Community Relations Manager, yesterday.

The only music concert I attended last night was the opening act: The OneUps. They’re one of my favourite videogame music remix bands, and if you haven’t bought their music, you should. Right now. Before it goes out of print again.

I missed the first 30 minutes of the show, unfortunately. Anyway, the show was really […]

Really quickly before I head out (late).
Each panelist was instructed to introduce themselves, how they got into games, and how they got into the industry. The moderator was Trixie from Xbox.com. Apparently her reputation precedes her and she doesn’t need to be introduced with a last name. The panelists were Jane Pinckard from CMP (the […]

As the Super Fan 2007 winners arrived and Gaile Gray presented us with our prize packs, a photographer was standing by to capture the moment. I wrote earlier that I expected these photos to be posted on the Guild Wars website soonish. I was correct.
I thought they were going to pick photogenic people, but they […]

The first stop of my day was the ArenaNet booth. As a Guild Wars Super Fan Contest winner, I was instructed to speak to Gaile Gray, Guild Wars Community Relations Manager, so that she could give me and my guest our VIP passes to tomorrow’s ArenaNet party.

I was in for a surprise. In addition to […]

I should put coverage in quotes, because my small l readership can certainly go elsewhere for in-depth and extensive coverage from Penny Arcade Expo (PAX). I hope to provide a different angle from those big game blogs. I also hope that non-life-threatening hijinks and shenanigans with minimal financial impact will ensue so that I can […]

OMG! I won the Guild Wars Super Fan 2007 Contest! My 100 words won me a VIP Early Access ticket to the Guild Wars party at the Penny Arcade Expo!
I’m so excited that I can hardly type!

My badge for the Penny Arcade Expo 2007 arrived today:

A flyer from ArenaNet was also included in the package:

On the back are details of ArenaNet’s activities at the convention:

The other promotional material was largely uninteresting. The only other thing that caught my eye was a flyer from Bandai Namco telling me to go to their […]

A few things:
1) I have been ill recently. I had to go into Urgent Care on Friday, and now I am on some nice medication, which should fix what’s wrong. There are a couple of other health problems that have been slowing me down, too, but medication isn’t the best route for those problems.
2) I […]

If anyone would like to do something nice for me, please tell these kind people why I deserve to get a trip to Stockholm to learn how to be a pro gamer with the girlz 0f destruction. This clan is apparently the “highest level professional female” Quake 4 clan.
…to qualify we want you to tell […]
