RL may be for losers...but every so often, it crits us all...

The title may not be too clear, but what im hinting at is that due to RL critting me for 9001, i've been fairly inactive in certain aspects of my game life lately. EVE has definitely suffered, and a lack of money (or rather, the fact i owe friends money - sorry trog :( ) means that 27d training times are on the menu whilst the corp relocation effort continues on it's steady pace.

Black Ops is also another victim. After hitting 1st prestige and getting through the ranks at a fair pace, I simply dont have the drive for more than a game or 2 when the rest of the guys are up for it, but overall, the Black Ops division is doing great with the servers being at capacity for much of the day, and a US Tournament Team in the works, with plans for an EU one. If you're interested, check out www.miaclan.net

However, one games loss is another's game. Or rather 2 games gain. With the go-ahead that MIA will be getting a minecraft server, we've been busy spending roughly 12 hours a day solid working on building the perfect towns, starting zones and a working theme park, along with all the mods (including customization and ironing out any conflicts - Thanks Top Cat :D). When it goes live, the server will have a working economy, quest givers and other NPC's as well as the ability to form your own towns, open-world PvP and also war-declarations between towns! Stay tuned for more info on that front.

The other game is WoW. The dreaded WoW. Just like most good MMO's, you never truly quit WoW, and i've proven that so. In a playtime of 2 days 6 hours, im currently at 69 on my new Goblin Warrior on Steemwheedle Cartel EU - home of the PC Gamer magazine guild. I got disenfranchised with the easymode that was introduced with WOTLK, but somehow, Blizzard seems to have fixed this feeling in me and turned me into a believer - again. *sigh* Raid tanking here i come....

Thanks :)
