Daily Blogg: The monolith has landed

Seven weeks, three days, eleven hours and a quick trip to the local post office and I have FINALLY got my XBOX back...

...well kinda...

I got a shiny new Elite, a black behemoth, a noir nemesis to the PC and PS3 and i gotta tell you, it was worth every damn penny for the upgrade.
So what does this all mean? Well im back on XBL and im playing with my shiny new toy, which in turn mean im neglecting my WoW toons a little for the next couple of days while i attempt to regain & remake some of my now lost XBOX saves while downloading the truly epic amount of downloaded content to the new console (about 16gigs of DLC ) as well as breaking in my shiny new black pad.

So not too interesting i know but thats what im doing.

see you on live folks!

Daily Blogg: Random Poetry time

a little random poetry just because i can...



War on terror?

Whispered voices call shadows from shallow places,
reeking stench of a thousand fettered heaps hum in the wind,
broken voices sing in chorus calling for peace,
deaf ears turn in mumbled silence to a indignant state,

How many times will we be ignored,
our sons and daughters trained for slaughter,
soaked in black gore spewed from an unyielding desert,
sand blasted as they fight for a government that does not care,

Politics and business demand there pound of flesh,
corrupting our world for greed,
gold and favours pass in darkness,
over the mouldering corpses of a dead generation,
as there souls lay twisted in the wreckage of a rich mans wallet.


hope you enjoy my work.

Daily Blogg: Work...still kinda sucks

So im off to do a little freelance work for the Official Xbox magazine's advertising department so that the "real" writers can deal with the Christmas glut of new releases.

no published name (except in microscopic print at the back of the mag)
no real money (about 1/4 of what there paying the in house guys)
but i get to work from home


so its not all bad.

oh well back to work, self motivation sucks too...i could be playing WoW or eating pies dammit

How Too: Be mine Holy Bovine

Meet Maladin a Lv80 "TAUREN" paladin
yep this is a live wow server not a hacked one and YES this is an unedited image shot just moments ago...

...so how can a race incapable of being a paladin (at least until the next expansion) roll this class to Lv80?

well....to be honest they cant and er nor can I and this is just a really cool graphical glitch available on the latest release of the WoW client. Heres how you do it



The WoW.com staff has confirmed it works, though the timing required is very precise. You need to be quick, but being too fast hitting one or the other is just as bad as being too slow. A few of us found that we had to slow down our fingers to do it properly, because "fast" to a hardcore FPS gamer is very different than "fast" to a casual MMO gamer. Click first, hit enter second. Not the other way around.

And there you have it...now be off with you, make yourself a Tauradin or a undead hunter or even a troll druid waaaaay before blizz let you in game.

Daily Blogg: Doctors Doctors everywhere

Doctors Doctors everywhere (everywhen?) and which one shall i be?



In case your really interested im going to be the 8th Doctor (bottom left) as soon as i shave off the old face fuzz and pretty up my hair a little.
The costume for this year is relatively simple as all i have to do is put on a shirt and frock coat with a silk scarf, a pair of black pants with a pair of shiny black shoe's...


....oh and MY SONIC SCREW DRIVER!

How Too: Halloween decorations

its that time of year and its time to get spooktactular!
Nothing says haunted house like spider webs so its time to cover every available surface

Part 1



Part 2



Ok so the videos suck but you get the idea right?

You wil need:

*strand cotton wool
*sticky tape
*black card
*scissors (to cut the card into spider shapes)

and there you go, use your brain here and you can do some amazing things.

Daily Blogg: Reality bites

So ive been a tad busy, you know business card level busy chasing up work in the run up to Christmas. With this in mind and one of my regular (and more vocal members ;p) im making a promise.

As of this day come hell or high water I shall post at least once a week and it shall be something useful/funny/silly or in some way relevant.


Now on with the Blogg!
