So they call me Mellow Yellow….

July 21, 2010 No Comments

That is how I felt the other night. After a kick ass battle between the Grimwood Lumbercamp and E.C. it all of a sudden died. Were there boat loads more creeps than freeps? No, not really, we were about equal in numbers. So why did they leave? Who knows, they got wiped once and then left. Maybe they were tired of not being able to zerg a few that... [Read more]

A PvPing we will go…

July 7, 2010 2 Comments

The Adventures of  an awkward War-Leader: Friday night, US Primetime: I call the war-leader to come out and play. She has not seen the dark of night for quite a while and needed the exercise; she was getting a bit slow. Now, the war-leader never comes out unless there is a group of Creeps running around due to her inability to kill even a fly,... [Read more]

They introduced vehicles in Entropia Universe yesterday and, having used their legs to get everywhere in the past, the players went wild over them. The developers had announced that they were going to distribute cars for free to random lucky players during the day so people were either hanging out in the cities waiting for the GMs to show up, or showing... [Read more]

It has been a while…

It certainly has been some time since I have been able to sit down for a few minutes and type out my recent thoughts about the state of PvMP. As if the past few weeks, I have found myself playing a little bit less. Not for the lack of people to fight against. However, it is for the lack of…. want. There are times I just do not want to play. But... [Read more]

Discovering Entropia Universe
Part 1: Noobs Need Not Apply

May 26, 2010 3 Comments

I first discovered Entropia Universe in 2008 while doing convention coverage for IGN Vault at Gencon in Indianapolis because Mindark had a booth there. Back then,  it was still running under the old graphics engine so although the game mechanics appealed to me, the visuals didn’t. In August 2009, they switched over to the new client which uses... [Read more]

Quite and interesting week it has been!

April 26, 2010 3 Comments

This has been a very interesting week for PvMP in LOTRO. People have been ranking, people have been crying over stupid things that they just do not need to cry over, and most of all, people have been pvmping! I think that is the most important part. From what I have seen, people are coming out again in full force to the ‘Moors. It brings a smile... [Read more]

Things will never change…

April 10, 2010 No Comments

After a week or so off from the ‘Moors, I decided to finally just log back in. Isn’t it funny how things work sometimes? While I was away, there were some epic battles going on, but the minute I log back in, nothing. Seriously, I mean nothing was going on. Ok, nothing is not the correct word to be using in this instance. However, I shall explain... [Read more]

Wizard 101’s Sorcery Stones on iPhone

February 17, 2010 1 Comment

If you’ve ever played Wizard 101, chances are that you’ve played one of the most addicting minigames online. Sorcery Stones is a tile match game similar to Bejeweled but unlike the latter, you can only move tiles laterally and you don’t necessarily have to make a match when you move a tile.  In Wizard 101, playing minigames hastens... [Read more]
