California loves to fight. I wonder why Texas isn't as fierce or Michigan for that matter.

Here's my thanks for helping me Mai. :D
 
So James Cameron's new studio is moving in next door to my work building. Also, the Big 4 (Metallica, Slayer, MegaDeth, Anthrax) are going to announce US tour dates tomorrow. Not a bad Monday.
 
Windows 7 just got sexier. HALO REACH concept art Theme you can download for free. I put it on shuffle, so every 15 minutes the wallpaper changes from the 13 choices they give. Even plays the BGM!

Edit: Even Gears of War 1-2-3 themes. Plus Alan Wake!

Battlenet has a nasty habbit of doing that. Maybe it's because Diablo 3 is comming out, that they think they can start closing Diablo 2 servers?... Because I wouldn't put it past them.
 
no i put a email in to them and apparently i'm ip banned. Which is ridiculous cause i never even got a chance to log into to the darn thing. So i um..."expressed my concern" to one of theyre tech guys that emailed me.
 
You could probably plead all you wanted and as "sincerely" as you can. It doesn't change the fact it's Blizzard.
Hopefully it can be sorted out though.

... Maybe they banned your IP based on another Blizzard game you once played?

This. Which happens to be at THQ. Don't know how they're able to keep me on the payroll.
 
Ah okay. :D

My official title is Compliance QA Project Lead. Mainly Nintendo Compliance. My team and I are in charge of making sure all Nintendo titles meet the required Guidelines that Nintendo wants implemented in titles released for their consoles/handhelds.

Mostly by luck. I started out as a temp tester and then was asked to be Full-Time. Less than a month in, a position opened up on the Nintendo team and I was able to get in (Positions in compliance rarely opened up during that time.) A year and a half later, the Lead position opened up. I applied and got it. Here I am now! :)
 
Well, last night I went to a BBQ with 6 beers and some meat. I found myself eating 4-5 times the amount of food I began with, and drinking almost the same, whilst swimming in a (still clean) pool with a thin layer of algae on the bottom. Seeing as I only had a shower this morning, I'm certain I've given enough time for my body to place host for a new biome in which new micro-organism's have emerged.
And I'm not even hung over... somehow. (I'm pretty certain my liver's waiting for the opportune time to spring something bad on me).

But on that note. for the Aussies reading this, Happy Australia Day, and good luck being as stereotypical as you can. If the BBQ isn't fired up up and the beers not stacked high, then you btter make a start. Half the day's already gone!

(oh... and don't drink and drive, and look out for your mates...)
