Explorer Catastrophies

I think my Internet Explorer crashed. The crazy thing gave all the template settings to websites before they displayed what was written, and that was left alligned. It was very unnerving to see Andrew's blog reduced to a white background. I have come to really like that nice blue color. I killed that instance of Explorer, and the problem went away (I think/hope) but it was really weird none the less.

I think I may have lost my character in Runescape. The runescape server went offline, and I think it took my character with it. I hope that they log me off for me, because I can't log on to log off: I have no way of knowing that I am not dead.

My New Blog

I am starting a new blog, one devoted to RPG gaming ideas. Hopefully it will be more successful than this one, which has taken forever to get any comments whatsoever at all. Thanks to those of you who do comment. At any rate, it is a blog you can just jump into if you are into RPGs and become part of the team. The whole idea is merely to throw ideas around, so essentially, the only rule of conduct is this: you must be respectful of other people's ideas. Here's the link: http://www.rpgthoughts.blogspot.com drop by if you are interested.

Runescape, Computer I, and (of all things) My Game

I have been rather busy of late, US history has been trying to kill me, literally. At any rate, I have been introduced to a very nice game galled runescape. It is an internet game that you can get to by going to http://www.miniclip.com it should be the top game on the left. It takes a while to load, and a long time to play, (in fact, it doesn't really have an end) so anyone with limited time or a dial up connection would be in some large degree of boredom, but everyone else with free time, it is a great game.

I had Mrs. PC as a sub again today in two classes. My school is writing new curriculum, so all the smart regular teachers are offline, and all we have are really annoying lousy teachers, and people who apparently have never seen sigma notation... (I'm not actually in caculus, but I like to think I am.) at any rate, she apparently thought that she knew computers (one of the classes I had her for was Computer I: the worlds dumbest class) where she supposedly taught me how to auto fill boxes in Excel. I was, needless to say, aware of the procedure, and told her as much. Her revenge came in the form of making me help her with all the problems she didn't understand. Sneaking internet games and chat programs by her was a trick though.

The other thing I have been doing recently is game design. I have successfully designed one game that works marginally for about the first three levels, but falls apart after that. Surveys revealed that it was 100% successful, everyone that played it liked it. Unfortunately, they liked it a tad too much and came begging for more. Unfortunately some more, I am the only one who knows the game intimately enough to host the game, so I have never actually played my own game. I am in the progress of writing a second simpler (hopefully) more defined game (hopefully some more) and I am adding things I missed out in the first game, such as classes. So far I have cleric, dark cleric, mage, archer, swordsman, thief, assassin, pirate, and several other I have forgotten at the moment. Strangely enough, I can't think of a whole lot more. If you could post comments with class suggestions I would be much obliged.
