HL2 & Ep1 Giveaway Concluded

March 17th, 2008 · 14 Comments · Blather

The two winners have been contacted and their free games have been sent.  Congratulations to whoever they were.  They were chosen at random by this dice-rolling thingie.  Flattery did not play a part.
So, if you’re still sitting there hopeful that you might have won, you didn’t.  You lost.  You’re a loser.  However, from looking at […]

March 16th, 2008 · 12 Comments · 1Fort Server Stuff

Server info is at the top of the sidebar.  Still don’t have any admin stuff working yet, but feel free to play.  I have six maps up, 3 CP and 3 CTF.  Have fun, and hopefully I’ll have some time this week to configure the server a bit.

1Fort Server & Gift Giveway News

March 14th, 2008 · 15 Comments · 1Fort Server Stuff, Gaming

Well, the 1Fort server is up and appears to work, but for whatever reason I am unable to admin it from inside the game. My rcon_password just doesn’t work, and I haven’t really had time to get into it with tech support. I’ll see if I can get it straightened out by next […]

Massive Crits

March 14th, 2008 · 4 Comments · Gaming

So, my friend Joe started a new gaming blog called Massive Crits. This is good. Whereas I buy and play maybe two different games a year, Joe seems to be playing something new every week, from first-person shooters to… well, I assume there are probably other types of games besides first-person shooters. […]

Doom, Doom

March 14th, 2008 · 4 Comments · Gaming

RPS reports that Lord of the Rings Online will be opening Moria.
Y’know, I played LOTRO for maybe a month or so.  I liked it enough.  MMOs aren’t really my thing — I don’t care for the click-n-hope combat, the endless chores, and the limited soloing — but I enjoyed running around Middle Earth, looking for […]

TF2 Finger Poser: Thumbs Up!

March 13th, 2008 · 12 Comments · Posing

I just tried out the finger poser in the Garry’s Mod beta. It’s awesome.
Keep in mind two things when you look at the following screenshots: I’ve never used the finger poser before, not even on the HL2 ragdolls, and I spent roughly two minutes posing each of these. So, they’re a bit […]

In case you missed it, there’s something new and exciting available through Steam!
No, not all those Atari games, including 80 arcade and home classics like Asteroids and Adventure for less than $20.
It’s Worldwide Soccer Manager 2008!
That’s right! Now you can join the excitement of not playing soccer but managing it through a series of […]

Oblivingston’s Obliviblog

March 12th, 2008 · 9 Comments · Blather, Gaming

Well, I couldn’t find anything I wanted blog about today, so I went and added another entry to Living In Oblivion.  It’s Day Seven.
Thanks, by the way, for all the encouragement to continue that blog, because I’m really having run writing up his non-adventures.  Writing, for me, only comes in two flavors: fun or unbearably […]
