Veterans' Blood Tournament

Greetings, gents! If you wish to sign up for the Veterans' Blood Tournament, then take note that the deadline for doing so is July 13th, on a Friday.

As posted by Frozn here:

Tournament Rules:

1v1 Arena - First to 15 wins. Championship match will be 2 matches, 1 on each division's server.
Match location (US): [ToR - Mosh Pit]
Match location (EU): Possibly Er. Arena?
Server version: RuneHOV 1.07 Windows + 1.09 Mod
Security / AntiCheat: I will freshly build a unique version of the 1.09 mod per match to reduce the risk of cheating, server crashing, and other dip-shit-ery. This will ensure no bytehack can be done before the game.
Restrictions: None, unless the 2 fighters agree to special terms (such as no shields) before the map.
Spectating: Any player slots not used should be open for spectators, but spectators must obey the rules.
Deadlines: Once a match has been arranged, both fighters must complete the match within 14 days.

"1.07 was chosen because not everyone has bought Rune Classic. If both players have 1.10 and would prefer a 1.10 match this can also be arranged. Let the admins of your division server know ahead of time."

I Like This Room...

I like this room, and its use of space. I'll have to keep it in mind for the house that I'll eventually design...

RUNE Classic released on Steam

"The classic Viking third-person hack-and-slash melee action game is now available on Steam. This release, known as Rune Classic, contains the original Rune content, plus the multiplayer expansion pack Halls of Valhalla. Experience an exciting single player storyline where you thwart Loki and his minions from bringing Ragnarok to Midgard that will keep you entertained for hours. Eat meat and lizards, drink mead, as survival food. Call upon the power of the gods to enchant your weapon with Rune powers.

* New enemies added.
* Some levels have been redesigned for more enjoyable play.
* Experience multiplayer in vicious, fun "up close and personal" melee action with swords, maces, hammers and axes (or your opponent's head or arm).
* Includes Deathmatch, Team Deathmatch, Arena and Headball.
* Over 35 multiplayer and singleplayer levels.
* All the music tracks from the game and the original audio CD will be available as part of this release in OGG format."

RUNE Classic on Steam!

"Also as announced earlier this week by Laurie "the DeepMinded" Wise, RuneGame.com Goddess/Administrator, Human Head is requesting server hosts to contact them for prep information regarding MP. Server hosters should contact them at runeclassicsupport@ninerealms.net. The new Steam 1.10 version includes a "compatability mode" to allow Rune 1.07 players to join 1.01 servers, which means the game basically needs to be restarted to allow the new executables to reload original packages."

So What Am I Up To Now?

So you might be wondering....what's el Saco Lambo up to now? Well, I just finished Final Exams, and got my grades for the semester. It looks like I did reasonably well, and will be returning to college in the Fall. What else? Well, my father and I will be moving. After dear old Mom passed away last year, we've decided to get a fresh start, so we'll be moving soon. We can't pay for two mortgages, so we have to move out. It blows, but what can you do?

What else? Well, I'll soon be seeing a Physical Therapist. I've had yet another injury over the past year, and I'm hoping they can help me to soothe my lower back pain. The doctor said that it isn't too serious (and is correctable), so I'm looking forward to PT, and solving this problem once and for all. I haven't been to the gym in two months, so it's time for some action!

Also, you guys might notice that my forum has been inactive. Don't sweat it. I've been so busy with school and with the stress of moving, that the forum just wasn't that important. This is why I love blogs. There's no pressure to update everything every fifteen minutes. Anyway, the forum is merely an experiment, since I wanted the opportunity to familiarize myself with the forum software, though I couldn't have created the forum without Frozn's assistance. Thanks, man!

In any case, have no fear, guys. I'll be keeping the blog semi-regularly updated, and try to keep the forum spam-free, for those that ever need to post something. Anyway....more to come soon.

Final Exams

So I'm studying for Final Exams, and I'm going stir-crazy here. I seriously wonder if I have some form of adult ADD. It is so ridiculously hard to just sit here, and study. I want to run around outside or play computer games. Or sleep. Anything but this. I guess I just have to suck it up, as it's only a few more days before summer vacation. C'est la vie...

Thor's Goats

..............Here's a pic I saw online of Thor's goats, and I rather like it.
