All writing needs an audience, even if that audience consists of a single person. However a blog can’t make due with just one reader, and luckily I don’t have to. Despite my general inactivity and the fact that I’m still fumbling with this art a few people have stumbled over this site in the past weeks. So if you’ll bear with me I intend to play an early round of Search Term Bingo. I don’t have much to choose from yet, but I’m still fascinated by what brought people here. Call me inexperienced.

arx fatalis god mode

I’m not sure arx fatalis even has one of those, but I hear some crazy shit will happen if you spell the word max using the magic function. Glad I could help.

I know you were likely looking for the St. Patrick’s Day episode, but just think about the big picture here: Neil Patrick Harris playing the Riddler. Fun fact: He was actually offered that part when Nolan started working on The Dark Knight Rises. Harris turned him down stating that he would break the film, since audiences would root for him. Nolan refused to let somebody else play that part and rewrote the script. True Story. Also, it’s Stinson, not Stintson.

the bro code

I see you are in the kind of prickly situation that requires guidance from the holy script. Of course I can’t relay the entire script here, so I’m taking a guess as to what your problem exactly is.

Article 59: A Bro must always post bail for another Bro, unless it’s out of state or, like, crazy expensive.

When bail is crazy expensive?  Crazy expensive Bail > (Years you’ve been Bro’s) x $100.

I hope that helped.

Pick the Malkavian. Seriously, pick the Malkavian.

first person perspective mirros edge

Yes, Mirror’s Edge is played in first person perspective. Does that answer your question?

Odd, you might actually have found what you were looking for. No wait, I’m responsible for this one.

Back on Track

Moving my reviews over here to have them archived took a little longer than I expected. Partly because it took me a while to figure out the best way to move the script over here without having to redo the entire BB-Code and links, but mostly because the task is ultimately about as engaging as repeatedly slamming my head on my desk. It’s done now and the experience made me realize a few things:

The word’s spelled definitely, not definetely. I need to get this into my head. Also, I need to start actually using possessive case properly.

Doing something mundane never takes as long as you think when you first look at it. Just throw yourself right in.

Fast-paced, upbeat and completely batshit music surprisingly helps me stay focused. On the other hand I’ve now got Caramell Dansen stuck in my head.

I don’t know why, but a specific string of code keeps appearing in my posts after previewing or saving them. For the record I’ll publish it this time: qtl { position: absolute; border: 1px solid #cccccc; -moz-border-radius: 5px; opacity: 0.2; line-height: 100%; z-index: 999; direction: ltr; } qtl:hover,qtl.open { opacity: 1; } qtl,qtlbar { height: 22px; } qtlbar { display: block; width: 100%; background-color: #cccccc; cursor: move; } qtlbar img { border: 0; padding: 3px; height: 16px; width: 16px; cursor: pointer; } qtlbar img:hover { background-color: #aaaaff; } qtl>iframe { border: 0; height: 0; width: 0; } qtl.open { height: auto; } qtl.open>iframe { height: 200px; width: 300px; }.

I’m not entirely happy with the pingback/trackback situation on the Niche Appeal page, though right now I don’t know how to improve it.

The format of my reviews doesn’t exactly work well with the current layout of the blog. I’ll make sure it suits the blog next time, which might mean that the format on The Escapist will change drastically. The pre-review spoilerbox nonsense will be reduced to bare minimum and I’ll have to rework whatever ideas I had for there into full-blown blog posts (that’s what that section was always about anyway). I’ll probably stop inlining my images as well.

While we’re on that note, I need to stop checking how the BlueInkAlchemist solved the problems I’m facing right now.

I need more links to fill the sidebar. I can think of a few people who I’d like to put there, but I don’t really want to link them without contacting them, and I don’t want to contact them before I put this thing into working order. Suggestions would not go amiss though.

Is my text too greyish?
