If the title of today's blog doesn't give away which CCG I've been using cardnames from, I have no idea what will. I have been trying to blog for the past 2 days now... it didn't allow me to do so until today. Sometimes this thing has a mind of its own.
Well, I'll blog more when I get the time, but there's one thing I wanna get off my chest for the time being...
The Tournament. JC's original game. The one where I laid the groundwork. Well, something wasn't quite right with the code, so I spent 3 hours working on it, updating a lot of things and then uploaded it... Well, guess what, apparently I don't have permissions to modify it so I never got to upload it... and long story short, I essentially wasted 3 hours of my life. Urgh. That was yesterday, and it was a downer. Hopefully the file is still there on the other PC... but somehow I highly doubt it since it was saved on the cache directory where I knew it'd be deleted. Well, I'll have to find out on Monday whether I have to start work from scratch...
In other news, ToJH and Frank's Zoo went public a few days ago, bringing up the total public games to 63 or something like that. Good times all around I guess. Oh and the Portable Adventures Beta announcement was also made sometime within the last week. Which is good.
On the LotR front, Decipher is doing a few weird things and it's almost funny to see what they are doing... it's almost amateurish. They probably would have singlehandedly driven away some of the players with the antics of the past three months or so, and I'm guessing that they are hoping that the new changes (rotation and new minion cultures being the major ones) would entice more players to the game. Somehow I doubt it though... the prize support isn't as good as VS or MTG and there's no more movie to pull in new gamers. We'll have to see what happens.
On a lighter note, I discovered a "new" online only CCG that's free... well, sorta. It's gToons from Cartoon Network. It's driven by shockwave and the game pieces remind me more of POGs rather than cards. Oh well. The game is simple and apparently someone from White Wolf or associated with White Wolf designed it, but don't let the simple game fool you, the strategy behind the game can get rather complicated. The biggest plus I have discovered? It's cool to have Superman next to the Power Puff Girls while being beaten by Ed, Edd and Eddy! It's a riot.
