    Player Chronicle -- Posted on Nov 12 2008

    Alright, I've got a few gaming-related items on my mind, but none of them constitute their own Chronicle, so by combining them all together, I shall have a nice little entry here Very Happy

    Alright, first of all, I'm embarking on my 100th Chronicle. It's a personal achievement that I'm about to make, but I'm having a hard time thinking about what the Century Chronicle should be about?! Any idea?

    Second, Zach/RyuBlitz and I are moving forward with our idea of building a few arcade machines. He's looking at a stand one, but I'm thinking of sticking to the classics and rolling with a cocktail/tabletop version. Look for more details on that soon.

    Next, during lunch I was talking with Tony/Changed Earth and he was telling me about the latest MMO game he was attacking. As a big fan of Maple Story, he enjoys the Japanese video games and shared that he attended an in-game wedding last night! lol...I'm sorry, but that's just hilarious and almost a bit weird.

    Continuing on, tonight is GoG Game Night and I'm having some people over again to enjoy it. We're going to rock some Guitar Hero: World Tour to commemorate last week's Massive event in NYC, but I'm also going to check out Gears of War 2 AND Call of Duty: World at War! Should be an evening of good times and a great chance to see a few of these new hot titles. It'll also be nice to play the game we got so into during last week's GH:WT tournament, but didn't really play much of because we were running the show, haha.

    Real quick...the highlight video from NYC is almost done, so look for that on the MassiveNYC Event very soon Wink

    Next, I'm still pretty pumped about this video game community project winning BOTH Iowa Web Awards we were nominated for! The 2008 awards were presented to GoG for "Best Community Website" and "Best Community Developer". There are a lot people to thank for allowing this to happen, but I'll leave the forum conversation as the main hub for that discussion. Here it is, in case you're wondering: www.GatheringofGamers.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=1234

    Lastly...uh oh...I don't have anything else...hmmmm...alright, here's something to finish this fine Chronicle off!

    Coming up in December, we've been invited to a local event in Chicago called the Winter Wonder LAN. The invite comes from a connection we made at MLG Dallas and will be hosted by Status Quo. Aorund 30 top MLG pros are going to be there, such as players from Breaking Point and Chilled Reality, so it should be a great time and a good chance to share GoG. I have a feeling there will be little sleep, but I also know I need to freshen up on my Halo 3 skills so I don't have to hide in a corner throwing grenades at these MLG pros! More details on that as it gets closer I'm sure as well.

    Uh oh...I have one more thing for this Chronicle, and that is to thank Team Foxy and welcome all their new members we've seen joining us lately! It's great to increase the female population around this growing community and all those girls are fun to chat with, but even better to have on your Halo 3 team!


    ALRIGHT...GoG Chronicle #99 is complete.
