I’ve been rather quiet as things have been overly hectic over in the physical side of the world.

You know, at this point, if Bellsouth would upgrade the wiring in my neighborhood, I’d be a DSL business subscriber right now. Long and short of it, they’ve failed to make at least five appointments already, and my business account has been unreliable for two weeks now. Details are behind the cut.
Chess Game Summary February 10, 2009
Posted by erroch in Chess, Games.1 comment so far
I’ve been playing a lot of chess lately. Some games I’ve won, some I’ve lost to horrific blunders, some I’ve lost due to my loving son moving for me. I’m just going to record some of the non-child blunder ones here for my future reference. Pretty much this is everything that didn’t get cut short for one reason or another. All of these were over the “Chess with Friends” app for the iPhone.
Yeah, I know I’ve let this thing slide…. January 30, 2009

Working two jobs will do that to a fellow. Anyway, there’s been a lot more chess games, and the WoW UI revamp has been done and done again, so I need to post something about it.
Additionally, I had my web server die on me, which has messed with things more then I can say.

And the game continues. Pieces finally coming to threaten other pieces. Still very much taking our time here, but that’s the joy of these games. I’m seeing a few potential outcomes from this, either Veras goes aggressive, which leads us to a rather traditional game for a queen’s gambit, or continues to develop ignoring the threat, since they’re both protected pieces.

Redoing the WoW UI. November 9, 2008

I’ve had the same basic UI for a bit over a year now in WoW, it’s about time I tweak it a little. Here’s where I’m at now:
It’s not bad, somewhat clean but it is a bit off center.
Goals of this reworking of the UI:
-
As clean of a UI as possible without sacrificing functionality.
-
A UI that works for both DPS and Healing in Raid and Group situations.
-
Allow the majority of the UI to either turn off, or be non intrusive while RPing.
-
Cut the 40 or so mods I am running to a more manageable number.
-
Evaluate replacement mods for ones that have been used just because they’ve always been there.

I think I’m going to just record these after Veras makes his moves. It’ll be a bit less cumbersome for you all. Not much to say on this one at the time since I haven’t spent much time analyzing it. Either way, there she is.

So a friend of mine from World of Warcraft and I have decided to amuse ourselves with a play by mail game of chess. This isn’t the first time we’ve done this, though last time resulted in my resigning due to outside influences.
Anyhow, the game is only a few moves in, but I figure I’ll record it here, just to keep track of how things go and to share them with the world.
