And now that I think of it, I should make that the title to this post.<\/p>\n<p>1) Our very own Mumbles has begun a blog, which she has thoughtfully placed on the internet where people can <a href=\"http:\/\/digitalmumbles.com\/\">read it<\/a>. People such as yourself. This means that 75% of the Spoiler Warning crew is now enbloggened. <a href=\"http:\/\/digitalmumbles.com\/\">Mumbles<\/a> does it. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.chocolatehammer.org\/\">Rutskarn<\/a> does it.  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.shamusyoung.com\/twentysidedtale\">I<\/a> does it. But I have it on good authority that Josh will not be joining our proud cult of rambling blog-makers. But if he does start one, I strongly encourage him to name it &#8220;STOP SHOOTING ME DOT COM&#8221;. Just saying.<\/p>\n<p>2) Gratitude and thanks to the benefactor who provided a graphics card for me. It&#8217;s a Radeon HD 5670. And for those of you who like the acronym stuff: <em>1GB 128-bit DDR5 PCIE 2.0 x16 HDCP with Crossfire who am I kidding nobody reads this crap.<\/em> I was going to take some pictures of it, but I had work that needed to get done, and so I put it to work straight away.  However, the card is red, which is what counts.<\/p>\n<p>3) Stolen Pixels is on hiatus. This might be a long-ish one. I&#8217;ll come back to it when I can. <\/p>\n<p>4) Work stopped on <a href=\"?p=9644\">Project Hex<\/a> while I worked on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/drawntoknowledge\">Drawn to Knowledge<\/a>. We&#8217;ll hopefully get back to that after the holidays. For the last three years I&#8217;ve worked huge overtime over the holidays, and so I mean to make the most of this one. <\/p>\n<p>5) Not so much an announcement as a question: I have discovered the fun of playing Horde side in WoW.  I had the idea of leveling an Orc in the Blood Elf area, because that would be funny. But I couldn&#8217;t for the life of me figure out how to get there. I thought I&#8217;d go take a zeppelin, but none seem to go to Silvermoon.  I thought to run there, but the Western Plaguelands are basically impassible at level 1.  I&#8217;m sure you can get there, but it would be hours of corpse-running.  Now that I think of it, I hardly ever see any non-elves in Eversong Woods. I&#8217;m guessing that you just can&#8217;t get there until you&#8217;ve got the levels to make the run? Or am I missing some alternate route?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rather than answer a dozen emails, let me do a kind of announcement roundup thing.
