Fortune Favors

As some of you know I recently got my account hacked. Do not got to any sites that ask for your account login info example. (www.usblizzard-worldofwarcraft.net), even if they do look like Blizzards site.  All they want you to do is login so they can have your account name and password.  I think the easiest way to protect your account is to buy the  Blizzard Authenticator (http://www.blizzard.com/store/browse.xml?f=c:6) or download the BattleNet Authenticator, (only for those with an iphone or ipod touch).  If you download it the Authenticator is free from the  apple app store.  I hope this helps everyone better secure their account.  If you have questions about the Authenticator http://us.blizzard.com/support/article.xml?locale=en_US&articleId=26109

And I didn’t put it here.  Instead, it’s been posted over on Klinderas’ blog as a guest post while he packs up and heads home from college.

Be sure to check out the rest of his blog and leave some comments if you like what you see.  And if you’re here because you clicked on the link on his site, …. you poor poor fools!

No, seriously – glad to have you here. 

… she just earned this achievement:

Have your own achievement you want to send me?  Send it along to splat (at) myguildhome.com and I’ll post it here for all to see.

C’mon, you know you want to.  Email me your best creations (splat [at] myguildhome.com) and I’ll post’em here, too.

It’s more of an in joke than anything else, but … well … here.  See for yourself.

That’s right, the 2 people in my fan club can now get shirts that proclaim as much.  /shrug.

This was kind of fun to make, though.  Maybe I should try creating a few more that actually have a chance to sell.

Today on a whim I made some 1,000 Blank White Cards.

1kBWC, as it’s often abbreviated, is a fun, free game that does NOT actually involve 1,000 cards.  It was named for a box of blank flash cards, as memory serves.

The rules of the game are pretty simple, starting with making up a bunch of silly little cards out of 3″x5″ blank index cards that you’ve cut in half.  The coolest thing about the game (in my opinion), is that when you’re done making the deck you throw some blank cards in there as well.  That way, you’re actually still making the game as you play it.  It’s still balanced, since everyone else has the same opportunity.  Especially if you have a house rule or two about making “I win the game!” cards.

Anyway, if it sounds like something you’d want to try, the rules and history of the game are here, some sample cards are here (might not all be kid friendly), and my own contributions are below.  Enjoy.

Is this something you’d like to see more of?  Have your own ideas for cards?  Let me know in the comments or email me at splat [at] myguildhome.com!
