Bah...another of those chain-letter tag blog things again, courtesy of
The Podnosticator. You know, when I'm done here, I think I'll track this one back to it's source and have a Very Stern Word with them about attention seeking. Anyway, I'm afraid of curses, misfortune and ill-fated happenstance, so here's my five things:
Five Reasons That I Blog:
1) I have a terrible..thing....you know...that you use to remember stuff with, so it helps to write stuff down.
2) For reasons that are far too complicated to go into right now, if I drop below two thousand words a week, this blog will explode, taking everything else in the same intertube with it! Presumably there were to be some other demands to go with this rather bizarre hostage situation - directions and instructions involving black plastic bags full of small-denomination used bank notes and the like, but so far nothing forthcoming. With any luck, Keanu Reeves will be along to take over the typing soon. Bonus points if you can spot when the changeover has happ...Woah! Dude! I'm on the innernet! Excellent!
3) This blog is more than it seems, and is in fact a method of communicating military intelligence information to the Alien Mothership hidden behind your moon, in preparation for invasion! While impressed by your Magical Powers and effective use of Swords to defeat this 'Orc' lesser species on a regular basis, you will find your primitive weapons no match for
our superior intellects, puny Hu-mans! Gak-gak-gak!
4) The Voices Tell Me To. I have no idea why they do this, but I have noticed that if you cross-reference each post with that day's 00:48
Shipping Forecast, on BBC Radio 4 Longwave, the resulting decyphered text, when viewed in a mirror, becomes an entire missing chapter of
The DaVinci Code, by Dan Brown! Creepy!
5) According to
The Great Man, I am an Explorer. There are many and complex reasons for this, and deep and involved aspects of psychology behind the observation, the measurement and analysis of the various types of MMO gamer, but on the whole, these can be distilled down to "If you spend more time writing about games than playing them, you may not be Raid Material."
And as usual, no onward tagging, because if we keep this kind of nonsense up, the internet will soon be full!
