The Daily PWN - The PWN Continues



All right, Mr Belvedere. This interview was an interesting one to get, I've been associated with GOHA since it was in Season 2 and I've done a lot of work with them, captaining a side in the 3rd Season, Commissionaire of The Euro League in the 5th Season, Designer of Hockey Jerseys for both the Euro League and an All Star event. I've known Jack longer than 90% of my friends lists. He was best man at my wedding and he's an awesome guy.

GOHA is one of the easiest sports to pick up in Second Life and conversely one of the hardest to master. There are levels of play and teamwork and tactics just like in the real world. With them currently expanding the league and working alongside Linden Labs with the Community Partnership Programme we thought it was the ideal time to interview the creator of the game.

This is the return of "Auggie Cam" yes, my camera is the medium shot of Jack Belvedere staring intimidatingly at you :).

The other part of this show? Well that was handled with fits of giggles between myself and Matt, we're absolutely serious professionals when it comes to a take. But sometimes Matt's tangents can be insane and I feel it's my job to keep him on message. That said anyone who can hear us singing during breaks would run screaming. We're not entering American Idol anytime soon. Our rendition of "Still Alive" from the Portal game is...well it's definitely something.

reBlog from dailypwn.com: The Daily PWN

I found this fascinating quote today:



We’ve come a long way since then. Hyperballoid HD on the Playstation Network is the latest take on the classic genre. The game is simple, destroy bricks, keep the ball bouncing, collect power ups and jewels and avoid power downs. Addictive fun, right? Wrong!dailypwn.com, The Daily PWN, May 2010



You should read the whole article.

The Daily PWN - Millionaire, Mario, Memory and Metaverse Music | Treet TV

Time & Tide

The kids have their shop, Honeybee and I have a project coming up and then there's furniture and GOHA (Honeybee's stuff) Snail Racing and The Daily PWN (My stuff) and you begin to wonder if there is time to be a family any more.

Well the truth is scheduling can be a nightmare, in fact, scheduling is probably the wrong word for the family chaos.  But we strive to see each other as much as possible and on Sunday night, all of us were online.  So what did we do to celebrate such an awesome occasion?  Why get the family Spring Summer Portrait done ofcourse!

Yes there were pouts and shenanigans and tears before bedtime and all that...but honestly, I wouldn't have traded it for the world.

Relay For Life - Giant Snail Racing


Relay For Life...
A massively good cause which RacerX Gullwing supports in his own inimitable style.  How does he support the American Cancer Society and make it fun for people?  Giant Snail Cross Country Race!!

Like a Marathon for the Giant Snail community the Cross Country Race pits 45 foot snail against 45 foot snail across 60 sims in a battle of endurance and grid stability.

The actual sight of a large number of snails racing down the roads of mainland sims in Second Life is a sight to behold for passers by and the carnival feeling of it will bring smiles to both the young and the old.

And again it's for a good cause...
You can be involved with the Giant Snail Cross Country Race in more ways than one, you can either race (the next event is on April 17th and you can get your scarves at Aborholm, Abitibi in Second Life)  There are different scarves available and they will ultimately place you on different sims at the start of the race.


There is something new this time, for those who don't feel up to a marathon race dressed as a giant snail..

Here is the way you can be involved without having to be a snail.

You can sponsor a snail

The sponsor would pledge so many L$ on a snail for each sim they went through. Depending on the place of the snail at the finish of the race the amount would be more.

for example

10th or below.......1L$ per sim,
9th...........................2L$,
8th...........................3L$,
7th...........................4L$, ect. to 1st place where the amount would be 10 L per sim for a maximum donation of 600L for the 60 sim race.

So I'm looking for sponsors...IM me in world if you would like to sponsor me through the race...Again, I can't stress how much this is for a good cause, a few L$'s might mean very little to you, but every little helps.

if you try...cry...why...

and maybe I've been trying too long to see the light at the end of this tunnel, maybe I've lost so much that anything I hold dear to becomes sacred.  Maybe you were not the one for me.

I chuckle at the thought of the good times, I cry at the thought of the bad times but I remember all those times and the in between times and I'll remember the love forever.  I'll remember your voice forever, forevermore.

maybe now maybe never maybe once maybe forever maybe you should give yourself a pat on the back maybe you should cry yourself to sleep maybe I should be more understanding maybe I should be less understanding maybe I should care more or care less maybe I should be stronger or weaker or more stubborn or less stubborn maybe this was a doomed ride from the outset and we were just passengers of fate and maybe this didn't mean anything to you but I felt every emotion and now I feel like crying, dying and fading
