Imagine this. There’s a game. That one game that I’ve been anticipating since 2007. The one I’ve poured the vast majority of my free time and creativity into. The sequel to the game that consumed thousands of hours of my time and defined a period of my social life, my digital life. It’s a game [...]

A logo for Guru
I made a logo for the contest at Guild Wars 2 Guru. It strikes me as cheap that the winner is rewarded with something as meagre as a user title. A charr plushy seems more fitting considering that Guild Wars 2 Guru is owned by Curse, a corporation which owns many large community and resource [...]

I only like half of them
I won’t play ranger because I hate the idea of being forced to have pets. I won’t play thief because I’m not very good at skirmish-type combat. I probably won’t play engineer because the kits would overload my brain. I probably won’t play necromancer because I don’t like the green death vibe. I probably will [...]

You wanna see crazy!!!?
At this point in time I would like to do this to all the mesmer haters and doubters. Unfortunately this reality does not allow arcane bolts of energy, so instead I will burn your eyeballs with the new design of MESMER.me. Now that it’s arrived I’m rather lost for words. Prior to a few days [...]

WordPress Plugins I Recommend
I’ve been developing MESMER.me and I’d like to share some plugins that I’ve found useful, but you may not have heard of… Autoptimize and Quick Cache work together to speed up your site and ease the load on the server. I tried a few other plugins, including some that optimized and cached at the same time, but found [...]
MESMER.me be ready
A sick day and a surprisingly easy-to-work-with WordPress theme mean that I was able to complete MESMER.me and get it running online. I’ve started promoting the website. Curious to see if @GuildWars2 retweet my link. Investment: 3 days and $10.
United we dominate?
The latest iteration of a logo for MESMER.me Inspired by the logos on Logo Pond and the previously mentioned mesmer t-shirt. Motivated by all the chatter on the mesmer discussion thread and the necromancer, guardian and thief fansites. I’m just now realising that, if the mesmer is suddenly revealed, the fansite ought to be ready-to-go. [...]
“Give us the Mesmer” t-shirt
Samster from Deviant Art designed and printed a t-shirt with the above design on it, and wore it to the Eurogamer Expo, where she got this happy photograph with the ArenaNet staff! The full text is “Give us the mesmer and nobody gets dominated.” Go check out her full Deviant Art gallery, there’s heaps of great [...]

Sylvari boobies!
How could I miss the opportunity to add more pink to this pink and purple blog?! Pink Day in LA was a lot of fun last year, and I’ll try to make it to this one too. To quote Gaming World Entertainment Network and Gamers Giving Back: For one day, gamers from around the globe [...]

Saddle up
The mesmer will arrive, and I will make the definitive mesmer fansite. I’m waiting for confirmation of the 8th profession first. The oven is hot and my stomach is grumbling, but I’ll still not count my delicious chickens before they’re hatched. Now’s your chance to get in early and help construct the site from scratch. [...]
