“Developed by an airline instead of an airforce”
That’s a brilliant way of putting it!

I think you did a great job selling it.

I got tired of all the standard “save the universe every 15 pages” stories and wanted to write a book that explored what the lives of just regular people would be link in the 24th century if the Universe were developed by an airline instead of an air force.

The result is this series.

Thanks for taking the time to write about it!

Hi Jeremiah, and so sorry it took this long for your comment to appear. For some reason it got stuck by the spam filter…

The game is really quite fun – played it a third time and managed to bury the totem with the last card of the deck!

Thank you for your kind words.

Thanks for checking out the game, I’m very glad you liked it. Thanks for the review, too.

And I really like the graphic of your play, nice job putting that together.

Well, this seems little like Monopoly and Seattlers of Catan combined, i think i’ll give it a chance. And if it’s good enough, i think some online matches would not be impossibility :)

Comment on Superstar by Mosse

Hi Mary,

Being a lifelong eager friend of a proper sauna, and enjoying a good vodka occasionally (although I prefer a whisky) I had never paired them with “manly” either… I actually don’t remember my answer to that particular question, other than the fact that I had an involved but short inner battle whether or not to hang up on the infantile unprofessional sorry excuse for a journalist. I didn’t. Maybe I should have?

I believe, per definition, a woman who enjoyes a sauna to be refered to as “hot” and a friend of a good vodka “smooth”. ;-)

Congratulations on your brush with superstardom. Can’t wait to hear how it went on your next post.

As an aside, I didn’t realize that sauna and vodka were “manly”. What does that make a woman who partakes of these things? ;)

Thank you for your kind words Mosse. Sorry to hear about the bad stuff. I'm nowhere near that right now, running free on google et al as I currently do. And as for why RD/KA! was unknown to you? The web is vast and growing and we are but motes, like dust in sunlight. ;)

Hi JMcL63, I'm sorry for the inconvenience with the transfer of the site. I was having some trust-issues with my former ISP, and instead of going for a long battle to regain the domain-name I found it easier to just get a new one and start fresh. I'm glad you've found me again, though - give my thanks to Yehuda! Your blog seems very fun, I've added it to my RSS-reader - can't believe I haven't run across it before...

So, I've finally caught up with you again! I was a regular reader for some time at your old address and have only today found your new address thanks to Yehuda. Meanwhile, in the spirit of Gratuitous Self Advertisment, here's the story of the time I played Snow Trails with co-designer Gordon Lamont, who I know from DiceCon, Scotland's boardgames convention. I hope you like it. Welcome back! ;)

Comment on Digg the Digi by Chride

Hey!

I’ve never been to any exhibition except the occacional annual boat exhibitions (Venemessut) but this year a small, but potent, idea crept into my brain: go to the DigiExpo. So after reading your post I checked their website and what do you know, today (1.11) was the last day of the Expo (I didn’t realize it was just a weekend show) and I’m at work! Darn it! :)

Anyway, since there are basically three exhibitions at Messukeskus simultaneously, the size of DigiExpo is probably much smaller in contrast to other exhibitions..? And how much of the scene is focused on presentation of new innovations and gimmicks vs. small items selling stands?

Cheers.

I’ve had some contact at work with tablets and one thing I’ve noticed on everyone of them is the poor quality of the display. I couldn’t work with one for more than an hour before my eyes hurt.
Last I tried was about a year ago so they might have gotten better since but I doubt it.

My favourite one of all time of those that I’ve had the pleasure to recieve; “Do you want a rocket in your pants?” … well … not really.

I don´t know the first thing about making websites (blogs or any other kind). But Väsyneen Lanssarin Päiväkirja was born over three years ago, it has a lot of traffic and it works like the toilet on a train. OK, the old kind of train where the shit falls down on the tracks… ;-)

Comment on The Many Faces of Windows by Mats

Mats — Wed, 16 Sep 2009 21:21:08 +0000

Windows 7 is a great OS. I've been using it on my Lenovo since the Beta stages and got the final installed two weeks ago.
The only thing so far that I found messed up the OS was F-Secure client. It slows the computer down A LOT and I even had issues with the VPN tunnel. Enjoy your new computer

(ye gods, I failed the Turing-test)

Anyways, Trackmania looks like a hoot. I'll definitely check it out once I get home from the, uuh, stuga. I believe they'll frown upon me dl:ing and installing games here at work.

Comment on Zombies on Steam by Mosse

Does this mean mr. Karell is using Steam?
What does he play on Steam?
Under what pseudonym?

Comment on Zombies on Steam by Jan Karell

Actually you can play steam games offline. Steam has an “offline mode” which lets you play all the downloaded games without an internet connection.

Of course if/when Steam goes out of business the whole deal with changing computers and being able to redownload your game based on your account will go away.
