With full "pups" to Wilhelm Arcturus for inspiring the title of this post, I greet you, Dear Reader, on this auspicious occasion. As of this post—strangely enough, my first of the year—I have been blogging about MMOs for over a tenth of my life. It's honestly a bit of a surprise.
I played quite a few games this year: EverQuest 2, Landmark, The Elder Scrolls Online, WildStar, a return to Rift and Guild Wars 2. And, of course, The Secret World. Some were played more consistently than others. And at my side in each has been my lovely bride, Scooter.
I haven't been particularly consistent with IHTtS, either. Some months I blogged every day, or nearly so. Others, I barely posted at all. I would like to post more regularly this year. Thank you, Dear Reader, for joining me on this journey. And here's to many more miles together.

Given the image, I feel this was a missed opportunity to give Wilhelm many 'pups'.
ReplyDeleteStill a noob indeed ...
You are totally correct. In my defense, it was a long day.
DeleteThere, fixed it. :)
DeleteNOOB NO MORE!
DeleteI'm also still a noob: what is IHTtS?
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your blogging anniversary. I hope for many more years to come!
The initials for this blog: I Have Touched the Sky! (-:
DeleteCongrats Rowan, I hope for at least five more!
What he said. And thanks to both of you. :)
DeleteOh no, now I really feel like a HUGE noob. Surely I should've been able to guess this one. >.<
DeleteI think we're all still noobs. I'm on my second major blog project, and have been doing this since 2008-ish. And I still have no real idea what I'm doing. Glad to know it's not just me! ;)
ReplyDeleteCongrats, buddy!
Thanks, Prof! Do people actually call you that?
DeleteHappy bloggaversary Rowan! seems a 5 for many of us this year :)
ReplyDelete(and my blog is still called Raging Monkeys on your blogroll, hehe ;))
Your Blogger profile still has it that way. I think it was in there with both titles, but I got rid of Raging Monkeys. :) And thanks. :D
ReplyDeleteHappy Blogging anniversary :) 5 years, wow :D I am closing in on 1 year now, can't believe it's almost gone a year already!
ReplyDeleteHey, before you know it, you'll be hitting five years. :-)
Delete"The second you stop being a noob is the second that you give up." - some ancient philosopher, probably.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on 5 years, man! :)
Thanks. I feel like I'll always be a noob at this.
