The regularly scheduled blogging has been postponed.

As a special announcement, for my 400th entry, I'm here to tell you my Xbox Live subscription fell out of the sky and I am about to activate it.

Some of you (who read my blog) have already sent me requests to connect online. That's cool. I'm willing to play online with anybody. I'd especially like to connect with people to play: Uno, Burnout Revenge, Gauntlet, Perfect Dark Zero (Co-op missions), and SmashTV.

For those who are interested in playing I usually follow a few guidelines for your enjoyment and mine:

* I come to play games, not to compete for a championship title.

* If something about my play style bothers you, please share. Don't leave me negative feedback without being mature enough to let me know I'm doing something bothersome.

* I may lose, but I try to be a good sport. Forgive me if I get a bit animated. Don't worry I won't swear or anything.

* If you lose, please don't take it personally. I'll happily play again if we can both be good sports.

* I may be over 21, but I really don't enjoy listening to harsh language. Yeah, you know the words. Nothing will get you dumped from my friends list faster than words I don't want my daughter to hear in our home.

* Sometimes I just want the points. If you want to get points too, let's talk. I'm happy to work out a deal. This is particularly true for DoA4.

* I enjoy playing, but I am on a family channel due to family constraints. I also have school, work, and some other responsibilities I need to cover. If I need to go, I promise to give notice and not randomly disconnect.

* If I disconnect, please assume it was a faulty connection. I have no intention of disconnecting if a competitive match is not going the way I want. I am happy to play a make-up match in the event I know my connection was at fault.

If you are interested in playing, feel free to send me an invite.
