Life's taken me to many places this year and as of late, the places it's taken me have been nothing but the best. However, these past few days, I've diverged to an area I've not been to with any level of genuine enthusiasm in several years: the world of Pokémon.

So, I play video games.

Another surprise from last night's video game news. We're getting a video game for Blade, the vampire hunter of the Marvel Universe.

From the same studio who gave us "Dishonored" and "Deathloop". I'd like to think that this means the Daywalker is in good hands.

One year ago today, I decided to share the cards I made of the Season 4 premiere. As such, this seems like the perfect time to provide a quick and easy way to access everything that's resulted since. The following is a hyperlinked rundown of every Friendship is Card Games blog, both those written and those yet to come. If you don't see something here, either I haven't gotten to it yet, or I've been a bit lazy in updating this particular blog. Feel free to yell at me about that if it isn't a

I've come to the realization that the marketing team behind the show has to cut the showrunners slack. Between teaser trailers and merchandise, the fandom's ability to enjoy the show itself is being damaged.

Welcome all to the second part of the OC Hunger Games! Now not only will this blog reveal the last winners of round two, but it will also detail the next challenge that was actually inspired by one of the contestants' stories and an idea that a contestant shared with me. But right now, let's focus on the winners of Round 2

Last time it was revealed that JumpingShinyFrogs, Crescent Blade, and Smaug the Golden were the winners of the round. Joining them is... Wait, breaking news folks!

Due to family reasons, I'm away from my computer and forced to write this with my phone. So I'll keep this short and sweet.

Now I have some good news, as a thank you to those who are still in the competition, you all get a day off tomorrow. But on Monday, it's back to business.

Anyway, here's the results to round 3. Another thing is this round will only have one person eliminated. With that, let's begin.

The rain hissed down like a nest of snakes, a good match for this city. The only ponies you can trust here are the ones who’ve helped you fire rainbow friendship lasers, and Celestia knows those are few and far between. This is a dirty city, and there’s a mare here who has a thing about cleanliness. She’s trouble, but all dames are. Let’s investigate.

Here's a litmus test to see how long someone's watched the show and/or how well they know the fandom.

See if they get this joke.

I did say I was going to review Friendship Games, didn't I? My bad. I meant to, but studies piled up quick with the extra hours at work, plus a few personal events, kept that from happening. To put it simply, Friendship Games was okay. Not abysmal like the first film, but not quite as awesome as Rainbow Rocks. My main peeves are the lacking screentime for the Shadowbolts and the ending (Geez, Twi, reconcile with your squad at CP, not transfer to CHS).

It’s my 100,000,000th blog post! … in base 2. But this episode is still rather special to me. It isn’t just the one that gave us Cakelestia and proof that Equestria has no libel laws. It’s also the source of one of my first attempts at a non-crossover story. Let’s open up this issue.

The references. Good God, the references. Agatha Christie, Ian Fleming, Arthur Conan Doyle... Is it any wonder I've cast Pinkie as Discord's mother?

Except tiger. Very gauche.

OK, the gist of things:

1- Still focusing on game design work. Still doing One Game a Month, you can always find me there.
2- Still working on fic, including 4o2, alongside it. Nothing's dead, my posting schedule is just... comical. My apologies for this humor.
3- Commissioning a fic that I think many of you might enjoy. Keep an eye and an ear out for that.
4- Summer is awful and my nose agrees. My huge, engorged, hateful nose.

To paraphrase W. C. Fields (possibly,) never work with dragons or children. And when the dragon is a child…
