I have just finished writing up my 98th hub over at Hubpages.com. This one is all about Chrono Cross, which is a classic RPG released in the year 1999 for the PlayStation console. Go read it now and see what you might have missed in the last decade!
In other news, I'm not doing so hot in Starcraft II. I just got so rusty so fast. The game is certainly a lot more unforgiving than the original version. But, such is the way of the fast paced RTS environment. :P
In other, other news, my birthday is in five days. Hooray in advance for me! :D
I'm pretty spent. Not sure what else to write here. I'll just sign out for now I suppose.
Until the next time, take care and have fun! ;)

I have reached Gold Rank in Starcraft II !
For those of you who have followed me at HubPages recently, you may or may have noticed one of my newest hubs related to the Starcraft II ladder. You can check it out by clicking on any part of this sentence: It's called Starcraft 2: Tips, Strategies, and Tricks from a Silver-Level Player.
Since then, I have actually been promoted to Gold, which was, to be fair, a long time coming. See, the matchmaking system had been pairing me up against Gold and Platinum level players for a while, so I knew that a promotion was imminent. I was just not sure when it would happen. It finally happened in a game versus a Zerg player who attempted to Mutalisk rush me...on one base. Considering how gas heavy Mutalisks are, that was a pretty bad idea. There are several one base Zerg aggression strategies that do work, but quick Muta doesn't, unless you have insane micromanagement abilities.
If you want to check out my progress on the ladder (or anyone else, for that matter), click here.
In other news, I've also been playing Dragon Quest IX and have been getting some pretty cool rare items from the DQVC. This week is "fashion week" (I'm paraphrasing, but the official name of the week is pretty vague anyways. :P).
So, that's about it from me for now. I hope you're all doing great and having lots of fun!
Until the next time, take care and have fun! ;)

P.S: I hate early aggression builds in Starcraft II. :'(

Dragon Quest IX Wifi Get!
The title says it all! :)
But, first I must apologize for this long hiatus. Most of the break was forced due to the loss of my old internet connection, but the rest of it was me being too lazy to update. :P
Of course, that's the bad news. The good news is that my new connection allows me to connect to Wi-Fi, so now I can access the DQVC in DQ IX! Isn't that awesome?
Speaking of which, this week is the High Seas Sale, or Pirate Week as I so plainly call it, so sail over to the DQVC if you have access to Wi-Fi so you can check out what's up for barter, argh! ;)
Connecting to the Wi-Fi also allows me to download the extra quests that have been released for the game since its launch, and now I can use Sellma and Patty in my party, if I so choose to.
In other cool news, I've used one of my two Starcraft 2 trial passes to get my dad some playing time. We played two games today and he enjoyed it, so I'll see if I can't get him a copy of the game. But, that has to be after I get some more money in my pocket!
That's about it from me for now...
Oh wait, one more thing. I wrote up an article at Hubpages related to Facebook Integration that may prove an interesting read. If you want to check it out, click on any part of this paragraph.
Ok, now I'm done for real for now. Take care and have fun guys and girls! ;)

Dragon Quest IX - Legacy Boss Hunter: Dhoulmagus up at HubPages!
As usual, my over-descriptive post title explains itself. :P
Dhoulmagus is the third Legacy Boss I have unlocked in Dragon Quest IX. Murdaw is much more annoying at level 1 than Dhoulmagus is though, or maybe my party is just a bit too strong now, lol. In either case, feel free to check out the article by clicking any part of the sentence.
In other news, I finished watching the third season of the Global Starcraft II League today. I was pretty surprised that the Protoss actually took the win in that tournament considering all the whining I've been reading about them being horribly underpowered. :P
I guess the official forums will all be like inb4terranisUP now since Terran remains the only race not to have won a single GSL tournament. Sometimes I miss Starcraft 2, until I remember how Blizzard has butchered customer satisfaction just to make a few more bucks.
Of course, one could argue that I'm worse than the average forum goer considering I seem to whine about Blizzard at regular intervals. Me, who paid a deposit to reserve the game TWO YEARS before it came out. Yeah, I used to be a Blizzard fanboy. All the more reason to be pained with their current agenda.
Anyways, I don't really have much more to say today, so I'll just bid you farewell and hope you have lots of fun.
