[EVE Online] I came across a link to a picture of all (most?) the ships in EVE Online side by side and it shows the size comparison of them quite well, besides just being cool. Take note of the representative scale in the lower left corner.
I have uploaded a copy here for anyone to view. Click here for an even bigger view. Enjoy!

[EVE Online] I took some time off from my job search. It seems most corporations out here have odd work hours and they don’t much jive with my sleep hours. So I need to find a few corporations that operate when I do.
In the meantime, I found I nice deal on an Osprey just a few jumps away from my current home station. I placed the order and jumped in a shuttle. I picked up the Osprey and promptly named it “Rock Tumbler”. The Osprey is a good ship for mining.
I needed to order a few parts for the ship, namely a few good mining lasers. I found a deal for 4 of them in Jita, which was 6 jumps away, so I insured the Osprey and off I went.
Just got back from the first showing of Serenity. No spoilers here, just praise.
You know how when you really want a film to be good, really good, that it always ends up not meeting your expectations? Thankfully and for the first time in my movie viewing history, this one did not follow that path. This movie is better than I had hoped. It was fantastic. If I didn’t have to get back to work, I would have stayed for a second showing.
I’m shocked and suprised and thrilled and blown away. Bring on the sequal!
Do yourself a favor and avoid any spoilers, there are some suprises for sure and you wouldn’t want to ruin it.
Oh and personally, I think having watched the TV series really improved the quality of the movie. I’m not sure how someone that never saw any of the shows would think. I would hope they like it too, it was that good.

[EVE Online] I’ve spent the last week or two reading up on various corporations in EVE. I’ve been trying to find one that meets my ideals. Lately I’m missing out on the social aspect in game since a few people quit and a few people went off to PvP land.
I’ve got my eye on one that seems just about perfect for me. I’ll be contacting them soon to see how we mesh. One item of concern for me is that I plan to write here about things we do, so I’ll need to bring it up and see what they think about it. I am willing to keep some things out of the limelight, but being that this is a corp with all intentions of being neutral I don’t think it will be a huge issue.
Also, I’m going to have to sell some of my ships. I’m going to follow the rule, “don’t fly anything you can’t afford to replace”. I currently have a ship that is way over my head so it will need to go into mothballs for a while. I’ll sell the other ones I don’t need as I am assuming I’ll be relocating once I get “hired” by a corporation.

Let’s see, my account for EVE Online just expired. I’ll reactivate it soon as there are some things I still want to do – like venture into 0.0 space. A friend of mine stopped by tonight and asked me to help walk him through City of Heroes a little bit since he just purchased it. Thus, I have reactivated my CoH account at least temporarily. If he gets into that I’ll probably keep my account active just to hang out with him since he is moving across country. World of Warcraft is still active but I think it runs out in the beginning of October. I’ve had some good fun there lately so I’ll probably have to reactivate that as well.
Will I really have three accounts active? That’s just nuts. I don’t have the time for three games.

[Guild Wars] NCsoft and ArenaNet’s Guild Wars Surpasses One Million Units Sold in North America and Europe;
Acclaimed Online Game Hits Milestone in Less than Five Months; Activations Show No Sign of Slowing as Holiday Season Approaches
I wonder how many of those 1,000,000 units sold are still being used.

[World of Warcraft] A good friend of mine offered to take my level 20 Undead Warlock through Shadowfang Keep in hopes of getting one of the good drops at the end. The final guy drops one of a selected few choice things and several of them would be good for me.
We worked our way through the keep (ok, he worked our way through) and we made it to the end with no problems thanks to the fact that we have done this about 8 times total together. The drop was a really nice belt that I’ll be able to use in a few levels. I also leveled to 21 during the run. We plan to go back and hope for the robes. I’ll probably hit 22 in that process as well.
The Imp in phase-shift is nice for things like this. The stamina buff gives me an additional 100 hit points and he is safe from attack so we don’t have to worry about aggro issues. I kept myself soulstoned just in case I got killed and would thus be able to rez on the spot.
Really, the whole run was good for me. I improved several armor pieces, a few of them were blue items including two rings. Nice!
I must say, even though I’ve only done two instances, Shadowfang Keep is my favorite. I guess that doesn’t say much but a few level 60 players I know say it is one of their favorites too.
On another note, the same guild that sent me a blind invite a while back has done so again. Same way. Even if you didn’t have a stupid guild name, I would not join you because of the way you invite random strangers to the guild. I would, however, be willing to join a fun guild that isn’t into hard core raiding and such all the time. If you know of a good, fun, laid-back Horde guild on Hellscream, let me know.
