Jabber Longwind was unamused, it being the 17th time he'd heard that joke today.

Maltheas does not like Steelers

Like all dwarves, Cheeves is a Steelers fan.

Maltheas is dressed more appropriately for the Green Bay Packers anyway. May the best Superbowl team win!

We’re down in Australia this time around, so my sleep patterns are at risk, but I don’t care. It’s going to be a winter of hope and pain, beefy sixes, and outrageous referee decisions!!!

I may be a little distracted for a while,but that’s alright! Let’s celebrate with Mr Duckworth and Mr Lewis, and their fine musical stylings!

As the mood of England swings from “Capello should be fired!” after two draws, to “Capello! What a genius! England are going all the way!”, after two draws, and a win against Slovenia, a plucky little nation with a population of two million, I must admit I’m getting a bit tired of the World Cup.

My comments from Euro 2008 still pretty much sum up how I feel about the whole business.

What have I been up to?

The chief suspect is Pirates of the Burning Sea. I got quite heavily into it, running the forum for my Nation, and currently chairing the Council of guilds. My addiction seems to be waning though, so we might see a bit more posting here in the future.

Far more importantly, I was lucky enough to get the chance to do a [...]

England crash out of Euro 2008!!! ZOMG!!! Shoot McClaren into the sun!!!

Just because we invented the game doesn’t give us a timeless right to be in tournaments, if we can’t be bothered to assemble a team that doesn’t suck. Premier football in Britain, and increasingly the rest of the world is so flush with money that the players are paid such incredible fees that I’m not surprised they [...]
