So I’m browsing eBay looking for some Farscape Toys and I notice that there’s a seller selling items from Gigi Edgley’s personal collection.  If you don’t know who that is, she played Chiana on the ubercool SciFi show Farscape.  You can see the current list of items for sale here: Gigi Edgley Collectibles and you can browse through the sold items here: Sold Gigi Edgley Collectibles.  There was a cool South Park Scorpius shirt that sold for $41.  I had no idea they were even made.

The seller seems legit as Gigi is pictured holding the items.  It should also be noted:

“BONUS #1-Gigi will personally sign it, anywhere with whatever the winning bidder wants (no signature, only signature, signature with a name or note, etc.). She’ll even take a photo with the signed item before shipping it out as proof that it is her signature!

BONUS #2-She’s also willing to write a small note (on the back of a Chiana fan card picture) describing the item, stating it was from her personal collection and any other details you’d like. She’ll take a photo with the note as well as the item, and you will receive the pictures via email while it’s being shipped!”

I thought that was pretty cool and worth checking out.  I’ll be watching again soon since they ship worldwide.

Over the next few months I plan to release WarCraft 3 maps. These custom maps will be freely available to download one at a time. I don’t have an exact schedule of when I will be releasing them. I’ll try to upload a new map at least once a week. Some of the maps will be playable on WarCraft III while others will require WarCraft III the Frozen Throne expansion. Files with the .w3m extension are for WarCraft 3 while .w3x files are for the Frozen Throne game.

Since this is my first post, I am offering 2 maps:

Tower Wars Map
and
Pokemon Arena Emerald Map

Right click on the links and save them. Stick them into your maps folder wherever you installed WarCraft 3 on your PC.

So I was watching season 3 of “The Guild,” a very enjoyable Youtube TV show about people from a MMORPG and their lives in and out of the game. It’s a really great show. In one of the episodes, they made a reference to www.finnsmulders.com and it turns out they have made the web page in real life as well. I love when TV shows and movies do that. Browsing the site I went ahead and peeked at the source code and found some cool messages as well as a link to Axis of Anarchy the fictional guild run by Wil Wheaton’s character. This is the second time I’ve seen him playing an antagonistic character and he’s done really well (the other show being Big Bang Theory). I look forward to seeing him in more things.

The other cool thing about finnsmulders.com was the music. I googled some of the lyrics but couldn’t find the song. I found some sites for The Guild with people inquiring about the name of the musician with no luck. Well I continued digging. The name of the song is H2CO3 and the singer is NRAN. You can checkout NRAN’s MySpace page and you’ll find H2CO3 as well as other songs available to download for free. I’m getting the rest of the album as I write this. If anyone was looking for the song from finnsmulders.com then check out that MySpace page and enjoy!

Starcraft II beta testing begins this month and although Blizzard hopes for a “mid 2010″ release, I am guessing it won’t be out before October. It wouldn’t be a Blizzard game if there were not multiple delays.

You can expect the value of the already scarce Starcraft collectibles to jump in value once the new game is released. Snag a few now before the prices rise:

I recently googled the word “pitspoes” hoping for some clarification of the word. Since I’m not a die hard racing fan, I would have no clue. A more informed friend says that pitspoes refers to the girls who go gaga over race car drivers when they win. Pitspoes a Dutch (or Flemmish) word.

Hope that helps anyone confused!

Dear Travian players,

All good things must come to an end, and so too must this age. Once Solomon was given a ring, upon which was inscribed a message that could take away all the joys or sorrows of the world, that message was roughly translated, “this too shall pass”. It is both our joy and sorrow to announce to all Travian that this too has now passed! We hope you enjoyed your time with us as much as we enjoyed serving you and thank you for staying until the very end!

The results: Day had long since passed into night, yet the workers of the village Southern Simmers, labored on throughout the wintery night, ever wary of the countless armies marching to destroy their work, knowing that they raced against time and the greatest threat that had ever faced the free people. Their tireless struggles were rewarded at 12:40 after a nameless worker laid the final stone in what will be forever known as the greatest and most magnificent creation in all of history since the fall of the Natars.

Together with the alliance “South-WW“, “Regulator“ was the first to finish the Wonder of the World, using millions of resources whilst also protecting it with hundreds of thousands of brave defenders. It is therefore “Regulator“ who receives the title “winner of this era”!

“Caio Mario“ was ruler over the largest personal empire, followed closely by “Viktor“ and “Mervangi“.
“Incognito“ slew more than any other, and was the mightiest, most fearsome commander.
“Regulator“ was the most glorious defender, slaughtering his enemies at his gates, staining the lands around his villages with their blood.

Best regards,
Your Travian-Team

I have only seen about a dozen Korean movies. Until two days ago I was not impressed. I am not one to give up on a country though just because of a few bad movies. The U.S. has thousands of bad movies.

The Legend of the Shadowless Sword (2005) is the first of the two movies that I really enjoyed. The second movie was The Restless (2006). The Restless was my favorite of the two. The Netflix synopsis reads:

After his beloved fiancé is killed by demons, Yi Gwak (Woo-sung Jung) joins the royal demon-hunting squad and distinguishes himself as a great hero. And though Yi eventually falls in battle, his adventures are just beginning.

That’s really just the back story. Yi Gwak ends up in a place called Midheaven which is a realm between worlds where spirits go for 49 days before they are reincarnated. Yi Gwak, however, is not a spirit but a living human. An evil rebellion is afoot and Yi Gwak must stop it.

The special effects were special for sure. I watch a lot of foreign movies and good special effects are rare. I would not say the movie out did Zu Warriors, but it was a respectable challenger. If you are looking for a good sword fighting movie with an interesting story then I definitely recommend “The Restless.”

Days fade into nights that seem ever longer as the cruel chills of winter begin their descent upon a people weary of war. The first snowflakes dance across the night sky, foretelling the end of all that was and all that will be.

Wonder of the world The glorious victories of the past no longer seem as wonderful in the latest retelling. They are but memories of a time when men felt immortal. The old warriors huddle beside the fire and remember fondly the great friends they had fought beside and lost, now but distant shadows in the darkness. The armies and triumphs of the past have lost their luster, and those still left standing wonder what they continue to fight for and whether there is anything worth still fighting for. They resolve that they will not go so silently into the winter night, that this age, their age, will be one to be remembered.

They pledged to search across the world for knowledge of the wonders of the past, hidden in the past, in a world that was now legend, in a world that was beyond memory. Heroes and armies searched far and wide across the fields, forests and mountains, braving the elements and their enemies to bring the secrets of the lost past back home. After many bitter disappointments a muse smiled upon some unknown hero and guided him to the revelation that a tribe of that long lost past yet lurked among the living—- The Dreaded Natars. The Natars are steeped in lore and mystery, an ancient race so feared for their savagery in battle that they are told as bedtime stories to scare children.

With much trepidation, the armies of Travian bid farewell to their loved ones, possibly for the last time, to march into the villages of the Natarian Empire. Hundreds of thousands of souls marched on the crowded roads beneath a winter sky to their destiny. There was no fear in their eyes, no hesitation, for they knew it was their chance, their only chance, to leave this age with not a whisper, but a roar, a declaration, that they existed. A declaration that will last throughout the ages, to become story, song and legend.

Beneath the winter sky, the flickering lights of the Natarian villages waited for the hundreds of armies marching towards them, the Dread Armies of the Dead Empire prepared to defend the valuable points from which they had once controlled the world, knowing that the many advantages that lay within each would be crucial to the fate of the world and its many peoples.

(Story by Grozoth)

The wonders of the world will be implemented on the November 21, 2009 (This is for s7.travian.com)
