I hate myself.

Imagine my rage and frustration. I had almost finished these recaps, in fact I had just typed in FPoTD. Then my hand slipped and I hit the back button. All my work magically vanished in the blink of an eye. Learn from my experience, always type up your blogs in word.

This week, in my life, I walked into a wall, tripped over a sock, and cut myself with a butter knife. It was not a good week.

Saturday was SilverDragons birthday. If you want to wish him a good one go here.

Look we're wasting time, let's move onto the recaps.


*-The Okami nerd, I mean Mk, writes a blog about Okami.

*-What can I say, I enjoyed this blog.

*-This dude speaks the truth.

*-Expect all future kauza posts to be topsauced.

*-Quite the read! Everyone on Dtoid should write a blog as long and interesting as this.

*-Ending the topsauce with an AWESOME!


A-Ack has been having lotsa fun with FPS's.

A-I can't even remember the last time I played Sailor Moon.

A-Defending Ellis. Sounds like a TV show.

A-I agree with this dude.

S-Tubatic's weekly blog - Tubaticisms.

S-This could actually be a good idea.

P-Drunkcast is recording. Blehman, if you're reading this, I haven't seen you in ages and I miss you...


Nope, you get nothing.



E-I wish I could have gone to this.

F-Euro FNF. This is the third week in a row I've said the same thing for this.

F-PS3 FNF. Again, third week in a row, bitch!

S-A truly terrifying story.


N-If this is real, I have no faith in the education system anymore.

R-Boderlands review.

T-"I am your father"- literally the only quote I know from Star Wars.

$-UK gamers rejoice! The weekly deals have arrived!


S-DO WANT!!!

M-Dtunes - JT IceFire is your main man.

F-I think this goes under film... 4 recaps in and I'm still acting like a n00b...


L-A funny top ten.

V-A funtastic video.

?-A week wouldn't be complete without my complete misunderstanding of a blog that is probably simple to understand.

?-I sense anger in your words... Don't worry, I'm angry too.


F-According to this guy, 7.5 is "abysmally low".

Shit man, sorry to hear that! I saw you mention that in The Bar. Sucks.

Thus, I shall fap these caps extra hard, but not quite to the point of permanent injury. I may draw a bit of blood.

You don't even have to type in Word, just hit that "save and preview" button often.

... instead of Word, you might try a free program called "Evernote" - www.evernote.com - it's a very robust program that stores thousands of blogs in a really nice format. Another thing that I constantly use is a small firefox addon called Quicknote - http://quicknote.mozdev.org/ - quicknote pulls up a 4 tabbed small "notepad" for taking notes, writing comments (with a resizeable window). It integrates right into Firefox and saves itself continually so you never lose anything you type. I like both of these packages better than Word as they are more web friendly and both retain your notes in a better format than Word (you don't need to open a document... all documents are right there and can be easily read).

Thanks for the recaps Anonymouse!

I had to learn the hard way, too, so I'm sorry to hear that the whole thing had to be rewritten. Glad you managed to plug on and eventually get it up, though!

You and your fancy-pants "add-ons" and crazy fiddle faddle! I use Notepad and love it!

@Mega... yeah, notepad is good... but if you don't save it and something happens, you lose your data - the other programs autosave. In particular, Evernote is an incredible free program. It keeps all your notes or blogs in a timeline, you can categorize them, include links, pictures - it's really flexible! I've been using it for years now.
... and it's FREE! :)

@Elsa - I'm forced to agree. Evernote is a program that is in a hojillion ways extremely useful. I personally use it as both a digital art portfolio and a note taking/storing/sorting system, so that I can sift through notes from classes for studying and refreshing my memory. Definitely worth trying out.

@Anonymous Thanks a lot of including my post in the recap. I love writing about games, but it wasn't until this post that I thought I'd actually put it up at Dtoid to see what kind of response it would get. Thanks a lot for the warm welcome.

MkShiranui: The "Save & Preview" button saves your post but takes it offline. The "Publish" button saves the post and makes it public. So, if you're editing your blog and hit the "Save & Preview" button instead of "Publish Live", it'll be hidden. It's just one of the cblogs' little quirks.
