Nice blog.
I certainly feel pressure sometimes when I play a multiplayer game to not make the wrong move and therefore be the reason my team lost. It sometimes feels like gaming is too serious a business. It takes me a second, and then I remember I'm playing a game, something I'm supposed to be playing for fun.

Lenore! Good to see another post from you. It's been quite some time.
This actually brings up a tangentially related topic for me. I can't stand how angry people get online when you make a mistake. Some of the greatest moments I've had with multiplayer games have come because we've done something stupid--messed up somehow. It'd be nice to have that sort of childlike freedom to screw up like this online without a bunch of people who think they're god's gift to the game jumping at the chance to tell you that you suck.

Thanks, Andrew :) I've been kind of away for a while, I suppose.
And yes, online flaming is insanely prolific and retarded, but it helps when you already know that you suck at almost all games, as I am fully aware. ;)

Yes! Games do keep you young; that's why I always enjoy them most when wearing pajamas - takes me back to a time when life was solely exploration.
Enjoyed this post.
