	BlackChampagne -- no longer new; improvement also in question.: Hellgate: London Friday, May 05, 2006 Hellgate: London Well, as I've hinted at here any number of times, I've been working on a new gaming fansite, and since it just went online, I might as well own up to it here. hellgate.loadedinc.com is the URL, and it's on the same site network as diabloii.net, my long time D2 site that brought most of you here in the first place. I'm obviously recommending the HGL site as a good source for gaming news and forum chat and all of that, and now that the rush to get it online is over, I should have time/energy to get back to blogging here a bit more regularly. Of course there will be upkeep, and especially after E3 I'll be spending a few days working long hours as I update the 100+ content pages I just finished on the HGL site, but generally speaking the 12-16 hours a day of HGL work I've been doing will be a thing of the past. Which means I can get back to the novel, and this blog. As for the novel, I never posted here, but it's done. Rough draft done, at least. I finished the last chapter and the epilogue last week, while sticking to my "HGL in the day, novel at night" work schedule, which was leaving about 2 hours a day for food prep, gym attendance, TV watching, and Malaya time. It's lucky I don't need 8 hours of sleep very often. Unfortunately, with the HGL rush I haven't had time to edit the last 100k words or so, and I'm not going to get all that done tonight, so there's no way I can print it out and take a copy down to San Diego for my mom to read. I'd hoped to do that, while leaving a copy here for Malaya to go over while I'm down in So Cal for a parents visit and then E3. It'll have to wait a week or so, unfortunately. Anyway, I'm leaving tomorrow afternoon to drive down to San Diego, enjoying the $3.29 a gallon blessing our oil man president's foreign policy has conjured up. I'll be there for a few days, might have time to post a blog entry or two, before I'll be in LA on the 9th-11th at E3, and then back home by the evening of the 11th, with any luck. Most of my immediately time will be doing HGL site stuff, forums and news and such though, so if you've been dying for more Fluxiness, that's the place to go. Also, if any of you are interested in the game (it's basically Diablo II in 3d, crossed with a shooter) I'd appreciate you checking out the site and letting me know what you think. (Comment here, mail me at the HGL site, or post it the suggestion forum thread over there.) Especially if you haven't been following HGL at all, since I tried to pitch the various HGL Basics pages to a new reader, and have no idea how successful I was at that. Labels: Hellgate: London Posted by: Flux # 12:27 PM Comments: your link actually points to http://hellgate.loadedinc.com/files /files.php?temp_view=files.php&game=&id=4 , might want to fix that :) #: 3:16 PM posted by Anonymous Wait...weren't you the one advocating higher gas prices last year? Personally, I think past Congressmen are more responsible for the current increase that this administration. Hard to build new refineries with the draconian regulations. And even with all that, we're still about the same relative prices as the 50s-60s. I think people are making a mountain out of a molehill on this issue. #: 9:00 PM posted by Anonymous $3.29 a gallon? Hell, here it works out as $8.18 a gallon (£0.97 a litre). We really do love Bush. (And Blair.) #: 12:47 AM posted by Anonymous you're just trying to show up the russki who got the flagship job, aren't you? #: 10:03 AM posted by Anonymous I would like to comment that the site often seems to load pretty slowly, for me. I'm on broadband. I've accessed the site more than once since you posted, on different days and hours. Maybe it's just me tho. It looks nice, with a good layout, however. #: 10:51 AM posted by Anonymous Post a Comment << Home Archives May 2005 June 2005 July 2005 August 2005 September 2005 October 2005 November 2005 December 2005 January 2006 February 2006 March 2006 April 2006 May 2006 June 2006 July 2006 August 2006 September 2006 October 2006 November 2006 December 2006 January 2007 February 2007 March 2007 April 2007 May 2007 June 2007 July 2007 August 2007 September 2007 October 2007 November 2007 December 2007 January 2008 February 2008 March 2008 April 2008 May 2008 June 2008 July 2008 August 2008 September 2008 October 2008 November 2008 December 2008 January 2009 February 2009 March 2009 April 2009 May 2009 June 2009 July 2009 August 2009 September 2009 October 2009 November 2012
