Dawn of War, developed by Relic has seen the number of concurrent online players dwindle to roughly 250 at any one time. Meaning if you log on and look for a game, there are about 250 people to choose from. Sounds pretty good, right? Can always get a game if you want.This is 6 months after release.
Warcraft 3, developed by Blizzard Entertainment, has roughly 45,000 concurrent users online at any one time. World of Warcraft, also by Blizzard Entertainment achieves roughly 200,000 players online at any one time. Both these figures are for American servers only : there are other dedicated servers for European and Asian regions as well.
The difference in scale is mind boggling indeed.
the rain stops; the city is shrouded in mist, but the sky is something else - a thousand miles of crystal clear ice, with a million pinpricks of lights frozen in their dance across the heavens.

My Reward!
Everyone, meet the new love of my life (sorry Vesper)...
I've been eyeing this range of bags for over 2 months. I loved it at first sight, (the colours! the flowers!) but sadly I just couldn't justify the price. Then a month ago it went on sale, a 50% discount - from RM79 down to RM38, but still I said no... I have ENOUGH bags! And I held firm.
But I couldn't get it out of my mind. I dreamt about it, obsessed about it, stopped by the shop whenever I could to pat the pretty pretty bag. I teetered on the brink of indecision, then last night, kimmik tells me that she's bought herself a new bag for RM33! (See below)
And cute as it is it's nowhere near as pretty as my new love. She announced it as her pre-reward for almost completing her thesis, and since I've finished mine, by gum I deserve a new bag too! So today I zipped out and bought it. =D
Gone are the blues from dad losing my car keys (found them eventually), gone are the troubles and trials of impending final exams, no more are the woes of having a boyfriend stuck way way across the sea... I'm happy! (and incredibly shallow)
Besides its super pretty exterior, this baby is packed with pocketses. Enough to satisfy my die-hard organizing streak. On the outside, it has a front magnetic clasp pocket, and a back zipped pocket (perfect for my wallet). And on the inside, ah the inside *happy sigh*, it has one zipped compartment, one handphone pocket and THREE more miscellaneous pockets!
Happiness can be no more than this. =P

Some Vampire Game
I wandered into my friend's room and saw him playing a weird vampire game. Apparently he is playing a vampire. He walks up to a girl in a bar and sweet talks her, then bites her neck and begins sucking her blood! Stopping at the last moment so she doesn't die, so she just slumps in her seat like she's drunk. Why no one notice?
Then... he goes home. In his house, there is a skanky girl wandering around in her underwear. Again, wtf? He explains that he gave a girl a bit of blood to drink and she's addicted and will do whatever he tells her to. Which included telling her to walk around in her underwear. At this point his girlfriend walks in and glares at him.
Then he got her to seduce a guy to come back with her, and then he locked the guy in his toilet to use as a permanent blood sucking source every so often. What a weird game.

Star Wars Midnight Fiesta!
I was going to blog extensively about this event, but Kimmik's done it so well already that there's little point in me doing that. And since the pics are taken entirely by her, why don't you head on over to her site and take a look
