(As you can see, the camera is focused on me, not my furry sidekick)
Well, it’s the last day. Time for one last game. One more trip saving the galaxy. One more day being heroic, because that, my friend, is how I roll. I will be back one last time tomorrow to count the lucre, thank the contributors, and sum up this (as always) great experience. Read the rest of this entry »

(Less angel and devil than foe and foe)
So I took a day off a week or so ago, and promised that I’d add an extra game to make up. As this is the last weekend in the month, this is probably the last day I can do this. So here you are, two games and two pictures for today. This also makes up for missing Day 0 (Jeff, please take note).
For this picture, I should really be wearing white and carrying a jackhammer, but hopefully my friends — or should I say enemies? — should help give you a clue. The guy on my shoulder should really be wearing yellow goggles as well, but I didn’t have any in his size. Read the rest of this entry »

(dJim/dt = 3)
I’ve divided myself into three parts to mourn what I believe is the end of a great game. Fantasy Flight is having a huge sale, and all the expansions for this game are on that list. Doesn’t bode well for the future of the title, that’s for sure. Read the rest of this entry »

(Me parrot died, so now I all I have this is here manatee. Yarr.)
So yes, this is me with a stuffed manatee. You’d think that manatees don’t have much to do with vintage games — and I would have agreed with you — but it turns out that a remake of a classic computer game features a rather large manatee swallowing our hero’s ship. Giant man-eating manatee — those crazy game designers… Read the rest of this entry »

(Where’s Buffy when you need her?)
I’ve been chasing this damnable vampire for days now. Through all of Europe and across the Mediterranean. And now, after cornering him in Budapest, he’s hypnotized me into shaving my neck and preparing myself for him. Hopefully Lord Godalming will show up soon. Read the rest of this entry »

(Anyone seen any fire-breathing lizards?)
More donations have come in, so thank you very much, kind supporters. Still, I am behind and so am inspired to search for gold, silver and coppers. However, you can’t look for treasure without being suitably armed… Read the rest of this entry »

(Josephine, that rash on my belly is back…)
Today’s picture should (at least in part) evoke an era. An era named for one short man… the game might also evoke a New York brownstone, but I don’t happen to have one of those lying around.
By my calculations, we should be at the halfway mark. And by further calculating, we should have all raised an average of $125 to reach a monthly mark of $5000. That does not appear to be the case, and it is clear I for one am in the lower standard deviation, and so am shirking my duties. Expect that to change. Read the rest of this entry »

(How do you make a shirt out of this again?)
So after Mur hit the deer, I thought it would be best if I started looking into armor technology. Plate mail being a bit on the pricey side, maybe another kind of mail would work. Then again, given the amount of chain I have, it’d be more suitable for a miniature car. Read the rest of this entry »

(Thank you, Car Man!)
Tonight my wife Mur hit a deer with her car. As you can see, she is fine. The car and the deer are not. It’s not often that I get to play the role of hero, but bravely did Car Man set out on his quest to pick her up and drive her home. Read the rest of this entry »

(I could really use some coins)
If you can’t get this one, you have completely missed out on games for the past twenty years. Seriously. Corporate mascot? Sequel after tie-in after sequel after tie-in sequel? No? Read the rest of this entry »
