I’m trying to put a game of Civilization IV Warlords together. Limit of 4 humans (including me), so looking for one to three other players. This would be a 2 to 3 hour a night game over the next few days over the Gamespy network. The time we start/end each night would depend on everyone’s timezones/availability.

Looking for a quick game. First come, first served as far as the civilization you get to choose to play, so the sooner you respond, the sooner you get your choice.

Yay! I posted my third podcast already, and on time too. This podcasting only instead of Internet Radio broadcasting thing is doing pretty good. Heh. I’ll update the site tomorrow to reflect the new podcast, but for tonight, everyone who has subscribed to the feed gets their podcast now.

Now, don’t you want to subscribe? ;)

This had me rolling. How to Seduce a Mac Geek. Warning: this is very NSFW!!
(no pictures, though).

Oh, and the girls go to school today. Yay!! (albeit, two hours late).

I’m uploading the regular podcast right now…over 1 hour of yummy Mac gaming goodness! Unfortunately, the images that I need to use in the enhanced version need some work, and when I tried to bring up MacGimp, my G5 told me it didn’t have X11 installed. WTF?? It’s supposed to be automatic. Sigh. So now I have a bunch of stuff to do even before I get to change the images so that I can finish the enhanced podcast. So, later today or tomorrow for that.

But I didn’t want to make everyone wait for the podcast, so I made sure to upload the regular one now. Enjoy. :)

Yeah, I tried. But I had a ton of stuff to do. And they’re taking me out to dinner tonight. Oh, and my husband bought me a Wii. Weeeeeeee!!!!!

So, I should have it posted by no later than 11 am Pacific Time, enhancements and all.

ETA: Okay, add to this the fact that it has snowed again, and that my kids are, again, home from school, and the time may be delayed further. ARGHHHH!!! When are my kids *ever* going to go to school so I can do a day’s work!!!

I have realized already that I have so much to say in this podcast that I was planning on posting today that I may not actually get it all down, recorded, edited, and uploaded by this evening. Add to that the fact that today is a Federal holiday (meaning the kidlet is home) and that today is my birthday (I’m turning, uh, thirty, yeah, thirty today ;), and it all combines for me wanting to wait to finish and post by noon tomorrow.

So, if you don’t see the podcast posted tonight, it will be up by tomorrow. Plus, I’ll actually be posting two podcasts, one the basic podcast, and the second will be an enhanced podcast…so there will be two xml files to choose from (I’ll send out a note to everyone on the newsletter…go here to subscribe.)

Oops, now I’ll *have* to do the enhanced podcast. ;)

I’m back from Macworld and exhausted and ready for some rest. Just a quick note to let everyone know that I’ve posted my first podcast from Macworld SF 2007. You can open up your podcast catcher and download it (you *are* subscribed, right? ;-), or you can surf to iTunes, Yahoo Podcast, Odeo, iPod Nova, etc and download it that way. I don’t yet have it up on the MacRadio site.

Right now I just want to relax. Play some games for fun. I’ve been playing Quake IV multiplayer deathmatch. I’ll probably play Civ IV and Legion Arena later too. Oh, and I found out how to fix that nasty problem that some players of Legion Arena have (including me) where the battle button gets greyed out after the third level. Thanks to Justin from Freeverse for letting me know about that! I’ll post about that in a bit too.

If you have a question about Macworld that you want answered, or a comment you want to make, post it here. I’ll be happy to answer questions, even going out and locating stuff if you are interested. Want a picture of something? Let me know. Want me to tell you about whether something sucks or not? Tell me, I’m your gopher. Well, maybe not, but this is as close as you’ll get.

This is me, working for you. Just finished doing an interview with Ultimate Ears. They put out an earbud with serious bass that caters to the gamer market. Awesome sound. You’ll just have to listen to the interview later tonight or this week (whenever it is posted) for the rest. ;-)

Also, I am somewhat unimpressed with the offerings of game publishers this year. Granted, I’ve only been in the North Hall (where the gaming pavilion is) for a short bit, but still, it seemed quiet and, well, subdued. I’ll be visiting it later tomorrow for a serious amount of time. Feral is there, so I get to play some The Movies. Yay!

Everyone asks me what I think about the iPhone. iPhone, iPhone, iPhone. I keep telling them the same thing. We’ll see games on it. We’ll see third party hardware for it (why do you think it will be six months till release??) like memory sticks for added storage, and battery sticks for added battery time. I see a holder for the iPhone, where you put the iPhone in the front part, and in the back are little openings to plug these other hardware pieces in. No, seriously.

Another interview. Gotta go.

This is my first day of the conference, despite the fact that yesterday was the keynote and all. I figure that Steve Jobs never says anything that is relevant to Mac gaming. No really. Then he goes and unveils the iPhone on me. Boy, do I feel like an idiot. Ah well. I will get a photo of it later today and post it on my blog so you can see it. It really is remarkable. I mean, it’s a video iPod merged with a Blackberry, with five years of future stuff everyone will need thrown in. Take that, Zune! ;-) And yes, it will become a gaming machine, of sorts. I see mobile gaming competition, here.

I am busily gathering interviews as well. There will be interviews of interest to the Mac gaming geek, and the Mac game developer geek, so you don’t want to miss out on those. I’m currently blogging from the Microsoft Blogging lounge. Talk about a juxtaposition. Actually, of all Microsoft’s products, I have to say that I like Microsoft Word the best…which is why I still use it.

I’ve got another interview to get now. Gotta go. More blogging later!
