Good Old Games, Beta Launched
Yay! I was watching Good Old Games for some time now, was always looking forward to it since I first saw it. Today, I got the beta access key, a reason to rejoyce and share
First off, it’s awesome because you find games you always wanted to play but never found time to, then [...]
Stack Overflow: Solutions for Coders
If you’re a programmer, you know the problem of solution googlability. It’s particularly prominent in mainstream languages (and one of the things I decried in my What’s Wrong with VBA series, as VBA is particularly bad in that respect); you have a problem, you google for it, unless you’re coding in a good awesome well-designed [...]
Review: Twilight Imperium
This game is one I’ve been looking forward to actually playing for quite some time now. I bought Twilight Imperium 3rd Ed. (or TI3 in short, official site) and its expansion, Shattered Empire, quite some time ago, but alas, finding a time when everybody has time to actually sit together and play a game that [...]

If you’re a gamer, I’m sure you know Zero Punctuation — if not, take a seat and start with the very first ones. Because if you do, I’m sure you can’t stop until you’re through.

Everybody’s celebrating, even Google, with one of their famous doodles (uhm … does “please do not use them elsewhere” mean [...]
WordPress Updated, Plugin List
So I just did my first WordPress update to 2.6.2, 2.6.1 had a security hole. It went remarkably smooth, considering the horror stores I read (link German, click the links in that post for more) – as a matter of fact, everything seems to work as it should again.
I’ll take this opportunity to list all [...]
I’m Green!
I had pondered the thought for quite some time, now it happened: I am now a proud member of the Green Party of Switzerland – today the welcome letter of the national party arrived, the cantonal party’s information material should arrive within the next couple of days.
We’ll see how this turns out and how far [...]
TI3 is Awesome
I’ll make a proper review later, just a little note here that my first proper game of Twilight Imperium 3 (proper as in “not me playing against myself”) was awesome
I learned some lessons regarding what makes sense when teaching the game, found out that the things I linked in my last post on [...]
