Chaos in the Old World: Demons

Yay, it’s done. Chaos in the Old World is fully painted now – in other words, the minis don’t look completely out of place on the awesome game board anymore. My apologies in advance for the somewhat bad-quality pictures – my camera is not that awesome. I’m sure you’ll notice the color bleed from the [...]

Chaos in the Old World: Cultists

I have this new board game, Chaos in the Old World. And even though I still haven’t painted the last ones of my Doom demons, I started painting stuff for this one, for relaxing between sprees of working or learning. The cultists are already done: I’ll upload the pictures to Board Game Geek as well [...]

I’ll Be Back

This blog here was quiet for quite some time now. I plan to write again, now that my diploma thesis is finished – it’s with the Professor now. I will most probably publish it here, too. Examns are incoming in March, finally, after way more than enough time studying. And, we’re getting a baby, yay [...]

New Commenting Policy?

In the recent weeks, I have gotten quite a bit of not-quite-but-nearly-totally-spam-that-duisguises-really-well. As a result, I removed my DoFollow plugin. But I don’t really like that solution. I think I might change my approach and make a new commenting policy rule. A quite simple one at that: Every comment that uses some kind of product [...]

As you may or may not have noticed, I now have a second blog: haslos Politblog. I decided I’d want to blog about Swiss politics from time to time as well, and with this blog being English only and having a global rather than Swiss target audience, these subjects didn’t really fit in here. So [...]

Games I Didn’t Blog About

This blog has been incredibly quiet lately – but now that I’m done with the diploma thesis (yay), I can come back and start blogging semi-regularly again. First though, I will make catchup posts until I feel I caught up. First, games. There were plenty of new games I tried. Let’s have itsy bitsy tiny [...]

WordPress 2.7.1

Thanks to MySQLDumper, I got around the timeout issue that my database backup had. And with a database backup, I dared upgrade my WordPress. So here goes nothing, with a shiny and new haslo.ch that looks just like the old one If you notice any issues, I’d be glad about a comment here. The FTP [...]

Snowboarding Accident

I had a not completely un-horrible snowboarding accident a week ago, but I’m back home now (everything-OK-alarm, except for that big bag of painkillers and a couple broken bones) and will be online again in the next few days. But I’ll take things slow Oh – never, never ever snowboard or ski without helmet or [...]
