Kieron Gillen's workblog

"Guild Wars is my favourite game of the year so far, but I'll get back to that.

It's also a bit different. In one of the more ritualised and obscenely formalised sub-genres the PC offers, being a bit different to most Online RPGs isn't the hardest task in the world, but Guild Wars takes it further. It also confuses expectations, in that a glance at the screenshots could lead to you just filing it alongside every other persistent-world fantasy game playing across the net today. So we're going to break it down into bullet points, press the review's barrel against your temple and fire each one home deep into your brain, just to make sure everyone understands.

Also, get yourself a cup of tea and a tasty biscuit. This is a long one."

Guild Wars for Eurogamer. As the intro says, a long one.

A review made up of bullet points?

Surely a sign of the end times.

Gotta love the arse-licking comments in the review's forum link.

It's a nice idea Stu but the problem is that communication is key. You can come up with some interesting strategys in Guild Wars but they're pretty useless if half the team doesn't understand and ignores them. Even if I did pick up some German I doubt I'd be able to form complex discriptions.

Except in Guild Wars the advernturers don't come from all over the world. They all come from one small part of it about the size of Yorkshire.

I know you may not think this is an appropriate post to your blog, however I would just like to compliment you on your blog and I wish you well in future endeavors with it,

Sincerely,

Mark

It's easy to quit smoking, I've done it hundreds of times!

You and millions of others have heard that comment before. There's a good possibility you have even said it yourself. And, while it does cause a momentary chuckle, the truth is that deep down where your addiction lives, it is no laughing matter. In fact, it's downright painful.
We can give you all the statistics:

- Over 400,000 smoking related deaths in the US every year
- 47 million adults in the United States smoke
- 1.3 billion people around the world are smoking
- Smoking population is expected to rise to 1.7 billion people in a few years time.
- 1 out of 2 will die from a smoking-related disease.
- And more yet to be published.

You owe it to yourself and those around you to find out how to beat the habit.

Great blog on com domain registration. I've stumbled on a superb money making website. Linkreferral is free to join and drives traffic to your website in an inivitive way (the more sites you visit, the more links you get back to your website.)

I've only been a member of Linkreferral for aproximately 2 weeks but I have already seen the volume of people coming to my site double - if not treble.

Linkreferral is not only driving visitors to my website but as a result my affiliate sales income has doubled also.

I really cannot push this website enough. It is free and it is fantastic!! www.linkreferral.com is a must for money making opportunities online.

Good blog - very interesting!! Thought you might like some excellent advice on driving extra traffic to your website/blog - I'm into home depot promotion code and to drive traffic to my website I was searching around the internet for absolutely ages looking for SEO tools to fire my site up the Google search engine, then I signed up free for this superb traffic gereating tool - I now have loads of hits to my websites/blogs and my site is shooting up the Google rankings quicker than ever before.

Consequently this can see your affiliate commissions shoot through the roof - meaning lots of extra money coming in for you and your family. Sign up now - it's free.. Sorry if this information is of no use to you but seeing as you have the anonymous feature enabled I thought I should share this free bit of essential promotional advice with you and would hope you would do the same for me.

I hope the tool will serve you equally as well as it has me!!

Best of luck, cheers for now, dave.

Hi

Sorry to intrude but I saw your blog, noticed you have anonymous posting enabled and thought you might be interested in this great search engine optimization tool for your blog and website (if you have one) that a techi mate recommended to me. Apparently it's all the rage in the IT arena.

I am involved in web site design michigan and I've found the best way of promoting my blogs and websites is The amazing link referral program. Don't worry it is absolutely free to join and you can generate visitors to your site by visiting others. It is really quick and easy to set up and the traffic you generate will help your website increase in google ranking. Give it a go now!!

I have generated amazing traffic from this program - increasing my affiliate sales and cannot recommend this enough. Believe me, if you have tried all the other programs on the market that you have had to pay for then you realise this one is the best - and it's free!!!

Best of luck with the blog!! I hope you get as much out of this program as I have ;-)

I am currently doing two Multi-Level-Marketing programs I would Like To recommend. The first is www.hennenvitamins.com . I started on this MLM because I was excited about the product. They carry whole food multi vitamin and do a good job of explaining why the synthetic multi vitamin you are taking might actually have negative affects to your body. They also carry 4 Food supplements which you can check out at the site. The product I became hooked on was healthy weight loss supplement. I started at 300#'. and have seen easily duplicated weight loss in the Month I have been on it. I last weighed in at 283#'s. A 17# weight loss. With so many Americans trying to lose weight this is an easy sell.

The second MLM I got into was due to my family, My oldest son John started using ACAI Juice which contains Magnates (spelling)and other ingredients high in ANTI-OXIDANTS , he was so excited about the product he told his younger brother, who told my wife, now were all using it. Anti-oxidants are important6 because the fight free radicals in your blood. Free radicals are what make us age, they also attack your brain and have some impact on cancers and tumors. (My 6 year old has 30% survival chance from Neuro Blastoma, so you can see why this is important to us. This company is poised on the edge of a great expansion, which I like because the timing is right. I love the structure of this MLM, it is a 3x4 Forced Matrix, Which means even if someone in your group does not work, there is spill over and he will want to stay in because he is making money. This is the website for the juice; http://www.acaiplus.com/hennen12048
