Out of the Blue

Still processing the news of the closure of the UGO, GameSpy, and 1UP websites. As I commented to loonyboi about this, all those properties ending up in the same hands seemed to make some change in this regard inevitable, so it's not like this was completely unexpected, but having all three sites go in the same firing squad is still a little shocking. Best of luck to all of those looking for work as a result of this.

Not sure if you have a policy about ads from companies that have been found to be nothing but a scam. Creston He hasn't responded to any of the multiple scam ad warnings I have sent him. How many times do I have to see "(insert city here) Mom finds secret to (insert secret here)" Good luck. I want to support the site, but between the takeover ads, loud popups, and scams, I am about to turn them all off again. Not everyone appreciates such an uncompromising dedication to virtue. So let us rest securely in the knowledge that total superiority is its own reward. Excelsior!
