Hey everyone. Sorry I haven't posted in a few days, but I've been really tied down with homework, World of Warcraft, Nintendo and Marti. Speaking of World of Warcraft, it's getting better and better with every second. I am level 18 now, and I am getting some kick-ass skills such as Soul Stone (which lets me ressurect, basically), and Searing Pain (which is a quick, hard hitting damage spell). My Imp is my main pet, as my Voidwalker just can't cut it against my Imp. I did the Deadmines yesterday. It took a whopping 2 and a hlaf hours to complete, but it was fun while it lasted, and I got some great loot. I have been visiting the Auction House a lot as well, getting some cool new gear.

Well, enough of the WoW factor, in the world of Tamagotchi's, they are still on PAUSE. I just don't have time for them at the moment, so I'm taking a break from them. In the world of Nintendo... ONLY 5 DAYS LEFT UNTIL EVERYTHING IS REVEALED!! And Episode #26 is gonna be a f**king amazing episode, I can tell you that. Lots of news, lots of excitement and lots of great discussion! w00t w00t!!

So yeah, that's about it from me for now, we are recording Episode #25 later on, so I will post after that to tell you how it went. See ya!

Grrrrr..... HOMEWORK IS SO G- ANNOYING!! We have had at least 5 hours worth in just 2 DAYS. I've only just finished it! So yeah, anyway... World of Warcraft is becoming too addictive. 1 hour ago, I discovered a wonderful little thing called the Battlegrounds. Now, this is awesome. You are with at least 10-15 other alliance members fighting real horde players. I have already got 47 honourable kills! It's so fun as well. I dunno whether I have posted this, but I'm level 16 at the moment. I am also hunting down 'Eagle' gear, as it's got good stats for a 'lock. So yeah, that's WoW for today. The tamagotchi's are on pause, I just don't have time for them right now. Gonna go phone Marti, later people!

2006-09-06T17:09:00.000+01:00

Well, today didn't go AS WELL as yesterday. One simple fact. Homework. And lots of it. At least 3 hours worth. And it's all in for tomorrow. Oh well, I've done most of it already. All in all, though, my day's gone well. I'm currently talking to Marti, well rather listening to her getting owned on Mario Kart DS. XP.

On World of Warcraft, I am now level 15 and 3/4 to level 16. I'm quite happy at the moment because I've got lots of good solid (by solid, I mean I know what I'm doing etc. I don't mean difficult) quests, a great guild some good party members that I frequently quest with.

I ended up watching the E4 Lost last night. It was brilliant. We got to find out why the survivors have been pressing the button every 108 minutes and why Michael let Henry go (well sort of).

And, before I go, I just have to say one thing... THE PS3 HAS BEEN DELAYED IN EUROPE UNTIL MARCH 2007!! Such sweet sounds to my ears. And with that glorious message, I shalt depart thee Blog....

2006-09-05T18:05:00.000+01:00

Well, the rest of my day went well. I've got a feeling that this year is gonna be the best year yet. I'm gonna get to know some people that I wouldn't normally know, and all my lessons are really good (so far).

I've just had a 2 hour sesh on WoW, in which me and this other guy attempted to cross the Burning Steppes. It would have been fairly easy, had we not been level 15 and 13. And when we did get to the end, it was a DEAD END!! Which is a bummer, because the reason we crossed it was to get to Dun Morogh (the Dwarven area) to complete a quest (Stonepike Deliveries, or something like that). So yeah, not very successful on that front.

But yeah, all in all, today has been great. Anyway, that's all I have to say except.... oh shit, I've already seen the Channel 4 Lost, so no Lost for me tonight. XP, see ya!

2006-09-05T13:01:00.000+01:00

Hey everyone. I'm just at home on my lunch break from school. Gotta go back in 20 mintues though... oh well, I think that this year is gonna be the best year yet! All the girls in my form think I'm weird or wrong or something because I 'did stuff' with Marti when I went down to see her. Oh well, who gives a shit what they think. They all still look fit!

Got a bit of WoW in this morning, it was OK, I finished a few quests and picked up a ton of new ones. Lots of 'visit this person in this town' kinda quests. Which is good, because it's nice, easy EXP.

I've decided that while I'm at school, I'm going to put my tamagotchi's on PAUSE when I'm at school. It saves the hassle of taking them to school and getting caught with them, leading to a) DITTO!! and b) COMPLETE HUMILIATION (in the CSS/Quake voice).

Well, that's all from me for now, I may blog later. See ya!

2006-09-04T16:12:00.000+01:00

I am currently editing episode 24 of Nintentalk. It's hell! I haven't had so much trouble editing a show since episode 1!! But, I'm nearly done, and it'll hopefully be worth it, considering this was one of the best episodes we've ever done. My V3 tama is doing fine, it is currently in it's toddler stage and it's a Tamatchi. I may blog later on, I don't know.

See ya!

2006-09-04T13:10:00.000+01:00

Yay! My V3 has finally arrived. It's a boy and it's called Hicef (don't ask, just came into my head). Can someone tell me if a boy and a boy tamagotchi can still mate? Because I need to know. Thanks. That's all I wanted to say for now, see ya!

2006-09-04T10:57:00.000+01:00

Well, I've just woke up. I had a bowl of Frosties for my breakfast. And they tasted great. And now I'm blogging.

Lol. Steve Irwin died!! Now, I really, really couldn't care less because he was an annoying shit, but he didn't even get ripped to shreds by an angry croc. He got stung... by a stingray. How ironic.

My V3 should be arriving in about 30 minutes. I will blog to tell you if it has or not. My V2 keeps getting annoying visits from the matchmaker, which I don't want, because I'm breeding my V2 with my V3 when I get it.

Didn't get much WoW in last night. My computer crashed after about 10 minutes of playing it, and after that, I didn't see the point of going on it again. So, I'm still level 14.

Nobody's bid on my Soul Calibur II Strategy Guide. If you want to, check out the link in the previous post. I will keep you posted (no pun intended) on my eBay stories and my tamagotchi stories in a blog later on today. But, for now, it's goodbye from me!

2006-09-03T19:39:00.000+01:00

Hey everyone, just finished recording. And what a epic of an episode it was.The discussion lasted a whopping 30 minutes compared to the usual 10-15 minutes. But then... a curse was laid on Nintentalk. Tom lagged out. Then Skype started crashing. Then, when we thought we got it sorted, my computer crashed. Fucking peice of shit. But, we eventually got it wrapped up and I must say, what an episode it was. I think it was probably one of the best episodes we did.

My tamagotchi is currently brushing his teeth. Oh joy. And, as I type this, I am in a conference with all the of the hosts from Nintentalk. Yay. I think I might go and play some World of Warcraft now. Oh yeah, the train station was pretty boring. My mum had had a drink as per usual, so it was embarrasing. That by the way, suggests why my parents split up. But yeah, enough of that, I'm gonna go WoW now. Over and out people!!

2006-09-03T12:26:00.000+01:00

Yay! I finally got ONM!! It's probably one of their best issues yet. And the free gift is god damn awesome. So yeah, enough about that. Had to go to my mum's last night. Which, in case you didn't already know, suggest's that my parents are divorced. Was on the phone with Marti for about 2 hours last night. There's nothing else to do at mum's though. Well, there is a Playstation. As in the original PSX, but I don't touch that thing anymore.

In the world of Tamagotchi, my V3 still hasn't arrived. However, that is probably because there is 'no post on Sundays' (as stated in the first Harry Potter film). So I should get it tomorrow. Although my hopes aren't high.

We are recording Episode #24 of Nintentalk later on today, and, for some strange reason, I can't wait to record it. That's probably because we actually have good stuff to talk about for once though.

In the world of World of Warcraft, I am now level 14 and straight after I post this I am going to go and play it. Well, immediately after I visit TamaTalk, Serebii and my MySpace. Yeah, that's my to do list for this afternoon. Oh damn... I have to go and see my mum off at the station, she going on holiday and she says I HAVE to go and see her off. Which is rather boring. But oh well.

I think that's about it for this post, erm... hmm... yeah, I would say so. Check back later for a blog on how recording went and other stuff. See ya!

2006-09-02T11:02:00.000+01:00

Well, another boring day in the life of me so far. Still haven't got my ONM, my dad says I've gotta walk into town and get it myself. Boring! I have just listed a Soul Calibur 2 Official Strategy Guide on eBay, so if anyone wants to buy it, go here. My tama is still doing good, and I still haven't recieved my V3. Grrrr.... oh well, I should definately get it tomorrow. Gonna go play some World of Warcraft now, so I will post later when I have ONM. See ya!

2006-09-01T21:17:00.000+01:00

Hey everyone. So, concerning what I said in the previous post... I didn't get ONM. But I'm definately getting it tomorrow, so yeah, I'll just have to wait another 12 hours before I can listen to some classic Legend of Zelda tunes (free gift). I've just finished another World of Warcraft session (3 hours) but I didn't get much done this time, just got a few quest items. My tamagotchi is currently sleeping. And erm... that's about it. Not much to say now, I said it all earlier. Should hopefully get my V3 tama tomorrow, and the Playstation 2 eBay listing that I mentioned in my previous post will be up in a few days.

Post tomorrow, see ya!

2006-09-01T14:10:00.000+01:00

Hey everyone. I've just finished a whopping six hour World of Warcraft session, in which I got from level 11 to level 12. Doesn't sound much, but leveling isn't easy on that game. I am just in the middle of the first gym on Pokemon Gold (I restarted it) and I am owning him! Oooh, Rocky grew to level 11! Just thought you'd like to know. So yeah, I didn't wake up until 12 today, which isn't good, considering I'm diabetic. Yeah, I forgot to say in yesterday's post, but I'm diabetic, which means two injections a day and blood tests. It's all a loada crap though. But then again, life is crap.

I got into a bit of trouble with Marti last night. I didn't phone her, and now she's not in the best of moods with me. It wasn't my fault my friends were round though!

In the world of Tamagotchi, nothing much has been going on. I'm still waiting for my V3 to arrive, and my V2 is doing just fine. Although I did get a bit worried when I saw him walking around the bottom of the screen with a rucksack on. I don't want him to leave yet!! And I've just beat Falkner on Pokemon. Yay!

I've just realised that ONM is out today. And I need it!! But I can't get hold of my dad. Oh well, I'm sure he'll go get it for me later on.

One more thing before I post this. I am selling my Playstation 2 on eBay, so if you want to buy it, send me an email or something. I haven't actually set up the auction yet, but I will do soon, so watch this space. I will post a small post with the URL link for the listing once it's up.
Post later on people, see ya!

2006-08-31T23:54:00.000+01:00

So, first post. Well, I will start by introducing myself. My name is Ben David Walker, I'm 14 and I live in England. I'm a big fan of Nintendo, so much so that I have a podcast called Nintentalk dedicated to the great games company. Just listen to it to see how much I love them. Erm... yeah... other stuff about me... hmm... yeah, I'm going out with a gorgeous gal called Marti. You can see more about her at her MySpace.

World of Warcraft is playing a major part in my life at the moment. I have recently gotten back into it, and am currently in the process of playing a Female Human Warlock. And I must say, it's the best class I've ever played. I'm quite into the whole MMORPG thing though. I've played numerous ones, including Tibia, Ragnarok (yeah, it's an illiegal server, but it's tonnes better than the proper servers) and MapleStory. I'm still playing Maple, but not as much as I used to. Here are my details, in case you are interested.

MapleStory
Server: Bera
Name: Dharmai

World of Warcraft
Server: Lightbringer (I think)
Name: Ellena

So yeah, that's that. Lost! God that program is good at the moment. I'm currently doing the whole 'The Lost Experience' thing on the net. It brings a whole new dimension to the program. A couple of other TV shows I'm really into are: Prison Break, Big Love, House and Grey's Anatomy.

Wow, I didn't know I could write so much about myself. Erm... there was one more thing... hmm... oh yeah! I've recently got back in Tamagotchi. I currently have one V2 tama, but am awaiting a V3 in the post. I have a Mametchi on my V2. I'm so proud. And I've just realised how sad I now sound. But yeah, everyone should pick one up. They are real good fun!

Well, I think that's about all I can think of to put right now, so I'm gonna post it.

Hope you enjoyed my first blog post, see ya later people!!
