Rainbow Blaugust

I am sure you are all sick to death of Blaugust, which is why I thought I would have a wee break before posting this one. The complete write up of who participated and how many posts they managed can be found by clicking here. I just wanted to mention I actually did achieve 31 …

#Blaugust2019 – The aftermath

I saw a decent jump in views during my posting bloodbath for Blaugust. In the last 30 days the Blaugust posts have been the main target which is great 🙂 But I noticed some of the posts only had a couple of views in total for the last 30 days. Having a couple of days …

#Blaugust2019 – OMG I DID IT!

All 31 days of August had a post. I cannot believe it. I have absolutely no idea how I managed to do it honestly. It get very hard towards the last week – I was just running out of ideas. There were plenty of writing prompts but I had written about them previously (or recently) …

#Blaugust2019 – Classic Lies

So I know, I know!! I posted less than a few days ago saying I wasn’t going to jump into Classic again, but then Apophis mentioned some people in our first original guild wanted to get the band back together and I got all giddy and Classic crazed. I was working from home due to …

#Blaugust2019 – Cliff Empire

A few posts back, I spoke about games I was interested in playing after doing a super brief search and probably the one I am most keen on is called “Cliff Empire”. It is available on steam for about $17 or so and I think I am gong to download it this weekend and give …

#Blaugust2019- Warcraft Tattoos

Can you tell I am scraping for topic ideas now…OMG this is so darn hard. A post every day! But whilst I was trolling twitter for other Blaugust writers to steal writing prompts from, I found this and had to stop and appreciate the awesomeness. Here is Algalon from @Warcraft Tattoo after my session #1. …

#Blaugust2019 – Classic

I won’t be playing Classic, in fact I haven’t even installed it. I played on the beta weekend a few months ago and whilst I was all nostalgic for the game, it was enough of a taste to remind of why I don’t need to go back there. This tweet reinforced that in my mind. …

#Blaugust2019 – Why do I actually blog?

This is a question I have had running through my brain the last few weeks quite a lot. The answer is I am not sure, I just enjoy writing posts and like to know people are reading them. I think it shows insight to how I view games and what excites or angers me in …

#Blaugust2019 -Backlogs?

One of the things I have stumbled across since starting this challenge when reading other blogs is this idea of a backlog. Of games. This blew my mind hole so far open I am not sure I will ever be able to close it again. I am such a WoW addict, I had never considered …

#Blaugust2019 – The Queen’s Court of mischief

The guild actually killed the Court last week, but I was not online for it as I was at home, playing (and losing) Harry Potter board games with friends. So I was pretty excited when our next raid night we started a fresh heroic run and managed to get all the way to the Court …

#Blaugust2019 – IRL Collecting

What do I collect? I can’t collect real life mounts or pets (although that is a tempting idea) I do have a thing with collecting Pinny Arcade pins. I am always open for donations to either keep or swap with people at our yearly pilgrimage to PAX. PAX for those unfamiliar is a gaming expo …

#Blaugust2019 – Creator appreciation – Music

Music is one of those things I want in my life playing all the time. Sadly I need to be talking to people and watching other things, so I can’t have music going as much as I would like. It is a huge part of my emotional rollercoaster balancing as well. It can put me …

#Blaugust 2019 – Creator appreciation – INTPIPOMO 2018 RESULTS

You might remember, towards the end of last year I did INTPIPOMO….well I did some of it. Not all of it. I only managed to post a few photos, but that was enough apparently to score me a little random win. Who would have thought 🙂 You can read the full post here but I …

#Blaugust2019 – Creator appreciation – Comics

I thought I would post about some of my favourite comics which i read and follow on social media so I know when new ones have come out. Belzebubs – is without a doubt my current favourite. We haven’t had an actual comic for a little bit but I absolutely love this comic of a …

#Blaugust2019 – Creator appreciation – Youtube

Hubby and I watch more youtube than streaming and TV combined these days. I am not sure how it happened but we just enjoyed watching content people have created. We even toyed with the idea of creating a youtube channel ourselves but neither of us could really spare the time to edit, create and come …

#Blaugust2019 – Creator appreciation – Artists

The writing ideas for this week are about appreciating people who create content. Things I like watching, buying, seeing and being involved in. I thought it might be cool for me to break down into categories but who knows. I may be out of steam by the end of a few posts. Today I am …

#Blaugust 2019 – Fright Night

We had a night out with some friends to see “A midnight Visit, which is a warehouse converted into various rooms with different themes and actors doing Edgar Allan Poe scenes. Some rooms were creepy as hell and others were a little meh. I felt a little creeped out in the streamer room and i …

#Blaugust 2019 – Couldn’t be done, they said.

I didn’t want to raid this week given the current state of my brain, but I was online fiddling with my toon at raid time changing gear, getting chants (Thanks Oui) and pottering around. Anyway whilst sitting in discord I got outed by a few people about why I wasn’t in the raid, so I …

#Blaugust2019 – Mental health

This is a trigger warning for the below on multiple fronts. Proceed with caution. This was a post I was deciding if I should post or not and if it has gone live, I obviously decided against my better judgement to let it go public. It is one of those stigma breaking things I need …

#Blaugust2019 – VR and PS4

I tried “Beat Sabre” for the first time months ago at Sian and Michael’s place. Since then it has been a game I could not get out of my head and one I wanted to buy. Hubby and I even spent weeks pouring over all the VR options and prices to determine the best possible …
