HAWX and GSoC

HAWX, GSoC, Work, Conference, A Summary of the Week!

Well GSoC 2009 first stage is done, applications are now closed, next point on the timeline is the 20th of April, where we find out if we have been accepted.

 

In other News Work today and Sunday is cancelled since HarderTimez is no longer rocking in the Terrace as well as Stylus. On the up side (sorta) Sage (my bosses Boss) have got us in early on Saturday (well um today), 14 hour shift anyone? (Start 3pm finish 5pm)

 

I purchased Hawx the other day for my Xbox360, enjoyed the demo. However the story might be a little short, finished in 8 hours, straight, on normal. So will up the difficulty and go again.

Flying with assistance off, is rather different, especially when in Expert Control Mode. But I digress.

Playing over LIVE is rather good too! Not tried Co-Op Yet tho.

 

Finally its the final two days of prep for the Nation Student Radio Conference, to be held at University of Leeds, with LSRfm.com, and having been given a certain set of keys, life is a hell of a lot easier.

 

Anywho gonna get on Halo3 Over Live and do some Team Flag, thats this weeks DoubleEXP. Weekend!

 

Woot!

H3W Problems

So I’m an Administrator/Forum Tech over at Halo 3 Wheelmen we recently had to move servers as the free server we were on, was over loading, and taking resources away from sites hosted on it that paid to be there.

So I’m an Administrator/Forum Tech over at Halo 3 Wheelmen we recently had to move servers as the free server we were on, was over loading, and taking resources away from sites hosted on it that paid to be there.

In part due to the fact that H3W were featued on Bungie Favourites, and in part due to my Shoutbox (IRC Style PHP Driven chat), munching BandWidth.

So we changed servers, now with GoDaddy, same thing just happened, amusingly GoDaddy just CHMOD’ed the file to 000 (and locked it so I can’t change it back) and so it stopped working auto magically.

So for now we are using my dev version shoutbox for LSRfm.com over on Katie such fun, gonna have to recode and host of 360gaming.net we shall see!

Anywho back to work, GSoC Application(s) to work on.
