I've actually been starting to prep my own tech blog, but I would totally rather do it under the GT / nerds on the rocks banner.

The more the merrier

What are you going to write about exactly?

I wouldn't be against roasting members, nor helping with a zombie survival guide.

Lord knows I enjoy insulting people and then telling them how to get away from the undead.

Mainly about the following industries: phones, computers, videogames, gadgetry in general, and their respective parent companies. I'm doing it from more of a business point of view however.

Cool cool.

The rest is more so I have my ideas down on paper.

Thinking of doing cross media themed weeks.

Like characters/franchises that cross over to another nerd-dom realms.

Like Sonic, Mario, Mortal Kombat, Street Fighter, Batman, Spider-man, Star Wars, James Bond, etc

Some may work better than others but we shall see.

Very nifty idea! I'm not around much, and am a flake, but will definitely be checking it out regularly.

Wait a second!

Kitana's back!

Its an infant site so throw ideas at me, and I'll see if it fits.

The problem I'm gonna run into is keeping it all thematic.

Again more for personal notes, but its out in the open.

-A weekly drink suggestion. Perhaps nerd-related or tied into the site's theme for the week.
First one is the Nerd Bomb Shot

Nostalgia with a Twist for potential name.

To go with your recent tv watching: Sonic Screwdriver recipe

Know there's a bunch named after comic book characters. Any after video games?

Kitana85 · 06-14-2010, 10:56 AM

Doing ok, I wander back every few years. Just haven't really had anything to say

Xantar · 06-17-2010, 03:28 PM

What a nice guest post you've got on the front page there. You should get some more of those.

Ok, seriously, I do want to know what you guys think about the subject. Is this the end of stealth gameplay as we know it?

Teuthida · 06-17-2010, 06:57 PM

The person with the best track record of actually appearing on the show is a guest? Well ok...

Now whoever wrote the Elixir Mixer article is a frickin' genius and I'd gladly give him oral.

BreakABone · 07-11-2010, 11:34 PM

So the site has been up and running for like month and a half give or take, perhaps a bit more.

And been trying out different features to see what works, and what doesn't.

But now want to bring people in (well been trying, but now asking on the forums too!) so that we can get a more steady stream of content.

So if you have any interest in taking over any current series (outside of Zombies Guide and Elixir Mixer) or has ideas for a new feature. Let's hear it!

A delayed response:

Overall I disagree. I do see your points, but I thought that the stealth elements have always worked well enough in the Metal Gear Solid Series. Is some of it simply remembering where guards are the 2nd and 3rd times through? Sure. Does that mean it is any less fun? No, not to me anyways. I would be somewhat dissapointed if the next Metal Gear Solid rising goes away from stealth completley. Well, maybe I wouldnt be that upset because obviously Rising does not star Solid Snake. But I believe we will eventually see Metal Gear Solid 5, maybe starring Snake maybe not, and I will not be happy if it goes away with the stealth.
