Yeah, I'm super amped about a x-strike care package. I also hope for another return to MLG. We'll see what happens when I get back. I do have my laptop for PC gaming, my PSP and 3DS. But finding time to play anything is the hard part. I go straight to bed after work. I did ship my 360 over, but as I posted on my site, there's damn near no space for it. Though there are PS3's and 360 set up in morale tents here. There was even a guy playing Demon's Souls on Sunday. Hopefully in the next few weeks my options will open up.

[Ekkebus]

That helps. Portable seems like the way to go. Do you have a copy of Tactics Ogre for PSP? Cuz I know someone who has a few extra copies...

[Rail]

SHHH TIM GOD YOU'RE RUINING IT

But seriously Wood, do you have a copy of that game? I can't remember if I'd seen it at your place or not since I think the last PSP game I asked to borrow from you was... the 3rd Birthday (which I ended up passing on during Black Friday online deal shopping with Tim since you had said it was only okay).

[Wood]

I did pick up a copy of it through PSN. I plan on picking up a vita so I could copy all my digital games over. Still trying to get my workout routine down. Oh, and this summer I'm going to Korea for a year too. Fucking amped! Might even get a chance to catch a train to see GSL live and shit. Fuck yes! Hopefully I can line up my mid tour with MAgFest, and maybe even get England next. That way Wil will have no reason to miss MAGFest.

[Ekkebus]

That's awesome. I'm glad you're heading to some nicer places. Are you still going to be back in the US after your current tour?

Awesome. Hope it goes all good.
Heh as if I could ever have a reason to miss MAGFest. Actually i'll prob make MX my last one for a few years. As amazing as it is, it kinda eats up my money making the trip over, even if I just come for a week. I shall see though.
But if you made it over here to sunny ole blighty there's always a bed for you Wood. Same goes for everyone in our community

[Wood]

Oh, I'm definetly heading back to the US of A, but my time will be limited as I won't even have time to get a place to stay. I will be doing my best to visit Buffalo again. I got a lot of holidays to make up for: Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years, Single Awareness Day, St. Patty's Day, and Cinco de Mayo, cause fuck the French.

[shadowdancer21b]

Agreed. Cinco De Mayo is a great day.

[quarky]

Pardon the intrusion, but I'm gonna be sending something out soon and it just occurred to me that your rank isn't in the addy you gave us like it was last year. Is that necessary or is just your name fine?

[Wood]

Yeah, make sure you don't put rank on the address. It's that way on purpose.

[pappy]

Can't trust those damn airmen.
Or officers.
Or senior NCO's.
Not any of 'em, really.

[quarky]

Okay thanks! I wanted to be sure! ^_^;;

[Wood]

You know, I havn't played chrono trigger in a long time, and I hear the DS version is the best. And hey! I brought my 3DS with me! (hint hint)

[Wood]

Ok, you know what makes days off better? Spending a day off with a Cuban cigar. Cause there's no such thing as embargoes when you're overseas.

[Wood]

Hey guys! Sorry for not updating this for a while. Though I have been really good about my blog, except for missing Christmas week. Work out here kinda sucks, but I found out that after I'm done with Korea, I'll be going to Yokota AB in Japan! Very, VERY excited to go, but it'll be quite some time before I get to go. Just gotta survive out here, as I still have quite a few more months to go.

Waking up each morning and seeing my twitter feed blow up about #MAGFest got me a little upset that I wasn't there. My post about the news that Nobuo playing still stands. I'm glad to hear from your podcast that MAGFest is still the greatest drinking party to feature games and music, and I'm hoping I'll be able to make January my month for my mid-tour, so I can actually go next year. Plus, if I go, I'll make sure Beth goes as well. Count on it!

Also, I'm really hoping I can get the MAGFest care package out here soon. It's really annoying when I keep hearing "You should have been at MAGFest", or "What happens at MAGFest, stays at MAGFest". Trust me, with the exception of breaking my own legs or causing myself bodily harm, I would have done damn near anything to skip this deployment and go to MAGFest. I definitely want to see all the footage coming out of the event.

Also, I managed to get myself big into cigar smoking. Got myself a ton of cigars, a travel humidor, a lighter, and some funky type of punch cutter. Good times, and a lot of them I'll have to start giving away before they start to go bad.
