Holy puu

The betapalooza went really well. Three people showed up locally, and, what, 15 remotely? Some crazy number. May not seem big to you but it's the most players we've had crowded into the devchat at once, and a result of new developers dragging their friends in. I am well pleased.

It's also clear to be that I need to spend one more full day on Fluxx. There's bugs I swore I fixed months ago still hanging around. It feels like something got reverted at some point. Sigh.

Apparently, Nintendo's official name for the system heretofore named the Revolution is: the Nintendo Wii. Pronounced whee!. I think this is brilliant, and not just because it's named after pee, though certainly that's some of it.

Also everyone in the office just laughed at me saying "I'm gonna start a wii tag."

Zarf's been sharing a lengthy thread on IFMud with people coming up rapid-fire with "better" names, like the NIntendo GameCrate and Nintendo on a Plane. I did suggest the Nitendo Puu as an add-on of some sort. I'm waiting for Sony to rename the PlayStation 3 to the PlayStation Special in order to keep up with the new scat theme...

Wii? Eww.

But I'll try to keep an open mind. Supposedly it'll be out this fall...

I just know that I've been waiting patiently for months but now I'm desperate to have a Wii.

Our mutual friend ruthling recommended your LJ and you seem like the kind of person I need to make friends with!
