2500 posts...

April 2008... seventeen years ago. That's where it all began.

2500 posts ago.

I never intended for this blog to become an exploration of two decades in my hobbies of roleplaying and wargaming...or for it to be an archive of my general musings over that time.

It's basically been a third of my life, and in that time I've had a few jobs, completed two university degrees, moved house nine times (spending 8 years at one house, two years at a house I know pay a mortgage on, and a succession of other rental properties as my life shifted dramatically a couple of times).

I've been bankrupt in that time, have scraped by (often needing two choose whether food, rent, electricity , or medicine were the priority from week to week...knowing I could afford one, maybe a second, while the other two would have to wait), and have occasionally had times when the only methods for survival were the kindness of charity groups, or the turnover of sales on my online gaming shopfront.

I've probably released 40 games or more in that time. Some of them accumulating some significant download numbers, many more being released with only minimal interest.

I've earned a few thousand dollars through the online stores...

The following are apparently my hottest selling titles over the 17 years.

  1. A Little Guide to LARP
  2. Tooth and Claw
  3. Catacomb Quest
  4. FUBAR
  5. The Law

I've always been meaning to make more games, but getting a life stabilised has been a struggle.

I don't even remotely know what the next 2500 posts will bring (or even if there are another 2500).

Water Testing her new Powers 

(I might finish that comic I started at some stage too)
