So last week, Alwin was unenviable enough to leave his camera at my apartment after watching the state game. So me and the boys brainstormed over a couple pints how we could teach him to never do that again. We decided to fill his camera up with goofy pics, but we couldn’t figure out how we would attain that.

Finally, I decided to ask the bartender at the Ale House for a pen and paper and wrote “Alwin, you suck!” on it to see how many people we could get photos with while holding the sign. I guess the results speak for themself.

[editors note: none of these people had to be coerced into these photos. People jumped at the chance to flip off a camera and hold a sign proclaiming someone's suckitude]

I don’t think I need to say anymore.

So this is how it begins. We’ve put Holoween to rest and said goodbye to October, so we’re officially in the “Holiday Season”. In the game industry, this is when 95% of the awesome games come out.

I’ve done a pretty good job of barely playing games at home (just witness my paltry gamerscore) and as someone who handles games on a daily basis, it’s hard to really get excited about games that are coming out to the market. However, during the holiday season, all that gets thrown out the door, along with my social life and free time. I’ve even been preparing my apartment so that I can focus on putting all these games to bed in halfway decent time so that I’m not struggling with Super Mario Galaxy into the new year.

Yeah… pathetic.
