Gamer Bling has two new reviews for you, and both involve walls on your table. Bendy Dungeon Walls are fast, and Castlemolds are as beautiful as you cna make them.
Little Ado about Nothing
Gamer Bling is a little behind on his reviews, since The Gamer Bling Official Companion prefers that all of Gamer Bling’s computer time be spent on pursuing new avenues of employment rather than aggrandizing his already bloated sense of self-importance.
So, in order to mollify the masses, by which Gamer Bling means the proletarian players who frequent this site and will lead the revolution to a brave new world filled with alpha gamers, this post will share some of the strange search engine terms that led other web surfers here.
Gamer Bling knows that folks search for “gii” and “dooooom” and “Einstürzende Neubauten” and other well-worn hand-tooled jokes from this site. But what occasionaly surprises him are some of the other results, including, but not limited to such terms as:
• cute chainmail websites - Okay, Gamer Bling is now officially cute. ![]()
• dentation in animals - McGruff says “Take a bite out of crime boring games.”
• crown royal dice cups - By which Gamer Bling hopes they don’t mean “athletic supporters.”
• what does the chair made of crown royal - When even the search engine gets tired, it’s time to quit.
• emo kids cutting there wrist - Gamer Bling would cut his wrist, too, if he couldn’t spell “their.”
• bling nudes - Gamer Bling will have to work on this.
• chain maille theory - It’s no longer a theory: it is now the Law of Chain Maille Coolness.
• lacefield - Hmm… Phil must be ego surfing.
• “stand and deliver” - Also results in an Adam and the Ants album.
• pencil drawings of reptilian monsters - Gleeeeek!
• flaming dice bling - Well, the folks form GayGamer.net endorsed Gamer Bling. Thanks gays guys!
• psychopathic bling - Umm…
• first mistake inventions - Gamer Bling has no idea why this ended up here.
• antimatter + matter chain reaction - Results in the death of this blog as we know it. As if Gamer Bling isn’t already doing enough to destroy this.
How Kewl Are They?
They are so cool that two members of Gamer Bling’s gaming group have already bought some, and yours truly hasn’t even finished the review yet! C’mon, guys, Gamer Bling is trying to install a new fence in his back yard! Have a little patience, will ya?
Gamer Bling is talking about Castlemolds from Hirst Arts Fantasy Architecture. Go. Buy. Make. And tell Mr. Hirst that Gamer Bling sent you.
Real Virtuality
One of the goals of role-playing, in fact, one of the facets of the Ultimate Role-Playing Experience™, is the blurring of the line between fantasy and reality.
The most common example of blurring fantasy and reality is found in singles’ bars at closing time, and is generated by a presence of alcohol in excess of common sense.
Another is created by virtue of prop bling, which also blurs the line between table-top role-playing and larping. It’s one thing to have an entry on your character sheet that says you have 300 gold. It’s another to have a pouch with 300 pieces of fake coinage. And it’s entirely another ot have 300 actual gold coins.
So while Gamer Bling aspires to the third example, he is often required to make do with the second. To that end, today Gamer Bling presents two prop-style bling products: Fantasy Coins and Magic Decks. Buy and enjoy!
Gleek’s New Career
It is no longer April Fool’s Day (other than the fact that any day that the Gamer Bling Official Companion continues to stay married to him qualifies, at some level, as a fool’s day), so it is with great fanfare and all seriousness that Gamer Bling imparts to you the news that Gleek is now an agricultural amphibian.
To find out what the heck Gamer Bling is talking about, go read the denouement at the bottom of the AvatarArt review.
“Title” Update
K, so one of Gamer Bling’s loyal readers let him know that the “tool tip” pop-ups don’t work on any browser other than IE.
In case you didn’t know, if you hover your mouse over an illo on this site, a quick pop-up window gives you a description. Sort of like footnotes in a book.
So Gamer Bling has fixed all of the illos so that they shoudl now work with Firefox, Mozilla, and Mac browsers.
Gamer Bling Can’t Believe It
It has happened.
Gamer Bling expected that traffic would heat up when he posted the Ultimate DM Screen of Dooooom!
And indeed it did. As of right now, 9:00 p.m. EST, the page for said blingy screen has been viewed as often as the Gamer-Bling.com home page. Which means that very soon it will have been visited more often.
That’s more views in four weeks than the home page has had in nine months.
The sad part is that this means most of those people who are dropping in for prurient and lascivious surfing are missing out on the wonderfulness that is the rest of this website. And your comments. And lolcats.
Gamer Bling is glad you know better. Thank you for your support.
I Got Wood for Dice
And leather, too.
What started as an unintentional innuendo in Settlers of Catan has evolved into an announcement of two new reviews for dice and rolling. Specifically, dice cups and dice trays.
And while we’re on innuendos, let’s not forget that role-playing game that had an entire section of their combat chapter devoted to Marital Arts. Hey, it made for some interesting reading. Gamer Bling just wishes he could remember the game’s title. Argh.
Even More Ultimate than Before!
Gamer Bling now has a picture of the dark side of the moon other side of the Ultimate DM Screen of Dooooom!
That’s right, secret details that were heretofore unknown to mortal gaming minds. So read it now before Scully and Mulder try to find out why Gamer Bling’s website suddenly vanished…
They Arted Again
One of Gamer Bling’s loyal readers has not-so-humbly requested that his character art be presented for your persual as well, with the purpose of giving you readers a greater indication of the breadth of mad art skillz possessed by the top… men at AvatarArt. (And probably also so this loyal reader can win a $5 bet, but Gamer Bling is okay with that.)
So here it is. Take a look. It’s pretty keen.
