Black out dates The last two nights had been rather... strange. I felt tired at around midnight, and just fell asleep before I knew what happened. At 5am I told myself to wake up, but next thing I know it was 8 in the morning. The weird thing is that it happened two nights in a row! Looks like my body needed to recharge. I'm working on adding a section to highlight new items on the deals page. I figured that we can't truly get rid of announcement spam until we can transfer all the new item releases away also. Meanwhile, I'm meeting Swarf tomorrow during lunch. Hope to get some understanding of the work behind restoring zOMG. Wish me luck!

Swarf exists. He seemed to be in the void for a bit there. Good luck with the meeting.

You should get some rest in Lanzer, you've done so much on Gaia in such a short amount of time. You deserve a rest! Thanks for getting Gaia back.

Blackouts huh. Are you now beginning to understand what I am telling you? You are pushing yourself too hard, Dude! We understand the need to prove the site worthy of sponsorships and all that. But please! NOT at the expense of your health!

Blackouts aren't good, you need to make sure you get more sleep. I understand that Gaia needs a lot of work but you need to be healthy and rested to be able to make good decisions for Gaia. The work doesn't all have to be done "RIGHT NOW", we can be patient. smile

I'm glad you finally got in touch with Swarf. Hopefully he has positive things to say about the possibility of bringing zOMG back in some form. I'm going to think positive thoughts....

You, sir, were pooped! I hope that the next time you catch 8 hours of sleep, it isn't because it snuck up on you. xd Thank you for all your hard work! Fingers crossed for some good news tomorrow, and thank you for going through the trouble of finding out.

You know, you've been told many times by us that you should get some good sleep. Be in top condition when you meet Swarf so you won't find it hard to take in what he says. ^.~

Drink some nice tea or coffee before you go! yum_tea

Please make sure to get enough sleep. It can really be bad for your health with out enough sleep. At the latest 7 hours a night.

I would be awesome to see Zomg back! I hope it goes well!

Hi Lanzer have a great lunch with Swarf and rest well <3
I'm so happy you're really seriously thinking of zOMG. it's the reason my BF actually made a gaia account adn we cleared the game together but after it was taken down my BF never went back to Gaia xD

Sounds like you have been working hard so sleep is healthy. Reducing announcements and zomg is certainly two big requests so thanks for jumping on those so soon.

Umm Lanzer I think you might need some rest.
But wow...restoring zOMG would be amazing, so I can definitely be patient knowing that's in the works.
Hope all went well with the lunch though!
Thank you for all your work and dedication heart

Reading your journal takes me back to reading the G-CORP journals of Labtech 101!
Thank you so much for all of your hard work! Be sure to find some time for rest, and remember to treat yourself when you can!

Thank you for trying to restore zOMG!

Used to have the same problem. I was to the point of setting multiple alarms and booby-trapping them so they couldn't be deactivated by a sleepwalking zombie...which worked fine until I began sleeping straight through all the alarm cycles (and the maintenance crew that showed up at the apartment to investigate). sweatdrop

blackouts? redface are you sure u haven't been "probed" by aliens checking for neural oscillation, or brainwaves, lo-tech style. or possibly, your other half is letting loose and forgetting to invite you along.... gonk ..... on a serious note, tho, just remember, your health comes first.

Thank you so much for coming back. I am absolutely thrilled that zOMG will be refurning aswell. I loved playing when I was in highschool. I loved it. Ive never been able to find as good a game as zOMG to blow some steam or kill a boring night at home. I had to take a hiatus when they discontinued zOMG for some bugs and hackers. It broke my heart. Because I had spent so much time and effort into levelig up. I had also spent real money on the game. Lord knows I loved using gc in the shops for powerups and orbs. Thank you so much, really. I am beyond excited to start playing again. I may actually call out of work just for zOMG. xp heart
