MafiaWars has a TARDIS

Here is something that I stumbled across in MafiaWars (one of those silly Facebook games that I occasionally play)---a TARDIS. Ok, it is not a TARDIS; it is a chronobooth. It can be found in the Time Travel mystery crates. It is a rare (not sure what category it is in) with 109 attack and 133 defense. Gee, a chronobooth almost looks exactly like a TARDIS, doesn't it?

Catnip abuse Facebook meme

For fun, I wrote the following Facebook status and am trying to see how many of my friends I can get to copy and paste it to their status.

Please copy and paste this as your status if you know cat who is doing too much catnip. There are many cats who are afflicted with this habit, causing them to act wild, then sleep off their nip-high. Catnip makes cats less productive and sometimes makes dogs look more intelligent (dogs really are not intelligent at all). Encourage all cats to give up the nip.

Why? Because I too want to be an evil FB meme god.

Facebook Games

One of the comments I occasionally get is that I play too many games on Facebook. Some of my business and writing friends think that I should be doing more networking on Facebook; others believe that I should be doing more writing; my occult friends believe that I should be doing more ritual work if I am not going to actually do any writing; my professors don't know how much time I spend on Facebook (hehe), therefore they have no opinion of my activity there. And my wife believes that I should spend my gametime cleaning the house instead.

I am not sure how I found myself on Facebook. I had tried MySpace in the past, and a few other social networking platforms. None of which I spent any time on...I have a programmed aversion to tooting my own horn. Honestly, if it wasn't for the fact that I like keeping up with friends on Facebook and playing the games, I probably would spend less than an hour there per year.

I started my game playing routine there with Zynga Zoo game...I was an avid player until they recently introduced "feeding"...it has became just another "click and collect" game. At the moment, the three I am playing the most are MafiaWars, Vampire Wars and Cafe World. FarmVille I drift in and out on...it is not a high priority for me (I do like my virtual dog).

Now, I will admit that I do some networking on Facebook (besides friending other occult-oriented writers and fellow occultists)...I have gaming friends. Yes, that is right; I work harder at networking with other Facebook gamers than business-related networking. Sad, but true.

So if you like seeing what I am up to and getting the occasional update about my work, but hate my game updates, just remember---I am a silly person who is ok with advertising how many games I am playing, but hates to impose my own article links on you. (Heck, I post more links to other people's articles than my own.) My game time (which happens whether I am on Facebook or not) allows me to think that I am not just another spammy advertiser.
