Well as most of you have probably noticed, our site was down all weekend pretty much. We got hit hard from Reddit.com due to our Level Up! comic and our host shut us down. It was probably time for us to move on from shared hosting anyway as our rising popularity has caused the site to slow and we were causing considerable trouble for others on our server (sorry!). As it stands, we're pretty much back up on our new host with just a bit more work to be done. Here's what you probably want to know:

• Today's podcast isn't up quite yet, but it should be soon.
• Old podcasts aren't all up yet, but last week's should be up now.
• Comments and forum posts made over the weekend may be lost. Sorry.
• The site should be faster now!

Please let me know of any issues you still see on the site by posting comments below. Thanks for your patience.

I thought I'd give you guys a taste of what's happening in the forums because we don't want you to miss out on something cool! I'm pretty happy with how the forums have grown so far. It's probably one of the 'kindest' forums I've seen related to videogames, so if you've sworn off forums in the past because of over-opinionated jerks, give ours a try! So what IS happening? Here are a few of the highlights:

• - RoadJCat has been tinkering with some video editing at put together this nice Top 10 Wii Games video (seen above). You may not agree with his picks, but there's some good gameplay footage there! He's got a collection of Wii videos he's posting here.
• - Sheppy has started an art challenge with a monthly theme. It's a great way for artists to get their creative juices flowing and get some constructive feedback about their work!
• - Into (non-videogame) Role-Playing Games? Anon has started quite a few of them in the Gaming forum. Check them out and join in when new ones open up!
• - The never-ending Video Game Wars are pretty fun as you must come up with a video game character that can beat the previous one posted (i.e. Thwomp smooshes Sonic). Jump in!
• - Lwelyk's Video Game Music Contest has been begging for a winner to Round 5. If you enjoyed our Trivia For You segment in the podcast, Lwelyk's contest is for you!

Ray and I have a difference of opinions on how the new Tim and Ray logos should be implemented, so I thought it would be fun to let you guys decide. Should they replace the old ones? Should they only apply to comics from this day forward? Vote below!

In this episode, Ray pulls a few fast ones on Tim, holding back the Topic of the Week as a surprise. It's like Christmas in August! Some regular segments appear as well as rambling randomness. Check it out!

More reviews to come in the near future!

Here's review number 2! Check out my review of Scrabble for the iPhone and iPod Touch by EA Mobile! I hope you appreciate my hard work as I am now unemployed with a huge vocabulary due to countless Triple Word Scores. One more review later today!
