I Has A Bird

Posted on March 25, 2008 by Scott Jennings| 20 Comments

This morning, I couldn’t shake the feeling I was being watched.

Turns out I was.

Now it’s pecking the window. I think it wants something.

    It could be the reincarnated soul of someone who was enraged over the 15 minute outage (“DON’T THEY TEST THIS GAME BEFORE THEY RELEASE IT?!?! THEY’RE PROBABLY IN THE BACK DRINKING COFFEE AND LAUGHING!!1″) during the DAoC release.

    I wouldn’t open the window if I were you.

    Oh sorry, I’ll call him off if he’s bothering you. I sent him to try to get any tidbits of information he could about TEH MMORPG TO END ALL MMORPGs.

    Oh yeah, and grats! on getting a nice shiney engine:

    Made me think of Edgar Allen Poes poem “The Raven”, you better watch out ;-)

    Verse 1 (of many):
    Once upon a midnight dreary, while I pondered weak and weary,
    Over many a quaint and curious volume of forgotten lore,
    While I nodded, nearly napping, suddenly there came a tapping,
    As of some one gently rapping, rapping at my chamber door.
    `’Tis some visitor,’ I muttered, `tapping at my chamber door -
    Only this, and nothing more.’

    Thx for a nice blog :-)

    Same thing happened to me!

    Don’t think it’s the same bird, but even so … they’re definitely trying to make first contact:

    Nice engine sir, give us more info or your feathered friend is gonna get plucked.

  • Interesting

    Same thing has been happening to us in Seattle. There are two or three finches? that have been pecking at our bedroom window for over 2 weeks. They show up most days, and fly against/peck at the window for 4 to 5 hours. It’s pretty surreal.

    This reminds me of a cadence song from boot camp.

    A little birdie, with a little bill,
    Perched himself, on my window sill.
    I lured him in, with a piece of bread,
    And then I smashed, his little head

    Carrier Pigeon? I hear its a great way to communicate if you’re paranoid about emails being sniffed. Of course, the birds carry their own scent…..

    Unreal 3 engine…

    I hope that your game takes five years to develop so that a majority of your audience actually has a computer capable of playing it >.<

  • Scott Jennings

    We’re not using the Unreal 3 engine :D

    Nooooooooo! Foiled again. I need to find a pigeon with a camera lodged inside its brain. mhmm spicy brains.

    Thank goodness! Nothing at all wrong with the Unreal 3 engine, mind you, but Unreal 3 engine + MMOs do not a large target audience make.

  • RichVR

    Get in touch will Bill D. from QT3. He can take care of it.
