What does racketboy do for a job?

Talk about just about anything else that is non-gaming here, but keep it clean

And still, what does he smell like?

Enjoying another can of SoylentRacket,

I've actually never had any formal writing education above English 101 and 102 and, I guess, English and American Literature in college.

You should pick up from freelance work for some gaming magazines, or write a book on game history ect. I'd even preorder a copy :)

Actually, I am considering eventually turning a lot of the blog content (expanded on, of course) into a book. But that will probably be a while down the line as I'm too busy pumping stuff out for the site.

I thought this thread was a bit weird to start with but it has thrown out a good idea.

I would buy a copy of that book any day and probably a few copies for friends to try to educate them on what old school gaming and gamers are all about and that we aren't a bunch of elitist fools or that we are living in the past or whatever other misconceptions that people have about us.

But Racket... mate... no pressure or nuthin but pleeeeease take this into serious consideration it would be cool. :D

The only way to deactivate the ray beam and fight back the vampire alien threat is with a complicated series of foot patterns on the device's control board that looks remarkably like a DDR pad. We will all praise this man for saving our lives and buy him a mountain of stuffed animals.
