BitTorrent 2

Posted by Kaz on Dec. 23, 2006, 6:29 p.m.

If you remember from my last blog I downloaded Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion last week. I still haven't even closed the first gate, but I'm still having fun doing random stuff. Thats why I haven't been here the past few days.

So as I was playing Oblivion I decided to see if I could find a Half-Life 2 torrent that actually worked and had a bunch of seeders. Luckily its a small game(1.5gb) so I downloaded it in a bout 12 hours overnight. So today, when I woke up at 12, I got to play Half-Life 2. And wow does it kick ass. I just got to Ravenholme or whatever its called. Those stupid monkey crab things are pissing me off and I'm running out of ammo fast. Oh well, I guess I could always beat them to death with my crowbar.

No, I'm still not done with BitTorrent. While watching G4 I saw a game called Titan Quest, a Diablo like rpg. Since I used to play Diablo a lot I decided to find a torrent. Right now its at 55% going at 28kbs, its 3.15gb. So it should be done by sometime tomorrow, just in time for Christmas.

<b>Christmas</b><hr>

I asked for absolutely nothing this year, well besides this laptop, which I got almost a month ago. I don't want anything at all, except maybe a job. Hell, I would like a job now, if I didn't have BitTorrent I would be going crazy right now. So I'm not expecting anything, though I'm sure I'll get clothes or money or something.

<b>WTF</b><hr>

So I'm looking through my email and I find I got an Apple iCard from someone. I look at all the people it was sent to and I find the strangest thing. One of these people go to my school and another I used to play Runescape with I think.

<b>Random</b><hr>

A few hours before I saw Titan Quest on G4 an online video countdown was on. So I went to the G4 site and found some of the videos.(Don't go if you're on dial up, the site is completely Flash and takes me a while to load on cable)

The best are Stop Motion Battle and rooftop piledriver.

YouTube is wicked slow today, so I don't feel like waiting for every page to load.

It took me 2 days to download Need for speed most wanted >_<

It can be difficult to find torrents with lots of seeds and a good download speed.

And now I ran out of space in my hard drive…
