Next thing you know, there'll be a Mrs. Coop, and then a bunch of little Cooplets running around, and instead of enjoying life carefree here in this synthetic aberration of a warped reality, you will have to deal with REAL LIFE like bills and jobs and family and responsibilities.

There already is a Mrs Coop - she is the reason I've just spent the last 17 days in Vancouver. Yes, I'm in love :)

Stay here, Coop - don't wander away. You are loved and honored here, and this is a safe haven for you.

I did go away for a couple of weeks but had my account taken care of, so this month should be much better for me. It would be nice to have Gagsy, Coop & gamejunkie in the Top 5, it sure has been a while.

That would be awesome.

Sorry, but that account was a robot and I've been suspicious of it ever since it restarted - someone might have hacked it and carried on with the stats, much like someone did with my brother's a while back. Sad little cunts, who can't put the hard work in themselves.

Mine is quite simple - during one of my earlier experiments with facial hair, I changed from a common-or-garden goatee to a more radical style of facial fungus. My friend took the photo kindly and told me just before pressing the shutter button "You missed a bit." My reaction was caught here and immortalised for all to see.

I guess it needs an update for my 30s, but I might get around to it someday...

Title: Assassin's Creed : Revelations
Authors: Oliver Bowden
Publication Date: 2011
Genre: Crime, Fantasy / Historical
ISBN: 978-0-241-95173-6

Older, wiser and more deadly than ever, Master Assassin Ezio Auditore embarks on an epic journey to find the lost library of Altair - a library that may hold the key to defeating the Templars forever. However, a shocking discovery awaits him.

Here we go again, back with Oliver Bowden, working tirelessly to put the plot of the Assassin's Creed games into text format, ready for those would-be gamers, who couldn't quite get the controls right, so that they can follow the plot of the game at an altogether different pace and yet still feel as if the tale is moving before their own eyes. Bowden is capable of putting the plot into the book, but most talented writers can do that - what makes this work is when the book goes off piste from the plots presented within the game. That additional 5% is what makes this books worth reading for the avid gamer, who has played through the games on multiple occasions, such as myself.

Yes, this does require previous reading and you cannot simply jump into the series at book four. After all, Ezio is by now an old man, his physical prowess may have diminished slightly, but his mind more than makes up for it, as does the improved arsenal at his disposal, some new friends in Turkey and the usual escalation of armaments that war has a tendency to produce.

The story itself gets to the best parts, when you look beneath the killing and combat. The politics between the two shadowy organisations (Assassins and Templars) and the fact that a vast majority of society has no idea of the existence of the two sides, let alone the fact that the major players within their lives are usually affiliated with either one side or the other.

A lovely conclusion to the tale of Ezio Auditore da Firenze - I would usually say spoiler alert, but as he starts off as an old man, you can't really expect too much more from a man of his age during the renaissance. His character seems to have become as important, if not more so to the series than the oft-mentioned Altair Ibn-La'Ahad, the great mentor, whose secrets Ezio has spent a long time trying to uncover.

Finally, we turn to romance, which at first seems awkward, but still it flourishes, as the twilight of this great life approaches. A drastic change of pace and some people who are not reading this book for the deeper meanings may be put off by the need to continue such a bloodline.

I did enjoy this book and there are more to come in the series, as the Assassins slowly become more modern adn the conflict which has continued for centuries will move to a new arena for the next novel. Whether or not the characters within those novels will rise to become as famous (or infamous) within Assassin folklore, remains to be seen.

Not a bad start at all- I had Villa down for an opening day loss.

I was surprised, but the quality of the signings is looking more like what Mr Lambert was getting at Norwich - the reason we signed him in the first place.

Even better for Plymouth and a thumping victory over bitter rivals Exeter. This season is looking up already, not least because United have started as they left off last year. Good to have football back!

Good news from my home town side of life - Kidderminster Harriers are makign strides in the right direction, with an opening day draw and then two wins, to currently sit 5th in the table. We had a horrendous run of form last season, after doing well in the cup, then parting company with Steve Burr, the best manager outside of the football league at the time. Now we've gone through a shit (ex-Coventry) boss and are finally looking back the way we were before the cup run.

Response to: Newgrounds Football Club - Ngfc Posted August 15th, 2014 in Clubs & Crews

Here we go again. Massively underwhelming expectations for Aston Villa (nothing to lose, I suppose) and at least we've not had the first managerial casualty of the season, Tony Pulis leaving Crystal Palace after -2 days on the season clock. Quick draw!

Some low risk signings this off season for the Villa, the latest being Carlos Sanchez, the Columbian defensive midfielder, so perhaps we can use these signings to blend in with the other players who remain, the rejuvenated players who were until recently "surplus to requirements" (i.e. Alan Hutton, Shay Given and Darren Bent) and we might be in with a chance of doing something better than 15th...

Of course, with the sale still hanging around like a bad smell, we could just implode.
