The Tanooki’s Daily Recap – July 13, 2007

Another long day. We’re a little short on the video footage right now, but I’ll try to get around to posting the video clips tomorrow. There are nice looking games from E3 this week.

We’re heading into the weekend now, which usually means a dip in the amount of news we get throughout the days. Assuming I’m here tomorrow, there probably won’t be any such dip, as I still have lots to share with all of you. If I do happen to run out of news, I’ll be playing catch-up and you’ll see the number next to “June” over to the right slowly increase. That is, assuming I’m here tomorrow. I’m doing everything I can to get where I want to go for the day, but it’s not looking good.

One thing Matt and I were discussing today and something I really don’t mind keeping a secret because it’s not that huge is that we’re thinking about launching our own IRC channel in the near future. Would you like that? A lot of IRC channels host occasional trivia games as well. Just small little games for fun to bring everyone together for a night, and maybe a prize will be offered from time to time. Would you like that? We’re not sure what night of the week we want to do it yet, as we’re not sure of our own schedules going into the fall semester. Let us know what you think!
