54 games. Last year I only managed about 30-odd, so I think that's pretty good going. Sure, it might not have truely actually been A Game "Per" Week, but I did at least keep the ratio up. If I hadn't taken the time out to build the framework, I probably would've actually achieved the target a little better The stats show I was pretty much on top of things up until that point, but then things got slower and slower until my buffer zone was all dried up.

August 26th 2009 That's the last time I did a Mailbag post! Blinkin' eck!

So, quicky game this week. <a href="https://socoder.net/uploads/1/Painter.png"><img src="https://socoder.net/uploads/1/Painter_thumb.png"&...

Doing your homework on the back of the bus.. A crazy week of illness, busyness, and a party, have meant that this week's game had to be done.. .. um.. today! And, as you could probably guess. I ain't got Jack! There's still a game, though! Take a look inside to see what it is..
