Some apocalypse scenes for your Friday viewing pleasure. My favorite has to be Olivia’s house all boarded up and run down. Someone needs to make a Brikwars army full of those weird looking mini-dolls. They’d have great looking hair while being blown to smithereens.

Prepare for skullduggery on the BrikWars battle forum!

I’ve been getting some e-mails lately wondering why there haven’t been any updates to the Movable Type feed lately; the answer is that the Movable Type software and I have had irreconcilable differences. But fear not! I’ve been busily moving the newsfeed over to LiveJournal instead, and for those of you who can read this, it must be working right. Updating and editing the newsposts will now be much, much easier, and furthermore, you can now see where all the newsposts of the last six months went.

Hopefully this means that it’ll be easier for everyone to participate in the comment threads. While Movable Type relied on a cryptic and byzantine login system that baffled even the most dedicated webfan, a quick look at any random LiveJournal shows that LJ is easy and intuitive enough for even the most retarded semi-pubescent drama-whore.

Whether you consider that to be good news or bad, if the comment threads don’t thrill you I’ve also installed some shiny brand-new discussion forums to back them up, fulfilling a decade-long dream of mine which in the past I had always been too lazy to do anything about. As I type this announcement, the forums are still in their first couple dozen users and couple hundred posts, so there’s still time to get in towards the beginning if not actually on the ground floor. Merry Christmas everybody!

Because you missed it in June, the post about Almighty Benny’s “Last Man Standing”

Those Frappr guys keep coming up with cooler and cooler widgets – the BrikWars Frappr map now has a built-in Flash-based chatroom.

It looks like it’s still a little buggy – I’ve managed to somehow leave multiple copies of myself permanently logged in a couple of times – but it’s a fun little toy nonetheless. It looks like you can embed it just about anywhere, but you’ll need to log in and access it directly through BrikWars’ Frappr map if you don’t want to show up as “Guest3260” or something similar.

I know it’s irresponsible to embed the chat box right on the BrikWars front page, but I thought it’d be funny.
