Roundtable discussion… OK, oblong, but still.

by Samir

Freshers' Fair

We met up today to discuss where we think Another Castle is going in the next academic year, and also to plan the next issue. And after copious amounts of screaming, shouting, swearing and pizza, we actually got started. We’re really looking forward to playing this year’s crop of Christmas blockbusters, and even more excited about shredding the suckers and dedicating a shrine to Modern Warfare 2 (OK, I might be biased). We’re also looking forward to Freshers’ Week – we’re not sure how it’s working yet, but our new Editor-in-Chief (my, doesn’t that sound fancy), Azfarul Islam, or Az to his mates, would definitely like to try and get some newbies on board so the whole ship doesn’t fall apart when we disappear off the face of our Imperial-centric Earth.

If you are interested in writing, designing or something-ing for Another Castle… well, there’s a great big “Contact Us” link up at the top. Why don’t you click it? I’m sure you can figure the rest out.

See you all the new year guys.

Have a KitKat

No posts for the last week? Have we abandoned this blog already?

Nah, we’re just all fretting about exams and coursework. No time to game, and even less time to think about it, if you have many many assignments due in and tests to take over the next week.

Another Castle = 0.875

by Tomo

One eagle-eyed reader has latched onto ground-breaking research currently consuming American scientists’ man hours: the probability of Princess Peach been in Another Castle = 7/8. In other words, every 1 in 8 castles you encounter as a fat, Italian plumber will contain the damsel in distress you’re looking for. OR… look at it ANOTHER WAY and you can scientifically say, including rounding, that 90% of the time the dastardly Bowser will take his hostage somewhere other than the place you’ve just arrived at expecting and hoping to find the Princess only to be told that she’s in “another castle”.

Howdy.

Welcome to my beautiful website. Designed by Tomo and constructed by yours truly, it’ll be the place to catch up with us as we pleasure ourselves with wonderful games and glorious, glorious munchies in the name of bringing you a sexy mag.

It’s not all fun and games, though — every so often we need to write stuff. I’m not sure exactly what you’ll see up here, but it’ll probably be along the lines of random excerpts from drafts, musings, violent outbursts and fart jokes.

I hope you enjoy. If you’d like to subscribe to the blog, you can add us to your favourite feed reader. I personally recommend Google Reader, but anything else is awesome too. Otherwise, you can swing by any time you like and find out exactly what’s going on in our sad, lonely lives.

Later.
