<p>I love playing Company of Heroes but I'm terrible at ladder matches. Where is the best place to learn strategy?</p>

<p>Sorry, there is a bug with some of the OpenId providers. Google is definitely one of them. If you are having trouble, simply create a new user and let me know by emailing me at mrphil @ mrphilgames.com. I will merge the accounts for you and you won't lose any reputation or credit. My apologizes.</p>

<p>As I look forward to the possible move to Stack Exchange 2.0, I think it is only fair that some of you get first crack at being mods in the new community (if that's the direction things end up going.) Who would be interested?</p>

<p>Monaco got Best Game Design and the overall Seamus McNally prize at the IGF this year (2010.)

<p><a href="http://blog.stackexchange.com/post/398809276/beta-7-release-monday-tuesday" rel="nofollow">The free hosting ride Game Legend has been getting is coming to an end in a month or two :(</a> I was wondering if people had any ideas about how to try and pay the $129 a month. I'm so busy with my game that I don't have time to write a SE clone or some alternative like that. Traffic is steadily growing and I'm very happy for the site, but I need to figure out some plan going forward or I'll have to cut it loose.</p> <p><strong>Update</strong> I'm definitely committed to the site. So, I added a small banner ad. I hope it isn't too distracting. Let me know you thoughts.</p> <p><strong>Update 2</strong> <a href="http://blog.stackexchange.com/post/518474918/stack-exchange-2-0" rel="nofollow">The StackExchange people had a big announcement today.</a> While they aren't exactly shutdown us down, it puts me in a pickle. I have an email into them and we'll see what develops.</p> <p><strong>Update 3</strong> I see two options for us: A) Move to the new SO 2.0 community B) Take advantage of OSQA refugee plan which gives us another year to figure out a longer term solution. I think option A might be better for us but there are some problem areas. First, I've spent too much money and time to just hand it over for free without out some sort of compensation. Second, there is the issue of <a href="http://smartergamer.com/" rel="nofollow">Smarter Gamer</a>. <strong>What do you guys think?</strong></p> <p><strong>Update 4</strong> It is my desire to move into the Stack Exchange 2.0 community. Unfortunately, the Stack Exchange folks are still organizing themselves, so I don't have any details about how that is going to work. <strong>But, reassured, one way or another any questions or answer you contribute will live on!</strong> I haven't been active, simply because I'm in wait and see mode.

<p>Every question asked, and every answer offered moves the site forward. That what we can do. The more content, the more people might find the site useful and join in. My approach has been just to capture the answer I find myself naturally seeking and create posts about them. If no one jumps on the questions after a few weeks I come back and give the answer I found. The question about the <a href="http://www.gamelegend.com/questions/231/valve-portal-update" rel="nofollow">Valve's publicity stunt</a> is the perfect example. I came across something interesting and tried to get people here involved. I think it was a success.</p>

<p>There are now radios with red lights added to Valve's game <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal_%28video_game%29" rel="nofollow">Portal</a>. If you move them to the correct locations they will transmit a morse code message.

It is likely there will be a tie in between Portal and Half-Life.

<p>All day I haven't been able to login and play Star Trek Online, because every time I try it says, "The server busy at the moment, please try again later." Does that mean it is full? If so, it seems unfair that I can't at least stand in line for my turn? I even tried just login over and over again, but after 10 minutes I still wasn't playing.</p>

GameLegend is dead. The SE people decided NOT to involve any of the old communities. It is frustrating that so many people are supportive of the idea, but didn't join our party. I assume it is a Joel Spoolosky fandom effect.

Joel has thrown out a ruler of &quot;85% of questions get answered within one hour.&quot; Which is a bar GameLegend and Gamestruction are very far from achieving. I think going to 2.0 could be really great, but I understand where the &quot;hating&quot; comes from. People put time and money into ther sites, with the expectation that they'd be able to licenses the platform and see their investment grow. Now, that the licenses options is taken away they feel like they have been manipulated, especially since the new option is to turn over all the work to the very person that pulled the plug on the original plan.

I completely agree, and it is the reason I haven't moved in the direction of ads. I think part of the problem is SE's pricing ladder. It is completely out of whack with the level of traffic most of sites are getting.
