Randy and I activated some Facebook games like Pet Society, Farmville, Mafia Wars, and Restaurant City, for a change.

We're both playing the above games with our children.

Randy and I had been more addicted today playing [SFU] Unification Wars. We both feel that our time is too short to play this game.

To play the game, we have to wait for a full 45 turn to initiate next game move, fill rate is about 5 mins and 10 sec. It's 45 turn for paid (RT +1) player, 30 turn for free account.

We could barely dedicate some of our time watching our favorite TV shows in San Diego due to this new addiction. So far, I am still analyzing the game through Randy's guidance. I hate wars and wish not to attack other players but sometimes, I have to protect the systems under my control. I can only play peacefully once my account is placed under DP (Damage Protection) for over 24 hours.

Randy restarted his game for a better distribution of his Science Research and Projects while it was too late for me to do the same because I already did my research before building up my wealth. The game is based in Singapore and the Taiwan earthquake in December 2006 slows down most of our internet activities until now. Hundreds of players are playing this game around the world and the lag annoyed us!

However, the article written by Erwin Oliva in inquirer.net, Internet remains slow for many Philippine users that says something about PLDT: "PLDT said it was almost done restoring Internet and telephone services by re-routing Internet traffic" made us laugh. PLDT myDSL provided slow DSL internet way back in March 2006 and has ripped off lots of their subscribers, including me, for charging us for the service they couldn't provide anymore. Until to this date, I still have rebates for the months of May, June, July, and August from myDSL broadband service I already paid but they didn't give me the rebates due me. So far, my phone was illegally disconnected and in spite of payments made to reconnect it, they still failed to reconnect my phone line. Whether this is strategy not to return my money, well, it's not funny to see a giant telephone company victimizing a low income family like mine.

Anyway, what made me addicted to [SFU] Unification Wars is their market. Randy and I both ended up trading the minerals the systems produce for game $$$ to purchase ships and other minerals my systems do not produce.

Many thanks to Danny87, our game Lord, who donated $24.384 Billion credits and 4.064 Billion Food credits into my game account. I sold 3B for $45B. Whether a game Lord would be beneficial for me and Randy or not, I realized that we couldn't declare independence until we gain a million honor points from the game!

Meanwhile, Junjun received a call again from Lily c/o Level Up, and she confirmed that my son definitely won a free trip to South Korea. They are waiting for the visa transmittal. We're happy for my son!

Lily c/o Level Up called yesterday afternoon while I was preparing to go to the dentist. She's looking for my son, Junjun, but he was in school that time.

She told me that my son qualifies and might represent ROSE - Philippines to Seoul, Korea for a massive Gravity event! Webzen and Gravity are two of the leading online gaming companies in Asia.

Anyway, still surprised, I gave her the full name of my son, his birthdate, complete address, and his passport number. I was so happy that high cost of electric bills lately might paid off. We are still awaiting for the confirmation today. Lily told me my son will have free ticket to Seoul Korea, free food, and lodging. My son just started playing the game this year when he arrived from his employment contract in Saudi Arabia.

If ever he will represent Polaris server, he will leave on August 11 and will come back on August 14.

Good luck, Junjun!

My son kept bothering me to open a flash movie created by the Legends of Polaris, a big group of teen players, who won the grand prize from the recent ROSE Cheerdance Competition. I was hesitant at first to stop what I was doing but, glad he told me about it. It's amazing how these kids have the talents to create a flash movie taken from the ROSE scenes and made a music video using their characters in the game. R.O.S.E. (Rush On Seven Episodes), a massively multi-player gaming community where Paul Denise hang out online, is a World of Seven Planets that draws visual and thematic inspiration from fairy tales, fantasy, science fiction novels and literary works involving a quest for truth and meaning.

R.O.S.E. ONLINE awarded All I Want entry a PHP 20,000.00 prize, a Flash movie presented by AnDroid, CoolWinter, HyruyukooMaster, Rophalicleus, and Hardcore in coordination with LEVEL UP!
