So there has been a noticeable drop in posting activity over the last couple of weeks, primarily because I spent the last couple of weeks with the family on vacation in Florida. We spent the first part visiting Disney World, and the second half with the kids on a cruise with the grandparents, and my wife and I hanging out on the beach. Not really being much of a beach fan myself, it didn’t do much for me, but it was nice to forget about work for a couple of weeks. The rest of the family of course really enjoyed…

As mentioned previously, I am on vacation this week with my family, enjoying a bit of down time from work. I specifically informed the office that my vacation plans involved a “region in which cell phones cease to function” – thus don’t call and expect any response. As a result, the week has been very quiet from work. As we prepare to leave and head out, of course the weather has turned from solid rain to a very pleasant evening, as it tends to do on the final days of a vacation. But as a result, the pictures of the…

Its taken quite a bit, but I finally managed to edit and finish the game video from our last session. During this game, the group continues to explore Fort Rannick, searching for the leader of the ogres, in an attempt to defeat the brutes. All the while, they are trying to avoid major conflict and discovery by the ogres, who so successfully had defeated the Black Arrow rangers.

Posts for the next couple of weeks may be a bit more sporadic, as I am finally taking some time off from work and my schedule for a vacation. I will still be trying to post, or at least pre-post, but I honestly am going to try to think about computers as little as possible. I have finished the latest round of Pathfinder gameplay, the video is currently rendering before I can upload to YouTube. But I expect that will be published either tonight or tomorrow. Which is good, since our next game may be delayed again as well, meaning…

Apparently my recent rebuild also lost my twitter link, so recent posts had not been auto-posting to Twitter. Seeing if that is working correctly now (fingers crossed).

Its taken a while with recent distractions, but I finally managed to finishing editing for content length the latest gaming video of our Rise of the Runelords game. Still need to do another pass for graphic additions and perhaps sound, but almost there. As a result though, today’s post was running a bit late – I wanted to get the computer rendering before I got distracted, so that I could work on the final steps tomorrow and actually publish.

So yesterday I posted that my recent FreeNAS rebuild had affected the site, and discouraged or stopped the traffic to the site. From my testing, I was receiving 404 (not found) errors on all links, and the pictures and attachments were broken. This was resulting in web crawlers being unable to find and catalog content, which in turn meant no traffic. After digging into it, I found out that fundamentally I just didn’t finish the migration of the site. There were two pieces I was unaware of, that were causing the impact. The first was a default module within Apache…

Perhaps I am overly obsessive, but since I am newer blogger, I tend to check my daily stats with some regularity. More from a sense of small accomplishment, rather than any expectation of a growing audience. However, since I rebuilt my FreeNAS server, which meant a restore of the site, my visit count has crashed to 0 (from a huge number of 3). I am assuming those other “visitors” are automated bots scouring the web, which no doubt have now become confused by the size-able re-alignment of the site links. But if these happen to be the one or two…
