No, not the site... just me. I will be moving house, job and town at the beginning of November. As on previous occasions, this will usually mean some kind of 'settling in' period, where the site is put on hold temporarily.
However, this time we don't have a concrete idea of where we're moving... just somewhere in the town. So I don't know what the internet connection and all that will be like. I know the town has pretty good access to that kind of thing, so it shouldn't be too much trouble.
And, as usual, if you don't hear from me for a while you can be sure that I'm slogging away on the site in the background until the connection is set up.
But this is a big change in my life now, as I'm moving to a better place (with MANY more game shops than where I am now), my old friends (which means more multiplayer Gamecube action) and hopefully a better paid job that's actually in the town I live in.
The next month or so will be completely mad at my end. I don't doubt some of my spare time will be spent working on the site, but I hope you all don't mind that the updates may be a bit meagre in the meantime.
Cheers, y'all!

Actually, I'm HAPPY to hear so.... Hopefully you'll have a better living.
But during that period is when Mario Kart DS comes out.... I doubt if you'll get the game on time.
EDIT: A big sorry for forgetting you live in UK. But hopefully I'll get it in time!

Have fun moving things, and packing things, and moving those things when they are packed, and unpacking them, and then moving them again!

Thanks everyone! ;D
I don't know if I'll enjoy the moving-packing-unmoving... etc... but I will enjoy arranging my Nintendo collection again! My N64 and Gamecube games are currently arranged in a very nice (and nerdy) way - by release date. That's where my site comes in ever so handy... even for me ;D

Oh!
MY stuuff are arranged by when I buy the game. So the result comes out to be strange... You'll see a DS gamew gets sandwiched between 2 GC games!
And.... yeah, have fun moving stuff. > <

I go alphabetically. Makes it easy to find everything.

If you sort them by release date, however, you can simply keep adding to the end of the stack, rather than having to shove everything along alphabetically.
And also, somehow... it gives the collection a feeling of development and history... but then I collect them like trophies, so there's only a couple of gaps (no matter what, I've found it very difficult to bring myself to the level of geekdom required to purchase Mickey's Magical Mirror).

Mine are in the very precise order of "eh, I'll just put this one here". Which means most of my Cube games are in the one shelf, but 3 are next to me TV and the RE4 collector pack is on another shelf as it wont fit with the others.

Actually, Nintendo are only 2 more European releases away from filling up their allotted DVD rack. I'm gonna need a bigger rack...  |

"I'm gonna need a bigger rack..." < right...
My games are assorted in a complex order too impossible for your finite minds to grasp. In other words, wherever they are that's where they is at.

Categorising games by temporal location, eh? Sounds like a foolproof method... until you end up finding games behind shelves and under the sofa, that is.

Oh, and back on topic... we have reserved a house in quite a nice, quiet area with broadband already installed. Whooo! So hopefully the site won't be on hold for all that long.
You probably won't even notice! ;D
