Wednesday Weigh In - It Has Begun

Thank goodness for Carbine's Wildstar Wednesday post, otherwise I would never have had content a title for today's post. I am getting ahead of myself, first let's talk about the weight portion of the homonym. I got sick on Sunday, so I have not been as active as I would have liked, but I have also benefited from virus specific weight loss effects: lack of appetite, excessive sweating and frequent flushing of porcelain fixtures. Net result - 219.2 pounds. Climbing up. I have to make a significant turn around if I want to hit my goal of 215 by the end of the month.

Wildstar Wednesday this week started with a Twitter message on Tuesday suggesting players check their spam filters for any mass mailings that could have gotten tangled up in error. Then today simply a picture of the development team (goodness there are a lot of you) with the head line "It has begun!" written overhead. While professional gaming news sites have managed to turn this into multiple news articles I was struggling for how I'd stretch this into a full post. Would I speculate on what they mean exactly by "worth 1000 words?" did 1000 invites go out? Is beta going to last for exactly 1000 hours placing Wildstar's official release date at the end of June?

Thankfully there was more to come...
