Well, I’m off again…
I’ve had a couple of weeks off of work and as-is my typical nature, I started looking for other projects to code upon.
I’ve always wanted to write a dice roller that understood dice algebraic notation, but never seemed to find the time. In particular, this kinf of a project is compelling since it feeds my liking to write small parsers and my love of role-playing games.
Needless to say, after finishing a rough version of the program, I decided to survey the web for a new site name. Now, let me be clear. I already have 11 other sites that I run (or really use to), so I’m not entirely sure why I would go off and look for another, but yet, here I was, looking for another site.
Wow! It amazed me just how many names were taken. I knew I wanted a .com address to keep things simple, and I didn’t want to always have to spell out the name and I wanted it to fit into the real of roleplaying. Sounds easy enough, right? pfffft!
After almost three hours of searching, I finally found one that I was happy with (dungeonz.com). I had tried almost 200 other names prior to that name, and even taking the time to review the ‘suggested sites’, no luck.
Once found, I quickly registered the name. Easy enough… time for bed.
