Morning Discussion
by Alice O'Connor, Aug 24, 2009 4:15am PDTOh, it's all fun and games here at Shacknews. Chris gallivants around QuakeCon, cosying up to id CEOs and superstars. Nick kicks back at BlizzCon to reacquaint himself with his dear friend the wizaaaaaaard and befriend Diablo 3's monk. Even Maarten's in on the fun, hitting up Gamescom to enjoy countless video games in a sophisticated European manner including Borderlands, which he said looked particularly splendid before sucking on a clove cigarillo.
Me? Well, knowing that events are far more work than they might appear to be, I'm secretly a little glad that I end up staffing the office to post the flood of media, even if it does mean I miss out on playing all the fancy pants video games before the hoi polloi.

be sure and note that in the Survival league you have to have your pick in before the first game of the week starts which can be on Thursday or Saturday some weeks. In the Pick 'Em leagues if you forget to do your picks before the first game of the week starts you can still go in and make picks on any games that wont start in the next five minutes.
