It’s time to game for a cure. Today I will be working with a team to game for a combined total of 24 hours. The money we collect thanks to generous donationors will go towards the fight against cancer. All money received will be donated to the Texas Childrens Cancer Center.

Ah, memory lane. Take a trip back to the year 2001 with Google’s anniversary search page. Google made available search results for January of 2001 in honor of their 10th birthday. I know it’s not currently 2011, but a 7 1/2 year journey back for a 10th anniversary isn’t too bad.

I tried looking myself up and found some interesting entries. Some of particular note (using google’s cached links):

• I was working for sofcenter.com posting news and managing their site. I also had a sub-site within sofcenter dedicated to mapping tutorials for Soldier of Fortune. Yup, this is where I began my obsession with helping others in mapping for games.
• I hosted my own forums on ezboard to help others with mapping. In my personal profile, I mentioned that I was working on a gaming community hub under the domain foyleman.com.
• I produced a couple of SoF maps, one of which was for a mapper’s guild that I started. The guild would have mapping contests that would promote out-of-box thinking. One such contest was to create a map using 100 brushes or less.
