I haven’t been doing very much gaming lately – no, not even in Old Republic – so it took me a while to notice that my Gamerscore looked a little off. I did a little poking around and, lo and behold, my Xbox Live account got hacked, and someone bought almost 3000 Points worth of FIFA12 DLC. Spoke with customer service this morning, and the short version is that my account will be suspended for around 2 weeks while Microsoft conducts an investigation; when that’s over, my account will be reinstated and I’ll hopefully get my Points refunded.
Kind of a bummer, right? Not that I’ve been doing a lot of online gaming ever, but still – that’s kind of messed up.
In the meantime, yeah – not a lot of gaming happening. I’m stuck on a boss in TOR and haven’t felt inclined to grind my way past it. I’ve mostly been playing the shit out of two iPhone games: Muffin Knight and Run Roo Run, and if I had the time I’d devote some Subway Gamer columns to them. They’re both fun, though, is the thing.
I’ve also been continuing to build the hell out of my Tiny Tower; I’m up to 126 floors and the other day I went a little OCD-insane and renamed each business to include the floor number and its number of happy employees. I did this because, well, when you have 126 floors, finding things is very tedious, and I’ve basically removed the endless searching from the equation. Now, whenever I move a new bitizen into the building, I can immediately tell if their dream job is available. I can also tell if I’m able to complete a mission just from seeing the names of the necessary companies. Again, this is kind of insane, and I’m well aware of that, but, I mean, if you’re similarly addicted to Tiny Tower you would definitely appreciate this kind of insanity.
