For any of you guys who visit Cheapassgamer.com or listen to the CAGcast, you might like to know that CheapyD is chatting live with users over on the userplane.com. You can find the link on the main CAG site and it only takes a minute to sign up. Way cool talking to a C-List internet celebrity for the first time in person!Oh and he's hinting about CAG 2.0 stuff :)
Just a head's up!
Sorry he wasn't on for very long. What he did say though is that the CAG 2.0 website is going to have some really streamlined features and that it's going to be somewhat similar to iGoogle in style, but with two columns (at least). The left side will be mostly blog related stuff and the right side will be other forums/deals/community sections. He also hinted that it may be customizeable in layout and that the login for CAG will soon be integrated with the CAGwiki as well. Very cool stuff :) It's nowhere near done yet, but he has a ton of ideas so it's very promising ^_^He had to run to the post office but did say he may be back later to chat. Cya!
I love CheapyD and that love obviously extends to the website, CAG, but us long-time CAGs have been waiting for CAG 2.0 for a long, long time. I don't expect this this year, but would be extremely pleasantly surprised if it occurs before the year is out.
Goozex Forum Moderator I'm reading: nothing I'm watching: Becoming Jane I'm listening to: Eric Hutchinson & Marie Digby Join the Folding@Home Goozex team: Team Goozex #80197 We're talking to you PS3 and PC users.
Bah, I'm having CAG withdrawl. But even worse, I was about to sell my 1.5 PSP to someone on CAG and the site goes down just before I can get his email. I don't recall your name, but if you're out there man, I'm here!

Duddy07:Is there no Wombat love?
You can always get your Wombat love here: http://gamesblog.ugo.com/
You could check out the last CAG Foreplay. Wombat love is everywhere. (I wouldn't recommend it because it is pretty awkward, but with CAG being down you've got to fill the void with something.)
Ending shameless, self-deprecating post now.
L-List Celebrity sighted. Hey there Shipwreck! Glad to have you here. How about showing some Goozex love on your wife's next CAG Foreplay? (Teasing, of course)
Actually as awkward as it was, I actually did enjoy the Mr. Shipwreck/Wombat podcast. You guys did a good job with what you had to work with :) All those nautical games and Burning Sea comments had me laughing nonetheless. Great job with the podcast! Keep up the good work and glad to see you on Goozex ^_^
I'm a little bit behind, but I was listening to the CAG Foreplay episode #29: "Wii-Em Ups" today and Shipwreck made some nice Goozex references. There was mention he had a bad run of traders that were not sending full package games as they had been listed on Goozex. I assure you Shipwreck that that is typically not the case, as I'm sure you are quite aware, and wish you better luck with your future trades.
It seems with the CAG forums being updated, we're getting some extra attention here.
Yeah, I've done several trades here so far and those couple of disappointing trades just happened to be back-to-back. It comes with the territory though, and Goozex has definitely been a great way for me to easily trade games, so I'm sure there will be many future mentions of Goozex on our show.
Hey shipwreck! Welcome welcome! I know this isn't your normal stomping ground, but feel free to shamelessy plug your show here. A friend of CAG is a friend of ours. Plus, I think you have quite a few fans here already.
If we get Achievement Junkie/GamerCast Network to start posting then the trifecta will be complete with podcasting friends stopping by to say hello out of the blue!
