Code Signing Certificate Pain

I’m having a world of trouble trying to prove my Company is real so I can get a Code Signing Certificate.

Since it was created, we’ve moved residence and it’s name has changed. These two events have combined to form an impenetrable logic barrier for the people I’m talking to.

In other news .. Well there’s a bit.

  • Pushed the Ashfield Presy site live last week (http://ashfieldpresbyterian.org.au). Have used the “Office” theme from Revolution Two. Fantastic stuff.
  • Tweaking Oldaer (my new piece of software) functionality
  • Have been going off at work with the Web Systems. Actually, just with work. Today I created and pushed live three builds (two web systems, one desktop update. Can’t explain why the brain is in such a purple patch. Things are clicking.
  • Have come up with a venture for the new year. It’s got to do with my favourite sport, Rugby. That’s all for the moment.
  • Another venture for the new year is .. A Development Help site, of sorts. We’ll see how the planning goes. Suffice to say, I’ve got wiser heads than I helping me out.
  • Lastly, I’m playing WAY too much Sacred 2. This game. If you’ve seen my Tweets, then you’ll get a glimpse into the crazy. It’s fit my gaming brain like a really, really, REALLY comfy glove.

Night night.

How Long Has It Been Since You’ve Bought A Computer Game?

by Stu Andrews on November 3, 2008

nogame Hi, my name is Stu Andrews, and I’m a player of Computer Games.

The last computer game I bought was Depths of Peril, back in June (2008). It’s only 4 months, but I can honestly say it feels a LOT longer.

Back then, I made a decision. Games would only be bought every six months. This included not only my precious PC games, but also Wii and DS (those are the current consoles we’ve got. N64 and XBox didn’t really figure into my estimation :).

For the first couple of months, it was easy. There were no games that called. Then, last month, the Enhanced Edition of The Witcher came out for download (had the original). This allowed me to take a break from working late nights for a while.

1-11-2008 9-40-55 AM It’s November, and the exciting games are mounting up. The World of Goo. Sacred 2. Fable 2 (although not having an XBox 360 helps there). The second Penny Arcade Adventure. Wrath of the Lich King is almost here. The list goes on.

There’s one month left to go. It’s going to be hard. Especially considering this week is holidays for me.

I haven’t talked about _why_ I’m limiting myself (and the family) to buying every six months. That’s for another post. But I’ll finish asking the question:

Is money the only reason you limit your Computer Game buying?
