An Introduction of Sorts

So this is my blog. I have tried (Quite a few times!) to getting into the swing of blogging, but it always ends with my poor blog dying of neglect. For now, my goal is to get used to posting before I start talking about schedules. So I guess we should get started, shouldn't we?

Who am I, Anyway?

My name is Tony Bucchioni, and I'm into all sorts of nerdy stuff! Warcraft once again has it's claws into me, and I'm a level one judge for Magic: the Gathering. I'm currently between jobs, so I figured now would be as good a time as any to start blogging again. My first system was my grandmother's Atari 2600, but PC gaming is my favorite. Some of my most beloved games? X-COM (Old and new!), Simcity, World of Warcraft, Alpha Centauri and every game featuring Tex Murphy.

Outside of gaming, I discovered from my previous job that I really enjoy baking. I also have a pretty awesome family, which I spend plenty of time with. As far as music goes, I can enjoy just about any genre. May favorite performers are "Weird Al" Yankovic, Lights, MC Lars, Random (aka Mega Ran), MC Frontalot, K.Flay, Collective Soul, Poets of the Fall and Eytan and the Embassy.

What am I Doing Here, Anyway?

The plan so far is to blog about stuff. Mostly, gaming stuff. Lots of Magic and Warcraft, most likely. I really want to start sharing my experiences as I attempt to climb the ranks of the Magic: the Gathering judge program. Expect lots of event reports with some number of pictures. In Warcraft, I've recently started exploring the player versus player aspects of the game, especially arenas. Most of all, I'm doing this for me. I used to write all the time, and I really miss it. Maybe I'll even figure out what I'm doing. Maybe.
