The Gamer's Quarter

I was trolling the 1up community pages, trying desparately to find something meaningful among the myriad pages of poorly-laid-out, slow-loading content. I wondered if starting a 1up page would be worthwhile. Then I wondered: who here has a page in that junk-drawer of gaming blogs? What do you use it for?

I think most of us have one just try putting in people's internet names in front of 1up.com. Like this!

http://superwes.1up.com
http://dessgeega.1up.com
http://shapermc.1up.com

I haven't updated my page recently because they blocked 1up.com at my work. I'm not sure why really, they're pretty cool about not work safe stuff, so it must have been taking more bandwidth than it should it's believable given the layout...

SpindleyQ.1up.com?
(Though there's nothing there but a woefully incomplete game list. I do appreciate that they peg Larry Values: Traffic Division at $50.)

I've got an up-to-date IGN collection page, though they just did a redesign which made things much much much slower and less coherent. I can't see myself actually using the 1up blogging features anyway; isn't that what all these internet gaming forums are for?

Plus I have a history of 1up hating me, and vice versa.

I do like the new IGN frothometer:
Most froth!:
Oblivion
Metroid Prime: Hunters
God of War (yuck! still?)
Brain Age

Least froth:
Dig Dug DS
Dr. Mario/Puzzle League
Warhammer 40K: Dawn of War: GOTY
Wik & the Fable of Souls

Oddly, the GCN Zelda Bonus Disc scores below the GCN OoT/Master Quest Disc. I wonder how they figure these things? My guess is it has something to do with forum activity, given that SSBM is still in the 70s.
