Not a whole lot.I'm in school to get a 4-year web development degree. 3.3 (of 4.0) GPA in the 3 semesters I've gone so far. I run a fairly successful online game, about 30k signups, 10k people active since January. Brings in about 400-600 a month. Mom (1/21/53 - 05/05/05) and cat (?/?/87 - 05/13/05) died. I'm wrestling the mortgage company telling them that she had accidental death insurance policy on her home and that it now belongs to me. I'm getting ready to move into it. How about y'all?

http://www.riseoftyrants.com/ It's a web based strategy game/MMO game/whatever you might want to call it game. There are turns every 15 minutes, and with a turn you get more gold to buy more stuff. You can also attack other people and steal their gold to buy even more stuff. There's also one that auto-resets every week and has turns every minute at http://www.riseoftyrants.com/melee/ The latter is quite addictive. I started it to keep people happy while they were waiting for me to finish the next version of the game and I ended up addicted to the damn thing for 2 and a half weeks.  The uniqueness about the game that sets it apart from the others like it (Kings of Chaos, Dark Throne being the biggest and suckiest ones) is that there are no limits...you can give yourself as many soldiers as you want (but you have to pass a CAPTCHA for each one), you can upgrade your attack/defense/unit production/etc as many times as you want (as long as you have the gold), and of course, I am the administrator. It's hosted on a dedicated server, dual Xeon 2.8ghz, 2gb of RAM, 100mbps connection, 2000 gb bandwidth limit per month, 3x73 gb SCSI drives in RAID 5
