		<description><![CDATA[Another big development over the last few months is that I am now an admin at the Game Maker Community forum.

Following the sudden retirement of longtime community leader KC LC, the GMC needed admins. Chronic, who was pretty much the sole active admin after KC LC's retirement, needed help.  <a href="http://blog.martincrownover.com/2010/10/19/the-shifting-game-maker-scene/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So now I find myself waiting for my mail to come in (so I can get my early registration discount code), and trying to decide if I want to attend this year.  I had a good time checking out the expo floor last year, so I'd definitely like to do that again.  It was fun seeing all the new technology different companies had to offer, as well as seeing all the creative indie games on display.

But do I really want to spend $175, especially since I can only attend one day? <a href="http://blog.martincrownover.com/2009/02/09/gdc-2009-is-approaching/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Has it really been over a week since I've posted here?  Well, my apologies for the delay – it's been a busy time for me over the last week, and I just haven't been able to find the time to write anything.  I've meant to though, so hopefully I'll be getting back on track with this post.  In the interest of everyone's time, here's a quick list of everything I've been up to over the last couple of weeks that has contributed, in one way or another, to my lag in blog posts. <a href="http://blog.martincrownover.com/2009/02/04/apologies-for-the-absence/">Continue reading <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>
