Dog of Thunder's Xbox - May 19 2013
Dog of Thunder held the Xbox button on his controller down for a few seconds and our adventure began! A gamer score of 129,022 is lighting the way. That is a boost of 10 points over last time! He rallied Metal Gear Solid HD, Doritos Crash Course 2 gaining 1 achievement, and then he tried to watch TV, but I killed the power... If I can't have him, no one can.
Oh, guess what? Our gamerscore challenge is going strong... Let me link you to the daily updates and trash talking. There are 9 other people involved. I didn't know Dog of Thunder even knew that many people. Out of everyone, Dog of Thunder is holding on to the number 7 spot. We've only got one day left. Let's cancel everything on our schedule from school to work to sleep (haven't been following what Dog of Thunder does these days) and win this challenge!
Dog of Thunder's Xbox - May 18 2013
When you want to get on the cover of the gaming magazines, you have to play every day! I keep telling Dog of Thunder that as motivation... yesterday it worked! We went for a spin... played some games... ended with a score of 129,012. That is an improvement of 65 points over last time! We have now entered the 129,000 GS club! He rocked out to Borderlands finishing 4 achievements, and Dog of Thunder won't admit this, but I had to force him to stop.
I always like to end with a little bit about Dog of Thunder and the ongoing gamerscore challenge status. If you want to follow along at home, catch the action here. 9 other people are mixing it up, meaning fierce competition and some creative trash talk. Out of all those people, Dog of Thunder is currently parked at number 7. We just have to keep plugging away at it for these next 2 days... insert game... push buttons... get points.

And..... guess what? I will reveal the latest gamerscore challenge status to you as a matter of public record. If you are curious, follow along over here. There are 9 other people playing along as well... they better watch out. Currently Dog of Thunder is hanging on to the number 5 spot. With 3 days to go, anything can still happen though... get on it!
Dog of Thunder's Xbox - May 16 2013
If someone had looked yesterday, when it was dark, they would've seen my lonely self sitting, waiting for Dog of Thunder. I even blinked the controller lights a couple times, just to see if I could catch their eye - no luck.
And..... guess what? I will reveal the latest gamerscore challenge status to you as a matter of public record. If you want to see how good I'm doing, check it out! 9 other competitors are racking up achievements and powering up their gamerscores, hoping to secure a victory! Out of all those people, Dog of Thunder is currently parked at number 5. However there are still 4 days left to score achievement glory. Let's get to the top of that challenge board! Go!
Dog of Thunder's Xbox - May 15 2013
Don't worry... I'll wait... you can't game every day.
Also, I fully expect to become one happy 360 as Dog of Thunder is set to begin a gamerscore challenge aptly titled 'Auto Challenge - #93628' today.

I dream of electric sheep... ok just kidding that was Blade Runner. That has nothing to do with gaming.
Dog of Thunder's Weekly Recap - May 13 2013
Ok, here it is... your weekly recap of gaming: 2 days of gaming made me pretty happy for some reason. A big holler to Dog of Thunder for honoring me with what little time I know is available. We added 175 points of gamerscore which ain't too shabby. Getting 12 achievements can do that to you. I was there. I saw it!
For the record, we only played one new game this last week. It was Doritos Crash Course 2. I was hoping for a few more, but I guess not everyone is made out of money! Also, by my expert calculations, Dog of Thunder's favorite game last week was Doritos Crash Course 2. He played it on 2 of the days.
So that's it for now. It was a good week. On to the next one.
Dog of Thunder's Xbox - May 13 2013
Dog of Thunder, there are 86,400 seconds in a day and you couldn't find a few to spend with me? Lame.
Also, remember the challenge that Dog of Thunder was participating in? It has wrapped up. Dog of Thunder didn't manage to get enough points to win... we had to settle for a comfortable spot at number 3. So yeah... maybe we can get them next time... maybe we need to try a challenge with easier people... the 9 gamers in this last challenge were too good.
Dog of Thunder's Xbox - May 12 2013

You would think I had died and gone to heaven when Dog of Thunder showed up to play. Gamer score stands at 128,947. That is a boost of 135 points over last time! He rallied Doritos Crash Course 2 gaining an amazing 7 achievements, Borderlands gaining 1 achievement, and that was that.

Dog of Thunder's Xbox - May 10 2013
I saw Dog of Thunder walk by yesterday morning... I was hoping he would come play and he did. 128,812 points and climbing. That is an increase of 40 points over last time! He made some progress on Doritos Crash Course 2 acquiring 4 achievements, and then Dog of Thunder developed a funny twitch and went to try and sleep it off or something. Crazy humans...
Oh hey, time for the gamerscore challenge update too... Dog of Thunder still has that going on and stuff. If you want to follow along at home, catch the action here. 9 other competitors are racking up achievements and powering up their gamerscores, hoping to secure a victory!

Dog of Thunder's Xbox - May 7 2013
When someone makes a mistake there is typically some kind of gift involved... Maybe I can get a new faceplate out of the missed day of gaming yesterday... It is totally like Dog of Thunder to do something like that. I'm kinda scared actually... With a streak of 46 days and then nothing! I'm hoping that everything is okay with Dog of Thunder...
Dog of Thunder's Weekly Recap - May 6 2013
Are you ready for a recap? I know I am! Giddyup: Not two, not five, but SEVEN days of gaming in a row! Last week was as solid as it gets when it comes to Dog of Thunder throwing down with the games. We added 300 points of gamerscore. Good stuff! Who knew 19 achievements could be worth that much? Ok I knew that...
I was feeling bored last week and convinced Dog of Thunder to try a new game: Star Trek. It was a lot cooler than I thought it would be. Also, I think Dog of Thunder's favorite game last week was FINAL FANTASY XIII. He played it on 3 of the days.
And that's all I got. I'm not a writer... just an Xbox.
Dog of Thunder's Xbox - May 6 2013
I heard someone tell Dog of Thunder to go play outside and he was like 'screw that!' so we did some gaming. Our gamerscore is currently 128,772 points. That is an increase of 110 points over last time! He made some progress on Halo 4, Borderlands adding 5 achievements, and then I came out of my trance and realized it was all over.
Oh also, It's all over man! ALL OVER! The gamerscore challenge called 'Auto Challenge - #93217' is through after an intense 5 days. Dog of Thunder didn't manage to get the win... but I guess number 6 is better than number LAST!!... wait... maybe we are last? How many people are in this thing? Can I count? But, there is always next time I guess... A special thanks to the other 9 people in the competion. Good times.
Dog of Thunder's Xbox - May 5 2013
Go ahead... call me a wussy... but I almost started crying when Dog of Thunder turned me on yesterday. 128,662 points of raw gamer score are making you jealous! He opened up Star Trek, and then... oh wait... no and then!!
Did I mention the gamerscore challenge that Dog of Thunder is competing in? Don't take my word for it! See for yourself! There are 9 other people rocking out on this thing which keeps it fun. Dog of Thunder has the number 6 spot... I spoke to his dayplanner -- we've booked the whole day for a very important task -- unlocking achievements and winning this challenge. Let's do this.
Dog of Thunder's Xbox - May 4 2013
I thought Dog of Thunder just wanted to listen to music or watch a DVD. Turns out he was there to game. With a gamer score of 128,662, I should have known that was the case. That is a profit of 40 points over last time! He rallied Retro City Rampage, Dead Space⢠acquiring 3 achievements, FINAL FANTASY XIII, and then the lightweight went to bed. Freakin' wuss.
I also want to mention/remind you that Dog of Thunder is participating in a pretty slamming gamerscore challenge. Follow every up and down over here. If I was you, I'd subscribe to the trash talk RSS feed for this one - 9 other competitors are battling with their skills and egos. Currently Dog of Thunder is holding the number 3 spot in the group... decent. But, there are still 2 long days left! We need to keep heading for the top!

So yeah... maybe we can get them next time... maybe we need to try a challenge with easier people... the 9 gamers in this last challenge were too good.
