Hello. My name is Sweep. I've been a pretty regular Giantbomb member since the creation of the website back on July 21st 2008. Back on that day, I wrote my first blog in an internet Cafe in Mexico. Since then, a lot has happened - both in my life, and in the world of video games. And, thanks to Giantbomb, I had the perfect place to write it all down. For my 100th blog I would like to look back briefly over the past 158 days.158 Days. 100 blogs.

BEST COMMUNITY RESPONSE
EPIC FAIL
I also managed to keep up my episodic releases of my Keeping It Simple blogs - Which maintain a cult of interest. I got the idea from Edge magazine, a simple way to acknowledge and dismiss ideas without writing a Wall Of Text and scaring everyone away.
