Now, upon loading this page, you probably thought something along the lines of "Oh, he's updated the colors again."
This, however, is not exactly what has happened.
You see, I realized I have left a mess around the Internet that needed cleaning.
So I have spent today wandering around and killing email addresses (or, to be more clear, removing the need for them). One such address was originally set up because I was having trouble with my usual account. It is with this address, though, that I set up my blog.
So now that I have removed the need for that particular address, I decided to move the blog over to a new account.
Now, the address I used for this account is entirely new, which you may at first see as counter-productive.
However, this is not actually the case. You see, for quite some time I've been looking for a free web host that would allow me to use any domain I wanted and upload my own pages built from scratch (rather than using a restrictive in-browser editor). Now I have finally found one I like. It encourages you to pay for an account, but there is a limited free account that does not expire.
At any rate, this (used in conjunction with a website I encountered earlier where you can register a domain name at no cost) has resulted in my setting up something that I have wanted to do for a very, very long time:
www.elasticapogee.co.cc
The site currently has no content, but in the future it will be home to all of my game-related work (sans Egoboo, most likely). It will replace my previous Freewebs site and will be generally more accessible and official.
The web host I am using also allows you up to five email addresses, and I have created one (paul@[my domain]) that will serve both to support accounts such as this Blogger one and also as a general Elastic Apogee ESU contact address.
Thus, I now have three email addresses. The first I will only refer to here as ******@******.com, as those of you to whom it is relevant should already be aware of what it actually is. This is my primary contact address, and is essentially the only one you should use to communicate with me.
The second is the one I have just finished talking about, paul[at]elasticapogee[dot]co[dot]cc. It doesn't currently have much of a purpose, but as I said, it will be the contact email for my uncorporation and may be used in association with various Internet accounts. It will also be used as a secondary address in case I experience trouble with my other address (ports being blocked, etc.) and need/want to use something different temporarily.
The third, idontreallywantspam[at]hotmail[dot]com, used to serve the dual purpose of a secondary address (the role now filled by the Elastic Apogee address) and SPAM vacuum. Now, however, I am refering to it as a "dummy" address. I will still use it to sign up for stuff, but I will probably only check it when I feel like torturing scam artists. I no longer expect to receive any real mail here, so please do not send any.
Again, the main address you should be sending email to is ******@******.com.
Now, back to the subject of this blog.
All posts have been moved to this new location, which has stolen the old URL, so you shouldn't have to update your bookmarks or anything. If, for whatever reason, you want to look at the original blog (as I said, all the posts have been migrated so there's really no reason to), you may do so by going to iamnotafunctioningrobot.blogspot.com.
My old account has been renamed slightly, and now the "mark 2" almost makes sense. Almost.
Now, you may be wondering, "Wait, why not just call the new account MKIII instead of calling the old one MKI?" Well, there are two reasons for this. The first is that surely someone is going to ask "Where's the first one?" (I am quite surprised that never happened before, when I used the distinction without any real reason). The second is a lot more simple: I think I like the number 2 better than the number 3. =D
There may have been other things related to this general subject that I wanted to point out, but I forget what they are. Until next time, then.

- Paul M-unit 19.91 MKII
- I won't waste too much time here because you can't get to know me very well just by reading a profile. Quick summary: I like games and game design. Also music, literature, and movies.

You should just delete your original profile. Having two profiles that are nearly identical is confusing. Because like, with "I am an Awesome Robot.", you're a team member with... yourself. That doesn't make any sense. Quantum! And like according to your MKII profile, you only have one blog. But according to your MKI profile, you have three. But you're the same person.
"Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
I have a split personality,
And so do I."
You could delete your original blog because "I am an Awesome Robot." is just a copy of it.
*sighs* It makes my brain hurt to think about.
Oh, trust me, the whole ordeal was pretty mind-boggling. I had to sit back and think, "Wait, so..." once or twice.
But that's probably because I was trying to do so much at once.
Anyhow, I may do some cleaning up later.
But the other profile does say that it is dead.
...Meanwhile, I accidentally signed my other comment with the wrong profile. Oh well.
BTW: Split personalities are pretty sweet.
