Reanimation, rebirth, regeneration, rejuvenation, renewal, resurgence, resuscitation, revitalization, revival, revivification, reinvention, reactivation, rally, recovery, recuperation, restoral, restoration… There’s so many “R” words to describe the resurrection of GoodLuckHaveFun.net. Resurrection seemed appropriate (not to mention I could easily find an image of Overwatch’s Mercy with her ultimate ability for the post Featured Image).
Anyway.
After a multi-year hiatus, I’m back! I’ve already managed to update the site’s theme, security, WordPress installation, plugins, and display advertising. I also updated all past posts to ensure they render properly with the new design.
With that said, why have I returned? I really don’t know… yet. There were a couple key events that brought goodluckhavefun.net back into focus.
The first is that I received a payout from Amazon and I didn’t know what it was. After some searching, I found that it was commissions for referrals from my Amazon Associates account. I guess that actually works! The site has managed to maintain interest from Clash of Clans players seeking help, as well as some EverQuest fans stumbling across some old EverQuest Worlds walkthroughs. Who knew?
Also, I’ve begun working on the front end of some of the projects I manage for my day job. I needed a neutral place to test out some Javascript, jQuery, and display advertising code before deploying it on much more trafficked sites.
Finally, there’s some games launching later this year that I’m pretty stoked about. So you’ll definitely see some content related to Amazon Game Studios’ New World, Final Fantasy VII Remake, Fractured, World of Warcraft: Shadowlands, and others.
Needless to say, the past 6 years have been busy. However, I feel I’m to a point where I can dive back in and provide some frequent updates. Besides 3 kids, a move across the country, and a new job, here’s a short list at what I’ve been up to:
- GamingHardwareReviews.com
- Mobile games Clash Royale, Battle Bay, and Brawl Stars
- A geek/gaming/Disney t-shirt and vinyl printing business
- Entrepreneurship and building my own business
- Creating multiple SaaS companies with passive income
- Focusing on savings and paying off debt
- Jigsaw puzzles and LEGO
- Front-end web development
- Creating and maintaining a PLEX and MineCraft server
- A ketogenic diet and food recipes
You’re likely to hear more about these in future posts. I’m also curious to know if there’s any games on the horizon I should be aware of. If there’s something that you’d like to hear about sooner than later, just comment below.
Glad to be back. And good luck, have fun!
