Who's LuckyNoS7evin



So this isn't about the film, this is about me and a username I've been using since 2006 when Lucky Number Slevin was released and I got the xbox 360. Started the little box of tricks and thinking "what gamertag should I use?". So yes I was a console gamer up until January 2012, I quit PC back in the early 2000s. I started university and although had to have a computer due to doing Computer Science I couldn't afford the graphics cards back then. So through the Xbox and then onto the 360 I really enjoyed console gaming.

10 years after and in stable jobs for too long it was time to come back to PC gaming, £300 pounds from selling everything console, 2 x GTX 560Ti later and my 3 yearly PC upgrade later we come to today:-


  • i7 3770K (Ivy bridge)

  • Corsair Dominator 32GB

  • Asus P8Z77-V LE Plus Intel Z77

  • Corsair H100i

  • 2 x Gigabyte ATi Radeon HD 7950 in crossfire

  • NXZT Phantom case

  • OCZ 1000W Powersupply

  • Samsung 840 Pro - 256GB

  • 2x OCZ agility 3 60GB SSDs

  • 2x 1TB HDDs

  • 3x 24" Benq GL2450HM

  • CMStorm Trigger (MXCherry Blacks)

  • CMStorm Inferno

  • Razer Nostromo

  • Astro A40s and mixamp (Headset)



I've been a member of WSGF since the end of Feb (when WSGF had a little database problem) and I've found everything on the site useful and fun. I'm a part of a couple of other gaming communities, which are for an individual PC game or for console so are a little different to this place. WSGF has been a great help and I'm hoping to at to that.

What's to come?



There is a reason I'm writing this first blog and that's due to what I've been working on over the past couple of weeks. I thought it would be a good idea to build a Steam to WSGF game comparison program, this would take a users Steam username and display their steam library matched to WSGF. Games that match those in the WSGF master catalog and those that don't. This gives users options to see how the games they own match up with WSGFs rating and if no match is found hopefully adding a Detailed Report.

The initial idea thread
Yours vs Mine

Me expanding on this with some issues
Steam to WSGF game compare

So this is where my blog is going, me developing stuff for WSGF and writing about it... oh and getting told off by skip by adding too many SteamIDs in one weekend :)

I don't think I told you off... I think I asked for mercy. ;) Thanks for all the work, and I'm looking forward to how the Steam Comparison app works. :cheers:
