  • pf.ie update 26/5/2016

    So after launching the new webiste last night, I went to look about a new theme for Ghost and there wasn’t that many out there.

    But the ones that were available, were really good and really customisable.

    I am using this Uno Zen theme with a custom background image. I have also slapped some social icons and a logo (which I need to update to a new one since that one is over 3 years old at this stage)

    I am really loving the way Ghost works and from what I have been reading, Ghost’s roadmap is looking pretty sweet.

  • Welcome to a ‘new era’ for Padraig Fahy

    A couple of weeks ago, I managed to purchase pf.ie as part of the new 1-2 letter .ie domains that are now available from the IEDR.

    Since then, it was being used as a shorthand to get to padraigfahy.com, but as of today, it is now a new blog on pf.ie using the Ghost platform.

    Soon, padraigfahy.com will redirect to pf.ie and everything padraigfahy.com related will become pf.ie

    I feel that having this very short domain will further enhance my (as the cool kids call it) “Personal Brand”. And it looks cool too! 🙂

  • WWE Payback PPV Predictions

    It is that time of the month again where I predict the winners of the matches for the WWE PPV’s!

    What a interesting month it has been. No real “hype” for this PPV as it is the one after Wrestlemania 32.

    Kickoff Show: Kalisto (c) vs Ryback for the WWE United States Championship – Prediction: Kalisto. This title is now a joke. Not talking more about this.

    Other Deciders not through matches: Shane McMahon vs Stephanie McMahon for control of “Monday Night RAW” by Vince McMahon. Prediction: It’s storyline and WWE.com is hyping Payback as the first PPV in the “new era”. so I would say tat Shane is going to be here for a good while.

    Sami Zayn vs Kevin Owens – Prediction: Sami Zayn. He is just too good and the two of them have had a previous fued in NXT, so this should be a good match.

    Dean Ambrose vs Chris Jericho – Prediction: Dean Ambrose. I have always been a fan of the Ambrose Asylum and he would make it a good show. Go Dean!

    Dolph Ziggler vs Baron Corbin – Prediction: Upset win by Baron Corbin. The ARMBAR winner Baron Corbin should set up a dirty finish to win over Dolph Ziggler.

    The Miz (c) vs Cesaro for the WWE Intercontinental Championship. – Prediction: The Swiss superman, Cesaro. Miz is way to full of himself….

    Enzo & Big Cass vs The Vaudevillains for No 1 Contenders for the WWE Tag Team Championship. – Prediction: How you doin’, it’s Enzo and Cass to win this who would face The New Day at the next PPV – Match stopped due to Enzo Amore picking up an injury. Hit the 2nd rope and his arm caught on the bottom rope, flung out of the ring. 

    Charlotte (c) vs Natalya for the WWE Women’s Championship – Prediction: Bret Hart causes Ric Flair and himself to get ejected from ringside (This is intentional) for Natty to pick up a rollup victory against Sharlit.

    Roman Reigns (c) vs AJ Styles for the WWE World Heavyweight Championship – Predic-BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO: It’-BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Ro-BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Rei-BOOOOOOOOOOOOOO to retai-BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

    Come on guys, Roman isn’t a bad guy and he isn’t a good guy, he is THE guy!

    All I am hearing is Boo’s….ok, I am out!

  • Why are MOBA’s so difficult?

    Some people may have read this question and think that MOBA’s are not that difficult, but I personally think that it is.

    I would safely says that about 1 million people are playing MOBA’s every day per month and while this is a interesting statistic, I am wondering sometimes…how?

    I tried League of Legends…I rage-quit it. Dota 2, similar style of gameplay, quit. Smite has been something that I have tried to get into since it is a twist on the regular format for MOBA’s (Which is that the game is 3rd person rather than overhead like LoL, Dota)

    But here is the thing. When you get into a game with your friends who have been playing these games for a long time and they start calling terms, moves, positions and you can’t react quick enough, a bit of rage starts building up inside of you and that is what happened to me today.

    I was playing Smite with a couple of other people for a “fun” game and it ended up that everyone (including me) raged because I couldn’t do a fucking thing properly. Was either too far forward, not last hitting mobs or even getting jungle camps for additional XP and gold.

    How the fuck am I suppose to know what to do. All I have been taught in the tutorials is to stay behind minions, attack towers, attack enemies and win. There is no mention of “meta” or “roles” or what items that I should or shouldn’t be using.

    What the hell am I supposed to say or do when it comes to a “clutch” situation.

    For all I know, the enemy is going to rape me and then everyone else is going to hate me because of it.

    I do try to give MOBA’s a fair chance when it comes to playing it. But this isn’t fun. It is a easy way of people to get angry for me and for me to rage at people.

    No wonder the LoL community is so terrible. They are looking for elitest people and they demand that they watch videos or look at build guides. Seriously, how the fuck am I suppose to play MOBA’s without being shit on all the fucking time?

    As you can tell by this post, I am raging, but it is the only way to vent my anger. No one wants to hear my bullshit over what I have to think about MOBA’s.

    But why are you playing MOBA’s then? 

    Because MOST (if not all) of my friends play some sort of MOBA such as League, Smite, Dota.

    It just makes me so mad…
