The Monthly Update: November ‘07


November 30th, 2007 by NextRound

nextround at workThe NextRound Update

Not much new to report since last month, so we’re going to keep this short and sweet.

The release of NextRound 1.0 (we guess that’s what we’re calling it) is still scheduled for the beginning of ‘08, hopefully mid-January. The development continues to take up the majority of our time, but all the work should be worthwhile as we plan to migrate from “work-in-progress” to “semi-professional website”. Get excited.
Keep checking in and we’ll be sure to provide updates as we count down to the release.

On a technical note, we’ve run into some issues with the new server over the last week. Namely, it being really f-ing slow. Our backroom boys are working diligently to get what needs to be fixed, fixed. We plan to have it running smooth again by Monday, but who the hell really knows. Again, we apologize for the slowness.

That’s pretty much it. We’ll continue to post new articles 2-3 times a day for the next month and a half, then–hopefully–take things to the next level.

Stick around. At the very least, it should be interesting.

And now, what you’ve been waiting for…

The Team Cool & Tough Update

Every month we highlight the latest happenings of everyone’s favorite crew of socially challenged twenty-something dudes. In quasi-chronological order, here are things that went down last month (as logged on Team Cool & Tough’s team page on NextRound.net).

  • Since November marks the end of college football’s regular season, there was A LOT of pigskin discussion going on, primarily us incessantly berating each other, members of the media, color commentators, the coach of our alma mater, and fans of other teams. If even a small portion of the comments made by any of us were made public we’d all most likely lose the majority of our friends and our jobs.
  • Booth posted a question to the rest of us asking if jerking off to gay porn means he’s gay. A debate ensued. Booth swears someone logged on his computer and posted the question, but if you’ve ever seen Boothy devour a peach margarita you might not believe him.
  • Steve Irony hijacked a college football thread in order to post a link to the new Hilary Duff video. Sadly, this is not the first time–and certainly not the last time–this has happened.
  • Maske had to miss an important home game to attend a wedding. In order to make amends he had to agree to “S-Mac himself” the next time all the dudes are together. There are so many different things that could mean it’s scary.
  • We eulogized Quiet Riot lead singer Kevin Dubrow for all the joy he brought into our lives. How could you not? “Cum on Feel the Noize” still stands as the greatest use of purposely misspelled words in song title history.
