I'M IN A GOOD MOOD TODAY! YAAAAAAAAY! Even though my bum feels like it's been smacked by a dozen horseshoes, due to a new dance class I attended yesterday. There's nothing to put you in a better frame of mind than needing to wince everytime you sit down. W00t W00t!
Right, enough flapping around. Before I forget, thanks to everyone who hopped online during the Gamespot Community Night. It was great fun. I always think a great online session isn't the game you're playing, but the people you're playing it with.
Also, I have a new videoblog! And thanks to everyone's kind words, I bit the bullet and wore my glasses. Sadly I can't upload it to Gamespot as usual as it means lots of conversion confusion, but you can still watch it on the FDUK site here.
Finally, I'd like to take this opportunity to throw open a bit of healthy discourse. Meaning, I want you to ask me some questions about Frag Dolls. Sometimes I forget there are a lot of people out there who aren't quite sure how we operate, or what activities we get up to. So if you message over your questions - however big or small - I will do my best to answer them. No hate mail, please! Don't spoil the Jammy fun times.
Right, I'm off to accept some friend invites. I've been getting really lazy with them recently. Tut tut.

The one upside to a sore bum is you will sit less and therefore be more active 
I don't really have any Fragdoll questions specifically, but maybe you could tell us a little about yourself. I luckily avoided those 5 things going around, and I won't ask you that, but I'll leave it to your prerogative

My girlfriend and I had the same cage for our guinea pigs but only for three days as I was allergic to their hay. Sad, true and completely irrelevant.
Like ThaSod, I would like to know if you are a full time Ubisoft employee. Also, how do you become a Frag Doll and are there are any Frag Dude positions at the company, should I start updating my CV?!

You look good with the glasses, Jam. b

I'll be the third person to ask the same question. Do you have any other job besides being a Frag Doll? And err you do get paid being a Frag Doll, right?
Anyway, girls in glasses are totally cool. I should know because I wear one.

Guinea Pigs may well be irrelevant to this Blog post but they are always great subject matter for any discussion INKling. I had two myself once upon a time (Peruvian), Coco and Chanel. Coco was a chocolate brown colour, while Chanel was pure white and had this virginal look about her, despite giving birth to many offspring. It's actually bit of a sad story as Chanel died and Coco was left heart broken and went off his food. He died himself soon after due to a broken heart 
Arggh!, all the pain has come flooding back I cannot even think of any questions to ask. Wait!, freebies?, what Ubi freebies do you get and do Ubi give you a budget to play with in order to make sure you have all the relevant equipment to play their latest games. Like say with FarCry2, you are going to really need a top spec PC then, so will Ubi provide you with a new Skulltrail thingy and a 9800GX2 to make sure your PC is in the best shape to do battle.

Great Video Blog and you do have a lot of games ...I love your accent

Did Sarin tell you what I said about you Kate during the GSUK game night? In addition, you are still looking as fine as ever.

I think that's a really sexy design you have there, what is it about The Frag Dolls?, my gamertag is the same as my username...

The glasses are definitely worth keeping, and you can't go wrong with the accent.
Video Game overload is a horrible affliction! I suggest, if anyone suggests World of Warcraft, that you avoid it like the plague. Not because it's a bad game, it's actually a very fun game, but it will suck your time dry. I bought at least two dozen games while I played WoW and maybe played three of them to any great length. The rest are just sitting on my shelf waiting to be played should I ever get through my backlog of current generation titles. It is frustrating, but what can you do? Besides not buy games you know you won't be playing.
My only question about the Frag Dolls is how do I go against them? Or in the case of Rainbow Six: Vegas 2, I think it'd be fun to run some terrorist hunts! I'm also curious about how much of your own gaming you get to do as compared to how much you have to do to meet the obligations of being a frag doll? It'd be fun to get a round or two in casually, regardless.

Was fun to play with you and will be doing so this Friday Night (will give me sometime to relax after my first week of work).

Beaten Uncharted and Devil May Cry 4 months ago How far are you on them?.
If your looking for a good PC game I'd recommend Theme Hospital which around 5 quid to get but a fun game.

Job of fragdoll = Being a gramer.

What are the best perks of being an FD?
Posted Apr 23, 2008 2:30 pm PT
To answer your question from the video blog, I would continue to play R6V2 to be honest. I could help you beat all of the the terrorist hunts and also help you get to elite, if you have some free time or want to.
I have a couple of questions. First, what the heck is in the background of your vidblog? Is it like a big ferret cage or something?!?
As for being a Fragdoll hottie do you ever travel outside of the country for promotions and photoshoots or stuff like that?!?

It's not really a question, more of a suggestion, but you could just talk about what it's like being a fragdoll. Sort of a "day in the life of" type of thing for those who don't know how you operate.
By the way, you look great in glasses.

@ Linkyshinks - Sorry to hear about your sad Guinea tale. I really liked the two we had and was gutted we had to take them back. However, their food bill would have been astronomical. Those boys could really eat.

Aha
you are attending dance classes? That's neat
I love dancing too. It gives you a complate Serotonin high
About Frag Dolls, well I must visit the site more often it is a really neat site

Oh and what are a few of your responsabilitys as a frag doll?
Posted Apr 24, 2008 9:07 pm PT
Great questions everyone! Keep 'em coming

A lot of game journalists usually have an interest in designing game or game concepts. Would you guys ever want to go into game design and if so what kind of game would you like to make?
Personally I'd go for a carrier pigeon simulator....but thats me

Do the any frag dolls like peanut butter?
Why do you Jam, have SUCH red hair?
Do the frag dolls work on community projects/charity and bringing gaming to the "poor" or those not able to afford and xbox/pc/wii/ps3 etc??

Do you feel what you do as a Frag Doll will provide you and the others with good experience for whatever your "next step" is? If so, in what directions? Would the "next step" just be a stepping stone into a career? What skills do you think you can carry from this into other fields?

"INKling-

Too true, eating so much leads to their demise in Peru, they get washed down with Pisco there as a cure for Altitude sickness. I did not partake myself, the thought of eating them sickens me to the core (deep fried too). I instead chewed a lots of Coca leaves, washed down with Pisco
