Hello everyone! I hope you all survived the 21st, and IF the apocalypse has started in your country tell me quick so I can grab my ammo and water! Hazardous has been spread thin along the country the last month or so and will continue to be until next year.
Lol well everyone the future plans for now are looking like this: Within the next couple of days I will post the Slender review (finally! :p) and on that same post sign off until next year.
Then next year we will formalize another schedule specifying who posts on what day and maybe introduce some new authors.
We will also start to introduce a server we have built to host 24/7 servers for Minecraft , among others (MW2 and maybe some file hosting too).
So friends the year is nearly complete and we have big plans for the next one, stay tuned! :)
TheStranger out.

An Offer
Hello everyone! Finally we're done! I know that we've been MIA for the last couple of weeks but that will change! Right now though most of Hazardous is on holiday so our bigger plans will have to wait for awhile.
So long though I have started my review on Slender which is now known as Slender: the eight pages and you can expect that to come up soon. As an extra I am also including some info on a spin-off called Shadow of Slender but that is for another time.
Right now though I am offering anyone and everyone who has any photo, video editing skills , journalism skills or just a plain interest in reviewing and talking about gaming an opportunity to post here on Hazardous LAN! I know a few people have been interested so if you are, comment or send me an email and I'll get back to you.
That's all for today except we would also like to wish DeathStrike a happy birthday for today and hope he enjoys it, enjoy the last few days before the apocalypse begins ;)

Freedom!...almost
Hello everybody! It feels like its been so long! Hmm...well maybe cause it has been a while :p Fear not! We are nearly finished and will be on Friday, then we will provide with all our valuable insight everyday again. First thing I'll start with will be the new Slender (finally right!?) and then an awesome game we recently discovered called DayZ, just I time too as the standalone version of DayZ should be released around then as well. So hold on for just a couple days longer! We are also going to change the theme of the whole site to something a little more festive.
Just...a few...more...
Until then TheStranger out.

Scamsters!!
Hey everybody, tonight I come to you with a warning...
Yesterday I was phoned by some "concerned worker" from a global call center, letting me know that they have detected that my pc is downloading very dangerous unwanted data (bear in mind that my pc wasn't even connected to the Internet at that stage). He then instructed me to open up my windows logs to show me these "errors" (all they were was programs closing uxpectedly or running out of memory etc really not dangerous).
He then tried to get me to visit his site by typing the address in run and to download some of his "cleaning software" for free! Which is actually remote access software. Well while he was instructing me to do this, I researched the site and found other complaints about it. That is when I ended the call.
Now all of you reading this should realize it is a scam,but for those who aren't technically inclined it might have worked, so please be aware and let people know about this. I am trying to find ways to stop this, I'll get back to you on that. The sites name is Fix123.org, DO NOT download anything from them!!!
I hoped this helped you

Finals :'(
Hello everybody! You all still here I hope? I came to clarify a bit about what has been happening, we are all still alive and haven't been eaten by zombies yet. What really has happened is that we here in South Africa are just about to start our finals. These exams are EXTREMELY important for us as they will determine wether or not we get into tertiary learning institutions :p
In these next couple of weeks there won't be too many posts but we will try and post as soon as we have the time to with there being at least one post a week. The first post will be the updated Slender review I promise!! I also have plenty more things to review and talk about.
PS: I've had an idea to do reviews on Anime series and movies and would like to know what you guys think about it, please drop me an email at TheStrangerHazardous@gmail.com or comment on this post. I will also put up a poll to make your lives a bit easier.
To all of those writing important examinations and tests, good luck from all of us here at Hazardous :)

rAge! (After action report)
Hello there guys! TheStranger here with another captivating post!(I try :p lol) Exactly one week ago Hazardous was at rAge and I must tell you that this has been an incredibly long week...back to the point though, rAge (or more specifically NAG LAN) was an absolutely awesome experience!
The Lan had a bit of a slow start(the network was very unstable for the first few hours), as it turned out it was because of a couple douches had engineered their pc's to steal as much Internet bandwidth as possible from the network but as soon as the organizers found them and kicked them out though, it worked pretty flawlessly.
As soon as we got settled we started meeting those sitting close to us and I can honestly say that gamers are some of the most friendly people on earth.
Then came time to copy as much as we possibly could, there was no shortage of stuff as there was over 380 Tb's of data. I was able to copy only about 1Tb as I left it till quite late :p So at this very moment we have tons of games to review and to Lan so keep your eyes open for those posts.
We have decided that this week we will each post something about rAge just so you see the story from all sides.
Also coming up is a rewrite of our Slender review with the new version as well as a few new maps. Stay tuned! :)

rAge!!! :D
Hey everybody! It is finally the time for the biggest gaming event this side of Earth (Seriously, it's the biggest gaming event in the southern hemisphere and on the African continent). More info can be found here
So tomorrow rAge starts here in Johannesburg, me and the rest of the guys going to rAge (unfortunately there is just five of us from Hazardous because of the ridiculous time of ticket sales, more about that later) have already started testing every piece of our gear just to make sure we don't get caught with our pants down tomorrow.
If you were lucky enough to be one of the gamers to acquire a NAG Lan ticket (like five of us were) you know they might as well be made of gold. Every year the ticket sales beat the previous years record and this year was no different, the tickets sold out in a whopping 40 minutes and trust me it was a close one for us as the ticket procurement company's (Computicket) website could not handle the huge amount of traffic and only released the tickets a half-an-hour later online with some web browsers not being able to see the tickets at all.
So please remember gamers if you need NAG Lan tickets next year rather run down to your nearest Computicket store or face missing this massive event (The rAge expo is still open to everyone who wants to attend, buy tickets at the door.)
This weekend will probably have no posts since we all will be there but as soon as we get back we should have some nice machinima to show everyone.
TheStranger wishing you a good gaming weekend!!
PS: If you see us at rAge or would like to play against us in anything just give us a shout and we will be there :).
PPS: When we come back the first thing we are doing is writing an updated Slender review so stay tuned! :).
