The poster is done and just needs to be double-checked for correctness. The final part of my paper is taking a little longer than I wanted but ideally it should be up by the end of the day today.

Poster
Hello everybody, its been a busy day!
I first did some comments on the other U.Discover Scholar's blogs, then started working on my poster. While looking for pictures, I came across 2 new articles which I read and one new book (really new, as in published a month and a half ago) which I ordered off interlibrary loan. After that, I went back to my poster. Fairly productive day if I do say so myself.
On that note, I posted the link to my Poster in progress. I have only one more bubble block to finish which corresponds to the rest of what I want to work on for my paper. I'm planning on me, more or less, being done by Monday.

Paper Update
I finished making corrections to the rough draft that I had posted. I am still working on the other sections but I just wanted to touch up what I had so far. Right now, the 4 sections are 5,200ish words. Hopefully, I will get a lot done during the weekend and will have more additions to post.

Change of Plans
Hello all,
Even though I did not accomplish what I said and hoped I would but I want to assure you all that it was not spent in vain. I read a new book that I got from the library and a new article I received from interlibrary loan. Moreover, I worked on my presentation for next week's meeting and my condensed paper I plan on submitting for publication. So even though I haven't done much writing, I still have been working diligently on my project for U.Discover.

Outline Update
Just to let everyone know, the finished detailed outline is up! I've been working all day so I think I'm going to relax for a bit. Either by tomorrow or Wednesday, I plan to have the rule section finished and if I am super-ambitious, I might be able to finish the section about refining what type of ethics are we dealing with when it comes to video games. Once this is done, I will start working on my presentation, which I have to give for the other U.Discover scholars during next week's lunch-time meeting.
Wish me luck,
B. F. Pons

A little out of place, I realize this, but over the July 4th Weekend, I was able to catch up on some The Office episodes I missed during the school year. I just loved this quote from the episode "Business Ethics" so much that I had to post it.
Back to this blog, I would just like to update with the fact that I am re-reading through the articles I have with a more focused mission of what I am looking for. I am doing this for my current task of adding quotes and arguments from these articles into a detailed, yet not very organized or good looking, outline at the bottom of my paper. Though this is taking a little longer than I expected, I realize that it will be worth the work in the long run. I figure, since I already have 2,000 words, I do not have to worry about the length of my draft, so I can focus in on what I want to say. Moreover, with all the articles cited and quoted, when I have a chance to go back to my paper, there will be not much left to do. All I will have to do is connect the points together and add my own analysis. It will be very useful so I have everything I want to say in front of me with little notes of how I want to say it. And, I won't have to worry about seeing something later one that I want to add to the article but now don't have a place to put it.
After the outline, I am planning on finishing the section on the formal and informal rules in a video game. So expect updates on when the outline and/or the next section has been finished and uploaded to the link.
