The whole house eh? I don't think I've ever tripped a breaker before. My house is new so it's safe to say the circuts are a bit harder to overpower since there are so many LOL. Older houses seem to have more problems with fuses blowing or circut breakers tripping because A), there aren't enough outlets in a room so everything is stuffed into one outlet on one circut, B) new wiring is added by adding onto an existing circut to cut corners instead of runing a new circut. Probably other reasons too.

About the forum games, I feel bad not doing them but I've been somewhat busy and I don't want to do some games and not others. Let's just say my art teacher is a bit demanding LOL.
