This is one of the most difficult puzzles I played in a while. Frankly, the solution wasn't clear from the start, and I think I spent about 30 minutes trying to solve this map!
It took me a while to figure out the tricks necessary to pass the test chamber. It was almost frustrating :D.
About the mapping- I can't complain. Portal 2 style quality.

Yeah eventually I'll get 3 Dell IPS monitors that I'll put in portrait mode and unite them... in 10 years :p. I can't be thinking about getting a new monior, times are rough and my parents would kick my ass. Besides, I have to save for a laptop... for when I go to the university.

No, there won't be such problems because I will use it rarely. It's one of the reasons I decided to put it even in such an incomfortable place. I will eventually remove the monitor, as this is only experimental and don't want to actually abuse my GPU.

Well, guess what. I got Portal 2 just hours away since I bought Portal 2. That was both a slap on my face but also a nice gift, since I could give it to one of my friends to play in coop :P.

I can date 15 year olds. You should have invited me to the party :).
Don't worry, I'm in the same situation as you- I don't really know how to get involved into a relationship, and I can't get out of my friend zone. I'm quite frustrated by this, as I'm already 18. It's just that for me it's easier to talk to guys than girls just because the guys I talk to mostly have some interests as I have. Most girls I've met are radically different. I know I can't expect every girl to be a gamer or be curios about the sciences or be more technically inclined, but damn, they are almost non-existent!

Well, since I have nobody else to ask, I'm going to put my curiosity here.
-Do you use some kind of program that announces you when the HDD is about to die, or is Windows telling you this? (if yes, what does the error look likewhat does it say?)
-How old is your Hard Disk? What brandmodel is it?
-Have you been putting a lot of stress onto it?
-Ever used a defragmenter?
-What are the symptoms of these hdd errors, how they started happening?
It's important for me to know as I don't own an external storing device. I never experienced problems with hdds(not even on my old Pentium 2), but I know it can happen to me too. I defragment my hdds each week or each 2 weeks.

I think it's too long. The music on the background doesn't really fit for an overall presentation of all the scenes, at least from my point of view. There are some scenes that are too static for this showreel, such as the interview clips.
I don't know what else I can say... it didn't attract me very much.

I wonder how will he feel about this when he'll grow to an adolescent. Will he thank you, or will he ask himself if he had free will in choosing what to become? If he'll become passionate about computer games though, he will most likely be thankful :).

What a terrible man. I consider it sick to watch the little kitty die in torment. But at the same time, I think of the natural laws that are there in the nature. Hunt or be hunted, survive or be killed. But in this case, laws have been violated.
In a very simplistic manner, avoiding the implication of any sentiments, the injustice done here is the unnatural way this event happened. The whole act of the piton killing the cat and then eating it was artificial. It was influenced by an outside force, a force that is aware( the conscience of that sick man). Therefore, he brutally violated the rules of nature, resulting in a fatal ending for the poor cat.
That's why he will go to jail.
I ask you the truth: are you really that sensitized as it seems from your posts?
For example( with no offense): "Dear humanity, I hate you, please die. Your friend, JeffMOD."
Hiroshima.

I got a mini 4-day holiday due to some school problems and also free day for Romania's day. I think my holidays start around 20 December and will last 3 weeks.

All northern Europe people were blond with blue eyes( me being like that too) to me until I saw Notch. Or he is an exception from the rule? Some time ago I watched a documentary which stated that the first blue eyes ancestor is believed to be appeared in about the same area where Romania is now.

The design on this piece of beauty blew me away. I love the creative architecture and the general atmosphere it creates. I bet you worked countless hours just on the minor details, and I'm not talking about those jet fighters... which are lovely. The only problem this map seems to suffer from is what I like to call "staticness". A lot of maps are created this way, like a "museum". Players love to play with dynamic things, even if it's just a simple lift. In your map, you could have made one of your planes a func_train that goes somewhere... wouldn't be much, but it makes the player stay and admire more your map.
There's no doubt I'm gonna rate this 5 stars, but please take in consideration my point in the future :).

Dimbark, you're out of discussion because you just ignored what I said. How can you classify something unfinished as terrible? This map isn't even 25% done...
I uploaded this out of my benevolence(you know, it took time to put all the things together and upload them, I wanted to show that I wanted to participate but didn't make it) and words of negative criticism are thrown at me? How would you feel?

You're kinda crossing the line Bruce Almighty. I now start to comprehend the scale of how much of an asshole you are. My map is not terrible because it can't be: it was never finished. And even if it is terrible in the actual state, you should have described the negative points and give advice. Short, negative answers are not welcome. And I wonder why I gave the attention and I praised one of your maps in the past...
Your good skills are in vain if you're such an awful person.

Oh come on, don't tell me that's offensive! I feel this is a bit of overreaction. If that's the case, or if you guys are too sensible( seriously, it's infuriating to see such over-sensibilisation), then I request an admin to delete my last 3 posts here and the posts related to mine. Rimrook gave me the idea of a short lolcat joke. Just to bring a smile, no intention of insulting. Argh.

I'm not buying any upgrade for my PC besides a 21.5 FullHD monitor perhaps. My next upgrade must include an octalcore. That means it'll have to wait, or if I win some money at the lottery :).

I haven't had a problem with smelling, fever or pain. I really don't know what actually happened, I still have a bit of swelling left. After 5 days of intravenous antibiotics, I went to make a test radiography( I even didn't see it...) and 2 hours later a nurse came in to tell me that I am free to go, but I should return in 7 days for a check. In the meantime, I continue the treatment home. These antibiotics are effectively stealing my appetite.

5 stars for an excellent brain teaser!

[edit] not so easy, but I might try that.
[EDIT] Joebama has problems. Anyway, congratulations!

Awesome item Atom!
Too bad there's practically only one gaming magazine left in my country and they're too poor to offer such prizes...
If it becomes reality.
Also, 25km in 3 ohours is possible. That means ~8km/h. That means running.
Miles, inches and Fahrenheit make no sense.
