I do feel a little...doing-nothing-here-like at TWHL... :

Truth: I'm not entering the compo. I said I would though...
I want to see what my entry would've gotten, though.

(That IS, when I finish it )

There's 23 days left for the compo and I haven't even made half of it...oh well, hopefully I'll get it.

Hello dandyli0n`! This is your 300th login. Woohoo!

Well, hey, noone told me! Oh well, YAY!

I'm planning to join the compo and I hope I get gold but those chances are probably a bit slim...although I am pretty good; it's just that I'm never quite fast enough to actually finish a map and I end up leaving the map alone to let it barf around or something...but heck, if I get at least bronze, then oh happy joy! Just like my first piano competition a while ago: I wanted gold, but I got silver, but hey, I'm still happy .

Oh yeah,

Longest. Explanation. Ever. Made. By. Me.

http://www.twhl.co.za/forums.php?pgt=1&action=viewthread&id=7165&pg=1

(NOTE: Here's a really long explanation!)

-As you should know, there are multiple G-Man entities across Half-Life. Just to point some out, there was one in the window talking to a scientist, one on a ledge where the first houndeyes were, and the ending (obviously). However, there can only be ONE G-Man, so if you kill one, then how would they stop G-Man from showing up again? Well, maybe an env_global or something, but then, how would the ending work then? To recall the ending, (NOTE: Obviously, spoiler for those who haven't played Half-Life 1) G-Man takes away all of your belongings except the HEV suit, claiming they weren't your property (besides the HEV suit). Then, he would offer you a job. So, if you killed the G-Man earlier in the game, who would take away your weapons? Who would offer you the job? See, killing G-Man would ruin the plot since the ending would be messed up, and then G-Man coming back in the beginning of HL2 talking about how you were in statis and blah blah blah wouldn't make sense if you killed him in HL1 because if he was killed, how would he come back? Plus, if you never saw the ending of HL1, then how in the world would you understand the intro of HL2? You wouldn't know what he was referring to as "the job" or "putting you into statis". (NOTE: I didn't actually play HL2, I just played the demo on my bro's comp) So, to prevent that, Valve just made him invincible.

That was really long.

I tried GtkRadiant for Soldier of Fortune II recently...It took a while to get used to..

My personal likes:
+Brush creation is automatic; no need to press ENTER like in VHE
+Is somewhat similar to VHE like the clip tool with the clipper

My personal dislikes:
-Brush deselection: you have to press ESC to deselect, unlike VHE where you can just click on another brush to start working on that
-Carve works the same way as VHE: messy, ugly, bound to get a leak, etc.

Well...

Hmm...I need to make another map...haven't thought of that, but then...no time... :

Something that might spice up the journal...

Hello dandyli0n`! This is your 200th login. Whoa!

Now, maybe if atom can update TWHL so that you can get flying confetti when you get these messages
