PaLO + Jahzel (and occasionally the rest of us) vs. Anonymous poster was funny in hindsight, but I remember getting REALLY wound up by it at the time. Anonymous is on my punch-in-the-face-if-i-ever-meet-him list, so if he's still about (whichever original member it was), step up sir!

The whole "proudly liberal" thing that stillkeeps cropping up now and again was funny too.

Also, jahzzy jehffs far out perspective on EVERYTHING was great. That man should post more. :D

My score was actually 179.09 seconds, however I think it was simply slower on my machine.

I actually assumed that JC was making a witty yet surreal analogy.

Once it seemed clear that Austin, Texas, lawyer Harry Whittington would survive getting accidentally shot by Vice President Dick Cheney,
Yeah but he did have a heart attack of some sort, though. I'd take the more serious stance and ask just how trustworthy a government is when they cover up shootings like this by high ranking officials. And by coverup I mean that Cheney himself had no intention of ever mentioning it, it was the lobbyist he was schmoozing with who made the call.

Who would honestly bother re-reviewing a map, though? Other than a handful of cliques voting for their mates maps.

in Map vault idea, might help... Post #162962
I don't see any reason to have more than 5 stars for an overall review. If, however it was broken down into various aspects of the map, then it would need a higher overall rating for averaging purposes.
But anything above 5 stars gets pointless without a total breakdown of why it is, for example, a 6 instead of a 7 star map.

I used to find games magazines that gave percentages without any breakdown confusing as hell, like saying a game was exactly a 74% good game but leaving the reader to conclude that this number was pulled out of the reviewers ass!

in Religion Post #155369
My religious beliefs (never faith, but I'm hoping to find something to grap onto soon) are always changing. Today I could say atheist and laugh at you, tomorrow I'm not so sure. Point is, I'm doubting religions and It's working for me now. But I've jumped from too many ideas to take heed to, other than the one idea that you should be skeptical. Ironically I pray.

in Has anyone ever built a.... Post #155368
No. I haven't. The most I built when I was younger was a rubber band gun, which has a capability of blinding people at a large distance for some reason (a piece of wood with the belt from a washing machine stretched a lot btw). The only other monstrousity I ever made was a cannon from a pringles can fueled with lighter fluid.

I'd be interested to know if your contraption works, and if so, video/photo please!

in Job Interviews Post #152458
I had one on Tuesday actually. Its a placement funded by the government to get me out to work while I do I NVQ III course. I'm supposed to be starting on the 3rd of January, but there is some uncertainty about the days I'll be studying and the days the place will be able to 'fit me in' to work (they make it sound like THEYRE doing ME a favour by letting me work for fuck all).
I'm crap at interviews, I start to waffle like a madman (anyone whos ever seen Trainspotting; Picture the Spud interview after he takes "a little dab o speed, man" :) ).
The worst interview was when I went for a position as a Lab Assistant and then they asked me a few questions and realised I hadn't a fucking NOTION about working in a lab!

I've had about five or six job interviews, which isn't a lot. There more you've done, the easier they get.

Even by putting that on the end of your post, you still look like a bit of a cunt, saco.

And by 'keep the maps identical, I'd assume that means that when the level changes, whatever brush the monster was standing on should have one in the same position in the next map, to stop it falling off. Same places and dimensions within that area. :)

Brilliant, but it seemed a big "save our planet". The butterfly ruined it :D

2nd: The chimney.
3rd: The silikon butterfly one, as I say, ruined by the butterfly, but I'm sure hippies would love it.
