So, after weeks of my friends trying to convince me to shave (I had been shaving, but the part I was trying to grow out wasn't coming in so well) I finally caved. I got what there was of the goatee cleared with the back, but when it came time to use the main part of the shaver, one of the razors fell apart. And went in the sink. Luckily, it didn't go all the way to the U-bend, and I managed to fish it out with tweezers, but now I have to wait for it to dry before I can put it back together and finish shaving.

Okay so get this, I walk over to my wi-fi browser for no particular reason, but I walk over none the less and it's COVERED in tiny little ants. We occasionally get them in the spring but just if we leave food out or dirty dishes in the sink. This was completely different. I pick it up and underneath are more of them, and tons of eggs and larvae too. I quickly run and grab the vacuum and suck them all up, but more keep pouring out from INSIDE the router, turns out the ants decided that my router would be the perfect place to set up a colony. So after shaking this thing out for about 15 minutes they stopped coming out, and I had a while ago sucked up the queen. I proceeded to dump the ants contained in the vacuum out in the forest.

I think they were in there because of all the rain we got, lots of areas here are flooded and many roads and bridges are washed out. Maybe their actually colony got flooded and they decided the wi-fi browser would be the perfect place to set a new one. The funny thing is they didn't seem to damage it at all, it was working fine before and it works fine now and now if they come back they will die a slow painful death of being poisoned.

Yeah imagine this with 10,000 tiny ants covering it.

So, because everyone seems to be busy programming games and telling the world about it, I would like to tell the world that I have been doing on-the-side programming for a game called SUANGFG (Super Ultra Awesome Ninja Gun Fighting Game). It is at the stage where I could release it as a flash game or something (because it is not all that impressive), but I just keep on adding things, plus the tournament mode glitches up. It does provide 20 minutes of fun, tho.

Here is a video of game-play (it is an outdated build, tho. The bot in this build is really stupid. I fixed him.)

E-Mail me or something if you want a copy, because I'm not planning to sell this for money.

(forgot to buildcubemaps, so no reflections in those pics.. SORRY!)

I'm not sure what i'll end up porting this to, but probably multiple games. HL2DM, CSSDM, De,Cs,Fy,Ka, and possibly GG. For barebones release, all i really have to do is add spawns and some clipping.

This map is meant to be an exact port of the original game, not renvisioned in any way, but i'm open to making more severe changes if you-all think it would be important enough.

So looking forward to any suggestions you-all might have! Including but not limited to:

-what would be the best game to port this to?
-any ideas on how i can handle carepackages
-Teams will now be 8x8 - What should the maximum team size be (for teamplay gametypes obv)

Also, looking for 2-3 people interested in beta testing, PREFERABLY, to those who own and play BLOPs.

Hey guys! So, as I have been following the P2 mapping community, I have been testing with the In-Game Movies, just like in the elevators and such, and I got them to work, after a huge google search I Have come to the conclusion I am the first, and tell the community about it, I get nothing. I saw a shit load of posts asking how to do it. But yet I figure it out and suddenly they are worried about cubemaps. Fuck this shit. I'm waiting for the official SDK. Back to minecraft I suppose.

Interesting stuff coming out of Scott's mouth:

"When I grow up, I am going to buy a yellow Corvette."

"I love playing Portal."

"When you get stuck in a room, use the portal device to shoot a hole in the wall."

Recently started playing Amnesia: The Dark Descent as sort of a family game you could say, where us teens would huddle up in the living room at 1 am to play. I'm the one in control of the kb+m whilst the others are there so I don't piss my pants or shit them either for directions.

We've barely progressed through the game from what I can tell (we just "burnt" down the organic mass blocking the way to the refinery) but I can assure you to those who haven't played it, the atmosphere is perfect. I've played the previous titles from Frictional Games (Penumbra series) and Amnesia carries on the pant soiling, cower-in-the-corner gameplay and atmosphere. Oh and we had our first monster encounter. Daniel almost lost his sanity (as marked by "..." in the description box) and we almost did too.

Well, this is the first time I'm properly surfing the internet on a mobile device. I'm currently traveling at about 80 km/h( know this thanks to my integrated gps :-) by train, towards my home. I`m also at about 200 m altitude. Although the screen is kinda small, I'm getting used t to it. Also, typing
on the touch screen is muxh fsster thanon tegular phone ketboards, but with some mistskes...( obvious).
It'll be odd to read this again on my pc once i get home.
