Just installed the MSDN "release" of 7 on my secondary drive. I'll post my XP desk whenever I boot back into XP.

I figured since 7 went gold, now might be a good time to start working with it.

in TWHL's Classic DM Server Post #272624
All right, fine, here's the deal. I'll add 2 bots to keep connections coming in.

These bots will either have to be connected 24/7 (unless kicked manually) or they will have to join/leave at random intervals to simulate real players. Those are the only two options Parabot gives. I can't have bots leave as players join, you will have to use amx_votekick to get them out of the game. Everyone can use amx_votekick, so fucking use it if an admin isn't there to clear the server up.

Done.

payload_b3 replaced payload_b2 in the map cycle. All previous versions of payload are still hosted.

jdownloader + rapidshare = no bandwidth hogging = moar happy network users.
Much better than torrents if you have multiple users on the same connection. It's also better for old downloads that don't get any seeds.

There are entire forums dedicated to rapidshare/megaupload/general hosting sharing.

Depends on the Album. Listen to 9,000 Miles from In Silico.
Still has it. Starts at ~2:15 and sticks around for the remainder of whenever drums are used.

It's even in The Tempest at the end, a song where the boom-chish-boochish is totally out of place. It's almost like Pendulum realized that they forgot to use that drumline in the last song of the album and stuffed it there at the end.

Edit: Mutiny or The Other Side would have been better examples. But there's still an annoying lack of creativity in Pendulum's choice of drumlines.

Anything by Bassnectar should do it for you.

I'd recommend the entire "Mesmerising the Ultra" album, with emphasis tracks Mesmerising the Ultra, Leprachauns Arise, Bursting, and Enter The Chamber.

Edit: Pendulum might be down your alley if you don't mind hearing the same "boom chish... boochish" drumline in every. single. song.

in Changing intro music for condition zero Post #272502
Make a new path in you czero folder (or whatever it's called) that matches the GCF's path, and put your song in it. Rename the mp3 to downed_intro and it should play at startup.

Local files can override GCF files, that's why things like custom models work.

Use the "lip" field. Lip is how much room is spared between default open and where the door actually is. So for the door to open 60?, you'll want a lip of 30.

Potatis put a link in the shoutbox that directly linked to voting mp_shipment as MOTM. He got banned for a few days because of it.

Also, MOTM voting was completely thread-based when Kasperg left. There was no system like you see in the map vault now, it was just a post with your vote. being able to discuss what others have voted for undoubtedly contributed to the voting trend for that month.

Now that I think about it, I believe the map in question was Masta Killa's dm_particle. The Citizen ended up taking the cup, anyway.

Kasperg's time of the month hit him hard one day, and he cried himself off the website to weep in a corner and devour gratuitous amounts of ice cream.
I guess you had to be there, because his last post would make him look like a "victim" if you weren't here for his sudden burst of vaginal behavior.
Or maybe that's crossing the line.

Anyway, if I remember correctly it was because people were voting for one map for MOTM as a trend, rather than voting because it deserved it, when he believed he should have won MOTM. He took it personally, and got pissed.

Rowleybob's leave was a little more rational. He left because someone made a journal joking about how Habboi's [?] cat had just died, and felt that it was representative of how immature the whole community due to the admins not doing anything about said journal.

Hell, I think I've rage quit on TWHL at least twice.

in Who the Hell are you again? Post #272216
Zeeba, I already covered all that. And 2.13 an hour is waaaaaaaaay below minimum wage. Again with the tips being considered a reason to lower hourly wages. You should be getting paid more by the hour.

Now that reminds me to retract this statement:
If they weren't considered a valid reason for lowering minimum wages then it wouldn't be a problem.
Expecting tips would still be a problem because minimum wage employees think that their minimum wage job is worth a lot more than minimum wage, which it isn't. You'll get paid more for doing things above and beyond your job through tips, but how much do you honestly think it's worth to write something down on a piece of paper and bring back some plates? It's not physically exhausting, and it can be done with minimal customer interaction. "Hey, I'm your waiter. What'll ya have? Got it, I'll be back with your food shortly"

I can't stress enough that tips are a variable extra, and you shouldn't expect to receive them consistently.

However, giving a tip also reduces the chances of a grumpy waiter doing something to your food.
That's not a "however". That's exactly what I addressed in my last post. Tips are expected by everyone, and they fucking shouldn't be. If they weren't considered a valid reason for lowering minimum wages then it wouldn't be a problem.

Also, you tip after you eat. If the same waiter sees you next time you eat whever and thinks, "There's that guy who didn't tip" then you need to eat there less.

I tip to keep people happy, but I'm not a "generous tipper" to someone who simply wrote down "medium rare steak and side garden salad with italian" and passed it to a kitchen. They didn't do anything special, and therefore I don't feel obligated to shell out an additional 25% of my meal cost to say "nice job, mate!" I'd much rather save that for a waiter who actually deserves it. It saves me money and it makes the better waiters feel good.

All right, I've got to address this:
things I hate: when people don't tip
Tips are supposed to be a generous bonus by the customer for good service. But now they've been factored into employees' pay as a given, which gives owners' reason to lower employees' hourly wages.
So don't hate the people who don't tip. Hate the system for saying tips are a good reason to lower your paycheck.
