Does anyone know where i can find tutorials on how to use the colour mod (like when the game first starts, but whatever colours i want) and the Game-speed modifier thingy to make it go in slomo or fastforward? I'm hopless at doing the niggly bits in source. Any help would be much appreciated, ta.

Astral projection (as an idea) is pretty cool, there's been several 'cases', one of the most famous i think was onboard a tanker far out sea, the captain had seen a projection of a man who told the ship to turn some degrees west or something, anyway captain did it and stumbled acrossed a shipwreck with a survivor, looked exactly like the projection. :o

Jesus, a time traveller? He's the son of God, nobody would just travel back in time have some random anti-liquid boots and use a material changing ray to change water to wine. Its pointless.
What i said i said mockingly. Besides if so i could find one reason he would go back in time - to invent christianity, to give the future a less bleak outlook because christianity though as false as i think it is has had many positive results.
You really shouldn't throw the word "impossible" around, fellas.
dang right there, most of what we learn related to the paranormal is beleif - not proven to be true but also not proven to be false. Words like impossible and definate dont belong.

ARG Damn it, you say HL is fantasy - that is how you should look at Paranormality, it is how i enjoy it. I doubt all of its credibility highly, but i look at it for fun much as i play HL for fun. Same dif, and dont go saying no its not because one is set in reality and one isnt, hl presents an idea thought up in reality - paranormal things are thought up/of and have supposedly occured in reality! But still im not saying i beleive in any of it.

Oh and ChickenFist that Spontaneous combusty link you posted doesnt explain shit, most reported cases are found with just the top and bottom extremeties (scalp and feet) intact with internal organs blasted up into the top remains. Clothes are relatively untouched as are the surroundings. Still, the validity of spontaneous combustion in general is low.

And how do you know they are a hoax or bullshit??? you dont! For all you and everyone knows you could get off your computer, go for a piss, get abducted, probed in the ass and have your genitalia spontaneously combust on you! then youd be fucked and amazed

size matters not...

More paranormal events:
1) Moving Coffins - some tomb in oistens bay (wherever that is) is constantly opened to find the tombs scattered haplessley across the ground, they are stacked back propaly and the tomb is sealed. Authority members come back later open the tomb to find coffins scattered again... constantly.
2) The sinking of the titanic is supposedly linked to 'the curse of the mummy' :quizzical:
3) People vanishing into thin air - infront of people. Reports that people see people just dissapear mid-movement into a haze of red dust, especially around one particluar rock formation at Macedon called 'Hanging Rock'. Four girls and a french teacher went missing from there, two girls were later 'returned'. Another dissaperance in a crammed airport - a girl and her nanny dissapear, a strange women tells the mother to pray for there safety and they are renturned, oddly they were stuck to eachother and had to be pulled apart, nanny went mad :nuts: . One more of a couple in a hotel almost sucked into the floor, but manage to escape out the window and flee.

i love this type of shit..

Ive just thought of another one! Somewhere overseas i hear that long ago they found strange hoof-type prints around an old town, and leading on for miles, they were'nt normal as seeing how they went horizontally along some walls and were found melted into roofs and metal walkways... fanatics beleived satan trudged through the town in search of sinners or something i think (it's been a while since i heard of this and my memory may be off a little).

Just wondering what the TWHL community thought about everything paranormal (this type of thread has probably been done before but this is the now not the past). In the 'Fears' thread theres been mention of Spontanious Combustion and the Bloody Mary game (by me), im very fasinated and creeped out by paranormal ideas, ive looked up some info on this type of stuff and it's quite interesting and shocking to think about.

This idea called HUMAN DIAMAGNETISM GRAVITY ANTENNA LEVITATION for instance is gaining scientific recognition recently, it involves magnetic points on the earth and using the human body as 'antenna' to counter gravity and levitate any mass ( including objects too heavy to lift by human muscle ). Whilst it's all pathetically scepticle and almost all unproven its still very interesting.

So... what do you all think about the paranormal, or have you had any... odd experiences? :

light candles put them either side of the mirror, close and lock up (if your bathroom door does) Stare into the mirror it should be dark, close your eyes...
there are several variants of what to do next:
  • say Bloody Mary 3 times then open your eyes
  • spin around saying Bloody Mary 13 times, looking at the mirror at each rotation
  • and more
some version include different names such as just mary or bloody tom...

anyway once you do that there are several different things that may supposedly happen:
  • you will see a vision of the blood-soaked mary and she will attack you either gouging your eyes out or scratching you up! :aggrieved:
  • you will go mad and apparently scrath yourself up.
  • you will live the rest of yourlife in mad hysterics.
Freaky really, i think ive read to much into it! its 11pm here and im gettin creeped out :nervous:

Now im pissing as i always here funny noises in my house (looking around nervously).

I get scared of quite alot generally speaking but the only way to get over fear is to learn from it.
