  1. TSR deserved to die, nothing good since early 80s on Series on Wizard Of the Coast · · Score: 1

    Seriously, they never developed a space genre that was fun... It seemed like they had tons of good ideas, but no good rules to back em up.

  2. Tournaments in theory are cool, but lawyering... on Series on Wizard Of the Coast · · Score: 1

    It sucks when you learn the instant kill you on the first turn move is suddenly allowed!!!! You knew about a killer deck but you heard an official statement that it was illegal... but just so happens the ruling changed. Guess what, turn 1, you're dead... Happens all the time, same with cheating players, whining players, and uber strict players... I almost fucking beat the shit out of the person I was playing against once because he was lying to a judge. I quit after that realizing how lame it was.

  3. Yeah pretty much, Hasbro is a whore. on Series on Wizard Of the Coast · · Score: 1

    www.ebayrp.bizland.com Thats my MMORPG I'll release... Since gaming companies have gotten so shitty, I can make a sucessful title and I don't even need money to back me.

  4. The key is there is no expensive main server on Gnutella at One Year · · Score: 1

    You can't claim someone else's gold is lower, or you'll be placed up in contest. Same way a teacher in elementary school knows who the liar is. He keeps pointing out people doing stuff wrong while everyone else says something different. Liar/hacker detected and he's no longer allowed to play the games with other kids.

  5. ROFLMAO Clawhammer. on AMD focuses efforts on Palomino core · · Score: 1

    Is this what you take to it when it crashes so much?

  6. Gnutella can be expanded into MMORPGS on Gnutella at One Year · · Score: 1

    I came up with the idea of Gnutella in tandem, I started telling everyone my great idea for secure MMORPGs and unhackable Starcraft and they say,"Dude thats already out, its gnutella..." Basically, all game traffic in a network is monitored by a ton of random clients... When you log off, your information is stored on other people's PC. So when you log on, and claim you gained a ton of stuff in the interim, a few people need to back you up... So you can't hack the game. Of course game programmers in general are a slow lot, and there is not much commercial viablity of a structure where you can't charge your customers monthly... So prolly won't see it for decades.

  7. I self defined my major- Scientific Computing on Programmers for Scientific Research? · · Score: 1

    On after thought, its not fun at all... You get to see your limitations full force. Basically you take a strong core of computer science, then take a handful of sciency courses. Of course, later I realized I was applying forced masochism upon myself... If only I could take back the last 6 years and went to state college instead. Ugh Carnegie Mellon is hell. I hate my life.

  8. Dude is on crack on All Science is Computer Science [Y/N]? · · Score: 1

    Science is the exploration of new ideas. Computer science is just computer theory and general programming principles. Without Biologists/Physicists/Chemists etc, you won't get anything that often.

  9. Seems like it :) on New Fiber Development · · Score: 1

    No one really pays scientists even though what they do benefits all of mankind... T

  10. I hate UO, they stole some of my ideas... on Lord British Gives UO2 the Axe · · Score: 1

    I don't care... I gave up with my MMORPG after UO came out and being poor + going to CMU was really getting hard for me. Now that I see that no corporations can design fun 'content' but can just do good art... I'm psyched to finish my MMORPG. However lame the graphics might seem at start. www.ebayrp.bizland.com

  11. Teletubbies Revenge rated G... until on B.C. Officially Proposes Video Game Regulations · · Score: 1

    Until you find the hidden level where you slaughter them like crazy! Woot! I can't wait til a law like that passes... Then I'll deliberately fuck with little kids minds by making gruesome video games :P Hey I'm not the one rating em eh. This isn't what its all aboot.

  12. Bush got tired of trying to take down carnivore on Bush Won't Be "The Online President" · · Score: 1

    He just couldn't stand all the CIA flak he got from all his emails with,"Gonna kill the United States President." for the subject header.

  13. Yep, I wish I could score you points on U.S. Congress And Email · · Score: 1

    how do I score someone points?

  14. Yeah in HS I never lost a fight on XBox Screenshot Flim-Flammery? · · Score: 1

    Beat up what people thought was the toughest guy at school because he was trying to intimidate me... LOL He couldn't even land a punch Broke some dudes leg... Jump kicked some other dude in the chest so hard it left a big foot mark... I shoulda got into more fights though... I had a stupid 'won't bite first' attitude back then

  15. Arcades only have two hopes of making a comeback on Another Arcade Standby Calls It Quits · · Score: 1

    One is with high speed internet + tournament games. By building a tournament community around a tournament game, people have more togetherness... Would be like the initial SF2 craze amplified 10 fold... The 2nd is by environmental games you can't get at home to make a breakthrough... ala digitized motion detection quests and fighting games. Arcades in the early 80's were better than atari. Nintendo 8bit narrowed the gap, but then TMNT and Sf2 came out in the arcades to catch a 2nd wind... But with today's platforms, there is more power at home. I'm suprised arcades lasted as long as they did... prolly something for parents to throw their kids at while they go shopping.

  16. Lucas has expressed several times he hates actors on Episode II and Computer Animated Actors · · Score: 2

    He's always like,"Actors can never do what I want them to do... I much rather use CGI." Which is tauntamount to saying,"Man I suck at directing. I can't ever get people to do what I want them to do. Good thing I have alot of money behind me."

  17. Who cares? Artist conception a new thing? on XBox Screenshot Flim-Flammery? · · Score: 3

    Xbox isn't out... So what if they paste in trees? Its not like its lying and is going to really come out with atari2600 graphics. And I was so looking forward to the lens flare effect! Damn you microsoft! I had it for the last time! M$ has lots of stuff to be upset about, mainly how it grinds software development to a halt by its strong arm tactics, but doctoring photos... Big deal, I think that they should do stuff like that...

  18. Yeah! You're right AND phone calls!!! on Anti Spamming Act 2001 Proposed · · Score: 1

    Don't fucking call me asking to change my long distance service

  19. Kinda lame... on Park Wars Released · · Score: 1

    Yeah one or two parts were kinda ok... and they did work with 3d effects n stuff... But it wasn't 1/10 as funny as south park is... Shoulda used kenny as the dude that dies in the light sabre battle for one... Stupid hard core Star wars fans would have laughed at the start because they know so much about it... bleh... A waste of time watching it really.

  20. Skimmed it. looked stupid on Internet Speed Applied to Careers · · Score: 1

    I bore of anyone who looks to a 'job' or a 'career' to the means of an end of anything. Just create something everyone needs or get in a team to get real stuff done. If you look to a job in its physical sense, of coming in, doing your hours and going home... I really hope you feel confused. Go home, think about accomplishing something, then come back and try to get shit done.

  21. Heh, now's your chance, steal M$'s IP on Windows 2000 Source Code Gets (A Few) More Eyes · · Score: 1

    Take their open source, pull apart pieces you need... say to be compatible, creatively plagurize it, and its yours. M$ does it all the time, finally a chance to get back :)

  22. He needs some military power on Why Offshore Napster Won't Work · · Score: 2

    Move it to Africa, and use the profits to employee natives into factories to build robotic war machines. Once you have a military power, it'd be a pain to get you out. Wait screw Napster, just get a bunch of natives to help build robotic war machines of mass destruction.

  23. I never thought about propelling the bots on Projectile ReconBots · · Score: 1

    But the idea of a series of bots in communication to get a feeling of omnipotency is the way to go... I was gonna dig into my pockets and make a team of paint ball opponents this summer... But to think of making reconnasance bots that you fire... Now thats cool... if it stays intact, lands and looks, then maybe it could attack itself.

  24. One last thing... on WorldForge Forges Ahead · · Score: 2

    b4 I learned of Gnutella... I designed a network that was unhackable p2p... Basically it revolves around the assumption that the gnutella community is large, so there was at least one person who saw you last time you logged off and saved. So your data is always stored on other people's puters... Its like client/server but its patroled by computer COPS... etc. RNG are based on a bunch of other computers rolling, and all games are watched by random computers... Kinda tough to cheat... if you do, you're ousted from the community

  25. MMORPGS are easy to complete on WorldForge Forges Ahead · · Score: 1

    They take about 4,000 man hours minimal investment. Then when your game is up, you're looking at a good 1-4 thousand in maintainence. Just convince a significant other that they should support you for a year or two while you create a work of art. Now thats always the tricky part.
