  1. Picard... are you a hossier, or a hoosier... Your !@#$%^&*le and sig are contradicting
  2. I had a game with 100% of the stuff, but I had ONE death... Since this is quite unacceptable, I decided to start a new game to get 0 deaths. Anyone else loves/loved this game?
  3. When I first read that topic, your old avatar was still showing up... but I found it funny anyway because I could picture it...
  4. nuff said
  5. Maybe built-in free hookers service
  6. All the spelling mistakes and capital letters confuse me... are they part of the riddle or what?
  7. some bots (ball spawner Merv plugin, ship restricting Merv plugin...) stuff (17th, other stuff)
  8. There are 2 reasons I can see for this:1- Limitations of the graphics; the graphics include each angle of the ship, the rotations are not generated from one image. So this means that the graphics of each ship shows all 40 angles. Making more than that would make huge files (open ships.bm2 in your graphics folder in Paint if you don't know what I'm talking about). So if it 'shows' only 40 angles, it would be confusing if the ship itself still used the 'real angle'; you'd see your ship graphic perfectly straight, but could not go completly straight. 2- Which brings me to #2, it would be impossible to be facing completly straight
  9. 46 is kind of a nice number, though.
  10. And that sucked :/ It was annoying, and any sane person knows exactly how it ends after 5 seconds
  11. That's not a bug... it's just you not being quick enough on the keyboard Also, the game has 40 directions, but it also stores your 'real' direction... like if you hit the right arrow for a VERY short time, you might do like a half rotation tick (each of the 40 positions are 9 degrees apart, so maybe you do 6.7 degrees or something); so the next time you hit the arrow, it will take less time to 'reach the tick' , and if you hold it slightly longer you'll be in the next tick already. Maybe if your FPS (frames per second; hit esc-F to see) is pretty low, it might be skipping a bit more. DSB ships have a rather quick rotation rate, which is the only reason why it happens more there for you edit: And with a joystick, there seems to be 2 speeds of rotation. If you move the joystick slightly, you'll rotate at half-speed or so. Also, as a reference, a ship like DSB's terrier probably has a rotation speed of 300-350. A speed of 400 means it takes exactly 1 second for the ship to make a full 360 degrees rotation. So at 300, it takes 1,333 seconds to do a full rotation... meaning if you want to rotate only of 1 position (9 degrees), you'd have to hold down the arrow for 1/30th of a second. Anything more than that could make you rotate twice. Sooo... if your FPS is lower than 30 frames per second, there is a good change it skips sometimes
  12. So that's what you did with your million points...
  13. Hall of fame is 'all time records' , first place finishes depend on the 'current' scores And we had set 'auto-prune' of scores for a moment, so some old scores were resetted (but they stay in the hall of fame).
  14. You had more points than anyone else, and wasted them all already
  15. by default, most of the pdf printers do use the name of the file by default. However, I needed to change that; I needed it to have the name of the excel SHEET, not the excel workbook. And with all the googling I did, this was the only solution that worked. Oh, and cutepdf sucks I remember printing some office do!@#$%^&*ents and they always came out wrong and full of glitches. I trust Adobe Profesionnal much more
  16. One reason and one reason only.... To show off Actually, that way they don't need a parking lot (or only a much smaller one, anyway)

    Lagged...

    hopone sucks... people often get lag from them
  18. I think it's been down for a while now; it was on SSM
  19. I count my chicken before they hatch... and I make omelettes with them
  20. for work well, internship (lol I typoed 'intern!@#$%^&*' ...), so it's indirectly for school but anywah, our university has 3 semesters per year, 3x 4 months, so we have a summer semester. But our program includes 3 paid internships I printed these things today at work, but I wasn't able to print the pdfs for the reasons stated above, and had to finish that tonight... And now I realise that even if I wanted to, I couldn't have done it at work; cause I had to go through Adobe Distiller, and I don't have it at work, and I'm not admin on my computer either (yet)
  21. ROFL wow Have 3 columns of excel files... 4 NOW OMG LOL I'm running a macro that prints spec sheets ... and it has to open a bunch of excel files to print them... forgot to make it close them after lol. I just generated 135 pdf files in like... 3 minutes WOOHOO FINALLY (printing a paper version automatically was easy... but printing pdfs was a pain in the !@#$%^&*; you can't specify the pdf filename from Excel... you have to make it print a postscript file (which you can name), then throw it in Acrobat Distiller to make a pdf) Also, all these excel files were generated programmatically (sp?) from an equipment list
  22. man lol... pure gold... IT'S JUST LIKE A MINI-MALL How the !@#$%^&* did he manage to make this crap last 2 LONG minutes? A 15 seconds commercial would have been more than enough And LOL... "He could be an homosexual" "He may appear normal"
