I'm pretty sure that everyone understands that this game encompasses a multitude of different zones which have their own cultures, communities, rules, graphics, settings, staff, ideologies, etc. The problem is, even though all these zones are seemingly separate, they're still all inevitably related through the game known as SubSpace and the game client known as Continuum. In fact, the majority of these zones are connected and centralized through the SSC biller, and a great portion of players, while loyal to one zone, will still venture into others. A website is a website. There's nothing stopping these other zones from having their own web communities. But I do think, that to a certain extent, some form of centralization is needed. A one stop shop where newbies and regulars alike will be able to obtain all the basic information, screenshots, downloads, forums, news & events, and links to other related websites. A single zone alone will only advertise itself, talk about itself, and thus appeals to a smaller spectrum of potential gamers. To add, most zone websites are so very rarely updated that you wonder if they're alive at all. That was also one of the major criticisms of SubSpace Downloads, it was left in the hands of so few that no one cared to maintain any of it. We need to show to others that this game is still alive, healthy, and active. My only issue with Polix's changes is that there's absolutely nothing on the website that makes me want to go back. The forums already provide me with the news (though you should consider adding an rss feed to the site for those who aren't part), I already know what Continuum is, and the top navbar already includes the rest of the info I need. In other words, it's lacking user-generated content. It's sad to say, but Continuum is dead, and it alone will not be enough to attract people. Consider galleries, score information (yes, I know), randomness, quicklinks to server modules and bot plugins, allow page commenting, video submissions, user guides, public maps, etc.

I never knew subgame would recycle itself if it lost connection to the billing server. ASSS though falls back on its internal authentication system/player database and displays a message stating that the connection to the biller was lost. It will then periodically check to see if the biller is back up and reconnect. The end behaviour is similar to that of subgame's 'proxy'.

This thread's been neglected for too long. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=na0mYSFPoCU

Uhhhhh... It really doesn't address the problem at hand, which was asking for donations to upkeep the above-mentioned zones. It has nothing to do with the SSC; even if they weren't connected to the biller it would still cost money.

Why are you running DCME from the rar archive? Extract the entire thing into a folder somewhere on your computer, and place the respective library file either in the same folder, or in C:/Windows/System32.

I think it's mainly Quebec universities that make such a clear-cut distinction. Since at my university, the term 'thesis' is used all around. For precision, you just tag on what type of thesis paper it is (Master's Thesis, Honours Thesis, Undergraduate Thesis, etc.).

Lynx also managed to achieve it by running continuum through wine: http://krslynx.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=51&Itemid=59

Yeah, tm will always still be around, you of all people should know better! Well, he doesn't play as uber often anymore. And that really sucks about your windshield :/ I'm by no means rich (actually I'm broke T_T), so 450$ would def be a killer on my wallet too. Hope all goes better though.

Is there a way to ping the biller to find out if it's online? If not, it could be achieved by having an asss zone update and forward the status should the biller ever go offline. Anyhow, pretty nifty page.

The purpose of the analogy was to explain that there can be multitudes of reasons why someone would choose to go through the private sector, in the same way there can be multitudes of reasons why someone would want their own pool rather than go to a public one. Most of it boils down to convenience. - I, for one, live in a rural community, so for me it's more convenient to have a pool in my backyard than travel all the way to the nearest city. You could regard it as time wasted. Yet, I don't doubt that the public pool is beneficial for the masses, including myself and those around me, so I have no reason to object to its existence. The fact that the public pool is cheaper or may offer better service or quality has nothing to do with my choice. - In the same way, the fact that you don't pay for public health care has little impact on those who have their minds and pockets set on going through private one. And, most of those who do go through the private sector still acknowledge and support the public one. It's not contradictory. I stated that what the public health care sector doesn't provide is what merely constitutes the core of the private sector. The private sector can still provide everything that the public sector does, though it's much smaller, more costly, and arguably less widely used. The latter factors are what makes it an ideal choice for people who have the money, since it has the effect of making their services faster. And speed is one of the main arguments against adopting such a "Canadian system". If you absolutely want to see it as a competition, then it ultimately boils down to the difference between the two types of systems. Our public health care system prioritizes people with more life-threatening issues first, whereas the private one often prioritizes money first. As for the Canadians going to the US for health care, I'd still love to see actual statistics and reasoning. According to the Canadian National Population Health Survey, 0.5% of Canadians sought medical care in your country, with less than a quarter having expressly travelled there to get that care. The only way to make a bold statement that the Canadian structure doesn't work and the American one does, would be to do a comparative survey of the number of Americans who get medical care in Canada, then add on Mexico. And then finally refine both studies to determine whether those who travelled expressly for medical care were covered under their home systems.

That's like saying why bother have a pool in your backyard when you can just go to the public one. Afterall, it's way cheaper and you don't have to maintain it. Why bother with the one you may not be actually using at all? Why bother with the cost? Why waste the space? Why have something that doesn't benefit everyone? What's the point? - You can find reasons to anything, and arguments pro and con everything; it all ends up being subjective. Not every service is fully covered under public health care, such as dentistry, optometry and prescription drugs to name a few; so many employers offer additional private health insurance to cover this specific range of services. These form essentially the core of the entire private sector. There's no actual competition between the private and public health sector; the private sector still has to abide by strict regulations and, ultimately supports the public one. On the other hand, treatment and medical care through the private sector can still end up covered under the public health system. The two are integrated and interrelated, not clear-cut separate. I don't see why you're so afraid of a yin-yang structure.

Yes, yes, I've heard it all. So I've taken the liberty to bold the part that's so so wrong about your ideology. Now, that having been said, can you actually back up any of those claims with factual statistics that compare the Canadian system to the American one? And can you actually blame wait times on government health care? And can you actually give me statistics on the number of Canadians who actually travel to the United States specifically for quicker treatment. It's a fear tactic employed namely by Americans as a way to prevent the adoption of a more egalitarian health care system. By overgeneralizing that a great portion of Canadians go to the United States to get treatment, they can persuade people into believing that the adoption of a more socialized health care system will lead to the decline in medical innovations that can only be achieved in the United States' current privatized health care system. The problem is, the majority of Americans know absolutely nothing about the Canadian health system, and that's what makes this argument quite sad. The most evident fallacy is that there aren't actually very many Canadians crossing the border merely to get 'better' treatment. The Canadians who do go to the United States do so because certain advancements or practices are not yet available in Canada. The same applies to Americans who come to Canada for medical treatment. Essentially, each and every country tends to focus on different areas of research, which enable them to specialize in certain domains better than other countries. The second argument is that a socialized health care system leads to longer waiting periods, so these supposed Canadians cross the border for faster treatment. The obvious flaw with this is that Canada does have a private health care sector. If someone with the money really wants to get something done as soon as possible, they can. Taxes make no difference, since a Canadian will still be paying taxes for the main health care system, whether he goes through the local private sector or abroad. Thus, the private sector exists as a complementary system. The other flaw is that wait times are merely a parallel to how hospitals are organized. Some hospitals in the United States have much higher waiting periods than most in Canada, while many in Canada can be slow due to being understaffed (in regards to the population) and disorganized. In reality though, most Canadians are quite proud of their health care system. Abuse occurs when people come in and bring their children all the time to the hospital for every little symptom, or when paranoid people return every so often to check up on whether a new treatment is miraculously available. Some Canadians would like to see these nuisances scared off by requiring a minimum fee (even if as low as 5$), so that people with actual issues can obtain faster service.

Quit demeaning yourself to the likes of rootbear.

Ok. I hate it when people use the whole "OMG CANADA" argument. Do you even understand Canada's health care system? If so, I would really love to hear you explain to me: 1) Why you would wait an entire day for an appointment 2) Why that has anything to do with Canada's public health care system 3) How it differs from Canada's private health care sector 4) How this applies to every single hospital or doctor's practice across the country There's so much ignorance in your comment it's not worth continuing. I'll leave you with this advice, turn off Fox news for a minute and stop comparing our health care system to your bill.

So why not do it yourself?

Yeah, I hate to see that all of Larrythehamster's work went to waste. :/

The script was pulled offline sometime late 2006 - early 2007, not long after sscentral was layed to rest and merged into the forums.

How long does it go on for? I gave up after a while... I'm pretty sure I had to name the same colour 8 times.

Well right now I'm crushed by school and work, so I don't really have as much time as I would like to contribute to Deva. Nonetheless, people still come and play around. And of course, tm would argue there's always plenty to return to

Well, if that stuff interests you, you ought to look up the series "9/11 Coincidences" on youtube.
