No survey site is a substitute for a real job. ...but, $40 isn't bad. How long did you spend doing that?

There's a tool called Ophcrack that will crack your Windows password in a bit of time. It is downloadable as a bootable CD. http://ophcrack.sourceforge.net/

I think part of the problem is that managing anything well in Subspace is something that in the business world would command a decent salary and require a decent budget. Instead, someone has to do it for free and find people to work with who will also do it for free.

Heh, I was in Seattle just after the real hot stuff for SeaFair.

I'm getting a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from the California Institute of Technology in 9 days. After that I am taking the summer off to be awesome, and then will work at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. Agreed with D1 and Brain ... I thought I was math beezkneez in high school. Then when I got here I took a placement test and got put into a remedial section of freshman math. :-(

Hah, and they used to laugh at me for using different passwords for everything!

It seems to be working for me.

This is hardly relevant, but someone on another forum pointed out that Continuum is already on RapidGames. http://games.rapidshare.com/gamesnew/detai...p;rubrik=client

It's a state thing here as well, though there are federal rules governing how states issue them.

I think I renewed mine through snail mail. Driving is a privilege, not a right!

Happy birthday Mr. Polix.

Nope, but an awesome place to visit. Somewhere on Highway 178 in California. http://i105.photobucket.com/albums/m222/legoblocks/Pictures/f9e9bc4d.jpg

Toyota Corollas are solid cars. Should last you a long time. Here are some nature pictures I have taken, mostly in the western United States. I've posted these before, so they are repeats for some. They're all from 2006 or before, since I haven't really done anything interesting since then.

Rats, I thought someone had actually PMed me.

I still spec loyally in MG, but it's no fun to play with so few people. I guess me not playing is part of the problem.
-
I basically only play MG, and MG has basically died. If it was lively I'd play. Now I just spec spec spec.

The prize money probably comes from some sort of insurance policy. It's more likely that the insurer would go bankrupt, haha.

Money and spaceships do not mix! And I believe you're looking for the phrase "held in escrow."

Hah ... also Yahoo has a video service?
-
Didn't think I'd be saying this, but good job rootbear. Also Ctrl+Alt+Del is awesome and I hope he gives it a try.

Continuum won!

Wow, looks like someone voted for BuzzerBeater from basically all of the available Tor IPs.

My home zone is Metal Gear CTF. And I know this feature would be an amazing compliment to some of it's events. I'm certainly not a programmer, but if someone can create this 3d subspace you people are working on, I see no way that this is impossible. I know you didn't say it was impossible... but I think it would be a neat thing to try. Sama's right about lag though. My understanding of gameplay is that each client calculates everyone's position based on prior position and velocity, and then updates that as it receives information from the server. Especially with more agile ships, it would be hard to get the collisions right. I can see clients thinking that two ships bumped when they didn't, and thinking that two ships didn't bump when they did. "Bump eats."

Hey, some of you might read Digg or at least know what it is. Continuum made it onto a list of 20 best free PC games. Check it out, page three. http://www.extremetech.com/article2/0,2845,2340700,00.asp http://digg.com/pc_games/The_20_Best_Free_PC_Games_3 Edit: It might be good for whoever maintains GetContinuum.com to remove the paragraph on the "10th Anniversary" since it refers to 2007-2008 as upcoming.
