The Runar

I've only played Settlers 1 (very little of that however) and 2.

:o

Probably not. I've had my PS1 for over 10 years and I still think it's the best console there is. One reason is that the games seems to get easier and easier. I also hate too good graphics for some reason. My favorite graphics are simple, clear, and usually colorful too (at least compared to these kinds of games). And I usually get a headache from 3D effects :( The only current-gen console I have is DS, and I chose it because of the price and very good games (New Super Mario Bros, Final Fantasy remakes etc). I don't have plans to purchase any more consoles. Or maybe, if there will be a REALLY good one with REALLY good games, and fits in my budget... :)

The only problem with today's updates is that I cannot use any of them. :( Graphics: I'm using Linux, which doesn't support those. Strykewyrms: No skillz. Music: I always listen to good old 80s songs while on computer. Just my luck. :(

#include <iostream> using namespace std; class cat { private: int size; public: void set_size(int); int get_size(); }; void cat::set_size(int newsize) { size = newsize; } int cat::get_size() { return size; } int main() { cat Garfield; Garfield.set_size(20); cout << "The size of Garfield is: " << Garfield.get_size() << endl; return 0; }

Actually, I'm pretty sure that was an Halloween event from... 07, since I remember that place and I wasn't playing in 05... I could be wrong, but I think it was the event with the ghost gun or w/e... You had to shoot stuff at ghosts. It has the painting tables and marionette parts, and I'm pretty sure they weren't there in the Halloween '06 event.

Today my computer decided to surprise me. For some reason all the text in the console (/command line) is pink. :XD: Otherwise a pretty standard (and boring) day. Coffee > school > more coffee > RuneScape > even more coffee > more RuneScape > coffee again. :P

I found a small graphical glitch (look at the skirt)

This area may be used in Toktz-Ket-Dill, I haven't done the quest so I'm not sure... [hide][/hide]

Yeah, me too. By the time the rest of my C++ class can log in and start Visual Studio, I've already borrowed a book and made it through what's covered in the first half of the class. (Granted, the school's computers are slower than cryogenic molasses when it comes to that.) On the down side, that results in a lot of NetHack in class. I <3 NetHack. I also play it in school. I'm not too good at it though :(

Holy [cabbage] man you got Kalphite Queens in your SCHOOL?? AND YOU KILLED IT?!? I'd have them call an exterminator asap, if I were you. OT: Decided to go to the gym in the afternoon instead of the morning. Oh yea, man it was terrible.*wink* I guess I should clarify. I went to school, went home killed Kalphite Queen, went for a walk, played some basketball, then played Psychonauts. Yes, most of my day is playing games. The walk was to the basketball court, but I'll count it as an activity. Holy [cabbage] man you got Kalphite Queens in your HOME?? AND YOU KILLED IT?!? I'd have them call an exterminator asap, if I were you. (sorry I just had to do this :P )

I'm making a four in a row game with my friend. I just wrote the code for loading and showing the board, hopefully I can make the game playable this weekend. Because it's so simple it shouldn't be a problem though. After that we'll begin creating the fun stuff, some stuff we have planned include: AI opponents of varying difficulties Boards of different sizes Multiple tilesets to choose from Possibly some special moves EDIT: It works! :thumbsup: It's not pretty, but it doesn't matter right now :)

Aren't PHP and MySQL like the standards for both amateur and professional websites of any kind?

Here's a Python version of your C example program: def somefunction(): for i in range(1, 11): j = i + 1 if j/2 == i/2: print "i is even" else: print "i is odd" somefunction()

I know C/C++, Python, HTML, CSS, and some JavaScript and PHP. I'm going to do a little game project with one of my friends. It will be a basic four in a row game with some more or less funny twists. :) I do the coding and he does the graphics and music. I'm one of the few programmers who doesn't use an IDE. I use emacs for writing the code, awesome thing once you learn the extremely complex commands - for example quit is Ctrl-X Ctrl-C. However it supports pretty much any programming language in existance, has a ton of features (it's more like an operating system than an application - you can for example chat on IRC with it) and even more with plugins.

I made a Twitter account for some reason. Someone had already taken the username Tiigon (how is that possible? it doesn't even mean anything!), so I chose another name *points to sig*

They have several different names, such as virtual desktops (the most common one) and workspaces. piesofdoom already said some apps. I've also found them very useful (I'm a Linux user myself), once you get used to them you can't stop :P

Haven't used it since I installed Arch Linux (3 months ago), let's reinstall :) Tiigon is in 57174th place. Tiigon has been a participant since 2009-06-25 (7 months ago), and in that time has typed 946,831 keys, clicked 393,723 times and moved his or her mouse for 9.36 miles. Averaging 0.05 keys and 0.02 clicks per second. This user last sent a pulse to this server on 2009-10-31 19:19:30 and has sent a total of 86 pulses overall. Tiigon lives in Finland. Tiigon also referred 0 users to WhatPulse.

Almost everyone probably knows the "Tetris effect"... well now I'm getting a "Bejeweled effect". Everytime I see colorful things in a grid I try to figure out a way to get three or more in a row. :lol:

I just reinstalled Arch Linux. It took a bit of tweaking to save my files as I don't have an external hard drive or anything to put them on, but I did it with some clever partitioning. Now my computer is extremely fast :thumbsup: And I said goodbye to Windows at the same time :)

A game designer. My studies (which will be about both games and computer animations) will begin this year, if my application will be successful. Hopefully it is, I'm pretty sure there will be a ton of applications for that and only 15 are accepted. Luckily I've always been very good at school and have some experience about game programming already, so it shouldn't be a problem for me. :)

Got the graphics tablet I ordered last week and after a bit a tweaking I got it working in Arch Linux (there are no official Linux drivers <_< ). It doesn't work in Linux as well as in Windows (the config program on Linux sucks) but it still does its job very well. I quickly drew a font with it. I tried to make it look like my handwriting, but with no success. I probably have to scan my handwriting and make the font manually from it :( (BTW one of my cats liked the box it was in. That cat goes into every single box it sees, even if the box is so small that only two of its paws fit in :D )

Well the game isn't made by Jagex. Still, I can't understand why Jagex even released someone else's game - if they make their own tools for everything, why don't they make all their games too?

I was the first one to get a topic locked on the forums :twss: I created an "Introduce yourself" thread a few seconds after some other guy and and there's no need for duplicates, mine was locked. I guess it's an achievement too :XD:

Time for Ctrl+R then :)
