Anyway do you guys ever discuss anything on this thread aside from how good it used to be? Quit living in the past...

Hear, hear! Let's talk about how good it's going to be, like when we all have nanobots in our fingers to anticipate our psychic impulses and type for us before we even think ...

Haven't been around these parts in almost a year, so I'm a little out of touch with all this...

Hmm...an unfortunate miscommunication, from the looks of it. Johloh sent me his last draft a donkey's age ago, and when I replied voicing a lot of objections I had to elements of it, he didn't respond ...

...but the very next day, I gave it away.

Sure. Pick the texture you want, fill a whole layer with it, and make a bump map of your main layer using that layer. If you can't figure it out after messing with this for half an hour, pm me.

4 x 4 x 4 = four rows, four columns, four levels. Three dimensions. Normal tic tac toe is 3 x 3, but 3 x 3 x 3 tic tac toe wouldn't work because if you take the centre cube off the start you will always win. So you have to make it 4. Of course, this ...

If JBR were alive today, she'd be Rev's age. Let's all take a minute to feel old.

Ding ding ding! 100 points.

At least we don't eat raw polar bears.

Someone suggested this waaay back. 3-d tic tac toe is great - 4 x 4 x 4 - and I would love to play this map if someone makes it, but the trouble with these maps is making it clear to players which territories connect to which.

...or make the 25 a single territory, and the 50 a divided territory (3 or 4 or even 2, or even one, but I think divided would be better) with a bonus of 3 for holding all territories that make up the 50 and -2 for the undivided 25 - so that the bullseye is easy to hold if you take the 25 (only one ...

Where'd you get it? I got mine from Santa, round about last Christmas.

I like the idea of unprecedented territory numbers and unprecedented bonuses because they're, well, unprecedented. Master Bush, do you have some specific map in mind to put this idea into action? I'm not sure Alaska would be best for it, if that's the intent.

I dug this idea when some guy suggested it in June, and I still dig it now. My comments remain the same:


People will probably hate your idea - there's a bit of resistance to maps that aren't instantly comprehensible, like the crossword map (which I reiterate is genius) - but that doesn't mean it ...

For the record, I do consider abortion the ending of a human life, and the morning after pill likewise - I just don't find it useful to orient a debate on that question, as it ultimately comes down to what you consider a human life - Spuzzell's definition or jay_a2j's. And the dialogue never seems ...

I really think the whole question is symptomatic of the larger problem. The fact that society is organized in a way that any young couple is likely to find a pregnancy a huge burden is really pretty crazy if you think about it. I think we're just so used and attached to the underlying principles ...

What's wrong with a good severed head? You must be one of those brutes who chased Vesalius out of Padua. Clinging to taboos against dissection is just as prudish.

The consequences being that you have a 0.01% chance of pregnancy (with contraceptives that is). I mean by your argument, you should never fly unless you're willing to accept crashing etc.

I don't think you should fly if you're not willing to accept the possibility of crashing. I don't really see ...

Thanks for the story, Truman!

I understand your pain, 2dimes. After all, your guilty feet have got no rhythm, so it's perhaps for the best that you're not dancing in that condition. But I understand there's some sort of insect parasite that when inserted, Wrath-of-Khan-like, into your brain, will go a bang-bang-bang till your ...

new spain in either language doesn't work because of arizona and texas, unless the timeframe was set to back before the louisiana purchase, in which case many of the states could be renamed northern mexico.

Before Mexican independence in 1821 - when they became part of Mexico - Arizona and Texas ...

I think his birth name was Whatshisface McOtherguy, but he had it changed to Andrew Ridgeley for some odd reason.

I think you're thinking of Andy Taylor, the guitarist for Duran Duran who was in a side project called Power Station that blipped a bit when their drummer (Tony Thompson) almost killed ...
