This is deeply worrying, we're all turning into the people who were leading the Worms community when we were the newbies. I remember those dark times on the Wormtopia message board, back in 2001. I was struggling to break into the Worms Community, and there were all these people saying that it was dead or dying, and effectively telling me not to bother. It was very dispiriting for me, I can tell you.

But history seems to be repeating itself. And now even Worm Mad is turning into a Grumpy Old Man.

Surely only Nutter can save us now...

I was never a newbie in the community, as the first 6 or so months I played, I played with a very select amount of people and posted on a private forum, and by the time I started joining places like CL2K I was sane and stuff.
SaneISH anyway.

That would be better if it rhymed in all the right places.

Yeah, but I only did it for a bit of a laugh so I couldn't really be bothered.

And now even Worm Mad is turning into a Grumpy Old Man.

Oh, it was only a joke, Paul. Lighten up. I love those little tykes really. Ho ho ho, I wonder what mischief they'll get into next!

The Worms Community has its annual yay-ermmm-noooo-dead-yay-etc cycles but the spirit of a wormer never dies.

here we get Cartoon Network replaced by TCM (some classic movie channel) at 8/9pm and put back at 6am, thus i can never watch anime and such that they show, all i can see is loads and loads of reruns (seriously, i think i know by memory the script of every single cartoon episode i watch)!!! :mad:

What's wrong with it really?
The animations are nice and smooth, and I like the character design
The story is quite interesting also, it has hilarious moments and the voices(at least in the spanish version) are quite well done(they fit the characters perfectly)
It has flaws indeed, like a kindof repetitive story and some lines barely make any sense(altough this might be lost in translation), but generally, it's quite entertaining, and certainly better than most of the stuff they show here

I agree with what you said completely, and I've tried numerous times to get him to watch an episode of it -- but apparently it's because a couple of girls who sat close to him in his old class were ALWAYS jabbering about InuYasha that he became automatically sick of it and refuses to go anywhere near it.

I'll wear down h is resistance one of these days. I eventually got him to play GunBound and he loved it -- from there, the sky's the limit. :p

D:I'd rather they make a good film that was different to the books in a few little ways than a bad film that was 100% faithful. After all, the books flatly contradict the TV series which flatly contradicts the radio series, so there's no particular reason the film should fit in with any of the above any more than it has to. As I recall there is at least one totally new character/situation added just for the film (which was originally concieved by Douglas Adams, don't worry).

Yeah, I know about the contradictions. And I'm okay with say, giving DeepThought arms. But "Marvin the depressed robot"? Come on. There's changing it slightly to make it better, and there's changing it to make it sound retarded and be less funny.

AndrewTaylor
24 Nov 2004, 18:39
I know what you mean, if you have a good line you may as well use it over a rather more banal one. Personally I think that using the phrase "paranoid android" more than once or twice in the film would be tacky anyway -- like when the voiceover monkey on the Weakest Link says "walk of shame" and it grates because he shouldn't be using that kind of phrase -- and they can do what they like on the trailers for all I care. I expect I'll end up making my final desicion about whether to watch the film at the cinema based on the Something Awful goons' response to it anyway.

I am writing a short story. This is what I have so far. What do you think?

EDIT: TEH FEINNNAL VEEERSN

Searching for Syrup

“Ehh, ehh, ehhhh! Ehh, ehh, ehhhh!” “We already know you are retarded, Reggie! You don’t have to show everyone, you b*st*rd!” Reggie looked at me with a stupid expression. Suddenly he started running around me while yelling: “Ehh, ehh, ehhh! P!ssflaps! Ehh, ehhh!” I picked up a stick from the ground. “You see this stick, Reggie? If you keep doing that, the doctor will have to dig far into your ar** to find it!”

Next day at the Hospital...

The doctor came to me. “Don’t worry Mr. Eggflap, your brother will be just fine. Now, I wonder how this stick got in there...”
When we finally got back home, my stupid brother Reggie said: “Look at me! I can dance on the cereal!” To which I replied: “Get back down you brain damaged hamster! You’ll fall and break your nose!” “No, I won’t!” he said before he fell and broke his nose.
When we got back home again after the second trip to hospital, I noticed one major flaw in the house. We were out of syrup! Reggie started crying, like he usually does. I, however, had more reasonable thoughts circuiting around in my head. I went outside to find a drop of mayonese, which I could use to track down a used chewing gum. I could then use the gum as a fake license to buy guns. Once I had a gun, I could split it open with a flannel and pour the syrup inside it into a box called Arnie. I knew I couldn’t let Reggie stay at home all by himself. He’d get rabies and start licking the refridgerator, and I wouldn’t want any of that, so I was forced to bring him with me.
Anyway, I then went into the basement for no apparent reason. It was so dark there that it was still pitch black when I turned the light switch on. At least until I changed the lightbulb. Reggie was getting nervous now. I knew what this meant, so I quickly hurled a bleeding Mexican at his ancle. If I hadn’t done that, the consequences would have been terrible.
I decided that I couldn’t delay this syrup hunt any further, so I went straight to action using a fork and two pennies to find that drop of mayonese. After I had searched for about an hour, and I thought all hope was lost, I found a bus driver. This was no ordinary bus driver, though. This particular bus driver was the only one in town with a big thumb. And we all know that big thumbs generate a lot of mayonese. I traded my fork and two pennies for a drop of mayonese. I put it on my shoulder and its built-in radar led me to a parking meter which had a used chewing gum to spare. At this point I was very exhausted, so Reggie and I went home to sleep.
Next morning I woke up and hit my brother in the face with a shovel. He answered by throwing a cheese sandwich at me. This offended me, and I could feel my spleen starting to burst. I was so angry now that my blood was literally boiling. I ran around in circles screaming because of the pain, then when I cooled down a bit, I took my fist and planted it in the middle of Reggie’s face. His nose broke again and we had to go to the hospital. Again.
Now that I had the chewing gum and Reggie was out of the way, I went to the local gun shop, Ammunation. I bought an M60 and was on my way home when a toenail fell from the sky and bestowed me with its blessings. This is one of those once-in-a-lifetime experiences, so I celebrated by eating Canada. Unfortunately, I choked on a grizzly bear and had to spit it out again. I started walking back home, disappointed. I was interrupted once again, this time by the King & Queen of Cheese. I was honoured, because they boiled an egg on my chin as a token of their gratitude. I was so flattered that my p!ss bag ruptured all over the King & Queen of Cheese as they left. I shouted at them: “Oi, you clarks!” and spit on their shoes. This made them very happy, and they teleported me back home, where I brought my flannel and cracked the M60 open and poured the syrup into a bowl.
My brother died a few days later because of ruptured nodules, and I smoked syrup for a few more years until I passed away because of intestinal diseases.

i don't know how, i don't know why, but bad old Microsoft still finds a way to **** me off on a regular basis.
take, for instance, SP2, which ****ed me to no end for its new fancy "Security Center" which kept yelling at me everytime i started my computer "Windows Firewall is turned off". Well of course it's turned off, i'm in a network, i don't need a firewall! And even if i told him that i didn't care about it, or that i would monitor it myself, it would reset its settings as soon as i restarted and yell at me again.

today, i bring you Automatic Updates.
it all seemed nice, updates being taken care of automatically, compared to the old system. but it's not as nice as told. because, first of all, if you let it get updates which need to restart, you will get very, very annoyed. when you get the "Updates need Windows to restart to work, bla bla bla" window you can select "Restart Now" and "Restart Later". no idea why you get to choose, really. obviously, the thing decides to update when i don't want to restart because i'm busy, so i choose "Restart Later". well the catch is, if you dont restart, you will keep on getting the same window smacked at you every 5 minutes, UNTIL YOU DECIDE TO RESTART! and of course if you're running some full-screen app (eg. a game) you can bet that the message will take you back to the desktop just so you can press once again "Restart Later".

anyways, it seems Microsoft didn't find this annoying enough. today the thing did some auto-update for who-knows-what, it seemed to be to "perfect" the Auto Update system. oh and it perfected it alright. so that now, besides having to choose between Now and Later, i only had 5 minutes to choose or else it would restart on its own.
needless to say, the message decided to annoy me during my calm RCT3 game. constantly and constantly! until once, i must've forgot to press "Restart Later" and left the window open. while i was calmly playing my nice RCT3 game, the computer suddenly started to slow down, constantly switching to the desktop. i found out that IT WAS RESTARTING!!! the blasted thing got its way and my computer was restarting, without me being able to stop it! my RCT3 game throwed away (because i didn't have time to save it) and my downloads all paused (luckily Opera supports pause/resume). RESTARTING, WITHOUT MY PERMISSION, AND INSTANTLY F***ING UP MY STUFF!

let me tell you, i don't know what goes through Bill Gates' mind, but i wish someone would put a hole in it. or in all of microsoft!

And I'm finally nearly finished the single player of UT2K4. Which I'm pleased about. Obviously.

Are you going to be like Zero from SA, who sends raids of RC toys against his rival in the RC business?

As for communication with friends, it is a lot easier to set up voice com via MSN or AOL than it is via radio. Unless your friends with whom you want to communicate live in the immediate vicinity, the only way to communicate to them via amature radio is by using the effect which causes the long wave transmissions to bounce off the ionoshphere and by such means "curve" over the horizon line. The conditions required for this are constantly changing, and you can rarely communicate with the same people two days in a row. With internet, as long as they have an IP address, you can talk to them.

Yay, we won! South Africa collapsed from 201-4 to 229 all out, with Simon Jones instrumental in getting rid of Jaques Kallis before cleaning up the tail. Then Strauss hit 94no to go with his 126 in the first innings.

SAF 1st Innings: 337ao (Dippenaar 110, Hoggard 3-56)
ENG 1st Innings: 425ao (Strauss 126, Ntini 3-75)
SAF 2nd Innings: 229ao (Kallis 61, S Jones 4-39)
ENG 2nd Innings: 145-3 (Strauss 94no, Ntini 1-24)

England win first test and lead series 1-0.

They've also set a personal best for England by winning eight tests on the trot (Mind you, the world record's sixteen, set by [of course] the Aussies).
Not understanding cricket jargon, that post seems bizarre. Let me get this straight:

South Africa had 201 points, lost four, somehow had 229 points and lost. Then Strauss used the number 126 to hit 94no. And 94no is a noun. Then the teams got a bunch of ao's, except england got -3's instead.

Right?

Right?South Africa had at one stage 201 runs for the loss of only four wickets, then collapsed to 229 runs for the loss of all ten.

"ao" means "all out (all ten wickets lost)"
"no" means "not out"
"-x" means "for x wickets"

Strauss scored 126 runs (and out) in England's first innings, and 94 (and not out) in the second.

For reference, here's the full scorecard (http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/shared/fds/hi/statistics/cricket/scorecards/2004/12/7344/html/scorecard.stm)

I think that once we've colonized other planets and solar systems, we should make Earth a natural preserve and not let anyone come here. Maybe this already happened, and we're the result of a few fugitives who hid on the planet and our steller cousins are elsewhere in space. Maybe these UFO citings are our ancestors observing our hidden civilization.

Funny how old games are easy to find pirated.

My Dad - a creator of Legacy of the Ancients and Legend of the Blacksilver - says both games have no bugs. He claims that when a copy of the game you download off the internet crashes - it's simply the copy protection he wrote doing its job. He talked about how he did it - remapping fonts - not putting the "blowup" function in with the "check copyright" function. The works. He's very proud.

The second test finished a draw, but it was end-to-end stuff. England got off to a terrible start by being bowled out for 139, and South Africa scored 332 in reply, with Kallis making 162. However in England's second innings they made 570-7 declared, with Trescothick and Strauss sharing an opening stand of 273 (Tresco 132, Strauss 136) before Graham Thorpe made a typically phlegmatic 118no, as partnerships with Flintoff (60) and Geraint Jones (73) set up a lead of 377. However, South Africa managed to bat out a draw, finishing on 290-8 as bad light saved them at the end.

I just watched a special on Area51. A former employee spoke about it. He said little, and he said nothing at all about aliens, just that it's a military air base and weapons testing facility thing.

And then one of the people who'd constructed a satellite image of the facility had his house searched by the FBI and several items confiscated.

And when they were spying on it from outside the fence, military aircraft flew overhead to monitor them.

Actually, 50 posts per page is better for slow connections.

With 30 posts you have to load a new page all the time, but with 50 you can read posts while the page is still loading.

I'm one of those irritating people who won't change a system if they feel the current one does an adequate job.

Hence my continued use of IE and WMP :rolleyes:

Oddly enough, I used the same reasoning to justify not using IE.

Oddly enough, IE can do that.

Ah, there's the difference then. My criteron for a web browser:

I want something that lets me browse the web without making me want to kill people.

Oddly enough, IE can do that.Mine is: I want something that lets me browse the web and does not get adware/spyware.

Oddly enough, IE is the only one that can't do that.

If you had the choice between, for free, driving a brand new, fast car with insurance, RAC on the road help, and all that jazz, or an uninsured 25 year old car, and both cost exactly the same, which would you choose?

Do not adjust your monitor. This is not a test. Nor is it a fake. This is actually from a site where I just found an interesting freeware game. I'll let everyone know if it turns out to be worthwhile. :p

That is a very tough decision. I'm going to have to think this over for a couple of hours.

Well... maybe when those silly Windows Update things come up...

I think it's a combination of me not minding popups (I'm quite happy just to swat them away: I've scored 299 on the Realistic Internet Simulator (http://www2.b3ta.com/realistic-internet-simulator/)) and just leading a charmed life (generally my computer can go without crashing for weeks).
