Golly gee Cybex, I hope that is sarcasm.

Its actually not. Would someone mind informing me of the words I spelt wrong? I haven't been in the situation where I have to write more than a sentence for 2 and a half years.

lol then u should re-read your paragraph. i could point out 20 mistakes in there.

school
It's pretty much the same way in every school in france. when I studied in Israel, no one gave a shit about my folders. I could write as messy as I wanted, and draw stuff everywhere I wanted. I guess it's just another shitty french thing, hopefully I'll go to a university in some other country

He means use a spellchecker instead of learning to spell. I think? I'm not sure I'm just guessing since I scanned through and couldn't spot any at a glance.

Stating the obvious?

If this was 2 years ago, I would totally pwn you all at spelling and punctuation. Anyway, I've traded in my writing skills for my maths skills so I don't care.

Yea he was just using a simple realistic tool to undercut the validity of your metaphor. But you wouldn't write a book without having a strong understanding of grammar, and paragraph structure, and character building and plot mechanics, so you wouldn't make a game without understanding basic programming structure.

First Flash Game Sponsership

I just made my first decent amount of money in flash. 400 USD. Man it feels good. It has really motivated me to start making flash again after a fortnight of inactivity. Wow I never imagined flash could bring in this amount of money for me back when i started using it (04). What were you guys like when you got your first sponsership money? What did you buy?

Looking for coder/partner

some of you might remember a few months back i posted about a game i started to make on my own. I promised i would have it finished soon but unfortunately, my job and school took a lot more time out of my life than i hoped. I really want to finish this so it doesn't go to waste but I don't have the time I used to to figure out the coding on my own. so now im looking for a coder to work with me to finish it. The code i already wrote is probably incredibly inefficient and amateurish so whoever offers to code can start from scratch if you really want to. PM me if you're interested.

Watch it or I'll keel you! Congratulations on making a good amount of money in Flash, I've never even finished a proper game :D The most I've made was making an Aim icon for Armor Games, the guy (I think his name is Dan?) gave me $50.. £25, not bad for less than 20 minutes work!

Don't pick Toast! He'll generate hundreds of French female physics teachers being impaled repeatedly! Then again that could be fairly amusing....

SERIOUSLY? NO BACON? HOW CAN U HAVE A BREAKFAST WITHOUT BACON.

today i learned that breakfast is called breakfast because when you sleep you can consider it as Fasting, and when u wake up your break that fast, aka breakfast.

Out of interest, whats the most people here have been sponsored? My most is $700 for the tut collab, but i got very little of that. Anyone gone above $2000?

The only wedding I've properly enjoyed is a russian wedding I went to (lots and lots of vodka!!!). The other weddings haven't been that fun for me.

Response to The Flash 'Reg' Lounge 2008-09-15 18:44:18


i was just joking about your spelling btw, i didn't spot any mistakes. yes it's true you were much better than me 2 years ago, because back then I didn't know shit about english. but over the years, after communicating with people 8000 times on the bbs, you kinda get the hang of it. although I did realise that there were many words I was sure I spelled right but I only found out I didn't when i used firefox spellchecker.

good night folks, gotta try to sleep more than 4 hours today cause i have a long 9 hours day at school yet again. I ran out of things to rant about, but I'm sure I'll find something for tomorrow. Thus the setInterval(toastrant(),24h??) continues, and let us hope no one will ever dare to clearInterval my rants

Wedding

I went to my first wedding a couple weeks ago. I didn't have very high expectations because it was for my girlfriends cousin whom I had never met...so it was kind of awkward to begin with. BUT, it was actually an amazingly fun time. The area was beautiful, the people were all happy and nice, and there was great food.

...not to mention all the free champagne.

A programmer and I were offered 1500$ once. We turned it down.

FUCK
So I pulled my hamstring and I have been in pain for the past almost 4 weeks. If anyone else doesn't know how that feels, it's like you MUST limp everywhere and its hard to get up and sit down. I've wanted to play tennis in my grade 12 year and get into OFSAA (provincial level tournaments). Practiced all summer and now I can't play till Spring in which I'll only have a chance in ONE tournament, and if I screw that up it's done.

FUCK. Tmo I get to tell my coach i can't play till next season >.>

Response to The Flash 'Reg' Lounge 2008-09-15 21:49:17


FUCK

Oh damn, that's painful stuff right there. To bad about the tennis to.

I've had bad experiences with pulled hamstrings...
