Like an RTS game. You'll learn something about programming, and I'll be able to participate in making games for Newgrounds.

Hmm, that sounds doable. A bit larger than what I had in mind but RTS's are always fun.

You probably already said it and I missed it, but why don't you just pick up an artist like luis or mindchamber or someone to that effect and make something epic like Portal Defenders and NG Rumble? Why would you take a tertiary position?

Also, I think a platformer that competes with FPA is in order. Would be interesting to see how that would end up.

Anyone else trying to get a Darkfall account?
What a pisstake. They are so bad at the business front.

I don't feel like pulling a game by myself. Mostly lazy, and I've got other programming-related interests to take my time with.
I've actually got a programming language in mind which I'm about ready to implement, which should help with my unwillingness to do manual programming.

We could do that. Luca is slowly working on his Tau'ri sequel which should be quite awesome if he keeps at it, but that'll take forever.

No. I'm a pansy carebear who's not hardcore enough for Darkfall. That and I've already annoyed my buddy in Goonswarm by not deciding to continue playing EVE, so I'm staying off MMOs for a while.

If you say Flash is more suitable for the incompetents we see around here then you'd have a point, but I think that the web scene is getting more organized (as in teams) so it's not at all impossible for games like that to become common.

Flash is easy to use, which is why there's so much of it everywhere. If Unity gets more popular I can definitely see some big games (similar to Quake Live) but for general game development I can't see it ever overcoming flash. Maybe if Adobe bought it and marketed it a lot.. it could happen, but I doubt it.

It's a great idea, if we all pulled together and made a game it would be absolutely fantastic and net us all cash and fame. Too lazy though, and personally I have too much uni work to be ignoring already.

GRAD QUOTES

Its come to the point of my Grade 12 year that the teachers are demanding grad quotes.

Aka: I'm not one to talk about the future and gay things like that, so i need the funniest grad quote you can think of delivered to me on a comedians head.... or just a funny grad quote in general.

Haha, i really can't understand why people would choose PVE over PVP. It's probably weird that i love killing people online. :P

Home at home

So I'm goin' to be spendin' roughly 4 - 5 grand on turnin' my moms garage into a small lil' home for myself. Bedroom, living room, kitchen, and even a bathroom. It's fully possible and I'd only be payin' $400 a month for it so it's a lot cheaper then most places in my parts. So by sometime after next summer I'll be moved out of my room and into the garage. lol A home right next to my old home. Haha.
It's goin' to be nice havin' my own mini-place to pimp out and have to myself for parties and work. It'll make a great place to film junk too.

Well, remember -- you're paying to renovate it. If you move into another home, you won't have to do that bullshit. Also, you'll be living in a garage... not even an actual nice home. I wouldn't even want to be near my parents either -- It seems a bit junkie if you ask me, but whatever floats your boat.

Your parents are making you pay to renovate their garage AND then charging you rent? What a shaft.

The Turd of the Week....

Mom does nothing with the garage. Plus part of the house goes into my name. I'm getting my fathers inheritance this month and I plan on investing 4-5 grand into real estate. I'm actually quite fine living near my mother as I'm quite close with her and don't mind her too much most of the time. Besides I don't plan on living there forever. :P
It'll be nice. A place to myself. It solves my problem of figurein' out where I'm goin' to be livin' the next few handful of years. The inheritance solves my money problems. Now all I need to worry about is findin' a decent job. I'm goin' to be takin' a sysmester of University to go job hunting. Also maybe throw in a even more effort into The Duders to see if that can start generating some profite for me.

And to avoid seeing the word "parents" again... My father has sadly passed and I only got my mother.

He's still your dad and they're both still your parents. Don't let his passing mar his title :). My sympathies for your loss.

Aww... as Greg-Brady-bedroom-in-the-attic-ly awesome as that sounds... isn't it kind of a waste of money? Why not put it towards fixing up the actual house? (I don't know how things work in Chilliwack, but here we get a tax break on that kind of stuff.) Or better yet, get a trailer home. That way you can hitch it to your wagon and take it with you later on.

Well part of the deal is if I ever move out I can ask my mom for the 4 - 5 grand I spend on it. So when I do eventually move out of it one day I can get my money back and start all over again, but with an actual house... or trialer.

Trailers rock. :3

Sorry, after I posted I realised it was a bit not what you wanted. Oh well.

A serious suggestion:
Winston Churchill at some meeting place in another country. The head of some department really didn't like him, and when she brought him a cup of tea, she said "If I was your wife, I would have poisoned that". Then, Churchill said "My dear, if I was your husband, I would drink it."

That's only from my memory but there probably a full version of what he said somewhere on the intertubes.

He wasn't in another country, he was talking to Nancy Astor, the first women MP. But yeah that was the sort of thing he came out with all the time. Someone once said to him "Sir, you are drunk", to which he replied "And you, madam, are ugly. But in the morning, I shall be sober".

Not content to being one of the greatest leaders we've ever had, he was probably the funniest too.
