Voting habits

I just vote on frontpage stuff really, but have started going to the portal a little. I remember this did come up before, because Cybex is a little bum who votes on his own stuff.

Year eleven ball

What kinda pussy goes to there year 11 ball.. Fat girls. The plan for mine, was to get in, sneak my friend in who'd been kicked out of the school, then just get really drunk.. and punch a teacher or something.

Why is your year 11 ball now surely it should be at th end of the year when you finish.

Doesn't it annoy you when people call them 'proms'? That's the kinda thing all the girls do. I heard some girl call Secondary school 'High school' the other day. That was slightly shocking.

The name is "Pixel Puncher" and you punch the crap out of stuff! The script and storyline is really big, so I'm planning to launch the first level as "episode 1" and update it with additional levels over time. I just have to be sure I don't fall into my regular pattern of releasing one level and never going back. I have all the levels planned out, though, and I just HAVE to make them all.

Seriously? I hate the way everything's getting americanised!

All ready to go, my mates should be here in 15 mins.

Is that your first post in this thread? Out of interest. Anyway, the game looks sweet, can you give us any more pics/ descriptions.

RE: Wotcha workin on
I'm working on a turret like game, it's not complex, but it's taking me a hell of along time for some reason :P.

Like some kind of demon! :P

I'll try and dig up some pics from our leavers prom before summer. A mate decided that we should try to turn the dance floor into a big mosh pit. It didn't work out too well, but randomly running and screaming at things is still fun.

Also, I was voted most likely to be next PM in a landslide :P I just rule that much.

Proms and High Schools

I don't find it weird at all. I spent four years in high school and there were two proms, I went to neither though. Regardless, I guess its an American thing thats rubbing off on you foreigners through the beauty of globalization (which apparently isn't in spell check's dictionary).

Re: Tom Posting Here

That was a bit shocking. Made me wish I had posted something profound or meaningful in the recent past. I feel that at least in some small way Tom has helped shape the lives of hundreds of flash artists over the years. Though, Newgrounds introduced me to flash around six years ago I was not one the fortunate few who can say that it lead me to produce any great animations. That all ties back to the old discussion about everyones origins in flash.

Nullity

Considering Mathematics is a concept entirely within the realm of the human mind, it's not too much to ask for that our own imaginary regimes can be changed to make it's own brand of impossible possible.

Whether it correlates with real life is a problem all in itself.

Side note... If any number divided by itself is one, what is zero over zero?

0 / 0 should be equal to 0 * 0 ^ -1... I dunno, all of this zero stuff confuses me. It could be equal to one, since you're basically multiplying by its reciprocal. On the other hand, it could be a theoretical number covering positive through negative infinity...

Meh.

Oops

Nullity

Depends on the problem, L'Hopital's theorem can sometimes help.

I know you know, I just like to be smart >_<

sounds lieka fun game, but when you say, add levels, is that dynamicly laoding levels from an outside dictionary < which could possibley mean endless amonts of levels + user submitted levels> or just, a new swf on the portal every so often..

speaking of games, the game i'm currently working on has 4 of the 5 <or 6> levels completed, which is great :). especially that i am crap at As and the current AS i have is a very crapy cheap way of doing such. its great :P

RE: Balls!
my end of shcool ball was pretty good i guess, wish i hand't wasted money on a tux thingy. oh well, at least i was there :P

Snow?

its winter, and up here in scotland we still haven't had any snow, how about the rest of you?

Haha, I managed to find a pic from my leavers ball. It's from a larger group photo, but I've cropped it to protect the innocent.

Anyway, this is me, circa late May 2005:

Re: Picture of Kirk

You look so British. Its a damn shame.

L'Hopital's Theorem
I failed A-Level Maths. I can barely handle trignometry on a good day.
So my maths is limited to what I learned from GCSE and what I actually picked up during math class (and even then, my algorithms from discrete are rusted over as well).

So I have no idea how that kind of thing works.

Haha, that's a good thing! Anyway, I probably look more "American" nowadays, as my hair's now shoulder length.

And that line, right there proves Luis' point that Tom is, in fact.... one of us..

Inspiration

Tom, since I'm sure you're well aware that many of the people here idolize you and use you as a source of inspiration.... the question needed to be asked who and what inspires you. What keeps you pushing on when you're in a slump?

(This question is open to others as well)

My personal inspiration is feedback and progress. If things drag for too long, I'm done for. I need to see progress in order to be inspired, and I need to be inspired in order to produce..

RE: How good are you?

As an artist and animator I'm about as good as anyone else with little actual skill but about a year of practice. I'm a better scripter than animator, but I wouldn't consider my scripting to be above an intermediate level. I like to think that I make up for it with the creativity and perfectionism to slot everything together nicely :)

RE: How Good Are You?

I consider myself a little higher than a complete noob. I put effort into even my early flashes, I try, I dont just make sticks or sprites and make them walk into a hole or something. Im making a movie now, which I think will score around 3.10 or something, asd its really the best I can do, I havnt even got a tablet. Anyways, I rate myself 3.5/10

Re: How good are you?

Hmm, I can draw ok, I can animate (fairly slowly), and I hope its not too big-headed to say my scripting is very advanced. Lots of creativity and imagination, and the ability to actually finish games brings my score up to a fair 7/10 - thats 6 years of flash experience for you!

I'm lucky in that I have Dim living in the same house to make up for the areas I lack in, ie art and animation. :)

RE: Kirk's picture

did anyone else notice the odd similarities between Kirk and Tom Fulp?

RE: how awesome are you?

i'd say i'm average, not amazing at either animation, i woulnd't even say good at scripting :P

i understand the basics of aniamtion and such but i just dont have the time nor ability to draw/aniamte as i think i could.

hopefully next year i'll do a coruse in animation at uni or something.... who knows :P

people seem to think i'm better at flash than i do... strange :P

RE: How good are you?

well...i don't want to sound all egotistical, but, whatever.

i'm a good drawer (both traditional and digital), a good animator, coder, decent web designer, good 3d animator, sort of good 3d modeler (though comparing me to orb would be insane. i just use swift and just little mini-movies and tests)....i guess that's all :P

i'd rate myself...i dunno, like 7.8/10

Re: How good are you?

Lol, he's at his friends house playing a Wii (it just came out here, but lets not start THAT topic again)

I'm staying up all night tonight to get my game done, I'll post screenshots as I go. Pretty much just needs sounds and music and its good to go!
