woo level 16...
I didn't like level 15 much :/ Personally level 34 (or 50) is my favorite. And I hope to get there one day x)

Funny that. Lvel 16 a,d 41 are my faves. Besides the almighty 50 of coarse.

Dimensions
I remember seeing this when we were having our somplex converssation about time, i really can't imagina another dimension.. it's like imagining another sense.. but it's still fun to try!

The criminal who was deported
I totally agree with Paranoia, I fing the whole inmigration stuff pretty stupid, but that's not the point here, i dont fully understand it, Kirk says that if he wants to live in another country he should stick to their laws, but that means to their punishments too, and I guess it would be the best to deport him if he had just moved to commit crime, but he practically wasnt an italian anymore..

favorite levels
I dont like much my actual icon, my favorite ones are 27, 44 and 54.. umm.. i need to deposit a lot.. well i just wish that rumor of choosing any icon who have unlocked is true so i can at least have a baseball bat.. Or I'll need to reach at least 24..
Sonx
He doesnt even answer my pms..

By that logic, you could deport everybody who commits a crime, regardless of country of origin

In all honest, if I could deport ALL criminals who commit violent crimes I would, wouldn't you? There's no place for those sort of thugs in our supposed "civilized" society.

(i.e. not being deported to somwhere he's not lived since he was playing with legos) than another guy just because he was born into a nice white British household, something's wrong with the law.

Firstly, skin colour has nothing do with it. Since our empire started in the 1600's and ended up covering 2/3 of the globe by Victorian times, saying "WHITES ONLY" would be more than just hypocritical. This is not about race. This is about those who choose to live outside of the law.

And I see what you're saying about letting him stay here because he has lived here for so long. However, the point I'm making is, should some one, who has murder an innocent man, be allowed to stay here? What about the rights of the victim's wife? etc...

At the end of the day we have to treat all criminals equally, regardless of whether they came from another country as a kid or not.

What about those who come here as adults and break the law? Should they be allowed to stay here?

If an adult, who should know the different between right and wrong, comes here, and commits a serious crime, what gives them the right to stay here?

Whether that means giving longer sentances or not isn't the issue, but we can't just go around looking for excuses to shift our problems over to other countries.

I'm not trying to pass the buck here. If you live on a country you abide that countries laws. If I broke the law while living in another country I would expect to be deported after my sentence.

The guy should be spending serious time in an English jail, rather than time in a jail where rehabilitation would be hampered by the fact he'd have to be learning the language from cons and prison guards.

He'd only be deported after his prison sentence here had ended. We can't deport people into Italian jails.

would be allowed to travel wherever he wants in the EU as befits any person in this Eurostate of ours.

Don't get me started on this European superstate. How has a trading agreement designed to help rebuild Europe after WW2 become an organisation that dictates how much fish our fishermen can catch within our own borders? The European Parliament is a joke. Political decisions should be taken at the lowest level possible. The EP is so far removed from the man on the street it is unreal. The EP is formed of just under 800 MEPs who make up laws that effect the 700+ million citizens of Europe. That is provided the 25+ member states can agree of course. The millions of pounds it costs to run the EP each year could be spent on more worthwhile things.

AW SHIT! NIG6A IS GACK IN TOWN!

Yesh, so I finished working at my interwebless summer camp about a week ago.

Since then, I have been watching anime, pirating music and porn, catching up on shit I missed, and hanging out with friends. Now comes the slow phasing back into the interwebs society of NG.

I bet you all missed my teenage angst, my flaming posts, and my foul language... for those like, 5 people who remember me.

Also, Luis, I turned 17 back in July, so one more year and ya can pop mah cherry :3

So, who wants to tell me what the fuck's up?

I'm watching the dimension video and so far i've gotten to the eighth dimension. The computer i'm on has a really slow internet and keeps buffering it. I mostly get it but it's pretty damn confusing

it was pretty neat. My little brother popped into my room while I was watching it and was like "what the heck are you watching?"

It was a rather funny and awkward situation. He always calls me a nerd (yet i don't deny it...), and yet he wants to be an engineer as an adult, which is one of the more nerdy jobs out there. He's rather odd if I do say so myself.

Anyway it makes you wonder, if the 10th dimension can be considered a point, then there could possibly be even more dimensions after that, however because we have no way of observing what lies in place in dimensions higher than 3/4 (we feel the effects of dimension 4 but can't observe it freely, just in a straight line).

If one universe can be described as a point in 10 dimensional space, then wouldn't it be possible for a simultaneous 2nd universe to exist as a different point in 10 dimensional space, where a line between the 2 becomes dimension number 11?

dimensions 5-10 are purely theoretical concepts with no definite proof of existence right now, therefore there could potentially be more spacial dimensions based on variables yet to be discovered or comprehended.

I spent a lot of time reading all of those paradoxes on wikipedia today cause i was bored and I tried to understand most of them. It really gets you thinking about things. Like all of the sudden you'll think of a theoretical situation which would be very interesting to observe.

For instance, imagine a universe consisting of a small chunk of mass and a beam of light moving away from that chunk of mass. If you let enough time pass, the light will eventually turn around and go back to the mass due to gravitational pull even though it would take a while, which would mean that the light would have to stop at a point in space as it turns around.

Also, as light can be effected by gravity, then it must therefore exert a gravitational force on other objects and beams of light.

Anyway thinking is fun.... but i think my brain is about to explode from all the logic and paradoxes it absorbed today, along with talking to delta about the physics engine and stuff.... i should go mush it up and play gears of war some more....

Anyway thinking is fun....

Yes it is. That's what I do mostly during school (although it mostly has nothing to do with the subject)

And as far as the video goes I think it was a fun thing to watch :3 I'll have to watch it again. I got most of it. And it really does make you think about everything.. Then again thinking about such things is also rather useless. I doubt we'll ever truly understand how the universe works.

A point in the 10th is all the possible branches to all the possible timelines for all the possible universes. 7 is everything in our universe, 8 is a line to another universe, 9 is to other universe alternatives, and 10 is to every possible universe.

the "quantum physics" thing at 5:22 is pretty messed up in my head i've reheard it but it's like all he's saying is blah blah dicks blah blah blah. Seriously I'm so glad i still have two more school years before university :)

That one of the probability waves or whatever of the 5th dimension. In reality your head didn't explode in all instances of the 5th dimension, just a small amount of them.

You guys are reminding me of a discussion I had in Math class last year... we also said that colors (like infrared and Ultraviolet) could have something to do with it, like we can only see or feel one or the other.

I'm back, btw.

Dimensions
Hurt my brain, yet the subject's rather thought-provoking. The video made little sense, yet also made perfect sense at the same time. I'm going to watch it again; at present time, it's sadly more captivating than a funny video clip.

I agree with that one guy up there, get a life.

Re: Madness Day

I think Tom wants to make this Madness day as big as possible. I am somewhat of a madness fan so I have no complaints. I agree though, I think everyone is gonna make some form of madness submission for it. Not as much as Clock Day but either way it's good.

Even I'm whip'n somethin' up for Madness Day. Though I like the Tricky Madness style of toon apposed to the regular madness combat episodes. I also like seeing faces on the lil' guys now too. Like in Krinkel's last 4 shorts.

Next NG Meetup : Toronto

Yeah I'm already contemplating the next one.... I think Toronto sounds good. Was talking to NegativeOne earlier.. that seems reasonable.

I'm thinking November.

The montreal meetup last year was pretty fun... anytime you wake up the next day in womens makeup it was a wild night...

Toronto Meetup

That would be pretty awesome, and easy to get to. Unfortunately November is 1 month before I'm the legal age to do whatever I'd like, but it'd still be nice to attend a meet-up.

Whatever happened with the NY meet-up? Or was that swapped out for the UK meet-up?

Toronto Meet-Up

Hmm, 7 hour flight from Vancouver to Toronto only $300 for myself. I may be able to make it if I leave durring the last week of October. But then agian I got school this year...

I am probably not going to make a Madness flick, but I'm looking forward to that day. It should be a lot of fun.

Hmm i forgot about that madness day :( May have the time for something :P And what is all about those meetings? Im relatively new so... is someone could explain what's its meant to, and who can join?

Welcome to the Regs Lounge. Least, I've not seen you post in here before

Luis, travelling nomad he is, is currently on what seems to be a world tour, and for some reason none of us are capable of meeting up on our own if he's not involved - we've been discussing the UK one for about two years now. The last one (methinks) was at San Diego which coincided with him going to Comic Con. Next meet's taking place in London as he completes his tour of the Eurosphere, and as stated above the one after that's probably going to be in Toronto.

I don't think there's any restrictions on people going. Although having people know (generally) who you are will certainly help, seeing as the meetups we describe here are generally for the people who hang about on this forum for a disturbingly long time (the so called Flash Forum Regs...)

I was just going to ask the same thing. Did it ever happen?
