I injected spam into it, it bloated up and died.

Just like Jack Thompson.

But you're Jack Thompson!

God.
Damn.
Spam.

Oh!
Antaeus Rising!
I've always wanted to play that! I've heard its like Urban Assault, but good! Except its single player only. But,

woooaaaah

All you fucking gamers better stop copying me.

Jack Thompson is the master chief. I am the master chief.

Favorite character design by far is Gish.

Gish!!!

Also, Gordon Freeman is cool. He takes second place.

Worst character I've ever seen was the newfangled vectorman from the never released ps2 vectorman, years ago.

I am Jack Thompson.

Hmm.

I just opened this thread for the first time today.

Got to page three.

People were talking about Airship 2600, the greatest game of all time.

Jumped to page 14.


This thread has deteriorated into insanity, somehow.

It appears that airship 2600 has reality altering properties. People who gaze upon it for too long go insane.

Like cthulhu.

I've heard the name before but I've never seen any media on the game.  Kinda looks like Second Sight, which I enjoyed.

Are the ads terribly annoying?

Probably not. Usually when commercial games go freeware it'll show you an ad after you quit the game, which doesn't really bother me much.

And if you hold psi ops and second sight up to the same light and try to compare them, you'll see second sight as complete junk. I made the mistake of playing psi ops first, the way second sight played felt watered down and the telekinesis was awkward in comparison. Psi ops is a helluva lot more violent, though, so if that would turn you off you might not want to get it.

Don't roll your intercon eyes at me! I'm using firefox 3, just like all the other indie nonconformist indie people on this site.

I will say good day to you, sir. 

This might be old news, I haven't been keeping up with the gaming news lately, but psi ops is apparently free now. Just checked out fileplanet and saw the download under the free games page. Looks like its ad supported, but still, awesome.

This was one of my favorite games and to this day its the only game I've ever played where "ragdoll physics" actually entertained me and added something to the experience.

Definitely one of the best sleeper hits that's come up in a long while.

The game itself is a third person shooter in which the protagonist has the typical magic jediesque powers, telekenisis, pyrokenesis, mind control, etcetera.
Snag it if your interested.

I finally bought a working computer! Which means I'll be able to participate in the tig game nights and all that indie stuff.

It's a used laptop, cost me 650 dollars. A bargain, I searched around online and this particular type is selling from eight hundred to a thousand dollars. Guy I bought it from botched windows somehow, he didn't tell me that. Windows was unstable, wouldn't boot up.

Luckily, with about ten minutes alone, using skills I learned deep in the forest, I managed to restore it to factory condition.

I bet the stupid knob is giggling with the joy of a schoolgirl, thinking he just pulled one over on me.

Little does he know he could have easily fixed the thing himself. Nobody swindles Smithy.

Anyway...

I came here excited today, thinking there'd be a post about game night, and there doesn't appear to be one.

Which is just as well because I'm probably not going to be around this Saturday.

But still... Nifty.

Damnit, it just occurred to me that I could have talked the guy down and got a better deal. Ah well. Next time.

"Abraham Lincoln?"
"Ben, your mind has been transported back in time... and to Mars. But that doesn't matter now. What matters is that you believe in yourself!"

NEVER!!!!!!

antivirus on the public computer I'm on just quarantined "bloodhound.exe" when I entered the forums, just now.

Last week monday I think he was following me around. I was wandering around the grounds, and walked to the bookstore for my break. Had to walk around the front of the building and through an orchard to get there, was fairly exposed.

When I entered the bookstore, I sat in the lobby, which is hidden away in an alcove beside the doors.

Thirty seconds later the guy bolted through the doors and towards the back of the store. I was shocked for a little while to see him again, slipped out the doors as they were closing behind him. My partner was with me, when he asked why I left I told him about the big guy in the blue bandanna. "Holy shit! I saw that guy! He's huge!" said my partner.

I saw the guy again today, putzing around the nursing building. I know he saw me this time, he made a beeline towards me. Casual pace, but still kind of freaky that he was there, and that he acknowledged me, considering he isn't a student.

I turned and made my way around the building, then entered one of the side doors and made my way here, to the lab. He's probably still looking around the nursing building now. Like a dog that chases low flying birds.

Oh and by the way topic starter qubodup, if thats even your real "name", our spam bot doesn't suck. Smithy is the best spambot this world has ever seen, and I'm not just going to sit here in my computer chair while you're going around starting insulting topics about him.

He isn't really doing his job though. That damn slacker.

Was secretly out this week fighting justice with Tamer.

Hello and greetings from humble farmerman!

To make simple: I has live in country USA many year now and seek things to burn for firewood that I do not afford! My friend and goat Yalig need keep warm for sickness.

Is there any good books for burning that you has know of?

Focus. Best yodel rock there ever was.

Also, I find the stop making sense talking heads concert video is pretty addictive:

You still alive over there Smithy? Or should we be watching the news for stabbing reports?

 

The guy looked about 40, was really twitchy, and huge.

Also key words.

But I think you're right, the guy was a bluffer.

Here's the situation:

I got a job working at the local tech college. Landscaping. Picking weeds and sometimes shoveling dirt around. Nothing much.

I've been partnered up with a rich wannabe gangster kid from the suburbs.

He leaves whenever there's any sort of shoveling work to be done, and his wannabe gangster attitude was really wearing me thin all day.

He left early today. I took my break.

Went into the computer lab for my break.

Now, I like to sit in places where nobody can read over my shoulder. I don't know why. Just the way I am.

And I noticed that there was one wannabe gangster guy, blue bandanna over his head and everything, sitting in the lab. Everyone else was crowded very far back from this guy, glancing over at him from time to time. I should have taken that as a warning.

But I didn't.

I realized that there was a biiiiiiig open space next to this wannabe gangster, and I chose to sit at the computer directly across from him, facing him, a foot from him. Cozy little place, nobody around, nobody to look over my shoulder. I posted on tigsource, started writing a story, was just settling in when the wannabe gangster man, looking at his myspace page, turns his head and shouts across the lab.

"You better not talk to me like that again, boy. I'm gonna kill you."

Well shit. That freaked me out a little. I looked over in the direction he was speaking. There were (edit: only three people in that part of the lab,) one couple and one black guy a few seats away from him.

As time went on, he continued making these threats. I was getting a little angry. Frustrated. Pissed off at the jerk.

"Oh shut up!" I yelled.

Everyone looked over at me.

"Jeezus christ, this is pathetic," I added. (For good measure.)

Now, [the couple that were sitting] on the side of the lab that he was yelling at leaves, leaving only the black guy. So that narrows it down. I figure that's the guy he's yelling at.

And the guy did in fact shut up for a little while.

Then, he looks over again, and says, "you better not talk to me like that, boy. I got connections. We're gonna kill you."

Same tired tripe that he was spouting the entire time.

Fucking wannabe gangster, I think. I look over at the guy I think he's yelling at, and he isn't reacting. Just letting it go like dew off a ducks back. He's cool about it. He figures it's not a threat.

So I stand up after a minute..

Look down over this guy. Cast my glare over this guy. Stand tall over this guy. Just for a minute, amused.

And I don't say anything.

I just give him one of these things: "pfft."


And I walk away.


Later on, the cops come and usher the guy out of the lab.

I continued wandering around the grounds, picking weeds.

I see the black guy, the guy he was yelling at. I stop him and ask, "hey, what did you say to that jerk to piss him off so badly."


He says, "me? I didn't say anything. I thought he was talking to you."

Well, shit.

Looking back at it, I realize this wannabe gangster was talking to the couple. The couple that left when I stood up to him.

All threats afterward were directed at me.

And I was wearing my gardening hat. Took off my gardening gloves in the lab. Advertised the fact that I'm a gardener there.

Also, I realized that this wannabe gangsterboy was a helluva lot bigger than me.
Haha, well, shit.

My only regret was that there wasn't a pretty girl around to see me bullying the asshole.

The guy looked about 40, was really twitchy, and huge. When I was a logger, I probably could take him in a fair fight. As it stands right now, I've been a landscaper for the past couple months, and my muscle has atrophied a bit.

Ack.

"I'm connected." What the hell does that even mean? It's so hokey. Stupid wannabe gangster guy. Delusional nutjob.

If I stop posting here, then I've probably been stabbed.
