You have to pretend to be the pajamasChild bed-time-evasion game? You have to disgust the sexy teacher... but... why? You have to pirate the dataA game about pirating games. It must only be released on BitTorrent after someone nicks it off the developer's hard drive. You have to usher in the glorious age of the meth addict You have to pick the FirefoxI've already played that game. You have to deconstruct the movieI think I've played this game already, too. You have to wipe out the province of SaskatchewanI decided it would be best to stop at "You have to circumcise the robots that can turn into vehicles."

Another question, why not just release at least a .zip and a .rar? Simultaneously? It can't be an issue of server storage space or bandwith, can it? It can't be as hard as making a page look the same in IE and in any other web browser.

fish can not be stalked for he is stealth
Wrong. I'm right next to him right now. I have him bound and gagged. next to his computer, so he can finish Fez.  So that must be what that one phone call was all about. The one where this mysterious voice told me that, if I didn't put this life-like human decoy in an undisclosed location, I would be killed and consequentially never get to play Fez.

It's still possible he really is crazy. I mean, I know of someone who tried to patent some bicycle invention only to find that it was already patented. The only possible explanation? Someone had stolen his invention. Years later, and thousands of dollar down the drain in lawsuits, he now wanders the mountains somewhere in Utah.
Genuine crazy is just as likely here as is an attention ploy. We'll know for sure if/when Mr. Pelloni gets in a multiple police car chase in a stolen car while high as a kite and completely naked.

I use a combination of Flash and an old copy of Jasc Animation Shop 3 that I got with Paint Shop Pro 7. Flash sucks at making GIFs (No control over color output AT. ALL.  ), so I export a PNG sequence in Flash and then import them all into Animation Shop. Though why would you use animated GIFs for anything outside of an internet browser? PNG image sequences have better compression, can be 24-bit with alpha, and is to GIF as OGG is to MP3.

 I've finally come up with a name an logo for the website content management system I've been working off-and-on for a while (about four or five years now...). It's been shaping up quite nicely, and might see an open-source release sometime next year. I'd have resized the logo before posting it, but I'm on holiday with just my laptop, on which I've discovered that Photoshop CS4 crashes whenever I decide to load an image.

What if getting one color would not just add one to a power, but take one from each other category and add it to that power (if there were any in every category), so that there would have to be a strategy to choosing what color to get next in order to maximize your acquisition of power (and to avoid draining all other powers)?
