No, no, this thread is very good and worthwhile. There's nothing more satisfying than congragulating Archmagus Micael on his 1000 posts.

Congrats, Micael!

Well, as soon as you get the hang of SDFs, you'll want to use them like heck, so it's a good idea to keep track of what SDF you used where, to avoid any confusion, and most of all, double uses of the same flag, which is the cause of many a hard-to find bug.

No, think of it as Avernum 4. Many differences between the two, the biggest one being that one will never exist.

I'm sure they documented on which side of the grave his body was thrown. Take all the skull from that side, compare facial features and size with the stolen head in the year 4106, and you should be able to tell.

I wonder if possibly a section of your hard drive was damaged or something. I suppose that would limit access to certain files to that section, if you've experienced any such problem.

Or maybe something was automatically installed on your computer via the Internet. You know, Windows Updates, service packs, etc.

If disk defragmenter doesn't help the situation out, you may just have to accept the fact that your hard drive has only one gigabyte of space left.

He he, lucky me, I have a wind generator in the back. a fair size one too, probably seven feet in diameter. But even with the wind we get, it still takes a while to charge a standard car battery. We only use it for a couple lights in our house and to run the fridge every once in a while. Yes, my computer is still eating up the coal. :P

And math is so much better than English.

Anyway, English is a skill you will need in life, Harvard professer or not. The more English, you have, the better your communication skills, reading speed and comprehension, composition skills, and basically the better you are with interacting with other people and sharing your ideas in an effective manner.

Without English, it's hard to succeed in anything else. (I guess the same goes for math, too, and I'm surprised most school don't require four credits of that as well.)

I guess you eventually found out it [high school] was both. Rather like Spiderweb in fact, but with less free time. And marginally more sanity, though not much...
Well, I have yet to experience much of the scary part, and have had mostly the fun part which is good. It's better the less sanity, though, especially when the teacher isn't much more sane than the kids.

Anyway, the homework is quite easy and I've never had more fun. So.

Wow. Member after member at 1000 posts. I wonder how many posts have been made so far on these boards. Aran just needs to tally up all the post counts of all the members and add them up.

Yes, exactly. The Cardinals are definately the best. They just had a tough time last year at the world series. This year... they dominate!

However, I've never seen Australian "footy" or heard about it anywhere other than on these message boards, so I can't say I have a team preference there.

Okay, what stuff done flags are is a grid of size 10x300. In each cell is an integer value that defaults to zero and can be changed, requested, or otherwise manipulated by certain special nodes.

Stuff Done Flag A and B are the coordinates of this grid, so say:

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
3 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
4 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
5 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
6 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
7 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
8 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
9 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
100 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
110 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
...to 299
Stuff Done Flag A is the vertical coordinate of the stuff done flag you're referring to, and SDF B is the horizontal coordinate.

Therefore, SDF A must be between 0 and 299 while SDF B must be between 0 and 9.

Still confused?

Or you could try Start - Programs - Accessories - System Tools - Scan Disk (or Disk Cleanup, or whatever it says).

Hmmm. Anyway, I never knew a computer could use a HD for RAM. I'd wager it's quite a bit slower memory when it has to resort to that.

Not to my knowledge. I'm ready.

Unfortunately, however, I am devoid of good car crash stories to relate. For me anyway. Quite a while back, someone lost control, skidded a few times across the road, and ended up in our front yard in an overturned rig. That was quite exciting, though I was young and can't remember many details.

So Mozart's head will be reestablished around the turn of the 40th century. Yay.

I fully agree with your title, though, DL. Why would anyone come up with such a thought as to steal Mozart's head and why would anyone really care if he did. Other than monetary reasons, of course. :P

Most executables are fine to download as long as you just clicked the download link and it's something you want. Strange E-mail attachments you definately want to watch out for, though.

This makes total sense to me. I mean, as ogre and goblin technology progresses, they figure out that cooked food is both healthier, more tasty, and less disease-prone while promoting a cleaner dining atmosphere. They see that messily killing and eating is not the way to go, and the best at cooking where called chefs.

Maybe they have a special ability of throwing boiling water at you. ~35 damage per party member. :P

Yes, but is UBB really a standard message board?

Anyway, since our bandwidth here is supposedly quite limited (supposedly), it makes sense that we should have HTML disabled. But then again, we could make our posts web pages themselves, easily post a web page itself, and whatnot. :P

No, keep it disabled. *sigh*

However, I'm pretty sure that nobody with a higher number than me has hit 2000. Which makes me an even madder madman.
