I loved that game on Windows, especially since you could create and edit levels and it could be played with one or two players. I still have it, but I haven't played it in like a couple of years.

The recent Mega Man games have become so crazily difficult to complete properly with all bonuses intact that I honestly can't imagine anyone actually trying, but if you want a ridiculous challenge you could look there.

I agree, I really liked the old Mega Man games, except MM1 and I also enjoyed the MMX series. These games were relatively difficult, but you didn't have a bunch of stupid bonuses to get in the way, like all the chips on MM Battle Network. (I still enjoyed it, but I didn't go get all the stupid chips or anything, even though I normally like to get 100% on games, it wasn't any fun to even try) Anyway, if you're looking for good RPGs I'd reccomend Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and its sequel, but I don't know if there was a Mac version.

Noone that I know of, but it's hard to tell seings how people tend not to give their real name, image, and location for obvious reasons. One thing I can say though is noone I have mentioned Spiderweb Software to has never heard of it or any of its games. BTW, anyone else here from eastern Ohio (USA)? Or western West Virginia (which isn't far off)?

edit: Maybe Spiderweb Software should get into the T-shirt business, that would certainly assist the identification proccess.

Another note on stealing, oddly enough noone seems to care if your creations steal stuff so just lock your player character in an empty room and you can have your creations rob people blind right in front of them without anyone trying to kill you. lol Doesn't work with containers though, as only your player character can open them.

Question for Geneforge Series veterans in Geneforge Series
Warrior
Member # 5483
Profile #13
I actually started playing back through the series again myself some time ago in anticipation of GF4. As always I have been playing many other games along side them and doing other activities so I'm still only halfway through GF2 at the moment, esp. since I haven't played in about a week for no apparent reason. Before I was playing it less because I was tired from getting up early for school and on the weekends work left me with little time for games. (I work 9-5 and usually go to bed at about 8 and between 5 and 8 I have to get home, eat, take my pills, get a bath, etc. and by then I don't feel like playing anything major)

Hey let's start anagraming political celebrities. I didn't come up with this one, but "President Clinton of the USA" yields "to copulate he finds interns" :D One I did find was "George W. Bush" yields "he grew bogus" Not as good but I'm sure there are better ones, but I didn't feel like fishing through them all. Out of "President Hilary Clinton" I got "ironically pretends thin" "ironically strip then end" "try a noncredit hill pe***" and others.

Your most amusing G1-3 stunts in Geneforge Series
Warrior
Member # 5483

Funny thing is I tend to mod my FPS's to death but I haven't touched RPG's, although this wouldn't be terribly easy on most but I'll have to start messing with GF. I'm not good with art though, so don't expect me to do anything that likely warrants posting the image. As for stuff I've actually done that's odd, I'm sure I could think of some if I weren't so tired, but all I can think of off the top of my head is triggering deadly mines then shutting the door, such as in Learned Pinner's stuff in GF2. You'd think the door would blow up.

The Other Guy turned up
"he try gut hoe" I said I wasn't intersested!
and the rest were too vulgar for SSF

my real name turned up
"try a nobler men" I guess I'm too poor
"try no abler men" I guess they need a lazy person
"not en my barrel" what the...
"lone barmen try" I don't even want to know...

and that's about as far as I read (note that I rearranged words)

btw Garrison in my signature while the phrase is not original, the context in Matrix helps to illustrate the point in a manner that is familiar to many people, but thanks for pointing out the origin of the phrase; it made for an interesting diversion.

help with logarithms in General

I missed a day and I don't know how to solve these types of problems (I have a test on them tomorrow). While these are homework, it isn't graded and the answers are in the back of the book so don't think I'm cheating. I just need to know how to do them. In {} are subscripts.

Evaluate.
29. 2log{3}6 - log{3}4
31. log{4}40 - log{4}5

Here is part of a different set:

Solve each equation.
35. log{a}x = 3/2log{a}9 + log{a}2
39. log{a}(3x+5) - log{a}(x-5) = log{a}8
41. log{3}(x+2) + log{3}6 = 3

no subscripts below this line

answers: 29. 2 31. 3/2 35. {54} 39. {9}
41. 5/2

thanks A LOT in advance :D

Geneforge 1 carnisters? in Geneforge Series
Warrior
Member # 5483
Profile #9
Technically you could use an editor or trainer and save before every canister you use, then load and adjust the stat with the editor instead. This wouldn't make any difference in GF1, but I did this my 2nd time through GF3 in order to avoid doing stupid stuff without choosing to as a result of my canister abuse. The first time through I played as an agent and thus skipped shaping canisters, but still had negative effects later in the game. You know I'm actually playing through GF1 again myself and basically using everyone. First I joined the obeyers to get their stuff (I had high enough leadership to avoid any quests for any sects), then joined the awakened and gained their benefits, afterwards I made my way to Kazg and joined the takers and I'm still with them until I kill Trajkov and use the GF then I'll switch back to either Awakened or Obeyers. I would definately choose the Awakened except for my concern for the fate of the Sholai although don't they get killed between GF1 & GF2? (when the island is retaken or whatever)

Warrior
Member # 5483
Profile #26
I'd say more often than not a topic gets derailed because it is either boring or there's not much to say about it and if this isn't the case they usually find their way back to the original topic. On the subject of cold weather, ever notice how temperatures affect different longitudes differently? For example, 50F is T-shirt weather in the most northern parts of the US, but is coat weather in the deep south lol. Also my favorite color is black. This may be the most insignificant poll in the history of SSF lol.

edit: I meant the fav. color poll was insignificant
