Hmm...I had no idea that accounts were deactivated after they were inactive for some peroid of time, so I'm returning. Yep yep.

For those who don't remember me, here's a refresher course...

I'm SiliconHero. I run Sky Tower Games (which is currently down for maintenance, and I love most video games.

Please pay attention to this, because you may be asked questions about the above sentence for a quickie quiz later on. (PSYCHE!) Hahahaha...gotta have a sense of humor about these things, y'know?

So, uh...what'd I miss?

I think you can still get Winamp 2.x skins at http://classic.winamp.com/.

It's good to know that I'm not totally forgotten.

Draft? Sure, I'll have one. Want one, babe?

I'm not worried. I wouldn't put too much thought into those rumors.

Me? I've always been a fan of the flavored milk. I can't drink it straight out the bottle, though. I gotta have some chocolate or strawberry NesQuik stirred in somehow. Or cereal. Or cookies.

Very perceptive, Edsgravy, but I think I have the hang of it now. Thanks.

Posted on 06-23-04 11:07 PM, in Battles? Link
I've experimented with alternate battle systems with RPG Maker 2000, though I prefer using default because I can't make a good long game with a custom system.

The best one I've done resembled something like Azure Dreams or one of those roguelike RPGs (Angband, Nethack, etc.), without all the bells and whistles. I may try something like that again once RMXP is released. I haven't done a whole lot with game making lately, because I've been trying to get my site back up and running. To me, HTML/PHP come before RM2K3. :\

Posted on 06-24-04 01:08 AM, in Mm, Ice Cream Link
I like the Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream. I work at CVS/pharmacy, and they used to sell the half-pints of Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough and other delicious flavors up until about three months ago. I have no idea what caused the store to stop carrying it. Now, I won't be able to get my fix unless I go to the supermarket, and the Ben & Jerry's is more expensive there.

Karl Malone looks like he's ready to retire. I don't think he has that much left in him anymore. If anything, he'll probably play one more season, and then call it quits.

Hmm. I've seen products sold like that at CVS.

I'm sure they work to some extent. Weren't those Orange-Glo item (Orange Glo, Oxi Clean, etc.) once infomercial products?

Since I don't live in New Jersey, I know for sure who'll be pumping MY gas...ME. Pennsylvania doesn't have that many full-serve pumps...at least in the area where I live.

Some uninformed hockey fans (like myself) might even argue that the Tampa Bay Lightning winning the Stanley Cup this season may signal a low point in American hockey.

Nah...it's just the lamentation of a bitter Flyers fan.

How did Jay London get into the house? In my opinion, the guy has no charisma, or jokes.

That said, I'm looking at Kathleen Madigan to come out on top. I think she's the best of the bunch. I'd have gone behind John Heffron, too, but if I recall correctly, he's already had a Comedy Central Presents special this year, so he's not likely to win.

Myao...I mean welcome to the cub. I was once registered on the old board, purged, and then decided to make my way back. I had to Google search for the location of the new board, though. Rather embarrassing, I tells ya.

I'll allow it if the game file isn't too big. I usually don't host games that are larger than 10 megabytes in size, because it takes up a bunch of bandwidth when people try to download them.

I'm learning to be more careful about ANY program that I use. Those with EULAs, I double-check it first before installing. Those without, I either don't bother, or look around the place where I got it to see if others like me are using that program.

Posted on 06-27-04 05:46 AM, in Preferred scripting system? Link
If I actually had the commitment to stick to a single game project, I'd probably program it with some object-oriented language, like JavaScript. I don't have the necessary expertise to make a game in C++, as I can't do graphics with it.

I was able to do the Huck Finn and Strategic solutions tests at a net speed of 82 WPM. Back in junior high school, my fastest typing speed was about 60 WPM. That can be attributed to "Mario Teaches Typing."

There are several big communities based around games made with The Games Factory and Multimedia Fusion. Those cost money to make (I've read that MMF costs about $100 U.S.)

Posted on 07-07-04 05:25 PM, in Sandals/Flip flops/Thongs Link
I prefer sandals. I don't like the way flip-flops smack against your feet when you walk, and I didn't even know a thong was also a type of shoe until I played River City Ransom for the first time.
