Last view: 6145 days 		But did it happen as soon as you clicked "New Thread" like it used to in this version, or only when you submit it? If the flood control only kicked in when you submitted the thread, probably nobody even noticed as it takes some time to enter a post, especially when starting a thread as those posts tend to be longer, and you're entering a title as well as a post. (And with a poll, you're also entering all the poll choices.)

I like the idea of special, green-coin only accessories.

Here are a few ideas:

EXP Booster - Gives 20% more EXP for each new post when equipped, and also increases the rate you gain EXP when idle.

Coin Trick - Doubles yellow coins earned from each new post when equipped.

Scrooge Ring - Halves the cost of all items in the shop when equipped.

Of course, the shop and stuff is a long way away from being completed.. but it's nice to think every once in a while..


I think if we have those, there should be the additional constraint that you can only be "using" one of them at a time. That would add a strategic element as to which one to equip at any given time. (And you can't change them every five seconds either.)

Then again, what exactly are these for? Acmlm's: The Videogame?

Last view: 6145 days 		Yeah, when I was learning C, EVERY book I saw used Allman style:

int main()
{
printf("Hello world");
}

so I just got used to that style, and I think K&R style (with the left curly bracket at the end of the previous line but the right curly bracket on its own line) looks so...wrong. And unbalanced. I have a much harder time reading K&R-formatted code for some reason.

Also, I tend to omit the curly brackets if there's only one statement.

My experience is that Paint tends to ruin the colours of any image not stored as .bmp.

Last view: 6145 days 		A lot of programming languages have a data type called char or Char, usually for single characters, strings, or both. How do you pronounce this word?

I say it "char" like the English word "char", with a ch sound as in chicken, but I've also heard "care" and "car" as pronunciations. I understand "care" as it is the pronunciation of the first syllable of character, but where are people getting "car"? It sounds like a weird hybrid compromise pronunciation to me...

Something like this should be sticked so that no more "There Is No Edit Post Feature" threads will be made.


Yeah, but people tend to ignore stickies.

I don't know that keeping all the old posts is a good idea. Most edits are either fixing typos or bad code, or just adding something to a post. Are the old versions really necessary?

* Misses the old Acmlmboard days *


HECK YEAH! 2002 and 2003 forever! (and probably 2001, but I wasn't around that early)

Thos board has some element of the old days. Probably because of the lack...well, rarity of OMG TEH DRAMA.
