Off Topic / Identify the JPEG

« on: April 12, 2014, 05:47:11 PM »

What you do is you post a heavily JPEG'd image, and other people try to guess it.

Here's one JPEG to start the thread:


EDIT: It was a bench! Congrats to everyone who got it right!

Off Topic / What's your number?

What you do is click the link, and you get a random 5 digit number. Post what you get! You can even post multiple 5 digit numbers as well.

I got 51924.

Instead of posting them spread out like
4 1 4 5 5,

just remove the spaces in between the numbers, so it would be 41455.

Off Topic / Windows XP is dead

« on: April 08, 2014, 03:23:28 PM »

Yup, it's dead.
Now, to be honest, XP was my most favorite operating system, Not to mention XP was the first OS I ever used. Well, there must be a point where end of life is reached. And it's now. No more security updates or XP patch Tuesday, XP computers will now be targeted by hackers to exploit vulnerabilities and put viruses and bad stuff on computers that still run it. Well, goodbye.

Off Topic / RIP Windows XP - The clock is ticking

« on: April 02, 2014, 06:41:57 PM »

Anyone remember good old Windows XP, pretty much the best operating system ever in my opinion? Well, on April 8th, Microsoft will pull the support plug. That's it, support for Windows XP is ending. Now, I loved XP. It introduced me to computers, and I fell in love with the OS. Well, time to say goodbye.

Good night, sweet prince.

« on: April 01, 2014, 06:29:03 PM »

So, I set up a windows 98 virtual machine, and I put internet and all, so I browsed the forums with it.
Also, I am looking for the graphics drivers, so it's pretty much 16 colors.

Off Topic / BLOCKLAND HOVER TOURNAMENT - RED WINS GAME 2, POLL ADDED

« on: March 30, 2014, 07:30:00 AM »

http://hover.ie/#mp/1439904911

Anyone wanna do a 8 player match with me?
LET'S DO A 8 4 PLAYER HOVER TOURNAMENT! LET'S SEE WHAT TEAM WILL WIN!

Also, let me explain what this game is.
You control a hovercraft/bumper car, and you must capture all the opposing team's flags to win. So it's kinda like CTF. There are power ups and power downs placed around the map as well.

Hover was originally released in 1995 on the Windows 95 Companion CD-ROM. Last year, in october 2013, Microsoft brought the game back, with the game updated for today's game standards. Also, you need a web browser with WebGL, one browser is google chrome.

PLAYERS IN GAME 1:
Mr Queeba
Superbro11
Rabid Doge
Sehgoo

WINNING TEAM IN GAME 1:
Red

PLAYERS IN GAME 2:
Mr Queeba
Pentium
Player 3
Player 4 (Actual Name Unknown)


WINNING TEAM IN GAME 2:
Red

PLAYERS IN GAME 3:
Soon!

WINNING TEAM IN GAME 3:
Soon!

Drama / I'm getting sick of people posting my face (edited or not) on the posts I make.

« on: March 22, 2014, 12:40:01 PM »

OK, I just want to explain.
A while back in the "Post real life pictures of yourself" thread, I posted my own face.
This was met with a bunch of edits and all, and I'm just getting sick of this whole fad thing where when I post someone, a person will post a picture of my face, in which the photo may be edited.

My message, stop this. I know some people won't, but I didn't realize this was the consequence I am facing. It's getting old.
