That means you hate the delay, not the game itself. The game itself is going to be awesome.

Off Topic / Re: Dumb people getting owned - Israel digging its grave
« on: June 04, 2010, 04:58:09 PM »I get my news from these forums.
Is it a reliable network?
Do you consider the Blockland Forums to be a major news network along the lines of CNN or FOX?

Exactly.
Glad to see that not everyone on this forum goes along with whatever their news network is telling them.

« on: June 04, 2010, 01:42:58 PM »Many terrorist supply ships run under "humanitarian aid" flags.
Secondly, if they were a humanitarian ship, they should have just let them search the ship, find nothing, let Israel say 'ooops, we goofed, sorry, our bad" and just get on with their lives or at least lodge a protest to their respective government officials. The fact that they openly attacked the troops upon boarding only shows me their intentions were less than humanitarian. More like looking for an excuse to start an unnecessary international incident to support a bleeding heart cause.
Exactly.
Also, I just did some more research, and you know how ships that go to Israel dock in Cyprus first? Well, Cyprus wouldn't let this boat dock, I wonder why? Because they are freakin' terrorists!

Games / Re: Modern Warfare 2 Resurgence
« on: June 04, 2010, 01:18:22 PM »Here in about 3 hours I'm gettin on it.
Anyone wanna get a little group going in it?
Does anybody even have it?
So basically, if I wanted to get 10 new maps for Modern Warfare 2, 4 of which are from Call of Duty 4, I would have to pay $30.
Or, I could pay $20 and get Call of Duty 4.
Hmmmm, maybe $15 for 5 maps isn't the best price. Sadly, there's an entire generation of gamers who will just pay an overly high price for what is essentially a milking of the "Call of Duty" name.

Off Topic / Re: OBAMAR IS A TERRIST
« on: June 04, 2010, 01:16:01 PM »We all know he's a terrorist. He's a member of the Democratic party. What else starts with D? Demons! Since Osama prays to Satan every day to kill all the Americans and merge hell with Earth and make him second in command, Democrats also support terrorism and satan. Obama and Osama are also one letter apart because liberals are dumb and thought we wouldn't notice. Osama has an S in it and so does Satan so that is further evidence that Obama is satan and a terrorist.
The only way we can prevent the end of the world is by voting for Bob Barr. Bob has 3 letters in it and so does God, so Bob Barr is God's chosen one.
The only flaw in my theory is that Bob Barr is a Libertarian which means he prays to Ayn Rand and doesn't believe in god because giving away stuff for free (forgiveness) will turn the world into a communist dystopia, and even worse, a world where we magically forget grammar and use we as a first-person, singular personal pronoun. That's what communism does to you.
You have won the internet.
I especially the love the "Ayn Rand/Libertarian" part. That's the main reason why I only watch Fox for the news, and not the commentary, because 90% of the commentary is from diehard republicans like that Hannity guy who can't look libertarians in the eye, especially ones with religious beliefs.

Okay, hold on here.
Muffinmix, first of all, CNN is not a "not completely handicapped" source. If anything, it's the most handicapped of them all.
Second, Israel isn't stupid. They aren't going to board and detain completely innocent civilians because that would bring them a world of crap. Do you seriously believe that Israel is just evil and wants to kill and detain innocent people for no reason and deal with the consequences? Obviously, something else was going on, but CNN (and every other member of the liberal media) wants to spin it against Israel.
Third, they certainly weren't innocent civilians as 8 people were killed by them before and during Israel's boarding of the ship.
Fourth, do you really think that it's only the Islamic terrorist groups that want to wipe Israel off the face of the earth? Since Syria and Egypt can't beat Israel in a real war, it makes perfect sense for them to fund and support anti-Israel terrorist groups. Obviously, Turkey wants in on the Israel destruction party too, which makes sense, as they all share the same ideology.
Fifth, that ship was purposely trying to go through the Israeli blockade. It's called a blockade for a reason, and any true humanitarian group is going to get permission beforehand from Israel (to let them through), as is done all the time. Obviously, it wasn't a humanitarian group.
What's funny is that another pro-Palestinian ship is trying to break the Israeli blockade and they are going to do the same thing they did with the last ship. Seriously, what's wrong with defending yourself against a ship that either wants to attack you, or is going to give supplies to people who want to attack you?
EDIT: I know I organized this poorly, but I didn't have enough time. Just read through it.

Clan Discussion / Re: Is one word clans a "fad"?
« on: May 18, 2010, 03:42:27 PM »
I think that clans are stupid, and whether or not their naming schemes are copied by other clans or not is just as stupid to discuss.
The whole concept of a "clan" for a game about "internet legos" is ridiculous to me. Why does the community have to be fractured into so many different parts? If I wanted to ask someone to help with a build, can't I just ask them? Why should I have to be in the same clan so we can have a little network to ourselves?
What's a debate?
And it doesn't matter what the heck Nick Clegg thinks, but proper grammar is proper grammar.

This is a debate. Do you see Nick Clegg pointing out that David Cameron should of said "Nick and I" in the middle of a live debate? I didn't think so.

I didn't say it was hard. I said it was "really cool" because at the time it was the only way you could talk to other classrooms over the network.

One of my schools had a login system for teachers to edit their own webpages, and also access "teacher-only" things like schedules and grades. However, it (and the entire freakin' website for that matter) was so poorly coded that it never worked, and it especially never worked if you used a student account. Teachers would have to tell their kids that if they needed to look at their homework and stuff online, they needed to use the teacher's account (because the student account never worked), so essentially everyone knew every teacher's account and password. Yeah.
However, for the times that even the teacher account didn't work, I was called in (because they thought that I was a leet haxor that could get it working again). That was a mistake on many occasions to call me in. See, the website would almost randomly give administrator access to the website depending on if you were connected the school's network and if you were using a teacher account. So basically, I would try to force it to give me admin access, and would end up crashing the whole login system so that for at least a week no one could log on. All the time I swore I was "fixing" it.
One really cool thing I did over the school's public network was setting up a word document entitled "Open Me" where people could open the file, type a line, and save it for everyone else to read. Kind of like a really slow and primitive chatroom. I used a similar word document to prank a kid into thinking that the plot of National Treasure was real and took place around the school. It was fun seeing him look under bathroom sinks in the interest of finding "clues".

Wrong. The real point where you failed was in hoping to post pokemon themes as music tracks for Blockland. First off, who even downloads music for Blockland anyways? It's just annoying, and nobody who has a good server uses it (okay, maybe some people). Second, Pokemon?
Why am I writing this post like this? I can't organize my thoughts, darnit!

Off Topic / Re: Why should I list the band before the song?
« on: May 16, 2010, 02:53:52 PM »I'm really brown town about sorting my music. It's organized by folder, like:
C:\Users\Dave\Music\<Band>\<Album>\song.mp3
Actually, my entire computer is that neat.
My computer is also like that. Besides the fact that I have a minor case of OCD, I also had a horrible experience with a previous computer where files were not organized in any fashion. The computer eventually became so convoluted to even navigate that I was glad to put it out of its misery. With the new computer, I have a specific folder that each download goes into, so if its patches for ArmA 2 I put in it the "ArmA 2 Patches" folder, instead of lumping everything into "My Downloads" and hoping I can find them later.
Anyways, to answer your question, you should put the band before the song because it's much easier to remember the band's name and be able to access it in an alphabetical system than the song title.
