Hello there, I'm Chef Radial. Do you like to cook? If so, do you like to show your perfected brick recipes to the world? Well then Chef may be the clan for you!

Chef is a clan for medium+ builders that would like to build alone, or with other people in just about any server. If you want to host a Chef specific server, which in fact is not needed, you may without my permission as long as your in the cult clan. It is preferred that members get to know each other and even may be able to contact each other to join their servers or to build in some other one.

How do I apply to be a Chef, Radial?

Ah, a very good question indeed! To apply post your finished recipe (build) in the gallery, there is no brick limit as long as it is intuitive and what we are looking for. Make sure to title it "(Insert Name Here)'s Chef Recipe" or it might get overlooked! Don't forget to post good pictures and your ID. Only brick recipes will be taken. Clan members may post about how they will or won't get into the clan and my rate, but I have the final word.

So, what are the clan tags?



Other requirements

- Don't be an eggplant.
- Type with good grammar, fixing your mistakes.
- If I see your bring an idiot on the forums and not in-game; vise-versa; you can get kick from the clan.
- Continually applying will lower your chances to be a Chef.
- Clan impostors will be baked to a crisp.

Help / v9 Mac Editor

« on: August 11, 2008, 01:49:35 PM »

Hey I am using the Mac version of Blockland. I unzipped the editor and saw the editor shell command. When I run that it opens up Blockland but does nothing. I am pretty sure I am doing it wrong. What do you need to do to get the editor working on the Mac? Thanks.

Off Topic / Dream²

« on: July 17, 2008, 08:31:54 PM »

Seeing that Colten and darthvolga both posted their dreams I decided to post mine (lol).

Anyways here it is:

    I lived on an island, but the island was really a giant boat. I knew when I had that dream that I was living there to dodge the nuclear attack from Russia on America because they were secretly still angry at the US because of the Cold War. On my island I got supplies from the Mexican drug cartel dropping food from a plane (wtf!?) onto my artificial island. I also had internet, but to get it I had a very, very, long ethernet cord. I also had to have the cartel to order special tissues for toilet paper and a stuffy nose because the President of the US was actually a Charles Manson fanatic and was forcing all the paper companies to add hallucinogen narcotic drugs in powder form on the tissues, Flash Mobing all the citizens. So I found out later in the dream that Fidel Castro actually took over Russia and reformed the USSR dictatorship and was about to attack the US with all the ICBM missiles that were left over from the Cold War and modified to achieve faster speeds. So the US intelligence found this out and started to put subliminal messages on tv to join the military. Later in the dream, the US was demolished and I moved to France. The end. I have strange dreams...maybe it's a premonition ^^

Off Topic / Collaborative Story

« on: July 13, 2008, 05:38:34 PM »

  Well, I know there are other story like threads about "Choosing Your Adventure" and that kind of thing, but I am aiming more for a collaborative story. When the story ends I will copy and paste all of the parts people wrote with this names in the author list together. (I will put the paragraphs together in order of when they were posted)

Rules for Fools

• Do not end the story until I start the vote to end it.
• Indent (Four spaces).
• One paragraph at least, but not over two. (Five to 15 sentences in a paragraph in my opinion)
• Have details and description in your paragraph(s) and don't forget your grammar and spelling.
• You may write anything that you want to strange, perverted lol, funny, etc.
• Make the start and end of your paragraph(s) easy for another person to pick up and make all of the parts flow.
• Ruining the story is for friends.
• Commenting on paragraphs is ok, but double posting to add more paragraphs is not.

If I don't include your snippet of the story in the main post, then you either didn't make it flow, it ruined that part of the story, or you didn't follow the rules.

Here is the start of the "chain"...

    John was walking down the sidewalk and he could feel his massive, bloated body wiggling around with every step. It was a blistering hot day, and his shirt was very wet and full of sweat dripping down his arm pits. As he looked around, he saw the swarming crowds franticly bustling around him. All his life people had been strangely staring at him, and for some reason, John didn't know why until about five months ago when he went to the doctor's bright office for his annual six month checkup. There he heard that he was chronically fattened.

Hello,
    I am dual booting Ubuntu off of Mac OS X, and my parents won't let me install it unless I have a good internet filter. Do you know of any good ones for Ubuntu? Shareware or freeware will be just fine, thanks.

Hello,

Games / Clonk Rage

« on: June 28, 2008, 08:10:48 PM »

    Clonk Rage is an action/adventure/rpg/building/RTS game in beautiful 2-D. It takes a little bit to get used to, but once you learn how to control and learn it, it gets to be a narcotic (addiction). I’ll try to summarize the game a bit. Basically, Clonk is an extensive 2D action-adventure-strategy platformer. Usually you control a group of the Clonks, using them to build up a settlement. For the building process you need resources, which you can get by digging into the ground. There you can dig for coal, pump up oil, or blow up veins of ore and gold. While gold is the common currency in the game, you also need energy – coal is used to fire up furnaces, which melt ore to metal. And windmills are used to power elevators which will let you mine more professionally. There are also pipes, wires and other thinks that you can connect to make things work!

    At least, that’s the most common scenario. Actually that’s just a tiny bit of what Clonk offers in terms of variety, but summing it all up is practically impossible. Other popular scenarios are the middle age, where huge castles are built and knights fight hand-to-hand or on horseback, and the Western, where small towns are built and cowboys shoot each other. There are also several flavors of foreign worlds, like the arctic, a deep jungle… you name it.

    There’s an uncountable amount of more stuff due to Clonk’s modability. For at least 10 years now there’s been a huge community of people who have created all sorts of stuff. It ranges from level mods that use pre-made content, or scripted adventures (for example, there is a neat Diablo-esque level that includes questing and leveling up), to completely original scenarios, like a cool sci-fi pack that includes armored troops with machine guns, hoverbikes, and huge complexes full of alien scum. I hope that helps explain why it’s so hard to just define Clonk.

    Technically, the series has come quite far. While it featured cute, but crude, hand-drawn 2D pixel art in the past, the game now features a 3D look that isn’t any less charming. Probably most interesting though is the destructibility of the terrain, which reminds of Cortex Command, and the “fluid” physics. The water in the game is pretty dynamic, making rain a lethal foe as it loves to flood your mine shafts. The only thing that hasn’t really changed is the quite archaic midi music. For me that’s simply added nostalgia, but it might be annoying for new players (F1 disables music!).

    And to briefly cover one of Clonk’s most important aspects: there is multiplayer. All kinds of it. You can play in split-screen with up to 4 players sharing a keyboard, but you can also plug in as many gamepads as you’d like. There’s also internet-play, which works mighty fine without especially much lag. And how you play is entirely up to you: You may want to play a small “Melee”, which is a kind of deathmatch, or you may build up huge colonies with walls and other defenses to have really big battles. Or you can just play a level cooperatively to build up a huge colony with a friend… or twelve.

 Catch me or other Blocklanders online. My Username is "Radial543". You can get a fully functional demo (you can play online, but you can't create servers or play a couple of scenarios) to buy it (I did, it's awesome) it is 15 USD or EUR 15.00.

Now time for a screen-shot gallery!

Yay for single computer split-screen!



There is alot more features and things that you can do in Clonk, but I didn't want to post too much!

Off Topic / Welcome to Blockland

« on: June 26, 2008, 03:29:23 PM »

I'm Radial543 and I'm here to ask you a question:
    Is a man not entitled to the sweat of his own brow?

No, says the kid in ROBLOX. It belongs to the noobs.
    No, says the guy from Lego Universe. It belongs to Lego's competitors. 
  No, says the man from the Facepunch forums. It belongs to 4Chan.

I rejected those answers. Instead, I chose something different. I chose something better. I chose...

BLOCKLAND

A game and community where the builder would not fear lag. Where the scripter would not be bound by a petty language. Where the great would not be constrained by the small. And with the sweat of your brow, Blockland can become your game and community as well.

Suggestions & Requests / Universal Melee

« on: June 09, 2008, 09:54:03 AM »

Hello,
    I was wondering if this could happen. In a script when it is ticked in the addons list, it allows in minigames so that when you right clicked, or you held cntrl + click it meleed and shot out the sword projectile and preformed the armattack animation. This would be possible with all guns and weapons. What do you think? Thanks.

Suggestions & Requests / Land Mine

« on: May 07, 2008, 10:08:02 AM »

Hello,

I was wondering if anybody would be willing to make a decent land mine. I am pretty sure that this has been inb4. I Think that It wold look like this: but would have a red light on the top that flashes, like the included red alarm light. Then we could lay it like in grass and all, and we can plant little signs with bricks like this: Just a thought, thanks. (please excuse the horrid page layout with the pictures :P)
