    Scotty -
    I responded! so there. And by wednesday... do you have change for a $50? Where will I be able to find you?

    um... what else. Oh, Westmount, that's a ways away, will we be carpooling, or bussing, or what? That theatre's got floor to ceiling curtains, pretty swanky... And my cousin's buddy once stood behind them and mooned the audience as the curtains parted to let the movie begin...

    Not suggesting anyone else should do that, just saying...

    Holy Crap! I finally found a copy of Star Control II on the web. This has to be the greatest day in the history of... this message board! This has been something I've been searching for for awhile now. I know I've ranted to Paras, Percy, Ng's, Pete, and probably others about this game. Well now my friends, each and every one of you can play this game and waste away either study time or your whole Christmas break.

    The original game was an old DOS game. But the released it for the 3DO which ran off CD's so the newer version had sound files and movies. And since there were enough loyal fans bothering the company, they released the source code to the 3DO version of the game. So the loyal fans rebuilt the thing, and from what I know it is in pretty much complete working order.


    I encourage you all to download and play this game, there is even a Linux version ( Paras ). Here is a link to the fan site, which you should all read:
    Star Control II
    And here is a link to the project download site:
    Download Site

    I would even suggest downloading the remixed music, its pretty good!


    The game starts you off with out background info into the story. The whole why you are where you are thing. You can read about that here

    As well "Melee" mode is one of the best parts of the game. You should at least try that before jumping into the huge long game. The aliens are nasty, and humans suck so you better figure out how to fight before anything else. Plus it can be played in two player mode which kicks ass! I kinda just pressed buttons till stuff started happening, but I think most of the controls are the directional keys, space, shift, control, enter, esc, and F1.


    In any event thats it! If you take my advice to play any game, make it this one! Have fun boys and girls.

    So... hopefully it works, I'm also behind on the posts... but y'all post a lot.

    You are Palm OS. Punctual, straightforward and very useful.  Your mother wants you to do more with your life like your cousin Wince, but you're happy with who you are.
    Which OS are You?


    punctual, straightforward and useful... damn... why can't i be more fun? and My mother wants me to do more with my life?? what?

    Okay... sorry, LIME, for not apparating at the concert, but I was too busy generating bruises in unusual places on my body via riding objects down snowy hills at midnight. It was fun, y'all. Except for Pete and Ted, who need to discover other ways of picking on me that don't involve my beans.

    Well now I'm finally getting tired I should go to bed...
    If anyone feels like going to Genet 408 for me it would be much appreciated V102 10-11, just let me know what the hecks going on in that class because I just can't seem to make it.
    Anyway, have to conserve energy to test out my new snowboard later
    And maybe ride my Dike (lol - I crack myself up)

    Have you ever noticed that the prefixes Bi and Di mean the exact same thing?

    If you have 2 oxygens it's Dioxide, but no-one ever calls it Bioxide
    But Divalent and Bivalent are interchangable
    Bicycle is never called Dicycle
    Dichotomous is never called Bichotomous
    You can have a Dihybrid but not a Bihybrid

    makes no sense to me.
    hehehe... Dicycle is funny

    oh... and congrats Par on your advancement to the Final Four - since you're asleep the acrylamide and I will take the liberty of recounting the events of the last series. Hope you don't mind.

    An initial 3-1 victory was followed up by the most embarrassing game in the history of the Cmput 366 VSL (Virtual Soccer League). Disheartened by their initial loss, team 10452 took the game to a new level of intensity just before half time by severely decapitating the Prodigious Panache goalie Gree N. Dot. PP responded by kidnapping 10452 star forward Yell O. Dot, wrapping a string of code around his neck in a makeshift noose fashion and hanging him from their goal posts. This infuriated 10452 even more when the lifeless virtual body blocked the potential tying goal just as time ran out of the first half.
    The second half began not as a soccer match, but as an all out royal rumble complete with step ladders and folding chairs. As the dust settled it was clear that the game would not continue due to the highest death toll ever recorded in a soccer match since that game in England yesterday. The referees gave out the obligatory red cards, dragged the corpses off the field, and called the game at the current score of 2-1 for Prodigious Panache.

    Goalie Gree N. Dot was available for comment after the game:
    "Well we went out there and played it as a team. We just left it all on the field and gave 110%. But what did I get for it huh? A severe decapitation, that's what! We're pissed, and team 40519 we're coming for you next."

    Strong words from a strong dot. Prodigious Panache will advance to the final four to face team 40519.


    Elsewhere in the league, the much favoured team XX***YYY also advanced to the final four however the big guns were reduced to only 11 goals in two games. XX***YYY will be facing the cute but flightless Christmas Penguins for a spot in the finals.
