Be carefull, Simon! May be Mr. Bush had read this thread, saw your picture, knew about your destructive plans. Soon you'll become the Terrorist N2 for USA.

The picture is from one of the USA's own tests. He can blow himself up for refusing to sign the Test Ban Treaty. I have my own ideas about who is really terrorist no. 1. But enough about that one.

This car was driven by someone with the same name as me (although mine has an extra blank) and both police officers who came also had the same name (sisters I guess). Just too many coincidences. He just didn't pay attention, I wasn't the one to blame. I don't deal with pitty crime such as damaging cars, I go for the real thing, nuclear holocaust, you should know that.

Aaaaarrrrggghhhh... They found out. By Allah, how is this possible. I'm driving a bike instead of a camel, I live in an appartment instead of a cave, and still they find out!?

I feel so left out! I'm in an entirely different part of the world, so when I'm out doing stuff you guys are here posting, and when I'm posting, you guys aren't here to immediately respond! That means every time I turn on my computer, there are about 40 new messages in this thread alone! I can't go on like this, I'm moving to a better time zone.

That's where you're off-track, Solar! :)
Consider my case : I'm in Singapore, and it's like another different dimension! Even crazier than your case, eh? :D

Xeon, you're in school? How old are you?

Yes, I'm still schooling, and I'm 18 years old. Please don't advertise me to those erotic sites, Solar. I know I'm real cute in a male student's uniform, but still.......

Yeah, be careful, Simon! Bush is crazy about any kind of terrorist, be it big or small. For all you know, he's already closely working with the President/Prime Minister in Belgium to get you into America for ****-style interrogation. Then, we shall see if the Great Beast 666 last longer or the Bush Administration. :):D

Can you imagine half the world blown off and just a hemisphere spinning off to Venus. Blow my half off and your half will spin to oblivion :p

Speaking of parts that easily fall into oblivion, where are YOU from Platinum Plus? YOU didn't say that although it is the topic of the thread. Or maybe you are Xeon? Are you also from somewhere below the equator (a part that would already be in oblivion if it weren't for that recent bombing down under) or across the other side of the Atlantic?

By the way: hi Xeon. What happened? Did you really get temporarily banned? In that case maybe I should keep low profile for a while too.

Yes, I got banned. Originally, it was for 1 full month!!!!(not really 1 full month, but around 20++ days)
The reason why I got banned was cos' I had a very mini cold war with Gabriel every now and then publicly on the forums. Under Chapter 43, page 631 of the Codeguru Laws annals, it states that any one, be it mortal or else, if they challenge any moderators and such, they'll be banished to the Abyss where they shall suffer immense helplessness, despair, agony, sadness and hopelessness.

But luckily, the Seraphi Jones, who was also the Judge, took pity on me and gave me the final chance. Legend refers to this date as "The Day Xeon Returned".

And yeah, Simon. U had better watch out for yourself. Even the minions of **** itself, including the Great Beast, will be reduced to naught when the Abyss overcomes you.

I was in total sadness when this great pillar of light shot me and I was brought back here. Since then, I've promised the Seraphi to be better, make less noise, reduce all crap-talk on programming forums by 99.999999999%, talk much much less about gurls and sex, less about chicken chops, and listen to what the moderators says and observe all rules.

By the way, has Gabriel been banned? I haven't seen any of his posts since I came back.
Here's a small code snippet that's meant as a li'l joke. No offence to anyone, please.

Code:

---

if(GetModerators(NULL).m_dGabrielFleseriu.m_bIsBanned == TRUE)
{
    GatherPals(ALL);
    SetUpAtmosphere(NULL);
    OpenChampagne_Food(FB::All);
}
else
{
    for(int i = 0; i < GetTotalMembers(); i++)
    {
        CMembers member(this,ALL_MEMBERS);
        member.ShutUp(i,FOREVER);
    }
}

---

Again, this is a joke, no offence. To be fair, I've made a joke outta myself too:

Code:

---


if(GetNastyKids(NASTYKIDS::Xeon).m_bIsBanned == TRUE)
{
    DoCheers(INFINITE);
    Celebrate(FOREVER);
}
else
{
    EnsureBan(MAX_BAN_ALLOWABLE);
    CMember::DestroyManhood(DMH_NOW);
    SendToAbyss(GetMember("Xeon"));
}

---

K? :D:D:):D

Not a good idea. Two things. Xeon might have hack the server and change any GetMembers("Xeon") to GetMembers("<<censored members names>>"). Second, Xeon could come back from the Abyss with demon, tanari, balor and devils or whatever he might find here ;)

Anyway, being late, about UT2003, you (<-- Yes you Simon ;) )said it is slow, are you saying the Engine is crap? When I played the demo, I said myself that great games could be done with such an engine. Also, you know UT2003 need a 733 mhz, it is pretty high, it demands a better processor instead of a better graphic card. Anyway, I'll have to take a peek to NHL2003, but you may not know about that games depending of where are you from :)

As for weather, it was -3 here today in the morning.

As for skiing, their is things worse than destoying a mountain with skis... like destroying building(s) with bomb(s) and plane(s).

Hey Jeff, what is your Avatar (a frozen cigarette-package?) it is very hard to make out because it is very dark...

Xeon, did you have to offer a sponsering for beeing allowed to come back to CG? (take a look at the top of the page... Intel Xeon Inside)

---

Most certainly not. The graphics are excellent and it turns very well on my Pentium 4 1.4 GHz with GeForce 3, although the detail could not be set to the highest because it was getting slow then. I did say that it is misleading and even deceipt to put only small levels in the demo because this makes you think you can play the entire game with all options on Maximum, or on my brothers older computer (P3 1GHz GFII if not mistaking) with still high graphics. It just looks ugly on the latter. And I did use the word crap for the level design since there are just too few and some or just shameless copies, as well as for the gameplay because your sniper rifle is worth nothing any more. I knew that sniping would be discouraged, but I didn't think it would be that bad.

The Engine will surely be licensed for others games like it have been with the first. I think UT and Quake3 engine are the expensive (and the better) of the industry, something like 200 000$ I think... may be wrong ;)

Well anyway, I did not get really impressed at first, but it is still really beautyfull (sp?). As for the Sniper, it will discourage people to be hiding and shooting everyone... but is not Sniping be hiding and shooting everyone? Anyway, for the levels, the community will surely create good ones, and recreate those of the first one ;)

As for my Avatar, it is not a CIGARETTE PACK and not a WASHING MACHINE. I'll offer ten (10) smily face to the one that find what (or who?) is my avatar ;) :)

JeffB - here, only one smiley face --> :D

I know and I hope the community will add new ones and recreate old ones, but when you pay around 60$ for a game the makers should **** well have done this job. And as far as your avatar is concerned, does it have anything to do with Nickelback?

It's an indication that either people from Europe are more numerous on Codeguru, or that they have more time to spare and hence post more on this thread :p

That's why I'ld rather see Europe on the list instead of a number of insignificantly small (if there is such a thing) countries, the worst of all Luxemburg (Dutch spelling).

And I think there is a face in the upper right corner of the avatar, of maybe the lead singer of Nickelback. They are Canadians too.
