Custom Derper.
http://www.youtube.com/user/darrenweekes/videos?sort=dd&view=0&shelf_index=0

I am getting a bit of a geek-crush on the smoothly spoken Englishman that is DAZ with his insightful and thought-provoking series of derping around missing all the secrets and even items that are right in front of him errrr I mean talking about mapping while playing cool levels. So I thought his channel was worth it's own seperate thread - entertaining for players and mapping veterans, and potentially very useful for newer mappers as DAZ does offer some really good views on mapping theory. Also DAZ go ahead and put all your updates in here.

Scampie, Chill Out. Have Some Weed Or Something. 
 
I'll Pop For An NVidia 660 Card For You... 
If we can figure out the details. I'm across the pond from you ;)

Let me know. 
I'll Chip In 
if that means more 'ello guys videos! 
I Prefer To Be Addressed 
as "yewchoob." 
Thanks! 
I'm honestly pretty bowled over by the amount of offers of donations and other help that people have offered both from the quake scene and elsewhere. I had absolutely no idea! I'm really not sure how to deal with it honestly!

As of right now I am waiting to hear back from Mateusz (the guy who runs level-design.org) as he may be able to spring an unused gpu from his work for me which would be fantastic.

Thank you everyone for the generosity! Fingers crossed I can ello guys once again soon :) 
The Only Reason Anyone Maps 
is so they can see a flyover of it on youtube with you saying ello guys over it. 
You're Welcome DaZ 
But if that doesn't work out(card from Mateusz), let me know. I'll get you a card asap ;) 
Daz 
you're the new Shambler; you've achieved the rank of most-important-critic, whose review work encourages q1sp mapping

(no offense to Spirit who I would not consider a reviewer but rather an archivist, and who has no parallel new or old) 
Poor Daz. 
My commiserations ;(

Thanks to negke who provided a tool to underclock my gpu so it wouldn't crash while playing Quake :) 
FFS. 
Get the "Ello guys" back >:( >:( 
GO HARD OR GO HOMO?!? 
I like how....parental you sound when you're telling people to play the map first ;)

Love the fly-through shot down through the scrags in the pent room.

Very good review Daz, lots of good points especially about the combination of interesting mechanics but the need for more harmonious visual language.

One small thing, exploring the lower slime area is needed to get the biosuit for the upwards slime pipe, which you seem pretty keen on :)

BTW if you go the quick route back from the Quad, you can actually get down and kill the zombies with it by the time it runs out.

Classic Map! 
Thumbs up! 
I Really Really Like How You 
avoid having to pronounce Iikka's name, that's very very clever ;-) 
I Like 
the current lack of graphic power..
Cool video again! 
Lovin',,, 
...the shambler dances. 
 
Yessss the secret mission to cripple Daz's video card is bearing delicious fruit.

Unfortunately Mateusz had no luck springing a gpu from his place so argh :(

If you still want to help out with the great gpu crisis of 2014 then email me at darren.weekes@gmail.com and let's see what we can cobble together :)

Yes I very intentionally avoided saying Finger's real name :D I have absolutely no idea where to even start with that!

Right now I'm working on Tronyn's Masque of Red Death which I somehow completely missed when he released it :P That video will probably be done by the end of this week at the latest. I have some footage of the Jackhammer editor as well, I just need to record some commentary for it without screwing it horribly :P

I haven't put a whole lot of time into the editor but if anyone here has and has noticed any cool/not cool quirks or features that bare mentioning in a video then please let me know! Right now I feels like an almost carbon copy of Valve Hammer with some nice added features such as the valid brush shapes check etc. 
Paypal 
I just received a very generous donation from Sleepwalkr over paypal and thinking about it, paypal is probably the easiest way to handle this if you wanted to help out!

You can send a donation to the email address darren.weekes@gmail.com using paypal and it will be very gratefully received!

Looking at current prices on amazon/ebuyer uk I can grab a nvidia 560/660 for around �100-�130 which would be perfectly adequate for all my ello guyz for the next few years at least :)

With Sleepwalkr's donation I need just under �100 to reach this goal. Of course if the amount isn't reached I will refund everyone's money but please keep in mind that paypal takes a percentage of any transactions (I think it's around 2%) so any money refunded will probably be slightly less than what you initially sent. I've never used paypals refund system so maybe it doesn't work that way but it wouldn't surprise me :P

Thank you very much in advance if you do donate! <3 
Some Monies Sent... 
I hope it helps :) 
 
sleepwalkr, you are awesome.
