I'm just dreaming about a ship cimeterry full of monsters..

If you ever make such a level, I have the perfect name for it. Do you know what the Barbary Pirates called their deep sea hell? 

No... Let me know please .. 

Dom Daniel -- The first time I encountered the word was in a short story by Gene Wolfe several years ago. I looked it up with whatever search engines were available at the time, but I found little information (Gaimon also made reference to it in Sandman).
So I looked up Wolfe's e-mail address and asked about it, and got a nice little etymonic discription in return. I wished I still had that e-mail, it was quite interesting. 

Please if you still have this email, send it to lambert_jph - at - yahoo - dot - fr

I'm always interested by these "mythological" stories... it gives me some good inspirations for mapping ;)

c) Metl fix this fucking recursive sql error so I don't have to keep retyping posts. 

I didn't comprehend Lun's post on first read, and I clicked the links thinking it was a tech demo of some new valve engine... :O 

That's an entirely reasonable assesment and I can clearly see how what I said could be construed as such by a sober, clear-headed individual. 

the image of manbabbies does take a little time to shake before you get to point b). 

Er, a collective of Barbra Streisand impersonating transvestites, maybe? 

Thanks for that mental image. Really. Thank you. 

Just doing my small part in sparking the Apocalypse. Every little nudge helps.

The internet needs broadcasting technology. (Or active proxies as people from different timezones start following links)

when somebody complains about a crappy map / game which is just plain corridors and stupid enemies, I can just say that "you just don't understand, it is perfect! A masterpiece of the hayden tunnel inspired". 

you, sirs, all rock hard. 

that the baroquefactory picture and others was from - it's only $300-400! 

Awesome pictures of Russian architecture and landscapes from the turn of the 20th century:
