Yep 
yep its me again (I do restrain myself from a) being drunk, and 2) posting from that state, as much as possible - and still that's not much restraint...)

here's my random drunken thought (20 shots of rye, and usually I tend to be a lot more bitter, and a lot more vulgar in expressing it, than this):

I wonder what the dividing line between great art and nostalgia is. I wonder if we all would think Quake was so great if we hadn't encountered it at whatever youngish age we did. I wonder how the mind makes things seem better than they were, just so as to provide itself with some sort of masturbatory hope; ie whatever is shit now need not be that way. The older you get, the less new memories you generate. I think the games industry now is shit, and I have a shitload of reasons for that;I could write essays and essays. But if I was part of "generation Y" that grew up on the stuff that I consider shit, would I argue the same things based on that? 
 
I encountered Quake at about age 25 or slightly later.

I noticed the somewhat pixel-y graphics, but the gameplay, the sounds, and the dark atmosphere hooked me nonetheless. I knew DOOM/2 from back in school (so that's what I grew up with), but Quake's gameplay was simply brutal, and the sounds matched it. It was the simple, brutal, no compromise feeling that got through to me and hooked me.

As for the latter question, no, you would not. You would probably be amazed at the good stuff, instead of always finding fault. You would buy loads and loads of console games and *enjoy* them.

There's lots of nostalgia involved. 
Aaaaaauuuuurrrgghhhhhhhhh. 
Where's the Hungover Thread? X(

As a mapper, part of Quake's appeal is its visual simplicity. Although I do occasionally enjoy dabbling in CSS/HL2 mapping and I can't wait to try some in Left4Dead, I'll always come back to Quake because it doesn't restrict my creativity. Abstract architecture modern games needs some sort of context to look good, whereas in Quake, abstraction IS the context. I also get a bit weary of modern monster designs, as they tend to lack variety and are programmed with too much self-awareness, rather than to be fiendishly placed by the mapper.

i find quake does restrict my creativity because some things just can't be built with brushes.

by can't, i mean cannot be built in a reasonable amount of time for a reasonable amount of effort. 
Just A Stupid Question 
What do you consider as a reasonable amount of time for a reasonable amount of effort?
I guess it depends of the mapper patience, and determination to do things... so what's the threshold that allow you to decide whether it is worth to stop or continue to map ? 
Yes And No 
obviously, yes, what a mapper considers reasonable will vary. i'm talking about, for example, a room that would take 1 month to make in a brush-based editor vs. 1 day to make in a proper 3d package. 
Just 
Getting back into music after a drought.

Listening to Underworld pissed up on rum and beer whilst mapping; great.

Now downloading lots of nutty crap, Infected Mushroom is on the list, and Distran's stuff. 
Really? 
1/3 a bottle of Seagram's and I feel this shitty? Really? Three hours later, I've taken my neighbor's Jack Russel terrier out for a two mile walk in the middle of a foggy night, popped a coyote on the side of the head with a rock to scare it off, you'd think that alone would have sobered me up but no, I still feel this shitty, after a third of a fifth? This is ridiculous. My head feels like it is going to explode, over this? I have felt less shitty over some real hard core illicit shit -- there is no excuse for this; it is an insult. 
Well Fuck All 
I now have the hiccups.

Christ.

My hiccups are pretty fucking weird. Words don't do 'em justice, so hear for your self, me just a few moments ago, unedited:

http://mortisville.quakedev.com/thumpcups.wav

no, I'm not summoning demons, those are just a few hiccups. Avoid cemeteries while listening, you may accidentally wake the dead. 
Heh 
 
Go And Seek Professional Medical Attention 
 
Or: 
try YeagerMeister mixed with gin. As a single shot. I dare you. /n 
Overfed 
I tend to have less problems with alcohol than with eating too much while drunk. I tend to get this unbelievable appetite when I'm drunk, and forget to properly chew the stuff, and regret it next morning.

:-/ 
I Like 
Jagermeister.The taste, I mean. 
Ahg 
I'm free associating off Quake. I always suspected that addiction was where you found it.

For the record, submarines (Guiness + whisky) blow all those fairy drinks out the water like a U boat.

Oh yes, func, I'm going back to that period again. 
Update 
My friends are fucking hilarious. I have been a light drinker for several months now, so they thought it would be funny to slip a muscle relaxer in my Seagram's&GingerAle. Thank God, I didn't pass out while walking that dog, or we both would have been some coyote's bitch. I woke up a little after 7 pm, and I have been drinking coffee ever since. I have to be up early in the morning, but who knows, I'll likely not need the sleep.

If anyone has some good ideas how to get those fuckers back, I'm all ears.

FWIW, White Lightening iz ze best for a really strong drink that will make you hear colors, mutate your semen, and see shit. 
Get A Bottle Of Jagermeister (bad Spelling I Know Meh) 
and a bottle of gin, take a shot glass. Half fill with Jagermeister, and top up with Gin.

Down in one. Blech! 
Well 
As much as I am excited about the prospect of more WARP-scale-esque content from Ijed, I cant help but feel slightly concerned for his menntal well-being. 
Thump 
Try laxatives. The drop kind - three or four drops (or half a bottle if it's not in your house) and there'll be plenty of shits and giggles. Saw this played out once when a friend had to tear off his keks and pebble-dash a car.

Ricky, these things happen in cycles and RQ is on no deadline, although we are thinking of a demo for the Expo, assuming it drops at the same time.
