You're a load of useless bloody loonies! 
Stick It Up Yer Nose! 
...which is exactly the kind of thing we need to know. I mean, do people want fire than can be fitted nasaly? 
The Encyclopedia Galactica 
... defines a robot as a mechanical apparatus designed to do the work of a man. The marketing division of the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation defines a robot as "Your Plastic Pal Who's Fun to Be With."

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy defines the marketing division of the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation as "a bunch of mindless jerks who'll be the first against the wall when the revolution comes," with a footnote to the effect that the editors would welcome applications from anyone interested in taking over the post of robotics correspondent.

Curiously enough, an edition of the Encyclopedia Galactica that had the good fortune to fall through a time warp from a thousand years in the future defined the marketing division of the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation as "a bunch of mindless jerks who were the first against the wall when the revolution came." 
Mmmm Panoramic Screenshots 
These were done simply with the F12 key, some right-arrow-key taps and gentle mouse movements

I wish I could have all the shots in the same perspective though... I think I'm going to do shots like these for my maps. 
Hmm 
PQ also seems to have missed my old site, the last update of which was on 13th September 2001 (and said that the site was no more :) 
Pushplay

Phait: 
Hmm 
Trouble with PQ deleting stuff is that there was a lot of decent information out there. Just 'coz something is no longer updated doesn't mean the information isn't just as valid as it was the day it was written. 
Hehehe...

PQ Si T3h W3ird 
Hmm, my account on PQ only serves as a redirector since about a year already, I don't even display their banners or shit. I was expecting my account to be deleted for quite some time now but they didn't even killed it this time... *scratch head* 
Custom QW FFA Sunday 
We just finished playing blackpopes maps and I think everyone had a good time. Next week we will play Auhsan's maps and then Biff's maps. The map order will be: auhsan1, auhsan2, auhsan3, auhdm1, auhdm2, then impdm1, impdm2, impdm3, filthy, imp1dm5, and imp1dm6.

The carnage starts Sunday 3pm EST. 
Zzjzz 
Are you going to use Imp1DM6 or Imp1DM6 second edition? 
Oi 
/me works on his next map like mad to get have his played too 
Describing Levels To Non-Geeks 
So, when you tell someone that you're a mapper, how do you describe it to them? Do you use any similes or metaphors? If so, what are they? 
Use The Standard Imp1dm6 
Just use the normal one. 
RPG: 
i say that i design "the 3D environments in which the game takes place." 
Building A New Pc... 
What would you recommend based upon reliability/performance?
What would you suggest to avoid?

From:

CPU's, hard-drives, mice/keyboard, graphics cards, motherboards, RAM, CD-ROM and CD-RW drives, monitors?

Yes yes, I'm searching pricewatch. 
Mapping 
It's like architecture plus interior decorating, but with more dead bodies. 
Nb 
and more crates 
Here's The Current PC-parts List 
Please give me your thoughts on this list based upon what you know of the reliability, etc (not your personal opinion):

I need to go sleep for work now zZzzz

Thanks 
Suggests.. 
avoiding ebuyer.com as you get your parts late and with possibility of damage. DABS on the other hand are very good.

Whatever you do, don't skimp on your motherboard, get a decent one. 
I'm A Coder 
When people ask what coding's like, I tell them I weild absolute control over an entire game universe. Every faucet of its so-called "reality" is in my merciful hands.

This, notably, is not true, as I do run up against limitations, and I'm not as good as I'd like to be. But it does sound reeeal goood at a job interview (i.e. "Wow! You're hired!"). ;)

If only I were all-powerful in reality.

Reminds me of another Hitchhiker's Guide quote:
"In summary, anyone capable of obtaining absolute power is the least suited to have it. In summary to the summary, people are a problem".
(or more or less like that) 
... 
Every faucet?
