Well… I don’t know… Someone idolizing you would be kind-a weird though… Especcially other guys eh?

_lol_

But anyways… Yeah… You could make it like a walking around type town… If I could only get a decent server socket up and running I’d be like… Chatroom like Habbo Hotel _lmao_

Peace

no not really. All options including the amount of sensitivity are completely controlable. With the Wacom mouse I could probebly draw pixel art at 1500 by 1200 100% 😏

I know. I’m still in gloating period. 😛

The motherboard and chip though… it’s gonna top the whole frickin package together. 4 drive raid array, 16, mhz with a 7200 front side bus.

::::shudder::::

and most of it at half price thanks to my company.

(message of humbling intent) Yes everyone, I count myself very lucky to have what I do. Sometimes though, I’d give up almost everything for some of the smarts you guys have. 🙂

If you have an old comp you want to just give away, let me know :beam:

I don’t have any of that, but I would take it to have the smarts you have 🙂

That makes no sense, yeah…no, yeah, wait no, ok, sure, uh huh, yep, tis true.

(keeping in mind also that I got no movies this year… no Playstation II’s, no Xbox’s, and the Intuous was pretty much the only thing Laurie got me for Xmass. She’s a wonderful Fiance.

I think this is a marvelous idea, but the more I think about it, I think we should pull this idea into the Council and cut it up as a project with committed members…

is this good advice?  
pj 😛 \*\*

you know Phil…after you scared me with all this talk about how the Secret Council watches my every move and the moves of everyone everywhere anywhere in this forum …i’m not so sure it is a good idea… 😛 lol j/k i think its an excellent idea

you know… it’s not entirely necessary to run this on a socket server. The updating doesn’t have to be real time.

Umm… I think it would nearly have to be…

If there were multiple people on the same townscape… Then you’d have to know each one of their positions so that you could move them…

Unfortunately…

_lol_

The updates, even non-realtime are still fairly quick with server side php. I have some ideas I’m working on now that might be encorporated into such a project. I’m going to think about the alternatives first anyway. Socket servers are pricey.

Socket Servers… Depends on what you emna by that…

When I was syaing about that I meant… me making a Visual BAsic Script to handle sockets and then using someone with cbale or something to handle it… Since there aren’t TOO many people on kirupa… As in thosaunds… it should be okay…

Peace Out

Phil: Yees yes, I saw it the first time 😛 Maybe I SHOULD take this up with the rest of the council… I just don’t wanna be the project leader, rather the supervisor… =)

To playmarz:

My initial idea wa to only throw some blocks of dirt in your faces and let you all build something pixel’ish, and then I’d assemble the whole thing into a bigger picture, and put it up here, just for fun 🙂

But the idea of having users actually moving around in the city… whoa… I’m definitely up for it, no questions there, BUT…

Then we’d also need premade blocks of ground with roads on it, plan a map of the city and slice it up, jack it into some code, and then active members can come in and reserve a piece of land. May it be right next to a road, or not… And of course we need a chat thingy then, AFTER the city is built. So I have a character, I walk around, see phil, slap him with a trout, and runs like hell… k?? 😛

And of course, whenever a member reaches, say, 500 posts in the forum, he gets a chunk of land to add to the city 🙂 But only ONE chunk per member…!!

Any other additions guys? :beam:
