Greetings, ya hump? Nevermind…BIG SHIT IS HAPPENING!!! First off, we are all being granted patches for our favorite MODs. In this week, we saw the Half-Life/TFC v1106, the CStrike v1.1, and Infiltration v2.85 patches. Quelog has mentioned an FA patch soon, as well. The HL/TFC patch may mean Snake is going to put his /TFC back on the Hard Drive and start fragging once more on the battlefields of Team Fortress. That is, of course, if I can manage to stop playing INF. If I can find a free server today, I’ll see if Infiltration has what it takes to be a good Multiplayer experience. I’ll probably just get my ass kicked hard by a bunch of LPB lowlife, but it’s all good with the bots. Except this new bullshittin’ friendly fire that can’t be disabled. If you’re low on health, make certain to frag team members nearby before they frag you.

Second item of news is COOL SHIT ON THE SITE!!! Since the last news update, I’ve redone most of the Photo Album and Staff Page with a nifty “browser-in-browser” javascript. It’s a little more functional over a frame and can be placed anywhere. The downside is it has limited customizability and is only compatible with IE (recommended use with 5.0).

Third news is MOD DRIVE!!! I got a new very old HDD a few days ago. It has a huge storage amount of 260MB (yes, it is possible to have a hard drive with less than a gigabyte, lamers). Anyways, it was just perfect for putting my MODs on, there’s only 12MB free. Just for laughs, here are some specs: 3800RPM, 64KB buffer, and 30ms access time. It takes about 5 seconds to load Out of the Blue (by Acumen), but it makes a cool clicking noise; sounds like a CD changer when it changes CDs. There’s a pic below, as well as some links to good sites to download the patches from.

Patches:
CounterStrike v1.1 (non-retail patch) – 19.52MB
CounterStrike v1.1 (non-retail FULL) – 87.3MB
Half-Life/TFC v1106 (patch 1104) – 11.41MB
Infiltration v2.85 FULL – 53.48MB
Infiltration v2.85 FULL – 53.48MB
Infiltration v2.85 Maps – 61.42MB

Ok, all the Photo Album stuff is cleared up now, and Que updated the Columns index. I’m moving along rapidly in my Eagle project, step 1 of my new agenda.

The big news of the day is that, as Snake informed me in Keyboarding today, our March column will be about LPBs. Yes, Low-Ping Bastards in games. We will each write our opinions on how ping and LPBs (with not much of it) can totally change the gaming industry.

Well, I put together a working Photo Album subframe system on the site (just click Photo Album on the left Navigation frame), but when I woke up, it wasn’t working. Snake didn’t download nav.html before he added that new gay shit he put up on it [WM Note: You also made it so the News page, POTM, Clan, and Columns didn’t work on the new applet], AND when I tried to access index2, it said I was “forbidden to access”. Plus, our site takes way to long to load- almost as long as planethalflife. SNAKE- QUIT FUCKING WITH THE SITE!

Damn, this was the weirdest-ass week I’ve had in a while…not necessarily good or bad…but different. Today especially, for once I enjoyed English (with ToadBitch [AKA: Ms. Horner]), in Biology we actually were made to get in groups (meaning Loog and I couldn’t bullshit the lab and talk about CS), we had our first bomb threat of the entire school year during third, and I’m still tired after 13 hours of sleep last night. Freaky shit. Oh, and where the fuck is everyone? Snake’s a horndog and needs to talk to the opposite sex!!! (boing! Ty got on, speak of the devil).

There’s been a lot of school violence shit going on lately, shit in California, Pennsylvania… So, here’s S&L’s offical standing:
You mount the woman!

No, that’s not it, this is:

You stupid mother fuckers! Play DOOM!!! Only dumbass fucking shitsuckers go in and kill people at school; there are consequences fools! Doom is the most basic killing game ever, the rampage levels exceed anything I’ve ever played (apart from some UT). Play Doom after a bad day at school, make a map of your school, make skins of your hated teachers/administrators, import real world guns…but, don’t get your whole life dicked over by going into your school with a weapon and at most firing it.
Sure, some people think the total opposite, that Doom will make you want to kill in the real world. Ignore the urge, play more Doom! If it gets boring (you can play with your eyes closed), get Doom2, get UT, get SoF, get anything! I can’t tell you how relieving it is to name a bot after your band teacher in UT and then proceed to frag him, again and again and again. That’s all, frag on, psychos!

Ok, it’s late…so, I’m gonna be quick. First off, notice my navigation masterpiece over in the left frame. It took me about 4 hours to do that, but it works great (sometimes it will lag IE for me, though, only for a few seconds). I also added some eye candy to MOD.html, very swooby! Loog and I redid the DEMOBOARD to be a little more efficient. It’s not original, but it was easy to create and works flawless. Check it out.

Finally, I removed the previous rankpeople.com project, since Kat had not gotten any votes for 360min. The Dork Project is now in its place. That should be interesting. If you weren’t watching, here’s how the “Deathmatch of Looks” Experiment finished:

Kat: 6.7 (4160 votes)
Tyler: 7.34 (5217 votes)

Dude! I just went to puter.net’s website, and it rocks! puter.net is course the set of servers I play on for CS. Their site is http://cstrike.puter.net. It lists weapon ranks, time on servers, and a list of the top 200 players for all 5 of their servers (yes, I just realized that there’s a 5th one: 63.78.15.19- but it’s only for veterans). I was looking around, and I actually won a couple of awards! I have the longest playing time on 2 of the servers (like 2 days total for each), and I also have the most Fabrique Nationale p90 kills on 2 servers! Like 100 or something. Rock!!!
