I just bought a DS, and I'm buying a Wii. If my past console purchases are any indication, Nintendo will be out of the console business in two years tops

last night, I joined bluecrimson to three other webrings.
Apparently, the new webring code only shows one on the site and lets you click on a link to see the other webrings. That, and now they limit you to 5 webrings now.

Color wise, currently we are using the eblah default skin, which so far works pretty good since it is somewhat blue colored. There is an actual bluecrimson color, but it's really dark bluish purple, which would be too dark I believe. it may change down the line. If anything gets aded in the short term however, it would be a title banner. As it stands right now, the link banner from my old site will probably not make an appearance since it was pretty much sites that most people know about by now (ticalc.org, calc.org ETC). The E-blah portal is something totally new for the forum, and mods have been slow so far. There could be an affilates portal module coming soon, since most portals have something like that. Right now, i'm polling the e-balh module forum to see if anyone's got something like that for the portal, but it looks like I may have to relearn perl at some point.   Currently, the Ti-basic webring is there. I'm also thinking about joining it to the other Ti rings as well down the line, and I'm thinking of adding a links board to the forum soon.

When calc.org was looking like it was going down for awile, me and Hiryu decided that we were going to merge both of our sites into one large site, and merge our development officially into one programming group instead of two separate groups like we have done in the past. Since then, calc.org went down as well as both of our sites disappeared, (I should say technically disappeared. I guess they talk about water guns now, which ironicially is something else I used to be interested in) but after month's of being off the net, we're back with our new site and our new domain name. The new site can be found at http://www.bluecrimson.com At this point it's still a work in progress, but I think it's relatively stable enough to allow people to register and post on the site, since this time instead of using static pages, we decided to go with a more dynamic portal approach so we and update more frequently and have better community interaction. The old sites are going to be archived, and the new site will eventually take over for them as we slowly get up to speed, fix forum bugs and get the site looking the way we want it to look. At this point in time, I'm looking for more members to stress test the board so we can work out issues with the new forum we're using as our main site. In particular, login issues, posting issues and the chat room system need extensive testing and debugging.

Yeah, that was back in the day when calc.org didn't suck.

I know it's been awile since I last posted on the thread, but I might as well add to what I posted before. Hiryu's got another gallery page up now. It's mostly for his Ragnarok guild drawings, but it gives you an idea how his new drawings look vs his old stuff. http://geocities.com/wren_dragonlord/

itmom is still gone. itmon is a different site than itmom, of course if I said itmon at some point it wouldn't surprise me. it took me awile to realize it myself.
On another note, calc.org is pulling up a 403, and it looks like it's moved nameservers to starlogic.com. at least thats a good sign. Hopefully they continue hosting the sites they had.

the entire site was actually on calc.org, it just had mirrors since it was going down all the time. This is nothing new for calc.org. it would go away for weeks or even months. I think it had something like 2 hard drive crashes within 5 months one year.
Right now, its a debate whether to switchover to adelphia for now, or start bluecrimson on tollfreepage and get the ball rolling. I'm gonna wait awile and see what happens with calc.org and for Hiryu to get back from his business trip before making the final decision. For one, We still need to get a domain name, and second get hosting that actually allows us to do more powerful stuff with it. 100webspace (what tollfreepage actually is called) has some pretty good hosting plans so we might end up staying there and moving over to the eblah CMS, although I was waiting for the new verision coming out soon, which adds a lot more features to eblah.

well, the tollfreepage site is more or less a test platform anyway, even if it did go away it really wouldn't hurt us much.
My site has a complete backup, on my machine, on tollfreepage and on the adelphia.net mirror. I wouldn't even need the mirror if this wasn't a normal day at calc.org. At least itmom was better than that cobalt RAQ or whatever they had that kept crashing every other day.

From what I'm seeing so far, Calc.org isn't dead as much as itmom.com is, which is their provider.
My guess is the company finally went belly up, but other than specualtion I have no idea. It's been down for almost a week now.
This pretty much is going to make us have to move faster on me and Hiryu's relocation plans. We were going to wait on in since he just moved into a new place, and it looked like calc.org was starting to go somewhere. Apparently that wasn't a great move on our part.
Pretty much, i'd like to see a calc.org staff member give us some details on whats going on, since I'm all but convinced their going to have to look for a new host.

# (Indirection) and Expr( are your best friends on the 89, but in this case Expr( is. basicially... c1--> | CODE | ec1
If (tilenumber) != 0
expr("run"&string(tilenumber)&"()")
c2 |
ec2
if tilenumber = 5, the expr command will execute run5. 6 will execute run6, ETC. if you put a variable between the "()" (say Tilenumber for example) it will send that variable to the program, so if tilenumber was 6, it would be execute run6(6).

Yeah. Me and a couple of friends tried to get Hiryu to draw a webcomic. still no luck there. He had a paper comic somewhere that had something to do with Mystic Legend a few years back. haven't seen it for years now. That one would probably be more frendly than most of the punisher stuff. Here's an actual pic from the punisher comic that I can show you guys. Keep in mind this is circa 1993-4 and wasn't even drawn that well for his skill back then. He draws a lot better than this now. Also, this is everyone in the game. The guy with the Shades is Image before he got the impact suit. You can compare them to what they look like now from my sig picture.  Also. One of Hiryu's old gallery sites that actually works. http://www.geocities.com/hiryu_rhys/gal4.html

I'm not much of an artist myself calc wise. I did a lot of CS sprays for [SmD] Members and do a lot of the grayscaling that you see in my grayscale demos but thats about it. Hiryu on the other hand does most of the artwork for a lot of the games he and I made. There's a ton of Legend of Landel samples at http://fryedsoft.calc.org/rants/reasons.htm Also Keep in mind that these are old and there's a lot more now. http://hiryu.calc.org has some more pics of games. http://www.geocities.com/hiryu_rhys/ has a ton of old stuff too, but a lot of the links are outdated since geocities changed their layout. if you remove the ~ in the links on the site they should work. This is one of his old pictures of Sephiroth he drew back in 97 from the geocities site...  He also made the picture used in my sig. Although I grayscaled it using a method I'm testing right now.

I used to play CS a lot. When [SmD] was still around, I was the head admin for the CS server ([SmD] Anarchy Server) and ran the forum for the website.
Anymore, all I play is COH/COV.
