Tao as in Tame.
The tournament is the start. Any more, and it will ruin the story. ;-) It will be an RPG. I should get screenshots when I finish the battle engine, but it heavily uses another part of the game.
This will be in ASM.

So, for those of you who have seen my old profile logo (It has changed), you might have wondered, "What is TAO: Unleashed?" Well, this is the answer. The most epic game that might ever hit the TI world. Okay, with more humility, and a more probable outcome, TAO is a game based around the concept of TAO. Confused? Just google TAO and look at the images. You'll see a weird little circle with two halves. One black, the other white. Go ahead and google it now, I'll wait.
Enjoyed the fancy pics? Excellent! Now that is TAO, what is "unleashed"? Well for that, we get to the story. The game is about two characters. There names are Raito and Kurai. Raito means light, Kurai means dark. That is why it is tao. You have both characters in there, that are the direct opposite of each others. Raito is a prince who is destined to be king after his father, the previous king, died.
So, there has to be a way to decide who the next king will be. There is a tournament held every year to decide who the strongest fighter is. This year, the strongest fighter will be crowned king. Everyone thinks that Raito is most certainly going to win. Okay, so this is where you actually get to start playing as Raito. You have to fight in the tournament against many different people. Everyone watches Raito's match, but none of the others. Raito has one more fight left, and along comes a very week looking guy called Kurai. The crowd assumes Raito is going to win, as Kurai has barely any HP left at all. When suddenly, bam! Kurai transforms into the beast sealed within him. He attacks Raito with a menacing blast, that almost kills Raito! Raito transforms too, and they attack each other at the same time! The fight is over? Who won? No one will ever know.
So, that's the unleashed part of it, as you can imagine. Oh, and there's another main character, who is the sage for the king. After the king died, he basically kept the kingdom from falling apart. He is much too old to be in the fight, though, so he wants Raito to win. I have no idea when this massive game might be finished. Just know that I have plenty of other things to do, so it might take time. But I seriously want to get this project done! Also, know, that what I put above is not everything that is in the game. There is much much more.
So, tell me what you think!

My new logo might also be overboard... Check it out!

Hey, good luck with IRL, or whatever it is. I truly hope it ends well.

It's because we have a contract with them. It's the same company that licenses the rickastley special, and paints the lobsters blue and pink. They're really cheep too. I would suggest to stop using the limeted edition, though, as they are starting to become >9000 in number.
Well, anyway, welcome.

- People who don't RTFM
- Putting dirty dishes in the sink despite the fact the dishwasher is empty.
- Not washing large amounts of food waste off of plates before leaving them in the sink when the dishwasher is full.
- Calling me "Tsukasa-chan", "Subaru-chan", or any other "affectionate" name.
- People who don't give me free cake and calculators j/k 
- Assuming I'm playing a game just because I hold my calculator like a gameboy (two handed) as opposed to leaving it on the desk and typing with one hand.
- Guilty - Guilty - Guilty - Not-guilty Tsukasa-sama. - Guilty - Ya know, I don't like that either. Especially because I can type quickly, so it looks like I'm playing a game.

It depends. last time I tried doing that it seemed to mess some other things up. However, I was still not that experienced in SMF. It may just take quite a bit before I do it, since I work all weekend and don't do much forum management stuff on work days.
That's fine. It's not really necessary, just curious if it was possible. Anyway, thanks.

Ah ok. As for mods that might become handy in the future. I would like to at least set permissions for specific project authors so they can sticky/unsticky/unlock/edit polls so it is easier for non-staff to manage (as well as giving less work on actual staff)
Yep. Anyway, how complicated is that?

Well first of all, nobody voted 192x168, because there is no 192x168 option in the poll. Also, what this resolution in particular have to do with TI compatibility? No TI-BASIC compatibility is even planned in the first place. All that matters is having a not expensive screen, easy on the processor for the platform but large enough to allow more text at once while still keeping it easy to read.
Also, remember the larger the screen, the longer it takes to update.
94x64 = 6144 pixels
192x128 = 24576
240x160 = 38400 (about 1.5x slower than the previous res.)
320x240 = 76800 (now you know why Nspire raycaster isn't much more faster than it is despite running at 150 MHz)
That said, I voted for 240x160, because it seems more like a generic resolution, while not being overly large.
I think you are jumping on people who voted otherwise here just because they have a different opinion than you. If you didn't want people to vote that, then why did you kept the option included in the poll in the first place? Sorry, but while you improved a lot since the TIBD/UTI incidents in 2009, unlike a few others, on the point of respecting other people opinions and not imposing yours on them you still have a long way to go. Sorry for being rude but I don't tolerate posts like the above on the forums. At least Matthias1992 stopped doing those.
See, that's why I talk to alberthro. Also, I don't jump on people because of their choices. I actually would choose 192x128. (typo in the other post) Alberthro just explained a little better that there would be no TI code on the calc. That was what I was afraid of, you see. But with on on-computer converter, that is a lot better. I just wanted to make sure that people weren't expecting to run TI-basic directly on their calc. Anyway, I was about to retract the post because alberthro explained it better. Also, I don't have the ability to edit this poll. That's probably because me and alberthro don't have mod status in the ot forum. meh... Oh well. I hint well, don't I? lol. but yeah, I just didn't want to have TI code on OT type thing.

[[Post retracted because I obviously did not convey what I meant to say well enough, and it was unnecessary]]
Post retracted by: graphmastur. I actually intended to retract it before DJ gave that notice, btw. Alberthro explained it slightly better. I was concerned about having TI code on the OT calc, but it's all good now. ;-)

I'll be gone that day, but I think that omnombot could post it hourly that day. Since I can't that is.

Well, now, that depends on the class size. In a small class, that's possible. But it's a fine line between cheating and not. I will usually do a few problems with work, to show I understand and know the concept, then do the rest usually without it.
My pet peeves:
1. The showing work thing.
2. When people don't drive the speed limit.
3. When people automatically assume you don't have a clue what you are talking about, and say that you are wrong repeatedly. The only time this is not a pet peeve, is when it is in math class. Then, when they are wrong, it is wrong. period. So, I can just sit back and watch until they figure it out. ;-)
4. When people are really arrogant. (Honestly, the reason that this is a pet peeve, is because I do it too sometimes, and I don't like to. So I am trying to stop.)
