(I found this SC2 map once with its own ai and the enemy had about 750 units: the best from each of all three races, but it just sat in the middle until I attacked it. so I spent about an hour skirting around the map gathering ALL the resources, setting up a massive nydus network and cover the place with creep tumors for fast travel. Then i started spitting out all the corrupters i could afford with my vespene to take out all the air. took several batches)

enter the lings:

then i put all my hatcheries spitting out zerglings as fast as possible with rally points to the nyduses. it took good 5 minutes to unload them all (!), but they MURDERED the ai. sadly, the replay crashed when i tried to watch it! oh well

There is a similar extension for google chrome. its really funny when you go to a site like nibbits.com and there's a big box on the top that says "WHAT HAS A BANNER EVER DONE TO YOU? Suppot Nibbits, Disable AdBlock!" Just out of curiosity, does the ad blocking also prevent the site from getting revenue?

my name is 100% random. quasi of course means 'sort of', and phthalo is short for phthalocyanine blue or green dye. i thought it sounded cool

For me, it's really weird because I've hit the age where my face is changing into it's adult shape, so sometimes it catches me off guard when I, say, get out of the shower and see a flash of what I might look like in 10 or 15 years. That's freaky. The other weird thing is when you try (and fail) to see what your eyes would look like to someone at whom you aren't looking directly at.

I had found UnitedTI first, then someone recently posted that things are significantly slower (meaning less activity) there than at Omnimaga. "Omnimaga??", I thought to myself, "I must find this place!" So, today, here I am for the first time!

what i find as a very annoying dilemma is that with one byte, you can have up to 9 level grayscale:
00000000
00000001
00010001
00100101
01010101
11011010
11101110
11111110
11111111

If you wanted to conserve space and keep one pixel in 3 bits, i.e., 8 pixels in 3 bytes, you have to leave one of the levels out...so, which one?
