I have some south american neighbours in the below storey who like to play loud "bachata" music all the time. Bachata is specially annoying if you don´t like it, because, as some music that you don´t like can´t "hurt" you, this melodies are fu*ing repeatitive and use a lot of strill sounds made by steel instruments (and I´m not talking of the mild and lovely steel drum used by jamaican musician, no...)

But the problem is not how crappy the music is, because it is a matter of anyone taste, I mean, they can hear me listening my beatles and think "How crap is the music that boy hears..." The problem is the volume.

There´s no need to put it loud... If you want to feel like in the opera, use headphones, for the God Shake! It is a matter of education, specially at late hours...

Jack... I feel like you...  :'(

Tiny silly spaniard... :P

I believe that the phrase you meant to use was, "Tiny-willied Spaniard." You might want to consider replacing the word, "Spaniard."  Not many United Statesmen will know what that means.  I suggest using, "Spic."

My willy is average, thanks.  :)

This is a very sensitive matter... I don´t hate fat people, nobody here does, sure, but an extreme obesity can be a serious health problem and bring insecurities to the fat people.

I am not saying that the fat AGSers are insecure, so, there´s no need to people replying "I´m fat and I feel ok" but a lot of people with overweight have it.

Being fat means not fitting in the nowadays beauty standard. Is it fair? No... Could us do something to change it? Sure... But it´s  true.  :-\

Edit: The funny thing is that, being quite slim, I was quite fat when I was a kid and I feel able to feel both positions... So, if you wanna talk of fat, talk to Nacho...  :)

A baby is born, but this is not a normal baby... his face is angry... suddenly, the baby talks, deeply annoyed:
-Where is my father? >:(
-Shit! A baby who talks  :o(Says the doctor...) Come on, bring his father!

The father is taken to the room... the baby suddenly starts to punch his head with his little hands repeteadly, and says:

-Is it annoying, isn´t it, motherfucker??? ;D

Stupid babies, all they ever do is cry and keep you up. Well, it no longer has to be like that! It' stime to strkie back and here is what you do:

Get your stereo, and if you don't have a stereo, plug speakers into your CD player, or just use your computer with speakers.

Find the most anti-baby song you have.

Turn the speakers on maximum.

Turn speakers towards baby.

PLAY!!!!

They keep you up, keep them up.


??? ??? ??? Why??? Poor babies... You´re cruel sometimes...

No, Peter, I won´t never accuse genious like Lucas and Ron Gilbert of plagiarism, of course...  :)

(And I said Ron Gilbert because Monkey Island has some of the main shoots of the modern epic tale storyline, IMO... ;))

But some of the main arguments are similar... The goal is that they introduce little changes that give deep to the chartacter and make them totally different.

Frodo could have been Bilbo´s son... his orphanity (sp?) has not a lot to see with the history. The death of Luke´s aunts is crucial in his history, and the past of his father will be revealed as a VERY IMPORTANT fact :), Harry Potter has been trated awfully by his aunts... They´re variations of the same concept..., they´re orphans who have grown with his aunts.

I just wanted to express my admiration for this creators, and point the similarities, I never intended to say "They suck!!11! They´re making the same history again and again...!!1!"  :)

I think that the clone is ProMotion4.0... PM to me if you want a copy (And if it is legal to share that files... :-X)

You can also be a good boy/girl and buy the light version - it's not that expensive:

Sure Miez... That´s why I asked of the legality of spreading the program... BTW... do you know it? I´ve been told that it can do as much gradients as we can see in many of the lucas´oldies...

Which I must be to Gilbert.

I am not a newbie... I am a n00b1!11! ;D

That´s your oppinion, and we can go on the discussion with that... But I don´t see it as a "definitive" reply.

The questions are clear: Why orphans? I think that since the Grimm bross compiled their tales everybody is killing some (Or both) of the parents of the hero... Poor hero! Relationship between heroes and their parents are a world to explore, IMO (I.E. Indy 3)

There are some other examples... the wise old master who teaches the hero is becoming old fashioned, in fact, I think it was in the first low Middle Age revisiting of King Arthur´s history when that character was born in the shape of Merlin (and yes, I know that the first mentions of Merlin were made in VIth century by Gildas, but Merlin was not mentioned till the "Y Goddodin" in the XIIth century, ok? :P) This character could be changed, or even avoided, don´t you think so?

I am not talking of inventing totally new histories... but some sort of. Do you remember "Die Hard"? It was about a man facing terrorists in a big skycrapper... Well, let´s change the skycrapper for a warship, a plane, an airport, a bus... And you have material for doing films during the next 10 years. When the material is over... think in something else.

That´s what  I was talking about. the classical modern adventure tale is close to its end, I think.

General Discussion / Screen recorder?
Wed 21/01/2004 13:08:59
Hello... I just wandering if there is some free screen recorder available to download for free. What I exactly mean is that program in which you click on "rec" and everything you see in your monitor is recorded. I´ve seen some, but there are trial versions and I can´t use them because they´re intentionally blured(I want to create an avi from a WWII fighters game to use it as a cutscene in a game).

And, ah... Camtasia does not work for me as I own Win98, and it needs 2000 or XP...

Michael Chrichton said once that when he was younger he believed that he was the best writer ever. Nowadays he thinks that he is just average, and everyday he learn something new, even he sees a lot of mistakes when he reads again his first books.

And that´s true. There are two ways to learn, by commiting mistakes and redoing, or by learning the basis from a very start (and adding something new after, if you´re talented enough).

I attempted to write something when I was in high school, my literature teacher was quite happy about the result, but he gave some tips... When he finished, I realised that all was bad, the paragraph were too big, I took no attention to the rythim, and I went too fast to the action without giving deep to the plot and character to the characters.

I finally rewrote the narration and I won a quite important local literature contest.

Breaking rules is cool when they are old fashioned and restrict the creativity of the new generations of creators, but we can´t confuss this with making bad creations. DG and Ryu can be both right, as they can be talking of "different" rules, IMO.

Well, it pisses me off, when people tell me that poker is gambling. And that poker is about luck.

Because THEY ARE WRONG! I'm a poker player, and I tell them ofcourse that there is skill involved and that's it's not just about luck. THAT PISSES ME OFF!!! I read 4 books about poker, and they haven't and they think they can tell me what's right... AAARRGGGHH!!!

It can´ be luck, as, from an initial group or 400 players, every year the same 4 or 5 guys reach the final of the Poker World Series in Las Vegas.

I think every newbie asks this ::). But, no problem, as my favourite adventure game changes depending on my emotional state... When I saw POTC it was MI2, now, with my Indy DVD colection, I think I can say, Indy 3"...

I didn´t noticed you had that kind of problems with the community... Do you remember that post when you asked us to say something nice to you and your girlfriend for your anniversary? I think everybody was nice :)... Nah, Dr. Hide, there´s no need to apology, no one of us is perfect (except La Lore, of course... ;D)

Don´t worry about us attacking the others´throad... That´s cyclical (sp?) soon all will become normal... I hope.  ;)
