Quote from: Guybrush Peepwood on Sun 21/08/2005 19:12:41Why do I still see no flags?

Are you in flag adding mode? Have you zoomed in enough?

If both checks turn a negative result, then you probably just suck ._.

Zooming to over the half makes the map x'ed out, so...

But anyway, Dizzy Dancer, I feel stupid for not saying it before, but welcome!

Also there is a world map of AGS. You can see how many people there are in some parts of the world.

Really? I don't see any usernames or flags on this map... :-


You need to zoom in (about half of the zoom level) to see the usernames and flags.

Why do I still see no flags?

Critics' Lounge / Re: My First PSP Image!

The only problem is that he posted in General Discussions instead of the Critics Lounge... Other than that, I don't think anyone is justified by mocking Flukeblake. I've seen way worse pictures in CL, drawn from people older than him.

I think the picture is blurry (that seems to be a problem with anyone starting PSP) and the high grass looks like it's coming from nowhere, it would look better if you didn't have the tall parts. And it is empty indeed, try putting some mountains and clouds on the back.

There's not much to criticize because it's only a sketch. In case you intended all buildings to be cylindrical, then the laundry building and the one far don't look like one, you might have intended it this way though.

Maybe it has something to do with software piracy

I heard that someone was gonna die in the 5th book before it even came out (I heard Rowling said it herself) and I guessed it would be Dumbledore. The same goes for the 6th book only this time it was Dumbledore. I don't think anyone would get it on his own, but when people heard someone was gonna die they went like "Dumbledore!" (including me :-[)

Someone who downloads the mod online can just as easily download pr0n. If people want to see nudity they don't have to download a stupid mod, they can more easily google for real pics. Oh noes let's ban teh internet!

A quote from a different forum:
I read an article this morning that said a grandmother was going to sue because SHE bought the game for her 14 yr old grandson and was offended by the content. What exactly did she think the M rating meant?

But anyway, I don't think AGS did something for me. I started making an adventure game, I did all the major programming and stuff but the guy who was supposed to make the art found out he couldn't do it after all, and I quit. I just come here to the forums, that's all

I preferred the first two than the third as well. I don't like the movies as much as the books, but I'm still gonna watch them all. The third had some parts that were very lamely done, such as the aunt Marge and the Boggart scenes... But the dementors were awesome.

I heard that the fourth movie is so far the most expensive production ever. That's only what I heard and I don't bother checking if it's true. I hope it's a good one, and I really hope the cemetery scene will be as it's described in the book (which is not kid friendly at all). I saw the teaser though, and those Mermaids are screaming "hey look, I'm made in Maya"

I really love the backround, especially the edit. But I'm not sure if I like the fog that much, maybe it stands out more than it should be.

Well, this forum is supposed to here to improve your current art. Create a cave as good as you can, and we'll help you improve it :)

Quote- What's the go with the Zabini kid? At the beginning of the book, he looks like he's going to play a part, but then he suddenly disappears from the plot.
Agreed. But maybe he'll take an important part next book
Quote- The same goes for McLaggen, although he hangs around a bit longer.
McLaggen was mentioned in the previous book, if I'm right. But this is not the point, I think McLaggen was there only to help the Ron/Hermione romance (he was used twice for that, once because Hermione jinxed him to help Ron out and the second time she asked him out to make Ron jealous)
Quote- Dobby and Kreacher report to Harry Potter only once, then, when I expected them to come back, they also disappear.
Dumbledore told Harry to focus more about getting the memory out of Slughorn, therefore Harry stopped following Malfoy around.
Quote- Why does Slughorn stop throwing parties all of a sudden?
Probably to avoid Harry and prevent him from getting the memory? Harry noticed that as well. The mentioning of Cruxthingies seems to be traumatic to him
Quote- What happens with the Death Eaters at the end?
Those who did not escape got probably arrested.
Quote- Not to mention the whole thing with the false Horcrux and all that.
Having read 6 books so far, it's very logical to assume that it will be explained - and probably take a significant role - in the next book.

I also think the romance was overdone, but it had to be there anyways; if she left it out it would be worse, since most characters are teenagers and there's bound to be romance. Rowling said that Neville and Luna will never love each other like that, btw.

I believe that Greyback and Scrimgeour will take a bigger role next book. One character I didn't like was Slughorn, I thought his club was a bit lame.

As for the mirror, it keeps bothering me. Instead of making Harry forget the mirror existed she could just say that he tried it out but he left it in his bedroom or something so Sirius couldn't answer.

There's a lot of evidence that the Snape twist exists, but I'm still not convinced he's good. But I do agree that there are a lot of people claim things that are simply way too much. For example:

- Dumbledore and McGonagall are Harry and Hermione from the future
- Dumbledore is Harry's grandaddy
- Ron's dad or Harry Potter is going to be the next Minister of Magic
- Malfoy and Hermione are going to fall in love
- Some others (some of them even weirder) I can't think of right now

Rowling replied to these rumours with "you watch too much Star Wars"

timbre and predominating scales? I googled it but I couldn't find anything, can anyone tell me how these work?

Fri 22/07/2005 20:03:53
I don't think there's a definite line, but one thing that's sure is that loud or heavy does not necessarily equal metal. As for Marilyn Manson, I only heard his Sweet Dreams cover and it kinda sounded like metal to me

No, it does matter. In the previous book, it was important that Harry seals himself from Voldemord so that he won't be used or something. Harry didn't make any progress in Occlumency and so in the end Voldemord interfered in Harry's dream to lure him into the Department of Mysteries
