I didn't play all of it. And also I was joking.

Nifty!
This marks the first time in AGS history that someone used the SetCharacterTransparency function

The type of people who would pirate a game generally aren't the type who pay for it if a pirated copy wasn't available. The type of people who pay for it generally aren't the type who would seek out a pirated copy. Either way LucasArts is making the same amount of money off their old games: Not a lot.

Also, the mistake on the page was fixed.

Yeah yeah, blah blah. Satanists are a bunch of selfish fucks, etc.

Let's get back on the designated topic: Ass Projection.

I really truly think if something like that happened in season 3 you'd think it was "classic".
The viewers have changed more than the show.

And also, I seem to remember that I only really joined the forums after Yahtzee left. But I could be wrong.
In any case, welcome to AGSforums, person registered as Yahtzee.

The first one's almost right. You came up a little short on everything, including the " "s.
0 = 1

Could be a false Yahtzee. Then again, looking at the profile... Who else could possibly know that Yahtzee speaks English? It must be him.

Ok, I got past that one with a little help. The next level... I was confused for a while until I noticed a mistake on the page, dunno if it was intended. Then I figured out what the password for the next level was (that was ingenious btw)... Now I'm at a grid sort of thing. I know what it does, and I got some numbers and a word out of it, but I don't know what to do with them.

Ya know, back in the internet's Glory Days*, people weren't compelled to complain so much.


*for future reference, Glory Days inevitably means the past.

All of those examples were funny, though. The first example was different, of course, but I can accept both levels of humor easily.

Sounds exciting! This is the sort of thing I wish I could do, actually. I've always wanted to have a lucid dream or something. I've actually had dreams about having lucid dreams (although not lucidly.)
Once I thought I was going into a sort of projection/lucid dream or something, but it turned out I was just hyperventilating.

Me neither. This is what I got from the # thingy, using Archangel's hint:

Whaaaa???

Same thing.
Actually, my registered date on the old exboard seems to be only a day after yours. Which means nothing, I guess.

Yeah, but are you expecting not to giggle? It can be a self-fulfilling prophecy of sorts, if you tune in thinking "well... this is gonna suck".

I hate being a perpetual newbie. I don't get to do nobody.

I think the fact that people are growing up is part of it. In the Simpsons "heyday" you were all younger and more impressionable, and probably less cynical. The difference between old things and new things gets exaggerated as you grow up. How else can you explain people who think the original Star Wars movies were gifts from God?
Also, I think that most people who dislike the current Simpsons only "noticed" they didn't like the new episodes after seeing someone complain about the show on the internet. I'm sure each one of you can explain why you don't like the show because it's lost touch with what once made it great and blah blah blah-- I don't care. On the grand scale, there's a lot of copycat behavior going on, whether you realize or not.
If someone who's never seen the Simpsons were to watch every episode in reverse order, what do you think they would think of the "decline"? They would probably think the Michael Jackson episode was dated, for one thing...

This is quite nifty. Although I'm disappointed there aren't more games listed.

YES I WAS MAKING JOKE HA HA
Anyway, I just think it's really silly analyzing the Simpsons like this. If you can let yourself enjoy it, then go ahead. If you can enjoy different shows for different reasons, then you can enjoy this show for different reasons than the older episodes. There's not really much you can gain by being over-cynical about a cartoon.
