So

Post by MarauderIIC »

So I wrote about alpha-beta pruning so that I could post the basic concepts to the programming forum and relate it to tic-tac-toe in a clear, concise, easy-to-understand way.

But I took so long writing it that phpBB logged me out.
And so I entered my user name & password to post and it just put me back at the posting form.



Which was empty.
... arg. Sorry, guys =(
I realized the moment I fell into the fissure that the book would not be destroyed as I had planned.

Damn that sucks. When that happens to me going back one page usually does the trick, cause firefox stores it in cache.

I\'ve been there myself, if its a really long post that I care enough about, I\'ll type it out in notepad or something first.

Dear god, they actually ported ES to a piece of celery!
