If you honestly cannot think of a single way to backup your files before an OS reinstallation.. send me a PM.

Yo I had some building tiles... then I had to reinstall my OS xD
I'm computer literate, that excuse doesn't work for me. It's called a backup bro.
Backup to what my ass?
CD, DVD, flash drive, external hard drive, online storage... pick your poison.

Calm down, it was more to the fact I couldn't access my files... and pure lazyness, Besides I lost a couple buildings, a shitty character I was working on, and some old art I already gave em, it wasn't a big deal. I'm keeping my stuff on dropbox now. Any questions?

I hate to side with eatcomics being too lazy to back up his shit but I never back up my OS either. I've never lost work this way however I get a feeling that It'll happen.....

My computer did once break with all my work on it but the HD was fine so I just switched the jumper and set it up as a secondary slave on another computer and got the files.

That was an offer for me to host 'em for you bro, didn't mean for it to sound harsh.

Well thanks man, but hopefully I will get my server up for backups one of these days....

Boy, some of us have other obligations besides coding and smoking.

I'm sorry if Luke is in a band, Chris enjoys vacationing to florida, Gino sucks his own dick, and Peter... well he does art so I'll excuse him. (And I have scholastic bowl/am newly elected president of robotics club/have friends/tend to get in trouble a lot at home)

I'm going to work on the editor now. Seeing as how science fair is over (Got sixth place btw) 102%, and its a double grade so a 204 out of 200. That's what I get for doing no work and putting it off until the last second ;)

I was trying to give out the impression that we've secretly been working......You kinda fucked that one up :|

Jesus. It's starting to sound like our Private Development forum in here. :shock:

1) Kick Peter's bitch ass off the team.
2) Pull Gino's dick out of his mouth.

The art has to come from some place, and he may not be Pritam, but he's close ;)

I'm afraid he choked and died, the team is twice as productive now :)

Some random and probably not very interesting videos of the engine that I never put on youtube

A few of them you might have already seen. Don't expect anything interesting but.....Heh I can't be as epic as we'd all like.












EDIT:
A nice little preview of some new art work by Peter:
