-DSG- YoYo Games has failed me.

Posted by DSG on Feb. 28, 2013, 7:33 p.m.

I just got back from an interview with an alumni from Harvard :o

So, consider this, before anything else:

- I didn't crop up enough money at the time to even pay for the application (Nor have they bugged me about paying for it)

- I don't remember even requesting …

Taizen's Crappy Resume

Posted by Taizen Chisou on Feb. 28, 2013, 9:25 a.m.

Something I’ve always wanted to do is run my own game development studio. Working in the independent video game development world as a hobby just isn’t cutting it, and I want to make it into a career. I aim to attain a four-year degree, and then a degree in business, …

How many of you use Skype?

Posted by melee-master on Feb. 27, 2013, 4 a.m.

I know FSX does but that's it. Would there be any interest in a 64D group Skype chat? I do that with other online communities I'm involved in and it's great.

Streaming Super Smash Bros. Melee

Posted by melee-master on Feb. 26, 2013, 7:09 p.m.

Unfortunately I can no longer live up to my username because yesterday was the first time I played this game in years… but I'm having fun! Going through all the event matches to unlock Final Destination in a few minutes.

Well, I've been (relatively) busy with a few things since my last blurb of a blog. One thing I was meaning to share but never got around to was my gif workflow. I basically copied it from various people online but it works nicely:

'Unlimited' internet...

Posted by Astryl on Feb. 25, 2013, 3:44 a.m.

Last month, our national ISP announced their plan to put all entry-level and higher broadband connections onto a 'soft cap' system.

This basically gives us 10GB of full-speed internet, and once that's gone, we have 'prioritized' internet access. Meaning that priority is given to the people who haven't used up …

Not much has happened since my last blog, I've been doing school work and being bored for the most part.

I haven't posted a blog in a while about Credence Filter because I decided to redo the graphics, because I didn't like the old ones. I decided, while …
