Title: "What If" Discussion
Post by: pimathbrainiac on June 25, 2013, 02:50:51 pm
You know when you're talking to someone, and you think: "What if I didn't meet this person?"

Or you are on Omni, and you think: "What if I didn't discover Omni?"

Discuss your "What If"s here.

There would be many in my case that I thought about over the years (or that some others might have thought):

"What if the Nordiques had stayed in Quebec City for one more season?"
I wondered that before but I saw it in this video
(which is a spin-off from a 2010 NHL ad)
Also this text is a fictional story of what might have happened if the team had stayed in Quebec City beyond 1995 (it ends up leaving in 1998 instead) http://www.nordiquespreservation.com/whatif.html
NOTE: That husky logo on the page was officially supposed to happen in 1995-96 (although with slightly different colors), but they never got the chance to use it. But yeah, some people wonder if the team would have won the stanley cup in 1996 if they stayed (and if Patrick Roy would have been traded to them)


"What if Omnimaga had never re-opened?"
Something I thought around 2010 when the TI community kinda "revived". When Omnimaga shutted down for real in 2008, the entire TI community reached an all-time low activity. In March 2008 I remember that United-TI was even less active than it was in 2010 and 2011, despite most Omnimaga members having migrated there. Eventually, in August 2008 the site was revived due to high demand (although the old posts only returned 3.5 years later). The strong stance against hostility on Omni kinda convinced some people on other sites to migrate here until things calm down elsewhere, rather than leaving the community entirely, which might have helped reviving the community (since many Omni users frequents other sites). Around when Omni re-opened, the community was in terrible shape and the 2008 POTY had no Z80 entry. However, there are chances that Ndless and Axe played a bigger role (or one as big) than this.


"What if Ticalc.org had never opened at all?"


"What if Ndless would have never been possible at all?"


"What if Axe had never arrived?"


And one that I didn't think about but I thought the following vid was funny.
"What if Halo was made by Nintendo?"

Did you actually join on the old Invisionfree (or Zetaboards) site before it closed? Or did you happen to sign up here then forgot the URL or your password? I know that in May 2009 we lost one day of posts once so maybe as a coincidence you joined then :P

The only other account deletions that could have occured are permabanned accounts (which were deleted completely from 2008 to 2011), false spambot positives or the April 2012 data loss (1 day of posts)

It might definitively have been a new account, since your profile shows many posts from the first days after joining. :P

I seriously often wonder "What if I never knew about the game ?", because I find quite weird to react now to some sentences where some words are pronounced, and I often wonder "how would I have reacted if I didn't know about the game ?".

Also, what if my parents gave me a GameBoy with Pokemon on it when I asked for it when I was young ?
-> No will to program (because no motivating project)
-> No Pokemon Topaze
-> No Hayleia on Omnimaga (or maybe just testing other's programs but not programming myself)
-> Still no idea for a job

What if I had gotten a graphing calculator or computer to program way back in the 90's?

When I was 7-8 I got my NES (it was one year before it was discontinued, but games were still being sold and all and people still played it), the first game I got was Super Mario Bros 3. Only a few months after playing I started getting interest in creating games. However, I had no clue how they were made and I was almost a decade off from when I would finally have the chance to create any. As a result, since I couldn't resist with my creativity, I just drew rough drafts of SMB levels on paper (mainly the line forming the terrain, then blocks, enemies and ? blocks without much details). I did the same when I discovered RPGs a few years later, drawing maps on paper (rough drafts again), but also writing down every magic spell and damage they can cause.

Then I stopped drawing maps and got the idea to role-play with LEGO figurines and a small calculator for damage calculations, until I gave up on LEGO's. I bet that I still have a few of those maps somewhere, but sadly, I threw away some of my older notes from the late 90's, so I would most likely never be able to recreate any of those "games" in digital format.

Had I kept the ones from 1997, there might have been a Legend of Mana series for calcs at one point, planned and named before Square-Enix even released their own Legend of Mana game. :P

What if I never started coding in the first place?
Higher grades, No robotics, and a very unhappy life full of work and study (the only things I would be able to do).

What if I hadn't randomly typed ticalc in the url entry bar, and let auto-complete do the rest?
No Axe, no calc programming, no Omni D:

Well, good news, both those things happened. I started programming Java (I want(ed) to be a backend programmer, so I haven't learned the Swing libraries yet) about a year before I discovered ticalc. That was around when Axe got POTY (I think, maybe it was its feature), so I looked into it. Googled Axe, found the thread here. Lurked. Got an account later last year for help. Stayed. Started VVVVVV. Lost the game. Did a bunch of school. Got on break. Picked back up level design for VVVVVV. Started my Contest #10 entry. Made this thread. Posted in this thread.

Post by: Keoni29 on June 26, 2013, 11:18:05 am
I am not sure how I got here. I was programming in basic and for some reason I discovered the AXE manual. It seemed too good to be true at first.
Title: Re: "What If" Discussion
Post by: Streetwalrus on June 26, 2013, 11:34:41 am
I found Axe and Omni thanks to KinderMoumoute's tut which I found while looking for an ASM tut. I coded stand alone for two years before joining Omni in september.

Post by: DJ Omnimaga on June 26, 2013, 05:14:49 pm
@Pimath back when I started doing calc stuff, we didn't have that kind of browser feature, sadly, so to find calc sites I just googled calculator games in English and French then found some random personal sites. I didn't realize there was such a large community of programmers online, but I knew that certain people published games online, because I heard about TI-Graph Link software and I found it strange that so many calc games at school were in English. It took me 2 years before joining forums, though, because I only visited calc sites to find ASM libs and games.
Title: Re: "What If" Discussion
Post by: blue_bear_94 on July 27, 2013, 06:24:24 pm
What if I never found out about Minecraft?
Then I'd be programming on the calc more, and reading random stuff. And I'd get better grades, and wouldn't have invented NCS.

What if I obeyed my 8th-grade math teacher's instructions not to program on the school calcs?
Then I'd have programmed the z80 calcs anyway, just with less experience at the beginning.

What if TI decided to use a 68k or ARM processor and put more Basic-usable RAM in the CSE?
Then I wouldn't be griping about it as much.

What if TI lost favor from most students and teachers?
Casio would rule, and the first graphing calc that I'd have received would have been a Casio.

What if Axe had never been invented?
People would be using Assembly, or someone would have written a compiler for some other language into z80.

What if TI never invented the Nspire?
No Ndless, no Nspire on the title bar, more vibrant 68k community, no noobs griping about it... The list ever goes on.

What if Omni had never re-opened?
I'd be on Cemetech.

There wouldn't be as many ASM coders nor 84+ game ports tho, because ASM coders would be forced to learn a new ASM or C languages, and most 68K ASM/C coders are gone D:. I would actually have prefered an EZ80.

Post by: ben_g on July 28, 2013, 06:22:34 pm
The biggest 'what if' of my life is:
What if I hadn't skipped a year in elementary school?
If I didn't do it, I had been in an other year in highschool most of elementary school, so I would have been in the class with different people, while:
 - Someone of my class first got me interested in programming (on the 84+). If I didn't knew him, I probably wouldn't programm.
 - Someone of my class started a computer game project with me after we learned to use game maker in school. Without this, I probably wouldn't have been programming games (on the computer) after that.
 - Someone I met because of someone in my class got me into going out. Without him, I might have had no life.
 - I discovered most of my hobbies from people I have been in the class with.
And most importantly: I would have completely different friends, and because everyone is influenced a lot by his friends, my life would most lickely be very different. But how would it have looked like? That, I'll never know.

What if I had been born in 1991 instead of 1997?
By the time I reach high school, it would have been 2005, instead of 2011.
In 2005, Omnimaga was four years old and had never closed.
I would have been a member of United-TI.
The math checklist wouldn't have listed the Nspire as a possibility.
Being 22, instead of 16, by now, I would have lost interest in programming.

Well, I guess I wouldn't have been in the community, as over ticalc i found calc progs and then i also wanted to make awesome ones and joined cemetech

I would still have joined. The first calc sites I ever found were GFox83, Planète TI-83 and Le Monde de la TI-83. Ticalc.org had no archives anymore at the time so I didn't bother much about it until their archives re-opened. Plus I started making games a few months before visiting calc sites anyway.
I would have been a member of United-TI.

You would even have been admin! O.O (sort-of, on April 1st 2005)


Another one:

What if I had gotten my own computer one year earlier?
-I might have moved on to Visual Basic 6.0 dev, since the year before I got a computer I was making games for school projects and the teacher was handing copies of VB6 at the end of school year.
-I might have gotten an easier time learning ASM since I was still not that used to high level languages. Back then, it was impossible to program ASM without regular computer access.

What if i had 8961 more posts?
I still wouldn't be the top poster.

What if this wasn't my 40th post?
I wouldn't be l33t!

What if I didn't play Minecraft?
I'd probably have written more code and have less friends.

What if I wrote TI-83 code instead of TI-82 code?
I'd have a positive download count!

Something rather significant, for me.

What if I were religious.

This is something that interests me, because I actually already know the answer. But it's not the answer one would expect given my location and the surrounding culture. If I were to follow a religion, I am most certain I would be Taoist. Which is... Weird given the fact that I grew up in a Roman Catholic family and live in a predominately Protestant Christian region of the US. Taoism is virtually unheard of in the US, whereas the Abrahamic religions are very dominant.

It's odd, to say the least.

Same for me, What if I wasn't already too young when they wanted me to skip a class in elementary school ? I would have skipped a class, I would have met people I didn't and I would not have met people I did. How would my life be ?? I think I'd still be programming, this has to do with my parents, not my relations at school, but maybe I would have made more friends, I'd be getting out more often and I would be programming a lot less.

Also with your TI-80, you could experience the speed of 84+CSE program editor scrolling before other people. :P i never coded for it, though, because I was too used to the freedom I had on the 83+. (Getkey, pics, output, more drawing commands, RAM, fast Disp scrolling), ASM libs)

Nope. It was released for families who couldn't afford the more expensive 82 at the time, uses a proprietary CPU that runs at 980 KHz (even slower than the TI-81) and although it has slightly more RAM and commands than the 81 (such as For(), Then, Else, End), it lacks some that the 81 had and it's several times slower. It also breaks easier because it's made of really cheap plastic. Just bending the calc a bit or leaving it under a stash of 6 calcs for a while is enough to mess up the LCD permanently or worse.
