Gaming Discussion / Re: Your best video game pickups.
« on: September 19, 2014, 10:02:26 pm »
Every time i see this thread, I think it is asking about video game pick up lines.


About 6 years ago I bought a N64, 2 controllers, Mario 64, Mario Party 1, Pod Racing, 2 baseball games, and 3 driving games for $28.
Still play it all the time. People go around having sex for dates. My girlfriend and I fight in Mario Party as dates. I prefer my dates better ^.^

If you have a tri-wing, it will work too. Just don't screw and unscrew with it too often or it will strip.

I'd like to give a thank you to each and every one of you. Beyond helping me with my assignment, I feel I know each one of you at least a little bit better.

1)  I really started to fiddle with TI-Basic Sophmore year and I soon found Axe on TIcalc.org.  Failing miserably I went to google to get help and found Omnimaga.  I came in at a really bad time when Axe was umm... removed and I kinda really lost my temper before hearing all sides of the matter (or even introducing myself....).  I really felt like shit when I got many, many PM's telling me that I was out of line and why.  Even though I was being [yelled] at for my behavior, it wasn't aggresive.  Everyone sent them telling me what I did wrong and why it was wrong. It was informative. I grew deep respect for many members, such as SirCmPwn for their way of writing, that literally inspired empathy and a cool head.  I felt bad, but people were still welcoming towards me.  This kindness and empathy is what made me realize that Omnimaga was a family.  Even though members would leave, for a short time or forever, it was because it was their time to leave such as a son/daughter leaving their home.  I needed a family outside of my own, and I had finally found one.  I may not always be around any more, but I still hold what I have found here very close to my heart.

2) Yes, I have noticed that there are large occurrences.  Such as runners, MLP fans, cubers, etc.

3) I love the color scheme of Omnimaga :3. Cemetech seems a bit... detached to me. Also, on first visit, I was visited by some dick who told me my project was pointless and I should leave.  Beyond that... Again, this became a family to me.  I honestly kinda viewed DJ as a fatherly figure.

4) Yes. I feel Omnimaga has a resounding main goal. Perhaps its not tangible, but to help people and support them is definitly a big goal.  Secondary to that, I would say it is programming.  However, those two tend to be intertwined.

5) I may have been away for quite a while, and probably will be again, I feel like you all are really friends.  And again, what I said about DJ.

6) Very much so.  Coding, no matter the language, shares a sort of essence. The language and syntax may be different, but the concepts, such as loops and all that, stay the same.

7) I love the peanuts :P

8 ) United States, Indiana

HBJ asked people not to read other's posts
No, I just don't want them read until they have submitted theirs.  That way they aren't swayed by what they read.
Its fine to read them :)

Miscellaneous / Quick Survey About You and Omnimaga.
« on: November 06, 2013, 04:09:02 pm »
Hey everyone, I hope you're having a good day so far.

In a recent essay for English Class, I wrote an essay about my experience in a "discourse community"
Spoiler For Spoiler:
"A discourse community' is a group of people who share a set of discourses, understood as basic values and assumptions, and ways of communicating about those goals. Linguist, John Swales defined discourse communities as 'groups that have goals or purposes, and use communication to achieve these goals'" -Wikipedia

Anyways, we've been assigned a follow-up essay about the communities as a whole and include views of the other members as well.  If you wouldn't mind, I request that you reply with answers to the questions, and not look at others' until you have submitted yours.  (Feel free to send as a PM if private, or ignore questions)


1) How did you first learn about Omnimaga and what aspect influenced you to stay?

2) Do you feel as if we have similarities outside of programming naturally. If so, what are they? (i.e. MLP fans)

3) For what reason(s) do you frequent Omnimaga over other sites like Cemetech or TIPlanet? (Or vise-versa)

4) Do you consider the community of Omnimaga to have a main goal(s)? (if so, what are they?)

5) How do you feel your relationship is with other members?

6) Do you find that Omnimaga (and calc programming) has helped you in the outside world?

7) What is your favorite inside joke/lingo?  (i.e. Holy Necropost Batman!  or Welcome peanuts etc.)

8 ) What country are you from?

If you have any questions or ideas for new questions, feel free to ask or let me know :)

Computer Programming / Re: MatLab
« on: October 08, 2013, 05:20:01 pm »
Yeah, I use it a couple times a week at Purdue.  My teachers were amazed when I showed them a 'for loop'...
Its UI really sucks, but the whole thing isn't too bad.

Opps, and thanks!  I am notorious on starting something and never finishing if it takes longer than a week. (I just get caught up in life so easily)

"Do you ported Pkmn's sprites from menu?"  I don't understand what you are trying to say?


EDIT:  I added a new Weazly.  Its a hard one for a 16x16 sprite

I had thought of it, and it means death >:D

Thanks, it was a bit tricky to get the rotation matrix to work right, but then I realized I could transpose it and do row swaps.  Its rather simple over all, so I think I'll definitely need to rework it to get other objects in there.  Shouldn't be too hard, just need to think of a good way to do it :P.

Elaborate. What kind of awesome ideas are you going to implement in this game?

I'm not 100% sure yet.  I have econ class for 90 min 2 times a week. That's when I have time to work on it :P.
I think I'll be adding some kind of holes, bags that can fill the holes, or crush you/enemies.
The bags may also be like the blocks on Portal_Prelude where the hold down a button.  (With the obvious complication o gravity)
