  • Computing: B (Unit 1: A, Unit 2: C)
  • Maths: B (Core 2: A, Stats: C)
  • English: B (Unit 1: A, Stats: C)
  • Physics: C (Electrons waves and photons: C, Practical: E)

I'm planning on querying some of those Cs (I distinctly remember having no problems on at least the computing exams), as well as the Physics Practical.

Also, an interesting fact for you: The music in OOT:3D isn't actually a direct rip of the original game's music, but fresh tracks that took a lot of working to make them sound like the originals. (Information taken from a recent Nintendo magazine)

If I were to try my hand at creating a Greasemonkey script for the site, what kind of features would you want to see in it?

Link included if you have no idea what Greasemonkey is.

Gold Prognosticus
I've started work on the script, so far it just tweaks the sidebar and index page to send game-related pages to Digibutter rather than Digi.vg. Next I'm planning on adding a filter for the old Digi smilies.

Remember that news post a while back about owners of the 3DS recieving 20 free games?
posted by Gold Prognosticus Aug 03 2011 17:17 GMT
- Like?

Well, I just recieved an email from Nintendo explaining the system in a little more detail.

In order to qualify for the free games, you need to visit the 3DS eShop at least once before 23:59 CET on August 11th. This registers your 3DS for the giveaway. On September 1st the first 10 games will then be made available to all registered consoles, with the second set of 10 being made available sometime by the end of the year.

There's also a video in the eShop at the moment that repeats all of this information if you want to hear it for yourself.

E74, one red light. This is the third time it's done this so far - the first time was several months back and I posted about it here, and the second was a week or two ago. Considering the short time between this and the last incident, I don't think our method of repairing it is going to be much use any more, meaning I'm gonna have to go out and buy a new 360 if I want to play any of my games.

At least I have all my PC/Wii/DS stuff still intact though.

Gold Prognosticus
Although I have a fair few games to play on PC and it's capable of running most of the new ones, eventually it's going to become obsolete - as it stands there aren't many more components compatible with my motherboard meaning I would need to buy an entirely now computer, which would be even more expensive than a new 360.

Got my hands on the latest version of Flash a little while ago and wanted to make something for it. First version will feature an animated Tippi and an auto-updating status icon for the Digi TF2 server, and in future versions I will include a feature that will allow the backround to be changed and Tippi to be replaced through an easy checking system, should Francis decide to bring back the changing backgrounds of Old Digi. Expect a first sample within the week, provided there are no setbacks.

*inb4 this never gets finished or never gets implemented into the site*

Edit: Also, this is not the secret project that I was going on about before.

And yes, Meet the Medic was indeed awesome. I only wonder what they'll end up doing for Meet the Pyro.

Imageshack deleted it, archive.org never stored it, Google Images returns nothing useful and neither of my computers has it. I'm going to look through my old backup DVDs when I get a free moment, but if any of you happen to know where I could find the avatar I would be grateful.

Also, I find it amusing that a Google Images search for Light Prognosticus returns a Youtube video of my avatar (with an ugly text banner across the front of it) before the LP itself.

If that conversation took place in the cbox it's understandable that I wouldn't have seen it, since you guys all seem to be on there primarily when I'm asleep or doing other things. If it's a board post somewhere then I must have missed it.

So this week I only had Wednesday and Thursday in school. Next week I have school all week starting from Tuesday, then the week after that I start study leave for my AS exams. Granted there are still some revision lessons which may or may not be compulsory, and I'm not sure if we have to return to school after our exams are complete, but that's still a lot less school than I was expecting.

I decided to whip up a map system for it that updates in real-time. Use the variables id for map choice (just leave this on 1, the only other map at the moment is a 5x5 dev map) and scale for the size of the image (default is 4) in the URL to customise the image.

This doesn't necessarily mean I'm gonna start working on the game itself again, but I am considering it.

That's cool. I am doing something similar using Google Maps http://digibutter.nerr.biz/bitlands/
