31   Re: Birthday wishes
I'm 25 since last October.

32   New Javascript Engine
I've been gaining some valuable Javascript experience with some recent unrelated projects and knocked up a pretty nice Javascript Engine
http://www.bloo.us/javascript/tileengine/
Lets see how far it gets. I'm going to make this engine Open Source.

33   Re: AJAX - A Viable Option?
Recently i've come across something called "Reverse Ajax" which makes Ajax more viable. The idea is, instead of querying the server every X seconds, you query the server once, the server holds the query without timing out and returns only when it has something to return.
I'm already starting on this.

34   Re: We're back (almost)
Got the same error.

35   Re: We're back (almost)
Looks great, can't go wrong with blue.

36   Re: Bankrupt
Yeah, i had two players for sale, but they didn 't sell.

37   Bankrupt
That's it for me, no more Loose RS. It was fun but i got a little tired of it after a while. Made it to III, that's my personal record.

38   How do bratwurstbots work?
I think breaking the captcha is not an easy task. Other than that it's simple to write some javascript to manipulate the form. Some people use human computation to break captchas, that is, they hire people to manually enter them or have web surfers break them without knowing.
I saw this stuff on a google tech talk: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-8246463980976635143&q=tech+talk+human+computation&hl=en

Maybe we should have a contest to see who can write the best captcha breaker for YOB, although i'm not sure where i would start.
Making a strong captcha sounds like fun as well, maybe we can have a contest on that instead.

39   Dark Resurrection (Screenshots) updated: september 5th 2006
Amazing stuff, really top notch. The furniture and the houses have a really great feel to it.
It would be nice to have a page up with all of these screenshots.

40   Happy birthday!
Happy birthday.
Too bad you're not getting that Wii.  Smiley

41   Why do we lie to ourselves?
I guess productivity really becomes an issue and once you reach a certain age, i've just been noticing this. I've never really cared much about it but i have much less time than i used to. Two days ago i was at a Microsoft workshop on Office Sharepoint Server 2007/InfoPath and at the end there was a drawing of 8 prizes for those involved. My name came up first and i had the choice of any of the prizes which included stuff like xbox games, pc games (age of empires III i recall), a book "how to take back your life", InfoPath 2003, etc.

I would love to play Age of Empires III but i know how much time it would take away from me so i decided on InfoPath 2003, which i already had.

Even though i like to think i have control over what i do at any time, the truth is i can make a good argument in favor of something i shouldn't be doing, so the best way is to avoid the circumstances where you'll be tempted into doing something that will harm your productivity in the first place.

42   Whose end is shittier?
That's impossible Ty, you're out of your mind.
You should make a documentary on this. Film a couple of scenes and play it back with a techno background.  Smiley

43   So many dead websites...
After progressing through my big task list i've come to:
...
- Make Javascript version of Latex Lab
- Make a page for my Lobby/Chat components
- Make the multiplayer Shining Force engine

So i have shining stuff on my third coming item, so there will be at least some news. The item before it, regarding the lobby is actually related. The shining stuff should be 1-2 weeks away assuming all goes as intended. I have so many projects i want to work on.
Anyway all the work i've been doing hasn't been for nothing. I think you guys would be impressed with my site's backend. It's all in C# .NET 2.0 with SQL2005. I actually have a site API. It's really something.

44   le II
Congratulations. I'm up to III myself. Smiley

45   Shining Fyre
I won as well. It was a tough season. If i can win this last game i'll auto-promote to III, but it's going to be hard with two of my midfielders out.
