hehe, i read slowly because i like to forget as much as possible so that when i re-read it's still somewhat 'fresh'... what is SINFEST? is it linked from hard's site? I followed sinfest off of slashdot's front page, actually. It's http://sinfest.net/ . Also hosted by those keen guys. You should sta...

Go read some sexylosers or something. that's one of my faves! damn, been waiting months for an update, tho. HARD is super-busy with RL i think. gonna haveto re-read the archive for the 3rd time, soon... :D Sexylosers is awesome. Read Sinfest, by any chance? Not nearly as graphic as sexylosers, but ...

How about this one? Watersports, anyone?

edit: Yeah, I went ahead and censored it. The original can be had at
moderated by popular demand, same for attachment- tank

iceman: ******* lighten up, dude. Go read some sexylosers or something.

Here's a pretty old redhat post:

Don't know if this helps or not, but you might try dynamically linking to pthread and see what happens.

About getting a box closer to a backbone, great, but who will pay? and In what country. US located box are not interesting for European because of the trans-atlantic lines. (and great distance) That's the hard part. Any idea how much a European box would cost these days? Just rented, possibly, or a...

I've always beleived google to be located somewhere in the west coast of the US. And I can ping them in 60 ms. But its a fake value, because I'm sure aa server in cali arent connected on such a fast pipe as google, ICMP packet are processed differently than TCP and UDP. -ph Mm, forgot to mention. G...

Now the question is, could the bright mind who compiled the list take the job to fix a few of the items. Lets say the ones within his reach, cause even the devil his bound by the speed of light and other pestive nuisances.... ;) -ph Would love to, with the minor problem that AA is already beyond my...

I'm not really trying to start trouble, so I'll back off now. Really, not trying to start trouble.

Make sure DEDICATED_IDLE is set to 0 in settings.cfg to keep the server from exiting after it is idle for a while. It's set. Maybe there's another problem? Is there a log somewhere I can look at? edit: nevermind, I figured it out. ;) I still have a /etc/armagetron directory from when I had mandrake...

Hmmm, is it possible to connect in spectator mode so we can watch, and possibly heckle between rounds? ;) On another note, I just restarted the armagetronad server on my computer, apparently I need to fix some settings 'cause it keeps shutting down when players don't connect. ;( Anyways, for those o...

server side lag can't be solved by getting a better somputer, only a better server/more bandwidth for the server's connection. Respectfully disagree. ;) Server side lag can be caused by any of the following problems (and more that I haven't mentioned): 1. Bad scheduler. Running the server under Lin...

Don't know which is the problem, but have u tried switching to a raw console with CTRL+ALT+F1, login and do a killall -9 armagetronad? This way at least you will not have to reboot... I don't know if he's suffering this or not, but SDL does have a nasty habit of locking up X when it's running full ...

Blah, I don't want it if I have to give you my soul for it. What's wrong with having pride in your own work for a bit? Nothing at all. I don't mind leaving the "Written by tank" badge on there, what I mind is the "no redistribution" bit. Much of my own work for free software you...

Once I slap a written by tank sticker on it somehow, and work out the last design flaws you can have a copy of it as long as u dun remove the written by tank sticker & u don resdistribute it, ok? Not for me, then. Here you sit playing a game that's GPL, and posting on forums that are also GPL, ...

Mmm, I looked in there and didn't find quite what I was looking for. ;) I wound up copying some boilerplate init.d script for Mandrake 9.1 and adding the commands to it to make armagetronad work, with a pretty important caveat. Armagetronad, running in the --daemon mode, doesn't properly detach from...
