Red said he couldnt get one

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 11:25 AM)

Also I still have to figure out how to set up our e-mail accounts on the new host.

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 08:19 AM)

As soon as I figure out how to restore it. Sorry, I know I said it'd be done by now, but I didn't expect to have to put up with this DNS crap and other issues that popped up.

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM)

So when's the black theme coming back??

@  Uncle Ben : (24 July 2015 - 07:56 AM)

"Should"

@  furrykef : (24 July 2015 - 07:27 AM)

That DNS took longer to propagate properly than I thought it would. *Now* we should be back for good, though.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 08:48 PM)

Or it might be because Bluehost *finally* got around to that server wipe (one week after we'd asked for it) and that wiped out our DNS settings. I'm not sure which and I don't really care. In any case, we've severed our last ties with Bluehost, so this will not happen again.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 08:08 PM)

Looks like Bluehost yanked our DNS since our hosting account expired. That's why the site went down a while ago. But as you can see, it's fixed now.

@  Misk : (23 July 2015 - 04:55 PM)

No, they do not.

@  furrykef : (23 July 2015 - 04:27 AM)

The goggles do nothing?

@  Misk : (22 July 2015 - 05:50 PM)

My eyes.

@  furrykef : (22 July 2015 - 12:24 PM)

Looks like forum uploads might have been broken since last night. That should be fixed now too.

@  furrykef : (22 July 2015 - 01:33 AM)

Heh, whoops! Server went down for a few mins when I borked the config. Looks like it's back up now.

@  Uncle Ben : (21 July 2015 - 09:09 PM)

It looked like a napkin

@  ILOVEVHS : (21 July 2015 - 09:04 PM)

Fan-fuckin-tastic.

@  furrykef : (21 July 2015 - 08:25 PM)

As for the beaver picture while the forum was down, I think Tim drew it. On a napkin.

@  furrykef : (21 July 2015 - 08:24 PM)

No kiddin' about that "Finally!", Shadow. I am *so mad* at Bluehost for never responding to our support ticket. I submitted it early Friday morning and they *still* haven't answered it!

@  Uncle Ben : (21 July 2015 - 06:37 PM)

Maybe he did that himself

@  Shadow : (21 July 2015 - 05:25 PM)

Say, who made the cute picture of Beaver Chief?

Yes, but you are ALSO wrong. The games in the world of Tron are the same games played in the arcade, so even when it's just a demo, real programs (Or Isos) are put into the arena to go against each other. So, technically, since Tron had an arcade, it could work.

I guess you're right...but at the same time the world of Tron would have to work a lot differently than the world of Wreck it Ralph. Don't get me wrong, it would be cool to see them in it, but I don't think it would happen...

Well...we saw a Beholder in the villians' meeting, which is very geeky. Perhaps Ralph unleashed the Great Old One? That would be awesome!

Actually...that would not surprise me. I just saw a comic series were the Great Old One raised hell on Eberron and the worlds of TMNT, G.I.Joe, and Transformers.

There's just one thing that bugs me about Wreck-It Ralph:

Voices.

I am so, so tired of big budget studios going for celebrity or ordinary guy voices instead of professional voice actors. People who actually know how to sound like, y'know, cartoon characters. Think of all the great voices you've heard in cartoons over the years: Homer Simpson, Bart Simpson, Prof. Farnsworth, Zoidberg, Bugs Bunny, Elmer Fudd, Space Ghost (the Coast to Coast version)... I could go on forever. Even Tim Allen did a great job as Buzz Lightyear, but eventually some exec thought "celebrity voice + epic movie = big bucks" and they stopped bothering finding ones who actually sound like cartoon characters. You look at the Villains Anonymous (whatever they call it) scene and all the cartoony voices are from people other than Ralph -- you know, the guys the film isn't actually about. I guess they feel the need to give an ordinary voice to an "everyman" personality, but it isn't as if I'm unable to relate to everyman characters like Philip J. Fry who actually do have cartoony voices.

I'm sure I'll see it anyway, but come on, guys, is it so hard to make cartoons that are actually like cartoons?

BTW, this thought struck me the other day: how many kids are not gonna know any of the classic video game references? Like when the ghost turns blue -- will kids know where that comes from? And will they have the slightest idea who Q*bert is?

...wow, what a depressing thought...well, pac-man may be more recognizable, since it's been ported EVERYWHERE. But yeah, some of the others like Q-bert will be lost...

I doubt they'll recognize Q*bert, but Pac-Man even has a new cartoon on the way....I think they'll get the ghost reference.

This sounds... a bit less than promising. Who knows, maybe they made it work, though.

Well, this is eye-popping for hard core Pac-Man fans since ghosts are Pac-Man's enemies.

This... is... so... wrong (referring to the ghost concept, not to Wreck-It Ralph).

Oh God, my Pac-Man fanfic I had in my head made more sense than that.

Yeah...that cartoon's gonna be a bit off for many. Especially since they practically deaged Pacman since the LAST cartoon series he was in he was married with kids. (Yes...I actually saw that cartoon.)
